Chapter 8: A Solitary Figure

turned extremely ugly.Yes, a month ago when he went to the Qi family to pick someone up, Qi Dongming did say that he would compensate Fu Xiaoyao.But over this past month, Qi Dongming has taken no conc...In the hospital.

The doctor gave Fu Xiaoyao a physical examination, his expression slightly solemn. "Ms. Fu, you've had stomach problems for some time now, but fortunately, it's not too serious. Just pay attention to your diet in your daily life."

"The reason I got indigestion tonight is probably because you haven't been eating at regular intervals. By the way, Ms. Fu, what did you eat today"

"What did you eat" Fu Xiaoyao awkwardly looked at Lu Hanchuan. During her lunch break, he had startled her out of the blue, and then she had to work overtime until evening. Where could she have time to eat

"Doctor, is there a way to cure this stomach disease"

Lu Hanchuan frowned, he didn't know why, seeing this woman's pale face, he felt a little guilty.

"It's a bit difficult," the doctor shook his head, "Miss Fu's stomach ailment isn't really serious, just pay attention to a healthy diet, eat in regular portions, and give your stomach some time to recover."

The doctor gave Fu Xiaoyao a few instructions and asked her to rest there for now. He went to ask the nurse to get her medicine.

The moment the door to the ward closed, the atmosphere became stiff and awkward.

She nervously clenched her hands and, turning her head, saw that the sky outside had darkened. She couldn't help but say, "The doctor said I still need to have an IV drip later, it'll be very late before I can go back. Why don't you go first"

"It's okay, I'll be right here waiting."

Lu Hanchuan's face held no superfluous expressions. He pulled out a chair beside him and sat down, taking out his phone as if about to begin handling official business.

Although he didn't say a few comforting words from beginning to end, just looking at his profile, Fu Xiaoyao's lips couldn't help but curl upwards.

She tugged at her sleeve, hesitating for a while, before finally mustering the courage to whisper, “Actually, when I was sick before, I always hoped someone would come to the hospital with me.”

That way... she wouldn't be alone.

Lu Hanchuan looked up, the room's lighting made Fu Xiaoyao's face even paler, and as she lowered her head, her slender neck was exposed, making her look very thin.

For some reason, his heart suddenly felt like it was being hit by something, a mixture of sour and bitter.

This strange feeling made him furrow his brows, but he couldn't tell why.

His expression fell in Fu Xiaoyao's eyes, thinking he was unhappy, she quickly explained, "Don't be angry! I didn't mean to say anything about you, just—"

But, she couldn't control the emotions in her heart for a moment...

On the day they got their marriage license, Lu Hanchuan made it very clear that he had no feelings for her and there would be no future between them.

"You sleep first."

Seeing her little movement, Lu Hanchuan deepened the furrow of his brow and said coldly.

"Okay, okay..."

Fu Xiaoyao didn't dare to say any more, obediently closed her eyes and prepared to rest, afraid that the more she said, the more wrong she would be.

After working overtime at the company, she fell asleep quickly on the hospital bed.

Lu Hanchuan put down his work and looked up at Fu Xiaoyao's sleeping face, a few strands of thought flashing in his eyes.

Fu Xiaoyao's appearance was very pleasing to his eyes.

A face that’s just the size of a palm, with a delicate nose bridge and fair skin. While not a stunning beauty, she is undeniably pretty and charming.

Especially when I look at him, there's always a light in his eyes...

Om!

My phone suddenly rang.

Lu Hanchuan walked out of the ward with his phone, "Is there something"

"Sir, the doctor said Miss Qi's condition is not good and she needs surgery soon. Please make a decision as quickly as possible."

The assistant's voice came from the speaker urgently, Lu Hanchuan's eyes grew even heavier, "Tell the doctor, I'll give him a reply tomorrow."

"Okay, I understand, sir."

After hanging up the phone, he stood at the door, watching the people inside. His expression was complex.

For this woman, he had almost forgotten about her, but this time he was back for something else.

Ironically, when he looked into Fu Xiaoyao's clear eyes, he couldn't bring himself to say a word.

But this matter must be resolved!ng process, she kept her head tilted to one side throughout, not daring to look at him. 。But Lu Hanchuan's gaze was always fixed on her face, "Like this, can you see Don't button it wrong" "No worries...
