know."Lu Hanchuan's face eased slightly, "I have something to do this afternoon, you go back by yourself later.""Are you going back to the villa tonight"Lu Hanchuan frowned and didn't answer.Fu Xiaoya..."Yeah." Fu Xiaoyao nodded.

Lu Hanchuan got out of the car and walked around to help her out from the passenger seat, "Don't you have a house in City C"

"Yeah," Fu Xiaoyao followed him, answering in detail, "It's just still being cleaned and aired out. I think it should be ready to move in tomorrow. For these few days, we'll stay in a hotel."

That's how it is.

Lu Hanchuan raised his chin in understanding and didn't ask further. He supported her as they walked into the hotel.

After entering, Fu Xiaoyao told him which room she lived in.

Lu Hanchuan brought her to the suite door, "Here's your key card."

Fu Xiaoyao was stunned, "Mr. Lu, would you like to come in and sit for a while"

Lu Hanchuan's eyes flickered, he didn't answer, tacitly agreeing.

That's what he meant.

He wanted to see where she lived.

Fu Xiaoyao understood Lu Hanchuan's true desire to sit inside. Her brows furrowed slightly.

What's wrong with this man

Have they only known each other for a few days

His act of just going inside to sit down is already impolite, isn't it

Could it be that because she just pretended to have some interest in him, he also started to be interested in her

If that were truly the case, it would seem like a good thing. That way, she would be more confident in her ability to make him fall in love with her in the shortest amount of time.

Then, she could ask him to divorce Qi Ya, and then she could make Qi Ya pay the price!

Thinking this way, Fu Xiaoyao's breath became rapid, and the excitement in her heart almost couldn't be contained, showing on her face.

But luckily, her rationality was still intact and she didn't lose control completely. Otherwise, Lu Hankan would definitely have noticed something amiss and suspected her of something.

"Here." Fu Xiaoyao took the key card from her bag and handed it to Lu Hanchuan.

Since he wants to come in and sit, let him in.

She had planned to make him fall in love with her again, so how could she possibly refuse his little requests

Moreover, Xiao Bao is still in kindergarten, and she's not worried that he will find out about Xiao Bao's existence.

Lu Hanchuan didn't know what Fu Xiaoyao was thinking. He took the card and swiped it on the lock.

The door creaked open.

Lu Hchuan supported her inside and placed her on the sofa in the living room. Then, he silently surveyed everything in the living room with his gaze.

Seeing several magic cubes and some other toys on the coffee table in the living room, Lu Hanchuan couldn't help but wonder, "You play these"

Fu Xiaoyao shook her head meaningfully, “I don’t play, but someone does.”

"Who" Lu Hanchuan frowned, his first reaction was that she must be talking about a man.

Is he her boyfriend

Lu Hanchuan's drooping hand suddenly clenched, feeling a bit displeased in his heart.

Fu Xiaoyao picked up a Rubik's Cube and played with it, "Such a cute little guy."

"Kid" Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow.

Fu Xiaoyao hummed, "Yes, a very cute little boy, only five years old this year. He's especially smart. I really like him, so I bought him lots of Rubik's Cubes and toys."

Upon hearing this, Lu Hanchuan's tightly clenched hand suddenly loosened, and the slight displeasure in his heart also vanished abruptly.

原來是個孩子啊。

It must be the child of a tenant living on this floor.

"Do you like children" Lu Hanchuan asked.

Fu Xiaoyao stroked the Rubik's Cube, "Yes, children are the cutest in the world. They are pure, innocent, and beautiful. Who wouldn't like them"

Lu Hanchuan did not respond.

Because he didn't know how to respond.

He couldn't exactly say he was one of those people who didn't like children, could he

For SuSu, it took him three or four years to accept her. And accepting SuSu wasn't because he fell in love with her, but whenever he saw SuSu, an image of a child would appear in his mind.

