Chapter 38 First meeting the heroine
"What are you talking about?" Shao Leyan swallowed his saliva and clenched his fingers subconsciously. "I would never push your brother away, but I would push you away. This is the difference between you two."
"You pushed me away because..."
Fu Xingyan was in a hurry to explain, but an inappropriate male voice came from behind him, breaking the ambiguous and exciting atmosphere between the two people.
"Le Yan, the city lord is looking for you!"
As soon as Le An hurriedly ran up to the top floor, he saw Fu Xingyan pulling Shao Leyan. The two of them were pulling each other and no one knew what they were doing. It didn't look like they were doing anything serious.
He raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his temples with his sleeve, suppressing the urge to breathe heavily.
God knows if Lin Ying hadn't tipped him off in advance, he would have rushed over without stopping. If Fu Xingchen had discovered that his wife and his brother were having an affair first, neither of them would have ended up well.
His plan for Shao Leyan was to have a perfect and happy family life, to be loved and have a smooth life, and he must not give up all his previous efforts.
Shao Leyan heard the warning and reminder in Le'an's words, and pushed Fu Xingyan away with great strength. Even though the latter staggered after being pushed by her, she still ran towards Le'an without looking back.
"Brother, let's go back quickly and don't keep Xingchen waiting anxiously."
Le An nodded, glanced at Fu Xingyan's stiff back, and deliberately said loudly: "Thank you, Director Fu, for helping me find Le Yan. It's getting late, you should go back and rest!"
After saying that, Le An didn't care whether Fu Xingyan understood what he meant. He held Shao Leyan's hand, fearing that Fu Xingchen would become even angrier, and trotted back to report.
When Shao Leyan walked into the room cautiously, Fu Xingchen had been waiting for a long time.
The tall, steady and mature man paced back and forth anxiously by the window like a child waiting for his parents to pick him up at the kindergarten gate.
The white teeth licked and bit the lower lip as if eating jelly, and the slender fingers were entangled with each other with such strength that the knuckles turned white.
His whole body was filled with a strange feeling of anxiety and tension, trembling with stress.
Shao Leyan's eyes were a little moist. He endured the sour and itchy feeling rising from the tip of his nose and said in a sobbing voice, "Xingchen, I'm back."
Fu Xingchen stopped striding with his long legs, and turned his body towards Shao Leyan first.
The tightly furrowed brows relaxed instantly as if by magic, and the man who had been gloomy just now seemed to have ushered in a second spring in his life, his whole body exuding new energy and vitality.
Shao Leyan had only taken a few steps when she was wrapped in a warm embrace. The iron-like arms tightly grasped her waist, fearing that the person in his arms would leave him again in the next second.
Fu Xingchen buried his whole face in Shao Leyan's shoulder. The scent on her body seemed to have a calming effect. Just a light breath could calm his complicated emotions.
It seemed as if the sea, which had been raging with stormy waves not long ago, had instantly returned to a calm and harmonious scene.
However, he still did not forget to hold accountable the culprit who caused his panic.
"Where have you been?"
Shao Leyan's heart skipped a beat, and the feeling of being touched just now disappeared.
"Oh, I was planning to look for you, but I suddenly had a stomachache, so I went to the bathroom. When I rushed to the top floor, you were no longer there."
As soon as Shao Leyan finished speaking, the arm around his waist stiffened for a moment, and then he hugged him tighter.
But Fu Xingchen's tone was obviously lower and colder.
"Really? Did you meet Xing Yan?"
Shao Leyan didn't dare to move, like a little hamster curled up in Fu Xingchen's arms, afraid that any action he made would anger the big Buddha.
"He and my brother came to find me, and that's when I realized you had gone back."
"Oh, I see."
Fu Xingchen straightened up and gently stroked Shao Leyan's cheek with his right hand. His pair of dark eyes fixed Shao Leyan's gaze, preventing her from breaking free.
"I trust you."
Shao Leyan couldn't guess whether Fu Xingchen was telling the truth or a lie, but since he had expressed his opinion, the matter was completely over.
But on the day of setting off for the central city, Shao Leyan saw Fu Xingyan and his colleagues counting the experimental products and supplies they were carrying, and he subconsciously took a few more glances at him.
After Fu Xingchen explained everything to his secretary, he wanted to pull Shao Leyan into the car, but he failed after one try. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Shao Leyan.
Coincidentally, Le An was walking towards him, and Shao Leyan's gaze, which was about to avoid him, shifted to Le An again.
"The headcount has been counted, City Lord, you can set off without worry."
Fu Xingchen smiled lightly and nodded, patting the back of Shao Leyan's hand. "Let's go!"
"good."
Along the way, Shao Leyan didn't dare to have any contact or communication with Fu Xingyan. Even when she took a break, she completely avoided any chance of making eye contact with Fu Xingyan.
However, Fu Xingchen was inseparable from her, and Fu Xingyan was also very sensible and did not seek trouble for himself.
But Shao Leyan couldn't understand why Fu Xingyan would go with him?
The two brothers had such a big fight, but they acted as if nothing had happened the next day. If she hadn't overheard the whole thing, she would have really thought that they were always friendly and respectful to each other.
"Are you tired? The use of supernatural powers is prohibited in Central City, so I can't teleport there. I'm sorry to trouble you."
Shao Leyan came back to his senses from his thoughts and smiled brightly at Fu Xingchen.
"I'm not tired, are you tired?"
Fu Xingchen smiled and shook his head. "I'm not tired. Let me sleep a little longer. We should be busy for a while when we get to Central City."
"good."
Shao Leyan was bored to death anyway, all he did was sleep and eat, so he didn't mind sleeping a little longer.
By the time we arrived in the central city, it was already time for dinner.
The sun hadn't set yet, but the central city gate was bustling with activity.
City Lord Mu Sheng stood in front of the welcoming crowd, with his eldest son Mu Jinsheng and beloved daughter Mu Jiaojiao standing behind him.
This was the first time Shao Leyan met Mu Jiaojiao.
As the heroine of this sweet pet novel, Mu Jiaojiao has unique attributes. She has the talent of being loved by everyone and making flowers bloom wherever she goes. Even Shao Leyan, who met her for the first time, noticed her in the crowd at first sight and developed a liking for her.
But looking at Mu Jiaojiao, her complexion was not good, and the corners of her eyes were even red. She looked like she had cried in grievance, which was really adorable.
Shao Leyan could guess why this little princess who had everything going her way was like this, but she just pursed her lips.
Since the two lovers were unable to be together due to various reasons, she would not be considered to have destroyed other people's relationship.
After figuring it out, Shao Leyan breathed a sigh of relief and took Fu Xingchen's hand.
They felt more confident and turned their gaze to Mu Sheng, who was smiling kindly at them in the middle of the crowd.
Seeing the face that had tortured her so much in her dreams at midnight appear in front of her again, the feeling of despair, suffocation, helplessness, fragility and fear was about to swallow Shao Leyan up.
