Tears welled up in Fang Jing Shu's eyes as she sniffled, trying hard not to let them fall. "I... I don't know," she stammered.
Li Wenbo looked at Fang Jing Shu, who was on the verge of crying, and felt a pang of guilt. He cursed himself for being so blunt. His earlier words had indeed been harsh. He sighed and softened his tone. "Fang Jing Shu, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be harsh with you."
He reached out and took her hand, feeling its icy chill, which made his heart ache even more. "I'm just a bit worried about you. I'm afraid she might deceive you. You know what I've been through with Dai Xinyi and Zhang Tian; I'm a bit on edge now, always feeling like those women have ulterior motives."
Fang Jing Shu sniffled again, tears spilling down her cheeks despite her efforts to hold them back. "I know... I know it's pointless. But I just feel sorry for her being alone and wanted to be nice to her."
Li Wenbo gently wiped the tears from her face and said softly, "I understand your good intentions, but you can't really know someone's heart just by looking at their face. Especially with women like Wu Junhui; if you're kind to her, she might not appreciate it and could even turn against you."
He pulled Fang Jing Shu into his embrace, gently patting her back. "It's okay now, don't cry. It's my fault for losing my temper. I'll be more mindful of my words in the future; I won't do that again."
Leaning against him, Fang Jing Shu gradually stopped crying. She sniffed again and murmured, "Actually, I'm a bit scared."
Li Wenbo was taken aback and asked, "Scared of what?"
"I'm afraid... I'm afraid that she might take you away," Fang Jing Shu's voice was soft but pierced Li Wenbo's heart like a needle.
He held her tightly and spoke firmly, "Silly girl, how could she take me away? My heart only belongs to you; I will never leave you in this lifetime."
Fang Jing Shu looked up at him, her eyes still glistening with tears. "Really?"
Li Wenbo cupped her face and gently kissed her forehead. "Yes, more real than gold."
They lingered in each other's warmth for a while before Fang Jing Shu's emotions began to settle down. Li Wenbo stood up to clear the dishes while Fang Jing Shu went to brew some tea.
Suddenly remembering something, Fang Jing Shu asked, "By the way, didn't Wu Junhui say she used to be Zhang Tian's ex-girlfriend?"
Li Wenbo responded with a dismissive grunt. "She claims Zhang Tian abandoned her after using her; now she wants revenge."
"Revenge?" Fang Jing Shu frowned. "How does she plan to get revenge?"
Li Wenbo scoffed lightly. "By trying to seduce me. She thinks that will make Zhang Tian suffer; it's just childish and ridiculous."
Fang Jing Shu fell silent for a moment before saying, "I don't think she's doing it just for revenge against Zhang Tian."
While washing the dishes, Li Wenbo replied, "Not for revenge? Then what is it for? Surely she doesn't actually have feelings for me? With her character, she wouldn't even be worthy of carrying my shoes."
Fang Jing Shu remained quiet; she couldn't shake the feeling that Wu Junhui's gaze towards Li Wenbo was off—more than just simple seduction or revenge; it felt more like an obsession?
