The Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO

Chapter 24 - Fu ChunHua Got Scolded

Fu Hua's mother organized this family banquet to make the old man happy. This was a family reunion after his recovery.

Grandfather Fu was happy to see his family members around him, but he didn't show it on his face, only his eating habits showed it. He ate his dinner heartily.

"Dad, eat more vegetables." Fu Juang suggested to Old Mr. Fu.

Fu Juang is the only daughter of retired Major General Fu. She is married but has no child.

"Mmm." Old Mr. Fu hummed in response as he picked more vegetables for himself.

Fu Hee smiled and wanted to contribute something, but Fu Lei pinched her.

'Ssss!' Fu Hee hissed in pain. "Why did you pinch me?." She asked her husband in a low tone.

"If you don't want to ruin father's appetite, then keep your mouth shut." Fu Lei whispered back to her in a commanding tone.

"That wasn't necessary." Fu Hee said in an annoyed tone.

"Fu Hee, what's wrong, you don't like the food? But you were the one that organized this dinner, how come you don't like the food?." Fu ChunHua asked.

Fu ChunHua is Old Mr. Fu's second daughter-in-law. She was married to Old Mr. Fu's second son, Fu Geming. And she was the mother to a son and a daughter.

Fu Hee and Fu ChunHua are not on good terms, and they always made trouble for each other, just like what Fu ChunHua is trying to do now.

As Fu ChunHua raised this question with a harmless smile on her face, all the family members at the dining table, turned to glance at Fu Hee.

'Stupid woman! You are trying to get me in trouble.'

With Fu ChunHua saying this, it would ruin Old Mr. Fu's mood if care wasn't taken.

Fu Hee organized a Family banquet to welcome the head of the Fu family back to the house, but she is making a fuss over the food she oversaw being made?

That was a useless excuse that Grandfather Fu would not tolerate. And if she didn't say anything good to counter what she said, this family banquet she organized, would be fruitless.

Seeing everyone's gaze on her, Fu Hee faked a chuckle as she replied immediately.

"ChunHua, what are you saying? I organized this banquet, so how can I be unhappy with it?." Fu Hee asked.

"But just now, your face was squeezed in a frown as if you are unhappy we are having a family time together after a long time." Fu ChunHua retorted back.

Grandfather Fu totally ignored them, so as other members of the family. They continued to eat their food and left the two women to sort themselves out.

"ChunHua, you really know how to joke. If you bite your tongue while eating, will you be able to keep a smile on your face for the next few seconds?." Fu Hee asked her with a taunting smile.

"You..." Fu ChunHua said with a frown, but she was cut off by Fu Hee's next words.

"Alright, don't make trouble and disrupt this peaceful dinner. Father likes to eat his meal in peace."

What Fu Hee meant was that she was making trouble and purposely wanted to ruin Old Mr. fu's dinner, since everybody knew he liked to eat in peace.

"Fu Hee, you know that is not what I mean!." Fu ChunHua said in a raised tone. She was so choked up with anger.

"Whether you mean or not, you have to stop arguing and eat." Fu Hee said to her with a smile.

Fu ChunHua was enraged and was about to scream at her when Old Mr. Fu dropped his chopsticks and he chewed the food in his mouth in silence.

The sound of his chopsticks making contact with the ceramic plate was loud and caused everybody's attention to be drawn to it.

"Enough!." Fu Geming said to his wife in an authoritative tone. His voice was neither loud nor too low.

Fu ChunHua respected herself and picked up her chopsticks to continue eating.

Fu Hua and Fu Yingpei exchanged glances before they continued eating.

It looks like the old man was about to erupt in anger, so the best way to savor the situation was to keep quiet.

Having swallowed the food in his mouth, Old Mr. Fu took some seconds off to glance at each person sitting at the dining table.

He watched their actions and took not of it. Then, his eyes rested on Fu Hee as he called out to her in a calm and steady tone, "Fu Hee."

Fu Hee was almost frightened, but she managed to keep her cool. She smiled as she dropped her chopsticks before looking at the old man.

"Yes, father." She answered with a warm smile.

"Next time if you want to organize a family banquet for me, ask for the opinion of the people you are inviting, so they know that they can't make trouble when they accept the invitation. Don't give an order, extend an invitation. I won't be angry if they don't honor it. But I will not tolerate it when they accept the invitation and come and make trouble for me, is that clear?." Grandfather Fu questioned with a peaceful look on his face.

"Yes, father." Fu Hee replied with a smile.

"As for those that are not happy with this banquet, forgive Fu Hee. But since you are here, enjoy the food and don't make trouble, otherwise, you can leave at once." Grandfather Fu said as he glanced at each member of the family.

After saying his piece, Old Mr. Fu picked up his chopsticks and continued eating, so as the rest of the family members. Initially, they paused with their food when he was speaking.

Fu ChunHua was the only very pissed, but she had no choice but to be quiet and continue eating.

She just heard it from the Old Man now, that if anybody made trouble, he would chase the person out of the house, so did she dare to make trouble? Of course, the answer was 'NO'.

Fu ChunHua had to swallow all her grievances and continue to eat.

As for Fu Hee, she was the happiest person in the dining room. She was happy that her enemy Fu ChunHua got indirectly avoided by the old man, now she can eat her dinner in peace.
