Chapter 268: eavesdropping
lage.”Saying that, he poured two more cups of tea.Lu Hánchuan took the cup but didn't drink. Instead, he handed it to Fu Xiayao. "Grandfather Fu, you should actually be thanking her, not me."Fu Xiaoya...Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her eyes, "It's not that bad, it's just that I drank too much alcohol yesterday. My head was a little dizzy when I woke up today. I had another two cups just now, so my head feels dizzy again. I'm going to ask Auntie Song to help me make some hangover soup."
Saying that, she got up and went to the kitchen.
Just two steps in, and my foot got caught on the coffee table leg.
Without warning, she gasped and fell forward.
Lu Hanchuan saw this scene, his pupils shrank slightly, and he hurriedly placed the wine glass in his hand on the tea table, then reached out to grab her arm.
But he was a bit slow to pull her, and when he did, Fu Xiaoyao was almost falling. As a result, Lu Hanchuan didn't have time to use his strength before she pulled him down with her, causing them both to fall in front of the sofa. Fortunately, there was a carpet in that area, so they didn't feel much pain when they fell.
But Fu Xiaoyao was pinned down by Lu Hanzchuan, unable to move. It made her feel quite uncomfortable.
"That..." She blushed and pushed against the man's chest, "Could you get up first"
Lu Hchuan remained motionless, his pair of deep and dark eyes fixed on her.
His blazing gaze made Fu Xiaoyao's heart beat faster, her breath coming in short gasps, "You're heavy."
She opened her mouth again.
This time, Lu Hanchuan moved slightly, raising his upper body, but he still didn't stand up. Instead, he used his arms to prop himself up on either side of her body, pinning her to the ground. "You..."
Before he could speak, a sudden cry came from behind him.
Lu Hanchuan furrowed his brows and turned his head to look. He saw Song Yi standing at the kitchen doorway, staring at them in surprise.
"Aunt Song!" Lu Hanchuan called out in a deep voice.
Aunt Song came back to her senses, her old face full of embarrassment. "Cough... well, that is, I just came out to get something."
"Did you get that thing" Lu Hanchuan asked coldly.
Aunt Song's eyes rolled, "Taken taken, then I should go back too. You two continue, I won't disturb you."
After saying that, she covered her lips and walked away with a smirk.
The living room fell silent again, Fu Xiaoyao's face flushed a deep red.
She never thought that she and Lu Hanchuan would be seen by Aunt Song in this posture, and even laughed at. Now she's embarrassed to see anyone!
Fu Xiaoyao squeezed her eyes shut, lifting her hand to cover her face tightly.
Lu Hanchuan, seeing her actions, took her hand from his face with one hand. "What are you covering your face for"
"What do you say Aunt Song just saw it," Fu Xiaoyao said with shame and anger.
Lu Hanchuan smirked, "So what if you saw it, she didn't say she left, did she Besides, she let us continue, didn't she"
"Continue" Fu Xiaoyao jolted awake, her eyes wide. "What do you want to do"
"What do you think" Lu Hanchuan countered.
Fu Xiaoyao's eyes widened, "You want to be here again"
"What's not possible!" Lu Hanchuan said as he reached out and grabbed the red wine glass from the tea table.
Then, under her puzzled gaze, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.
After finishing his drink, he put the cup back and with the same hand, he pinched her chin, forcing her to open her mouth. Then, he leaned down and kissed her, slowly pouring the red wine from his mouth into hers.
"You..." Fu Xiaoyao was stunned. After she reacted to what he was doing, just as she was about to speak, she was choked by the red wine in her mouth and coughed incessantly.
Lu Hanchuan leaned down to look at her, quietly waiting for her to finish coughing.
After she had coughed her fill, he leaned down again and kissed her lips, swallowing any words of accusation she might have uttered about his offering her red wine.
