Jiang Yilai suffered too much discrimination from childhood and was ostracized by the Jiang family. Even after marrying into the Fu family, she still had to be mindful of Fu Nanxiao's feelings.
If she had been more assertive and had her own opinions back then, she wouldn't have been forced to have an abortion just because she listened to Fu Nanxiao's arrangements.
Now she has her own career and thoughts, and is no longer the Jiang Yilai who could be bullied by others.
Even though she was fully aware that her feelings for Fu Nanxiao were no longer her everything.
It was precisely because of this that Fu Nanxiao was wary of her.
He also knew very well that it wouldn't be easy to hold onto Jiang Yilai in front of him.
"You're already quite well-known, and I believe that soon you'll be a respected lawyer."
"This is my goal, just you wait and see."
"I believe you can do it."
"I believe it too."
She has put in so much effort and endured so much hardship; she is bound to reach great heights.
Around noon, Gu Nianqiang called to say that Mei Yin had been rescued and was now resting in a regular ward.
After hanging up the phone, Fu Nanxiao asked for her opinion.
"She's awake. Do you want to go up and check on her?"
Jiang Yilai shook her head: "It's good that she's awake. She must be feeling down right now, so it's better not to see her."
Fu Nanxiao agreed: "You have an important case tomorrow, so don't think about these things. I'll take you back to the law firm."
“You have a lot of things to do at your company, and you’ve already spent half a day with me. Won’t that affect your work?” Jiang Yilai had urged him to go back several times, but Fu Nanxiao refused.
She knew very well how stubborn this person was; unless he was willing to leave on his own, no one could make him go.
Fu Nanxiao took her hand and led her to the garage. "Spending time with your girlfriend is the most important thing. Everything else is secondary."
Jiang Yilai was both amused and exasperated: "I really didn't realize that you, President Fu, were still so love-struck."
Fu Nanxiao looked surprised. "You're only finding out now? Isn't that a bit late?"
Jiang Yilai shrugged: "I feel it's just right, this way it's easier to control you."
Fu Nanxiao laughed even more heartily: "I've already been captivated by you. Do whatever you want."
They smiled at each other, and their hearts drew closer without them even realizing it.
The atmosphere in Myne's ward wasn't so pleasant.
She woke up in tears, and Grandma Gu stayed by her side to comfort her.
Mayne sobbed, "Grandma, after you know these things, will you stop loving me?"
Grandma Gu held her hand and said, "Silly girl, your family won't look down on you or hate you because of these things. On the contrary, I feel even more guilty."
As she spoke, Grandma Gu choked up, covered her mouth, and looked at the poor child with tears streaming down her face.
Thinking about all the suffering she had endured in the past, which her family knew nothing about, they were deeply saddened.
"It was my mistake that I lost your mother back then, otherwise... otherwise you and your mother wouldn't have had to suffer like this."
Mayne sobbed, “Grandma, it’s not your fault. Mom said that I got lost by accident back then and forgot my family because of a serious illness. After she passed away, I was sent to an orphanage, and my adoptive mother took me back.”
Grandma Gu stroked her face tenderly, "I'm so sorry you had to suffer, child. Why didn't you tell us about these things sooner?"
Mei said pitifully, "I don't want my family to know about those bad things, so as not to make you sad and upset, and I don't want anyone to pity me."
