d in her dream."Did someone come in""Madam, did you perhaps get the wrong thing I got up early to prepare breakfast and didn't notice anything amiss in the house!""No!" she was close to tears, "Auntie...Fu Xiaoyao pointed at the soft adhesive on his neck, pretending not to know what was underneath.
She hadn't forgotten that Lu Hanchuan had once said that Lu Hanting was taken away by an enemy of the Lu family and might have been cultivated by that enemy as a tool for revenge against the Lu family.
So she couldn't directly ask him about the birthmark, she could only beat around the bush, lest she startle the snake.
"You're talking about this" Tang Yi followed Fu Xiaoyao's direction and touched his neck.
Fu Xiaoyao nodded, "Yes, before this you didn't post anything, now posting this, could it be that you were really injured"
"I'm fine, just a rather unsightly scar on the top." Tang Yi replied lightly.
Fu Xiaoyao nervously clutched the flesh on her thigh, "When you say birthmark, what kind of birthmark is it"
"Well, are you curious" Tang Yi narrowed his long, peach-shaped eyes at her.
His pupils were very dark, not the amber color of ordinary people's. They were completely black, like a whirlpool, as if they would suck you in.
Fu Xiaoyao's heart was pounding, afraid that he would see through her. She quickly shifted her gaze away and replied in a stiff voice: "I am a little curious, after all, a birthmark on the neck is quite rare."
“It’s quite rare, but I won’t tell you what it looks like.” Tang Yi smirked. “Unless you divorce Mr. Lu and be with me, I’ll show you every day Not just the birthmark, every inch of my body, you can have a good look.”
Fu Xiaoyao's temples slid down a few black lines, "You're enough!"
Tang Yi burst out laughing, "Alright, I'm just kidding. The car is fixed and I should be going now. Bye!"
He waved and walked away very gracefully.
Fu Xiaoyao's small face gradually calmed down, looking at his back thoughtfully, her heart was very complicated.
He had a birthmark, still red, which perfectly matched Lu Hanling's characteristics, but she couldn't be sure if he was Lu Hanling.
"Madam, please sit tight, I'm about to drive." The driver, Uncle Liu, suddenly spoke from the driver's seat, interrupting Fu Xiaoyao's contemplation.
Fu Xiaoyao's eyes flickered, then she came back to her senses and rolled up the car window. "Okay, let's go," she said.
The car gradually started.
Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her cheeks, her heart already made up. Regardless of whether Tang Yi was Lu Hanling or not, just based on his birthmark, it was worth investigating.
After she arrived at the company, she definitely had to tell Lu Hanchuan about this discovery.
After all, she couldn't just let this go since it was a rare lead about Lu Hanling.
Thinking about it, Fu Xiaoyao took a deep breath and temporarily suppressed all the emotions and thoughts in her mind. She decided to talk about everything after arriving at the company.
However, when she arrived at the company, it was already more than half an hour past the start of work, meaning she had gloriously overslept!
The group leader called her into his office and gave her a stern reprimand. He also made her write a 500-word self-critique before letting her go.
"Xiaoyao, are you alright" Yulin watched Fu Xiaoyao return with her head downcast and couldn't help but lower her voice to ask with concern.
Fu Xiaoyao shook her head. "I'm fine, just my hand ached from writing the self-criticism."
"Your boss still made you write a self-critique" Yu Lin's eyes widened in surprise.
Fu Xiaoyao shrugged, “Yeah.”
"Have you finished writing it"
"If I don't finish, can I come back" Fu Xiaoyao chuckled wryly.
"Well, I see," Yu Lin sized her up and down, then asked, "But why are you suddenly late Did something happen"
"No, it's just traffic." Fu Xiaoyao opened her computer. "Alright, Linlin, don't ask anymore, let's work."
"Fine." Yu Lin heard her say that, and could only suppress the urge to chat. She turned her head back and continued working.
At noon, Fu Xiaoyao shut down her computer and without waiting for Yulin to ask her where she was going to eat lunch, she immediately got up and dashed out of the large office.
