00:00Bosses stand in three years.
00:01I thought I'd finally get a happy ending, but his true love is coming back.
00:05The boss handed me a black card and an agreement.
00:08Leave with the baby.
00:09Never show up again.
00:11I remembered he mocked me before friends.
00:13Laughed I was obedient thing.
00:15I clenched fists, ready to throw agreement in his face.
00:18When suddenly a childish little voice echoed in my mind.
00:28Last time, you turned him down for dignity, but his true love found us annoying.
00:34So she had us drowned in the river.
00:38I haven't even seen this world yet.
00:40I don't want my second life to start with death.
00:43I froze drowned in the river.
00:45The childish voice exploded in my head.
00:49Those words sent chills down my spine.
00:52I looked at the man.
00:54Fu Jingyi, aloof.
00:55His eyes were cold.
00:57Shenji.
00:58Fifty million and this villa.
01:00Enough for your lifetime.
01:02His voice was cold.
01:04Take the money.
01:05Disappear.
01:05A few minutes ago, I probably would have thrown the agreement in his face, but now...
01:10Mom, don't be stupid.
01:12Pride isn't worth much.
01:14Your life matters more.
01:16Fifty million.
01:17Take it.
01:18Enjoy life.
01:19When I'm out, I'll care for you.
01:20Don't fight his true love.
01:22He's crazy.
01:23Take it.
01:24Don't fight him.
01:26The baby's anxious voice urged me.
01:28I took a deep breath.
01:29Pushed down my fear, reached out, and steadily picked up the black card in the agreement.
01:34Fu Jingyi looked surprised.
01:35He probably thought I'd beg him not to leave in tears.
01:38I looked up and gave him a gentle smile.
01:40Just one word, clear and firm.
01:43Fu Jingyi frowned, as if he wanted to say something.
01:45But in the end, he stayed silent.
01:47He stood up and straightened his suit.
01:50He finished talking, turned around, and left without a second thought.
01:55As the door closed, my legs went weak.
01:57I nearly collapsed on the floor.
01:59Mom, you're amazing.
02:00We're rich.
02:01Let's celebrate with a big meal.
02:03The baby's voice was excited, but I couldn't smile as I touched my flat belly.
02:07For the first time, I felt the life connected to my blood that can see the future.
02:12This time, I won't let Shen Jiang's tragedy repeat.
02:15I picked up my phone and called the bank, hearing that long string of zeros in my account.
02:20Finally made my heart settle down.
02:22Fu Jingyi, when you their villas in Beijing's top rich area.
02:25Mountain house, tight security.
02:27Fu Jingyi was generous.
02:29I carried my luggage.
02:30Rang the doorbell.
02:31A friendly aunt opened it.
02:33And warmly took my bags.
02:35You're Miss Shen, right?
02:36I'm Wong.
02:37Mr. Fu said I'll care for you like my own daughter.
02:40Come in.
02:41I nodded.
02:42I walked in.
02:43The villa was luxurious and empty, but I didn't feel like admiring it.
02:46Mom, be careful.
02:47Aunt Wong is Wenyu's person.
02:48She looks friendly, but she's good at pretending.
02:51You got tricked by her last time.
02:52She put slow-acting drugs in our food.
02:54Your health got worse.
02:56The baby was born sick because of it.
02:58My heart sank when Wenyu's people aren't back yet.
03:01You reached this far.
03:03I watched Aunt Wong bring the calming soup.
03:05Gaze cold.
03:06Aunt Wong.
03:07I'll handle the kitchen from now on.
03:09Aunt Wong's smile froze on her face.
03:13Miss Shen, that's not right.
03:14Mr. Fu told me to care for you.
03:16I said it's not necessary.
03:18I spoke more firmly, and Aunt Wong looked upset.
03:21She forced a nod.
03:23After sending her away, I immediately checked the whole villa.
03:26Mom, behind the study painting, in the living room lamp base.
03:30Plus inside the hardcover book by the bed there were bugs and cameras everywhere.
03:36That psycho when you love spying on people, then waits for a chance to get rid of you.
03:41I followed baby's instructions.
03:43Found those miniature devices.
03:44Looking at these things, I laughed in rage.
03:47I didn't remove them.
03:48Put them back.
03:50If you want to see, I'll show you.
03:54Since that day, I read parenting books daily.
03:56Do yoga.
03:57Sometimes talk to myself.
03:59Baby, mom will always protect you.
04:02Even though your dad left us.
04:04Mom has money.
04:05And will give you the best life.
