Chapter 192: Lu Hanchuan's Call

“How is she” The doctor replied, “The pregnant woman is temporarily out of danger…” 。"The doctor answered" 。Tang Yi let out a breath, "What about the child" "The child is fine, but if this happens...Fu Xiaoyao was suddenly startled awake by the sound. She hurriedly opened her eyes and brought her phone forward, staring at the string of numbers on the screen with a look of disbelief. They were so familiar to her, ingrained in her very bones.

This is... Lu Hanchuan

How could he know her new number

Could it be Auntie Song

Fu Xiaoyao's hand trembled slightly as she put the phone back to her ear, "You..."

"Where are you" Lu Hanchuan asked her again, his voice low and hoarse, with a faint weariness.

Fu Xiaoyao swallowed nervously and countered, "How did you get my phone number"

"I asked Aunt Song for it." Lu Hanchuan replied coldly.

Given her close relationship with Auntie Song, it's natural for him to suspect Auntie Song. Even if Auntie Song is innocent, her friends might have something to do with it, and he will find out anyway.

As expected, he only tested Song Yi in the morning. Unexpectedly, Song Yi readily admitted everything, saving him the effort of investigating. However, Song Yi really didn't know her whereabouts. Qiao Mu searched for her all day yesterday but found no trace of her.

He really wanted to know how she got out of the city!

Fu Xiaoyao's eyebrows lifted in sudden realization, "So it was Aunt Song."

It seems he finally suspected Aunt Song.

"Why are you leaving" Lu Hanchuan asked her.

Fu Xiaoyao fell silent.

Lu Hanchuan wasn't in a hurry, he just waited for her reply.

Fu Xiaoyao bit her lower lip, "Since we're getting divorced, of course I have to leave."

"Didn't I tell you I wouldn't divorce" Lu Hanchuan said with a stern face.

Fu Xiaoyao tightened her grip on her phone, "Yes, but this time Grandpa agrees."

"But the person getting married to you is me. As long as I don't sign, this marriage can't be broken even if grandpa interferes, Fu Xiaoyao, do you understand" Lu Hanchuan said coldly.

Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyes, "I understand, but Mr. Lu, what's the point of this"

"What did you say" Lu Hanchuan frowned.

"I'm feeling rather powerless leaning against the headboard," Fu Xiaoyao said weakly. "My point is, this kind of marriage we have, continuing it makes absolutely no sense, Mr. Lu. Do you even know what a real marriage truly is"

She asked him.

Lu Hanchuan's thin lips moved slightly, just about to answer, but he found that his brain couldn't organize the language at all.

Because he realized he couldn't answer the question at all.

Fu Xiaoyao waited for a while, but he didn't say anything. She seemed to understand something in her heart, and the corners of her mouth curled into a self-deprecating arc. "You really don't know, do you"

Lu Hanchuan pursed his lips, "Then what do you understand marriage to be"

"Me" Fu Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, a glimmer of longing in her eyes. "I understand marriage as a relationship where both husband and wife love and care for each other, tolerate each other's flaws, and respect each other. The wife takes meticulous care of the husband, while the husband protects his wife and children with everything he has. Has this kind of marriage been given to me"

Lu Hanzhan was taken aback, "I..."

"You don't," Fu Xiaoyao interrupted him, "All you gave me was endless coldness, boundless waiting, and repeated disappointments. This kind of marriage is too tormenting, it's agonizing."

Lu Hanchuan didn't expect that the marriage he brought her would be so suffocating. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart, "I'm sorry, but I never meant to make you feel this way."

“I know, because you do these things subconsciously, so you don’t need to apologize to me. The one who should apologize is me. I shouldn’t have fallen for you. Loving you while also naively hoping that you would love me too, that was my mistake.” Fu Xiaoyao’s face was full of bitterness, “It was wrong of me to covet something that wasn’t mine from the beginning.”

For some reason, when he heard her self-blame, Lu Hanchuan felt a sharp pang in his heart.

Fu Xiaoyao sniffed, "Mr. Lu, do you know when we first met"

She suddenly asked.

"How could you ask such a question" Lu Hanchuan countered.

Fu Xiaoyao spoke impassively, "Answer me first."

Lu Hanchuan pursed his lips. "It was Grandpa who told me that my marriage partner has been decided, and he asked me to come back and meet."

He still remembered her from when he saw her at the old house. She was thin and wore very plain clothes, looking rather disheveled. All the women he'd known since childhood were glamorous, so someone like her naturally wasn't his type. He couldn't accept another woman appearing in his world just after Xiaoya left.

And this woman, she is so wretched.

So he found it hard to believe at the time that she was actually the bride his grandfather had chosen for him. That first meeting left him with a terrible impression of her, so how could he possibly accept her as his future wife

"No." Fu Xiaoyao shook her head. "Our first meeting wasn't then, but at the foot of Tangshi Group headquarters. I had just graduated and was preparing to find a job, and went to the headquarters with my classmates for an interview. It was by chance that I saw you, and from that moment on, I fell in love with you."

She had never seen such a handsome man. At first glance, she was deeply attracted to him. From then on, she loved him uncontrollably. Of course, at that time, she knew very well that they were from two different worlds. She loved him, but she was destined not to have him. Therefore, she never had any unrealistic thoughts.

She never expected that fate would give her a chance. She saw the old man's marriage proposal, and on impulse, she gathered all her courage to apply. To her surprise, she was chosen! She knew then that she could marry him. At that moment, she was so excited that she cried for two days straight.

However, the married life she had dreamed of turned out to be a painful beginning.

Lu Hanchuan heard Fu Xiaoyao's clear confession again, and his heart inexplicably felt joyful, but his facial expression was still as cold and composed. "Since that's the case, why do you want a divorce"

"As I just said, I don't want a marriage like this that causes pain anymore. It has nothing to do with whether or not I love you. Besides, do you even love me" Fu Xiaoyao tugged at her blouse and asked sarcastically.

Lu Hanchuan's thin lips moved slightly, but he didn't answer.

Fu Xiaoyao didn't seem surprised, she just smiled wryly. "You see, you didn't answer, which means you don't love me. So what will happen to our marriage if we continue like this Who knows Before I knew about Qi Ya, I could wait, wait for the day you fall in love with me. But..."

At this point, she choked back a sob and continued, "But now I know, no matter how long I wait, that day will never come because you'll never love me. So what am I doing sitting in the position of your wife Mr. Lu, please don't look for me anymore. Sign the divorce agreement and go find the person you truly want to marry."

Having finished speaking, she no longer gave him a chance to reply and quickly hung up the phone.

Lu Hanchuan looked at the phone screen that had jumped back to the main menu, his thin lips pressed tightly together, feeling quite displeased.

Who does he want to marry the most

When did he ever say he wanted to marry someone else

"Mr. Lu," Aunt Song walked over, wiping her hands with her apron, and stopped behind Lu Hanchuan.

Lu Hanchuan put down his phone and looked at her slightly, "What's up"

Have you contacted your wife

Lu Hanchuan hummed, "Got in touch."

Aunt Song let out a breath and immediately followed up, "So have you found out where Madam is now"。The jailer nodded and left. 。Fu Xiaoyao took one last look in the direction where Yulin was being taken away, then left without looking back. 。After leaving prison, she didn't return to the villa but...
