eave request on the coffee table in the living room that Fu Xiaoyao remembered that Song Yi had gone home."Goodness, I'm so busy!" She muttered, running a hand through her hair, then rolled up her sle..."I don't know about that," the neighbor shook his head, "I heard they moved abroad, who knows for sure."

After saying that, the neighbor closed the door, leaving Fu Xiaoyao alone outside, staring blankly.

Moving abroad

She absolutely didn't believe the Yu family had this ability.

Moreover, she had only just met Yu Lin today.

Thinking of Yu Lin, Fu Xiaoyao felt a tightness and unease in her heart, as if something big was about to happen. It was suffocating.

She took out her phone and dialed Yulin's number again.

Unfortunately, Yulin's phone is still switched off.

Fu Xiaoyao anxiously rubbed her hair, put down her phone, and glanced at the tightly shut door of Yu Jia. She murmured, "Linlin, where did you go"

"Madam," Liu Shu's voice suddenly came from the stairwell.

Fu Xiaoyao lowered her head and looked down, "What is it, Uncle Liu"

"Mr. [Name] called, asking when you'll be back." Uncle Liu replied.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Fu Xiaoyao was stunned. "When did this happen"

"Just now."

"Go back right away." Fu Xiaoyao replied.

Liu Shu replied from the stairs, "Okay, I'll go get the car."

Fu Xiaoyao hummed in response, then flipped over her phone to look. Seeing no missed calls or messages from Lu Hanchuan, a tinge of disappointment crept into her heart.

He wanted to ask her when she was coming back and why she didn't just call him directly instead of asking Uncle Liu.

That's really strange!

Puzzled, Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips and didn't think much of it. She put her phone in her bag and slowly walked down the stairs, leaning on the railing.

An hour later, the villa arrived.

Aunt Song came out and quickly went to Fu Xiaoyao's side. As a result, she held the thermos in her hand, "Madam, where did you go Why have you been back for so long"

"I went to the hospital. What's wrong" Fu Xiaoyao looked at Aunt Song curiously, not understanding why she was so anxious.

"You're still asking me how I am, sir is looking for you, he seems very angry." Auntie Song reminded her.

Fu Xiaoyao's heart sank. "Angry Who is he angry with"

“Who else could it be, of course it's you, Madam. As soon as he came back, he asked where you had gone. His face and tone scared me to death. I’ve never seen Mr. so frightening before, Madam, you must be careful.” said Aunt Song.

Upon hearing this, Fu Xiaoyao also began to feel uneasy inside. "He...why is he angry with me"

"I'm afraid I don't know. I tried to ask Mr.

something, but he didn't say a word. So Madam, there's nothing I can do to help." Song Yi looked at her helplessly.

Fu Xiaoyao reluctantly twitched the corner of her mouth, "It's nothing, I'll go take a look."

Saying that, she raised her foot and stepped into the villa.

As soon as she stepped into the living room, she sensed that something was off. The atmosphere was heavy and oppressive, making her feel uneasy for no reason.

Lu Hanchuan was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with his back to Fu Xiaoyao.

Fu Xiaoyao couldn't see his expression at this moment, but from the coldness emanating from him, she also knew that he was in a state of extreme anger.

She didn't know what she did to make him so angry, and it had been a long time since she had seen him this upset with her.

For a moment, Fu Xiaoyao didn't know how to react. The nervousness in her heart made her hesitate and dare not step forward. She could only stop a few steps behind Lu Hanchuan, softly saying, "Hanchuan, I'm back."

Lu Hanchuan heard her voice and stood up from the sofa. He slowly turned around and walked towards Fu Xiaoyao step by step.

The resounding footsteps seemed to land on Fu Xiaoyao's heart. She looked at his frost-covered face and instinctively took two steps back, her heart inexplicably tightening, "Hanchuan, you..."

Bang!

The crisp sound of slaps echoed throughout the living room.

Fu Xiaoyao covered her face and fell to the ground, her whole body stunned, her mind blank.