Wine, by its very nature, has an inebriating effect. Coupled with Fu Xiaoyao's initial slight intoxication and then being teased by Lu Hanchuan like this, how could she withstand it She quickly lost her reason and reached up to grasp his neck.
As soon as he sensed the woman starting to respond, Lu Hanchuan was like someone who had received encouragement. His kissing became less gentle and slightly more forceful, turning dominant.
Gradually, the atmosphere in the living room became increasingly sultry. Before long, clothes were scattered all over the floor, followed by some suggestive sounds that filled the air...
The next day.
Fu Xiaoyao got out of Lu Hanchuan's car, waved goodbye to him, and was about to leave.
But she hadn't taken a few steps when Lu Hanchuan suddenly stood in front of the elevator and called to her, "From now on, we'll have lunch in my office."
"Huh" Fu Xiaoyao was taken aback. Before she could ask why, Lu Hanchuan had already entered the elevator and closed the door.
She could only swallow the words that went unspoken.
It's fine to have lunch there, just eat there. It saves a few bucks, which is pretty good.
Thinking about it, Fu Xiaoyao hummed a tune and stepped into another elevator, heading to the planning department.
Yu Lin immediately sized her up from head to toe upon seeing her, then tapped her chin playfully and quipped, "Wow, you're glowing! Looks like you got quite a bit of pampering last night."
Fu Xiaoyao's face instantly flushed red upon hearing this, "What did you say!"
"Looks like I was right" Yulin chuckled.
Fu Xiaoyao gave her an annoyed pat. "Alright, hurry up and turn on your computer. It's time for work."
"Yes, yes, yes." Yu Lin nodded nonchalantly.
Morning always went by quickly, and by noon, Fu Xiaoyao declined Yu Lin's invitation to eat together. Then she avoided everyone and snuck to the top floor of the building to look for Lu Hanchuan.
As Fu Xiaoyao reached the CEO's office door, she raised her hand just about to knock when she realized the door was ajar, not fully closed. There were faint sobs coming from inside.
Wait, crying
How could there be crying in Lu Hanchuan's office
Fu Xiaoyao felt a strange mix of curiosity and bewilderment. She bent down slightly, pressing her ear against the crack in the door, intending to eavesdrop.
But the result gave her a surprising and unexpected sound.
It's Qi Ya!
How could she be here
Fu Xiaoyao's heart ached slightly, and she subconsciously bit her lip.
At this moment, she was no longer satisfied with merely eavesdropping. She quietly pushed the door inward, widening the gap so that she could see through the opening what was happening inside.
Only to see Qi Ya wearing a white dress standing before Lu Hanchuan's desk, she was saying something, and while she spoke, she choked back sobs, her tears streaming down her face like pear blossoms in the rain, pitiful to behold.
"Hanchuan, I beg you, let my father go. I know you hate us for what we did, but it was my idea. If you really want revenge, take it out on me…"
"My meaning, I already made it very clear on the phone yesterday, didn't I Why do you have to come in person to beg me" Lu Hanchuan said coldly.
Qi Ya's small face was almost translucently white. "Han Chuan, are you really so heartless and ruthless"
"It wasn't me who was ruthless and heartless, it was you. When you made your move back then, didn't you show any mercy How come now that I've retaliated, I'm the cruel one" Lu Hanchuan sneered.
Qi Ya was greatly struck and took two steps back. "But things have passed for so long, can't we just let it go I am willing to kneel down and apologize to Ms. Fu, Hanchuan, you just let my father go, he is old, I can't imagine what he would become in prison, besides, Qi family's company still needs him."
Hearing this, Fu Xiaoyao rolled her eyes, thinking with disdain in her heart.
Kneel and apologize
If kneeling and apologizing could make up for everything, then what's the point of having lawsthe sink.Luchuan glanced at him. "Want some more"Fu Xiaoyao's eyes rolled, a bit hesitant.Seeing this, Lu Hanchuan added: "If you still want some, I won't give it to you. You've already eaten too much...
