rim of his teacup and said lightly, "This child is gone. It's her regret and also my regret. I know she always wanted a child. Since she couldn't keep the first one, then give birth to another. At l...Xiaobao grabbed her finger and rubbed it, as if agreeing.
Fu Xiaoyao led him out of the room.
Shao Siniu got up and walked over, looking at Xiao Bao with concern, "How are you"
"It's fine, Xiaobao just saw me injured and was too worried. He didn't know how to express it, so he did that." Fu Xiaoyao explained simply.
Shao Si Nian nodded lightly, letting out a breath. "So that's how it is, good. By the way, what are we having for dinner tonight I'll cook."
"What are you doing" Fu Xiaoyao looked at him in surprise, her gaze fixed on his slender palm and delicate fingers.
These hands look like they could be holding a scalpel, or perhaps a pen.
She couldn't imagine at all what it would be like to see these hands holding a cleaver, and she didn't want to think about it. She always felt it would be a waste.
And what if something happened to it Wouldn't that be a pity
"That's right, let you guys taste my cooking." Shao Si Nian rolled up his sleeves, "Don't look at me like this, actually I can cook."
Fu Xiaoyao smiled, "Forget it, you practically have surgery every day now. Let your hands rest, and just have the hotel send up dinner."
After finishing her words, she went to call the hotel's front desk, not giving Shao Sian any chance to cook.
Shao Si Nian was helpless and had to give up.
The hotel acted quickly. Shortly after Fu Xiaoyao finished her phone call, a waiter pushed a trolley with meals up to their table.
Since she had difficulty walking, Shao Sian brought the dinner along with Xiao Bao and placed it on the table.
The dinner was very plentiful. Three people, two adults and one child, each sat in their own direction and began to eat.
After dinner, Shao Sian took Xiao Bao back to the room.
He drew the bathwater for Xiaobao and waited until Xiaobao started bathing on his own before he walked out. He took a quick look at Fu Xiaoyao's foot resting on the sofa, “How did you sprain your ankle”
"Actually, it was an accident." Fu Xiaoyao sipped her water and slowly told him about what happened during the day.
After hearing this, Shao Si Nian frowned, "Is it really an accident"
"Well, although it seemed a bit artificial, it was definitely an accident. I was just unlucky and happened to enter the elevator during that time." Fu Xiaoyao said with a wry smile.
Shao Si Nian sighed, "Fortunately, you're okay."
Heaven knows, when he just heard about the elevator accident, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
"Yes, luckily that elevator was just rusty pulley wheels, a bit stuck when going down. If the pulley had broken and the elevator car had fallen..."
Fu Xiaoyao shivered and couldn't continue.
The only result of continuing is death.
And he died very badly, at least being smashed to a pulp.
So luckily, during the day it was just a false alarm and nothing really happened. Otherwise, she wouldn't even have gotten her revenge before going to die with Lu Hanchuan.
"Alright, don't think too much about it. You won't be able to walk properly for the next two days anyway. Just stay in the hotel and rest well these two days." Shao Sian said with concern.
Fu Xiaoyao nodded, "Well, I think so too. I'll take this time to spend some time with Xiao Bao while my foot is injured."
"That's good." Shao Sinians pushed his glasses with satisfaction.
At that moment, the phone suddenly rang.
Fu Xiaoyao put down her water glass and took out her cell phone from her pocket.
After glancing at the caller ID, she put the phone to her ear and said, "Hello, this is Shi Yao."
"Ms. Shi, hello, we are the housekeeping team. Your apartment has been cleaned. When would you like to come and inspect" The person on the phone politely asked.
Fu Xiaoyao smiled, "There's no need to inspect the property. You guys were arranged by my brother. I trust you. I'll transfer the remaining payment tomorrow, and you can just have someone deliver the keys."
"Alright, then I won't disturb Miss. Have a good rest and good night." The person on the phone said in a more polite tone.
Fu Xiaoyao hummed in response and hung up the phone.
