ff of its neck. If she doesn't satisfy him, she has only one fate: to be toyed with at his whim. So, there's only one path left for her to take.Thinking of this, Fu Xiaoyao clenched her hands tightly..."Why didn't you ask me why I came here" Qi Ya stepped forward two steps, walking up to Fu Xiaoyao, but she didn't dare get too close. She stopped about three or four steps away from her.

Fu Xiaoyao saw her action and a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, "Are you afraid of me"

Qi Ya's face was a little unnatural, "Who, who is afraid of you"

"Then why are you standing so far away" Fu Xiaoyao's lips curled up.

Qi Ya glared at her, "I just don't want to be too close to you crazy woman!"

"Oh, is that so" Fu Xiaoyao tossed her hair behind her ear and said sarcastically, "But I don't feel like you're telling the truth. You're afraid of me, aren't you Because last time at the Fashion Mall, I embarrassed you, right"

"Fu Xiaoyao, will you shut up" Qi Ya immediately thought of the humiliation she received last time when she heard the three words "Fashion Pavilion," and her face twisted with anger.

Fu Xiaoyao saw her so frantic, only felt happy in her heart, "No, but I have to admire your courage. You actually dare to stop me now, aren't you afraid that I will do something to you again"

As she spoke, Fu Xiaoyao feigned a raise of her arm.

Qi Ya, seeing this, instinctively retracted her neck and shouted, "Don't come over!"

"I didn't come over," Fu Xiaoyao put down her hand and burst out laughing, her laughter filled with mockery.

Qi Ya heard the laughter and realized she had been tricked. Her face flushed red and white with anger, "Ahhhh! Fu Xiaoyao!"

"What are you roaring about" Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her ears in annoyance.

Qi Ya's chest heaved violently, her fists clenched tightly. But soon, she took a deep breath and calmed down, sneering: "Fu Xiaoyao, you can be arrogant now, but there will come a day when you cry."

This caused Fu Xiaoyao's brows to furrow deeply, "Is that so It seems like you're about to pull some kind of scheme again."

Qi Ya's eyes flashed with a strange light, "Guess"

"I'm sorry, I don't want to guess. You can come with all your schemes and plots, I'll meet them head-on. As for what you said about coming here for, Grandfather has already told me. Hanchuan will never marry you." Fu Xiaoyao looked at her coldly.

Qi Ya tousled her wig, "You say it's impossible Don't forget, you heard Han Chuan with your own ears yesterday..."

"Just because he says it doesn't mean it's true," Fu Xiaoyao interrupted.

Qi Ya narrowed her eyes, "Whether what he said is true or false, as long as he agreed, he has to marry me."

"Joke!" Fu Xiaoyao scoffed, rolling her eyes. "Hanchuan only said he's considering it, he didn't say he agreed. Even if he agreed, he wouldn't get past Grandfather. Grandfather wouldn't accept you as his granddaughter-in-law."

"What if that old thing died" Qi Ya's words were shocking.

Fu Xiaoyao's pupils contracted, "What did you say"

“I said, if that old geezer died, wouldn’t everyone just back off I know he doesn’t like me, so I came over today to deliberately piss him off. I wanted to make him see red, but I didn't expect that old man's heart was pretty tough; he didn't even faint.” Qi Ya said this while her face was full of unwillingness.

Fu Xiaoyao's eyes were red with anger, she couldn't listen anymore and slapped her directly.

With a slap, Qi Ya was knocked to the ground, her whole body stunned.

Fu Xiaoyao stood before her, looking down at her with a condescending gaze. "Your mouth and your heart are both so venomous. You actually dare to curse grandpa!"

