After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

After the hug lasted for a few seconds, Fu Cheng let go of her hand.

He turned around, opened the trunk, and reached inside to take things out.

They didn't even offer a word of explanation for the hug they had just shared.

Lu Shiyi stood there blankly, his coat still draped over his arm.

It wasn't until Fu Cheng straightened up again with his things that Lu Shiyi spoke up to remind him, "Clothes."

Fu Cheng said calmly, "You can carry these for me. Also, please carry these two lighter ones. I'll take the rest."

As he spoke, he handed the items to Lu Shiyi, and then reached out to take the others.

Lu Shiyi didn't refuse and did as her husband arranged.

Regarding her husband's sudden hug, she wondered if it was because her parents were too loving, making him miss his own parents.

…………

A peaceful yet fulfilling weekend came to an end in the blink of an eye.

Monday arrived quietly, inevitable yet the least welcome day.

After all, life is short, but Mondays are long.

However, this didn't bother Lu Shiyi, who ran a study hall. Early in the morning, she drove to work full of energy.

Fu Cheng, who went out later, was in a completely different mental state.

So much so that when He Ze saw him at the company, he immediately noticed that he was different.

Fu Group, President's Office.

He Ze sat across from Fu Cheng's desk, glancing left and right, making Fu Cheng, who was working, furrow his brow in a deep frown.

Finally, he raised a cold gaze and asked, "Did I grow an extra nose or an extra eye over the weekend? Why are you looking at me like this?"

He Ze chuckled, "Old Fu, you're quite humorous."

Then, he tentatively asked, "Old Fu, are you having some trouble? Do you want me to help you out?"

He felt that his boss today seemed to have some unresolved worries etched on his brow.

And his intuition told him it definitely wasn't work-related.

Fu Cheng answered decisively, "No!"

Then, he lowered his eyes and continued reading the documents.

However, his resolute attitude lasted only half a minute before he lost his composure.

Fu Cheng gripped the pen tightly with his fair and slender fingers, and hesitated for a while before speaking: "Actually, it wouldn't hurt to chat with you for a bit."

Upon hearing this, He Ze instantly teleported to his boss's side and asked gossipily, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"

Seeing his amused expression, Fu Cheng immediately lost the urge to speak.

However, he does need someone to help him analyze the situation.

After hesitating for a while, Fu Cheng finally spoke.

He said, word by word, "I mean, what if you suddenly marry a stranger and hide your true identity..."

He Ze: "…………"

"Why don't you just give your full name? Why make up any 'what ifs'?"

Fu Cheng's handsome face instantly darkened. "I'm not saying anything more. Go get back to work."

"Hey, please, just tell me, I'll shut up, okay?"

He Ze quickly compromised, as it was rare for Lao Fu to open up, and he was now extremely curious.

Fu Cheng glared at him, but ultimately continued with the previous topic.

He said, "If you were to have a whirlwind marriage with a stranger and conceal your identity, under what circumstances would you take the initiative to come out and tell them?"

Upon hearing this, He Ze blurted out, "You're planning to tell your wife the truth?"

After saying that, he regretted it and slapped his mouth repeatedly, "Pah, pah, pah, I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about myself. When am I going to tell my wife the truth? Let me think about it..."

He Ze propped his head up with his hand, looking like he was thinking very seriously.

After a moment, he spoke again: "Let me explain it to you like this. The reason I chose to hide my identity was because my marriage partner was a stranger. I didn't know her. I had to investigate her character before making a decision."

Fu Cheng, sitting opposite him, nodded firmly. "And then?"

"Then, then I'd better sign an agreement with her. What if she's a scheming woman? Wouldn't I be a sucker? Especially if she cheats on me or something, how aggrieved I would be."

Fu Cheng frowned. "There's no need to analyze it in such detail!"

Then he asked, "And then what?"

He Ze replied, "If she were a scheming woman, we could have parted ways immediately, and it wouldn't matter whether I confessed or not."

"What if it isn't?" Fu Cheng asked with slight concern.

"If not?" He Ze chuckled.

"Then here comes the key point: if she's not a scheming woman, it means she doesn't want my status or money. In that case, my lying to her and hiding my identity would be the greatest insult to her character. Sigh, then I'm in a difficult situation."

Fu Cheng leaned forward and asked, "So what do you plan to do?"

He Ze thought for a moment, "At this point, the timing of my confession depends on the depth of the relationship between the two of us."

"How to say?"

He Ze glanced at his friend and replied, "The lower the emotional foundation, the higher the risk of being honest."

Seeing that Fu Cheng didn't seem to understand, he gave him a special explanation.

"Women value feelings the most. If she loves you and knows you've been hiding something, she might eventually choose to forgive you emotionally. But if she doesn't have feelings for you, it might be a completely different story, and she might just dump you."

Fu Cheng frowned upon hearing this, and after a long silence, he said, "What if she hates being lied to or kept in the dark the most? Shouldn't she be more honest as soon as possible?"

He Ze shook his head and said, "If she has no feelings for you, you'll only be dumped even faster!"

Fu Cheng: "..."

When it comes to issues involving men and women, it is indeed a bit beyond his expertise.

Fu Cheng looked at his friend and asked one last time, "Is it really as you say?"

He Ze nodded firmly, "You can try it if you don't believe me."

Fu Cheng's face darkened instantly. "What do you mean, 'try'? You're not talking about me."

He Ze nodded in agreement, "It wasn't you, it wasn't you."

He even felt that Lao Fu was insulting his intelligence, asking so bluntly, yet he still stubbornly insisted that it wasn't him.

After listening to his friend's words, Fu Cheng fell into deep thought once again.

It wasn't that he was worried about the exaggerated dumping his friend mentioned; he felt that with his charm, it shouldn't be that bad.

He asked his friend about this today because he didn't want to keep worrying about whether or not to continue hiding it from his wife.

After all, based on his current investigation, he can be fairly certain that his wife is not the scheming woman he initially thought she was.

Based on He Ze's analysis, he felt that until the question of whether the two would live together for a long time was resolved, it seemed that he had no choice but to continue to keep it a secret.

In his view, there was no deep affection between him and his wife at the moment.

Therefore, now is not a good time for him to reveal his identity...
