Chapter 62: Going Abroad >
bly won't be going back," she said.Lü Hánchuan frowned, "Not going back""Hmm," Fu Xiaoyao nodded.Lu Hanchuan pursed his thin lips, "Do you plan to stay outside overnight""No, I'm sleeping at Linlin's...The invitations have been sent out. The rest haven't been arranged yet. Lu Hanchuan returned to his previous position and sat down.
The old man pondered for a moment, "This time for the ancestor worship, bring Xiaoyao along too. She's been married to you for three years now, it's time she meets our Lu family ancestors and your parents."
"Good." Lu Hankan had no objections.
The old man was a little surprised that he agreed so readily.
The Lu family's ancestral worship ceremony is held once every three years. Three years ago, when Xiao Yao had just married into the Lu family, she happened to coincide with the Lu family's ancestral worship.
The result is that this child, Han Chuan, wouldn't let Xiao Yao go to participate no matter what.
Now that Han Chuan suddenly agreed, doesn't it mean he has some feelings for Xiao Yao
The old man's mood suddenly improved a lot. His face, which was still filled with grief, now had a hint of smile. "I heard Xiaoyao say that your company went on an overseas team building trip this time, and you didn't take her"
Lu Hanchuan instantly furrowed his brows, "She even told you about this"
"Yes, Xiaoyao even asked me to persuade you," the old man looked at him, "HANCHUAN, if she wants to go, just take her. What's the problem"
Lu Hanchuan looked down and said softly, "Grandpa, she's not suitable for skiing."
"Naughty!" the old man slapped the armrest of his chair, "It's not suitable for skiing, is it Shouldn't we even go at all Are those who are sick not allowed to live"
Hearing the displeasure in the old man's voice, Lu Hannan rubbed his forehead, "Grandpa, this is different. What I said wasn't suitable. It's because of her body..."
"What's wrong with her I think you just don't want to take her."
The old man wore an expression of 'I see through everything,' leaving Lu Hanchuan speechless and unsure what to say.
Fu Xiaoyao couldn't go because she had just undergone a bone marrow donation surgery and her body hadn't fully recovered. She wasn't as healthy as before and was prone to getting sick easily.
Especially in a place as cold as the snow mountains, she went to a place where if she wasn't careful, she could catch a fever or a cold. At that time, there was a high possibility of leading to unpredictable consequences.
But he couldn't tell the old man about this. If the old man knew that Fu Xiaoyao had donated bone marrow for Xiaoya, he would definitely be angry.
Thinking of this, Lu Hanchuan's thin lips tightened slightly, "I know, I'll take her there!"
He didn't even know that the woman was a little clever and knew how to instigate the old man to persuade him.
"That's right," the old man stroked his white beard and chuckled, "You two are married, you're one. Wherever you go, you should take her with you. That way, you have a better chance of having a baby sooner."
Lu Hanchuan's eyes twitched imperceptibly, "So grandpa agreed to help Xiaoyao persuade me for this reason"
The old man twitched his mustache slightly and coughed awkwardly, "Well then, this is called killing two birds with one stone."
Lu Hanchuan slanted his eyes at him, saying nothing.
Being stared at with disdain by a young man, the old man, despite having lived for so long, felt embarrassed.
He stood up from his seat, trembling with the aid of his cane, “It’s getting late, I should be heading back to the old house.”
"It's so late, Old Master. Don't bother yourself anymore, just stay here." Lu Hanchuan said indifferently.
"That'll work," the old man seemed to have been waiting for this very sentence. As soon as he heard him say that, he immediately agreed.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Lu Hanchuan's face darkened, he felt like he had fallen for his grandfather's trick again.
Even so, he still had to arrange a room for the old man.
After seeing the old man settled to sleep, Lu Hanchuan returned to his master bedroom.
Fu Xiaoyao was sitting on the bed watching TV. When she saw him come back, she immediately turned off the TV and got off the bed to help him take off his coat.
"Hánchuān, is grandpa asleep" Fù Xiǎoyáo asked softly.
Lu Hanchuan hummed, "Next month it's the Lu family ancestral rites, you should come too."
