Chapter 213 She Is Not a Member of the Fu Family

ed, "I really don't know...""Alright, alright." Yu Lin waved her hand. "I'm not angry, I was just teasing you. Enough of that, try this set on and see what you think"She picked out a pink dress and h..."Secrets" Lu Hanchuan's eyes flashed with interest.

The aunt nodded, "Yes, a secret known to everyone in our village."

"Alright, let's talk outside." Lu Hanchuan agreed, stood up and walked out.

The aunt was about to follow, but Fu Xiaoyao grabbed her arm. She felt a little resentful, "Auntie, what secret do you have to tell him that you won't tell me"

The aunt chuckled, “That secret, well, I really can't tell you it. At least not now.”

After finishing her words, she patted Fu Xiaoyao's hand meaningfully and turned to leave.

Outside the courtyard, Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and stared intently at the aunt. "Come on, what's the secret about Xiaoyao"

The aunt's face was full of surprise, "How did you know I was talking about little Yao"

Lu Hanchuan let out a light sigh, "You deliberately asked me out and told Xiaoyao that sentence. It's obvious this secret is about her, isn't it"

The aunt suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. You young people really do know more."

"You flatter me." Lu Hanchuan lowered his eyes and smiled faintly, then became serious. "Now, auntie, tell me about Xiaoyao's secret."

"I just said this secret, and everyone in the village knows it, but we've all been hiding it from little Yao. That is, little Yao isn't a child of the Fu family," said the aunt.

Lu Hanchuan's pupils constricted, "What did you say Xiaoyao isn't Fu family's child"

"Yes, little Yao was the girl that Fu's couple brought back from outside twenty-five years ago. Back then, this matter caused quite a stir in our village."

"Then who are her biological parents" Lu Hanchuan asked, his lips pursed.

The aunt shook her head. "We don't know that either. We asked the Fu family couple, but they wouldn't say anything. So we've always suspected that Xiaoyao is their stolen child, or a child bought from a trafficker."

"Why do you think so" Lu Hanchuan said in a deep voice.

The auntie sighed, “That’s because the Fu couple hadn’t had children for several years after they got married. They went out on a trip and came back less than half a year later with a just-over-a-month-old baby. And they didn't say anything about where the child came from, so that’s why we all have our suspicions.”

Lu Hanchuan nodded, "That's certainly possible, but why would you tell me this"

The aunt smiled, "That's because we all feel sorry for Little Yao. We all know what kind of people the Fu family are. When Little Yao was young, she was often mistreated by them. Let me tell you..."

"How" Lu Hanchuan's handsome face was cold.

The aunt rolled her eyes. “Actually, before Xiaoyao was five years old, that couple treated her pretty well. But after their son was born, they started to dislike Xiaoyao in every way. They would beat or scold her, and often wouldn't give her food. We couldn't bear to see it, so we said something a few times, but the couple wouldn't listen.”

"What happened later" Lu Hanchuan clenched his fists, anger burning in his eyes.

He knew that the Fu couple favored sons over daughters, but he didn't expect that the reason for favoring sons over daughters was because Fu Xiaoyao wasn't their biological child.

No wonder he had previously felt that she was nothing like that couple, not just in appearance, but also in character and morals.

And what shocked and angered him the most was that they had abused her!

Later on, the couple moved to the city so their son could go to school there. They left little Yao with Mr. and Mrs. Fu, her grandparents, but Mr. and Mrs. Fu treated little Yao very well.

At this point, the aunt sighed, “It’s a pity, Old Fu and his wife died early. After that, little Yao was taken away by that couple. Although I don't know how little Yao lived after being taken away, just thinking about the character of that couple, I can guess that little Yao didn't have it easy.”

Lu Hanchuan snorted coldly.

It wasn't just bad, that couple, along with their son, desperately sucked Fu Xiaoyao's blood.

He also mentioned cutting off ties with that woman and the couple, offering his help if she agreed.

But that woman was too stubborn, she refused to say anything.

"Having said so much, I haven't gotten to the point yet." The aunt smiled a little sheepishly.

Lu Hanchuan, hearing this, his tense face improved slightly. "Auntie, your purpose is to hope I help Xiaoyao find her biological parents"

"Yes." The aunt responded repeatedly, "That's exactly what I mean. Actually, I wasn't planning on telling you this, but after thinking it over, I decided to tell you. It's not just because I feel sorry for Little Yao, more importantly, you guys have helped our village, and I don't really have anything to repay you with, so I might as well tell you this secret."

"Thank you, auntie," Lu Hankan said.

The aunt waved her hand. “I should be the one thanking you. If it weren't for Xiao Yao finding such a good husband like you, our village wouldn't have this opportunity I just hope you can find Xiao Yao's biological parents so she can get rid of that Fu family as soon as possible.”

"Don't worry, I can do it," Lu Hanchuan assured with a nod.

"I believe you, I can see that you really care about Xiao Yao, and that's one reason why I feel comfortable telling you this secret. But Xiaolu, please don't tell Xiao Yao about it for now. I'm worried she won't be able to handle it. Wait until you find her biological parents before you tell her." The aunt instructed.

Lu Hanchuan hummed in response, “I know what to do.”

That woman still had feelings for the Fu family couple.

If she knew now that the reason they had always been unkind to her was because she wasn't their daughter, she would definitely collapse.

Her body now can't take this kind of stimulation anymore.

"That's good then, I'll go cook dinner now." The aunt said, opened the gate to the courtyard and went out.

Lu Hánchuan stood there for a moment, then turned and walked back to the main hall.

Fu Xiaoyao was lying on the table in the main hall playing with her phone. She caught sight of him coming in from the corner of her eye and quickly straightened up, "Is it over"

"Mm." Lu Hanzhen nodded.

Fu Xiaoyao put down her phone, "What did your aunt tell you"

"What do you want to know" Lu Hanchuan looked at her.

Fu Xiaoyao's eyes darted around. "I don't want to," she said.

"Is that so" Lu Hanchuan looked at her, clearly wanting to know but stubbornly refusing to admit it. He found it rather amusing.

Fu Xiaoyao snorted, "Yes!"

"Is that so" Lu Hánchuan raised his chin. "Then I won't tell you. I was going to tell you anyway, but since you don't want to know, forget it."

When he was finished speaking, he took his phone and went into the room, leaving Fu Xiaoyao alone, dumbfounded, sitting there, feeling deeply frustrated.

If she had known better, she wouldn't have been so tough-tongued!

Thinking about it, Fu Xiaoyao glared angrily at the closed door, feeling a bit wronged in her heart.

He'd already planned to tell her, but when she said that, he didn't say anything at all.

"Madam, what's wrong" Aunt Song entered with a glass of milk and a freshly brewed pot of tea. Seeing Fu Xiaoyao's distressed face, she couldn't help but ask with concern.

Fu Xiaoyao withdrew her gaze and shook her head. "I'm fine."

"Really" Aunt Song wasn't quite convinced.

Fu Xiaoyao nodded firmly, "Really."

"That's all right then." Aunt Song didn't ask any further, handing her the milk.

Fu Xiaoyao took it and thanked her.

Aunt Song smiled and patted her head, then her gaze swept across the hall, not seeing Lu Hankan, she couldn't help but wonder, "Madam, where is Mr. Lu" of discrimination is too obvious, isn't it 。"No disturbance " 。The etiquette teacher replied. 。Lu Hanchuan raised his chin. "Then that's good, then the teacher can start resting tomorrow, no need to...
