Chapter 10 : Mr. takes care of the sick Qianqian

When Lu Yunbai came back from the Fu family, he immediately asked someone to investigate Lu Yunxiang’s recent actions.

Sure enough, they found some clues.

“Wretched woman! Who gave you the audacity to drive your car to hit Old Madam Fu? Do you want to destroy the Lu family?”

Furious, Lu Yunbai stormed into Lu Yunxiang’s room and kicked the door open.

The door slammed into the wall with a loud thud, then rebounded sharply.

Lu Yunxiang had hoped she wouldn’t be discovered, but she had underestimated the power of the wealthy.

With a forced smile, she flattered, “Brother, it’s not what you think. It was an accidental mistake, not intentional…”

She was dressed in a white dress, and the room was decorated in shades of pink.

“I am not your brother.” Lu Yunbai’s voice was cold.

Seeing the woman who resembled his sister, making such a sycophantic expression, made him feel sick.

“Not intentional? Hmph, do you think I would believe that? If it wasn’t intentional, why were you there in the first place?” Lu Yunbai threw a few surveillance photos onto the coffee table.

The surveillance footage clearly showed Lu Yunxiang hiding in the shadows, ready to rush out to rescue someone.

Is that what you call not intentional?

It was clearly a deliberate act, and she had foolishly tried to stage a scene to deceive Old Madam Fu and gain favor from the Fu family.

Seeing the surveillance photos, Lu Yunxiang immediately picked them up and flipped through them. Her first reaction was one of relief.

Fortunately,  the woman wasn’t caught on camera…

That day, Lu Yunxiang had intended to rush out to save Old Madam Fu, but she saw a face that looked strikingly like her foster mother’s.

That’s why she froze in place, forgetting to move.

By the time she came to her senses, Old Madam Fu had already been rescued by that woman.

Lu Yunxiang adopted a seductive pose and said sweetly, “Brother, I’m doing this for the good of the Lu family. The Lu family is currently weak, and if I can get close to President Fu, wouldn’t that help us rise to a higher level…”

A trace of sarcasm crossed Lu Yunbai’s eyes. “Fool. Do you think you’re worthy of dreaming about Fu Sichan?”

He should really show their parents what kind of foolish person they adopted.

So many socialites and elite women want to get into Fu Sichan’s bed, but what’s the outcome for them? Each ending worse than the last.

And she, just a fake princess, thinks she could catch Fu Sichan’s eye? It’s simply a delusional fantasy.

Lu Yunxiang’s face alternated between red and pale, her eyes brimming with tears. “Brother, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me just this once. After all, the Fu family doesn’t know it was me, I handled it very cleanly. Next time, I’ll be more careful…”

Smack…

A slap landed on her face.

Lu Yunxiang covered her face in disbelief, looking at Lu Yunbai, who had always been gentle and refined. This was the first time she had seen him lose his temper so violently.

Her elder brother actually hit her?

“Once wasn’t enough to harm others, and you still want a second chance? If it weren’t for the Fu family giving the Lu family face, you’d already be in prison!” Lu Yunbai, his eyes filled with hatred, scolded her. “You’re still dreaming of being Mrs. Fu? Don’t you look in the mirror and see who gave you everything you have now!”

If it weren’t for the Lu family, she’d still be begging on the street, not living the life of a young lady today.

Unexpectedly, her appetite was so big that even luxury cars and villas couldn’t satisfy her. She still wanted to climb to the Fu family’s heights.

Her ambition was truly sky-high.

How could such a foolish and vicious person be worthy of being his Lu Yunbai’s sister?

Lu Yunbai instructed his assistant, “Cancel all her cards. From now on, whenever she goes out, send someone to keep an eye on her to prevent any more trouble.”

With that, he turned and left.

Lu Yunxiang’s face burned with pain.

In front of so many servants, Lu Yunbai actually dared to hit her?

She marked this grudge in her heart.

They want to find his real sister, do they? Then she would find a way to ensure his real sister never returns.

A cold, vengeful light appeared in Lu Yunxiang’s eyes.

Mu Qianqian had been living in Mingyuan Community for several days but hadn’t seen Mr. Fu’s presence.

She asked the nanny, but the nanny didn’t know what was going on either, only offering comfort “Miss Mu, just relax and focus on your recovery. Mr. Fu must be too busy with work and hasn’t had time to come home.”

Is that so?

But why hasn’t he even called her?

A hint of disappointment rose in Mu Qianqian’s heart.

She was sitting in the living room watching TV and had fallen asleep on the sofa without realizing it.

When Fu Sichan returned, he found her sleeping on the sofa in just a thin dress, without any cover.

His face instantly darkened.

Had this woman forgotten she was still on her period? Sleeping like this in an air-conditioned room, wasn’t she afraid of getting sick?

“Get up.” He stood in front of the sofa and called out coldly.

Mu Qianqian, curled up on the sofa, seemed not to have heard.

Fu Sichan raised his voice and called out again, “Get up quickly.”

But there was still no response from the sofa.

Fu Sichan noticed her face seemed unusually flushed.

He touched her forehead with the back of his hand, it was burning hot.

This action finally woke Mu Qianqian. She moved her nose and said, “Mr. Fu, you’re back.”

“How did you know it was me?”

“I can smell your scent.” Mu Qianqian’s smile was sweet and innocent, like a child who knew little about the world.

Fu Sichan had a mature and crisp sandalwood scent, every time she smelled it, she felt at ease.

“Mr. Fu, have you been very busy lately? You haven’t had time to come home.”

Fu Sichan’s expression was somewhat uncomfortable. “Hmm.”

In fact, he had some suspicions about the Lu family’s adopted daughter and didn’t want to see her.

Fu Sichan had come today only because his grandmother insisted, and he had no choice but to come to Mingyuan Community to check on her.

He hadn’t planned to stay long; he intended to leave after just a quick visit.

Mu Qianqian, relying on him, grabbed his sleeve. Her cheeks were hot, and her voice sounded weak, “Mr. don’t work too hard. Please, take care of your health. Once I graduate from college, I’ll help you with the burden of supporting the family.”

“Hmm? Why do I have a headache?” Mu Qianqian finally realized she wasn’t feeling well.

Fu Sichan sneered, “You didn’t even realize you had a fever. You’re really a fool.”

Mu Qianqian tilted her head in confusion. “Do I have a fever?”

“Yeah. What do you expect when you sleep on the sofa without covering yourself?”

Fu Sichan brought over an air-conditioned blanket and covered her with it.

He called his assistant, “Send the family doctor to Mingyuan as soon as possible.”

Mu Qianqian’s mind was foggy, and she felt too weak to move. “Mr.…”

When people are sick, they unconsciously think of the person they rely on the most.

Fu Sichan heard her calling him over and over, her voice faint and weak like a hungry kitten.

His gaze was complex and dark.

Was this woman deeply calculating or truly innocent and kind?

“Mr. I feel so terrible…” Mu Qianqian felt as if her head was about to split open. She called him in a soft, almost tearful voice.

Fu Sichan let out a long sigh. He took an ice pack from the fridge, wrapped it in a towel, and placed it on her forehead.

Mu Qianqian’s whole body was burning up. At that moment, she felt the coolness on her brow, like a clear spring flowing in, instantly relieving her pain.

“You’ll feel better soon.”

Hearing Mr. Fu’s deep voice, her restless heart settled down immediately.
