"Only if we entrust Secretary Sun's brain tumor surgery to you, a top professor in neurosurgery, can the old man feel at ease."
Lu Xiao had just stepped out of the operating room when he was caught red-handed by his uncle.
A six-hour surgery is enough to exhaust anyone, but Lu Xiao can still straighten his back and perform three more surgeries in a row without any problem.
Beneath the loose surgical gown, the muscles appeared firm and defined.
The bulging veins on the back of the hand seem to contain boundless power.
But his eyes were utterly indifferent, revealing a sense of world-weariness and weariness.
"I need to rest."
The implication of expelling the guest is obvious.
A medical fanatic like him seems to have no interest in anything other than surgery and research.
He took off his surgical gown and had just changed into a black shirt when his uncle grabbed his arm.
"Ah Xiao, today's blind date is Director Xu's youngest daughter. It was personally arranged by the old man. You must attend and don't refuse him!"
Thanks to the Lu family's secretive background, Lu Xiao has already met all the daughters of the Yancheng leadership team in the six months since returning to China.
"No matter how many times, the result is always the same."
Lu Xiao's voice was indifferent.
He will never get married, and he will never be tied to a strange woman for life.
...
Xu Tangtang's fingers glided over the haute couture clothes in the dressing room.
Suddenly, her foot slipped, and she grabbed the dress beside her to keep her balance.
She was truly reborn.
She was reborn before her blind date with Lu Xiao.
In her past life, Xu Tangtang was forced by her father to go on a blind date with Lu Xiao.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao fell in love with her at first sight.
The Lu family wielded considerable influence in Yancheng, and her father, driven by ambition, finalized her marriage to Lu Xiao overnight.
The two got married the day after their blind date.
Lu Xiao knew that Xu Tangtang had a boyfriend, and he also knew that her boyfriend's sister urgently needed brain surgery.
He despicably used the opportunity of surgery to threaten his boyfriend into breaking up with Xu Tangtang, promising not to bother her anymore.
Xu Tangtang doesn't blame her boyfriend; she blames the morbidly insane Lu Xiao.
He was extremely controlling, and the housekeeper would report her schedule to Lu Xiao in real time.
Knowing that she has male friends, Lu Xiao will lock her at home.
She was never allowed to leave the house, and it escalated to the point where she couldn't even see the servants.
In her eyes and in her heart, there can only be him.
He forcibly invaded her life, forcing her to become the person he wanted her to be.
Both their behavior and thoughts will bear the deep imprint of Lu Xiao.
Xu Tangtang was used to freedom, and she couldn't stand this suffocating and clingy control 24 hours a day, nor could she stand being taken care of by Lu Xiao like a caged canary.
She had considered escaping, but in front of Lu Xiao, Xu Tangtang's plans seemed weak and powerless.
On their third wedding anniversary, Xu Tangtang deliberately got Lu Xiao drunk and managed to escape from the villa.
But then he heard the news that his father had been dismissed from his post.
It must be Lu Xiao who plotted to punish her father because she ran away!
She tried to save her father, but was hit and killed by a car that suddenly appeared.
Just as she was about to lose consciousness, Xu Tangtang heard a cold, mechanical voice.
The system gave her a chance to be reborn, allowing her to choose her future again.
Xu Tangtang held back her tears.
This time, she absolutely, positively will not get entangled with Lu Xiao.
"Miss, are you alright?"
Xu Tangtang looked at Fu Yu, who had a worried expression, and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Fu Yu was her personal assistant, or, to put it nicely, her daily life and work.
Essentially, she was her nanny.
After breaking up with Xu Tangtang, Jiang Baiyan, Xu Tangtang's boyfriend, was heartbroken and kept Fu Yu, who had spent every day with Xu Tangtang, by his side.
He was used as Xu Tangtang's stand-in.
At that time, Jiang Baiyan was just an ordinary actor. Who would have thought that in just 5 years, he would become a film emperor and win all kinds of awards at home and abroad.
To thank Fu Yu for her companionship, Jiang Baiyan publicly acknowledged her identity in front of the media.
Fu Yu went from an ordinary person to the woman of a movie star overnight.
Leveraging Jiang Baiyan's influence, she created an online celebrity brand and married Jiang Baiyan at the peak of her career.
All of this originally belonged to Xu Tangtang!
Xu Tangtang coldly shook off Fu Yu's hand.
She didn't know if Fu Yu had long coveted Jiang Baiyan and was waiting for an opportunity to take his place.
Upon closer inspection, Fu Yu's makeup and clothing style are very similar to Xu Tangtang's.
She just couldn't afford haute couture, and the cheap clothes she bought from street vendors were made of particularly poor quality.
Like a clumsy imitator.
This time, she wouldn't give Fu Yu a chance to take advantage of the situation.
But... my father's bodyguards are outside.
If she didn't go on the blind date, given her father's temper, he would definitely break Xu Tangtang's legs.
what to do?
Xu Tangtang looked at Fu Yu, and an unbelievable idea suddenly flashed through her mind.
She had Fu Yu impersonate her to fool her father's bodyguards, and then sabotage the blind date.
This way, Xu Tangtang wouldn't have to meet with Lu Xiao, and it would also prevent Fu Yu from secretly going to Jiang Baiyan while she was away.
Killing two birds with one stone.
Thinking this, Xu Tangtang took out a check for 100,000 yuan and gave it to Fu Yu, "Go see Lu Xiao in my place and tell him that it's impossible for us to be together."
Seeing Fu Yu remain silent, Xu Tangtang immediately pushed her the stylish outfit she was about to throw away.
"I'll give you another 100,000 after it's done."
Fu Yu pursed her lips, and after a long while, she revealed a smile.
"Yes, miss."
When Xu Tangtang heard Fu Yu agree, she raised her lips triumphantly, completely unaware of the glint in Fu Yu's eyes.
"System loading complete. Welcome to the third world. The male protagonist in this world presents a high level of difficulty; please proceed with caution."
Fu Yu browsed through the information on the male protagonist, Lu Xiao, in her sea of consciousness.
It doesn't look particularly special.
The system lit a cyber cigarette.
"You'll know when you see him, host."
While pondering, Xu Tangtang did Fu Yu's makeup in her usual style.
Wearing a hat and a skirt suit, from behind, she really does look a bit like Xu Tangtang.
Looking at Fu Yu in the mirror, Xu Tangtang thought to herself that Fu Yu had none of her innate noble air and top-notch bone structure.
They could only cover their faces with masks and sunglasses to prevent others from noticing anything amiss.
After Fu Yu followed the bodyguard to the blind date location, Xu Tangtang changed into Fu Yu's clothes, slipped out through the back door, and went to find Jiang Baiyan.
As she got into the car, Xu Tangtang's right eyelid twitched.
Could Fu Yu be using this opportunity to curry favor with Lu Xiao and rise to power?
impossible.
Xu Tangtang immediately rejected her idea.
Putting aside the fact that Lu Xiao is attracted to looks, after going on so many blind dates, only she, who was crowned the campus belle of Yanda University, barely caught his eye. Even considering the status of the Lu family, they could not allow Fu Yu to marry Lu Xiao.
If Fu Yu truly harbors delusions, she will suffer the same fate as those women in her previous life who tried to seduce Lu Xiao—a truly miserable end.
To be honest, Xu Tangtang was quite looking forward to seeing Fu Yu's cunning scheme backfire and cost her her life.
It's because she always fantasizes about men she doesn't deserve.
They deserve to be punished.
