Once inside the elevator, Gu Weiwei grabbed the handrail and closed her eyes to take a few deep breaths.
She once thought that if she saw Gu Siting again, she would be heartbroken for him.
It turned out that it wasn't that painful.
Qiao Lin stood to the side, looking worried, and asked cautiously.
"Did he...?"
In the middle of the night, in a hotel suite, he gave her a check for such a considerable amount of money.
He couldn't help but suspect that something had happened between her and Gu Siting.
"No, they're arresting someone else, they've arrested the wrong person," Gu Weiwei explained.
Qiao Lin patted his chest. "Oh dear, I was so scared I almost lost my soul."
"Don't tell the Third Young Master and the others about tonight's events," Gu Weiwei instructed.
"I didn't tell anyone, I just quietly came out the back door."
Because the hotel they stayed at was mostly occupied by celebrities attending the film festival, a lot of reporters and fans were waiting nearby.
Gu Weiwei put her wig back on, and to avoid being photographed by paparazzi, the two of them went back through a small door in the hotel kitchen.
Qiao Lin didn't ask any further questions and took her back to her room.
"Go to sleep early, you have to catch a flight tomorrow."
Gu Weiwei returned to her room, locked the door, and lay down on the bed, unable to fall asleep at first.
Later, I fell asleep and started having nightmares again.
He dreamt again and again of Ling Yan ripping out his heart while he was still alive, with Gu Siting standing by indifferently.
The people and things she used to know were all unfamiliar and frightening to her.
At two o'clock in the morning, I woke up in a cold sweat and dared not fall back asleep.
She reached for her phone and suddenly realized that Fu Hanzheng hadn't contacted her for almost two days.
My finger hovered over "Zhengzheng Baby" in the contacts, tapping and exiting repeatedly.
In the end, I still dialed the number.
I thought Fu Hanzheng was already asleep and wouldn't answer the phone.
To my surprise, the phone was answered after only one ring.
"slight."
A deep, magnetic voice sounded in her ear, and Gu Weiwei felt a lump in her throat.
She never imagined she would miss that voice so much.
She didn't speak, so Fu Hanzheng asked.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Gu Weiwei sat on the bed in silence for a while before speaking.
"I had a nightmare and just woke up."
Fu Hanzheng noticed that her voice was a little choked up, and he remembered how she looked when she had a nightmare last time.
"I'm sorry, I'm not here for you."
Gu Weiwei sat on the bed with her knees drawn up to her chest, and said in a sullen voice.
"If you're not busy, let's talk for a bit."
For some reason, she found herself missing his voice.
Fu Hanzheng put down his work and recalled the photo he had just seen.
You look beautiful tonight.
Yes, there was a foreign male celebrity who took a photo with her, and damn it, he put his hand on her shoulder.
"Thank you for sending the dress," Gu Weiwei said with a smile.
She didn't believe that Fu Shiyi could get such an expensive and rare dress with just two pieces of information.
Fu Hanzheng wasn't good at chatting; he ran out of things to say after only a few sentences.
"How about I read you a passage, see if that helps you fall asleep?"
"Um."
The study in Jinxiu Apartment, Beijing.
Fu Hanzheng got up from his desk and went to the bookshelf to find a book.
On his computer, Fu Shiqin, who was giving a remote video report to Fu Hanzheng, pounded the table in frustration.
"My business is urgent, can you finish dealing with it before you put your girlfriend to sleep!"
Fu Hanzheng glanced at the bookshelf and realized that he didn't have any suitable books to read to her as bedtime stories.
After a moment of contemplation, he recited a passage of English poetry in a low voice.
[Whenever you need me, I'll be here.]
[Whenever you're in trouble, I'm always near.]
[Whenever you feel alone, and you think everyone has given up...]
[Reach out for me, and I will give you my everlasting love.]
His deep voice seemed to possess a magical power to warm and soothe people's hearts.
Gu Weiwei's chaotic emotions finally calmed down at this moment, and she chuckled softly.
"Uncle Fu, I can't sleep at all if you keep saying this."
He said he'd read a passage, but he ended up reciting such a seductive love poem.
