a chill down Qi Ya's spine, her face paling visibly. "Hanchuan... what are you talking about What Roland""Won't you admit it" Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Do you think I let Qi Dongming...Fu Xiaoyao blinked in astonishment, not really hearing anything else he said. But there were a few words that she heard very clearly.
That is...
"First Lady" she stared blankly at Lu Hanchuan.
Lu Hanchuan hummed, "Not bad. Listen carefully. You are the first lady of the alliance tonight. The person standing behind you is me, the entire Lu family. This is the confidence and pride that allows you to be fearless."
"Hánchuān..." Fù Xiǎoyáo gazed into his deep, brilliant eyes. In that instant, she suddenly felt a surge of power throughout her body.
This power dispersed the tension within her, leaving behind a surge of intense confidence that coursed through her body.
She took a deep breath, clenched her fist and smiled, "I understand, Kankawa. Let's go in."
As soon as she finished speaking, she took the initiative to take a step forward, entering the venue ahead of Lu Hanchuan.
He was right, she had the entire Lu family behind her. In terms of status, most people in the room couldn't compare to her. What did she have to be nervous about
Besides, she loved the title of First Lady.
Since that was the case, she couldn't blacken this name either.
Lu Hanchuan stood still, his jet-black eyes fixed on Fu Xiaoyao's back. When he saw the weak aura emanating from her suddenly become powerful, his eyebrows couldn't help but rise.
This woman is pretty good, she woke up right away. She's really made a lot of progress, huh
Nevermind, Lu Hanchuan's lips curled up slightly, and he also stepped into the venue.
Fu Xiaoyao stood in front of the red wine tower at the venue and, seeing him approach, hurriedly took a step forward. "Why are you only here now"
"What's wrong" Lu Hanchuan raised a glass of red wine.
Fu Xiaoyao pointed in one direction, "Just now Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen came over to greet me and asked about you, but you weren't here."
"Hmm." Lu Hanchuan nodded with a swirl of his red wine.
Fu Xiaoyao's lips twitched slightly, "What do you mean"
"It's nothing, Old Chen will just say hello in a while. Now I'll take you to meet some others." Lu Hanchuan said, putting down his wine glass and gesturing for her to take his arm.
Fu Xiaoyao didn't hesitate, obediently took his arm, and walked through the crowd at the venue with him.
After going around once, Fu Xiaoyao held a thick stack of business cards in her hand, feeling dizzy.
When she first met a few bigwigs, she remembered their names. But as she met more and more people, she couldn't even tell who was who anymore, completely mixing them up.
"Hánchuān, I truly admire you," Fù Xiǎoyáo panted slightly, saying with a wry smile.
Lu Hanchuan took a sip of wine, "Admire what"
"Of course, it's these people. You actually remember their identities so clearly, that's amazing." Fu Xiaoyao sighed.
Lu Hanchuan let out a light chuckle, "These people I introduced you to all have business dealings with the Lu family, of course I remember them. Alright, I'll take you to meet the last one, and after that, you can go to the resting room for a while."
"What about you" Fu Xiaoyao's eyes lit up at the thought of being able to rest.
Lu Hanchuan glanced at his watch. "This is a business alliance meeting. I have to talk to them."
"That makes sense. I understand now." Fu Xiaoyao nodded.
Lu Hanchuan poured himself a new glass of red wine and led her in another direction.
That direction is the rest area, with several people sitting there.
When Lu Hanzhan brought her over, almost everyone stood up and greeted Lu Hanzhan.
Lu Hanchuan responded with a somewhat cold tone and stopped in front of the person in the middle, "General Wang."
A middle-aged man nicknamed "General Wang" stood up and smiled back, "So it's President Lu, nice to meet you."
The man extended his hand toward Lü Hánchuan.
Lu Hchuan glanced at him and extended his hand to shake. "Hello, Mr. Wang."
"Mr. Lu, how come you suddenly have time to find me" Mr. Wang raised two glasses of wine and handed one to Lu Hanchuan.
Lu Hanchuan took it and held it in his hand, with no intention of drinking. "Come over and discuss something with Mr. Wang."
