u Xiǎoyáo softly called out, lowering her head and daring not to look at the man on the hospital bed.But the man looked over at her, "What is it""No, no, let me see you, you... are you alright" Fu Xia...Such a humiliating act made Qi Dongming's heart filled with anger, and a trace of malice quickly flashed in his lowered eyes. However, he didn't dare to show it on his face at all.

He twisted his middle-aged, plump body, moving his chin away from Lu Hanchuan's toes, and mumbled sheepishly: "Han...Hanchuan, I can't be said to have betrayed you, right"

"Is that so" Lu Hanchuan adjusted his posture and looked down at him with sarcasm, "Over the years, Qi family's company has been able to develop to its current state, all thanks to my support. The Qi family's business partners are also willing to cooperate with you because of the relationship between the Lu Group. That is to say, in the business world, the Qi family and the Lu family are tied together, but you..."

Having said that, Lu Hanchuan suddenly hummed softly, frowning slightly.

He turned his head to look at the woman beside him, "What were you just doing"

Fu Xiaoyao retracted her hand from his waist without changing her expression, and said lightly, "Nothing, just punishing you a little."

Why did he help the Qi family all these years

"Punishment" Lu Hanchuan repeated the two words, then with a slight thought, he understood what she meant by punishment.

"You're being awfully petty now." He pinched her cheek.

Fu Xiaoyao patted his hand down, "I'm not being petty. You can support any company you want, it doesn't concern me, but only the Qi family is unacceptable. So I'm definitely unhappy about it."

Qi Dongming on the ground heard this, raised his eyes to look at Fu Xiaoyao, that look was indescribable complexity, with anger, discontent, and a hint of emotion that was hard to understand......

"Don't worry, I won't let you down." Lu Hanchuan squeezed Fu Xiaoyao's hand, assuring her.

Fu Xiaoyao snorted and said nothing.

Lu Hanchuan turned his gaze back to Qi Dongming, the tenderness on his face disappearing, replaced by a cold indifference. “Over the years, your Qi family has benefited greatly from backing the Lu family. I think you should be clear about this. I don't ask for your Qi family to help my Lu family in any way, but how did you do it You turned your back on me and sided with Lu family's enemies. So why should I save someone who betrayed me”

"..." Qi Dongming was speechless after being spoken to by Lu Hanchuan. His weathered face flushed red, and his whole body felt short of breath.

"Qi Ya, I won't save her. Her life and death have nothing to do with me, so you've come to the wrong person."

Lu Hanchuan's words extinguished all hope in Qi Dongming, he was completely flustered. "Hanchuan, you can't do this! I know that both my daughter and I have done wrong to you, but Xiaoya has had a relationship with you after all. Can't you look at the past and save her Are you really willing to let her die"

"Yeah, do you really have the heart to" Fu Xiaoyao followed Qi Dongming's words, her gaze fixed on the man.

She also wants to know this answer.

As Qī Dōngmíng said, Qī Yǎ had been with him, and the two of them must have had some sort of relationship. And men often find it hardest to forget the feelings they had for their exes.

So, she really wanted to know if he was truly heartless enough not to save Qi Ya.

Fu Xiaoyao's words took Qi Dongming by surprise for a moment.

He didn't know that Fu Xiaoyao was testing Lu Hanchuan's attitude towards Qi Ya, and he thought she was helping him persuade Lu Hanchuan to save Qi Ya.

Therefore, when looking into her eyes again, besides the complexity, there was also a hint of satisfaction.

“Right, Hanchuan, you wouldn’t bear to see this happen, would you” Qi Dongming moved closer to Lu Hanchuan again. “I know you still have feelings for Xiaoya. As long as you save Xiaoya, I’ll do anything you ask. I promise, anything at all. She’s my only daughter. I can’t lose her.”

He feigned a pitiful plea, hoping to successfully touch Lu Hanchuan's heart.

However, Lu Hanchuan remained unmoved, which made Fu Xiaoyao quite unhappy.

She stood up, turned her head to look at the man beside her, “Hanchuan, can you go out”

"How" Lu Hanchuan looked up and met her gaze.

