and raised a smile, "Good evening, Aunt Song" 。" Good evening, Madam. 。"Aunt Song also replied, but then she noticed something was wrong with her expression and immediately became tense. "Madam, wh..."Madam should have rested already, sir. Is there anything you need from her, or shall I go call her down" Song Yi put down the remote control.
Lu Hanchuan raised his hand to stop him, "No need, I'll go myself."
Having finished speaking, he went upstairs.
The room was pitch black, silent as a tomb.
Lu Hanchuan turned on the light, and the bright light illuminated everything in the room.
He looked towards the bed, the sheets were puffed up high, clearly someone was lying inside.
"Asleep already!" Lu Hanchuan murmured softly, taking light steps forward and looking down at the woman on the bed.
She had fallen asleep, her sleeping posture very well-behaved. Only the slightly furrowed brow told others that she slept restlessly.
Did you have a nightmare
Lu Hanchuan reached out and touched her forehead, dispelling the thought of waking her up.
Never mind, I'll talk to her tomorrow.
After so many days dragging on, it doesn't matter if it's one day later.
Lu Hanchuan took off his suit jacket and loosened his tie, walking toward the bathroom.
The next day, when Fu Xiaoyao was about to wake up groggily, she suddenly felt something being draped over her waist, making it impossible for her to turn over.
She reached out, a little displeased, and touched what turned out to be an arm!
Fu Xiaoyao instantly sobered up and instinctively turned her head. To her surprise, there was a man lying beside her.
It's Lu Hanchuan!
"How are you here" Fu Xiaoyao's eyes widened, her shock indescribable.
What time did he come back last night
What time did you go to bed again
She didn't feel a thing!
Lu Hanchuan opened his eyes unhappily, his voice hoarse from just waking up, "I'm your husband, what are you talking about Why am I here"
This woman, she's lost her sense of being married again!
Fu Xiaoyao's expression was startled for a moment, then she sheepishly scratched her head, "Sorry, I'm still a little uncomfortable with you moving back in..."
"I can tell you're used to being free." Lu Hanchuan's face was cold as he tossed aside the blanket and got up.
Fu Xiaoyao pouted her lips in grievance.
She is not used to freedom.
She's really just not fully accepting the fact that he's moved back in yet.
And in all these days, he has only come back to live for two nights.
Fu Xiaoyao sighed and patted her cheeks to wake up.
After breakfast, Lu Hanchuan as usual sent her to the intersection where she got off for the previous two times.
She ran all the way to the company. As soon as she entered the door, she saw many people pointing at her, some even whispering to each other.
"It's her..."
"So it was her after all."
“That's right, that's hilarious.”
What's up
Fu Xiaoyao turned her neck and looked around, not understanding what was happening.
And those whispering to each other also spoke in hushed tones, she couldn't hear clearly. Instinctively, she knew it wasn't anything good. She didn't bother asking, quickened her pace and stepped into the elevator.
As she reached the top floor, Fu Xiaoyao passed by the three other secretary offices and saw that their doors were closed tight. This showed clearly that they had indeed resigned and left.
But at this moment, she suddenly realized a very serious problem: if they left, what would happen to their work
Will she have to finish it all by herself from now on
Thinking about this, Fu Xiaoyao felt dizzy and unwell.
"Fu, secretary." Qiao's assistant's voice rang out from behind.
Fu Xiaoyao turned around and greeted with a lackluster, "Good morning, Qiao Assistant."
"Good morning, Fu Secretary. What are you doing standing here"
"Nothing, just thinking about whether I'll have more work in the future," she replied with a frown.
Joe the assistant understood her meaning and couldn't help but smile, "Secretary Fu, don't worry. Mr. Lu has already had me transfer three secretaries from the Lu Corporation headquarters. They should arrive tomorrow, so you won't have to do everything yourself."
"Really" Fu Xiaoyao's eyes lit up.
"Of course it's true." Joe's assistant nodded.
Fu Xiaoyao let out a big sigh of relief, her spirits instantly lifted. “That’s great.”