“Oh” Wang Zong raised an eyebrow in surprise. “Discuss something”
"Right, I heard that piece of land on the north bank belongs to Mr. Wang, right" Lu Hanchuan sat down with Fu Xiaoyao, and as he did so, he carefully smoothed the shawl on her shoulders to prevent it from falling off.
He performed this gentle action in front of Mr. Wang, causing Mr. Wang to widen his eyes in astonishment. “Mr. Lu, this is…”
"She is my wife." Lu Hanchuan replied calmly.
Fu Xiaoyao pressed down on her rapidly beating heart, offering Wang Zong a stiff but polite smile. "Mr. Wang, hello. I'm Han Chuan's wife, my surname is Fu."
Although she had heard him introduce her as his wife to many people tonight, every time he said those five words, "she is my wife," her heart would still flutter with excitement.
"Wife" Wang looked at Fu Xiaoyao in surprise, hard to believe that this woman who wasn't very outstanding in appearance was actually the granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family.
He initially thought it was Lü Hánchuan's mistress.
I never expected it to be my wife. Luckily, he didn't just say the wrong thing, otherwise he would have offended someone.
At this, General Wang's heart skipped a beat and his expression became somewhat embarrassed. He hurriedly got up and poured a glass of wine for Fu Xiaoyao, "So Ms. Fu is Mr. Lu's wife! Nice to meet you."
"Mr. Wang, you're too kind." Fu Xiaoyao politely said, extending her hand to take the glass of wine.
However, before the wine could even reach her lips for a few seconds, Lu Hanchuan snatched it away and said coldly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wang, she doesn't drink."
"Is that so" General Wang was taken aback, then he chuckled nonchalantly, "It's alright, it's alright, if you don't want to drink, just have some juice."
As he said, he indeed asked his assistant to get some juice for Fu Xiaoyao.
Lu Hankan took the wine glass from Fu Xiaoyao's hand and put it down, "Then I'll thank President Wang on her behalf."
"No need to thank me, no need to thank me. This is what I should do. But Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu are so loving," Wang said, eyeing the couple, but his gaze lingered more on Fu Xiaoyao.
He was very curious, how could such an ordinary-looking woman win over the heart of Lu Hanchuan.
And I never heard that Lu Hanchuan was married before.
"What are you looking at" Lu Hanchuan's cold voice suddenly sounded, abruptly interrupting Wang Zong's thoughts.
Mr. Wang quickly came to his senses and smiled, "Hehehe, General Lu, you worry too much. I didn't see anything. Just now, General Lu asked me about that piece of land on the north bank, right"
Lu Hanchuan hummed in agreement, "That's right, is Mr. Wang interested in selling"
Hearing this, Fu Xiaoyao blinked in slight surprise.
It turns out that piece of land actually belongs to this person.
"It's for sale," said Wang Zong, seeming rather troubled. He kept fiddling with his wine glass and evaded the question. "Lu Zong, how did you know about that piece of land"
"I discovered it while I was having people collect land information." Lu Hanchuan casually explained.
"Oh, I see," said Mr. Wang in realization. "So that's how it is. I didn't even know my piece had become so sought after."
"What do you mean by that" Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes.
"Mr. Wang smiled, "To be frank with you, Mr. Lu, besides you, some other people have also asked me if I'm selling that piece of land recently."
"Others" Lu Hanchuan's thin lips tightened. "Who"
Fu Xiaoyao also curiously looked at this Mr. Wang.
General Wang took a sip of his wine and replied, “That person, Mr. Lu, you should know him. He’s the CEO of Tangshi Group.”
"Tang Yi" Lu Hanchuan was slightly surprised.
Mr. Wang nodded, "Yes, yes, it's him. He asked me a couple of days ago, saying he wanted to buy that land and build a private estate on it. He asked if I was selling. Honestly, I've had that piece of land empty for so many years, and I never knew what to do with it. Now that he's brought it up, I'm considering it."
"What a coincidence" Fu Xiaoyao couldn't help but speak up.. She asked tremblingly, "Aunt Song, what are you doing"Don't tell her this potty is for her.But as it turned out, she was right.Aunt Song put the basin aside and explained with a smile, "I went to th...
