over her, making her feel choked and uncomfortable."It's not that I don't want to improve, it's just that no one has taught me these things." Fu Xiaoyao tightened her grip on the chopsticks."Nobody t..."Enough!" Lu Hanchuan growled with an unperturbed face.

Qi Ya's body trembled, almost dropping the phone.

Lu Hanchuan pursed his thin lips and said coldly, "Do you think I'm someone who can be threatened Qi Ya, you're both stupid and venomous. You don't know how to reflect on yourself, but instead you come to ask me if it was because of someone else that I suddenly changed my mind and had Qi Dongming imprisoned. What difference does it make if you find out the truth Will I release Qi Dongming just because you find out"

Qi Ya was stunned.

She never would have thought she'd be called both stupid and venomous.

And the man who cursed her, was once the one who held her in the palm of his hand.

Such a disparity made her unable to bear it!

"Han Chuan, how could you say that to me" Qi Ya cried, heartbroken. "Was I wrong to be suspicious If it wasn't Fu Xiao Yao, why would you make my father go to jail Han Chuan, you've changed, you're not the same Lu Han Chuan I used to know."

"Qi Ya, you're wrong about this. I haven't changed, the one who has changed is you." Lu Hanchuan corrected her.

Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips.

Although she didn't know what Qi Ya was like before, from Shao Si Nian and Aunt Song, she learned...

Qi Ya's nature has always been like this, good at disguising herself, never truly changing for the better, right

He just couldn't see clearly before because he had his own filters on, that's why he's saying Qi Ya has changed now.

Fu Xiaoyao's little movement was not missed by Lu Hanchuan, which made him raise an eyebrow.

What did she just mean

Are you looking down on him

"I changed Hanchuan, you said I changed" Qi Ya's voice pulled Lu Hanchuan's thoughts back from Fu Xiaoyao.

Lu Hanchuan coldly pursed his lips, "Yes, you've become venomous and selfish. For your own sake, you don't hesitate to use anyone. You should be thankful that you got sick, which allowed me to let you go. Otherwise, you should be in prison with Qi Dongming now."

Qi Ya was taken aback by his words, incredulously asking, "Han Chuan, you...you also wanted to put me in jail"

Her voice was noticeably sharper than before.

Lu Hanchuan nodded. “That’s right, so you should think about how to atone now, instead of coming to me to release Qi Dongming. Besides, Qi Ya, I tell you, don't even think about using any extreme measures to threaten me into releasing Qi Dongming. If you dare to do that, I dare to make Qi Dongming pay an even worse price.”

"No......Hanchuan you can't..."

"I can, as long as you dare. I can do it, so take care of yourself." Lu Hanchuan interrupted her and then quickly cut off the phone.

He switched off his phone and tossed it aside, looking at Fu Xiaoyao, "Are you feeling better now She came to me, but I didn't agree to release Qi Dongming."

Fu Xiaoyao was delighted inside, but she didn't show it on her face. "You haven't agreed, but Qi Ya won't give up. She will definitely keep looking for you."

"The result is the same." Lu Hanchuan said as he sat down.

Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyes, "If you can do that, of course it would be better, but I'm still worried something might go wrong."

"No, don't think too much about it. Come on, let's have something to eat." Lu Hánchuan pulled her hand.

Fu Xiaoyao hurriedly shook her head, "No, no, I just had a meal and I'm already full. You eat it yourself."

If she eats with him again, her stomach will be bursting.

I just took two antacids, and my stomach is finally starting to feel a little better. I definitely don't want to go through that again.

Lu Hanchuan saw that Fu Xiaoyao refused very crisply and didn't force her. He got up and walked towards the dining table.

Fu Xiaoyao sat on the sofa, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV. She watched TV, which was a way of keeping him company during his meal.

By the time he finished eating, half an hour had passed.

Lu Hanchuan took out a bottle of red wine and raised it to Fu Xiaoyao, "Would you like some"

Fu Xiaoyao had originally wanted to refuse, but then she thought that today was a good day, so she swallowed the refusal she was about to say and changed her words to, "Okay."

