silence on the other end of the line.After a while, Qi Ya's voice rang out again, "Fine, since it's Master Lu intervening, I won't meddle this time, but next time I won't let it go so easily."Hearing..."Why did you suddenly bring her up" Shao Sian's lips curled into a slight smile, his eyes flashing with a sharp glint. "Didn't you say she was an unimportant person Since she's unimportant, whether or not she has aftereffects has nothing to do with you."
Lu Hanchuan's face darkened, "I said those words, but that doesn't mean I want to see her get hurt."
"It seems you still care about her quite a bit." Shao Si said with a youthful smile.
Lu Hánchuan impatiently pursed his lips, "Answer my question!"
“Alright, alright, I’ll tell you.” Shao Siniang sat up straight and became serious. “Her physical condition is still good, but whether there will be any aftereffects, I can’t be sure. After all, the last time she had a checkup wasn’t by me. So, how about this, you bring her here to me, and I’ll personally give her a check-up.”
"Okay, I'll take her there in a while." Lu Hanchuan readily agreed without hesitation.
After hanging up the phone, he took off his suit jacket from the rack and strode out of the office.
"Fu Xiaoyao." Lu Hanchuan stopped at the door of Fu Xiaoyao's office and knocked twice.
Fu Xiaoyao raised her head from behind the computer, a pair of ugly and clunky black-rimmed glasses still perched on her nose bridge, "Lu總"
"Why are you wearing glasses" Lu Hanchuan frowned, his tone slightly disdainful.
This woman, she dresses dowdily at best, and even her glasses lack taste.
Fu Xiaoyao stood up and replied, "I've been staring at the computer for too long and I have some nearsightedness. I can't see clearly without my glasses."
"I don't know you have this problem" 陸寒川 raised an eyebrow.
"That was a long time ago," Fu Xiaoyao smiled casually.
There are many things about her that he doesn't know.
But she treasured every detail about him in her heart.
"Alright, come with me." Not paying any attention to Fu Xiaoyao's glasses, Lu Hanchuan put on the coat slung over his arm and spoke in a cold voice.
"Where to" Fu Xiaoyao touched the back of her neck, looking at him in confusion.
"The hospital."
"What are you going to the hospital for"
Lu Hanchuan, while lowering his eyes to send a message to Qiao assistant to arrange a car, responded faintly, "I told you last time, I wanted to take you for a full body checkup to see if there would be any after-effects after you donated bone marrow."
Fu Xiaoyao's expression on her face gradually solidified, and her heart ached.
She remembered, he had indeed said something like that last time, and told her not to get sick within two months.
But at that time, she didn't know he was after her bone marrow, thinking he was truly concerned about her, and she was happy for a long time because of it.
Only now did she fully understand. He had her undergo a full medical examination not to prevent her from getting sick, but to ensure the health of her bone marrow.
Thinking of this, Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip and asked, "If there are after-effects, would you still let me donate"
Lu Hanchuan's typing paused. He raised his eyes to look at her pale face and suddenly found himself unable to answer her question.
Logic told him that if she really had aftereffects, he shouldn't let her donate bone marrow.
On the other hand, Xiaoya's bone marrow is special and currently only her bone marrow can save him. If they don't let her donate because she might have after-effects, then Xiaoya will die....
Neither of these two outcomes is what he wanted.
"Let's decide that later." Lu Hanchuan lowered his eyelids, a sense of helplessness he had never felt before rising in his heart.
"I understand." Fu Xiaoyao took a deep breath, forcing down the urge to cry, "Shall we go to the hospital now"
He didn't give a clear answer to her question, was he saying that even if there were aftereffects, he would still let her donate bone marrow
Lu Hanchuan hummed, "I'll go now!"
"But I still have a lot of work left to do, can I..."
"I've had Qiao Mu come over to take over." Lu Hanchuan put away his phone, interrupting her with an unquestionable tone.
Fu Xiaoyao knew this trip was a necessary evil, so she didn't say anything more. She lowered her head and silently packed her bag, following him out of the company.
In the car, Fu Xiaoyao kept staring blankly out the window, without uttering a word. Her silence was unsettling.
