Chapter 397 Nothing Happened

ence and neglect towards her over the past three years didn't seem to matter at all in this moment.Thinking about this, Fu Xiaoyao choked back a sob and spoke in a trembling voice, "There's no grievan...Lu Hanchuan picked up his coat and walked toward the door, saying as he went, "For a while, I won't be showing my face at the company."

"Why" Fu Xiaoyao asked in surprise.

陸寒川 opened the door, “I made an agreement with Tang Yi. I won’t appear at the company and will also have Qiao Mu deliberately spread false news that the company’s secrets have been stolen.”

"You want to make Tangshan misunderstand that the Lu family is in trouble, and then force Tangshan to take action against them" Fu Xiaoyao immediately guessed his meaning.

Lu Hanchuan raised his chin. "Not bad, only this way will Tang Shan reveal his tracks, and I can follow the clues to gradually eliminate his power."

"But wouldn't it be easier to just have Tang Yi reveal the location of Tangshan's hideout Then you could directly capture him, right" Fu Xiaoyao didn't understand why he was going through all this trouble.

Lu Hanzhan pressed the elevator button. “It's not as simple as you think. You think this is a TV show Catching the king first can solve everything What I have to do isn't just taking down Tang Shan, I also need to settle accounts with the entire Tang family. The Tang family has a lot of influence and it's complicated. Even if we take down Tang Shan, there will be other people in the family who take over his power.”

"Then I understand what you mean. You're saying that if Tangshan was gone, the rest of the Tang family accepting his power might also lead to another conflict with the Lu family, right" Fu Xiaoyao blinked her eyes for confirmation.

Lu Hanchuan lightly hummed, "The Tang family and the Lu family have long been at odds, with only one able to survive. Therefore, to completely resolve the feud between the Tang and Lu families, the only way is to make the Tang family disappear from history."

Speaking of which, a cold light flashed quickly in his dark eyes.

Fu Xiaoyao sighed, "It seems I thought too simply. I just thought that if we captured Tangshan, we could take down the Tang family. But has Tang Yi told you about Tangshan's whereabouts"

"In the villa district in the north of the city."

"What about Qi Dongming Is he there too" Fu Xiaoyao clenched her hands tightly and asked anxiously.

This is all she wants to know for now.

Li Hánchuan knew why she was so eager, but he sadly shook his head. "He's abroad, as for Qi Ya... I don't know yet. Also, there's something else I need to tell you."

"Hmm" Fu Xiaoyao looked at him, "What's the matter"

Lu Hanchuan saw the elevator arrive and grabbed her wrist, pulling her out of the elevator. Then he pressed her against the wall next to the elevator.

"You... what are you doing" Fu Xiaoyao flushed, looking around to see if anyone had passed by.

Otherwise, it would be mortifying.

"Haven't you been concerned about what happened between me and Qi Ya" Lu Hanchuan lowered his head, gazing at her.

Fu Xiaoyao's expression froze, and the blush on her face gradually faded. "What do you want to say"

“I want to tell you, that day nothing happened between me and Qi Ya. We just lay on a bed and posed intimately. As for the marks on my body...” Lu Hanchuan’s face darkened instantly. He gritted his teeth angrily and spat out, “They were twisted out by Tang Yi!”

"What" Fu Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then uncertainly asked, "You said that nothing happened between you and Qi Ya The marks on your body were twisted by Tang Yi"

"It was that boy. He was there at the time too." Lu Hanchuan clenched his fist, propping himself up against the wall.

Fu Xiaoyao frowned, looking at her disbelief, "How do you know he's here"

He told me, and even showed me the evidence," Lu Hanchuan replied.

Fu Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow. "Evidence What evidence"

"He twisted my evidence, he filmed it when he was twisting it." Lu Hanchuan's face darkened even further.

Fu Xiaoyao was stunned for a few seconds, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Hahaha...... Twisting..."

"Why are you laughing" Lu Hanchuan frowned unpleasantly.

Fu Xiaoyao was laughing so hard tears streamed down her face. It took her a while to calm down, and she took a deep breath before replying: "It's nothing, really. Tang Yi probably did this just to threaten or ridicule you later on, but before he could, you became his brother. You should be grateful he didn't do it, otherwise you would have been embarrassed."

