nd the moment he saw her, his pupils dilated slightly, his heart as if struck by something, stunned for a moment.Seeing the man staring at her, Fu Xiaoyao became even more nervous. Her heart beat fast...Pretending to be someone else's granddaughter, that doesn't sound believable at all.
Shi Mo, of course, knew what Fu Xiao Yao was worried about. He smiled nonchalantly, “My grandmother has memory problems. She has forgotten that my sister is no longer alive. In her memory, my sister is still alive. Our family couldn't bear to tell her this cruel truth, so we just said that my sister is abroad for treatment.”
"I understand your concerns, worrying that the elderly would be too heartbroken to learn the truth. But you can't keep this a secret forever," Fu Xiaoyao said.
Shi Mo sighed, "You're right, lies will eventually be exposed, but kind lies are different. No one would bother to expose them. I already told my parents that you and my sister look alike, and they also hope that I take you to see our grandmother."
"Although that's true, aren't you afraid your grandmother will recognize that I'm not her granddaughter" Fu Xiaoyao looked at him.
Shi Mo gently shook her head. "Grandmother wouldn't recognize her; she hasn't seen her sister in many years. And the doctor said Grandmother wouldn't live past this year, so we want to make sure she passes away without regrets."
"I see." Fu Xiaoyao understood his meaning.
"Do you agree then"
Fu Xiaoyao nodded, "I agree. You helped me, and I should help you too."
Even if Lü Hánchuan disagreed, she had decided to help with this.
"Thank you, can I call you Xiaoyao I used to call my little sister that way." Shi Mo asked her.
Fu Xiaoyao let out a slightly embarrassed hum, "Yes, just don't mind it."
"How could you dislike me To me, you're like my sister." Shi Mo couldn't help but reach out with one hand and stroke her head.
Fu Xiaoyao felt the warmth of his big palm, and all the unease in her heart calmed down at that moment.
His palm was really warm, Lu Hanchuan's palm was also warm, but the feeling it gave her was different from Shi Mo's.
The warmth of Lu Hanchuan's large palm made her linger.
And Shi Mo's presence, inexplicably, brought her a sense of peace from the bottom of her heart.
She didn't know why she felt this way, but the feeling wasn't unpleasant at all. Instead, she wanted more and more of it.
"Brother..." She unconsciously called out those two words, but her voice was very soft.
Shi Mo didn't hear clearly and hummed in doubt, "What did you just say"
"N-nothing... it's nothing." Fu Xiaoyao lowered her head, her cheeks slightly flushed, unable to meet his gaze.
She just called him "brother"! Luckily, he didn't hear her, or she would have been mortified.
But she really wished she had a brother who could protect her.
"Oh, right, you haven't said who you're looking for yet," Shi Mo reminded.
Fu Xiaoyao frustratedly tugged at her hair, "I'm sorry, the person I'm looking for is Yu Lin, the extra Yu, Wang Shulin's Lin."
"I got it, just a minute." Shi Mo parked his car by the roadside and took out his phone to call someone he knew at the police station.
A few minutes later, the police station replied.
Shi Mo took out paper and pen, listening to the person on the phone while writing down the address.
After hanging up the phone, he tore down the piece of paper with the address written on it and handed it to Fu Xiaoyao. “The person you’re looking for is right here,”
"Huanyu Hotel" Fu Xiaoyao hurriedly took it.
"It's a hotel under the Tang Group," Shi Mo nodded.
Fu Xiaoyao clenched the paper in her hand, "Trouble Mr. Send me there once, thank you."
"Don't be so polite, let's go." Shi Mo restarted the car.
The Huanyu Hotel is in the city center, a drive of less than half an hour.
After greeting the receptionist, Fu Xiaoyao entered the elevator with Shi Mo.
In the elevator, Fu Xiaoyao was preoccupied with thoughts, her usually bright face now clouded with gloom.
She didn't know why Yu Lin would come to stay in a hotel, and even live in a business suite.