Later, when Song Auntie arrived, she was also shocked by the scene. After a long silence, she finally recovered and hurried to Fu Xiaoyao's side, helping her up. "Ma'am, are you alright"

Fu Xiaoyao didn't answer, she just looked at Lu Hanchuan in disbelief.

He... he actually hit her

He had never hit her before, not even during those three years of estrangement, but now he...

Fu Xiaoyao's body trembled violently, she was unwilling to believe this fact, but the burning pain on her face told her that this was the truth.

Lu Hanchuan really slapped her.

"Why" Fu Xiaoyao's eyes were red, she looked at Lu Hanchuan with hurt.

Aunt Song was also like that, “Yes, sir, why would you hit someone when you’re perfectly fine”

"Why" Lu Hanchuan returned to the sofa and bent down to pick up a report from the coffee table. "Fu Xiaoyao, you have such guts, daring to poison grandpa!"

"Poisoned" Auntie Song was taken aback, and immediately looked at Fu Xiaoyao, "Madam you..."

"What poison"" Fu Xiaoyao loosened her face, her eyes filled with anger and a hint of bewilderment as she roared at Lu Hanzchuan, "What are you talking about When did I poison grandpa"

"Don't you have anything to say" Lu Hanchuan sneered, throwing the report in her face. "After you left the sanatorium, grandpa suddenly started vomiting uncontrollably and even fainted. The hospital found a high concentration of sodium nitrite in his undigested pork soup. What do you have to explain"

"Sodium nitrite" Fu Xiaoyao was stunned, hurriedly picking up the report on the ground and quickly reading it. Sure enough, as he said, there were traces of sodium nitrite in the pig's feet soup.

Sodium nitrite, a chemical compound harmful to the human body.

Small amounts ingested will cause symptoms such as vomiting and dizziness, but if a large amount is ingested and medical attention is not sought promptly, it can lead to organ hypoxia and death.

And this report on the surface is the ingestion of high levels of sodium nitrite, which means if the old man didn't seek medical attention in time, now he might...

I can't think about it anymore. Fu Xiaoyao suddenly clenched the report in her hand, her face pale as she explained, "This is impossible. I would never drug my grandfather, and besides, I don't even have sodium nitrite. And the pork trotters soup was made by Aunt Song."

"That's right, I made the soup myself. I would never put these things in the old master's food. Sir, could there be a misunderstanding here" Aunt Song also said.

Lu Hanchuan clenched his fists tightly, "Misunderstanding You're telling me it's a misunderstanding Sodium nitrite was in the pork bone soup, the pork bone soup was sent by Fu Xiaoyao, and it passed through my hands on the way. Do you think I would poison grandpa"

But I wouldn't either." Fu Xiaoyao's eyes were filled with tears as she spoke emotionally.

Lu Hanchuan growled, “Then tell me, if it wasn't you, would the sodium nitrite just run into the pork bone soup on its own”

"I don't know!" Fu Xiaoyao shook her head violently. "I really don't know what's going on. I swear, I've never done anything like this. Grandfather was so good to me, why would I hurt him What benefit would I get from doing this"

"Yes, sir, I don't believe Mrs. Fu would do such a thing either." Aunt Song stood by Xiao Yao's side.

Fu Xiaoyao looked at her with emotion, "Aunt Song, thank you for believing in me."

Aunt Song shook her head. "You don't need to thank me, but I truly believe you wouldn't do such a thing."

Fu Xiaoyao strained a smile, feeling a mix of joy and sadness in her heart.

The pleasing thing is that some people still believe in her innocence.

What's sad is that Lu Hanchuan, as her husband, refuses to believe her.

"Han Chuan, whether you believe me or not, I really didn't do anything to hurt Grandpa. I don't know why that thing was in the pork bone soup, but I can go to the police right away. But before that, I want to know how Grandpa is doing now" Fu Xiaoyao looked at Lu Hanchuan nervously, her eyes full of worry about her grandfather.ow surprised you are, you have to remember one thing: the Lu family hasn't divorced!" Lu Hanchuan warned."I haven't heard of this before," Fu Xiaoyao said in surprise.Lu Hanzhan's eyes flickered. "The...