04:07I even made phone calls to friends on camera on purpose.
04:11I'm planning to buy a small island overseas with that money.
04:14And move there after I give birth.
04:16Never coming back.
04:17I shaped myself into a poor woman who's still kind and strong after being abandoned.
04:21Sure enough, days later.
04:23Someone unexpected showed up Fu Jing's mother.
04:25Madam Fu.
04:26Madam Fu arrived suddenly.
04:27Aunt Wong didn't announce her.
04:29Madam Fu wore an elegant ki-pao and looked noble with sharp eyes.
04:32The moment she entered, she saw me watering the flowers.
04:36So you're Shenji.
04:37She spoke, expressionless.
04:39I put down the can and stood nervously.
04:42Hello, auntie.
04:43Mom, Chance.
04:45This grandmother never liked Wenya's fake act in her last life.
04:48Do your best.
04:49She's our strongest backer.
04:51I felt confident, didn't try to please her.
04:54I calmly invited her to sit down and made her a special flower tea.
04:57Madam Fu looked at me and spoke.
04:59Your baby.
05:01Is it Jingy's?
05:02I nodded.
05:03My eyes getting a little red.
05:05I showed the right hurt and strength.
05:07Auntie, I know I shouldn't have.
05:09But the baby is innocent.
05:11Jingy gave you money to abort it.
05:12I shook my head and softly said.
05:14He told me to have the baby, then leave.
05:17Mrs. Fu fell silent and picked up her teacup.
05:19Her gaze on my flat belly.
05:21Do you hate him?
05:22I forced a bitter smile.
05:24No hard feelings.
05:25You can't force feelings.
05:27I just hope he's happy.
05:28After saying that, I casually added.
05:31Miss Wen is really impressive.
05:33They're a match.
05:34I saw Mrs. Fu's lips barely twitch.
05:37Since that day, Mrs. Fu's attitude changed subtly.
05:40I'm sorry.
05:45She started dropping by now and then.
05:47Bring expensive tonics.
05:48She'd mention when she came.
05:51Gee, the tea you made last time was great.
05:53I've been sleeping much better lately.
05:55Aunt Wang's face kept getting gloomier.
05:57But didn't dare say anything.
05:58I knew I was putting on the right act.
06:00Madam Fu is smart.
06:01She's seen all kinds of upper class hypocrisy.
06:04I stay out of drama.
06:06So she finds me real.
06:07That day, Fu Jing came back.
06:09When he pushed in, walking with Madam Fu in garden, seeing us get along, his sharp brows
06:15furrowed for once.
06:17No.
06:18What are you doing here?
06:19Madam Fu shot him a glare.
06:22Can I come see my grandson?
06:24Fu Jing looked at me judging, suspicious, and even a little confused without realizing it.
06:31What are you up to now?
06:33I hadn't spoken.
06:34Madam Fu was annoyed.
06:35How can you talk like that?
06:37Gee is such a sweet girl.
06:38Quiet and gentle.
06:39How could she play tricks?
06:41I lower my head, looking hurt.
06:44Jing, you got it wrong.
06:45I didn't do anything.
06:47Mom, call him out.
06:48Ask him if only schemers like Wenya are good enough for him.
06:51Forget it.
06:52Just keep acting pitiful.
06:54Guys always fall for that.
06:55I hear the baby's thoughts.
06:57Almost left.
06:58Fu Jing was speechless, face darkening.
07:01I don't care what you're doing.
07:03Wenya's coming back next week.
07:05I don't want her to see you.
07:06He finished speaking and turned to leave.
07:09Stop.
07:09Madam Fu called him.
07:11Gee is coming to next week's family dinner.
07:13Fu Jing suddenly turned around, eyes sharp as knives.
07:16Mom.
07:18I said it.
07:20Let her go.
07:21Mrs. Fu was tough.
07:22She's carrying the Fu's child.
07:24Why can't she see people?
07:25I want to see who daresay anything.
07:28Fu Jing's chest was heaving violently.
07:30He looked at me, eyes mixed.
07:32He didn't say a word, slammed the door and left.
07:38Madam Fu held my hand and patted it.
07:40Don't be afraid.
07:42I'm here with you.
07:43I looked at her gratefully, but my mind was clear.
07:46Family banquet, Wenya.
07:47Fu family banquet at Old Mansion halfway uphill, packed with guests and celebrities.
07:51I wore Madam Fu's dress.
07:53Holding her arm.
07:55We appeared in front of everyone.
07:56All eyes were on me curious, scrutinizing, even disdainful.
