Chapter 718: Deliberately Pretending to Recognize a Benefact

om above with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.If it were any other time, Qi Dongming would have laughed and dared not look around. But this time, he was fearless, walking past him and continuing to...Fu Xiaoyao smiled. "She insisted on seeing me yesterday, saying she wouldn't leave until she did. She even waited for me outside in the rain, so I reluctantly agreed to meet her. I want to see what she wants."

Lu Hanchuan rubbed his temples, "Suit yourself."

"Go get her over here." Fu Xiaoyao instructed the maid.

"Yes, ma'am." The maid replied and turned to leave.

After about several minutes, the maid returned with a pale-faced Lin Muhxi following behind her.

Lin Mu Xi's walk was a little unsteady, her steps faltering. She seemed to lack energy and vitality. Moreover, she was wearing a set of clothes that looked like they didn't belong to her, and were a bit too big. This only made her already slender frame appear even more fragile.

She watched the few people enjoying their breakfast, and her stomach rumbled.

She immediately covered her stomach and blushed, lowering her head sheepishly. "I'm so sorry, Mr. Chairman, I didn't mean to make a scene."

However, no one responded to her.

Tang Yi curled her lips and continued to eat her food, lowering her head.

Lu Hchuan didn't even give her a glance, pushing the milk to Fu Xiaoyao's face. "Drink more."

Fu Xiaoyao hummed softly and smiled gently.

Lin Mu Xi saw this scene, her heart filled with both anger and grievance.

These three people, they didn't even look at her, let alone offer to have her sit down and eat breakfast with them. They all heard her stomach growling just now!

"Miss Lin," Just when Lin Mu-xi was about to cry out of grievance, Song Yi suddenly called her name.

Lin Mu Xi hurriedly replied, "What's wrong"

Could it be that you're asking her out for breakfast

However, just as this thought arose, Aunt Song's next words left her deeply disappointed, her heart turning cold in an instant.

"Miss Lin, you wanted to see Madam and the second young master, now that you've seen them, what is it you need If there's nothing important, please leave. Madam and the second young master are still having breakfast." Aunt Song said coldly.

Tang Yi gave her a look of approval.

Aunt Song just laughed.

Lin Mu Xi saw it, and felt even more uncomfortable in her heart.

Does he really want her to leave

"Miss Lin, aren't you going to say anything" Seeing that Lin Mu Xi still didn't speak, Aunt Song became a little impatient and urged her.

Lin Mu-xi bit her lower lip, "I say, I actually came to thank the Chairman."

"Thanks" Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow, finally giving her the first look he'd given her since she came in. "What are you thanking me for"

Fu Xiaoyao also looked at Lin Muhi.

This woman, isn't she going to thank them for firing her

Lin Mu Xi twisted her fingers, looking at Lu Hanchuan with some embarrassment. "Thank you, President Lu, for saving me. I got drenched in the rain yesterday and had a fever. Luckily, you saved me, otherwise I..."

"Wait a minute!" Tang Yi made a stopping motion to interrupt her, "You said you had a high fever, was it Lu Hanchuan who saved you"

Lin Mu Xi lightly nodded, "Yeah."

Tang Yi laughed, "Xiao Yao, did you hear that Your credit was taken by your husband."

"Heard." Fu Xiaoyao touched the jam, gave Lin Mu Xi a knowing glance.

Lin Mu-xi met her gaze, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly averted her eyes.

Lin Mu Xi's action made Fu Xiao Yao find it even more ridiculous.

Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Muhi, "Why do you say I saved you"

Lin Mu-xi's lips moved, wanting to say something.

Tang Yi interrupted her, "What else could it be She wants to get close to you. She actually knows that Xiaoyao saved her, but she deliberately doesn't mention it. She insists on saying that you saved her. That way, she can use gratitude as an excuse to cling to you."

Hearing this, Lu Hanzchuan's handsome face instantly darkened to the extreme, and the cold air around him spread.

At the same time that Lin Mu Xi was terrified, she also resented Tang Yi in her heart, feeling that Tang Yi was meddling in her business.

