d followed him closely.The hall was almost packed with people. Fu Xiaoyao took a rough glance and estimated there were at least twenty or thirty, comprising men, women, and children of all ages. These...Fu Xiaoyao originally wanted to refuse, but then she thought about the heavy expression she had just seen on Lu Hanchuan's face, so she couldn't bring herself to say no.
Tang Yi saw this and smiled as he approached, "It seems you're also very curious about what they're talking about."
Fu Xiaoyao rolled her eyes and ignored him, tiptoeing towards Lu Hanchuan and the others.
Tang Yi saw her movements, let out a light snort, and also lightened his steps to chase after her.
Two people leaned against the wall on the balcony, one in front of the other. This was a blind spot, so they didn't have to worry about being seen by people outside the balcony, and they could clearly see what people outside were doing.
Tang Yi elbowed Fu Xiaoyao in front of him, and said in a low voice with pride, "How is the position I chose"
Fu Xiaoyao's temples slid down a few black lines, "You've had enough, shut your mouth first, they're talking."
Outside the balcony, Qiao Mu respectfully stood behind Lu Hanchuan.
Lu Hanchuan gazed into the distance, his expression tense. "Did Qi Ya give any instructions"
"No." Joe shook his head.
Lu Hanchuan's eyebrows furrowed at the words, "No torture"
"It's done," Qiao Mu sighed. "But she insists on her previous statement, and she even said that if Mr. Lu doesn't believe you two had a relationship, he could wait for two months."
"What do you mean" Lu Hanchuan was a little confused.
But the eavesdropping Fu Xiaoyao understood, her hand against the wall tightened slowly.
Wait two months......
Two months is just the right amount of time to accurately check if a woman is pregnant!
Could Qi Ya be trying to get pregnant with Lu Hanchuan's child
As expected, Qiao Mu's next words confirmed her guess.
All Qiao Mu said was: "Qi Ya means, if you really don't believe that you had a relationship, wait two months. If she's pregnant then, you'll believe it."
"Pregnant" Lu Hanchuan's pupils suddenly constricted.
Joe nodded, "That's exactly what she said."
"She actually came up with this idea!" Lu Hanchuan clenched his fist.
In the dim light, Fu Xiaoyao couldn't bear it anymore. Her heart was in turmoil, and she turned around and walked away directly.
Tang Yi saw her leave, and it wasn't good for him to continue eavesdropping alone, so he left with her.
"Why didn't you keep listening" asked Tang Yi, returning to the previous spot.
"Is it worth listening" Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyelids and replied softly.
Tang Yi chuckled lightly, "I think you heard that woman named Qi Ya might be pregnant with Lu's child, and your heart couldn't accept it, so you stopped listening, right"
Her heart was caught, Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips, "Knowing still ask!"
"Hmm." Tang Yi shrugged. "So, what are you going to do now"
"What do we do" Fu Xiaoyao looked at him.
Tang Yi raised an eyebrow. “Of course it’s this matter, Mr. Lu cheated! That woman could even be carrying his child, don’t you mind”
Fu Xiaoyao was silent and did not answer.
Mind
How could she not care She cares a lot, okay!
But what could she do, cry and make a scene
"Why aren't you speaking" Tang Yi asked again.
Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip. "There's nothing to say, it's already happened. What can I do about it if I mind"
"That's how it is, but can you really divorce him" Tang Yi's gaze swept over with a sharp glint.
Tang Yi’s eyes narrowed, “Divorce”
“Yes, he cheated. Do you really want to forgive him and pretend nothing happened Keep living your life with him What if that woman named Qi Ya brings a child out of wedlock one day, will you help her raise the child” Tang Yi raised his arm, looking at her with playful interest.
Fu Xiaoyao's small face sank, "How is that possible How could I possibly raise a child for the person I hate the most"
Just the thought of Lu Hanchuan having a child with another woman was unbearable for her.