08:00Madam Fu squeezed my hand.
08:02Gave me a reassuring look.
08:03Straightened back.
08:05Smiled.
08:05I'm not Shen Ji tonight.
08:07I'm the Fu family's future grandson's mother.
08:09Fu Jing stood nearby.
08:11Chatting and laughing.
08:12He glanced at me lightly.
08:14Then looked away.
08:15Handsome guy.
08:17Wait till I get out.
08:18I'll show you.
08:19Kid upset.
08:20I held back laughter.
08:21Scanning the crowd, I quickly spotted Wenya.
08:24She wore an aqua dress, nice makeup, surrounded by celebrities.
08:28The starry sky dress didn't appear.
08:31My detective didn't let me down.
08:33The dress Wenya ordered.
08:34Accident in transit, blocked outside city.
08:37She froze seeing me.
08:39Jealousy and resentment flashed.
08:40Then she quickly adjusted her expression.
08:42Come to me with a wine glass.
08:45Gee.
08:46Long time no see.
08:48She smiled gently and generously.
08:49I didn't expect to see you here.
08:52Kuno is really.
08:53Let you come alone.
08:55Talk inside out.
08:56They all claim sovereignty.
08:57I smile.
08:59Aunt Fu brought me here.
09:00A word blocked her mouth.
09:02Mrs. Fu's identity is more important than her white moonlight.
09:05The gentle face froze.
09:07Then she laughed again.
09:08And she got very close, saying in a voice only we could hear.
09:12Shen Ji.
09:13Do you think pregnancy makes you valuable?
09:15Stop dreaming.
09:17The person Jin Yan loves is me.
09:19You are just a stand-in who can't be on the table.
09:22Careful!
09:23She slip and bump you!
09:25The baby's scream explodes in my head.
09:27Right behind me is a spiral staircase.
09:30As Wenya turns, she stumbles a little.
09:32Screaming as she falls toward me.
09:34I follow her.
09:36My knees buckle and I fall back too.
09:37But not toward the stairs.
09:39I am falling right into Fu Jingyi, who just walked behind me.
09:46I let out a short cry.
09:48Fu Jingyi reflexively caught me in his arms.
09:50His brows furrowed.
09:51Everyone around looked.
09:53Wenya held out her hand, as if to help me up.
09:55She was pushing me.
09:57Her expression dramatic.
09:58I didn't mean to.
09:59I just slipped.
10:00Jing.
10:01She.
10:02She stammered, leaning into Fu Jingyi's arms.
10:04I looked up.
10:06Tears and eyes, looking pitiful.
10:09Miss Wen.
10:09I know you don't like me.
10:11But why did you push me?
10:13There's a baby in my belly.
10:15I didn't speak loud.
10:16But everyone heard me clearly.
10:18In that moment, all there looks toward when you changed.
10:21Mrs. Fu's face turned cold instantly.
10:24Wenya.
10:24Fu Jingyi looked down at me.
10:26My tears just fell onto the back of his hand, burning hot.
10:28His body stiffened, his eyes unreadable.
10:32I didn't.
10:33Jingyi believe me.
10:34She's framing me.
10:35Wenya was almost in tears, glaring at me with resentment.
10:39Shenjiyi, you bitch.
10:41No one even knows whose baby you're actually carrying.
10:44Her words explode like a bomb in the crowd, making everyone gasp.
10:49Fu Jingyi's face suddenly turns stormy.
10:52He helps me steady, cold gaze on Wenya.
10:56When you're lost to jealousy,
10:58blurting words.
10:59The child in her belly might not be yours.
11:02She's been your stand-in for three years.
11:04Who knows if she's seeing others?
11:06Jingyi, don't let her fool you.
11:07Let's do a paternity test to confirm.
11:09As she finishes, the room falls silent,
11:12and I feel Fu Jingyi's arms tighten around me.
11:15I look up and meet his deep eyes,
11:17filled with suspicion and scrutiny.
11:20Something I can't understand.
11:22My heart sinks.
11:24Fine.
11:24My heart's hitting rock bottom.
11:26I hear my calm voice.
11:28Paternity test.
11:30I look Fu Jingyi in the eyes, steady, and say, word by word, I agree.
11:37My calm made him struggle even more.
11:40He first saw the sharpness behind my gentle exterior.
11:44Wenya's composed face cracked a little he probably didn't expect me to agree so easily.
11:48But then I changed the topic.
11:50I looked around at everyone present and said firmly,
11:52I have one condition.
11:54Since Miss Wen doubts my character and the Fu family's bloodline in public,
11:57this can't be settled privately.