Doesn't she just dislike him Does he need to treat her this way

The only calm person was Fu Xiaoyao.

Fu Xiaoyao drank milk, without saying a word.

Even as Lin Mu Xi opened her mouth to thank Lu Hanchuan, he had already guessed Lin Mu Xi's intentions and purpose.

So there's no need to say anything, it's meaningless.

"Aunt Song, get her out of here with me!" Lu Hanchuan pointed at Lin Mu Xi.

Lin Mu Xi shook her head in a panic, "No, Chairman, why are you firing me"

"Why, you're not even willing to acknowledge your true savior, but for your own purposes, you gave the favor to someone else. I don't want to see her," Lu Hanchuan said coldly.

Tang Yi curled his lips into a smile, but said nothing.

Fu Xiaoyao didn't say a word.

But Aunt Song, on the other hand, was itching to jump up and grab him.

Lin Mu Xi, seeing this, quickly dodged while hurriedly opening her mouth, "Chairman, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have done that."

Saying that, she looked at Fu Xiaoyao again, "Madam Lu, I beg you to forgive me, I won't do it again next time."

"Do you want to do this again next time" Tang Yi exclaimed in surprise before Fu Xiaoyao could even speak.

This woman, next time probably won't want to use being sick as an excuse to enter the Lu family's gate again, will she

Lin Mu-xi's eyes flashed, "No, I mean..."

"I'm awake, I don't care what you mean, Aunt Song, take her out. She's being too noisy." Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her temples and waved them away.

"Aunt Song responded with a sound and grabbed Lin Mu Xi."

Lin Mu Xi wanted to struggle, but her little strength was no match for Aunt Song, who often did chores.

Therefore, amidst her coaxing and calls, Aunt Song effortlessly led her out.

The restaurant was finally quiet again.

Fu Xiaoyao felt her head was much better.

She let out a long sigh and said, "I've never met anyone like this before."

"You're telling me! He's crazy." Tang Yi nodded in agreement.

Lu Hanchuan put a slice of bacon onto Fu Xiaoyao's plate and gave him a cold look. "Do you still want her to be your assistant"

Tang Yi choked back a retort, “I didn't know she was like this at the time, did I”

Lu Hanchuan let out a cold snort.

Tang Yi narrowed his eyes, “Lu Hanchuan, don’t mock me either. Don’t forget, she came for you.”

Lu Hannan's face was very unsightly.

Fu Xiaoyao saw the situation, smiled and played down, "Alright alright, let's not mention her, it's a damper, let's eat. After you eat, you go to work, I'll go out for a bit."

"Where are you going" Lu Hanchuan immediately became nervous when he heard she was going out.

Tang Yi also looked at her.

After all, Fu Xiaoyao is now a key protected person of the Lu family, so nothing can happen to her.

"I'm going to see Yu Lin," Fu Xiaoyao said while drinking her milk.

Lu Hanchuan pursed his lips, "You're not allowed to go."

"Who is Yu Lin" Tang Yi asked.

He felt the name was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

Fu Xiaoyao put down her milk cup and explained, "It's the one who poisoned Grandpa a few years ago."

"So it was her." Tang Yi suddenly realized, remembering.

Back then, he was still unaware of his true identity. He was merely a pawn in Tangshan's game and harbored the desire for revenge against the Lu family. Thus, he persistently kept an eye on them.

Then, he saw that Qi Ya bribed Fu Xiaoyao's best friend to poison Lao Ye Lu. At the time, he thought this was a good thing, as it could weaken the Lu family, so he did not stop it.

Now, looking back, he truly regrets it.

If he had stopped Yu Lin back then and told Fu Xiaoyao what Yu Lin was going to do, maybe his grandfather wouldn't have died.

Thinking of the elderly man whom he had never formally met but still missed, Tang Yi felt a mixture of emotions.

"She wasn't in jail How did she get out" Tang Yi took a deep breath, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, and asked.pared two sets of clothes for you since you will be coming here often."He rummaged through his suitcase.Fu Xiaoyao looked at the man, "Aren't you going back to the villa tonight""Well, I'm not going b...