That speed, looking at Yu Lin dumbfounded, thought her house was on fire, otherwise why would she run so fast, not even a word of greeting.
In fact, Fu Xiaoyao was indeed very anxious, and she had been anxious since morning until now.
She desperately wanted to tell Lu Hankan about the birthmark on Tang Yi's body, but she couldn't find him during work hours. So for those few hours in the morning, it was pure torture for her.
She always longed for time to pass quickly so she could get off work, but the more she wished, the slower time seemed to crawl.
Now that it was finally lunchtime, she couldn't bear to wait any longer and naturally hurried to find Lu Hanchuan.
As Fu Xiaoyao reached out to knock on Lu Hankan's office door, the door suddenly swung open from the inside.
Joe walked out holding a stack of files and saw her, blinking in surprise. "Madam"
"Is he in there" Fu Xiaoyao pointed behind him.
After Qiao Mu understood who "he" referred to, she nodded slightly. “Mr. Lu is here, but Mr. Lu is very busy right now. If Madam wants to eat, she can only eat in the nearby lounge.”
"Let's not rush to eat. I just have something very important to tell him. Could you please tell him for me and let me in" Fu Xiaoyao pleaded.
"This..."
Just when Qiao Mu was a little embarrassed, Lu Hanchuan's voice came from inside, cold and clear, with a hint of fatigue, "Qiao Mu, who is outside"
Fu Xiaoyao made a pleading gesture to Qiao Mu.
Jiu Mu sighed and truthfully replied, “Mr. Lu, it’s the madam. She said she has something to tell you.”
"Let her in," Lu Hanchuan ordered.
Fu Xiaoyao smiled, quickly thanked Qiao for his speed, then stepped into the office.
As soon as she stepped inside, she was hit with a strong scent of coffee—the kind without milk or sugar.
Fu Xiaoyao instinctively cast her gaze towards Lu Hanzchuan's desk and sure enough, she saw a cup of coffee that had already been half-drunk.
Looking at this cup of coffee, Fu Xiaoyao's lips moved slightly, her eyes showing a hint of confusion.
She clearly remembered that he hadn't had coffee for a long time, only drinking tea. Now how come he was drinking it again
"Qiao Mu just said that you have something to tell me, what is it" Lu Hanchuan put the file in his hand together and looked up at Fu Xiaoyao.
Fu Xiaoyao first sized him up for a few moments before answering, "It's about your younger brother."
He really hadn't slept all night, with a faint dark circle under his eyelids. He even hadn't changed out of yesterday's clothes.
This is enough to show how hurriedly he left this morning, not even returning to his room before leaving. Who knows what urgent matter could have made him so rushed
And this coffee, I'm afraid, is what he uses to stay awake.
"Han Ling" Lu Hanchuan pressed his temples.
Fu Xiaoyao nodded, "Yes, you didn't say before that your brother had a red birthmark on his neck I just remembered, I've seen it somewhere."
Lu Hanchuan's hand froze on his brow. "What do you mean You remember"
"Yes."
"Who is it" Lu Hanchuan lowered his hand, looking at her eagerly.
Fu Xiaoyao clenched her hands tightly and slowly uttered two words, "Tang Yi!"
Lu Hanchuan was stunned for a few seconds, thinking he had misheard. He asked again, "Who are you talking about"
"Tang Yi!" Fu Xiaoyao replied.
This time, Lu Hanchuan couldn't convince himself that he had heard wrong. He furrowed his handsome brows, remained silent for a long time before finally speaking, "How could it be him"
"I can hardly believe it was him, but that's the truth. I did see a red birthmark on his neck."
"What made you think of this today" Lu Hanchuan asked, looking into her eyes. she held back.I'll go in first."Hmm." Lu Hanchuan replied expressionlessly.Fu Xiaoyao turned the doorknob and pushed the door open.Qi Ya heard the sound and immediately came over, "Hello.""Hello." Fu...