Lu Hanchuan's brow furrowed, a few dark lines appearing at the corners of his eyes. He let out a heavy snort of disdain.

Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her aching stomach, "He told you all this, which means he's acknowledged you as his brother."

At that, Lu Hanchuan's previously grim face brightened considerably. "That's him being sensible."

"Come on, you should be thanking him for keeping your reputation intact. Otherwise, Qi Ya might have actually gone through with it." Fu Xiaoyao felt fortunate as she said this.

I'm glad Tang Yi was there at that time, and I'm glad that nothing happened between Qi Ya and Lu Hanchuan.

Thinking of this, Fu Xiaoyao lightly patted her chest. The knot in her heart finally dissipated completely at this moment.

Li Hanchuan could see the change in her expression, his thin lips curled slightly, "Are you feeling better now"

Fu Xiaoyao pouted her lips arrogantly, refusing to answer.

Lu Hanchuan reached out and gently pinched her rising lips, "Let's go."

"Wait a moment." Fu Xiaoyao patted his hand down.

Lu Hanchuan took a step back, "What's wrong"

"What you just said, how could Tang Yi be there at that time" Fu Xiaoyao was very concerned about this.

Lu Hanchuan lowered his eyes and replied, "He told me it was Qi Ya who approached him. The Qi family is currently collaborating with the Tang family to oppose the Lu family. Qi Ya wanted us to misunderstand each other, so she came up with that scheme. But she couldn't do it alone, so she asked Tang Yi for help."

"And then"

Then she knew I would hold her accountable later, so she hoped Tang Yi would help her leave City C smoothly before I did. Lu Hanchuan adjusted his cuffs and said lightly.

Fu Xiaoyao smiled, "But Tang Yi didn't help her leave."

"Correct." Lu Hanchuan raised his chin. "He did the right thing."

"Indeed, otherwise you wouldn't have caught Qi Ya so easily. It's a pity that she still ran away." Fu Xiaoyao lamented regretfully.

Lu Hanchuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, "Don't worry, she can't escape."

"I believe you, but can you promise me one thing" An idea seemed to strike Fu Xiaoyao, her small face tightening up.

Lu Hanchuan slightly raised his chin, gesturing for her to speak.

She took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "When Qi Dongming gets caught, I want to ask him personally why he treated my mother that way!"

"Okay." Lu Hanchuan nodded in agreement.

Fu Xiaoyao smiled gratefully at him, "Thank you."

"It's nothing to thank me for, but since I agreed to do something for you, shouldn't you agree to do something for me" Lu Hanchuan encircled his arms and looked at her.

Fu Xiaoyao tilted her head in confusion, "What do you want me to promise"

"When are you going to move back Since I haven't done anything wrong to you, why are you still staying out there" Lu Hanchuan asked her what she meant.

Fu Xiaoyao touched her nose, "Tomorrow, I'll go back tomorrow."

She stayed in Tang Yi's apartment with the purpose of eavesdropping on him, hoping to hear some clues.

But now it's not needed, Tang Yi is already one of them.

She naturally had no reason to listen any further. Besides, the misunderstanding between Lu Hanchuan and Qi Ya was just that – a misunderstanding. She had even less reason to stay outside now.

"Okay, I'll have Aunt Song come over tomorrow to help you pack your things." Lu Hanchuan walked towards the outside of the apartment building.

"You call the shots." Fu Xiaoyao followed closely behind.

The two left the apartment and first went to a nearby flower shop to buy a bouquet of flowers, then drove to the cemetery.

By the time Ye Lan returned, it was already lunchtime.

Lu Hanchuan sent Fu Xiaoyao to the apartment building and then drove away, as if he had a meeting or something. She wasn't quite sure what it was, and she didn't ask either.

Back at the apartment, Fu Xiaoyao threw her bag onto the sofa and lay down herself. After resting for a while, she planned to go take a shower and nap for a bit.

As soon as she got up, a wave of nausea surged from her stomach, making her feel like vomiting.

"Ugh..." Her face turned pale, she groaned, hurriedly covering her mouth and ran towards the bathroom.ess, all she wanted was to get away from him, how could she possibly answer his callLu Hchuan didn't expect Fu Xiaoyao to answer so directly. He was taken aback, "Don't want to take it Fu Xiaoyao, hav...