Not to mention now, even in the past when there were no problems with the Yu family, it was absolutely unaffordable.
Thus, Yu Lin has been hiding so much from her!
"This is it." A reminder from Shimo echoed in her ear as she pondered.
Fu Xiaoyao's eyes flickered, and she realized that she had unknowingly arrived at Yu Lin's suite door.
"Knock, knock" Shi Mo asked her.
Fu Xiaoyao took a deep breath and nodded.
Shi Mo raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.
From inside the door, Yu Lin's voice rang out, "Who is it"
Shi Mo looked at Fu Xiaoyao, gesturing for her to answer.
Fu Xiaoyao thought for a moment, then croaked in a strained voice, "Room service, Miss. Please open the door."
"I didn't call room service" Yu Lin's voice was getting closer, she must be walking towards the door.
Fu Xiaoyao continued, "This is about our hotel's service. We are mainly conducting a survey to investigate the satisfaction level of our guests."
"That's it, just a moment." Yu Lin seemed to believe him.
Fu Xiaoyao let out a sigh of relief.
She wasn't intentionally trying to impersonate a hotel staff member. She was just worried that if she told her real name, Yulin wouldn't see her.
Therefore, just in case, she had no choice but to resort to this last resort.
Click, the door opened.
Yu Lin poked her head out from inside, "What investigation report..."
Before she could finish, her eyes widened in disbelief, staring out at Fu Xiaoyao as if seeing a ghost, "You..."
"Linlin, you made me look for you everywhere!" Fu Xiaoyao stared at her coldly.
Yu Lin's face instantly paled, her eyes filled with panic. "You... you got the wrong person."
As she spoke, she was about to close the door.
Seeing this, Fu Xiaoyao immediately reached out to block her. "Admit your mistake Yulin, don't you think this excuse is a bit too ridiculous"
Yu Lin was choked by her words, and immediately reacted in panic, almost crying. "Xiao Yao, I don't know how you found this place, but please leave, I beg you, okay"
"Leave" Fu Xiaoyao laughed, a sarcastic laugh. "Why should I leave I haven't figured everything out yet. You want me to leave, I tell you, it's impossible! Mr. Shi!"
Shi Mo looked at her.
Fu Xiaoyao pleaded, "Could you watch the door for me I have a lot to talk to her about, and I don't want to give her a chance to run out."
She pointed at Yulin.
Shi Mo nodded, “Sure.”
"Thank you, I'll finish the talk quickly and won't waste your time." Fu Xiaoyao smiled gratefully, narrowed her eyes, and pushed Yu Lin forcefully inside, then entered the suite herself.
With a bang, the door shut.
Yu Lin lowered her head, not daring to face Fu Xiaoyao.
Fu Xiaoyao ignored her and kept looking around the room. She saw many suitcases placed on the floor, and she raised an eyebrow slightly, "Where are Uncle and Aunt"
Yu Lin did not answer.
Fu Xiaoyao wasn't surprised. She walked over to the sofa and sat down, "I heard from your neighbor that your family is moving abroad, right"
Yu Lin nodded slightly, "My parents went abroad for treatment last night and left. As for me, I still have some things to finish..."
"So he stayed." Fu Xiaoyao finished the sentence she left hanging.
Yu Lin fell silent again.
Fu Xiaoyao's gaze fell upon her, her eyes filled with disappointment and anger, "And the thing you didn't finish doing was giving my grandfather medicine"
Yu Lin's pupils shrank, and her head bowed even lower, "I'm sorry..."
"You admit you did it" Fu Xiaoyao clenched her fists.
Yu Lin burst into tears, "It was me. I couldn't help it."
"What do you mean 'there's no way' Tell me, why are you doing this Have I done anything wrong to you" Fu Xiaoyao stood up and questioned her loudly.nd didn't ask what he had said to Fu Xiaoyao inside. He went straight to the point, "How long are you planning to stay in China" "For a while," he replied, "I want to wait for the serum to..." 。Shi Mo...
