luo chenxi repeatedly emphasized that she looked slimmer only because she had been working rather hard recently. her body was absolutely healthy and there was no problem with it.
however, whether it was fu jingxuan, cyril, or the others in the ward, they knew very well that luo chenxi had only said those words to comfort them.
in reality, luo chenxi had been suffering from insomnia all night during this period of time. she was losing weight at a visible rate.
it was not appropriate for tan yueru to interfere with the matter at hand, so she thought of many ways to nourish her daughter-in-law's body. unfortunately, it was completely useless. luo chenxi was still getting thinner.
it made her heart ache.
fu jingxuan looked at luo chenxi's smiling face. although he did not say it out loud, he could not help but sigh deeply in his heart. he felt that he had failed his duty as a father.
in the past, luo chenxi had suffered a lot because she indulged fu jiatong too much before she acknowledged her daughter.
he had thought that as the head of the fu family, he would have the ability to take good care of his daughter and make up for what he had owed the little princess for the past twenty years.
who would have known that luo chenxi did not enjoy much of the benefits of being the fu family's young lady? on the contrary, she was severely implicated because of her background.
had it not been for mu yichen's alertness, his little princess might have lost her life by now.
"chenxi, it's dad's fault ... sigh! however, your performance this time really surprised me. if it weren't for you, i don't know what the fu family's situation would be like, and i wouldn't have been saved successfully. chenxi, you're really dad's pride!"
fu jingxuan's heart ached for her, but he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
he had never expected that luo chenxi would step forward and gather the fu family's former subordinates once again when he was missing and fu jingxuan was arrested. moreover, she did not show any signs of being at a disadvantage in the continuous game with sun bin.
even fu linchen could only do so much.
as expected of the fu family's daughter, the fu family's blood flowed in her bones.
luo chenxi did not feel proud at all when she heard his words. on the contrary, she shook her head. " it's my duty. it's always you and brother protecting me, so i can be at ease as the fu family's young lady. in fact, i should have taken up my responsibility long ago. i haven't done well enough ..."
" no, you've already done enough. trust me. " fu jingxuan stretched out his hand and placed it on the back of luo chenxi's hand. he said with a smile, " "i have such a smart, beautiful, and capable daughter. i guess my old friends are dying of envy. but ..."
fu jingxuan paused, his expression turning serious. " still, i'll take care of the rest. "
"daddy?" luo chenxi was stunned for a moment. soon after, she frowned with a disapproving look on her face. " father, what are you trying to do? was he planning to expose sun jing? you've suffered such a serious injury and haven't recovered yet. you'd better rest well. give me the evidence of sun bin's crime and i'll handle the rest ..."
"no, i have to do this myself." fu jingxuan narrowed his eyes and slowly shook his head.
luo chenxi pouted her cheeks in displeasure. " dad! "
facing the little princess's accusing eyes, fu jingxuan didn't show any signs of giving in.
"be good, listen to daddy. i'm the only one who knows how to use the evidence in my hands to its greatest effect. besides ..."