11:59Prove myself to everyone.
12:01Prove innocence.
12:02I glanced at Madam Fu.
12:03Her eyes were full of approval and concern.
12:06Then I looked at the Fu family patriarch, Master Fu,
12:08always sitting in the main seat.
12:10Silently watching this farts.
12:12Now, he finally spoke his voice loud as a bell.
12:14Good.
12:15Let's do it.
12:16Fu family descendants must never be slandered.
12:19His decision final,
12:20Wenya's face turned pale instantly.
12:22She wanted to make a fuss and force me to back down.
12:25But she didn't expect I'd be tougher once the test results are out.
12:28She becomes the malicious offender.
12:33Well done.
12:34Make her trapped.
12:36But be careful.
12:38She messed with test results.
12:40Last time,
12:41she used her uncle's connections in the health system
12:43and threatened the chief doctor to get a fake report.
12:45My heart tensed up.
12:47Here we go again,
12:48Wenya only has a few tricks,
12:49but they're deadly every time.
12:51I can't let my guard down again.
12:53I wasn't feeling well.
12:55And went back to my room with Mrs. Fu.
12:57As soon as I got in,
12:58I called my private detective
12:59and told him to keep a close watch on Wenya.
13:01Check all top paternity labs in Beijing.
13:04If she acts suspiciously,
13:06let me know.
13:07After hanging up,
13:08I still felt uneasy,
13:09I thought.
13:10Pulled out a hair and carefully wrapped it in a tissue.
13:12Then I found Grandpa Fu's trusted buttlet,
13:14Uncle Fu.
13:16I know you're the one Grandpa trusts most.
13:18I handed him my hair.
13:19This is my sample.
13:20I trust only you and Grandpa.
13:23Could you please find another fully reliable lab to do another test?
13:27Uncle Fu looked at me,
13:28a flash of surprise in his aged eyes.
13:39After that,
13:40I sighed in Muli.
13:42Three days later,
13:43Wenya brought an official report.
13:45Storming into Fu's old house,
13:47she slapped the report on the table,
13:49smug.
13:50Everyone,
13:51look it's written clearly on the report.
13:54Shenji's child isn't related to Jing.
13:57In the living room,
13:58Fu family members were there.
14:00Fu Jingyi sat on the sofa,
14:01expressionless.
14:02Mrs. Fu shook with anger.
14:04No way.
14:05This is definitely fake.
14:06Auntie,
14:07black and white,
14:08can't deny.
14:09When you laughed wildly,
14:11I told you.
14:12She's indecent.
14:13She'd do anything for money.
14:15She spoke,
14:16turned to me.
14:17Hateful gaze.
14:18Shenji,
14:19what to say?
14:20Right now,
14:20get out of the Fu family.
14:22I stared at the report and said nothing.
14:24Mom,
14:25don't panic.
14:26Grandpa's report is coming.
14:27Look at Fu Jingyi's face.
14:29He must have doubts but won't say it.
14:31Scumbag.
14:32I take a deep,
14:33steady breath,
14:34slowly lift my head.
14:35I take a deep breath and look up.
14:38Meeting Wenya's gaze.
14:39Miss Wen,
14:40are you rushing me out because you're nervous?
14:42Nervous about what?
14:43When you're raised voice?
14:45This report is from Beijing First Hospital.
14:48Authoritative,
14:49still argue.
14:50I laughed.
14:51First hospital,
14:52as I know.
14:53Paternity tests take five to seven days,
14:55but Miss Wen got an urgent report in three days.
14:58That's impressive.
14:59But I changed the subject.
15:01Did you forget both samples are needed for the test?
15:03I handed my sample to Uncle Fu myself,
15:06but Fu Jingyi's sample.
15:08Looked at him.
15:09Did you give them your sample?
15:10Fu Jingyi's lips move.
15:12He said two words.
15:13Meo.
15:14Wenya's smile froze.
15:16The whole room gasped.
15:18No man's sample.
15:19So how did she get this test report?
15:22The answer is obvious.
15:24I,
15:24I pulled some strings and got a blood sample from Jingyi's previous medical checkup.
15:28Wenya is still struggling.
15:30Her face is pale.
15:32You fu juo.
15:32Mrs. Fu snapped.
15:37Jing's health records are top secret.
15:39Only the old master and Jing have access.
15:40No one can touch.
15:42How could an outsider like you get them?
15:44The lie was exposed.
15:46Panic finally showed in Wenya's eyes.
