even though the office air conditioner wasn't on. It was as if she were standing in an ice cave. Her anxiety intensified, making it hard for her to breathe.Such anxiety persisted until noon, when the...Fu Xiaoyao's eyes dimmed, and she couldn't help but mock herself inwardly.

Although she had asked him to do it, seeing him actually follow through made her feel resentful.

Is this her being dramatic

Lu Hanchuan didn't know what Fu Xiaoyao was struggling with at the moment, nor did he notice her low spirits. He focused all his attention on the phone.

In two minutes, he abruptly stood up, his pupils shrinking to the size of needles, "Shao Si Nian, what did you say"

Fu Xiaoyao was startled by Lu Hanchuan, her body trembling. "Hanchuan, what's wrong What happened"

Lu Hanchuan looked at her gloomily, without answering.

Fu Xiaoyao's lips trembled, "Wh...what What are you looking at me for"

"If Xiaoya gets hurt, I won't let you off!" Lu Hanchuan said this inexplicable sentence to her coldly, then picked up the chair behind him and walked away with his coat.

He hurried along, looking very anxious.

In a short while, Fu Xiaoyao heard the sound of a car outside the villa. When she came to her senses and chased after it, he was gone.

Fu Xiaoyao's pale little face stared at his departing figure, her body sliding down the marble pillar outside the villa until she crouched on the ground, hugging herself. A feeling of bewilderment and sadness filled her.

It was a wonderful meal, he said he'd leave and just left, not even an explanation. He even threw out a warning to her.

What do you mean, if Xiao Ya gets into trouble, you won't let her off the hook

Could something have happened to Qi Ya

"Madam, why are you all alone here Where's your husband" Song Yi came out of the villa and saw Fu Xiaoyao squatting on the ground alone, so she hurriedly pulled her up.

Fu Xiaoyao squatted for a long time and stood up, feeling a little dizzy and lightheaded. Her body swayed slightly, and her vision was blurry.

Seeing this, Aunt Song quickly let her lean against her.

After resting for a while, the dizziness finally subsided. Fu Xiaoyao stood up from Song Yi's arms and smiled weakly, "Thank you, Aunt Song."

"What are you thanking for, come in quickly." Aunt Song helped her into the villa.

After she sat down, he immediately went to the kitchen and poured her a glass of sugar water.

Fu Xiaoyao drank a cup, and her pale face gradually regained some redness. She then answered Song Yi's question from before, "HANCHUAN is gone."

"Leaving already" Aunt Song exclaimed.

Fu Xiaoyao held her water glass, her voice hoarse as she replied: "Yeah, Qi Ya called him, and he left after answering the phone."

"What" Auntie Song's expression darkened, "Did that surname Qi take him away"

Fu Xiaoyao nodded.

Aunt Song was so angry she spun around in circles, "How could Mr. [Name] be like this Doesn't he know today is your birthday"

He knew, but today was also Qi Ya's birthday. Fu Xiaoyao wryly smiled.

Aunt Song was taken aback, then her face grew even uglier. "Even if today is that Qi surname's birthday, so what But the master promised your wife that he would be with you today. How can he run off to find that Qi surname now"

Fu Xiaoyao lowered her head, making it impossible to see the expression on her face. "Perhaps something happened to Miss Qi Ya."

"What could she possibly do" Auntie Song scoffed. "That woman is so selfish, to the extreme. When others are in trouble, she's never affected."

“Aunt Song, don’t say that. I saw Hanchuan looking very anxious when he was taking the phone call just now. Maybe Miss Qi is really in trouble.” Fu Xiaoyao recalled the look on Lu Hanchuan’s face before he left. That worry and anxiety stung her heart deeply.

"Shall I give Mr. so-and-so a call to confirm" Aunt Song suggested.

Fu Xiaoyao shook her head. "Forget it."

"What are you going to do then" Auntie Song looked at her with some concern. "It's your birthday today, Madam, and you haven't even told him about the pregnancy."

