After meeting with Yuan Shuo and returning to the hotel, Fu Hanzheng called right on time.
Gu Weiwei looked at the caller ID on her phone, hesitated for a few seconds, and then answered the call.
"Hello."
"Is the work finished?" Fu Hanzheng asked.
Gu Weiwei paused for a moment, then replied.
"Yeah, I just got back."
"Grandma and the others sent you some food; it will be delivered tomorrow," Fu Hanzheng instructed.
"Okay," Gu Weiwei replied.
Fu Hanzheng remained silent for a moment before speaking.
"It's getting late, you should get some rest."
"You too, goodnight," Gu Weiwei said.
Fu Hanzheng: "Good night."
"Wait a minute," Gu Weiwei called out again before the other party hung up.
Fu Hanzheng: "Anything else?"
Gu Weiwei pursed her lips and pondered for a few seconds before speaking in a low voice.
"And... I love you."
Fu Hanzheng's voice seemed a little lighter, "I know, get some rest."
The two then ended the call. Gu Weiwei sat on the sofa with her phone in her hand, her heart filled with turbulent emotions.
She assumed that since he had gone to see Yuan Shuo and asked about that matter today, he must be calling to ask her something as well.
Unexpectedly, he never asked a single question about it.
Tianshui Villa, Beijing.
Fu Shiqin, who was working together in the study, glanced at his older brother who had just hung up the phone.
"He's been looking grumpy ever since he came back from visiting the set. Did he have a fight with his wife?"
"No." Fu Hanzheng buried himself in his work.
However, everything he had learned from Yuan Shuo that morning had left him somewhat confused.
Fu Shiqin looked incredulous. "No, you didn't even call your sister-in-law as cheerful as before."
"I was only gone for one night, and you handled the work so poorly. Should I be happy?"
Fu Hanzheng, without changing his expression, attributed the fault that had affected his mood to Fu Shiqin's poor work performance.
"..."
Okay, it's my fault again.
"By the way, what have you been asking Raymond to investigate about your sister-in-law lately? Dad's asking me about it."
"It's nothing," Fu Hanzheng said coldly.
Fu Shiqin glanced at his older brother. "It's nothing. You wouldn't want us to know?"
Fu Hanzheng gave the curious person a cold look. "You're very curious?"
Fu Shiqin shrank back under the intense gaze of his own brother and said weakly.
"...It's because Dad is curious."
Fu Hanzheng lowered his eyes and continued working, not intending to pay him any attention.
However, Fu Shiqin was filled with curiosity and tentatively asked.
"Could it be... that another pretty boy is trying to seduce our sister-in-law?"
After much thought, his brother wanted to investigate his sister-in-law, but it was something he couldn't bring himself to tell them. The only way to find out was for someone else to cheat on him.
Fu Hanzheng coldly looked up at him for a few seconds, "How about you go and oversee the undersea tunnel project?"
Fu Shiqin realized he had guessed right; his brother was furious and embarrassed.
So, they turned to offering advice and strategies.
"Brother, dealing with pretty boys like this..."
Fu Hanzheng: "I'll go tomorrow."
"Brother, please let me finish, brother..."
Fu Shiqin didn't expect him to turn on him so quickly. He didn't want to go and oversee the undersea tunnel project; there was no good food there, and he didn't want to go.
However, his older brother completely ignored his protests.
Fu Shiqin finished his work and left with a bitter face.
Fu Hanzheng dialed Raymond's number and gave instructions.
"You don't need to investigate her matter anymore."
Raymond was somewhat surprised, but he didn't ask any further questions.
"OK."
"Don't tell anyone in the Fu family except me," Fu Hanzheng specifically instructed.
Now that they've already inquired, they'll be extra careful if the investigation continues.
Since Yuan Shuo said she would tell him herself, he would wait for her to speak.
