Chapter 402: Chapter 402: Ambition Rises

The moment her eyes opened, Fu Han was stunned. Gone was the thick fog that enveloped everything around her, replaced by a stark whiteness—she was clearly in her ward.

What surprised her even more was the person before her eyes. She looked at Su Cheng with widened eyes, "Why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to be in A city?"

After Fu Han had decided to go to A city, Su Cheng asked her for her flight schedule and then told her he had other commitments on that day and might not be able to see her off.

For Fu Han, Su Cheng had always been just a friend. Moreover, because of the feelings Su Cheng had for her, facing him always made her want to run away. Therefore, when Su Cheng said he couldn’t see her off, instead of feeling sad, Fu Han actually felt a sense of relief.

Yet now, Su Cheng had appeared out of nowhere before her, a shock that was truly surprising.

Su Cheng hid the distress in his eyes entirely, a flush of red stealthily creeping up his cheeks as he said softly, "I... actually, I came to M Country on the same flight as you. It’s just that when I bought the ticket, only economy class was left, so you didn’t know."

"I see." Fu Han nodded, still under the influence of her recent dream, and couldn’t help but say in a low voice, "Actually, you really didn’t have to do this. I wouldn’t have any problems here on my own."

The ward, already quiet, lacked even the sound of birds from outside. But after Fu Han’s remark, the atmosphere inside became oppressively heavy, as if an invisible vacuum had sucked all the air out of the room.

Su Cheng slightly lowered his head, his long, thick eyelashes completely shielding his eyelids, making it impossible to see the look in his eyes.

A few seconds later, he looked up smiling, his eyes brimming with laughter, "Fu Han, you don’t think I came to M Country because of you, do you? Our company is expanding its business, and as the boss, I ought to come here to check things out."

"Business expansion?" The term suddenly seemed so foreign to Fu Han at the moment, probably because she hadn’t worked in a long time. It seemed like ever since the shooting of "Pensive Return" was finished, her workload had decreased drastically.

As soon as work was mentioned, the glint returned to Su Cheng’s eyes. He explained patiently, "Our company’s business is very broad, covering wedding photography and outsourcing work. Ever since we filmed the ’Pensive Return’ movie, the company has grown significantly. In the past six months, we have opened studios in major cities across the country, and now we are even trying to expand into the international market. Once we have the research results, I’ll discuss it with you."

While he was talking, Fu Han listened, but by the end, she hadn’t fully grasped it, responding reflexively, "Discuss it with me?"

"Yeah, discuss it with you." Su Cheng’s face involuntarily softened with gentleness as he looked at her. He chuckled, his voice unconsciously lowering, "You’ve forgotten, you’re the second-largest shareholder of our company."

"I’m sorry, I had forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned it." Fu Han smiled. She had truly forgotten. Initially, she didn’t remember because of her amnesia, and even after regaining her memories from the past, she hadn’t given much thought to her professional affairs.

The fog outside had cleared, replaced by the night. In this city, nightfall always came so abruptly, before one had a chance to prepare, it was already upon you.

Perhaps due to an inner tenacity, Fu Han hadn’t adjusted her phone’s time setting to the local time after arriving, so she was habitually using her phone’s time to gauge whether it was dark yet.

Fu Han’s hand lifted slightly, and the lights brightened the entire room. The incandescent light was a bit dazzling, causing Fu Han to squint her eyes lazily like a cat.

Su Cheng’s gaze clung to Fu Han like glue. He swallowed subconsciously—unaware sexiness, it seemed, was exactly this.

Despite the fact that Fu Han was currently wearing loose-fitting, unflattering clothes, despite her hair being messy from sleep, and despite the tear stains dried at the corners of her eyes, Su Cheng still found her the epitome of allure.

While greedily gazing at Fu Han, Su Cheng felt his heart melting into a puddle.

At this moment, his soul seemed to float free from his body, dizzily hovering as it foolishly gazed at Fu Han. He heard his own silly voice rise, "Fu Han, it’s alright if you don’t remember. Rest assured, when it’s time for the year-end dividends, I won’t shortchange you a penny."

When Su Cheng realized what he had said, it was already too late to take it back.

He really wanted to slap himself twice; talking about money with Fu Han was the most vulgar thing imaginable—especially since he had always viewed money as insignificant since he was young.

Waiting for Fu Han’s response, each second felt as long as a century.

Fu Han straightened up slightly, casually flicking the stray hairs on her cheeks aside. The simple gesture had its own distinct charm.

Her lips slightly parted; a smile began to spread across her face, "Business is about honesty. If I couldn’t trust you with this much, how could we cooperate?"

Su Cheng’s eyes widened at Fu Han’s reaction. He hadn’t expected his words not only to not anger her, but even to make her laugh. He was so shocked that he couldn’t think of anything to say to her.

Fu Han touched her chin as if pondering something. After a few minutes, she spoke again, "Su Cheng, you’ll have to bear with it for this period. Once my surgery is done, I’ll work with you to strive for our business expansion."

"Sure... sure." Su Cheng was so thrilled he didn’t know what else to say, just repeating ’sure’ over and over like a fool.

If he couldn’t have Fu Han’s love for the time being, but could fight alongside her, he felt it would be a fine thing indeed.

However, if Fu Han knew what Su Cheng was thinking, she probably would have been speechless.

Fu Han’s thoughts were simple: no matter what happened, she wouldn’t give up on life. Furthermore, she was determined to live well.

For Fu Han, living well meant she couldn’t be like a parasite dependent on others. She needed to enhance her strength, earn her own money, build her own career, and ensure her financial independence without reliance on anyone else.

The two of them talked enthusiastically about expanding the business in A city, becoming more and more excited as they chatted. Eventually, Su Cheng even took out a tablet computer from his bag and began discussing the business details with Fu Han on the spot.