15:48She looked to Fu Jingyi for help.
15:50Jing,
15:50believe me.
15:51I did this because I love you.
15:53I feared you get tricked.
15:54Fu Jingyi looked at her.
15:56His eyes cold and full of disgust.
15:59Just then,
16:00Uncle Fu hurried in holding another sealed envelope.
16:04Master,
16:05Madam,
16:06sir the results are in.
16:07Everyone's heart was in their throat.
16:10Uncle Fu gave the envelope to the old master,
16:12who put on reading glasses.
16:14Trembling hands tear open,
16:15pull out report.
16:16He glanced,
16:17slammed the table,
16:18and jumped up excitedly.
16:19It sits my great-grandson.
16:22Paternity 99.99%,
16:24Wenya pale.
16:26Faded instantly.
16:27She's done.
16:28No way.
16:29She mumbled like she'd lost her mind.
16:31This can't be.
16:32She rushed forward,
16:33trying to snatch the report.
16:35Chaos broke out.
16:36I stood aside.
16:37Watching her crazy,
16:38I found it ridiculous.
16:40Mom,
16:41stay away from her,
16:42she's about to go nuts.
16:43The baby's voice turned sharp,
16:45I stepped back,
16:46but too late.
16:50Wenya was shoved hard by Mrs. Fu during the struggle,
16:52and she staggered right into me.
16:54I saw madness and hatred flash in her eyes
16:57as she used all her strength to push hard at my stomach.
16:59Everything happened so fast.
17:01I felt a sharp pain in my belly,
17:03my vision went black,
17:05and I fell back.
17:06Gee,
17:07Miss Shen,
17:08cries of alarm echoed around me,
17:10I blacked out,
17:11but just before I lost consciousness,
17:13I heard a guttural,
17:14almost inhuman roar,
17:15filled with endless pain and self-loathing.
17:18It was Fu Jingy,
17:19I felt his trembling arms hold me tight,
17:21and saw in his eyes a fear so overwhelming,
17:24he looked utterly shattered.
17:25Mom,
17:26hang in there,
17:26baby's not scared.
17:28Dad finally snapped.
17:28If he hesitates again after I'm born,
17:30I'll beat him first.
17:31I felt lifted by strong arms.
17:34The embrace was hot but shaking nonstop.
17:37The thick scent of blood filled the air.
17:39My baby,
17:40my baby has to be okay.
17:42That was my last thought before I passed out.
17:45When I woke up again,
17:46I was in a VIP hospital.
17:48Woke up in VIP hospital room.
17:50White ceiling,
17:52disinfectant smell.
17:53I sat up suddenly,
17:54first reaction,
17:55touch stomach.
17:56Don't move.
17:57A big hand pressed me down.
17:58It was Fu Jingy,
17:59he was sitting by the bed.
18:01Stubble covered his chin.
18:03And his eyes were bloodshot.
18:04He looked exhausted.
18:06He was surrounded by a dead stillness of regret.
18:09He held my hand.
18:10Horse voice,
18:11nightmare.
18:12I dreamed you fell into cold water,
18:15couldn't catch you.
18:16How's the baby?
18:17I asked hoarsely.
18:19Okay.
18:19Fu Jingy's Adam's apple bobbed.
18:21The doctor said you just had a scare.
18:23Luckily you got here in time.
18:25Rest?
18:26I looked at him.
18:27Saw the fear and guilt in his eyes.
18:29Where's Wenya?
18:30I won't let her appear in front of you again.
18:32His voice was deep.
18:34Humph,
18:34he's got some conscience.
18:36He kicked Wenya out.
18:37Throws all her cards.
18:39The Wen family tried to beg,
18:41but he shot them down and said if they said one more word.
18:44Make their family disappear from Beijing.
18:45I listened to baby reporting live.
18:48I didn't really feel much,
18:49since I paid for this with half my life.
18:54I stayed in hospital half a month during that time.
18:57Fu Jingy stayed by my side.
18:59I often woke up at night from nightmares.
19:01He fed me and peeled fruit.
19:03Awkwardly massaged my swollen calves.
19:05He told me he'd cleared out everything at home related to Wenya.
19:09Cut past highs.
19:11He was no longer that untouchable rich air.
19:13More like a kid who didn't know how to fix his mistakes.
19:17Fu family came daily.
19:18Mrs. Fu held my hand,
19:20tears never stopping.
19:21Old Master Fu said,
19:23Dare make me suffer again.
19:25Break legs and throw out.
19:26I'm the Fu family's cherished treasure.
