That night was exhausting.
By the time it ended, Su Wan was in a half-asleep state, vaguely feeling Fu Weiheng carrying her into the bathroom to wash her.
Her whole body ached, and she was too weak to lift a hand, so she let him do as he pleased.
When they came out of the bathroom, Su Wan had already fallen deeply asleep in his arms. He glanced at the girl in front of him, breathing steadily, and lightly placed her on the bed, then crawled in beside her, holding her tightly against his chest.
He gently pressed his cheek against her forehead, feeling an unshakable flutter in his heart at that moment.
Finally, his wish had come true.
The next morning, just as dawn broke, Su Wan woke up.
As she opened her eyes and tried to move, a sharp pain shot through her body. Frowning, she looked down at the two bare bodies under the blanket and the arm draped across her waist. Memories of last night flooded back into her mind.
Suddenly, her face turned red.
The person in front of her was still asleep. With his eyes closed, his long lashes cast shadows on his cheeks. His thick eyebrows were like ink, and his straight nose and strong features were captivating no matter how you looked at him.
She shifted closer and gently placed a kiss on his lips.
However, before she could pull away, the strength of the arm around her waist tightened suddenly. With a soft gasp from her lips and a quick turn, she found herself pinned beneath him.
Fu Weiheng was a light sleeper; he had already woken up when she leaned in. The kiss brought clarity not only to his mind but also to certain parts of his body.
He hovered over her, his eyes clouded with emotions that were hard to read. Slowly leaning down, he gently bit her rounded earlobe and whispered hoarsely in her ear, "Guan Guan, the plan for the day is made in the morning."
"..."
Sumerian Feeling embarrassed, someone lowered their body and began the "plan of the day" for this morning.
...
This time seemed to last even longer than the last, and by the time it ended, the sky was already bright.
Su Wan felt as if her entire body was falling apart. Fu Weiheng was nestled in her neck, still inside her and not pulling away. Su Wan moved slightly, blushing as she raised her hand to push him away, saying, "You... go out."
Fu Weiheng raised the corner of his mouth and kissed her again before slowly pulling away and lying down beside her.
Su Wan lay on her back and turned her head to look at him, suddenly asking very calmly, "Neil... did you always know she was my mother?"
Fu Weiheng paused for a moment; his eyes, which had just closed, slowly opened. He feared that she would be angry and hesitated for a while before gently nodding and saying, "I only found out recently."
Su Wan turned to face him: "So the School Forum incident... was it Jiang Lawyer who did it?"
He nodded again.
"That's surprising." Su Wan sighed with a smile, "So Jiang Lawyer is actually my cousin..."
Fu Weiheng glanced at her and then reached out to hold her, speaking lightly: "If you don't like it, you don't have to acknowledge it."
Su Wan was taken aback and replied with a soft "Hmm": "I don't reject it."
Fu Weiheng: "Okay, it's all up to you."
Last night was their first time together, and after this morning's ordeal, both were extremely exhausted.
In the large room, it was so quiet that one could almost hear a pin drop. Just as Fu Weiheng was half-asleep with his eyes closed, a soft voice suddenly came from his arms.
"Neil..." she said, "I don't blame her anymore..."
He kept his eyes closed, a smile unconsciously tugging at the corners of his mouth as he softly responded to her heart, "Hmm... okay."
---
When he woke up again, it was already noon.
The sound of the shower could be heard from the bathroom. Su Wan propped herself up and took a while to gather herself before reaching down to pick up the nightgown that Fu Weiheng had thrown on the floor last night, putting it back on.
As she lifted the covers to get out of bed, her gaze caught a glimpse of a small patch of red stains on the sheets. Her ears flushed with heat, and she quickly lifted the blanket to cover it up.
The bathroom door swung open, and Fu Weiheng emerged wrapped in a towel, his toned abs visible above the towel. Su Wan instinctively lowered her gaze, planning to bypass him and head into the bathroom. However, the man stepped forward and leaned against the wall, blocking her path with his long arm.
With his bare torso and a lazy smile on his face, he looked at her in a way that made Su Wan feel captivated.
This was bad; she was truly losing her mind...
Leaning slightly closer, he asked in a meaningful tone by her ear, "Are you satisfied?"
Su Wan's face instantly turned red. She glared at him and angrily retorted, "Pervert!" Then she pushed him aside and slipped into the bathroom.
Fu Weiheng chuckled softly. After getting dressed by the bed, he casually picked up his phone.
The screen displayed several WeChat message notifications from Qin Mu. He opened them to take a look—
Qin Mu: Brother-in-law! My mom wants you to come for dinner!
