Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

Chapter 912 Can’t do it

After three long days of waiting, Xu Xiaoxiao's doubts were finally answered.

That day, Fu Yanchen returned unexpectedly early and entered the house at noon.

This sudden change caught Xu Xiaoxiao off guard. Holding the child in her arms, her hands trembled slightly, and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness surged in her heart, as if she had a premonition of some changes that were about to happen.

"Isn't the company busy today?"

Xu Xiaoxiao tried her best to stay calm and asked softly, trying to find a clue from Fu Yanchuan's expression. Fu Yanchen was a workaholic and would not leave work early.

Fu Yanchen smiled, his eyes revealing tenderness and care. He slowly walked towards Xu Xiaoxiao and replied softly, "I'm not busy. No matter how busy I am, with Ah Su and Lin Nuo here, I can still come back and spend time with you and the child. Ah Su can already take care of himself, so I don't have to worry about him."

His voice was warm and firm, trying to dispel the haze in Xu Xiaoxiao's heart.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao's uneasiness did not dissipate. She keenly realized that Fu Yanchen's early return might not just be for companionship, but there might be deeper reasons behind it.

She stared at Fu Yanchen's eyes, trying to read more information from them, but Fu Yanchuan's smile was still as warm as before, as if everything was normal and there was nothing unusual.

Xu Xiaoxiao sighed secretly and decided to put aside her doubts for the time being and not ask any more questions.

"The child is asleep." Fu Yanchen's eyes fell gently on the little life in the cradle, and a warm current surged in his heart. The tender face and quiet sleeping posture made him feel extremely happy and satisfied.

"Well, he eats and then goes to sleep, just like a little pig." Aunt Wu took over the conversation with a smile. She reached out to take the child and carry him back to the nursery.

However, Fu Yanchen raised his hand slightly to stop Wu Ma's action.

"Auntie Wu, let me hold them. I want to spend some time with them today."

Fu Yanchen's voice was full of tenderness and determination. He hoped that he could be more involved in the growth of his children and give them more companionship and care.

When Aunt Wu heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, but then it turned into understanding and relief.

She knew that Fu Yanchen had always been a busy man, but today he was willing to put down his current affairs and come back to accompany his family, which was enough to show that he cared about this family and this child.

"Okay, then I'll go prepare some afternoon tea. You guys enjoy this rare parent-child time." Aunt Wu smiled and nodded, then turned and left the room.

Fu Yanchen gently picked up the child, feeling the warm weight, his heart was filled with happiness and satisfaction.

He looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, with a gentle light in his eyes, as if saying: I will always be here, accompanying you and your child, witnessing your child's growth together, and protecting the happiness of this family.

Aunt Wu was indeed quick and in a short while, afternoon tea was ready.

Fu Yanchen held the child and strolled in the garden with Xu Xiaoxiao, enjoying this rare quiet time.

His gaze always stayed on Xu Xiaoxiao. His gentle and deep eyes seemed to engrave every subtle expression of hers in his heart.

Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help feeling a little shy when he looked at her so intently.

She turned her head slightly, trying to avoid Fu Yanchen's fiery gaze, but an inexplicable warmth surged in her heart. She asked softly, "Um, Fu Yanchen, are you hiding something from me?"

There was a hint of doubt in his words, but more of it was trust and expectation for Fu Yanchen.

Hearing this, Fu Yanchen smiled slightly, shook his head gently, and said softly: "No, I just feel that looking at you like this, accompanying you and the child, is my happiest time. I don't want anything to disturb this tranquility, so I didn't hide anything from you."

His words were like a spring breeze, and the doubts in Xu Xiaoxiao's heart disappeared instantly. Fu Yanchen would not be like this.

"Fu Yanchen, you can't hide it from me. Something must have happened to you." There was a hint of determination in Xu Xiaoxiao's voice. Her eyes looked directly at Fu Yanchen, as if she had seen through the secret in his heart.

Fu Yanchen smiled bitterly, knowing that he could no longer hide it. He sighed softly, and then slowly said: "Xiaoxiao, that... overseas project of mine is indeed a bit troublesome, but more importantly, I may need to go out for a while to deal with some... some things I have to face."

When Xu Xiaoxiao heard this, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes, but she still looked at Fu Yanchen firmly, waiting for his next words.

"Fu Yanchen, why don't you tell the truth?"

"Xiaoxiao, I'm actually...I'm going to jail, why are you so smart."

Fu Yanchen finally told the truth, with a hint of helplessness and bitterness in his voice.

After hearing this, tears welled up in Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes, but she forced herself not to let them fall.

"Fu Yanchen, you actually don't have to do this at all."

Fu Yanchen smiled bitterly. He gently stroked Xu Xiaoxiao's face and said softly, "Xiaoxiao, there are some things I have to do. No matter what the result is, I can't escape it, but I hope you can understand that everything I do is for you and the baby, so that we can have a better future."

After hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shed tears.

Fu Yanchen hugged Xu Xiaoxiao tightly, as if he wanted to merge him into his body.

Xu Xiaoxiao understood that everything Fu Yanchen did was for their family and their future.

And she also knew that she had to be strong and persevere for Fu Yanchen, for the baby, and for this family.

"Fu Yanchen, I will never forgive you for doing this."

As Xu Xiaoxiao spoke, she pushed Fu Yanchen away forcefully. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions, including fear, uneasiness, but more of determination.

She was afraid that if she continued to hug him, she would become soft-hearted and change her mind, and let Fu Yanchen stay.

After Fu Yanchen was pushed away, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he quickly became firm again.

He looked at Xu Xiaoxiao deeply, and then said slowly: "I know, Xiaoxiao, I know you may blame me and may not forgive me, but I owe it to you. Whether you forgive me or not, I will do this."

His voice was low and firm, as if he was ready to face any consequences.

After hearing this, tears welled up in Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes again, but she forced herself not to let them fall.

She bit her lips tightly, trying to use the pain to suppress her inner emotions.

"Fu Yanchen, why are you so stupid? You know I won't forgive you, why do you still do this?"

There was a hint of tears in Xu Xiaoxiao's voice, and her eyes were full of pity and helplessness towards Fu Yanchen.

Fu Yanchen smiled slightly, and that smile contained too many emotions: bitterness, relief, determination... He shook his head gently, and then slowly said: "Xiaoxiao, there are some things I have to do, whether you forgive me or not. Everything I do is for you and the baby, so that we can have a better future. I hope you can understand my intentions, and I hope you can face it all with strength. I want the baby and you to be innocent."

After saying this, Fu Yanchen kissed Xu Xiaoxiao on the forehead, turned and left, leaving Xu Xiaoxiao alone standing there, watching his back gradually disappear with tears in her eyes.

She knew that everything Fu Yanchen did was for their family and their future.

And she also knew that she had to be strong and persevere for her baby and her family.

But Xu Xiaoxiao really couldn't forgive him.
