After the whole network was blacked out, I made the boss the canary
Chapter 87 Dinner
The more Mrs. Fu listened, the more she felt it made sense, and she gave Zhou Yun an appreciative look.
Mother Fu cleared her throat and said:
"Well, even if they are children from poor families, they are not necessarily all bad. If my son likes them, there must be some extraordinary qualities that I haven't discovered."
"You guys stop talking. It's a rare opportunity for us to get together, so we should not make it like a lecture."
Some of the ladies rolled their eyes silently in private. Wasn't this "sermon scene" requested by Fu's mother herself? Now she is blaming them instead.
The others were also used to Fu's mother's behavior of always blaming others. Anyway, Fu's mother was generous, and the information and jewelry that slipped through her fingers were enough for them to use for a long time, so they were not very angry.
As usual, the ladies said some polite words to Fu Chaoge to smooth things over. Although Fu Chaoge didn't respond much, the atmosphere gradually became lively.
Only Chen Shu was excluded by Fu's mother, and the ladies also ignored her intentionally or unintentionally.
But who is Chen Shu? She was the winner of three major film awards in her previous life, and she even won the Best Actress award for her first film in this life. She has seen many verbal battles among wealthy families.
Chen Shu smiled and inserted herself into the topic accurately. With her sophisticated understanding of various jewelry and fashion trends, she quickly became a chatterbox with them. Many of them even asked her about their own suitable style on the spot and added her contact information.
Fu Chaoge, who was originally at the center of the crowd and was deliberately pursued by them, was squeezed out of the center of the crowd because he did not understand these topics.
But when Fu Chaoge looked at Chen Shuo who was at ease in the center of the crowd, he didn't feel lost. He was even a little glad that Chen Shuo attracted their attention and gave him some relief.
But Mrs. Fu was not happy. She felt that these ladies were too tactless. Although she said some nice words, anyone with a little savvy could tell that she was just speaking for the sake of politeness.
These people actually surrounded Chen Shuo and started talking!
Seeing that she was being ignored and Chen Shuo becoming the center of attention, Mother Fu clapped her hands unhappily:
"Okay, everyone, it's time for dinner. I know you guys are having a great time chatting, but why don't you stop for a moment and continue chatting after dinner?"
The other ladies were startled and found that they had been led astray by Chen Shuo without realizing it. However, his suggestions really touched their hearts, and they did not want to stay away even though Mother Fu showed obvious displeasure.
They looked at each other and silently moved away from Chen Shu, but one or two of them had already added Chen Shu's contact information. Those who didn't have time to add him talked to their familiar friends and asked her to send them Chen Shu's contact information later.
When Chen Shuo returned home and lay on the bed, he received a lot of friend requests. After counting the number, it just matched the number of people attending the party. Of course, this is a story for later.
At this time, Fu's mother was very satisfied with this. The scene seemed like Chen Shu was isolated by them.
Mother Fu said with a pleasant expression: "Come, child, sit over here."
Mother Fu pointed to the seat next to her. Because it was a large dining table and Fu Chaoge was the only male present, he could only sit on the other side of Mother Fu.
The position of Fu's mother's finger was opposite Fu Chaoge, so far that one had to shout at the top of his lungs to speak.
Fu Chaoge frowned slightly, afraid that Chen Shu would be bullied, but he didn't notice it for a moment, and just when he was about to refuse, Chen Shu pulled his sleeve.
Chen Shu smiled: "Okay."
Chen Shuo walked over quickly and sat down, as if he was completely unaware of Fu's mother's little thoughts.
Fu's mother thought that she should not favor one over another, so she pointed out the seats for everyone present. Without even considering who knew who, she pointed out the seats according to her own preferences and arranged people wearing clothes of the same color to sit together.
Fortunately, they have known each other for a long time, so there was no embarrassing situation where two people who disliked each other were forced to sit together.
Fu's mother deliberately pointed Zhou Yun to the position next to Fu Chaoge. Zhou Yun looked at Fu Chaoge shyly with a red face.
Because there are so many people, dinner will be served in separate plates. There is no need to pick up dishes from each other. Everyone can just eat from their own plate.
Fu Chaoge completely ignored her and lowered his head to concentrate on eating. Zhou Yun's eyes turned red with embarrassment.
Zhou Yun seemed to cast all her seductive glances at a blind man. She glanced around again. Although no one was looking here, Zhou Yun still felt that these people were secretly laughing at her for overestimating her own abilities.
Chen Shuo, on the other hand, seemed very peaceful. He ate with graceful posture and perfect etiquette while answering the questions that Fu's mother suddenly threw out.
Wine tasting, steak quality, celebrity fashion... were all within the scope of the examination. All of them were questions that Chen Shuo could not have answered in his original identity. Some questions were so tricky that even Zhou Yun might not be able to answer them, but Chen Shuo answered them fluently.
Finally, Fu's mother, who was unable to defeat Chen Shuo, snorted coldly and asked in a voice that only Chen Shuo could hear:
"You have a big plan. You have done so much to marry Fu Chaoge. Just give up. He is my son. I know him best. He will only marry a girl who is well-matched with him!"
Chen Shuo kept smiling: "You are joking. Fu Chaoge is an adult and he has the right to decide his own marriage."
"I'm his mother, how dare he disobey me?" Mother Fu couldn't control her voice.
Fu Chaoge vaguely heard something and looked up in confusion.
Mother Fu closed her mouth and chewed the beef as if she was gnawing on Chen Shu's meat.
Chen Shu smiled at Fu Chaoge and indicated that everything was fine.
Fu Chaoge trusted Chen Shuo and continued eating after getting the feedback.
After dinner, the ladies said goodbye and left with a look.
Fu Chaoge also wanted to say goodbye to Fu's mother, but when he was leaving with Chen Shu, Fu's mother stopped him:
"Wait, you're in such a hurry to leave after coming here so rarely?"
Fu Chaoge asked: "Is there anything else, mother?"
"I just had a chat with Chen Shu at the dining table. I was quite satisfied with her. However, there were many people at the table and it was difficult for me to ask too much. So I wanted to ask her to go to the study and get a good understanding of her situation."
Fu Chaoge looked at Chen Shu suspiciously, wanting to confirm whether things were as Fu's mother said. Chen Shu smiled and nodded:
"I did have a very pleasant chat with Mrs. Fu just now, and I am looking forward to having a more in-depth conversation with her."
Fu Chaoge looked carefully, after all, he knew how bad Fu's mother's temper was, until he confirmed that the statement was not a lie to reassure him.
So Fu Chaoge nodded: "I'll wait for you."
The implication behind this is that Fu Chaoge will back up Chen Shuo, and if things go wrong he will come down immediately and take Chen Shu away immediately.
Chen Shu felt warm in his heart and squeezed Fu Chaoge's hand: "Don't worry, I won't let myself suffer any loss."