Fu Xiaoyao clenched her hands, a strained smile on her face. "It's okay, I'll wait for him. It's still early, he should be back."

"I hope so," Aunt Song sighed, then took her hand. "Come on, Madam, let's not worry about Mr. for now. Have dinner first."

"I have no appetite," Fu Xiaoyao refused.

That table of dishes was made for Lu Hanchuan.

Now that he's gone, she's lost her appetite.

She had no appetite at all.

"You can't have no appetite, you have to eat something," Aunt Song urged.

"I really don't have an appetite," Fu Xiaoyao waved her hand.

"What about the dinner" Auntie Song asked.

Fu Xiaoyao thought for a moment, "Just throw it away."

“It’s such a shame to pour it away. Maybe I should put it in the fridge first In case Mr. comes back later, I can warm it up for him” Auntie Song said.

Fu Xiaoyao casually hummed, "Suit yourself."

"Alright, then I'll do that." Aunt Song walked towards the kitchen.

Fu Xiaoyao turned her head and glanced at something before putting down her water cup and going upstairs for a quick nap, waiting for Lu Hanzchuan to return.

Although she didn't think there was much chance of him coming back, she just wanted to keep hoping.

Maybe when she wakes up, he'll really be back.

With such hopes, Fu Xiaoyao quickly fell asleep.

However, three hours later, she woke up and Lu Hanchuan was still not back.

It's already 5 pm, and there are seven hours left until her birthday.

He still hasn't come back. Maybe he really won't be coming back today......

"Aunt Song," Fu Xiaoyao retracted her gaze from the window and softly called out to Aunt Song.

Aunt Song came out of the bathroom, wiping her hands, "Madam, are you awake"

"Hmm," Fu Xiaoyao nodded. "When I fell asleep, Hanchuan didn't come back, did he"

Aunt Song hesitated for a moment, then sighed, "No."

"Indeed." Fu Xiaoyao gave a wry smile. "Do you have her phone number"

Aunt Song shook her head.

Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip, "I understand."

She got up and walked toward the door.

Seeing this, Aunt Song hurriedly stopped her, "Madam, where are you going"

"I'm going to the hospital." Fu Xiaoyao replied.

She wondered if he hadn't come back because he was celebrating Qi Ya's birthday, or if something had really happened to Qi Ya.

Aunt Song naturally guessed her thoughts, but she didn't support it. "Madam, you just stay at home, what if you go to the hospital and see something sad, that would affect your mood, and it wouldn't be good for the child in your belly."

Speaking of children, Fu Xiaoyao subconsciously touched her belly, “But I can’t help but want to take a look. I don’t know why, ever since Hanchuan left, my heart hasn’t been at peace.”

Especially Lu Hanchuan's warning to her lingered in her mind.

"I know, Mrs. [Last Name], you're not at ease, but after you see it for yourself, won't you feel better" sighed Auntie Song.

Fu Xiaoyao opened her mouth but said nothing.

Aunt Song continued, "Madam, you don't have to go to the hospital. When your husband returns, I will ask him what he went there for. If he doesn't tell me, I will ask the master to intervene."

"Don't, don't tell grandpa," Fu Xiaoyao stopped her.

Aunt Song let out a cold snort. "Master has been acting increasingly uncharacteristically lately. On one hand, he claims he won't have anything to do with that woman Qi Ya, but on the other hand, he remains entangled with her. If this continues, who knows what trouble it might cause In my opinion, it's time for the master to intervene and sever their connection completely."

“That’s what I’m saying, but if I do that, Han Chuan will definitely blame me. He’ll think it was me who made Grandpa do this, so forget it. I won’t go to the hospital. I want to go for a walk.” Fu Xiaoyao slightly raised her head and took a breath.

"Where are you going" asked Auntie Song.rst, come to my office." 。Tang Yi put down his coffee cup and picked up the flash drive. 。Okay 。Fu Xiaoyao stood up and followed him. 。Tang Yi's office was very large. Unlike Lu Hanchuan's minimalist...
