Chapter 14

The one who returned to the country for treatment is Fu Sijue's child, and it was never said that she got involved with this man again!

Lu Xiwán pressed her lips together, a little helpless, "It's a long story, but rest assured I'll be careful."

She knows better than Luo Zhou what the consequences would be if Fu Sijue discovered that she is Lu Xiwán!

"What do you want from me today?"

At the dinner gathering, with Fu Sijue present, Lu Xiwán couldn't ask many questions; now that it's just the two of them, the conversation is much easier.

Luo Zhou only then remembered the real reason he came to see Lu Xiwán, "My old master has returned to the country. During this period, taking medicine hasn't worsened his condition, but he still often has nightmares, so I'd like to ask you to take a look again."

"This is no problem."

When the Luo old master was abroad, Lu Xiwán had been entrusted by Luo Zhou to treat him several times.

The old master is also a veteran; after fighting in the Korean War, he personally witnessed countless comrades fall before him, and those old memories have been deeply buried in his heart, leaving scars. Now, Hypnosis Psychological Counseling is indeed a good option.

"Thank you."

Luo Zhou then felt at ease, "In a few days I'll bring the old master here and get in touch with you again."

"Alright."

Lu Xiwán finished speaking and was about to turn away, but Luo Zhou grabbed her wrist, "What's wrong?"

Luo Zhou hesitated before speaking, "Wanwan, don't let yourself get hurt again because of Fu Sijue."

Lu Xiwán was stunned for a moment, then let out a light laugh, "I'm not a child; rest assured, it's just treatment, nothing else will happen."

She is no longer the little girl who had Fu Sijue everywhere in her eyes.

Even if she lives under the same roof as Fu Sijue, Lu Xiwán understands that their relationship is merely that of doctor and patient's family.

Beyond that, there is no other possibility!

"That's good."

Luo Zhou nodded, released his hand, "Go quickly; they're probably getting anxious."

On the car.

Lu Xiwán sat in the back seat with the two little ones, looked up and saw Fu Sijue driving seriously, and felt a bit dazed.

When she first learned she was pregnant, she never imagined such a warm scene: she and Fu Sijue bringing the children home under the stars and moon…

"Miss Xi?" Fu Sijue suddenly spoke, interrupting Lu Xiwán's reverie.

Lu Xiwán came back to herself, "What's up?"

"I'm just a bit curious about Miss Xi's relationship with Mr. Luo." That sounded a bit intrusive, Fu Sijue added, "The Fu Family and the Luo Family aren't exactly business partners; I hope Miss Xi won't bring Yao Yao next time to see those messy people."

Messy people?

"Uncle Luo Zhou is not a messy person at all! Uncle Luo Zhou is far better than you! You big Bad Uncle!" Xi Xi defended Luo Zhou stubbornly.

"…" Fu Sijue, for some reason, tightened his grip on the steering wheel. How had he offended this little kid? How had he become a "big Bad Uncle"?

"Luo Zhou isn't a messy person; we're good friends," Lu Xiwán said, a bit annoyed, defending her friend, then continued, "Yao Yao also needs to meet more people; he can't stay cooped up at home forever, he still has to study later."

Are we really good friends?

For some reason, after hearing that answer, Fu Sijue still felt a bit annoyed.

"Whatever you say."

For several days straight, Fu Sijue wore a sour face, leaving early and returning late; Lu Xiwán acted as if she hadn't noticed anything, giving Yao Yao Hypnosis Therapy daily, watching the little one's condition improve more and more.

Early that morning, when Lu Xiwán took the children downstairs after getting up, Fu Sijue hadn't left yet, which surprised her; she wondered what strange mood the man was in.

Fu Yao looked at his own dad, and felt a flutter of excitement in his heart.

Dad—does he have a crush on Mom Xi Xi? Otherwise, dad who never eats breakfast, why would he stay to have breakfast with them?

So letting Xi Xi's mom truly become her own mother—could that possibly happen?

Xi Xi straightened her body and went to get the egg custard on the table.

Unfortunately her little hand couldn't reach it; the next second the man's large hand grasped the bowl of egg custard and placed the bowl and spoon in front of Lu Xixi.

Lu Xixi stared at Fu Sijue as if she had discovered a new species, unable to believe Bad Uncle's sudden kindness.

Until Lu Xiwán spoke up, reminding, "Xi Xi, Mom taught you, when someone helps you, what should you say?"

Lu Xixi's little face flushed slightly, and she awkwardly said, "Thank you, Bad Uncle."

……

Fu Sijue, seeing the moment was right, said, "Eat up; if you like it, I'll have the kitchen make it for you every day."

Lu Xixi lifted her head and ate obediently, thinking that as long as he doesn't bully Mom in the future, she could still play together with Yao Yao's brother's dad.

Who made him say he would give Xi Xi the egg custard?

After the meal, Lu Xiwán and Fu Sijue didn't exchange much, but just after finishing, Fu Sijue patted Yao Yao's head and solemnly looked at Lu Xiwán.

"Xi Wan, thank you!"

Lu Xiwán was stunned for a moment, then realized he was thanking her for Yao Yao's steadily improving condition; she gave a polite smile, "It's only natural; after all, Mr. Fu paid the fee."

Fu Sijue: "……" The emotions he had barely calmed now suddenly soured; what was happening?

Lu Xiwán suddenly recalled the arrangement she had made with Luo Zhou a few days ago, thinking she still needed to report to Fu Sijue, "I have something to attend to today and need to go out; Yao Yao should also go out to meet more people, so I want to take them together."

Fu Sijue, still irritated by her distant attitude toward him, gave Lu Xiwán a plaintive look, nodded, said little, and left.

"???" Lu Xiwán was puzzled; are rich people's faces always that changeable?

Too lazy to think further, she brought some toys for Xi Xi to play with downstairs, then took Fu Yao back upstairs to begin the daily treatment.

Fu Yao's condition has basically stabilized recently; it seems that as long as Gu Qingmeng doesn't appear, the little guy's recovery is just a matter of time.