19:29On the day I left the hospital,
19:30Fu Jing carried me himself from the ward all the way down to the car.
19:33I felt awkward.
19:34He held me tight.
19:36Don't move.
19:36No overexertion.
19:38His voice was gentle and caring.
19:40Back at Vila,
19:41Aunt Wang gone.
19:43Instead,
19:43there's a professional team of nutritionists,
19:46nannies,
19:46and security.
19:50Mom,
19:51Dad really went all out.
19:53He hired these people from abroad with high salaries.
19:55All are clean and trustworthy.
19:58I watched Fu Jing busily directing everyone,
20:00and I felt a mix of emotions.
20:02That night,
20:03he didn't leave.
20:04He brought a quilt and insisted on sleeping on my bedroom sofa.
20:07I'm worried,
20:08he said.
20:09I saw his tall figure curled up on that small sofa and didn't say no.
20:13Late night,
20:14I was woken by soft sobbing.
20:17Babby!
20:17Sob Mom,
20:18I'm scared.
20:19In my last life,
20:20it was at this time.
20:22Wenya's people rushed in.
20:23They covered your mouth and dragged you out the window.
20:26I don't want to sink in the river again.
20:27Sob!
20:28The baby's crying was full of fear,
20:30stabbing right into my heart.
20:32I suddenly couldn't breathe.
20:34A chilling cold wrapped around me,
20:36and tears welled up instantly.
20:38I hugged my belly.
20:40Silently comfort her.
20:41Don't be scared,
20:42my sweet baby.
20:44Mom's right here with you,
20:45and this time around,
20:46I promise I won't let anyone ever hurt you again.
20:48A figure on the sofa stirred in the dark.
20:51Fu Jing sat up and walked over to my bed.
20:53He saw the tear stains on my face under the moonlight,
20:56and his heart clenched painfully.
20:58Not ma.
20:59He asked hoarsely,
21:00I shook head,
21:01wiped tears.
21:02Fu Jing,
21:03for the first time,
21:04I called him by his full name.
21:06He froze.
21:06Did you love me?
21:08I asked,
21:09even just a moment.
21:10Or was I just a stand-in for Wenya?
21:12Fu Jing stayed silent so long I thought he'd never answer.
21:16I don't know,
21:17he said,
21:17struggling.
21:18His voice was self-loathing.
21:20I thought I loved Wenya.
21:22I realized,
21:23it was just a stubborn obsession from my youth.
21:25But you,
21:26he laughed at himself.
21:28Without me knowing.
21:29You became a habit I couldn't break.
21:31A part of my life.
21:32I was blind and pushed you away.
21:35I'm such a bastard.
21:36Only when I saw you in blood did I realize those knives.
21:39I was hurting myself too.
21:41One thought then.
21:43His voice was shaking with fear,
21:45I can't let you die,
21:46if I lose you.
21:47My world will be nothing but an empty shell.
21:53Wow,
21:54he finally gets it.
21:55Mom,
21:56his confession wasn't great.
21:57But I guess it counts.
21:58I looked at him and suddenly felt a bit sad.
22:01Fu Jing,
22:02let's make a deal.
22:03What?
22:04We'll marry after the baby's born.
22:06Fu Jing suddenly looked up,
22:08totally shocked.
22:09I met his gaze and calmly said,
22:11Don't want your love.
22:13I want to be Mrs. Fu and my child.
22:15Legit,
22:16worry-free for life.
22:17In return,
22:18I can help you secure your place in the Fu family
22:21and deal with those greedy relatives.
22:22But Fu Jing,
22:24don't get it twisted.
22:25I'll try for our child,
22:26but not forgiveness.
22:28Prove you're worth it.
22:30He looked at me like meeting for the first time.
22:32I saw a shock in his eyes,
22:34and the old meekness was gone.
22:36Now,
22:37I'm calm and rational,
22:38even cold and distant.
22:41His Adam's apple bobbed,
22:43and he slowly nodded,
22:46Okay.
22:47The news of my marriage to Fu Jing exploded like a bomb in the upper circles of Beijing.
22:52Everyone was shocked.
22:54No one expected a notorious stand-in like me would actually marry into the top-tier Fu family.
22:58The wedding was rushed,
23:00but incredibly lavish.
23:01Old Mr. Fu handled everything,
23:03trying to give me every good thing in the world.
23:05The night before the wedding,
23:07Mrs. Fu took my hand and spoke sincerely.
23:09She,
23:10I know you've suffered.
23:12Kinch has been spoiled by us and doesn't know how to love someone.