Fu Xiaoyao slowly turned her head back, fixing her gaze on Qi Dongming. "I have some things I want to talk to him about privately."

Knowing what she wanted to talk about, Lu Hanchuan stood up without objection, “Okay, call me when you’re done.”

After that, he put his hands in his pockets and strode out with long legs.

Click!

The door closed.

Only Fu Xiaoyao stood in the room, and Qi Dongming was tied to the ground, unable to get up.

For some reason, Qi Dongming felt a little uneasy. He stared at his toes, shifted his body back, and created some distance between himself and Fu Xiaoyao. "What do you want to talk to me about"

Fu Xiaoyao ignored his words, her eyes filled with an unreadable look as she circled him. Finally, she stopped before him, lightly opening her pale lips, "You just said you only have one daughter, Qi Ya, right"

Hearing this, Qi Dongming's pupils dilated, a flicker of guilt flashed across his face, and his speech became stammered, "Yes... yes..."

"Really" Fu Xiaoyao raised her arms, looking down at him with a hint of mockery, "But I heard that Qi Ya has another sister"

"Nonsense!" Qi Dongming retorted, as if he'd been stung, "Where did you hear about a sister I have no illegitimate daughters!"

"No way" It sounded like the biggest joke in the world. Fu Xiaoyao burst into laughter, her laughter filled with sarcasm.

Qí Dōngmíng's heart grew more and more uneasy. He glared at Fù Xiǎoyáo angrily, "What are you laughing at"

"I laugh at your shamelessness!" Fu Xiaoyao retorted.

Qi Dongming was furious, "You..."

“Me Did I say something wrong” Fu Xiaoyao pointed at herself, “Don’t you find it shameless Cheating on your legal wife while she's pregnant, and even putting the child of your mistress above your own wife's child. What else could this be but shameless Qi Ya is that mistress's child, isn't she just your illegitimate daughter”

Qi Dongming was so angry, he wanted to retort, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't say them.

Fu Xiaoyao laughed again, "Nothing to say, right It seems you know in your heart, Qi Ya is just a illegitimate daughter, only me!"

She patted her chest and leaned close to Qi Dongming, glaring at him with hatred, "Only I am your rightful daughter!"

Qi Dongming's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, "You... how did you know..."

"Huh" Hearing this, Fu Xiaoyao's almond eyes narrowed suspiciously, "What do you mean Don't you know I'm your daughter too"

Qi Dongming only then realized he had spoken too much. He quickly turned his head away, not daring to meet her furious eyes. He stammered, “I… I don’t understand what you’re saying. I don’t know anything!”

"No!" Fu Xiaoyao reached out and grabbed Qi Dongming's chin, forcefully turning his face. "You know, you know I'm your daughter, don't try to lie to me. No wonder your eyes looked so complicated before, it turns out you knew all along that I was your daughter. Tell me, when did you find out"

She questioned loudly.

Qi Dongming kept his mouth shut and refused to answer.

Fu Xiaoyao's emotions flared, she tightened her grip, squeezing Qi Dongming's hand painfully. "Say it! When did you find out Was it when you first saw me, or..."

"I don't know, I have no other daughters, only Xiaoya is my daughter!" Qi Dongming suddenly turned his head and shook her hand away.

Fu Xiaoyao, hearing his words like a declaration, felt a blankness in her mind for a moment. Her whole being quieted down.

After a few seconds, she calmed down, and the look of anger on her face gradually returned to normal.

“Is that so You only have one daughter, Qi Ya. It seems you don't acknowledge my existence. That's understandable, after all, a man who cheats on his wife while she's pregnant doesn't truly love her. How could he possibly feel anything for the child growing inside her I overthought things. I actually had expectations of you!” Fu Xiaoyao laughed at herself, tears streaming down her face as she laughed.

"Expecting something" Chi Tung-ming's eyes flashed, thinking of something. A glimmer of calculation crossed his eyes, then he put on a loving face, "You really want to recognize me"he felt a shiver run down her spine at his gaze and was eventually defeated by him. She sighed, then fetched some clothes to change him. 。During the clothes-changing process, she kept her head tilted...
