n's long and narrow eyes narrowed into a slit, "Shào Sīnián...""Well, he said Shao Sian knew, but I don't know for sure if he did. I didn't ask Shao Sian either," Fu Xiaoyao turned her gaze towards th..."You don't have a say in this, just transfer the money to me quickly, I need it urgently!" Fu Zixuan urged impatiently.

Fu Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes, a hint of suspicion in her heart, "If you don't make it clear, I won't give you the money."

She wouldn't tell even if you asked clearly, anyway she has no money left.

"How can you be so troublesome Didn't I tell you I need it urgently Why are you still asking so many questions!" Fu Zixuan, upon hearing that Fu Xiaoyao remained unmoved and refused to give him the money, immediately exploded in anger.

Fu Xiaoyao clutched her phone, also getting angry, "Should I be asking you questions all the time You take money from me, at least I should know how it's being used, right You don't even tell me how you're using it, why should I give you money"

"Just because you're my older sister doesn't mean you owe me money. Don't forget, I'm the only son in our family, and you'll need me to support you in the future." Fu Zixuan snorted arrogantly.

Fu Xiaoyao couldn't help rolling her eyes. "You make it sound like you carried me."

"I..." Fu Zixuan choked, his face flushed red by her words, both embarrassed and annoyed. "That's because I haven't reached that level yet. Just wait until I become successful, brother-in-law will definitely look at me with admiration. Then he won't be so cold to you."

He stubbornly defended himself.

Fu Xiaoyao coldly smirked, "Developed Then tell me, did you close the deal with your client last time when you took them out for dinner"

Fu Zixuan's eyes rolled, and he replied calmly, "They're yellow. The product quality of those few clients doesn't meet the standard."

"Is that so..." Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips, "Is it that the quality doesn't meet the standard, or are you lying Fu Zixuan, you know it yourself. Do you think I'm easy to fool"

He was indeed heartbroken over his parents and his younger brother.

But she had never truly given up on them, because they were her family after all. If she could, she truly wished for them to reform, but it seemed now that she had been too naive.

She's not stupid, she could tell that her younger brother was lying to her.

"Fu Xiaoyao, you said I was lying to you" On the phone, Fu Zixuan sounded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on as he jumped up after hearing what Fu Xiaoyao had said.

Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her temples wearily, "Zixuan, is being stubborn interesting I know what kind of person you are. Last time you said you were treating clients to dinner, I knew it wasn't true. I just didn't expose you."

Fu Zixuan fell silent, and after a few seconds, he spoke in a cold voice, “I admit it, I lied to you. I didn’t go into business, but so what The money is mine once it's given to me. How I spend it has nothing to do with you. Just tell me, will you give me the money or not!”

"I have no money, and I can't give it to you. If you really need the money for something important, I will find a way to help you, but..."

"Enough!" Fu Zixuan shouted, interrupting Fu Xiaoyao. "What's all this talk for To put it bluntly, you just don't want to give me money."

"I have nothing..." Fu Xiaoyao sighed wearily.

She was really out of money.

"No money Don't bull** me. I remember you, Fu Xiaoyao. If you don't give me money now, don't expect me to back you up later. A selfish woman like you who doesn't even help her own brother, it's no wonder your brother-in-law looks down on you!" Fu Zixuan arrogantly hung up the phone.

Fu Xiaoyao was so angry that her eyes were red.

Is this something a younger brother should say to his older sister

He's stabbing at her heart with a knife, and if she were selfish, wouldn't she have nothing left

Besides, Lu Hanchuan looked down on her, not because of this reason, but because he had someone else in his heart...

Thinking of this, Fu Xiaoyao only felt very wronged, even a little breathless.

She threw her phone down and curled up on the sofa, hugging her knees to her chest and burying her head in them, sobbing softly.

After an unknown amount of time, footsteps sounded outside the door, followed by the creaking of it opening. A tall figure stepped inside.

"What's wrong" Lu Hanchuan couldn't help but ask, seeing the woman on the couch radiating gloom.

Fu Xiaoyao heard his voice and slowly raised her head, "You're back."

She gave him a strained smile.

Lu Hanchuan nodded, stared at her face for a moment, "Have you been crying"

"No..." She frantically wiped at her eyes.

Lu Hanchuan coldly snorted, "Didn't you cry What are you wiping your eyes for"

Fu Xiaoyao's expression stiffened, and she awkwardly tugged at the corner of her mouth.

"Come on, what's wrong" Lu Hanchuan took off his coat and threw it on the bed, pulled up a chair opposite her and asked again.

Fu Xiaoyao took a deep breath, "It's nothing, just some things at home."

"What's wrong"

Fu Xiaoyao shook her head and smiled wryly, "It's my younger brother. He came to ask me for money again. I can't give it to him, so he scolded me."

"Scolding by your younger brother" Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow, looking at her with strange eyes, "You're really something!"

"I..." Fu Xiaoyao lowered her head, speechless.

"Does he often treat you this way"

"More or less." Fu Xiaoyao sighed.

When she was little, her younger brother was actually quite good to her. When their parents scolded or beat her, he would even protect her.

But then something strange happened. Suddenly, her brother started acting like her parents, frowning at her, looking down on her, and even hitting and scolding her.

She still doesn't know the reason.

"Then you've never thought of rebelling" Lu Hanchuan crossed his arms.

Fu Xiaoyao was stunned. “Resistance”

"Well, I did a little research on you three years ago and knew about your family situation. You were never loved by your parents since childhood, and they always took from you instead of giving. This situation is something you can resist." Lu Hanchuan stated calmly.

Fu Xiaoyao's lips moved slightly, "I never thought about rebelling against them, and they are my parents, how could I..."

"Foolish!" Lu Hanchuan sneered, "Your parents are uncaring, you don't need to worry about them that much, just provide a certain amount of alimony each month."

"It's not that simple," Fu Xiaoyao said with dimmed eyes, drooping her gaze. "I don't have the ability or the capital to fight back against them. If I really did, I would face something I'm too afraid to even think about, let alone the fact that they are my parents after all."

She still remembered that before her younger brother was born, her parents actually liked her quite a bit and were kind to her.

Although everything changed afterward, they still raised her in the end.

Just that alone, she couldn't just leave them be.

Seeing Fu Xiaoyao reject his proposal, Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure you won't resist Aren't you afraid that they will drag you down one day"

"I believe they won't. Even if they dislike me, it's impossible for them to truly harm their own daughter, right" Fu Xiaoyao smiled confidently, not taking his words to heart at all.

Lu Hanchuan pursed his thin lips, "Do as you please, but I hope you won't regret it."

That couple from the Fu family, in his eyes, weren't good people at all. They had no affection for their daughter, Fu Xiaoyao, and only Fu Xiaoyao, that foolish woman, couldn't see it.

But he had already pointed out, this foolish woman doesn't even care for herself, what does he care about

Although he thought so, Lu Hanchuan could very obviously feel a great deal of restlessness in his heart. He was restless about Fu Xiaoyao not listening to his advice, therefore his face looked rather bad at the moment.

Fu Xiaoyao saw that the man's aura was very low, knowing he was angry, she was a little timid for a moment, "Hanchuan, can you do me a favor"

She gazed at him cautiously.

Lu Hanchuan glanced back at her, his eyes cold. "What's the matter"nchuan ordered, then continued walking away.Jo Mo followed closely behind him, "I understand, I'll do it right away.""Hmm." Lu Hánchuan nodded, opening the study door.The two talked for a long time in...
