Apple doesn't fall far from the tree

Like she decided, Fu Ming left to London. Before leaving, she didn't contact anyone. Only her family was able to be in touch with her even after she reached London. She asked her family not to tell anyone about her location as well.

Wu Zexi was frustrated since she was not able to contact Fu Ming. There is going to be a selection for under 16 cyclist for Provincials from City T cycling club in two days.

She was sitting in her garden with the disturbed feeling. Her Mother Li Wuying patted her daughter Zexi and sat next to her. Soon her Father Wu Chin also joined.

Li Wuying spoiled her daughter very much. She couldn't stand Wu Zexi behind sad. She asked

" Xi Dear, why are you sad, I m seeing you like this for days now. Share it with mother, I will help you around."

Zexi's Little brother Wu Wuhan saw his entire family sitting in the Garden, joined them as well.

Zexi made herself look in pity state and said

"Dad, you know friend Fu Ming, I am trying to contact her, I am not able to. I kind of miss her. "

Her father responded, "Oh! isn't she your good friend." he asked his son

"Wuhan, You must be seeing her in your cycling club and your internship with her in Shen industries right"

Wuhan replied " As per my knowledge, I heard she had volunteered to quit from the Shen industries and left to Europe for some family business work"

Zexi said " what do you mean by she left to Europe, how come no one knows about it."

Wuhan said "Sister Zexi, Everyone in business circle knows about it because recently Shen Mingyu reshuffled his department heads, he announced it in that meeting."

Wu Chin spoke up, "Xi Dear, now you know why you are not able to contact her. relax and enjoy your weekend with us"

Wuhan had some work, so he left.

After he left Zexi suddenly held his father's hand and asked

"Dad, how long I should wait to be a part of the Wu industries. Since Yingjie refused, there is no one but me. Wuhan is also very young. Can you please speak to Grandfather"

Her Mother spoke now,

"Chin, I really don't understand both Wu and Li families. They are not willing to handover the business to us or or kids. Father Li and Father Wu are waiting for a girl who was dead 12 years ago. This is completely insane."

Chin replied " Wuying, What do you mean by handover the business. Already we are only taking care of it. You are taking care of Li business group and I'm taking care of Wu business"

Wuying replied,

"Chin, Board members are not listening to our decision because we don't own the shares. So can you please talk to your Father Wu about it"

"Wuying, I can only try for our Zexi sake" He said and left the Garden. Only Mother and daughter were seated.

Wuying asked her daughter

" Zexi, don't worry about Fu Ming. You have one less competition to enter Shen family. I have already spoke to few people to pressure Father Shen for Mingyu Marriage. I have asked Grandpa Li to speak to Elder Shen. Don't lose your focus. you should get into Shen Family at any cost. "

Zexi is actually terrified of her mother methods, she knows her mother never shows any kind of Mercy when she sets her mind on something. But Wuying loves Zexi more than her son Wuhan, She will do anything for her daughter. Not only in looks, but Zexi is also very similar to her Mother.

Zexi replied

" Okay Mother, I m working towards that. But I m not able to get closer to Him. I will meet Grandma Li to set up some casual meeting with Shen Mingyu"

Grandma Li is a very powerful women, she had deep connections with the underworld. She is not afraid of anything. Only thing that makes her listen is Grandpa Li. But she loves her granddaughter Wu Zexi.

Wuying asked Zexi,

"You know a lot of Wuhan school right, Since you do to of activities there. I heard from women's group that Shen Mingyu younger sister is also in the same school. Maybe if we find her, we can get to closer Mingyu through her"

Zexi was surprised " Really Mom, in Wuhans school. Do you know her name. I will try to find out"

"No Xi, I don't know. I can try to find out. No one talks about her in socialite groups. no one had seen her as well. But did you see anyone who might be Shen Mingyu's sister"

Zexi nodded her head and said " I haven't come across"

Wuying suddenly got an idea and told her daughter that she is going to talk to her husband and left as well.

Zexi was staring at the garden and felt empty inside. Even though she is Wu, Her Grandfather never gives her the Shares of Wu Family business as she wanted to hold authority.

On the other end. Grandma Shen took Ling to the nearby seat and gave her a cup of water.

Mingyu couldn't hold it inside anymore

"Grandma, Please tell me how do you know her"

"My dear Grandson, why are you so curious?

Ling dear should I tell him, What do you say?" She asked Ling.

Ling replied Grandma Shen

"No Mrs. Sun Lin, Let him be surprised. he played a lot with me in the name of surprises. So let him suffer, it his punishment."

"Hahahaha, Hilarious! Mingyu deserved it. you have proved that you are a granddaughter of Gao Tai." Grandpa Shen said.

Grandma smiled at her husband and said

"My dear husband, the truth is Apple doesn't fall far from the tree"

Everyone laughed, Mingyu didn't understand what's happening around. Everyone of family turned against him. Since it's very rare for the family to gather around and have fun conversation like this, he let them.

Father Shen entered the house and he spotted the fair girl with simple clothes but emitting a extraordinary aura around her. He remembered his best friend and missed him.

Mingyu didn't expect that his father will be home. His initial plan was to visit his father's house, show Ling to his Mom and grandpa s and leave. Now Ling is no where at his reach. Some or other from his family member is clinging to her.

Mingyu came forward

"Hello Father, This is my friend Gao Ling. She also works at our company. "

Ling bowed to Father Shen in a respectable manner and said hello to him.

With everyone's surprise, Father Shen came closer to Ling. Placed his hands on her shoulders and kissed her on her forehead saying

"God bless you my child" and he left inside to refresh.

Everyone was dumbstruck even the Elder Shen and his wife. No one has seen Father Shen like this.

Only Mother Shen was in tears since she knew how compassionate her husband is.