Qin Mu: She said for my sister to bring you home for dinner!
Fu Weiheng raised an eyebrow but didn't reply, thoughtfully exiting the chat interface.
When Su Wan finished washing up and came out, the lunch that Fu Weiheng had ordered was already delivered.
She glanced at the table full of dishes and said, "Can you finish all this..."
Fu Weiheng lightly replied, "Hmm," with a double meaning, "Eat more, you've worked hard."
Su Wan remained silent.
Halfway through the meal, Su Wan's phone, which she had tossed onto the bed, suddenly buzzed. She swallowed a mouthful of rice and hurriedly tried to get up to grab her phone, but Fu Weiheng was already one step ahead. He stood up and gestured for her to sit, then walked over to fetch her phone.
Taking the phone, she saw the caller ID displaying "Aunt." Su Wan almost choked on the mouthful of rice she had in her mouth and quickly took a sip of warm water before answering, "Hello... Aunt."
On the other end, Su Yue's tone was as usual: "Guan Guan, when are you coming back?"
Su Wan glanced at the person across from her who was calmly eating and nervously replied, "I should be back after dinner."
Su Yue paused for a moment and then said, "I heard Qin Yan say you have a friend visiting Yishi? Are you bringing him back for dinner tonight?"
Su Wan was taken aback and stammered after a long pause, "Aunt, actually... it's Fu Weiheng who came to Yishi..."
There was a clear pause on the other end before she asked, "Is that your boyfriend?"
Su Wan lowered her gaze and replied softly, "Yeah..."
Su Yue laughed cheerfully, "Then bring him back for dinner tonight. I'll go buy groceries with your uncle later. You should spend some time with him this afternoon."
Before Su Wan could respond, Su Yue had already hung up.
Su Wan sighed and quietly ate a few more bites of rice. Then she cautiously glanced at Fu Weiheng and tentatively asked, "Do you... want to come home with me for a bit?"
His response was, "I couldn't ask for more."
Su Wan: "..."
After lunch, under someone's strong insistence, Su Wan accompanied them to the mall.
When Su Wan entered a men's clothing store with Fu Weiheng, she awkwardly tugged at his sleeve and said, "Neil, my aunt and uncle are very easygoing, and it's just a meal..."
Fu Weiheng glanced at her with a gentle expression and replied, "Guan Guan, for me, this is not just a meal. Also, first impressions are very important."
Su Wan lightly bit her lip in embarrassment and said, "Oh..."
After picking out some clothes, the two of them visited a nearby delicacy shop. After selecting various gifts, they finally set off on their way back to New Lake Community.
Cayenne stopped in front of the building where Su Wan lived. They each got out of the car, retrieved some items from the trunk, and waited for the elevator.
Fu Weiheng had been quiet throughout the journey. Su Wan was used to his few words and didn't think much of it. However, once they entered the elevator, he suddenly turned to her with a tense expression and asked, "Guan Guan, am I okay like this?"
Su Wan was taken aback for a moment. She looked at him; he was wearing a dark gray long suit with a white pointed collar shirt underneath and finely tailored black trousers that perfectly complemented his long legs. He looked very dashing and refreshed.
So Su Wan nodded and said, "You look handsome."
After a long pause, Su Wan suddenly realized something and asked, "Are you nervous, Neil?"
Nervous enough to not say anything during the ride?
The elevator door opened with a ding, and they stepped out to stand in front of the door adorned with the character for fortune. Fu Weiheng sighed helplessly and smiled, saying, "A little. I'm thinking about how to propose to your family."
Su Wan pretended not to hear him as she blushed and took out her keys to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, everyone except Qin Yan turned their heads toward the entrance, their faces filled with eager anticipation.
Qin Mu jumped up from the sofa and immediately spotted the tall and handsome figure behind Su Wan. His tone was filled with excitement as he exclaimed, "Hello, brother-in-law!"
Upon hearing the name Fu Weiheng, one could immediately tell that the petite girl in front of him was Qin Mu, so he smiled and replied, "Hello."
Su Wan proactively stepped aside, allowing Fu Weiheng to fully present himself to everyone...
There was an inexplicable feeling of observing a national treasure...
Su Yue and Old Qin had already walked over from the restaurant. Su Yue was grinning widely, "You must be Xiao Fu, right? Guan Guan has mentioned you to us. Come on in and have a seat."
Fu Weiheng smiled politely and greeted them, "Hello, Uncle and Auntie. I am Fu Weiheng."
