Su Weiyi never received a reply from Sheng Yanxiao. She hadn’t paid much attention at first, but by evening, there was still no news.

Back at the apartment, Su Weiyi lay on her bed and couldn’t resist picking up her phone to check. It was still silent, without a single message.

After confirming her phone wasn’t disconnected due to unpaid bills, Su Weiyi pressed her lips together, wanting to send another message to Sheng Yanxiao. She thought it over and held back; he wasn’t the type to ignore messages without reason; he was either busy or felt there was no need to reply.

Forget it, better to wait until he gets back. She’d already waited three years; what else couldn’t she wait for?

Those matters, those words, were best clarified in person.

Work started getting busy for Su Weiyi too. She worked with meticulous diligence, especially since it was a collaboration with Sheng Yanxiao. Su Weiyi was particularly attentive.

Spending time on something doesn’t guarantee it’s good, but not spending time definitely leads to poor results. Su Weiyi was often busy both during and after work, and just like that, half a month had passed.

During these two weeks, Su Weiyi didn’t contact Sheng Yanxiao. Of course, she hadn’t heard any news from him either, all she knew was he still hadn’t returned.

Coinciding with the weekend, Su Weiyi returned to the Sheng Family Villa. Mr. Sheng had also gone on a business trip, leaving only Miss Tang besides the servants.

Su Weiyi decided to stay at the villa and at night, she took a pillow into her mother’s room.

Regarding her own origins, Miss Tang had never concealed anything from her.

She had only met her birth mother once, who then died due to severe bleeding during childbirth. No one knew who she was, what she did, nor knew her identity, let alone who her father was.

"Mom, when you and Dad separated, did you ever think you’d never be together again in this life?"

Holding onto the quilt, Su Weiyi looked at the person beside her with bright eyes. Miss Tang smiled faintly, "Yes, I thought about it."

"Then why didn’t you accept Uncle Shen at that time?"

In Su Weiyi’s memory, Shen Jiyan was a very important presence. During her childhood, besides her mother, there was Shen Jiyan, who treated her well, like a father.

Though she didn’t understand it back then, as she grew up, Su Weiyi always felt that Shen Jiyan liked her mother; otherwise, he wouldn’t have treated them that way.

But regarding Shen Jiyan and her mother’s feelings, Miss Tang never mentioned it to Su Weiyi. Firstly, there was no need for them to know, and secondly, it wasn’t necessary to talk about.

Now that Su Weiyi brought it up, Miss Tang smiled, "Your Uncle Shen and I both had our hearts set on someone. How could we have been together? Besides, apart from your father, I didn’t want to be with anyone else."

"But at that time, hadn’t you already decided you wouldn’t be together again?"

"We wouldn’t, but not being with him didn’t mean I wanted to be with someone else. Xiao Yi, feelings are quite remarkable. Once you’ve had that person, you won’t settle for anyone else, no matter how good they are, because they’re ultimately not him."

Su Weiyi was stunned. Yes, it’s indeed like this.

Striking directly at the tenderest part deep within her heart.

Is Lu Zhang good? Yes!

But she never thought of trying things with him, not even the so-called cultivating feelings; why? Because he isn’t him!

The boy Su Weiyi liked, from beginning to end, was only Sheng Yanxiao. When thinking about "love" and "the rest of her life," he was the only one she could think of.
