Chapter 1337 The truth about the car accident
A hint of barely perceptible anger gradually gathered in Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes, "Fu Yanchen, you...you...you...smoking in my bedroom again?"
Upon hearing this, the smile on Fu Yanchen's face seemed a little stiff. His smile was like a flower that had been attacked by the cold winter wind. Although it was still trying to bloom, it could not hide the embarrassment and apology in it.
He hurriedly pinched out the cigarette in his hand with his fingertips. The spark drew a short and dim track and finally fell silent.
"Xiaoxiao..." There was a hint of hesitation in his words, and his tone was full of uneasiness about the upcoming blame, "Um... Yi Feng called me just now, and I couldn't help it, so..."
Xu Xiaoxiao frowned when she heard this. Her bright eyes flashed with dissatisfaction and anger. "Fu Yanchen has said this several times,"
There was a hint of blame in her words, revealing her dissatisfaction and concern for Fu Yanchen's living habits. "Go to the balcony to smoke, don't pollute my bedroom. I cooked noodles for you with good intentions, but you smoke in my room. It's really outrageous."
Fu Yanchen looked at Xu Xiaoxiao's face which was slightly sullen due to anger, but he did not feel the slightest bit of anger in his heart. Instead, he felt as if he was gently surrounded by a warm current.
He noticed the tenderness and care in Xu Xiaoxiao's tone when she mentioned that she had cooked noodles for him, and he couldn't help but feel an indescribable joy and emotion in his heart.
"I get up, wash, and eat noodles."
There was a hint of childlike excitement and anticipation in his voice, as if all the unhappiness just now had been melted away by this warm current.
Before she finished her words, Xu Xiaoxiao felt a breeze blowing by her side, causing a few strands of hair on her forehead to dance gently.
Fu Yanchen rushed to the bathroom like an arrow from a bow. His hurried footsteps echoed in the empty bedroom, like the thunder before a summer rainstorm, foreshadowing the coming peace and harmony.
Xu Xiaoxiao stood there, looking at Fu Yanchen's departing back...
Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Fu Yanchen's slightly hurried back, and a ripple appeared in her heart.
She shook her head slightly, with a complex smile on her lips, thinking to herself: How could Fu Yanchen be so immature now? He was like a child, and could be so happy over a small matter that he forgot everything else. Although this innocence and straightforwardness made her feel a little helpless, it also gave her a hint of warmth in her heart.
If Fu Yanchen had been a little more humane in the past, would they have gone through all these hardships?
Fu Yanchen walked into the bathroom and closed the door gently, blocking out the noise from the outside world. His expression turned gloomy.
He picked up the phone, slid his fingertips quickly across the screen, and finally dialed Lin Nuo's number.
On the other end of the phone, Lin Nuo's voice was steady and powerful, as if it could penetrate all the fog.
"Lin Nuo, I need you to help me check something."
"Mr. Fu, give your orders."
Fu Yanchen's voice was low and firm, with unquestionable authority, "Nan Weiwei's car accident, check whether Jiang Ling deliberately arranged it."
When Lin Nuo heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across his tone, but he quickly regained his composure. He knew Fu Yanchen's temper and decisiveness very well, so he stopped asking questions and simply replied, "Okay, I'll check it out right away."
After hanging up the phone, Fu Yanchen took a deep breath of fresh air, as if he wanted to expel all his troubles and worries with this breath.
He walked to the sink, turned on the faucet, and let the cold water wash over his hands and the heat in his heart.
After washing up, Fu Yanchen walked out of the bathroom, exuding a faint scent of shower gel.
He walked to the dining table and sat down, quietly waiting for the noodles that Xu Xiaoxiao would cook for him. The anticipation and satisfaction were like a child waiting for the delicious meal prepared by his mother.
Xu Xiaoxiao was standing in the kitchen at this moment, holding chopsticks in her hand, gently stirring the noodles in the pot, her eyes revealing tenderness and care for Fu Yanchen.
No matter how strong and decisive Fu Yanchen is outside now, when he returns home, he is like a big boy who needs care and attention.