23:15I hope you can be patient with him.
23:16I smiled and nodded,
23:18Don't worry,
23:19Auntie I won't just put up with it.
23:20I'll make him learn.
23:21On the wedding day,
23:23I stood beside Fu Jing in a diamond-studded gown.
23:26He looked at me with focused,
23:27tender eyes.
23:28You look beautiful today.
23:30When we exchanged rings,
23:31I heard our baby's happy little voice inside.
23:34Oh yeah.
23:35We're married,
23:36now I'm an official heiress,
23:37no more fear of being thrown into the river.
23:39Go, Mom.
23:40Yeah.
23:42I couldn't help laughing.
23:47After marriage,
23:49Fu Jing seemed new.
23:50He turned down unnecessary events,
23:52came home on time daily.
23:53He clumsily tried to cook and brought me a bowl of soup.
23:56I just took a sip and calmly said,
23:58Tastes good,
23:59but no joy he hoped for.
24:01He bought prenatal speaker.
24:03He played classical music,
24:05but I found it noisy and turned it off.
24:07At night,
24:08he tried to hold me.
24:09I gently pushed him away,
24:10saying not to press the baby.
24:12The light in his eyes faded.
24:14Helplessness and bitterness followed.
24:16He realized the wounds he caused couldn't be healed with just an apology.
24:20He'd spend life making up and waiting.
24:22I became the most envied woman in all of Beijing,
24:25but I knew.
24:26It wasn't enough.
24:27I hadn't forgotten last time's end.
24:29Even though Wenya was sent abroad,
24:31as long as she's alive,
24:32she's a ticking time bomb.
24:34Contacted that pie again.
24:36Check Wenya's overseas situation.
24:38Including her various sources of financial support
24:40and the wide range of social connections she has built over time.
24:44The news came back.
24:45Wenya's not well abroad.
24:47She got involved with a local gang boss.
24:49She's trying to get money.
24:50Mom,
24:51Wenya's in contact with a money laundering group overseas.
24:54She scammed the gang boss and ran off with his money.
24:56He doesn't know the group's boss is from the Qin family.
24:59My gaze turned cold,
25:01I had a private investigator casually leak Wenya's plan to the gang boss.
25:05The rest isn't my concern anymore.
25:07Sure enough,
25:08not long after,
25:09Fu stocks fluctuated slightly.
25:11Fu Jing's rival Qin family clashed with an overseas gang,
25:14causing a big scandal.
25:16And at the center of the scandal was a woman beaten beyond recognition.
25:20Wenya,
25:21Fu Jing got pushed into the limelight.
25:23At the board meeting,
25:24extended family uncles challenged him for an explanation.
25:28Fu Jing sat at the head,
25:30face dark.
25:30I was eight months pregnant.
25:32With Uncle Fu's help,
25:34I walked into the meeting room.
25:38All stunned.
25:39I walked over to Fu Jing and took his hand.
25:42Then I looked at the uncles who had been making the loudest noise.
25:45Are you questioning my husband's ability to handle personal matters?
25:49Or do you think a woman abandoned by the Fu family long ago could still hurt its reputation?
25:53I smiled quietly,
25:55but my voice carried a subtle pressure.
25:57Miss Wenya's private life?
25:59It's his own choice,
26:00the Fu family doesn't need to pay for his downfall.
26:03As for the stock price,
26:05I handed a file to Fu Jing.
26:06I used his startup fund.
26:09Investment profits.
26:11And the capital injection plan made by my professional team I think that's enough to calm everyone.
26:15The meeting room was dead silent.
26:18Everyone stared at me in disbelief,
26:20including Fu Jing.
26:21He looked at me,
26:23eyes full of shock,
26:24gratitude,
26:25and something I'd never seen before.
26:27Love emotion.
26:31He grabbed my hand and stood up,
26:34his eye scanning the room with authority.
26:35My wife is right,
26:36outsiders have no say in Fu family matters.
26:40If anyone objects again,
26:42take your shares and get out.
26:43That day,
26:44Fu Jing ruthlessly eliminated all internal threats to the company.
26:48And I,
26:49Shen Ji,
26:50Mrs. Fu stood firm.
26:52In front of everyone.
26:54Mom,
26:55you're amazing,
26:56you're my idol.
26:57Dad's gaze at you is totally lovestruck.
26:59Punishment almost over,
27:01let him in now.
27:02I heard my baby's praise.
27:04And my smile grew wider.
27:06After that upheaval,
27:08Fu Jing's position was stronger,
27:09and Wenya entered her personal hell.
