Chapter 82: I Want You All to Stay by My Side Forever

~4 min read 771 words

Fu Sijue wore a cold expression and said nothing, while Xi Xi smiled softly at Lu Xiwán.

"Maybe Uncle Fu is jealous."

Lu Xiwán heard that and just wanted to scold someone.

Who is Fu Sijue? How could he possibly do something so boring?

"Xi Xi, stop talking nonsense," Lu Xiwán pressed down the restless Lu Xixi, but forgot there was a little imp in the ward.

Yao Yao propped his chin and looked at the resentful Fu Sijue, "I think Daddy is just jealous."

Lu Xiwán's face turned ashen as she stared at the two of them, "Go down now and find Uncle Driver!"

Lu Xixi tugged Fu Yao and ran out, leaving only the two of them alone in the ward.

"Mr. Fu can state directly if he's dissatisfied with my earlier arrangement,"

Lu Xiwán grabbed the everyday clothes on the bed, entered the changing room, and when she emerged, she sensed an aura of a resentful woman emanating from Fu Sijue.

"What exactly is your relationship with Zhong Yun?"

Lu Xiwán raised an eyebrow slightly, turned back in disbelief to look at Fu Sijue.

"Allow me to remind you, right now we are merely in a cooperative relationship,"

Lu Xiwán was irritated by Fu Sijue's attitude.

He always acted as if he were above everyone, demanding that all obey his will.

"If I recall correctly, just a few days ago Mr. Fu was fervently mourning his late wife, and now he's meddling in my affairs—does Mr. Fu really have such boundless generosity?"

Lu Xiwán's tone was harsh, bluntly questioning Fu Sijue.

"So it's just putting on a show, then?" Lu Xiwán forced a bitter smile.

It's laughable that she hesitated; she actually believed the façade Fu Sijue displayed.

Fu Sijue was left speechless by those words.

In his memory, Lu Xiwán's face kept overlapping with the face of Xi Wan before his eyes.

The ambiguous emotions made it hard for him to discern, so he simply grabbed Lu Xiwán's arm and pulled her into his embrace.

The sandalwood scent from the man's body instantly assaulted Lu Xiwán's nostrils, his dominant aura flooding her mouth.

Fu Sijue pressed against the back of her head, deepening the kiss.

Lu Xiwán's head swayed from the forced kiss, her eyes widened in disbelief, intent to resist but held down tightly.

Two fluffy little heads at the doorway snapped Lu Xiwán's thoughts back to reality; Fu Sijue also realized something, the rigid shackles loosening a bit, and she seized the moment to forcefully push away Fu Sijue's hand that had been holding her.

Lu Xixi also realized the trail had been discovered, and before Lu Xiwán could speak, she grabbed Fu Yao and bolted.

In a panic, Lu Xiwán fiercely bit Fu Sijue's thin lip, and at that moment both mouths were filled with a heavy metallic scent.

"Mr. Fu must be crazy," Lu Xiwán said coldly, staring at Fu Sijue's split lip.

One must admit, having a good façade is still important.

Even in this disheveled state, the bloodstain at Fu Sijue's lip corner added a further sense of brokenness.

Lu Xiwán quickly averted her gaze from him.

Sitting in the car, the two remained silent, when Xi Xi suddenly tugged Lu Xiwán's arm.

"Mommy, do you remember what day the day after tomorrow is?" her big eyes were full of anticipation.

Lu Xiwán deliberately tilted her head, pondering for a while, while Lu Xixi pursed her lips, on the verge of crying without tears.

"Mommy, do you really not like Xi Xi anymore? Why can't you even remember Xi Xi's birthday?"

Lu Xiwán's gloomy mood was swept away, she couldn't help laughing at Lu Xixi's display.

"How could Mom possibly forget your birthday? The gifts are all prepared for you,"

Lu Xiwán gently tapped Xi Xi's nose.

She suddenly felt a scorching gaze and turned to see Fu Sijue staring directly at her.

Fu Sijue's eyes were full of confusion, "Both children's birthdays fall on the same day, and Yao Yao's is the day after tomorrow as well."

Yao Yao bit his lip, lifted his head and glanced at Fu Sijue.

Daddy actually remembered his birthday!

Lu Xiwán's expression froze for an instant—was this really a coincidence?

"Now that's truly a coincidence, just right for them to celebrate together,"

Fu Sijue slightly lowered his gaze and said nothing further.

"Yao Yao, what gift do you want?" Lu Xiwán asked, a smile in her eyes as she looked at Yao Yao.

"I want Mom and little sister Xi Xi to stay by my side forever, never leaving me!" Yao Yao declared firmly.
