Due to the time difference, Gu Weiwei suffered from insomnia on her first night back in China.

Fu Hanzheng finished some work and returned to the room, frowning when he saw her still sitting on the bed reading.

Why aren't you asleep yet?

"I can't sleep." Gu Weiwei put down her book and looked at him, asking, "Are you going to the company tomorrow?"

"You've been making a fuss about coming back, all you want is for me to come back to work," Fu Hanzheng scoffed.

Gu Weiwei knew that he had seen through her purpose, so she honestly told him.

"The relationship between the Second Young Master and Ling Jiao is indeed a bit tricky. We two have some conflicts and we're anxious about it ourselves, so let's put ourselves in each other's shoes."

"When did we have a conflict?" Fu Hanzheng asked.

Gu Weiwei thought for a moment, "It seems there really isn't."

Aside from a few minor issues before she fell in love with him, there were almost no conflicts between them.

“Ling Jiao’s type isn’t suitable for him,” Fu Hanzheng said calmly.

He was only analyzing from his family's perspective that Fu Shiqin wouldn't have an easy time winning over a girl who lacked a sense of security.

If this cultivation leads to a positive outcome, that would be wonderful, but it would be best if it didn't, as that would only cause more heartache.

"Not suitable?" Gu Weiwei looked at him strangely and muttered, "This doesn't sound like something you would say."

When it comes to matters of the heart, there's no such thing as being suitable or unsuitable; it's all about whether you love someone or not.

"From a purely rational perspective, I won't interfere in their affairs," Fu Shiqin said frankly.

Gu Weiwei sat on the bed, hugging a pillow, and analyzed the situation after much thought.

"I think Ling Jiao wasn't completely unmoved by the Second Young Master. It's probably because of her background and the insecurity she felt growing up that she was more afraid of losing him than of liking him."

"It's not because I don't like it, it's just a form of self-protection."

...

She was afraid that she would get too deeply involved in the relationship and then lose it in the end, so she gave it up when she could have it.

"Furthermore, Shi Qin's actions make it impossible for her to believe that their relationship can last," Fu Hanzheng said.

Gu Weiwei nodded emphatically, "Yes, so the two of them need time and the right opportunity to resolve their differences."

Love is never a one-person affair. From falling in love with another person, to falling in love with each other, to finally walking together and getting married, it takes a lot of going through.

After she finished speaking, she reached out and hugged the man standing by the bed.

Fu Hanzheng glanced down at her and asked with a light laugh.

"What's wrong."

"Thank you for not wavering back then, otherwise... I wouldn't have been able to persevere either," Gu Weiwei said.

If Fu Hanzheng wavers after she reveals her true background to him, she probably won't be able to hold on for long.

Because he remained unwavering in the slightest, she remained steadfast and without regrets even when the wedding was called off and the Fu family elders objected.

For her, the most important thing was not the attitude of the other members of the Fu family, but the attitude of the person she loved.

Fu Hanzheng lowered his head and kissed her hair. He was shocked when he learned her true background, but he never had the thought of giving up on their relationship.

He was simply terrified by what he had witnessed, and he was only gone for a few hours, during which time she nearly left as well.

Before telling him all that, she must have lived in fear and torment every day. At that time, he did not share any of her burdens, so how could he bear to disappoint her when she was looking forward to him the most?