"Fu Secretary, don't get too excited just yet." Qiao Assistant's smile grew wider, giving people an ominous feeling.
Fu Xiaoyao swallowed nervously, "W-what do you mean"
"That means the new secretary team hasn't arrived yet, so the other three secretaries' usual work will be temporarily handled by Secretary Fu alone. This is Mr. Lu's meaning, Secretary Fu, you can do it!" Qiao Assistant said and left.
On the long corridor, only Fu Xiaoyao stood alone, tears welling up in her eyes. She felt lost and hopeless, with a future shrouded in darkness.
She knew it wasn't that simple...
Fu Xiaoyao slumped her shoulders and resignedly returned to her office, starting her work for the day. For the entire morning, she didn't stop, working so hard that she didn't even have time to drink water, let alone go to the restroom. She didn't move from her chair at all.
After finally tidying up all the messy documents, she had to rush to send them to Lu Hankan.
"Mr. Lu, today's data is all organized." She stood before Lu Hanchuan's desk, reporting with a tired face.
"Let it go." Lu Hanchuan replied without raising his head.
Fu Xiaoyao placed a stack of files down, “Then Mr. Lu, I’ll leave now.”
She has so much, so much, so much work to process.
"Wait." Lu Hanchuan called out to her.
Fu Xiaoyao retracted her raised foot and looked at him in confusion, "Is there anything else, President Lu"
How are you considering it
"What"
Lu Hanchuan frowned, slowly spitting out two words, "Bone marrow!"
Is she intentionally pretending not to know
Upon hearing the words "bone marrow," Fu Xiaoyao's face paled slightly, "I haven't thought about it..."
"Haven't decided yet"
"Hmm," she replied with a slight nod of her head.
Lu Hanchuan put down his pen, his deep gaze falling on her for a moment, "What are you hesitating about"
"I..." Fu Xiaoyao twisted her clothes, not knowing how to answer.
Lu Hanchuan took a long breath, his tone slightly lighter. "Do you have any concerns"
Fu Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment before nodding.
What are your concerns
"I've looked up the information..."
"Then what"
Fu Xiaoyao bit her lower lip, "Then I saw on the material that there is a 30% chance that bone marrow donors will have after-effects, they will age faster and get leukemia, I'm afraid..."
"Aftereffects" Lu Hanchuan's pupils constricted slightly, his expression becoming serious.
He was unaware that bone marrow donation could have after-effects.
And yet the aftereffects are still so severe.
He always thought it was just his physique deteriorating.
Lu Hanchuan tapped his finger on the cold tabletop, making a tapping sound. "I understand. You go out first, I'll ask Shao Sian specifically. He knows your physical condition very well; he should know if there will be any aftereffects after you donated bone marrow."
"...Good." Fu Xiaoyao forced a smile, and the moment she turned away, her eyes welled up.
He still wanted her to donate bone marrow.
After Fu Xiaoyao left, Lu Hanchuan called Shao Si Nian.
Shao Si Nian yawned, "What's up"
"I ask you, are there any after-effects from bone marrow donation"
"Yeah." Shao Sinians answered nonchalantly.
Lu Hannan's heart sank, his face tightening. "Why didn't you tell me before"
"You didn't ask again." Shao Siniang opened the speakerphone, tossed her phone on the table, took off her glasses and slowly wiped them.
"I didn't ask, so you wouldn't have volunteered to tell me" Lu Hánchuan's voice was cold and sharp, clearly indicating his anger.
Shao Si Nian put on his glasses, "I didn't forget it."
"Now, tell me, what kind of aftereffects do you have"
"There are differences in size, right Smaller ones will make your body deteriorate badly. In severe cases, it can lead to aging and even leukemia." Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
It's actually the same as what Fu Xiaoyao said!
Lu Hanchuan's grip on his phone tightened suddenly, "What about Fu Xiaoyao Will she have any aftereffects" gritted his teeth and said it again.Bang!The coffee table was kicked over with a single kick, Lu Hanchuan took two steps to Qiao Mu's side, his eyes filled with killing intent, "You said Fu Xiaoyao i...
