ead.Fu Xiaoyao looked up at the ceiling, holding back her tears. "But everyone thinks it was my fault for marrying him. Over time, I started to believe that too, even Mr. Lu himself must have thought..."There's nothing much to say." Fu Xiaoyao pulled her sweater collar up, covering her mouth and nose.

Actually, over the past two days, she had also been thinking about this issue, wondering if Lu Hanchuan was truly worthy of her love.

But after much thought, she couldn't come up with an answer.

However, what Tang Yi just said made her very concerned. Although it was Lu Hanchuan who made the mistakes in all these things and who owed her an apology, he didn't show any intention of apologizing to her at all. So she suddenly felt quite sad.

"What are you thinking about" Tang Yi caught Fu Xiaoyao's distraction and was a little curious.

Fu Xiaoyao shook her head. "It's nothing, just drop me off at a hotel."

She wearily closed her eyes.

Tang Yi raised an eyebrow in surprise, "A hotel So you don't have a place to live"

"Hmm." Fu Xiaoyao replied.

Tang Yi twitched the corner of her mouth, "Then you're really bold, running away from home without a place to stay Does Lu Zong know"

He didn't know.

"Well, it seems he's not interested in you then," Tang Yi scoffed.

Fu Xiaoyao tightened her hands clasped on her lap, saying nothing.

Tang Yi shook his head and said, "Forget it, you don't have to stay at the hotel. It's not safe there. I'll take you to my place instead."

"Where are you" Fu Xiaoyao suddenly opened her eyes, looking at his perfect profile in astonishment.

Tang Yi nodded. "Yes, but don't worry, it's not a villa in the villa area, but an apartment under my name. I only stay there when I'm very busy and can't get back to the villa, so everything like furniture and appliances is complete."

“This...” Fu Xiaoyao was a little moved, but soon she shook her head and refused, “Forget it, your apartment must be very expensive, I can’t afford the rent. I’ll just stay in a hotel first and then find a cheap house.”

"Hee hee." Upon hearing her words, Tang Yi couldn't help but chuckle. "You're really adorable. I never said you had to pay rent, so rest assured, it's free for you to stay here."

"Free" Fu Xiaoyao looked at him suspiciously, "Are you being sincere"

"Am I just a bad person in your heart" Tang Yi was unhappy.

Fu Xiaoyao awkwardly coughed lightly, "That... isn't it like that, you don't misunderstand, I just..."

"Up to this point, I've never done anything bad to you, have I" Tang Yi interrupted.

Fu Xiaoyao was choked and speechless.

He was right. Since they met, he had never done anything bad to her, at most he would take verbal advantage of her.

That's also why her impression of him was just average.

"See, you have nothing to say. That means I'm not a bad person. I let you stay for free, and it's because we met before. If it were someone else, I wouldn't even bother. So that's settled. I'll take you to my apartment."

After he finished speaking, he stepped on the gas and drove in a different direction. Fu Xiaoyao wanted to stop him but it was too late. He took her to his apartment.

His apartment was also located in the city center, but it wasn't in the same place as Lu Hanchuan's. However, it was also a place only wealthy people in City C could afford to live in.

Tap!

Tang Yi switched on the lamp, and the bright light instantly illuminated the entire apartment.

Fu Xiaoyao only then saw the layout of the apartment. It was neither as large as Lu Hanchuan's nor as simply elegant as his decoration. Everywhere you looked, there was a luxurious atmosphere, and even the displayed items gave off a feeling of extreme wealth.

All in all, Tang Yi's apartment gave Fu Xiaoyao the first impression of being rich and gaudy!

"Aren't you afraid I'll steal your things" Fu Xiaoyao pointed at a very expensive-looking lighter on the coffee table.

Tang Yi took off his coat and sat down, laughing heartily, "Steal whatever you want, it's just some small trinkets to me anyway."

"You're really generous." Fu Xiaoyao also sat down.

Tang Yi poured himself a glass of red wine, "Not as good as Lu Zong's, would you like some"

He swirled his wine and asked her.

Fu Xiaoyao waved her hand to decline.

Tang Yi shrugged slightly, a touch of regret in his eyes. He didn't try to dissuade her and instead started drinking by himself.

After finishing, he picked up his coat and put it over his arm, "Alright, you can stay here from now on. I'm leaving now, get some rest."

After he finished speaking, he walked toward the door.

Fu Xiaoyao also followed, then stopped at the entrance hall and bowed deeply to him, "Tang Yi, thank you."

"What are you thanking me for I just hope you'll be nicer to me in the future." Tang Yi rubbed her hair and then, facing away from her, waved his hand and walked towards the elevator.

Fu Xiaoyao watched him enter the ladder to heaven, then closed the door and returned to her apartment.

This is Tang Yi's apartment, and she naturally didn't have any ideas about visiting. She directly chose a guest room to go in and prepare to rest.

It was late evening now, the sky outside had turned completely dark and it was starting to rain lightly.

Fu Xiaoyao took a quick shower and lay down on the bed. Then, for some unknown reason, she took out her phone and went through her call logs, WeChat and any other software that could be used to contact people.

The result after viewing is that there are no new call records or unread messages.

She smiled wryly, tossing her phone aside, her heart heavy with disappointment. “What a waste of time...”

Even though she knew Lu Hanchuan probably wouldn't contact her, she still held out hope that she would see a call or message from him on her phone.

As a result, none of them.

Fu Xiao Yao, feeling upset, rolled around on the bed to vent her frustration.

After venting, she fell silent and quietly stared at the ceiling for a while, listening to the patter of rain outside. Her heart finally calmed down.

She didn't know how long she had been staring at the ceiling, her eyes aching, until she finally sighed and turned off the light. She pulled the covers over her head and prepared to sleep.

The next day, Fu Xiaoyao was woken up by the doorbell.

She opened her eyes in a daze, finding herself lying in a strange room. She was startled for a moment.

But she soon remembered that she had run away from home yesterday and was taken in by Tang Yi.

So this is Tang Yi's apartment.

After organizing her memories from last night, Fu Xiaoyao's mood calmed down. She yawned and got out of bed to open the door.

Tang Yi stood outside the door with two breakfast boxes in hand. When he saw her, a bright smile spread across his face. "Good morning,"

"Good morning." Fu Xiaoyao also smiled at him, stepping aside to let him pass.

After Tang Yi came in, he put the breakfast on the table, while unwrapping it and talking to her, "Did you sleep well"

Fu Xiaoyao turned her somewhat stiff neck, "It's fine, it's just that the pillow is too low."

"There are other pillows in the walk-in closet in my room. You can pick one that suits you later." Tang Yi passed her chopsticks.

Fu Xiaoyao took it in surprise and thanked her hastily.

Tang Yi waved his hand, "You don't have to be so polite to me, just eat."

"Hmm..." Fu Xiaoyao nodded and sat down opposite him.

During the meal, both of them remained silent.

Until breakfast was served, Tang Yi elegantly wiped the corner of her lips before breaking the silence that had just fallen. "I saw President Lu last night. Guess where I saw him"

Fu Xiaoyao was also wiping her mouth. Hearing his words, her movements suddenly stopped. "Where"

"You still care about him, don't you" Tang Yi teased.

Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips, without denying his words.

Tang Yi didn't mean to beat around the bush. He put down his napkin, took another sip of coffee, and then replied directly, "In my villa."

"What" Fu Xiaoyao was stunned, then blinked and hurriedly asked, "He went to look for you"o swallow a company whole, but she wasn't doing it under the guise of Xiao Bao's mother. Instead, she used her public identity as Shi Yao to do it.This is the benefit of hiding one's identity, everyth...
