Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth-Chapter 853: Adorable Contrasts

Fu Shihan took a week off work to accompany her in Canada, paying the price by being as busy as a dog.

Since his return, Fu Shili has started skipping work, saying he’s going to hang out with Sheng Qian.

Fu Shihan had no choice, he had to slowly pick up the work he had left behind.

So, ever since they returned to the country, aside from the first day when he sent Su Wanxin home, she hadn’t seen him since. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Moreover, Su Wanxin is usually busy with work too. Busy plus busy equals not much contact.

A few messages a day, a two-minute phone call, that’s how they maintained contact.

During the days in Canada, the two were a bit too attached, so Su Wanxin felt that taking a break to cool off was actually quite good.

Lu Ci chatted with her softly about Fu Shihan for a bit, then stopped disturbing her rest.

Su Wanxin closed her eyes until the car reached the destination.

She got out of the car, her smile mischievous, her gaze darting back and forth between Lu Ci and Su Yao.

When Su Yao seemed about to enter the house, Lu Ci held her hand to stop her from leaving and teased, "Give a kiss~"

Su Yao gasped and ran straight into the house before getting scolded.

As the door closed, Lu Ci withdrew his gaze and looked at Su Yao with a smile in his eyes. "Shall we listen to her and kiss?"

Su Yao shook her head, refusing.

"Come on, give me a kiss and I’ll leave." Lu Ci lowered his head proactively, "I’ll pick you up after work for dinner tomorrow."

"I have a business trip tomorrow, flying in the afternoon, back the day after tomorrow morning."

"Got a new case?"

"Yes."

"Good luck, Lawyer Yao." Lu Ci smiled, giving her a peck, happy to see she didn’t dodge this time. "Then I’ll come find you at noon tomorrow, and after lunch, I’ll take you to the airport."

"Isn’t your company busy?"

"Schedules can be postponed. If you’re not free tomorrow night, I’ll just work late at the office."

"You..." Su Yao frowned, wanting to know where this man’s limits were.

He’s always accommodating her, be it timing or other issues, so gently it was unsettling.

"Were you always like this before?"

"Like how?"

"Like with those blind dates of yours, were you also this accommodating?"

Lu Ci chuckled, "Are you jealous?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Then I won’t tell you."

"Hey!" Su Yao was annoyed. "Spit it out!"

"How could I possibly be so accommodating to everyone?" Lu Ci’s smile faded. "You really think I have that much patience?"

Patience is limited, so it should be given to those who deserve it.

"My mom is going on a business trip to Empire next week, she might meet Aunt Qi. If Aunt Qi asks about your impression of me, remember to say something nice."

"Your mom is going to see my mom? Why?"

"Why?" Lu Ci pinched her nose. "Lu Family is getting a daughter-in-law, should Aunt Qi really have to come back just to meet my parents?"

"...Oh."

"Alright, go inside and find some medicine for Wanwan."

"Okay, then I’ll head in. Bye-bye."

Su Yao waved at him and turned to go inside.

Lu Ci leaned on the car, thinking about the video recording he had seen of her in open court, couldn’t help but laugh.

Lawyer Yao’s stark contrast in and out of court was so entertaining.

Lu Ci got in the car to go home, and after arriving home and thinking about how pitiful Su Wanxin looked when sick, sent a message to Fu Shihan, telling him to check on her again when he got back, and if she vomits again, make sure to take her for an injection.

It was half an hour later when Fu Shihan saw the message, he immediately sent Su Wanxin a video call.
