Fu Yanci carried Fu Bao upstairs.

Fu Bao only started crying out in grievance after the door was closed.

"Dad, is Mom leaving? Can't she stay? Can't she stay with us forever? Did I do something wrong that made Mom unhappy, or does she not like me and not want to live with us...?"

Fu Bao cried so hard, and Fu Yanci felt even more heartbroken listening to her.

He put Fu Bao down, knelt on one knee to be at Fu Bao's eye level, and wiped away Fu Bao's tears.

"That's not how it works!"

Fu Yanci firmly told Fu Bao, "Dad and Mom still have some things to sort out, so Mom can't stay and live with us for the time being."

Mom has her own things to take care of right now. She'll come back once she's done.

Fu Bao sobbed, tears still clinging to her eyelashes.

"Really?

Does she really want to come back?

Fu Yanci brought over tissues and wiped Fu Bao's tears.

"Dad promises, Mom definitely likes Fu Bao. Look, she just made you something delicious!"

It's very late now. You should wash up and go to bed, okay? Daddy will take Mommy home, alright?

Although Fu Bao was still very sad, he was willing to listen to his father.

He sniffled, sobbing, "Okay, Fu Bao will be a good boy and won't make Mommy angry."

Fu Yanci tenderly patted Fu Bao's head and kissed him on the cheek.

"Our Fu Bao is the best. Daddy will take Mommy there, and Aunt Wu will take care of you."

Fu Bao nodded, "Okay, I'll go to sleep obediently. Dad, go see Mom off. It's so cold and dark outside. We can't let a girl go home alone."

When Fu Yanci arrived downstairs, Wen Qingruan was no longer in the restaurant.

He glanced at his watch; it was nearly eleven o'clock, and the cold wind outside was making the tree branches sway wildly.

Fu Yanci went to the entrance, grabbed his coat and car keys, and left home.

It was already December, and the temperature at night was already below zero. The cold wind was like a knife, as if it wanted to freeze the whole world.

Wen Qingruan pulled her coat tighter and continued walking out of the villa area.

This villa area does not allow outside vehicles to enter. If you want to take a taxi, you have to walk to the gate of the villa area, which takes about 30 to 40 minutes.

The streetlights cast a dim yellow glow. Wen Qingruan looked at her shadow at her feet, feeling empty inside.

She knew she should at least tell Fu Yanci and Fu Bao before leaving, but she didn't know how to bring it up.

How could she tell them that she was leaving to take care of Luo Luo, and how could she tell them that Luo Luo was just her younger sister?

Whether Fu Yanci misunderstands her relationship with Luo Luo or not, at least given Fu Yanci's personality, if he thinks Luo Luo is her daughter, he won't investigate Luo Luo's background anymore, won't know the truth of what happened back then, won't be implicated by her affairs, and won't shoulder those burdens for her.

He will just hate her...

This is fine.

If you don't get entangled with her, then the father and son will have a bright and promising future.

In this weather, Wen Qingruan hadn't walked far when she started breathing on her hands to keep warm because of the cold.

She glanced at the endless road ahead and quickened her pace.

A beam of cold white headlights appeared behind her, illuminating the originally dim road beneath her feet as bright as day.

Wen Qingruan didn't turn around, but moved slightly to the side of the road to let the car pass first.

But for some reason, the car kept following her at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.

Wen Qingruan glanced to the side; the road was wide enough for three cars to drive side by side.

She cursed inwardly, "You're crazy," and quickened her pace.

Unexpectedly, she walked faster, and the car behind her also sped up, but it just wouldn't overtake her.

Wen Qingruan gripped the bag strap tightly, her heart beginning to race with nervousness.

Fortunately, she remembered that the security measures in this villa area were very good, with surveillance cameras everywhere, so there was no danger.

She simply stopped and stood by the roadside.

Sure enough, the car stopped when it saw that she wasn't leaving.

The glaring lights made Wen Qingruan unable to open her eyes, and naturally, she couldn't see the people sitting in the car.

She walked towards the car and knocked on the window.

"Are you crazy?! Stalking girls at night! You think I won't call the police and have you arrested?!"

Over the past five years, Wen Qingruan and Luo Luo have struggled in the lower rungs of society, encountering all sorts of people. Naturally, she knows that when dealing with these wicked people with ill intentions, she must not show the slightest weakness.

The more assertive you are, the less likely the other party will dare to do anything to you!

Besides, she has never been one to let anyone bully her!

Wen Qingruan wanted to continue cursing and drive the person away, but when she rolled down the car window and saw the face of the person in the driver's seat, all her words got stuck in her throat.

Fu Yanci placed his hands on the steering wheel, turned his head slightly, and looked out the car window.

"Get on the bus!"

His voice was calm, revealing no emotion.

Wen Qingruan hadn't expected it to be Fu Yanci. Thinking about her own brash behavior just now, her face started to burn.

Seeing that Wen Qingruan wasn't getting into the car, Fu Yanci reached over the passenger seat and opened the door directly.

Wen Qingruan said, "No need for that. I've already called a taxi."

Fu Yanci's face showed a hint of impatience.

"I don't want tomorrow's news reports to say that the Fu family's maid was murdered late at night."

Wen Qingruan quickly waved her hand, "It's really okay, I'll be fine!"

She had already been in contact with Fu Yanci too much, and tonight, her heart was pounding wildly again and again. If she were to sit in the same car with him again, Wen Qingruan really couldn't guarantee what might happen.

Fu Yanci sat in the driver's seat, a hint of mockery in his handsome face and eyes.

"You don't actually think that a few mild insults like you just hurled will scare the bad guys away, do you?"

Wen Qingruan opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but when she met Fu Yanci's gaze, she lowered her head sheepishly and muttered softly.

"You talk as if you're some kind of saint!"

Someone in the kitchen just now lost control!

Fu Yanci was genuinely amused by the situation.

This woman used all her sharp tongue on him!

"Don't worry, I haven't reached the point where I don't discriminate between meat and vegetables."

Of course, if you need it, I can also reluctantly provide the service!

After all, you said it yourself: I'm good-looking and have decent skills; it would be a waste if you didn't enjoy it!

Wen Qingruan blushed at Fu Yanci's words. How could she forget that Fu Yanci would never let himself suffer in this regard, whether it was his body or his mouth!

She glared at Fu Yanci. "That was before! You're way past that age now!"

Even if there's a reaction, it'll probably only last two or three minutes; I can just bear with it and it'll pass! What do I have to be afraid of!

After saying that, Wen Qingruan slammed the passenger door shut.

Fu Yanci thought that this woman was determined not to ride in his car and wanted to walk out alone.

He was just about to unbuckle his seatbelt, lift her up, and shove her into the car when the back door suddenly opened.

Wen Qingruan got into the car. "Let's drive!"

Fu Yanci glanced at the rearview mirror and was so angry he laughed.

They're treating him like a driver!
