Chapter 105: Already Met the Parents

"Did what happened last night have a big impact on Yao Yao?"

After staring at Lu Xiwán for a while, Fu Sijue finally asked that.

Lu Xiwán nodded seriously, "The psychological issue has already affected Yao Yao's body; successive blows will only make the situation worse."

She wanted to suggest keeping the child away from Yun Ruojin, the instigator.

But once she thought it was someone else's family matter, Lu Xiwán swallowed back what she wanted to say.

"I understand, you may go out." Fu Sijue said expressionlessly, and Lu Xiwán couldn't gauge his meaning.

"The wound hasn't been treated yet."

Fu Sijue buttoned his shirt, silently refusing Lu Xiwán.

His demeanor made Lu Xiwán seethe, so she packed her things and headed out.

As soon as she stepped outside, she saw a group waiting outside, each with an anxious expression.

Why they were anxious, she could not tell.

"Senior Brother, Xi Xi, let's go."

Yun Ruojin immediately smiled, her face clearly showing happiness.

Lu Xiwán's car was parked outside; she got in angrily, only to discover the fuel tank was already empty.

It's not just returning that's a problem; even descending the mountain is an issue.

Zhong Yun had been waiting behind for a while without seeing her drive, then walked over and knocked on the window.

"My car seems out of fuel; maybe I should just call a car." Lu Xiwán said, patting her forehead awkwardly.

She had been too anxious yesterday and forgot to check the fuel tank.

"It's a dead end, neither near a village nor a shop; by the time you find a car it'll be too late. Take my car for now; once we get down, we'll find a tow truck to bring the car back." Zhong Yun sighed helplessly.

At this point that's the only way, so Lu Xiwán resignedly turned off the engine, got out and lifted Xi Xi down.

"Mommy, aren't we going back with Uncle Fu and Brother Yao Yao?"

Xi Xi sulked, leaning against the car window, watching the Fu Family Old Residence recede.

Zhong Yun glanced at the two in the rearview mirror and said, "I tell you, Fu Lord can now even plot against his own grandson, and he'll be able to plot against you later; you'd better stay away from those Fu Family people—who knows what they're thinking."

Since the beginning, Zhong Yun had been holding back, which could be considered giving them face.

Lu Xixi, flustered, stood up at once, "No, Uncle Zhong Yun, you've only seen them twice; Brother Yao Yao is a good person, don't speak of them that way!"

The little girl spoke so persuasively that Lu Xiwán couldn't even conceal her.

"And you, Lu Xixi, I never realized you were so easily bought off."

Zhong Yun lamented bitterly, then continued venting to the two.

By the end, Lu Xiwán felt she had been brainwashed, merely nodding numbly in agreement.

After Lu Xixi was sent to kindergarten, she was left alone to endure Zhong Yun's constant venting.

"Senior Brother, I know everything you said; I promise to stay farther from Fu Sijue in the future, but don't think of him so badly." Lu Xiwán, half laughing, half crying, agreed to Zhong Yun's admonition.

Zhong Yun personally escorted Lu Xiwán to Fu Shi Building Below before leaving.

Lu Xiwán helplessly looked at her watch; she was already late.

Since that was the case, Lu Xiwán simply slowed her pace and didn't rush upward.

Just as she entered the office, a coquettishly dressed woman walked over; Lu Xiwán recognized her as someone who often hangs around Yun Ruojin as a lackey.

As for her name, Lu Xiwán didn't care and couldn't remember.

"What time is it now? You still remember to come to work; we've all been here for a while."
