Chapter 232: Sleeping
When they went back to the hotel, there was very little time left before their flight took off.
They packed up in their own rooms and joined the crew members before they all headed towards the airport together.
Since Li Xing’er was not allowed to tag along to the Gu Family’s mansion, she had not shown a nice expression towards them at all.
When Fu s.h.i.+yi was waiting for the boarding call, he whispered to her in a low voice, “How did you meet Gu Siting last time, anyways?”
Whatever Gu Siting did today was not normal at all; she was also not behaving normally today either.
Instead of concealing anything from him, she said straightforwardly, “They were trying to catch someone last night but took me instead. Then I called Jolin and asked him to pick me up from there.”
“Oh d.a.m.n! Why didn’t you tell me anything? It was serious!” Fu s.h.i.+yi said furiously.
“So you can tell your brother too?” Gu Weiwei squinted at him.
Fu s.h.i.+yi touched his nose guiltily and asked, “How do you plan to tell my brother about it?”
Gu Weiwei said, “I’ll tell him the truth.”
Lying to Fu Hanzheng was not going to work – he was going to find out about it by himself, anyways.
So telling the truth from the start was the best solution.
Fu s.h.i.+yi reminded her. “You said that you will deal with my brother if he gets angry.”
Gu Weiwei nodded nonchalantly and said, “I know, you can tell him now.”
“Then I will…”
Gu Weiwei glanced at Fu s.h.i.+yi and pleaded with him, “Can you leave me alone for a second?”
Fu s.h.i.+yi pursed his lips, picked up his phone and called his brother to tell him about what had happened.
Gu Weiwei put on her sungla.s.ses, leaned against the chair and felt very troubled.
That was a place she had lived in for more than twenty years and of course the return had stirred something up inside her.
She no longer owned a s.p.a.ce in that house.
She might not hate Gu Siting, but she did feel saddened.
They waited for more than an hour before boarding the plane, to go back home.
She had been feeling very nervous after meeting Gu Siting and Ling Yan at the Shengxi Town film festival but she did not feel relaxed for a moment, even after returning and joining the crew members.
When they came to the hotel, Fu s.h.i.+yi was still staying next to her.
Before they reached their respective doors, he reminded her again.
“You said that you will deal with him, don’t drag me down.”
His brother did not sound very pleased when they were exchanging words at the airport.
The moment Gu Weiwei entered the room, she locked the door and felt so relieved that she no longer had to be on edge.
She did not come back to herself until she had sat on the sofa for a long time.
She had thought that Fu Hanzheng would call her and lecture her after he learnt the news but no call had come even past midnight.
So he was really p.i.s.sed then?
She could not fall asleep and instead picked up the phone, wondering if she should make a phone call to him and explain.
After all, if she had taken his advice and left at lunchtime, the incident that happened later on that night would not have happened.
What was more, they did not tell him a single thing until they had left.
After a long time of contemplation, she still made the phone call.
The call had just gone through when the doorbell rang.
“Fu Hanzheng, wait a moment, someone is at the door.”
She said with a quiet voice, she rolled off the bed and headed towards the door.
When she opened the door, the person on the other side turned out to be the n.o.ble-looking man she was talking to on the phone; he was holding his phone by his ear.
Gu Weiwei blinked in astonishment. “What… are you doing here?”
Fu Hanzheng ended the call and entered the room.
“I came to keep you company in bed.”
