Chapter 83: How Did She End Up Seducing Fu Sijue?

~5 min read 814 words

Lu Xiwán fell silent, patting Yao Yao's little head.

"Let's hold Xi Xi's birthday banquet together with Yao Yao."

Yao Yao shook his head lightly, "I don't want those people to celebrate my birthday; I only need little sister Xi Xi and Mommy to be here."

The atmosphere grew tense again, and just when Lu Xiwán thought Fu Sijue would refuse, he unexpectedly agreed!

Lu Xiwán's gaze turned to Fu Sijue, unable to discern what he was thinking.

Fu Sijue met Lu Xiwán's eyes calmly and replied coolly, "If Yao Yao doesn't like it, we won't do it."

His phone rang, interrupting the conversation.

"Grandpa? Tonight? Okay… um, I'll take Yao Yao back together."

From the call, Lu Xiwán could guess who it was and shifted her gaze toward the window.

"I want to go back with Mommy," Yao Yao clung tightly to Lu Xiwán's arm.

Fu Sijue stared for a while, then finally nodded helplessly in agreement.

The group changed course directly to the Fu Family Old Residence.

The steward had been waiting outside, eagerly taking the supplements the driver had taken out of the trunk.

"The elderly gentleman is waiting inside; President Fu finally returned."

When the steward saw Lu Xiwán behind Fu Sijue, his expression froze for a moment.

Fu Sijue sensed the steward's gaze and, in a calm tone, explained, "Yao Yao still can't be without a psychologist."

The steward nodded lightly, silently leading them into the Zhuangyuan.

Before entering, Lu Xiwán heard joyous laughter coming from inside the house; a young woman's laugh rang clearly through the door.

Fu Sijue frowned slightly, then turned his gaze toward the steward.

The steward lowered his head without speaking, offering no explanation.

Lu Xiwán suddenly felt embarrassed; no wonder the steward's look earlier was so odd—he had been waiting here.

"President Fu will know once he goes inside."

When the group entered, they saw Fu Mingcheng laughing nonstop, teased by Yun Ruojin.

The old gentleman's smiling face turned red, showing how happy he was.

"You finally came back, kid. Are you going to make me schedule an appointment just to see you in a few years?" Fu Mingcheng looked displeased at Fu Sijue.

He also noticed Lu Xiwán, squinting slightly, his sharp gaze scrutinizing her.

"What does it mean that you brought a woman here?"

Fu Mingcheng exuded authority without anger; his aura of pressure was even stronger than Fu Sijue's.

When he reached for Yao Yao, Fu Mingcheng smiled again, "Yao Yao, come quickly so Grandfather can hug you."

"This is Yao Yao's psychologist, the one I mentioned to you before."

Fu Mingcheng snorted coldly, "What's wrong with a child? You were the same when you were young, and there was nothing wrong with it!"

Yun Ruojin stood up, her face flushed with shyness, and walked to Fu Sijue's side.

"Grandpa just told me a lot about you,"

Fu Sijue glanced at Yun Ruojin, "How did she end up here?"

Fu Sijue, clearly displeased, in front of Yun Ruojin, took Lu Xiwán's wrist and led her to the sofa.

"You won't come back yourself, yet you won't let other people's children keep me company? You're trying to drive me crazy!"

Fu Mingcheng, angered by Fu Sijue, blew his beard and glared, his gaze dropping to the obedient Xi Xi.

"Where did this little girl come from?" Fu Mingcheng looked at the cute little dumpling, his heart melting.

Lu Xiwán: "She's my child; no one was looking after me, so I brought her here."

Fu Mingcheng nodded seriously, gesturing to Lu Xixi, "Come to Grandfather here."

Yun Ruojin was left aside, extremely embarrassed, and awkwardly walked back to sit beside Fu Mingcheng.

"Lu Xiwán has been missing for such a long time, and the Gu Family maid is like that; what do you plan to do?"

Fu Mingcheng looked at the two children and felt genuine happiness, yet he didn't forget the matter at hand.

"I will find Wanwan," Fu Sijue said, his expression unchanged, answering calmly.

At the mention of this, Fu Mingcheng became incensed, "After searching for so many years, you still aren't satisfied? The Fu Clan needs a lady of the house!"

Yun Ruojin quickly patted Fu Mingcheng's back to soothe him, while casting a longing glance at Fu Sijue.

The air was so sweetly cloying it seemed to pull threads, and Lu Xiwán felt a chill.

Miss Yun was probably returning to the country because of Fu Sijue.

"I remember the last time I saw A Jue at the competition arena, there was a woman beside him; I thought she was your girlfriend… it can't be that kind of ambitious fox spirit, right?"

Yun Ruojin pretended surprise, looking at Fu Sijue.

Lu Xiwán was inexplicably labeled a fox spirit, and felt a surge of indignation.

How did it become that she was the one who lured Fu Sijue?
