Chapter 2: Three Years Alone in an Empty House
I should have just taken you to the hospital for surgery. Why go through so much trouble"He had just seen Shao Sian come out, and he wanted to go in and see her. However, as soon as he opened the door..."Don't you want me to come back"
He gave a cold look over the people in front of him and walked towards the sofa.
"Me, me of course didn't think that!" Fu Xiaoyao forced a smile. "It's just that you came back suddenly and didn't tell me... I just couldn't react..."
Over the past three years, she had waited for him day and night, but as the number of disappointments grew, she gradually stopped expecting his return.
But just at that moment, he came back without a word! And they had that kind of relationship again. How could she react to this!
Fu Xiaoyao held her breath and walked cautiously to sit opposite him, wanting to reclaim her wife's identity.
But the other party didn't look at her, only coldly opening his mouth and saying, "From now on, I will live here."
"What...cough!" Fu Xiaoyao choked on her own words, her face flushed red, staring at him in disbelief.
Lu Hanchuan approached with a slightly displeased gaze, causing her to quickly cover her mouth for fear of disturbing him.
After a while, I couldn't help but ask, "You, you... how come you suddenly want to move back in"
"Hm" Lu Hanchuan furrowed his brow, he was sure this villa belonged to him. The woman sitting opposite him was his legal wife.
Now, his wife asked him why he wanted to live with her.
Even last night's normal conjugal act was mistaken by her as a burglar taking advantage of the situation and assaulting the female owner.
He darkened his face, set down his glass, showing no interest in continuing the boring conversation. He got up and said, “Aunt Song prepared breakfast before she left. Eat it after you finish and I’ll take you to work.”
"Okay, okay..."
She shivered, but if not for the man's aura being too terrifying, she would have asked "Are you sick"
He just abandoned her in this villa for three years, ignoring her completely. Now he not only wants to come back and live here, but also wants to send her to work
What is this, if not sick
Or has Cupid finally found her
"But... won't this be a trouble for you" She nervously clasped her hands together. Her relationship with him... taking his car to work on the first day, wasn't that too forward
"You are more than welcome to refuse. I'm not forcing you." Lu Hanchuan gave a cold glance.
Fu Xiaoyao was startled and quickly stood up, "No no no! I didn't mean that, what I just said was nonsense! Just wait for me, I'll change my clothes right away, be quick!"
Lu Hanchuan watched her rush upstairs in a fluster, only to come running back down, out of breath a short while later.
Before he could speak, Fu Xiaoyao shoved the bread on the table into her mouth and finished everything as quickly as she could.
She wouldn't dare disobey this man's orders at this juncture!
After finishing that almost-fatal breakfast, she grabbed her bag, put on her high heels, and got into the sedan parked in their garage with Lu Hánchuan.
She got into the passenger seat, closed the car door, and a whiff of men's cologne hit her nose, stirring something deep within her.
Fu Xiaoyao's face flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but think of last night's events. Her heart beat faster, and she didn't dare to speak.
On the way, Lü Hánchuan didn't pay any attention to her.
After a half-hour drive, they arrived from the villa area to the bustling city center, where modern commercial buildings could be seen from afar.
Fu Xiaoyao raised her head to look out the window and pointed toward the intersection ahead. "I'll just get off at that intersection. My company is right there."
She certainly wouldn't want this luxury car parked at the company entrance, attracting gossip from her colleagues.
"Here" Lu Hanchuan frowned slightly, parking the car at the intersection as she requested.
"Thanks so much for driving me to work today." Fu Xiaoyao unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out of the car.
"Wait a moment."
Someone beside her suddenly called out to her.
"What's wrong" Fu Xiaoyao stopped her movements suspiciously, staring blankly at the man's cold gaze. She had no idea what he was thinking, and her brows furrowed tightly.
Could it be… that he realized he'd been neglecting her for three years and was trying to apologize nowno way to deny it, so she could only grit her teeth and answer with a hint of annoyance, "I know him.""Okay, Mr. Qi Dongming here requests a meeting with you. Would you have time to come over""See me"...
