[Legal aid lawyer x factory owner's son, reunited after years apart, secretly in love with each other]
Lin Ting had always been afraid of Fu Shi'an.
First, because she was the daughter of the Fu family's housekeeper, and they came from different worlds.
Second, because Fu Shi'an was never kind to her.
Thanks to Mrs. Fu's generosity, Lin Ting lived with the Fu family for two years. Spending every day with Fu Shi'an during that time was torture.
She had a congenital stutter and struggled to speak, but Fu Shi'an was always ordering her around coldly. "Lin Ting, finish your sentence. I can't understand you." "Lin Ting, speak up. Are you a mosquito?"
Fu Shi'an made no secret of how much he disliked her. Lin Ting hid away the birthday present she'd saved up to buy and lost the courage to give it to him.
For some reason, Fu Shi'an didn't celebrate his birthday that year and flew into a terrible temper. No one around him dared to say a word.
Back then, Lin Ting thought: I need to stay away from Fu Shi'an. As far away as possible.
Later, Lin Ting went to university, studied the law she'd always admired, met new friends, and gradually began to forget that innocent flutter of a crush. Only occasionally did she hear rumors that the young master of the Fu family had been unhappy for years, as if he had someone hidden in his heart.
Lin Ting was a little surprised. Did Fu Shi'an even need to pine after someone?
Then one day, while working on a workplace injury dispute, Lin Ting went to the factory Fu Shi'an had just taken over, and the two ran into each other.
"Fu, Fu..." She hadn't stuttered like that in ages. For a moment, she couldn't even say his name.
But Fu Shi'an waited patiently, his gaze tender, until she managed to say the last syllable. Only then did he speak. "Long time no see, Lin Ting."