Not to mention, she would have to take care of it.
"So, the best thing for you to do now is divorce. Continuing with Mr. Lu will only cause you more pain later on. Believe me." Tang Yi's expression suddenly became serious and solemn.
Fu Xiaoyao pondered for a few seconds, then shook her head. "I won't divorce."
"Why" Tang Yi frowned, "Just like this, you still want to be with him"
Fu Xiaoyao pressed her temples, her voice slightly tired as she replied: "No, I promised my grandfather that I wouldn't divorce Lu Hanchuan, so..."
"So you're really going to keep living with this man who has hurt you over and over again" Tang Yi pointed at the balcony where Lu Hanchuan and the others had just been, her voice a mixture of anger and disbelief.
Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her cheeks, "Tang Yi, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I also have my concerns, so please don't persuade me any further. The time for the eulogy is approaching, I'll go now. You do as you please."
She nodded slightly to Tang Yi after speaking, then left the place.
"Young Mistress, where did you go" As soon as she returned to the lounge, Fu Xiaoyao was questioned by Fu Bo.
"I'm sorry, I was a little overwhelmed just now and went for a quick walk outside."
"That's good then," Fu Bo nodded. "Now that you're back, why don't you and Young Master go out and give a speech"
"Hmm." Fu Xiaoyao responded with a sound, glancing at Lu Hanzchuan who had returned before her.
Lü Hánchuan sensed something and turned his head to look over.
Their eyes met, both startled for a moment, but then quickly looked away as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this scene, Fu Bo sighed inwardly but didn't say anything. He waved his hand, urging the two to hurry out and prepare their speeches.
After the eulogy, the funeral drew to a close.
At this time, the sky had grown dark, and a cold wind was blowing, as if it were about to rain.
Lu Hannan went to see those guests off, while Fu Xiaoyao stayed alone in the lounge, preparing to rest her feet. She had been standing all day and wearing high heels, so her feet ached terribly.
Ding ding ding!
At that moment, the door to the break room was knocked on.
Fu Xiaoyao thought it was Aunt Song or Uncle Fu, so she didn't ask and endured the pain in her feet and calves as she walked over and opened the door.
"Hello!" the man outside smiled and waved at her.
Fu Xiaoyao first blinked in surprise, then came back to her senses with a gasp, "Si Nian, you're back"
The visitor was Shao Sian, whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
He was also dressed in a black suit with a white lily pinned to his chest. It was obvious he had come to attend the grandfather's funeral.
"Yeah, just got back." Shao Si Nian nodded in response.
Fu Xiaoyao turned sideways to let him in, “But I didn’t see you today”
"I just arrived recently. I had surgery before, and I only came last night, so I'm late." Shao Sini explained.
Fu Xiaoyao nodded in understanding, "So that's how it is. Please sit down."
Shao Sian let out an "um" and sat down on the sofa.
Fu Xiaoyao poured him another glass of water. “Please use it.”
"Thank you." Shao Si Nian smiled as he took it, taking a sip before asking, "How have you been doing this past while"
Fu Xiaoyao gave a strained smile. "Not bad," she said.
"You're lying!" Shao Si Nian looked at her pale face, "You look so tired, haven't you had a good rest"
Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyes and smiled wryly, "Grandfather passed away. These days, how can I still sleep"
Upon hearing this, Shao Si also fell silent for a moment, "Old Master Lu's departure was too sudden. Please accept my condolences."
"I will, but the one who should truly be mourning isn't me." Fu Xiaoyao sat down across from him.
Shao Siniang heard who she was referring to, and the eyes behind her glasses narrowed slightly. "About the reason for Old Master Lu's death, I just heard a few words from those people at the funeral. Are they telling the truth"ionship is more of a marriage based on love, and it would be difficult for her to ask him to leave."Since it's not a problem, then tell me, what do you want to eat tonight I'll let you order." Lu Hanc...