Old Qin nodded at him with a smile, "Hello."
He then handed over the various gift bags he was holding, saying, "Just some small items, nothing much."
Su Yue glanced at the tags on the bags and was taken aback. She said, "We're all family here; just coming for dinner is enough. Bringing such expensive gifts is too much."
Fu Weiheng replied, "It's only right."
Su Yue gestured for him to go to the living room, "You all sit down first; the food isn't finished yet, so you'll have to wait a bit longer."
Fu Weiheng smiled, "Alright, thank you for your hard work."
He was already quite handsome, and with that smile, he looked even more charming. Even Su Yue, despite her age, couldn't help but feel flustered. She quickly asked Qin Yan and Qin Mu to take care of him before retreating into the kitchen.
Old Qin entered the kitchen ahead of her and was quietly chopping raw meat when he saw Su Yue walk in with a beaming smile. He couldn't help but tease her, "Look at how happy you are."
Su Yue walked over to the sink to wash vegetables and happily said to Old Qin, "Oh my, this boy is really great! Not only does he look good, but he's also polite. Plus, it seems like he particularly likes our Guan Guan."
Old Qin chuckled and teased her back, "You can tell all that?"
Su Yue replied seriously, "Did you not see those gifts he brought? They must add up to at least seven or eight thousand yuan. If he didn't value our Guan Guan, would he spend so much money?"
Old Qin said, "Their family doesn't lack money, so why would they care about this little amount?"
Su Yue shot him a glance and replied, "Tsk, just because they're rich doesn't mean their money isn't money. They earned it through hard work!"
"Alright, alright, you're right. I'll go with what you say," Old Qin conceded helplessly, then added with a hint of jealousy, "I see, you just think they're good-looking!"
Su Yue raised her tone slightly and said, "Hey, that's basically true!"
Old Qin: "…………"
In the living room.
Qin Yan was leisurely leaning on the sofa watching TV, while Fu Weiheng sat beside him. Qin Mu was talking to Su Wan nearby. Fu Weiheng glanced at the monotonous entertainment news on TV and didn't rush to speak to Qin Yan, so he took out his phone to play a game.
As soon as he opened the game interface, a WeChat message from Jiang Zhi Yan popped up at the top of the screen—
[Jiang: Come out for drinks.]
[Neil: Not free.]
[Jiang: Now that Guan Guan is gone, aren't you just a lonely person? What else can you be busy with???]
[Neil: Proposing.]
[Jiang: ……]
After this brief chat ended, Fu Weiheng returned to the game interface.
Beside him, Qin Yan seemed a bit restless. He glanced at his phone screen and asked in a low voice, "How long have you been with my sister?"
Fu Weiheng paused his finger on the screen, raised an eyebrow nonchalantly, and replied, "Three months."
Qin Yan squinted his eyes and asked, "Are you serious?"
Fu Weiheng had already turned off his phone and glanced at him with a stern expression. "More serious than ever."
Qin Yan nodded in satisfaction, patted him on the shoulder, and smirked mischievously. "Alright, then call me 'brother,' and I'll agree to your matter."
Fu Weiheng replied coldly, "Hmph..."
Qin Yan was momentarily speechless.
Fu Weiheng shot him a cold glare. "Do you think our matter has anything to do with whether you agree or not?"
Qin Yan thought to himself, "Damn! He's about to become my brother-in-law, and he can't even control him?"
As for the matter between Qin Yan and Fu Weiheng, it was merely a business collaboration from two years ago. At that time, Qin Yan's company was on the right track and thriving, and he needed a large order from a big company to help expand his business. Coincidentally, the president of Endless that year was Fu Weiheng.
When they first met, Qin Yan saw a young president and thought he must be inexperienced, so he deliberately raised the price by ten percent. To his surprise, Fu Weiheng seemed well-prepared; knowing Qin Yan urgently needed a large order, he immediately proposed to lower the price by five percent from what Qin Yan originally offered, leaving him with no other choice.
Qin Yan had no choice but to agree since Endless Group was top-notch globally. Although his company eventually received returns eight percent higher than he initially estimated, he still couldn't forget how this younger Fu Weiheng had outmaneuvered him back then.
At that time, when he saw a photo of Su Wan with Fu Weiheng on social media, he had some suspicions about whether it was indeed him. But upon seeing them together in person, it turned out to be true.
However, given how much Fu Weiheng cared for Su Wan, Qin Yan didn't want to hold it against him anymore; after all, he would be his brother-in-law.
(Fu Weiheng: This is what they call self-deception.)
(Qin Yan: Get lost.)
