Chapter 641: Deciding to Leave
e from Fu Xiaoyao's grasp. Instead, she became exhausted and cried out in despair.Hearing the cries, Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyelids and knew she couldn't overdo it. She grabbed Qi Ya's collar and pull..."Brother, no, I don't plan on staying in City C. I just want to stay here for a while longer. Xiao Bao went back to the Lu family, and there's no way I could take him with me. If I go back home now, it will be really difficult to see Xiao Bao again later, so..."
"Okay, stop explaining," Shi Mo interrupted her. "You just don't want to leave, you want to stay in City C, right I know you too well."
"..." Her thoughts were exposed, and Fu Xiaoyao fell silent.
Then Mo suddenly smiled, "Since you want to stay, then stay."
"Huh" Fu Xiaoyao was stunned.
Shi Mo's voice softened, "Actually, since the day you returned to China, I knew you might stay here. Because of Lu Hanchuan, and because of Xiao Bao, you have never let go of Lu Hanchuan. It's just that your current personality prevents you from honestly admitting it, but your words and actions all express that you care deeply for Lu Hanchuan."
"I don't." Fu Xiaoyao instinctively retorted.
Shi Mo couldn't help but chuckle, "See, this is exactly what I mean. You refuse to admit that you still love Lu Hanchuan, but everyone can see it. You love him, otherwise you wouldn't have left Xiaobao with him."
"Xiao Bao was originally his child. I kept Xiao Bao in the Lu family to inherit the Lu family's property." Fu Xiaoyao said.
Shi Mo rubbed his temples, "Still arguing Even if you let Xiao Bao inherit Lu Family's assets, couldn't you just have Lu Hanchuan make a will Why insist on staying in the Lu family Making a will wouldn't affect Xiao Bao's inheritance rights. When Lu Hanchuan dies later, Xiao Bao comes back with the will, he can still inherit smoothly."
Hearing this, Fu Xiaoyao's lips moved but she couldn't find the words to respond.
"So, the reason you left Xiao Bao is already very clear. Because Xiao Bao is with Lu Hanchuan, you can use seeing Xiao Bao as an excuse to meet Lu Hanchuan himself, isn't that right" Shi Mo said.
Fu Xiaoyao didn't know what to say at this point.
The deepest thoughts she kept hidden in her heart were all dug out by him.
What else could she say
"Xiao Yao, like this, one day you will let go and get back together with Lu Hanchuan." Shi Mo said again.
Fu Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat, she lowered her eyelids, hiding the emotions in his eyes from view.
Shi Mo saw that she remained silent, and probably guessed her current appearance. He sighed, "So you plan to continue being with Lu Hanchuan in the future If so, you can stay. If not, you should leave him as soon as possible, or else it will be even harder to get away later. Your parents think the same way, this phone call is also their intention."
"I understand, brother. I'll think about it carefully." Fu Xiaoyao managed to squeeze a smile at the corner of her mouth.
Shi Mo let out a hum, "Consider the outcome this morning. The sooner, the better for you. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to let go."
"Good." Fu Xiaoyao nodded.
The phone call was disconnected.
Fu Xiaoyao dropped her phone and closed her eyes wearily.
This phone call from Shi Mo brought up the issue of staying or leaving, something she had been deliberately trying to avoid thinking about all along.
But now she couldn't help but think about it.
That day, Fu Xiaoyao spent it in a daze.
In the evening, after dinner, she played with Xiao Bao for a while and then went back to her room.
Song Yi watched her leave, then gave Lu Hanchuan a sidelong glance. “Mr., what’s wrong with your wife Did you bully her”
Lu Hanchuan pursed his lips, "No."
He didn't know what Fu Xiaoyao was referring to. She had been like this since he received her call.
"If he hasn't bullied his wife, then why is she acting like this" Auntie Song was very puzzled.
Lu Hanchuan remained silent, his eyes flickering a few times before he stood up and followed.
Fu Xiaoyao was changing clothes and preparing to rest.
At that moment, the door to the room suddenly creaked open.
Fu Xiaoyao patted her cheek and opened the door. Seeing the man outside, she wasn't at all surprised. "What are you doing here"
"Is something wrong" Lu Hanchuan asked her.
Fu Xiaoyao frowned, "How do you ask that"
"You answer me," he looked at her.
Fu Xiaoyao shook her head. "No, nothing happened."
"Really If nothing happened, why were you so preoccupied when you came back" Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes.
Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip, then pushed him away with some annoyance, shoving him outside the door. "It's none of your business."
After she finished speaking, she slammed the door shut and went back to her room.
At this moment, she had to admit that her heart was in turmoil, and she had to admit that what Shi Mo said was right.
She has loved Lu Hanchuan all along, and she never changed. The reason she brought Xiao Bao back is not only to let Xiao Bao recognize his ancestors, but also to use Xiao Bao as an excuse to see Lu Hanchuan anytime.
But precisely because of this, she couldn't accept it, couldn't accept herself who had suffered such wounds. Why couldn't she forget Lu Hanchuan Why did she still love him
So she kept evading, constantly denying the fact that she loved him. To make it seem more genuine, she even used coldness as a disguise.
But disguise is ultimately just a disguise. Anyone with discernment can see through it and perceive her true emotions, just like Shi Mo.
Now her feelings for Lu Hanchuan are very complex. She loves him, but she's also afraid to be with him.
During the times she was with him, she had endured too much hardship and pain. She was hurt inside and out, so she was afraid, truly afraid, that if they got back together, she would continue to be hurt endlessly.
This is the real reason why she always says she won't get back with him. At her core, she's afraid; she lacks the courage to face what might happen in the future.
Maybe Mo Shi is right. If you're truly afraid to face the future, then it's best to leave now, to get away from here, to get away from Lu Hanchuan.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to get out of this situation later!
As for Xiao Bao, if she wants to see Xiao Bao, she can have someone pick him up at any time.
After figuring all of this out, Fu Xiaoyao let out a long sigh and collapsed onto the bed.
That night, she couldn't sleep.
The next day, she arrived at the restaurant pulling her suitcase and sporting two black eyes, which startled Madame Song. "Madam," she exclaimed, "what happened to you last night"
"Can't sleep." Fu Xiaoyao smiled bitterly.
These dark circles are terrible, she can't even cover them with foundation.
"Is there something on your mind, madam" Aunt Song asked again.
Fu Xiaoyao shook her head. "No."
Aunt Song clearly didn't believe her, but she didn't press further. Instead, she looked at the suitcase she brought with surprise, "Madam, this is..."
"Well, Qi Ya has already been caught, and I should be going too. I've stayed here for quite a long time, and it feels a bit awkward." Fu Xiaoyao smiled in reply.
Lu Hanchuan's cold voice came from the doorway, "Are you leaving"
Fu Xiaoyao stiffened for a moment, then raised her eyes to meet his gaze. Under his icy stare, she nodded, "Well, I've stayed here for so long, it's time to leave."
"This is your home, where do you want to go" Lu Hanchuan asked her with a gloomy face.
Fu Xiaoyao lowered her eyes, "Mr. Lu, you're wrong. This isn't my home. My home is abroad, not here. That's why I have to go back to my own home."
"Are you going abroad" Lu Hanchuan strode three steps in two, reaching her face with an unusually raised voice.
Fu Xiaoyao nodded. "Yes, but not now. After Qi Ya dies, you'll know that Qi Ya still wants me dead right now, so she set up a backup plan. I went abroad for safety reasons, and on the other hand, I should go back."s were bright, with none of the lingering blurriness or confusion from being drunk.This is enough to show that she was never drunk from the beginning to the end, but was pretending to be."I never woul...