Lu Hanchuan glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. Seeing her frowning, he thought she was worried about aftereffects. He rarely offered comfort, but this time he said, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."
Fu Xiaoyao seemed to have not heard, with no reaction at all.
Lu Hanchuan pursed his thin lips, "Fu Xiaoyao, I'm talking to you."
"I heard you," Fu Xiaoyao finally responded, but she didn't turn her head back, still looking out the window, "Some things, aren't something that won't happen just because you say they won't."
Lu Hanchuan was taken aback and fell silent.
The atmosphere in the car began to grow oppressive, the air dropping several degrees. Silence descended, broken only by the sound of each other's breathing.
... in silence.
At the hospital, Lu Hanchuan parked the car and got out first. He walked around the front of the car to help Fu Xiaoyao open the door.
For the first time being treated so specially, Fu Xiaoyao couldn't help but be surprised and even felt a sense of being valued by him.
But this feeling was immediately dashed when she saw the hospital gates.
"Let's go." Lu Hanchuan threw the car keys to the valet and turned back to look at the woman behind him.
The woman nodded and followed his steps.
Lu Hánchuan directly took Fù Xiǎoyáo to Shào Sīnián's office. Shào Sīnián, seeing them, waved for the nurses around him to leave.
"You're here!"
"Si Nian, I'll leave her to you." Lu Hanchuan pushed Fu Xiaoyao toward Shao Si Nian.
Shao Si Nian smiled, “Then sister-in-law, let's go. Let's get your blood checked first.”
"...Good." Fu Xiaoyao tugged at the corners of her mouth.
In the blood draw room, Shao Sini drew a full tube of blood from Fu Xiaoyao. Seeing that she was expressionless, not even frowning, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, "Sister-in-law is quite brave. She didn't even cry out in pain."
"Used to it." Fu Xiaoyao pressed the cotton swab, a faint smile.
"Habit" Shao Si Nian handed the tube of blood to the nurse to be tested and sat down to chat with her.
Fu Xiaoyao nodded slightly, "I was beaten from a young age by my mother. This kind of pain is nothing compared to the pain of being beaten."
"Is your mom not good to you"
"She favors sons over daughters." Fu Xiaoyao saw that the bleeding had stopped, she discarded the cotton swab and pulled her sleeve down.
Shao Si Nian's mouth twitched, "Then sister-in-law, you really are not easy."
"It's all in the past." Fu Xiaoyao shrugged slightly.
She was never loved by her parents since she was a child.
When she was little, she would be sad because her parents loved her brother more.
But now she doesn't anymore, she only feels drained because they constantly ask her for money without any bottom line.
"Doctor Shao, could you come over here for a moment" The phlebotomist suddenly walked over.
Shao Si Nian pushed his glasses up. “What’s wrong”
The nurse looked at Fu Xiaoyao, her mouth opening and closing as if she wanted to speak but hesitated.
Fu Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately reacted, "Could it be something to do with my blood test"
"Sister-in-law, don't worry first, I'll go take a look." Shao Si Nian comforted her, and left with the nurse.
"What's going on" he asked in the evolution lab, his expression serious.
"Miss Fu's blood test results are here. This is Miss Fu's, and this is Miss Qi's. You can compare them yourselves." The nurse handed two sets of blood test results to Shao Sinián.
Shao Siniu took it and was astonished, "How could this be Are you sure you didn't make a mistake"
"No, I've checked several times, and the results are always the same."
Shao Si Nian fell silent, the eyes behind his glasses flickering on and off. After a few minutes, he suddenly clenched the two reports in his hand and glared at the nurse, "You are not allowed to leak this, and you must not let anyone know about it, or else you will face the consequences!"
The nurse turned ashen and nodded repeatedly.
Fu Xiaoyao saw Shao Sian coming out with a furrowed brow, her heart pounding. She immediately stood up from her chair, "Doctor Shao, is there really something wrong with my blood test"o mumbled, clutching her phone.She'd rather these two text messages were from the Tang family or Qi Dongming and his daughter. At least that way she'd know they were the ones causing trouble.If it wer...
