Her pride and self-esteem couldn't allow her to indulge repeatedly in one man, so even though she had known and collaborated with Fu Jinghen for many years, she never revealed her feelings. The drunken call she made last night was her final effort, but she hadn't expected Wen Qiao to overhear her words.
When Fu Jinghen called again, she did harbor fantasies; she was gambling that Fu Jinghen would come to find her after getting her address.
But it turned out she was thinking too much. The call from Fu Jinghen was probably just out of simple humanity, not because he had feelings for her.
When she suddenly learned that Fu Jinghen had a woman he admired, she felt unwilling to accept it, yet she also felt a twinge of regret.
If she had told Fu Jinghen about her feelings earlier, maybe she would be the one standing by his side now.
