Ever since the last time Zhu Zhu and Nan Xun had dinner together, Nan Xun seemed to be deliberately avoiding Zhu Zhu and went on a business trip abroad and didn't come back for half a month.
Zhu Zhu felt a sense of loss as she faced the empty villa. When they first got married, Nan Xun was also away from home. Sometimes he wouldn't come home for ten days or even half a month. Back then, Zhu Zhu didn't care, and she felt this was a free and unconstrained existence.
But now Zhu Zhu's mood has changed. As long as Nan Xun doesn't come back, she becomes anxious and worried, with an empty heart and nowhere to put it.
Nanxun was away on a business trip. The little kindness he had shown Zhu Zhu in the past seemed like a dream. It was all her own fault for being so sentimental. Not only had she gotten herself into this mess, but she had also made things difficult for others.
During this period, Zhu Zhu also came home very late, devoted herself to work every day, and stayed on the set until very late.
An Yiqing seems to feel very guilty towards Zhu Zhu ever since that incident. He often asks about Zhu Zhu's well-being and shows great concern for her. However, Zhu Zhu already has Nan Xun in her heart and ignores An Yiqing's expressions.
"Zhu Zhu!" Zhu Zhu was watching the director finish shooting a scene when the phone rang. Her mother, Hu Jinhua, spoke anxiously, "Oh no! Something's happened to your father! Come back soon!"
"What happened? Mom, tell me slowly."
"Your father started a project a while ago and borrowed 50 million from individuals and banks, but the borrowers ran away. Now your father is being chased for debt, and I'm afraid he won't even be able to keep the two pearls."
Zhu Zhu fell into her chair upon hearing this. Shuangzhu was now being run by people sent by Nan Xun. How could her father take on such a large project and take such a huge risk? How could she not have known about it beforehand?
"Mom! Don't panic. I'll be home soon. Ask Dad to wait for me at home." Zhu Zhu said, then packed up and left the set.
"Zhu Zhu, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Zhu was about to leave when she bumped into An Yiqing. "You look so ugly."
"It's okay. Just move aside."
"Where are you going?" An Yiqing grabbed Zhu Zhu and said, "You are not in a good condition to drive. Anyway, let me drive you."
Zhu Zhu struggled a few times but failed to break free. Thinking that she was extremely anxious and really not fit to drive, she threw the car keys to An Yiqing and said, "Take me home."
In the car, An Yiqing observed Zhu Zhu's expression from time to time. Seeing her lips tightly pursed and silent, he knew that the situation must be serious.
"Zhu Zhu, what happened? Tell me and see if I can help."
Zhu Zhu frowned and said coldly, "No need."
"I know I was wrong before. I have always wanted to make it up to you. Zhu Zhu, I will do whatever I can. I hope you can give me a chance."
"An Yiqing, some things are over and done with. Don't mention them again. From now on, you and I will at most be partners, so you don't need to care about my personal affairs."
An Yiqing squeezed the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and finally sighed: "I know you are still angry with me. But it doesn't matter. As long as you need anything, come to me anytime. I will do my best to help you."
Zhu Zhu was extremely anxious and no longer had the energy to argue with An Yiqing, so she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, ignoring him.
Seeing Zhu Zhu's refusal to communicate, An Yiqing knew it wouldn't be easy for her to forgive him. So he kept quiet. The two of them walked to Zhu's house in silence.
"I'm here. You can go back. Thank you." Zhu Zhu said and walked into the house without looking back.
