Gu Weiwei was already resting, so she was startled by the call.
“You are still at work?”
“My brother is going to stay here all night, so we can’t leave! I only slept for five hours last night. Since coming back from Slovakia, I have to work so hard.” Fu Shiqin complained with tears in his eyes.
When she was waiting for his brother at home, his brother would always run home after work.
Now that they were divorced and she had moved out, he did not want to go home at all.
Gu Weiwei got up and checked the time. “I will call him.”
“Okay.” Fu Shiqin hung up when he heard that she agreed.
Gu Weiwei turned on the bedside light and made a call to Fu Hanzheng.
Fu Hanzheng had been reading a report on an overseas project when his phone rang. He put down the files in his hands when he saw the caller.
“Still awake?”
“You are still at work?” Gu Weiwei asked straightforwardly, obviously sounding displeased.
Fu Hanzheng checked the time. “I have been busy these past few days and so there is a lot of work at the company.”
Most importantly, she was no longer at home and he did not want to face the empty home that she did not exist in.
“But you still need to leave work.” Gu Weiwei sighed and urged him. “Go home now, now, now!”
He had not had a good rest these past few days, because the wedding had been cancelled and because of the Old Lady.
He shouldn’t be working overtime the first day after the divorce.
“I still have some work to do.” Fu Hanzheng refused to leave.
Gu Weiwei gritted her teeth and snorted.
“If you like work so much, don’t come and see me anymore. Stay at the company and spend time with your work every day.”
Fu Hanzheng chuckled and stopped working.
“I am going home now.”
Hearing that he was leaving, Gu Weiwei was satisfied.
“Then… is grandma’s operation confirmed?”
“Yes, tomorrow afternoon,” Fu Hanzheng said.
Hearing his words, Gu Weiwei felt relieved. It was good that the Old Lady was willing to have the operation.
“Then go back and rest early, don’t miss me so much.”
“Okay.” Fu Hanzheng chuckled and said as he was about to leave the office, “It is getting late, take a rest. Good night.”
“Good night to you too.” Gu Weiwei said goodbye to him and hung up.
Fu Shiqin stared at his brother’s office for five minutes and saw him coming out through the doorway.
“It is getting late, let’s all go home.”
The staff of the Planning Department felt so relieved and Fu Shiqin also packed up and went home.
Sure enough, his sister-in-law’s words were more effective.
Fu Hanzheng was about to go downstairs when Fu Shiqin came running over.
“I will drive.”
“Aren’t you staying at Shiyi’s place?” Fu Hanzheng asked.
If he lived with Fu Shiyi and He Chi, why was he driving back with him?
“Third Brother and I have decided to move back home,” Fu Shiqin said with a smile as he took the car keys.
They had moved back to keep him company because they were worried that he would be alone after getting divorced, and also his sister-in-law was not at home.
Fu Hanzheng got into the car and asked with a cold face, “You called her?”
“Called who?” Fu Shiqin played dumb.
“Weiwei.” Fu Hanzheng reminded him.
“I… didn’t. Sister-in-law asked me if you were home, and I just told her the truth.”
Fu Shiqin lied without hesitation. He did not say that he had to ask her for help to get off work.
Fu Hanzheng did not want to pursue the matter any more. He looked at the scenery outside the window and was no longer in a hurry to go home.
There was no one at home that he wanted to see.