Qi Ya reacted, covering her face and snarling venomously: "What's wrong with a curse If it wasn't for that old geezer, I would have been with Hanchuan long ago. It wouldn't be your turn at all! Is it wrong for me to want him dead"

"You're insane!" Fu Xiaoyao shook her head in disbelief. "You blame everything on your grandfather, thinking he's responsible for all this. Haven't you ever thought about yourself If your heart were as beautiful as your face, your grandfather would never have stopped you from being with Hanchuan"

Qi Ya didn't like to hear this. Just about to retort, Fu Xiaoyao continued, "And I really don't understand, you clearly don't love Hanchuan, yet you want to keep him hanging and marry him, just because of your ridiculous possessiveness Does Roland know"

Qi Ya instantly became agitated when she mentioned Roland, raising her head to glare at her with a sinister look. "What does this have to do with you You don't know anything about it!"

She didn't truly love Lu Hanchuan. Hanging onto him wasn't just because of possessiveness; there was another, more important reason: his wealth!

Although she was the only daughter in the Qi family, she always knew that her father didn't really want to leave the Qi family for her to inherit. He still longed for a son, even though he hadn't been able to have one all these years. Deep down, she never felt secure, so she had to make plans for herself and marry into a family even more powerful than the Qi family.

Only then could her father possibly give the Qi family to her as dowry. That way, she wouldn't only get all of the Qi family's assets, but she could also escape her identity as a nouveau riche heiress and become a true wealthy wife. And all this, only Lu Hantian could give her. Roland couldn't.

She did love Roland, but she had never thought about marrying him. She only ever wanted to marry Lu Hanchuan.

Fu Xiaoyao looked at Qi Ya's unpredictable changes, sometimes frantic, sometimes ferocious face, a hint of disgust in her eyes, "I really don't know anything, but I know you're thinking about other people's husbands, you are shameless! You're disgusting!"

"Yes, I'm shameless, so what" Qi Ya staggered to her feet. "People are punished by heaven if they don't help themselves. As long as I want it, I must get it, no matter what means I use. So Fu Xiaoyao, remember this, Lu Hanchuan is mine, and can only be mine!"

"Then don't even think about it, he'll never be yours." Fu Xiaoyao retorted defiantly.

Qi Ya Yin smiled ominously, "Is that so Then let's wait and see. Next, I won't just make you feel all the betrayals, but I'll also have you suffer the same pain as when you lost your child."

After she finished speaking, she turned and walked away.

Fu Xiaoyao watched Qi Ya's back, her lips pursed tightly, feeling quite uneasy in her heart.

She originally wanted to grab Qi Ya and force her to reveal what she was planning, but her rationality stopped her.

This is a sanatorium, but not an ordinary one. Those who come here to recuperate are all high-status individuals. She couldn't let them see the Lu family's embarrassment and then go report it to the old master.

Besides, she had just slapped Qi Ya and was almost relieved. As for Qi Ya's curse on the grandfather, let Lu Hanchuan handle it. She believed Lu Hanchuan wouldn't let it go that easily.

Fine, Fu Xiaoyao sighed deeply and walked towards the car.

In the evening, Lü Hánchuan came back, seeming to have something on his mind, his brows furrowed.

Fu Xiaoyao poured him a cup of tea, "What's the matter"

"It's fine." Lu Hanchuan took a sip of tea. "How is Grandpa today"

"Not bad, your complexion looks a little better." Fu Xiaoyao replied.

Lu Hanchuan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly. "That's good, thank you for your hard work."

"No, no." Fu Xiaoyao waved her hands repeatedly, saying a little embarrassedly, "I haven't done much to take care of grandpa. There's Uncle Fu and the medical staff. I just read the newspaper to grandpa and things like that. It's not hard at all. You're the one who's tired today because you were too busy to see grandpa."

Lu Hannan smiled faintly when he heard this, "I'll go tomorrow."

"Well, your grandfather would be very happy if you went to see him." Xiaoyao nodded and then her little face became serious. "By the way, Qi Ya went to the nursing home to see Grandfather today. Do you know that" he was stingy!Fu Xiaoyao lowered her head and smiled sheepishly, "Are you angry""No." Lu Hanchuan pursed his lips.Fu Xiaoyao moved her steps to stand beside him, "You clearly weren't happy just now....
