Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Wen Kerou didn't want the atmosphere to be too oppressive, so she smiled and joked, "Fortunately, the owner who opened the shop here is preparing to transfer the business because he doesn't know how to run a business, so I can take over the shop. This means that I have a connection with this place, and it is destined to belong to me."

In this place she loves, with the people she loves by her side, even the most painful illnesses seem insignificant.

Happiness can drive away all pain.

Looking at Wen Kerou's smiling face, Fu Zhengting felt even more heavy-hearted and distressed.

"How are the transfer fee and rent? Were they settled in full at once?"

The only thing he can make up for is money.

"It's settled. I didn't spend much of the money you gave me when we divorced back then, but I just happened to spend it on this." Wen Kerou said truthfully.

"That's good. If you need anything, just tell me. Try changing your clothes yourself while I go clean the bathroom."

After leaving a message, Fu Zhengting went into the restroom.

Wen Kerou looked at the closed bathroom door, pinched her arm, and then smiled foolishly.

The body, which was originally soft and weak, seemed to suddenly become incredibly strong.

I even have the energy to change my clothes now.

She quickly changed, folded her dirty clothes and placed them on the table, then locked the notebook and placed it at the bottom of her books.

He picked up the book "Pride and Prejudice" and started reading.

Uncle Zhong was worried about Xu Xia taking care of him, so he couldn't sleep soundly. Before dawn, he got up and rushed to the hospital.

When he arrived at the hospital, he neither saw Fu Zhengting nor Xu Xia, leaving him completely bewildered and panicked.

He was afraid that Yang Guanghui had returned from his hometown ahead of time and kidnapped Fu Zhengting to launch a preemptive strike.

He hurriedly pulled out his phone, wanting to call Anan first to ask, since Anan was keeping an eye on him, but he also wanted to call Fu Zhengting directly.

After hesitating for two seconds, he dialed Fu Zhengting's number first.

After Fu Zhengting finished tidying up and came out, he received a call from Uncle Zhong and realized that he had not yet told Uncle Zhong about Wen Kerou's situation.

But hearing Uncle Zhong's anxious tone, he felt particularly warm.

It's like a child who lacks love finally receiving the fatherly love they've been longing for.

He put the call on speakerphone, and Wen Kerou could hear Uncle Zhong's anxious voice. Because Fu Zhengting didn't speak when he answered, Uncle Zhong was particularly worried and kept asking if he had been kidnapped. Wen Kerou couldn't help but laugh.

While laughing, she didn't forget to give Fu Zhengting a reproachful look.

Uncle Zhong is so worried, that's really awful.

But she knew why Fu Zhengting did this.

The relationship between Fu Zhengting and Uncle Zhong is no longer simply that of a boss and his subordinate.

They are not father and son, but their bond is stronger than that of father and son.

Uncle Zhong faintly heard Wen Kerou's laughter, which made him even more confused.

What exactly is going on now?

"Ah Shen, say something! Why aren't you saying anything? Are you trying to drive me crazy? Are you with Wen Kerou right now?"

He asked several questions in succession.

Wen Kerou urged Fu Zhengting with her eyes to respond to Uncle Zhong quickly.

She's also a soft-hearted person, someone who cares about herself; how could she bear to let the elderly worry?

Fu Zhengting finally spoke up, "Uncle Zhong, I'm fine. I'm with Wen Kerou."

Uncle Zhong breathed a long sigh of relief.

After I calmed down, I felt like getting angry.

But he couldn't bring himself to be too harsh, so he gritted his teeth and controlled his temper. "Ah Shen, you've gone too far. How could you scare me like that?"

Fu Zhengting's smile was harder to suppress than AK's, and it kept rising higher and higher.

Wen Kerou stared adoringly at Fu Zhengting, who was smiling like a child.

She hopes that Fu Zhengting can have more of these happy moments in the future.

She knew that Mu Tiantian could definitely do it.

