ing chest.She was stunned!ChestIs it still a man'sFu Xiaoyao swallowed nervously, bearing the pain as she struggled to turn her head. She saw Lu Hanchuan lying beside her, fast asleep.When did he come..."I'm sorry!" Lu Hanchuan apologized.

Fu Xiaoyao was taken aback. "What are you apologizing for"

"I've figured some things out." Lu Hanchuan buried his head in her neck.

Fu Xiaoyao blinked. "So what, does that have anything to do with your apology"

"It's okay." Lu Hanchuan chuckled softly, not intending to explain the reason for his apology. He simply rubbed her neck and changed the subject, "I have some good news to tell you."

"What good news" Fu Xiaoyao yawned.

She was suddenly woken up by him. People hadn't quite come to their senses yet.

"Qi Dongming is going back to China." Lu Hanchuan said.

Fu Xiaoyao's eyes widened suddenly, "Return to China"

"Hmm."

"Why did he come back to the country Didn't you specifically send him abroad How dare he come back." Fu Xiaoyao was very puzzled.

Lu Hanchuan told everyone why Qi Dongming was preparing to return to his home country.

After listening, Fu Xiaoyao was silent for a few seconds, “I see, but why do you say his return is good news”

"If he doesn't return to the country, how can we put him in jail" Lu Hanchuan looked up at her. "His crimes aren't serious enough for international extradition yet, so the only way to get him into prison is to have him return to China."

After listening to Lu Hanchuan's explanation, Fu Xiaoyao finally understood why he said this was good news.

This is indeed good news, Fu Xiaoyao couldn't wait any longer, "When will he be back"

"Probably this month," Lu Hanchuan gave an answer that wasn't very definite.

But Fu Xiaoyao was already very content.

One month is shorter than several months, no matter what.

Of course, she hoped that Qi Dongming would go to jail as soon as possible.

"Hanchuan, thank you." Fu Xiaoyao said.

Lu Hanchuan let out a low chuckle. "You finally called my name again. After you came back from the countryside, you never called it. You only called it when I forced you to in the countryside."

She still hadn't fully opened her heart to him.

Only now, hearing that Qi Dongming was coming back, did her heart open to him a little bit.

Fu Xiaoyao's eyes flashed, just about to speak when her stomach suddenly growled.

She blushed slightly, a little embarrassed. "Well..."

"Hungry" Lu Hanchuan pressed his forehead against hers.

Fu Xiaoyao in the east, could only hum softly.

"I'm hungry too, it's been so long. What do you want to eat" Lu Hanchuan asked her.

After thinking for a moment, Fu Xiaoyao finally replied, "I'm fine with anything."

He is so much better at cooking than she is, everything he makes is delicious, she really has no complaints.

"Okay, I'll go check the kitchen." Lu Hanchuan said, getting up from her, then walked out of the room to the kitchen.

Fu Xiaoyao looked at the door of the room and couldn't help but smile slightly.

Who could have imagined that the once aloof and haughty man, who would find it bothersome to even glance her way, would now personally cook for her because she was hungry

If this had happened before, she wouldn't have believed it.

Therefore, Lu Hanchuan's changes were truly immense. She even doubted if the current Lu Hanchuan was the real him. Was the cold and distant him from before just an act

But whether it was real or not, she couldn't be sure, and she wasn't even bothered to guess. She stretched lazily then fished her phone from the bedside table and glanced at it.

"8:30 It's so late" Fu Xiaoyao muttered, then got out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

When she came out after washing up, Lu Hanchuan had also finished preparing dinner. He was just carrying two large bowls out of the kitchen. The aroma wafted even several meters away.

"What are you doing" Fu Xiaoyao asked, wrinkling her nose.

Lu Hanchuan put the bowl on the table, "Noodles, want some"

"Eat." Fu Xiaoyao nodded without hesitation.

It smells so good, just smelling it makes me hungry, she'd be a fool not to eat it.

"Come over here if you want to eat." Lu Hanchuan beckoned her over.

Fu Xiaoyao hurriedly put down the towel in her hand and ran to the table, staring straight into the bowl.

He made two bowls of tomato egg noodles. The noodles were white, the tomatoes red, the eggs yellow, and there were a few green chopped scallions on top. The combination of colors gave people a pretty visual feast.

"What are you just standing there for, watching but not eating" Lu Hanchuan took the other end of his chopsticks and lightly tapped Fu Xiaoyao's head.

Fu Xiaoyao glared at him, pulled up a chair and sat down, "Who said I don't eat I just think these two bowls of noodles look good."

It's really exceptionally beautiful, anyway she can't do it.

"If you think it's good, just finish it all." Lu Hanchuan said as he handed her his chopsticks.

Fu Xiaoyao hummed, "Don't worry, I can finish it."

Saying that, the chopsticks launched an attack on the noodles in the bowl.

His craftsmanship truly didn't disappoint her. The moment it touched her tongue, it conquered her taste buds. Even though it was so hot, making her fan her mouth frantically, she couldn't bear to spit it out.

Lu Hanchuan saw her like this, and sighed in his heart.

Though I haven't studied with the etiquette teacher for many days, I at least learned something. How can I still be like this now

Never mind, this is pretty good too. There are too many people in this circle who are bound by rules and regulations. She's different this way.

"There's one more thing I want to tell you." Lu Hanchuan suddenly put down his chopsticks and spoke.

Fu Xiaoyao ate while looking at him, slurringly asking, "What's wrong"

"I fired Fu Zixuan." Lu Hanchuan said, his gaze fixed on her expression, wanting to see if she had any objections.

However, Fu Xiaoyao only froze for a second before continuing to eat calmly. “It’s fine if he gets fired. That person isn't really suited for working in a company anyway.”

To her answer, Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow in some surprise, "I thought you would..."

"Thought I wouldn't be happy about this, huh" Fu Xiaoyao smiled at him.

Lu Hanchuan simply raised his chin in response.

Fu Xiaoyao took a sip of soup and replied, "That's not necessarily true. I know what Fu Zixuan is like. He'll be expelled sooner or later anyway, and you wouldn't expel him unless he did something."

"You trust me that much" Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow.

Fu Xiaoyao nodded. "I understand you. You wouldn't fire someone without a reason."

Lu Hanchuan moodily raised the corner of his lips, "That's right, without a valid reason, I wouldn't take the initiative to fire anyone. The reason why I fired Fu Zixuan is because he was..."

He just repeated what Jiaomuhui had reported.

Fu Xiaoyao sighed after hearing this, "Then he really deserves it. I wouldn't have agreed to introduce him a job in the first place, but you still did..."

"He is your brother." Lu Hanchuan lightly opened his thin lips.

At first, he gave Fu Zixuan a job just because of her.

Fu Xiaoyao naturally understood the meaning of his words and smiled bitterly, "Yes, he is my brother, but from now on, I won't treat him as a brother anymore."

During the day, Fu Zixuan's slap truly chilled her heart to the bone.

"Won't you treat him as a younger brother" Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow. "What does that mean"

"That means from now on, I'll just treat him as a stranger." Fu Xiaoyao explained.

Lu Hanchuan propped his head up, "Can you do it"

Fu Xiaoyao's eyelids drooped. "I don't know, but I'll try my best."

“I hope so.” Lu Hanchuan wasn’t quite convinced, but he didn’t say it outright, lest he discourage her. So he changed the subject, “About what happened during the day, do you still feel that you were wrong”r and hiding behind Lu Hanchuan again.Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and directly grabbed Qi Ya's wrist, stopping her from hitting someone."Enough! Look at yourself now!" Lu Hanchuan flung Qi Ya away a...
