Fu Hanzheng recalled those nights she had nightmares, and felt a pang of heartache.

If she was in so much pain even in her dreams, how much pain must she have felt when her heart was actually ripped out?

Seeing his expression, Yuan Shuo remained silent for a while before continuing.

"Ling Yan has a congenital heart disease. She was saved by Weiwei when she tried to commit suicide. Knowing that she also loves movies and has always wanted to be a movie actress, Weiwei devoted herself to creating "The Dream of Immortality" for her, which made her dream come true and she became a world-renowned movie queen."

“At that time, Ling Yan didn’t have many years left to live, and Weiwei happened to have the same rare Bombay blood type as her. When someone approached her, she betrayed Weiwei and injected her with brain-dead drugs after Weiwei woke up from her serious injuries. She also persuaded Gu Siting to donate his heart to her.”

"Even if Gu Siting did not intend to kill her, he cannot escape responsibility for her death."

...

It seems that all she told him was that she was Gu Weiwei.

As for other matters, they were not told to him in detail.

"Gu Siting soon found out she was with me. How did he know?" Fu Hanzheng pressed.

Even when she was in front of him, Gu Siting never knew that she was Gu Weiwei.

Now, why do we need to know?

“We don’t know the specifics, but we’ve heard that Gu Siting acquired an antique called the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead, and the person who lent it to him said they would tell him where she is now.” Yuan Shuo sighed and said, “If she hadn’t turned into what she is now, we could not believe such a thing, but… it might be true.”

He even speculated that her rebirth in Mu Weiwei's body might also be due to the Nine-Eyed Heavenly Pearl.

Fu Hanzheng frowned and said.

"He knows he'll take her back, right?"

“If Gu Siting finds out she’s with you, he’ll definitely stop at nothing to get her back.” Yuan Shuo looked at Fu Hanzheng, whose expression was deep and unfathomable, and said with concern, “And your family… probably won’t be able to tolerate her either.”

Fu Hanzheng remained silent, but his mood grew heavier.

He couldn't imagine what would happen if the old lady and his father found out...

“She would never tell you unless absolutely necessary.” Yuan Shuo looked at the silent Fu Hanzheng and said sincerely, “She has lied to you time and time again about the Gu family issue, and she has lied to you time and time again about this matter, simply because she is afraid that if she knew, she would no longer like him.”

“I advised her to tell you sooner, but she said she wanted to wait until you liked her a little more, a little more, so that when you found out, maybe you wouldn’t break up with her.”

...

Fu Hanzheng glanced down at the watch on his left wrist, below which was a red string.

She said it was the Three Lives Rope, meaning a predestined fate spanning three lifetimes.

Lately, she's been making wishes about forever, which turns out was what led him to find out everything and break up with her.

Yuan Shuo checked the time and said.

"Is there anything else you want to ask? I'm about to head back; I have to catch a flight early this morning."

He agreed and would go with Watson to the Dorrance family today to meet Carman Dorrance.

"What exactly is her relationship with Gu Siting?" Fu Hanzheng asked the last question.

She was adopted by the Gu family, and in principle, she and Gu Siting were siblings.

However, judging from Gu Siting's various actions, he doesn't seem like an older brother's obsession with his younger sister, but rather like a man's obsession with the woman he loves.
