Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Fu Siya Goes Offline, Crying Bitterly
Hearing Old Mr. Fu speak this way, Fu Siya was not only unmoved but it was as if she heard some kind of joke.
"Grandfather entrusted the Fu Family business to me to manage because I am outstanding and make you worry-free?" Fu Siya said with a sarcastic tone.
"You had me take care of the Fu business not because Fu Chen, that waste, only knows how to squander and indulge, totally clueless about managing a company!"
"If Fu Chen also had a talent for managing a business, even if he is not yet of age, Grandfather would have handed over family matters to him to manage, right?"
"After all, Fu Chen is your only grandson, while I am just a granddaughter. A woman and an outsider, destined to be married off."
"I’ve slaved away for the sake of the Fu Family, yet I get nothing. Grandfather, you never truly intended to give me the Fu Family’s shares and actual power."
"In the end, it’s just about making me manage the company well, so that when Fu Chen comes of age, he can take over directly, right?"
Old Mr. Fu did not expect Fu Siya to think this way, and with some disbelief, he said, "Siya... how could you think like that?"
"I did not give you control over the company’s real power because you’re still too young and need more experience. If you can grow to be capable of standing on your own, I will naturally let you take charge."
"You and Chenchen are both the children I love the most. Everything that belongs to me will eventually be divided equally between the two of you, siblings. What does it have to do with whether you’re a girl, who might marry off or not?"
Fu Siya, with red eyes and clenched teeth, did not believe Old Mr. Fu’s words at all.
"In any case, it’s like this now; soon I will be taken away by the police, Grandfather still gets to say whatever you please!"
"Grandfather claims to love me, yet you give someone like Lu Sheng gifts, casually handing over a jade bracelet worth seven figures."
"And me? What gifts has Grandfather ever given me?"
Remembering the scene she saw through the crack of the door that night, of Grandfather putting a bracelet on Lu Sheng and chatting with her happily, Fu Siya felt pitiful.
"Every birthday of mine, since I was little, Grandfather always said not to develop a habit of extravagance."
"The family has never gone all out for my birthday, and Grandfather has never given me any substantial gifts."
"Showing more care for an outsider than your own granddaughter, doesn’t that chill one’s heart?"
"Is verbal love really enough?!"
Old Mr. Fu had not expected that Fu Siya would have seen him giving Lu Sheng the bracelet that night, nor that she would harbor resentment against him because of it.
He paused for a good ten seconds before he sighed deeply and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
Fu Siya did not understand why Old Mr. Fu suddenly took out his phone at that moment.
Just as she was about to ask, Old Mr. Fu handed the phone over to her.
"Siya, Grandfather has never shown you these things before, you can look through them now."
"If you resent Grandfather because of such things, I do not blame you, it is indeed my fault."
"This is..."
Fu Siya subconsciously took the phone and saw that what Old Mr. Fu had just pulled up was a photo album.
She saw the photos in the album and her expression was momentarily blank.
However, as her fingers flipped through the photos one by one, Fu Siya’s eyes widened, and finally, her lips trembled as she said, "These things are..."
"These things have been prepared by Grandfather for you over the years."
Old Mr. Fu closed his eyes briefly, speaking slowly.
"Since you were in high school, Grandfather has been thinking every year on your birthday to save something for you."
"Not those superficial clothes and luxury goods, but real gold jewelry, jade accessories, properties, and shops registered in your name, already worth more than a hundred million."
"If you want to marry off someday, these are what Grandfather has prepared for your dowry. If you don’t want to marry, Grandfather is also willing to support you for a lifetime, these things will all be your personal property."
"In Grandfather’s view, true love for children isn’t just talk."
"They say the love of parents for their children means planning for the long term. Grandfather talks little to you, but has never missed out on a single thing that should be considered for you."
"The school you attended abroad was handpicked by Grandfather, during your studies overseas these years, Grandfather has always been secretly having someone look after you. When running the company, Grandfather also secretly had someone assist you."
"On the contrary, with Chenchen, he’s a boy who doesn’t need such detailed care; just growing up safe and not going astray is already my biggest expectation of him."
"You blame Grandfather for giving Lu Sheng a bracelet worth seven figures, but the pills she gave me before are worth tens of millions per pill."
"She’s a child even younger than you by four or five years, and I, as an elder, how could I owe a child such a favor?"
Hearing this, Fu Siya couldn’t help but tremble uncontrollably.
Clutching the phone still on the photo page, she couldn’t utter a word.
"This time going to Huali Island, I also thought that there are colored minerals that you young girls like, that I could bring back to make you happy."
"But I really never expected that you, who seemed always kind and lovely in Grandfather’s eyes, could do such a thing."
"You asked me angrily just now, am I not your grandfather, why would I do this, why would I ruin you."
"But Siya, if you did such a thing and Grandfather still indulged you, and we downplayed this matter at home, you would never learn such a profound lesson, nor would you truly feel regret in your heart."
"Whether you misunderstand Grandfather or resent him, but in Grandfather’s opinion, the farce at today’s press conference, including the Fu Family’s reputation, these are not the most important things."
"The most important thing is for you to recognize your mistakes and wake up truly to make changes from now on."
Hearing Old Mr. Fu speak to this point, Fu Siya truly couldn’t hold back anymore, and broke down in tears: "Grandfather... why would you..."
Why what, Fu Siya just couldn’t say.
Why had Grandfather done so much for her, yet never spoke to her of it.
Why, even after everything was exposed, was Grandfather still willing to take the trouble to teach her here.
Why was Grandfather still thinking of her, when she was the one who had hired someone to kill him!
Thinking this, Fu Siya lost control and covered her face, weeping uncontrollably.
At this moment, she truly regretted it.
But the deed was already done; no matter how much she regretted it, she could not change what she had done.
Amidst Fu Siya’s cries, the police officers who had previously stepped aside returned to the Great Hall.
Old Mr. Fu sat in the wheelchair, wiped away tears from his face, then turned the wheelchair around.
He closed his eyes, his voice adopting a determined and strained tone: "...Then, please, officers, carry out justice impartially and take my granddaughter away."