Shao Si Nian was whittling an apple, "Who is it"
"Housework." Fu Xiaoyao threw her phone aside.
Shao Siniang sliced the apple she had peeled into small pieces and put them on a small plate, pushing it in front of her. "Is the house finished"
"Hmm." Fu Xiaoyao forked a piece of apple and put it in her mouth, responding vaguely.
Shao Si Nian looked at her, "When are you moving"
"These two days, I've been resting up in the hotel anyway. It's a good chance to pack my things and have someone move them." Fu Xiaoyao replied calmly.
Shao Si Nian felt the same way, so he didn't say anything more.
Just tell her before you leave, when you move, give him a call and he'll come over to help.
Fu Xiaoyao heard it, but she didn't take it to heart.
For her, moving was just a small matter, and she and Xiao Bao didn't have much stuff. All in all, it was just three or four suitcases. For many things, she planned to buy them after moving into the apartment.
So, just have a car deliver this stuff to the apartment. There's no need for him to help at all.
Besides, she had already troubled him enough with other matters, and she didn't want to trouble him with this little thing any more.
The next day.
After Shao Sinians took Xiao Bao away, the housekeeper sent over the apartment keys.
Fu Xiaoyao played with the key for a while, then threw it on the coffee table and went back to her room to attend the video conference.
As she is unable to go to the company due to a foot injury these two days, many tasks can only be handled here.
Fortunately, there haven't been any major events at the company these days that require her to make decisions. She can stay here and recuperate with peace of mind.
Ding dong!
As soon as the meeting ended, Fu Xiaoyao walked out of the room with her crutch and heard the doorbell ringing.
She couldn't help but wonder, who would come over at this time
Thinking, Fu Xiaoyao leaned on her crutches and walked toward the door. When she reached the door, she opened it to see who was there.
The person outside immediately became visible before her eyes. She was slightly surprised, it was Lu Hanchuan!
What is he doing
And it seemed like he was also carrying something in his hand.
Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips and opened the door.
Lu Hanchuan saw her, took his hand off the doorbell and said in a low voice, "Miss Shi."
Fu Xiaoyao smiled faintly at him, "Hanchuan, how could you forget You just said my name yesterday. How come after one night, you've gone back to calling me by my last name"
She quipped.
But the tone of voice sounded so strange.
It felt like a reproach, a harsh condemnation of his actions.
Is it an illusion
Lu Hanchuan pursed his lips, didn't think too much about it, and changed the address, "Xiaoyao."
Fu Xiaoyao nodded with satisfaction, "That's right. Come in."
She leaned on her cane and took a step back, letting the door swing open.
Lu Hanchuan said a word of apology after, carrying things walked in.
Fu Xiaoyao closed the door, "I haven't even asked Hanchuan why you're here"
"Visiting you." Lu Hanchuan replied.
Fu Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow. "Come to see me"
"Well, you got hurt at Lu Group. As the chairman and CEO of Lu Group, I have to be responsible for this until your injury heals." Lu Hanchuan put what he brought on the sofa. "These are all tonics that I had people prepare. They say they're good for injuries to the feet."
"Is that so So many, what's in them" Fu Xiaoyao curiously stepped forward.
Luhánchuan shook his head. "I don't know, I had someone prepare it."
He didn't ask what it was.
"I wonder if I could take a peek inside"
Lu Hanchuan nodded. "Of course, whatever is sent is yours, and you naturally have the right to open it."
"Then I won't be polite." Fu Xiaoyao gave him a bright smile, put her cane aside, sat down, and began to unpack the boxes.
After taking it apart, she stared at the mess of lingzhi, ginseng, pig's trotters, and other things in front of her, falling into a deep silence.
If she wasn't mistaken, these things should be prepared by Aunt Song. you're thinking, and I have my doubts too. I've had Jiumu investigating this all along, but haven't gotten anything concrete. Except from you." Lu Hanchuan swirled his wine glass, took a sip, then c...
