Seeing her daughter's weary face, Zheng QiuZhi could only let out a long sigh at last.

"I'm sorry, it's Mom's fault. I let you down!"

She also knows she shouldn't always instill fear of men in her daughter, after all, she will eventually get married, but she is afraid! Afraid that her daughter will be confused again and get hurt!

“What kind of burden, Mom After your surgery, the doctor said you might be able to get out of bed and walk! When that happens, you must make me a big plate of dumplings. I'm craving them so much.”

"That's good." Zheng Qiuzhi nodded, then suddenly thought of something. "Your boyfriend, tell him to come over. I want to meet him."

Xu Qinghuan was startled and, feeling guilty, averted her gaze as she picked up an apple and began to peel it. "He's very busy, with a lot of things going on at the company."

"Your father back then was—"

"Mom!" she gently interrupted. "Not everyone is like him."

At the very least, her intuition told Xu Qinghuan that Fu Yan was not that kind of person.

When Zheng Qiu-zhi heard this, it sounded more like a daughter defending her boyfriend! Her face immediately darkened. While she didn't say anything else, she also didn't take the apple Xu Qinghuan offered.

The sky outside gradually darkened.

Her mother had already been taken care of, and she still had to return to the company early the next morning. So after her mother fell asleep, Xu Qinghuan left the hospital.

After she walked out, she took a deep breath and then hailed a taxi. She went to his residence according to Fu Yan's instructions.

As soon as he got out of the car, his phone in his bag started ringing.

Looking down, it was a string of unfamiliar numbers.

"Are you back"

His deep and magnetic voice was so distinctive, she couldn't help but notice it.

"Yes, I'm here."

"I have a last-minute social engagement here, so I'll be back later. Please go in first." He paused and added, "The door code is FX0825."

Suddenly hearing this string of numbers, she instinctively froze for a moment before saying okay.

As soon as she stepped inside, Xu Qinghuan was putting on her shoes and thinking, "The meaning behind this 0825 must be more profound than I initially imagined!" He hadn't removed his tattoo nor changed his password. This meant Fu Yanxi still had feelings for that person in his heart.

So he said he needed a spouse, he must really be trying to get back at that crush of his – the chief lawyer named Xia Wan'yu that Fu JiaJia mentioned.

Because you see, the password for Fu Yan Shi's house door is like this: F represents Fu, X represents Xia, it's simply perfect to crack.

Xu Qinghuan also couldn't tell what she was feeling at the moment, um, most likely she had been passively made a substitute.

She originally planned to take off her coat and go straight to her computer to work, but as soon as she looked up, her attention was drawn to the large bag of things that Fu Yan Shi's assistant had just delivered.

A whole bag, I'm not exaggerating at all, with red and green boxes inside, there are at least ten of them.

Xu Qinghuan subconsciously coughed a few times, her face burning red in an instant. She quickly left the place as if avoiding a virus.

As soon as Fu Jiajia saw Xu Qinghuan online on the company's internal software, she immediately sent a message.

Who was that man's voice on the phone

Xu Qinghuan chose not to tell her about this. It wasn't something glorious, and the contract was only for a year. She should be able to keep it hidden.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of a lock being picked suddenly came from the front door.

Xu Qinghuan got up and walked over, but before she could speak, Fu Yan's tall and strong body pressed her against the wall in the living room. Then, a kiss filled with the scent of alcohol came overwhelmingly!

"Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu! Don't be here, please..."r pointless, Zhou Sizhe," she frowned, adjusting her emotions before looking into his eyes. "Doing this will only make me the villain in the end! It'll be me preventing you from seeing your child, me...
