The night was deep and the wind was biting.
A car speeding towards her in the black car braked suddenly and stopped not far from her.
As soon as the car stopped, Fu Hanzheng, dressed in a black trench coat, got out and strode up to her.
“Why didn’t you answer the phone?”
Gu Weiwei stared in astonishment at the person who appeared in front of her. After a long while, she realized that it was Kuroda Keiko who had tipped them off and had even pretended to have an upset stomach to buy them time.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have arrived so quickly, and they wouldn't have known she was going to leave from here.
Feeling a little guilty under Fu Hanzheng's gaze, she looked down at her toes and remained silent.
Fu Hanzheng took off his trench coat and draped it over her shoulders, then asked again.
“Why didn’t you answer the phone?”
"I was driving, I didn't hear you," Gu Weiwei made an excuse.
She dared not answer, nor did she dare tell him that she was going back to take care of her family.
She was afraid that telling him would make her leave even more difficult, and would also make him sad.
Of course she didn't want to leave him, didn't want him to be sad or heartbroken for her, but... while their separation would certainly be sad, losing Youyou was even more painful for her.
There will always be a time when we meet again after parting, but if she loses Youyou, she will truly regret it for the rest of her life.
“We’ve gotten new clues out of that person, we…” Fu Hanzheng said.
Gu Weiwei pursed her lips and shook her head, "There's no time. I have to go to the Gu family before dawn tomorrow."
Tomorrow, when it gets light, will be the three days Gu Siting mentioned. Even though she hates him to the core, Youyou is in his hands, so he has no choice but to go back.
Fu Hanzheng felt as if his heart was being torn apart. "When did this happen?"
He had been so busy searching for his son these past few days that he hadn't even noticed when Gu Siting had approached her.
Gu Weiwei remained silent for a while before telling the truth.
“He sent me a video of Youyou the day before yesterday.”
Now that he's tracked her down this far, he must have guessed why she wanted to leave.
Fu Hanzheng looked down at her and reached out to tidy her wind-blown hair.
"You should have told me."
No wonder she's been working tirelessly these past two days to help find Youyou, and no wonder she was so emotionally distraught and broke down when she found out the child wasn't Youyou when she met the family this morning.
Gu Weiwei didn't want to explain the issue any further, so she took a deep breath and said calmly.
“He wants me to be back at the Gu family before dawn tomorrow. For Youyou’s sake, I have to go back.”
Fu Hanzheng remained silent, his heart heavy. He didn't want her to leave, and he didn't want to go back to that damned Gu family.
However, the child was not found, and he couldn't bring himself to ask her to stay, knowing that nothing he said would make her stay.
“His target is me. If I don’t go back, I don’t know what he might do to Youyou.” Gu Weiwei didn’t dare to look at Fu Hanzheng’s expression at that moment, and calmly stated her considerations with her head down, “If I go, I can get more information about Youyou. I will have Huizi find a way to inform you. As soon as Youyou is found, I will immediately find a way to come back…”
Fu Hanzheng reached out and hugged her, his voice trembling slightly.
"I'm sorry, Vivi..."
He tried his best to protect her and the child, but he still couldn't protect them, forcing her to face such a painful choice.
Gu Weiwei gently shook her head in his arms, "It's not your fault."
Gu Siting was scheming and they couldn't guard against him.
Even without this incident, as long as he doesn't give up, he will definitely look for other opportunities to strike. They can guard against him for a while, but not forever.
