"It's nothing, I'm tired." Xu Qinghuan dodged his hand that tried to grab her wrist. "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Secretary Lin was caught between the two, feeling helpless and unsure of what to say.

Fu Yanshi glanced at him with his dark eyes and said in a deep voice, "Go back and rest first, Secretary Lin."

"it is good."

After everyone else left, Xu Qinghuan went into the bedroom alone.

Fu Yanshi stood in the entryway for a while before slowly walking over and gently pushing open the door.

The person on the bed was already lying down, still wearing her clothes, with her eyes closed, and it was hard to tell if she was really asleep.

After a brief pause, Fu Yanshi was about to leave and send someone to investigate what had happened to Xu Qinghuan at the hospital when suddenly, Xu Qinghuan called out to him!

"When Fu Yanshi arrived, I told him I was tired."

"...Then you rest, I won't bother you. I'll sleep in the guest room tonight."

Xu Qinghuan sat up in bed, looking at him intently. Her lips moved several times, but she couldn't say anything.

Fu Yanshi walked back, took a deep breath, and said, "Or, should I call the doctor over to take a look at you?"

“The kind of tiredness I’m talking about isn’t the kind that you can get over with a good night’s sleep.” Xu Qinghuan subconsciously avoided his gaze and lowered her eyes. “Today I went to see my mother and found that Nie Zhisen and she got along very well. My mother was also very happy. She has always hoped that I could be with Nie Zhisen, instead of trying to climb up to your Fu family.”

"……What's the meaning?"

“Fu Yanshi, the reason I didn’t agree to Nie Zhisen before was because you can give me more in terms of work and career. If I were with Nie Zhisen, he could only give me a relatively comfortable life, which wouldn’t help my future. But now I suddenly feel that it’s tiring to always look up to you and your Fu family.”

Fu Yanshi stopped talking and just stared straight at her, his gaze unwavering.

She didn't have the courage to look at his face at that moment, so she could only clench her fists silently and finish what she was saying.

"So, I don't want to continue—"

"Xu Qinghuan!" Fu Yanshi suddenly interrupted, "I won't let you continue! Tell me the truth, what exactly happened? What did my parents say to you?"

"Does that even need asking? Of course they told me I'm not worthy to marry you, not worthy to be the daughter-in-law of the Fu family! What else could they say?" Xu Qinghuan feigned meanness and shrewishness, her delicate eyebrows furrowed. "I really hate their haughty attitude, as if I have to marry their son! But in fact, weren't you the one who deliberately lied to me? Ha, what Fu family? I don't care! If I marry Nie Zhisen, at least his parents won't treat me like this."

Fu Yanshi stared at the woman's small face as if he didn't recognize her.

How could such words possibly come from her mouth...?

"In your eyes, the difference between marrying me and marrying Nie Zhisen is merely a matter of weighing reality and interests?"

"Otherwise what? Fu Yanshi, I wasn't interested in you when I was in school. Did you suddenly become interested after graduation? You're so naive!" Xu Qinghuan scoffed. "If you weren't the president of Fu's Group, if you couldn't pay for my mother's medical treatment, I wouldn't have contacted you again after I lost my virginity to you for the first time!"

That mocking laugh was tantamount to throwing Fu Yanshi's self-esteem underfoot and trampling it.

Xu Qinghuan thought he would be very angry, and might even impulsively scold her!

but.

Nothing at all.

The air in the bedroom seemed to freeze suddenly. Neither of them spoke until the redness in the corners of his eyes rose, and he said in a trembling voice, "I don't believe it."