Fu Xiaoyao's action of hanging up her coat suddenly stopped. She stared at him in astonishment, "Me too"
Yes!
Fu Xiaoyao held back her excitement, and asked in disbelief, "Can I really go"
She had heard from Aunt Song that the Lu family held a ceremony to honor their ancestors once every three years, and only those whose names were recorded in the Lu family genealogy attended.
Although she married into the Lu family, she hadn't been officially registered in their ancestral records and hadn't received the recognition of the Lu family ancestors. She couldn't be considered a fully accepted member of the Lu family.
This has always been her regret, only because he refused to take her there three years ago. But now that he's willing, can she consider it an acknowledgment that she is his wife
"You don't believe you can also not go." Lü Hanchuan loosened his tie and replied with a nonchalant air.
"I'm going, I'm going!" Fu Xiaoyao clasped her hands tightly together, her face brimming with excitement.
That's an ancestral worship ceremony, how could she possibly miss it!
Looking at Fu Xiaoyao's beaming smile, Lu Hanchuan's eyes darkened slightly, and he even felt a touch of joy in his heart.
But soon, he suppressed this feeling.
"Fu Xiaoyao, did you tell grandpa that I should take you abroad" Lu Hanchuan unbuttoned a few of his shirt buttons and looked at the woman who was still happily there with cold eyes.
The woman's body stiffened immediately upon hearing his words, her eyes darting around nervously. "I, I..."
"Alright, Grandpa told me it was you who persuaded me." Lu Hanchuan waved his hand to cut her off.
Fu Xiaoyao stuck out her tongue, "Sorry, Hankan, I really wanted to go, so..."
"This is it." Lu Hanchuan walked to the tea table and poured himself a glass of red wine that he hadn't finished last time.
Fu Xiaoyao looked at him for a while, uncertainly asked: "Hanchuan, are you angry"
"If I were angry, I wouldn't be speaking to you so calmly." Lu Hanchuan sipped his red wine, not even glancing at her.
Fu Xiaoyao let out a breath and smiled, "It's good that you're not angry. Don't worry, I won't do it again next time."
To make sure he believed her, she even raised three fingers and swore an oath.
Her serious expression, falling into Lu Hanchuan's eyes, felt a little cute and silly.
Lu Hanchuan couldn't help but smirk, "You prepare the documents and give them to Qiao Mu tomorrow. He'll handle your visa for you."
"A visa" Fu Xiaoyao's lips trembled, "Hanchuan, you promised to take me"
"Grandpa spoke, could I not take you" Lu Hanchuan gave her a sideways glance.
Fu Xiaoyao giggled, "Hanchuan, thank you."
"You should thank Grandpa."
"Mmm, I know. I'll thank grandpa tomorrow."
Lu Hanchuan didn't respond to her. He finished the drink in his cup, got up, and went to the bathroom.
The next day.
When Fu Xiaoyao got up, Lu Hanchuan was gone again.
When she went downstairs to ask him, she found out that he had sent her grandfather back to the old house early in the morning.
"Aunt Song, why didn't you call me I didn't get up to send Grandpa off, Grandpa must be unhappy." Fu Xiaoyao pouted and complained.
She received two pieces of good news back to back last night, which made her too excited and she didn't fall asleep until very late.
As a result, even the elderly wake up before her.
The old man certainly thinks she's a lazy daughter-in-law.
Seeing Fu Xiaoyao's anxiety, Song Yi covered her lips and smiled, "Madam, don't worry too much. It's not that I didn't call you, it's the master who wouldn't let me. The master said to let you sleep a while longer and not send him off."
"Is that so" Fu Xiaoyao blinked in surprise.
"Of course, alright madam, come have breakfast." Aunt Song patted her shoulder.
Fu Xiaoyao nodded and followed closely behind her to the restaurant.
After breakfast, Fu Xiaoyao came to the company. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she bumped into Qiao Mu who was coming out of another secretary's office.
Her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly called out to him, "Joe assistant, wait a moment."sed his magnetic card.He carried Fu Xiaoyao into the apartment and didn't even change his shoes. He walked straight to the bedroom.He didn't know which of the two bedrooms was hers, so he went towards...
