Gambling Stones - Chaebol's Wife

Chapter 49 Afternoon Tea

Mrs. Fangshu wore a light apricot-colored dress today, which made the two floating blue flower jade bracelets on her wrists extraordinarily crystal clear. She gently lifted the lid of the paper box and saw the new HERMES silk scarf inside. There was a smile on their delicate and young faces, "It's rare that Brother Huan has a heart."

"As long as mother likes it." Xu Huanzhi's smile was as gentle and elegant as ever, but Mrs. Fang Shu, who was good at reading people's faces, still saw something strange, and her heart tightened immediately, and the smile was slowly withdrawn.

At this moment, the waiter brought black tea and refreshments, and put them lightly in front of the two of them.

After the waiter and Lin Yan both left.

Xu Huanzhi looked at Mrs. Fang Shu silently for a while, and then said slowly, "Mother, how is Qi Ruo these days?"

Mrs. Fang Shu smiled a little reluctantly, took a sip from her teacup and asked, "Why did you suddenly ask about Qi Ruo? Children are not sensible. I sent her to Japan to relax."

"Is that so..." Xu Huanzhi slowly folded his hands together, and began to feel for his knuckles, "It's okay, Qi Ruo is not young, but still acts recklessly, how can I rest assured that she will marry someone."

Mrs. Fang Shu felt a little relieved. Xu Huanzhi didn't pursue what happened to Qi Ruo last time, and even helped her cover a fig leaf. She was satisfied. "Qi Ruo is still a little younger and not very sensible. You, an older brother, should take good care of her and teach her a lesson."

Xu Huanzhi moved the corners of his mouth, smiled but did not answer, but instead brought up a topic, "Girls are indeed troublesome sometimes, and Su Fei hasn't let me worry recently."

Mrs. Fang Shu hurriedly asked, "But what happened? I think the girl is quite well-behaved, not a troublemaker."

"It's not that Su Fei caused trouble, but something happened to provoke her. Somehow, I got wind that someone was offering a reward for Su Fei's life on the road." Xu Huanzhi tapped the table lightly with his fingertips.

Mrs. Fang Shu's forehead was soaked with cold sweat, she took another sip from her teacup, and said, "How did you get into such a disaster? How could such an innocent girl have such a big enemy. "

"I'm also surprised. But I haven't found out who made the hidden flower yet, but I got insurance, and Su Fei lost a strand of hair..." Xu Huanzhi picked up the teacup and drank the first tea silently. After taking a sip of tea, the corners of her eyes slightly raised to look at Mrs. Fang Shu, "Mother should know that I don't have a good temper."

Mrs. Fang Shu almost felt that the wool pad she was sitting under had turned into silver needles, which made her restless every second.

After a few seconds of silence, Mrs. Fang Shu finally laughed and said, "Brother Huan is really smart. I think, if you say this out loud, no one will dare to trouble Miss Su."

"Mother has more knowledge and experience than Huanzhi, so it's okay if mother said so." Xu Huanzhi once again restored his previous perfect smile, and then he didn't seem to care much and said, "By the way, last time The starlet who pestered his father had a miscarriage and was hospitalized yesterday, so he must have no energy left to play tricks."

Seeing that Xu Huanzhi revealed the matter lightly and cleverly, and bought herself a big favor, Fang Shu felt relieved again, and laughed, "Brother Huan has a very good personality and is also extremely capable. Your father really It's time to rest easy."

"Mom has won the award. The tea here is not bad, mother should try it."

Xu Huanzhi picked up the silver knife and fork, and slowly cut the sponge cake filled with raspberry sauce. The black cherries on the top of the cake slid down onto the white porcelain plate with a light ding-dong sound.

Assistant Chief Appraiser?
Su Fei looked at the letter of appointment that Xu Huanzhi gave her, her expression twitched a little. What does this mean?
"Your three senior brothers are all part-time appraisers in Xu's, so it's natural for you to be called an assistant." Xu Huanzhi explained casually, as if it was only natural to bring his girlfriend into Xu's.

Su Fei thought for a while that although she was studying for a master's degree under Qin Cong, she was actually working for the Xu family. After all, more than half of the jewelry identified in Qin Cong's appraisal room came from the Xu family.

"Then do I need to go to work?"

"No need, if you work at Qin Cong's place, it's equivalent to going to work. Oh, and the car keys."

"There is still a car?" Su Fei's eyes widened in horror.

"Well, it's just a Chevrolet." Xu Huanzhi glanced at Su Fei, seeing her nervously looking at the car keys in her hand, he couldn't help smiling, stroked her forehead and comforted her, "Qin Cong also has a car, but He finds it inconvenient, so it’s useless.”

"But I don't know how to drive." Su Fei put the car keys back on the coffee table in embarrassment.

"There is a driver. Well, starting tomorrow I may be busy with the launch of new jewelry, so I can't keep taking you to and from school." Xu Huanzhi smiled apologetically.

"It's okay... Am I going to take the car tomorrow?" Su Fei was still a little overwhelmed.

"Well. That driver, uh, was my comrade in arms when I was in the army. You don't have to be too nervous."

Comrades?

Su Fei became even more nervous.

Su Fei, who got up early the next day, did not see Xu Huanzhi, and Qin Rui sat alone at the dining table holding a milk bottle to drink, it seemed that the two of them were a little uncomfortable in the morning without Xu Huanzhi .

"Good day, Sister Su."

"Day An Ruirui."

Su Fei also sat at the dining table, picked up a piece of bread, spread mayonnaise on it, and began to eat breakfast.

"Sister Su, brother Xu said you are going to school today, can you take me with you?"

"Okay, okay..." Su Fei hesitated a bit, if she brought Qin Cong's son to school, would there be scandals?

"Oye." Kid Qin Rui started cheering, dancing around the table.

Seeing Qin Rui's unusually excited expression and behavior, Su Fei suddenly had an extremely ominous premonition.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Su Fei went to open the door dazedly with a piece of bread in her mouth.

Standing outside the door was a tall man with a high nose bridge and small eyes. His complexion and eyebrows were rough, and he had short hair. When he saw Su Fei, he laughed, "Hi sister-in-law, my name is Zhuo Yang, I'm Huan Brother's comrade in arms."
