Throughout the journey, Gu Weiwei remained silent, her clasped hands nervously twisting her fingers.
Clearly, they are making some very difficult decision.
Fu Hanzheng noticed, but didn't ask her anything and drove on in silence.
He could guess what she wanted to talk about, so he was mentally prepared to listen to everything she had to say.
However, when she actually spoke, everything far exceeded his expectations.
Although it was quite a distance from the Fu family's old house back to the Tianshui villa, the two of them arrived home in an hour.
The two of them took the things out of the car and brought them home.
After putting everything away, Gu Weiwei asked the person resting on the sofa.
"What would you like to drink?"
"Tea." Fu Hanzheng took off his suit jacket and loosened his tie.
Gu Weiwei brewed two cups of tea and placed them on the coffee table.
Fu Hanzheng reached out and called out, "Come here."
Gu Weiwei sat down beside him and was immediately pulled into his arms, where a gentle kiss landed on her forehead.
“Weiwei, if there’s something we need to talk about that’s really hard for you to talk about, you don’t have to tell me,” Fu Hanzheng said in a low voice.
At first, he was indeed very curious about what she was hiding from him.
But seeing how anxious she was on the way back, I suddenly felt relieved.
She's already by his side, about to marry him, so why should he put her in such a difficult position just because of a moment's curiosity?
“No, I should tell you, and I must tell you,” Gu Weiwei said resolutely.
Even if she doesn't tell him today, Gu Siting will tell him in the future.
She didn't want him to know that secret in such a cruel way.
Fu Hanzheng released her hand, smoothed her hair, and said gently.
"Okay, go ahead."
Gu Weiwei nervously fidgeted with her fingers and said.
"Haven't you always wanted to know what my connection is with the Gu family, and what my relationship is with Gu Weiwei?"
"Why do I know Yuan Shuo, and why am I helping them investigate Gu Weiwei's affairs?"
...
Fu Hanzheng reached out and grasped her uneasy hand, noticing the tremor in her voice, and interrupted her with heartache.
"Weiwei, there's no need to say anything."
“Fu Hanzheng, let me continue. This is the answer you need to know,” Gu Weiwei said firmly.
Fu Hanzheng sighed, "But... you're very sad."
Gu Weiwei pursed her lips, looked at his hand, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down.
“Fu Hanzheng, you don’t know… I’ve been lying to you for a long time.”
From the moment he started looking for Gu Weiwei, she had already been lying to him.
He watched as she painstakingly tried to find out the true relationship between her and the Gu family, but because she and Gu Weiwei were completely different people, he missed the truth.
Fu Hanzheng chuckled, "What did you lie to me about?"
However, his gaze involuntarily darkened.
Gu Weiwei lowered her eyes, not daring to look him in the eye, and spoke to herself.
"Why did I become a different person after you kicked me out of the Fu family?"
Why do I always have this inexplicable relationship with the Gu family?
"Why did Gu Siting come to me? You've been curious about these questions countless times and investigated them, but you've never been able to find the real answer."
...
Fu Hanzheng's expression was deep and somber as he looked at the person who was speaking with his head down.
"Yes, I've never understood why."
Gu Weiwei took a deep breath, slowly raised her head to look at him, and the moment their eyes met, tears welled up in her eyes.
"Because I am not Mu Weiwei, I am Gu Weiwei."