27:12The private detective's report was shocking.
27:15The gang leader slashed her prized face when he found out she stole money.
27:19Then sold her to a chaotic,
27:21remote mining area.
27:22There,
27:23she was forced to do filthy work.
27:25She lived in fear and regret,
27:26no daylight.
27:28The report ended with a photo Wenya,
27:30dressed in rags,
27:31curled up in a corner.
27:33She's greedily chewing on an old newspaper that was used to wrap food.
27:37And right on it,
27:38there's news of Fu Jing holding me at a charity gala.
27:41The sharp contrast and jealousy are the cruelest punishment for her.
27:47His ending was worse than before,
27:49but I feel no sympathy.
27:51My due date is getting closer,
27:53and Fu Jing is getting more and more anxious.
27:55He's never leaving my side.
27:57That night,
27:57he gave me a calf massage just like always.
28:00Gee,
28:00he suddenly said,
28:02yeah,
28:02I'm sorry,
28:03he said,
28:03for what I did before.
28:05I was a jerk,
28:06I don't ask for forgiveness.
28:07Just give me a chance to make it up to you.
28:10I looked at his reddened eyes,
28:12and something hard in my heart softened.
28:14I reached out and touched his head,
28:16all that humiliation and pain.
28:17Felt like yesterday.
28:19This is for the child,
28:20for survival.
28:21Fu Jing'i.
28:23I can't forget the hurt and pain from before,
28:25but I've seen how much you've changed.
28:27For our child and ourselves.
28:29I'm willing to let go of the past and start over with you.
28:32This isn't forgiveness,
28:33it's the start of an equal,
28:35respectful relationship.
28:40Stunned.
28:41Then buried his head in my palm like a child.
28:44His shoulders trembling.
28:46He finally admits he's wrong.
28:48Mom,
28:49seeing him so pitiful,
28:50let's give him a chance.
28:51After all,
28:52he's my real dad.
28:53I smiled,
28:54baby said give you a chance.
28:56Fu Jing suddenly looked up,
28:58his eyes full of joy.
28:59She dot,
29:00she talk to you?
29:01I nodded,
29:02and from that day on,
29:03Fu Jing's favorite thing was to lie on my belly.
29:06Talk to the baby.
29:08Baby,
29:09daddy here,
29:09can you hear?
29:10Baby,
29:11like daddy?
29:12Baby,
29:13brother or sister?
29:14Silly dad,
29:15I'm not born yet,
29:16how to answer?
29:17But since you're so sincere,
29:19I'll spare you when I'm born.
29:21Every time,
29:22I would smile and tell him the baby's answer,
29:24our home was always full of laughter.
29:26A month later,
29:27I gave birth to a healthy baby girl.
29:30Beautiful,
29:30loud cry,
29:31when the nurse brought her to me.
29:33I heard her first words in my mind,
29:35Mom,
29:36I finally get to see you,
29:37in this lifetime.
29:38We're going to be so,
29:39so happy.
29:43My tears just burst out.
29:45Yes,
29:46baby.
29:47Fu Jing held his little daughter,
29:48totally lost.
29:49His eyes were red like a rabbit's.
29:51He fumbled making formula at night too hot or cold.
29:55Sweating bullets.
29:56He carefully kissed his daughter's cheek,
29:58turned around,
29:59and gave me a precious kiss on my forehead.
30:01Stop kissing me.
30:03Dad,
30:03your beard hurts.
30:05See ye?
30:05His voice choked.
30:07Thank you,
30:07you're not a substitute,
30:09never were.
30:09You're my redemption,
30:11my only wife.
30:12Humph,
30:12now you get it,
30:13too late.
30:14Dad,
30:15I almost didn't make it.
30:16Three years later,
30:17at the annual celebration of Fu Group,
30:19with people dressed to impress,
30:20a reporter boldly asked Fu Jingyi,
30:22Mr. Fu,
30:23what's your most successful life investment?
30:26Jingyi gripped my hand.
30:27He was about to speak,
30:28but I took the mic first,
30:30smiling as I looked around.
30:31My voice was clear and steady,
30:33echoing through the hall,
30:34a man's best investment.
30:36Never stocks or assets,
30:38it's his chosen partner and built family.
30:41Because that's what lets him focus on his work with peace of mind.
30:44Foundation of his business empire.
30:46Applause erupted,
30:47I saw socialites who once looked down on me.
30:50All stunned and clearly envious.
30:53I turned and met Fu Jingyi's gaze,
30:55full of love and admiration.