"Ah Shen, you're bullying an old man like me! I'm going to complain to Tian Tian and ask her to stand up for me!" Uncle Zhong said, deliberately trying to intimidate him.

The atmosphere changed a bit when Mu Tiantian was mentioned.

Fu Zhengting's smile vanished.

He longed to find Sweetie!

I'm always afraid that if it's a little later, Tian Tian will actually marry Ling Jieyu.

But considering that he had won the arm wrestling match against Ling Jieyu, he figured that someone as arrogant and haughty as Ling Jieyu wouldn't go back on his word.

Having promised Xu Xia, he couldn't go back on his word.

Since Uncle Zhong had brought it up, he followed up by instructing him, "Uncle Zhong, I'm not available right now, could you go and check on Tian Tian for me?"

Uncle Zhong knew that Fu Zhengting never joked about love, and realizing something was amiss, he asked the question that had been bothering him, "Why is it inconvenient?"

Fu Zhengting glanced at Wen Kerou, "Uncle Zhong, don't ask so many questions. I'll tell you when it's convenient for me, okay?"

Uncle Zhong didn't want to ask any more questions, so he said, "Okay, I'll do whatever you tell me."

Fu Zhengting told Uncle Zhong to process his discharge from the hospital first, and if Fu Zhenlong and Xiao Hailan asked about his condition, he should say that he was going to a quiet place to recuperate and not to disturb him.

He glanced down at himself; if he were to stay here, he would need to prepare some clothes.

Moreover, if we don't tell Uncle Zhong the truth, he will continue to worry about it.

After hanging up the phone, he asked Wen Kerou if she minded letting Uncle Zhong know.

Wen Kerou knew that Uncle Zhong wouldn't speak carelessly, and she also knew that Fu Zhengting didn't want Uncle Zhong to worry unnecessarily, so she nodded.

Fu Zhengting called Uncle Zhong back, told him the truth, and asked him to bring him clothes.

Uncle Zhong was shocked when he learned the truth.

After the initial shock, I finally understood why Wen Kerou's mother had come to visit Fu Zhengting last night.

It turns out she was asking Fu Zhengting to accompany Wen Kerou through the final moments of her life.

His eyes welled up with tears when he thought of Wen Kerou's quiet and elegant demeanor.

Why did such a good person not have a happy ending?

He lowered his head, covered his face, and cried sadly.

Then he sent Wen Kerou a message of encouragement via WeChat.

Wen Kerou's eyes welled up with tears as she read the encouraging message from Uncle Zhong.

Fu Zhengting saw Wen Kerou looking down at her phone, looking like she was about to cry. He wanted to comfort her but didn't know how.

Remembering something, he sent a voice message to Uncle Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, I don't want Tian Tian to know that I have regained my memory beforehand. I want to give her a surprise when I go to see her... Your current task is to go to Dongcheng and secretly observe the situation at Tian Tian's home. If you are sure that Ling Jieyu has really kept his promise, you can go home to be with your wife and children. You have worked hard taking care of me during this time, running between two places. I'll give you a long vacation to rest."

"Okay, I understand. I'll head to the Qin family in Dongcheng after I'm discharged from the hospital."

After sending the voice message, Uncle Zhong started packing his things.

Fu Zhengting finished his conversation with Uncle Zhong and then realized that Wen Kerou was crying.

With her face slightly lowered, tears dripped onto the phone screen.

They looked so pitiful.

He pulled out a tissue from the table and used it to wipe Wen Kerou's tears.

It was already daylight.

Xu Xia glanced at her phone; it was already 6:30 in the morning.

Before we knew it, dawn had broken.

She plans to buy more groceries and keep them in the refrigerator to cook her daughter's favorite dishes.

Before leaving, I gently opened the door and peeked inside. I saw Fu Zhengting wiping away his daughter's tears, and I was both moved and saddened.

If only Fu Zhengting loved her daughter.
