Chapter 252: Chapter 251 Deliberate Concealment
"Don’t hide it from you, Sister Cheng!" Li Li said with a smile, "After you told me Sincere Shoe City was closing down, I made up my mind to sell shoes myself!" "That’s great! This is a good thing!" Mrs. Zhen also smiled upon hearing this and pulled out a piece of paper to write down a series of numbers and handed it to Li Li, "This is Boss Jia’s phone number in Qi City, keep it! Do well!"
"Mm!" Li Li nodded vigorously, carefully folded the paper, and tucked it into her pocket.
Having worked with Sister Cheng for so long, she was quite confident, she thought she could do it!
"My new home is near Qi City No.1 High School, and nothing is settled at home yet! If you need anything, just look for Xu’s Martial Arts School near there; Xu the owner knows where my home is!"
"Got it! Sister Cheng, I will definitely come visit you!"
"Alright! When you come, I’ll cook something delicious for you."
Mrs. Zhen took one last look at the empty and messy shop, the shelving was already dealt with, and the floor was littered with empty shoe boxes.
She sighed, "Ah... let’s lock up and go! We are so fated, we are bound to meet again!"
"Mm!" After Mrs. Zhen locked up, Li Li returned the keys of Shoe City to her and then said goodbye.
Yet Mrs. Zhen didn’t leave right away, but lingered in front of the store for a little while.
She was still a bit reluctant.
After all, once the keys were handed over to the Demolition Office tomorrow, she would have nothing more to do with this place.
The world does not have a feast that does not end, and life is full of changes.
Before the divorce, she had never imagined such a day! Here it was being demolished, but she wasn’t keeping the shop, instead ran to Qi City to buy a property and open a new store.
It’s all about time, it’s all about fate.
Holding on to the hope for the future, Mrs. Zhen firmly turned around and walked back home step by step.
---
Early Friday morning, Mrs. Zhen delivered the keys of Shoe City to the Demolition Office, thus concluding the handover of the shop.
Once home, she began tidying up the remaining items in the house, everything that needed to be moved or given away had to be sorted out.
Because the buyer was coming to take over the house in the afternoon!
It was also at this time, Mrs. Zhen was startled to find an extra bench by the yard wall!!!
This flustered Mrs. Zhen heavily! She cursed loudly.
"Who’s the brat with no proper upbringing? Already eyeing someone else’s daughter at such a young age!! You better hope I don’t see you, or I’m going to hit you every time I do!"
She didn’t raise her voice on purpose, but if someone from the Fu family happened to be in the yard, they would surely hear everything clear and loud!
Mrs. Zhen wasn’t just speaking out of anger, she genuinely intended not to have any more contact with the Fu family.
Though the two families had been neighbors for many years, interactions had always revolved around minor issues, and Mrs. Zhen had mostly dealt with Mrs. Fu.
She wasn’t very familiar with the men of the Fu family, especially the constantly studying Second Fu!
Now that the kids were growing up, she realized Fu Yu really had a terrible character! What kind of person shamelessly pursues a young girl by any means necessary?!
It must be a trait inherited from Granny Fu...
Even if Fu Yu grew up playing with Zhen Yan from a young age! When it comes to her daughter’s matters, even her son must step aside!
Even if Fu Yu could later be admitted to a high school in Qi City, she would never allow him to step into her house again!
"What kind of people are these!" Mrs. Zhen finally ended the discussion with that remark.
As the saying goes, even rabbits don’t eat the grass by their burrows! Fu Yu, who’s just in middle school, is already thinking about abducting her daughter for an early romance! And there is that uncle with such questionable character!
Not to mention Zhen Yu isn’t interested in Fu Yu, even if her daughter really took a liking to him, Mrs. Zhen would still sabotage it!!

After handling everything related to the house, Mrs. Zhen rented a room at a guesthouse near the station.
Tonight, she could only guard the two packed sets of luggage and the six pairs of unsold shoes, spending the night here.
Zhen Yu naturally went to stay with the Han Family! Although she wished she could stay at the guesthouse with her mother. That way, they could have taken a ride to Qi City early on Saturday morning.
But frustratingly, when Zhen Yu discussed this with her mother on Thursday evening, Mrs. Zhen disagreed...
Since it gets dark early when Zhen Yu finishes school, Mrs. Zhen neither wanted to inconvenience the Han Family by asking them to bring her daughter to herself, nor did she want her daughter walking alone to the guesthouse near the station, as it was not safe.
So on Friday evening after school, as the group of five arrived at the East side of the residential area near Fangshan, Zhen Yu voluntarily stopped, saying goodbye to Bai Xue and cousin Fu Yu.
Previously, the Han Family Brothers would escort her home first before taking a roundabout way back to their own home from the west side of the pit. Now that Zhen Yu would be living with them, there was no need to take such roundabouts anymore!
Of course! Besides saying goodbye, Zhen Yu had an especially important message for Bai Xue and cousin Fu Yu!
"Bai Xue, Fu Yu! We hand over our house today; it belongs to someone else now! From now on, you don’t have to wait for me to go to school or do so after school either."
Bai Xue was taken aback, then asked with concern, "You’re handing over the house today? Where will you be staying tonight? Aren’t you supposed to stay in a dormitory? What about Aunt Cheng?"
Her questions were many and urgent. Zhen Yu had just begun to answer when Fu Yu interrupted.
He anxiously showed his concern, "Is it because you haven’t sorted out your dormitory? How about you and Aunt Cheng stay at my place tonight! We have space!"
His words had just landed when the other four suddenly went silent.

When Grandpa Fu sent Second Fu away, Mrs. Bai helped to buy the ticket! She naturally knew about the incident where the brother angrily cursed at the Zhen Family mother and daughter by the Han Family’s door.
After returning home that night, Mrs. Bai warned Bai Xue! If she still wanted to be good friends with Zhen Yu and maintain their current good relationship, then she shouldn’t mention anything about the Fu Family in front of the Zhen Family.
At the moment, Bai Xue was looking at her cousin with a look reserved for fools, thinking internally, "Do you know how badly Uncle offended the Zhen Family! How could they possibly stay at the Fu’s house!"
Fu Yu really didn’t know! Because Grandpa Fu had intentionally hidden it from him.
This is what he told Fu’s father and mother when advising them.
"Don’t involve the children in adults’ matters! The first time Old Er cursed over the wall, Fu Yu was so distressed! If it affects the children’s relationship because of this, who will help Fu Yu with his studies?! It took so much effort to make him obedient and willing to study, don’t you all hope that he can get into high school?"
After discussing, Fu’s father and Mrs. Fu decided to follow Grandpa Fu’s advice. By not telling Fu Yu, he wouldn’t feel embarrassed and wouldn’t hesitate to talk to others.
Others wouldn’t bring it up on their own, and wouldn’t associate with him too openly! They could just continue to interact as before!
But was Grandpa Fu’s meticulous desire to keep Fu Yu in good relations with his friends really for the sake of Fu Yu’s studies, as he said?
Who knows what his true intentions are at the bottom of his heart...