She brought the cooked noodles to the dining table and said softly, "The noodles are ready, eat them quickly. Don't smoke in the bedroom in the future. Besides, you should smoke as little as possible!"
When Fu Yanchen heard Xu Xiaoxiao's words, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile, with a hint of playfulness and tenderness in his eyes, as if the warm sunshine in spring, gently falling on her shoulders.
"Xiaoxiao, are you concerned about me?"
His voice was low and magnetic, with a barely perceptible tremor, and it seemed that even the air was filled with a faint warmth.
Xu Xiaoxiao's cheeks unconsciously turned red when she heard this. She lowered her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, like a butterfly flapping its wings to fly, with a hint of shyness.
"Don't get me wrong, I...I just don't want my child to be without a father so early in the future."
Xu Xiaoxiao's words were filled with a hint of anger, and then she raised her head again, her eyes full of seriousness, "Besides, I don't understand what's so good about smoking tobacco? Every time I get close to you, I can smell a pungent odor that gives me a headache."
Seeing this, Fu Yanchen felt a warm feeling in his heart. He nodded slowly, his eyes flashing with determination and doting.
"Okay, I'll listen to Xiaoxiao and... I won't smoke anymore."
His promise was simple and powerful, and every word seemed to come from the bottom of his heart with unshakable determination.
After saying that, he smiled softly, his eyes fell on the dishes on the table again, as if he was still not satisfied, "That noodles...any more? I feel like I'm not satisfied yet, Xiaoxiao's cooking skills are getting better and better."
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao curled up the corners of her mouth into a faint smile, with a hint of mockery and helplessness in her eyes.
"You...you didn't have such a big appetite before, just a little bit was enough, but now...here's the only portion for me, if you don't mind, take it, I'm full."
As she spoke, she gently pushed the bowl in front of her. The noodles in the bowl were still emitting wisps of hot steam, blending in with the warm atmosphere around her.
The sunlight outside the window was just right, shining into the house through the gauze curtains, adding a bit of warmth and romance to this ordinary scene.
The air was filled with the aroma of food, intertwined with the warmth flowing between the two, forming a moving picture.
After the two of them finished packing, Fu Yanchen insisted on sending Xu Xiaoxiao to her coffee shop before he was willing to return to his hotel with peace of mind.
He personally watched her enter the coffee shop, and only went back to his hotel when Xu Xiaoxiao's figure gradually disappeared. His attentiveness and thoughtfulness made Xu Xiaoxiao feel warm in her heart.
As soon as he arrived at the hotel and Fu Yanchen stepped into the room, his cell phone rang rapidly, and Lin Nuo's name flashed on the screen.
He pressed the answer button, his tone steady and calm. "How is it?"
He asked briefly, but his eyes were focused on the bustling city outside the window, as if he was thinking about something.
Lin Nuo on the other end of the phone spoke with a hint of urgency and concentration in his voice: "Mr. Fu, according to the current investigation, the matter is far more complicated than we imagined. The driver seems to have a very deep background and is extremely secretive. It took us a long time to track down some clues."
Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen frowned slightly and his expression became more solemn.
He slowly walked to the window, put his hands behind his back, and looked into the distance with deep eyes, as if weighing the importance of every word.
"Keep investigating. No matter who the other party is, you must find out clearly for me. Remember, what we want is not just superficial clues, but key evidence that can hit the target in one fell swoop." He will not let anyone let you hurt Xu Xiaoxiao.
Lin Nuo responded on the other end of the phone, his tone more firm and confident.
"Yes, Mr. Fu, I will continue to follow up. However, you and your wife should also pay attention to your safety. Since the other party can hide so deeply, I am afraid it will not be easy for us to find their weaknesses. And from the current situation, Ms. Jiang Ling does not seem to have any open contact with them. Privately, we can't find out yet."
Fu Yanchen nodded slightly. Although Lin Nuo couldn't see it, his tone revealed his concern and trust for his subordinates.
"Don't worry, I'll be careful. You should also be careful not to alert the enemy."
After saying that, he gently hung up the phone and turned back to the table.
