After dinner, Qiao Man cleared the dishes on the table and went back to the room, ready to take a bath and lie down.

Today's series of blows left Qiao Man physically and mentally exhausted, and she just wanted to be quiet.

She only dared to reveal the pain and grievance in her heart at night, when she was alone.

She usually suppresses herself, but today she really can't stand it.

The family's pressure and the project being robbed were enough for Qiao Man to bear in normal times, let alone the two things together today.

At this time, the living room.

Fu Chen drank from the cup and couldn't help but glance at Fu Shaoting: "Dad."

"Huh?" Fu Shaoting's eyes fell on him: "What's wrong?"

"Do you think today's food is a bit salty?" Fu Chen took another sip of water.

"It's true." Fu Shaoting nodded. He discovered it when he took the first bite.

But seeing Qiao Man eating mechanically, he didn't mention it.

"Aunt Qiao wouldn't have made such a mistake before. She was in a bad mood." Fu Chen also saw it, so he didn't deliberately find fault during dinner today.

"Did you see it?"

Fu Chen curled his lips and said, "I'm not a fool. Should you ask?"

He glanced at Qiao Man's room door with a warning look.

"You don't need to tell me, I was going to go too." Fu Shaoting flicked Fu Chen's forehead, stood up and walked towards Qiao Man's room with long legs.

Fu Chen sighed like a young adult and shook his head: "This family can't survive without me. Dad can't even coax people."

Qiao Man's attitude towards him during this period was noticed by Fu Chen.

She is much better than the previous women who came here for his family's money. There is nothing about her that Fu Chen dislikes. Having such a stepmother with a good personality and delicious cooking makes the family less cold as before. He is quite Happy.

Finally, there was someone by his father's side who would not be rejected by him. This was the reason why Fu Chen was willing to accept Qiao Man.

Fu Shaoting knocked on the door, but found no one answered.

He frowned slightly, opened the door and walked in, and found Qiao Man lying on the bed, with an aura of disappointment all over her body.

He couldn't help but frown, walked to the bed, and asked in a low voice: "What happened today?"

Suddenly hearing his voice, Qiao Man was startled and hurriedly sat up, a little confused: "You, when did you come in?"

"I just knocked on the door and you probably didn't hear it. What happened? You are in such a bad mood." Fu Shaoting asked bluntly.

Qiao Man lowered her eyes, hiding the bitterness in her eyes, and slowly shook her head: "I'm fine."

She didn't want to talk about the bad things that happened to her.

Fu Shaoting looked at her deeply, and the atmosphere between the two suddenly became silent.

After a moment, Fu Shaoting suddenly turned around and took Qiao Man's coat from the hanger and handed it to her: "Put it on."

Qiao Man looked at him confused, and subconsciously took the coat: "What do you want to do?"

"Come out with me."

Hearing this, Qiao Man had no choice but to get up, put on her coat, and follow Fu Shaoting out of the room.

Fu Chen was still watching TV in the living room when he heard the noise and turned to look at Fu Shaoting and Qiao Man: "Dad, are you going out?"

"Well, just do your homework." Fu Shaoting nodded slightly.

Fu Chen immediately waved his little paw: "Bye, drive carefully."

Fu Shaoting stepped forward and rubbed his head, then led Qiao Man out of the door.

Before going out, Qiao Man also said to Fu Chen with concern: "Chenchen, finish your homework and go to bed early."

She wasn't sure where Fu Shaoting would take her and when he would come back. She couldn't let Fu Chen wait.

Fu Chen glanced at her and nodded: "Don't worry."

After getting in the car, there was silence in the car.

Qiao Man looked at the unfamiliar road and asked hesitantly: "Where are you taking me?"

"You'll know when we get here." Fu Shaoting deliberately let it slip.

Qiao Man didn't ask any more questions and lowered her eyes, thoughts racing in her mind.

She must find a way to come up with the one million gift, otherwise her family will definitely make trouble with Fu Shaoting later.

She won't divorce, but she doesn't want him to be disturbed by his family either.

And the contract she signed with FY, she still wanted to take it back from Yang Li.

She had wasted so much effort on this contract, and she was really unwilling to be robbed of it.

Even though what Hong Shan said really impacted her heart, she still wanted to try again.

Just when she was dazed, she felt the car stop, and Fu Shaoting's deep voice came to her ears: "Get out of the car."

Qiao Man suddenly came to her senses, got out of the car and followed Fu Shaoting.

The two took the elevator and reached the 100th floor.

After getting out of the elevator, Qiao Man heard the roar of people around and the vast platform. She looked at Fu Shaoting with some surprise: "Where is this?"

"This is the highest observation deck in Dragon City. Many people like to come here to relax." Fu Shaoting said, leading her to a rooftop location with a telescope.

Under the leadership of Fu Shaoting, Qiao Man stood in front of the transparent glass window. When he looked around, he saw only fireworks and stars. The shock and beauty of the moment deeply stayed in Qiao Man's heart.

This observation deck can take in the famous peninsula of Dragon City, almost overlooking most of Dragon City, with thousands of lights twinkling like stars, and the light is brilliant.

The nearby lights shine towards the endless sky, and when you look up, you will see the magnificent star map.

"When I was in a bad mood before, I would come to the observation deck to stay for a while." Fu Shaoting said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Qiao Man turned to look at him, a hint of emotion flashing in her eyes.

She was not a fool, how could she not see that Fu Shaoting brought her here to relax.

Looking at such a turbulent scenery and the man beside her, the depression in Qiao Man's heart seemed to be healed a little unconsciously.

Fu Shaoting turned to look at her, staring deeply into her eyes: "My parents died when I was eighteen, and I started working hard when I was nineteen. At that time, I was looked down upon by many people, and I was under a lot of pressure..."

His low and slow voice penetrated Qiao Man's ears, making her open her eyes wide. It turned out that his parents had passed away...

No wonder I have never heard Fu Shaoting mention it.

"Let's go visit your parents when we have time." Qiao Man said with sparkling eyes.

They are married now, and she is the daughter-in-law of the Fu family. An ugly daughter-in-law always has to see her parents-in-law.

Fu Shaoting's thin lips curled up slightly, and the light of the lights reflected in his eyes: "Okay."

Qiao Man seemed to see a maybe unknown change in his eyes. Was the distance between the two too close?

Looking at his handsome face, Qiao Man's heart was pounding for some reason.

The atmosphere was getting thicker, and just as Fu Shaoting's eyes dimmed, an impulse suddenly appeared in his heart.

Suddenly Qiao Man staggered and fell backward, exclaiming: "Ah!"

Fu Shaoting's leg was also hit.

The charming atmosphere was instantly broken. Fu Shaoting's expression changed slightly, and he quickly stretched out his long arm to stabilize Qiao Man's figure.