Let's just celebrate Qi Dongming going to jail.

Thinking this way, Fu Xiaoyao no longer resisted drinking and readily took the cup and sipped it, "It's good."

Lu Hanchuan chuckled lightly, "This is the most authentic Lafite, specially shipped from a foreign wine cellar."

"So that's how it is, then it must be very expensive" Fu Xiaoyao looked at the crimson liquid in the highball glass and asked.

Lu Hanzhan shook his glass lightly and replied nonchalantly, "It's not very expensive, this cup of yours is probably worth a few tens of thousands."

"What" Fu Xiaoyao leaned forward, almost falling off the sofa, "Several...several tens of thousands"

"Hmm."

"This is so expensive" Fu Xiaoyao looked at the bottle of wine on the tea table as if she had seen a ghost.

Lu Hanchuan's lips curled into a slight smile, "Expensive"

"Uh......Big shot, I was wrong. It's not expensive for you at all." Fu Xiaoyao twitched the corner of her eye, realizing belatedly that this was the richest person around. For him, a bottle of wine worth hundreds of thousands wouldn't be expensive.

She remembered that the top-grade Da Hong Pao tea from her grandfather's place was truly expensive, with 10 grams costing almost a million.

It's truly unimaginable how wealthy people live.

"You shouldn't be surprised, and you should get used to it. In the future, you'll attend more and more banquets, meet more and more people, and alcohol is the best icebreaker. So don't think it's expensive, you should even learn to appreciate it." Lu Hanchuan finished speaking and drained the glass in one gulp.

Fu Xiaoyao listened to his words, pondered for a moment, then nodded, "I understand. I'll learn."

"Well, there's no need to rush. Just take your time and learn." Lu Hanchuan poured himself another cup and then asked her if she wanted one.

Fu Xiaoyao waved her hand and refused.

Lu Hanchuan didn't dissuade him. After putting down the wine bottle, he suddenly asked, "When are you moving back to the villa with me"

"Move back to the villa" Fu Xiaoyao was slightly stunned.

Lu Hanchuan raised his chin, "You moved out before because you harbored resentment towards me for not seeking justice for our children, but now that Qi Dongming is in prison, shouldn't you come back with me"

Fu Xiaoyao fell silent.

To be honest, she thinks living here is pretty good and she doesn't really want to move back.

But what he said is also right, now that Qi Dongming has gone in, she continues to live here, and it doesn't make sense.

Thinking to herself, Fu Xiaoyao let out a barely perceptible sigh, "Tomorrow."

Lu Hanchuan's eyes flashed a trace of surprise, "Good."

He didn't expect her to refuse, but she surprisingly agreed to go back to the villa with him so easily.

He was even thinking, it didn't matter if she didn't go back. He could just move all his things over here and live with her from now on.

Since she agreed to go back with him, there was naturally no need to move her things over.

"In two days, come back to the old house with me," Lu Hanchuan said after taking a sip of wine.

Fu Xiaoyao yawned, "Why go back to the old house"

"Grandma's death anniversary is coming up." Lu Hanchuan replied.

"Oh, I see. I had forgotten about that."

She felt a little embarrassed.

Although she hadn't visited the old house to pay respects to the Lu family ancestors for the past three years, she would prepare some appropriate gifts according to what Auntie Song said about whose memorial day it was at the old house, and ask Auntie Song to send them over.

But this time, on her grandmother's death anniversary, she almost forgot.

"What should I prepare when I go there" Fu Xiaoyao asked.

Lu Hanchuan pressed his brow bone, "No need, just your presence is enough."

"Alright then." Fu Xiaoyao nodded, indicating she understood, but in her heart, she had already made up her mind. Just like the past few years, she would prepare some appropriate gifts to take with her.

"Are you tired" Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow and asked when he saw her yawn again.ust standing there Come on, I'm leaving!" Lu Hanchuan urged when he saw the woman staring at his face, speechless and not moving to kiss him.Fu Xiaoyao came back to her senses with a start, blushing a...