He didn't know why the phantom of a child kept appearing in his mind. Every time that apparition showed up, he felt deep guilt and remorse towards the child.

The child's apparition was about the same size as SuSu. It wasn't that he doted on SuSu, it was more like he transferred his love for the child onto her.

He remembered that Aunt Song had once said that when Fu Xiaoyao died, she was carrying his child. Perhaps the phantom child was the one in Fu Xiaoyao's womb. If the child was still alive, calculating his age would be about the same as Su Su's.

"Lu Zong, why aren't you speaking" Fu Xiaoyao saw Lu Hanzhen lost in thought and reached out to wave her hand in front of his face.

Lu Hanchuan rubbed his temples, "It's nothing, it's getting late, Miss Shi..."

"No need to be so formal, Lu Zong. We've known each other for a few days now, we're practically friends, right So just call me by my name. My parents, brother, and friends all call me Yao Yao. Of course, I prefer being called Xiao Yao." Fu Xiaoyao said with a smile, her eyes twinkling.

Lu Hanchuan didn't expect her to suddenly let him call her by her nickname. He was stunned for a few seconds.

After regaining his composure, he subconsciously nodded and called out, "Xiao Yao."

He also felt that the name Xiaoyao suited her better than Yaoya.

Fu Xiaoyao smiled brightly, "Then I'll call you by your name too, Hanchuan, how does that sound"

Lu Hanchuan lowered his eyes, "Alright!"

Now, in the world, only Qi Ya calls him Hanchuan.

But somehow, he felt that her cold and distant tone was more in line with what he desired.

It seemed like this chilling voice should have come from her.

"Then it's settled, you call me Hanchuan and I'll call you Xiaoyao." Fu Xiaoyao clapped her hands in delight.

Lu Hanzhen had no objections.

Afterwards, he called a hotel attendant to take care of her and then left.

As soon as he left, Fu Xiaoyao stopped maintaining the smile she had carefully put on, and returned to her coldness.

"Lu Hanchuan, Lu Hanchuan, you've truly disappointed me now!" she muttered with disdain.

In the past, when she had just become his wife, she wasn't even allowed to call him by his name.

Not until three years passed did he allow her to call him by his name after living with her in the villa for a while as part of his plan to get her bone marrow for Qi Ya.

But now, someone he had only known for a few days called him by his name, and he actually agreed. Even though it was her, she felt a twinge of displeasure in her heart as well.

It's all the better this way, the more special he is to Shi Yao, the sooner she can break through his defenses.

Never mind, Fu Xiaoyao stretched languidly, glanced at her ankle which was already slightly less swollen, then took out her phone and made a call.

"Hello, Si Nian," Fu Xiaoyao answered the phone first, her expression much more genuine. She didn't have the forced smile she wore in front of Lu Hanchuan.

"Xiao Yao, is there something you need" Shao Si Nian's refreshing voice came over.

Fu Xiaoyao blushed slightly and said, "Well, this might be a bother, but I'd need you to pick up Xiao Bao again today. I can't make it because I twisted my ankle."

"What You twisted your ankle Is it serious" Shao Si Nian's voice became tense the moment he heard she was hurt.

This blatant concern moved Fu Xiaoyao, but it also increased her psychological pressure.

The more he cared for her, the more guilty she felt towards him.

She couldn't reciprocate his feelings.

"It's not serious, just a dislocation. I've already seen a doctor." Fu Xiaoyao replied softly.

Shao Siniang let out a breath of relief, "That's good. Okay, I'll go to the kindergarten to pick up Xiaobao at the appointed time."

"Thank you so much, Si Nian," Fu Xiaoyao said gratefully.

Shaun smiled, "No need to thank me, I'm Xiao Bao's godfather, it's my duty to pick him up from school. By the way, where are you now" headquarters. I need to go back and deal with it." replied Lu Hanchuan.Fu Xiaoyao suppressed the excitement in her heart and forced a calm expression, nodding. "I understand. Actually, you don't have...
