Mr Fu, I Really Love You
/ Mr Fu, I Really Love You Chapter 13
Tuan Tuan saw the kid opposite their table splattering his face with ice-cream, his mother chuckling and wiping it off the corner of her little sweetheart's mouth—his heart ached with longing at the scene .
He took a peek at Lin Nuan and felt a sinking feeling inside… he, too, had ice cream splattered all over his face .
When Tuan Tuan dropped his head to take another scoop of ice cream, a soft, slender finger suddenly grasped his head .
He looked up and saw Lin Nuan wipe his mouth gently with a handkerchief .
"Eat slower… look at the mess on your face . " Lin Nuan's voice sounded so lovely, just like the first time he heard it on the radio station . It was so soft—soft enough to make people feel fuzzy inside .
"Okay!" Tuan Tuan nodded . But he didn't want to eat slower . He liked the way Lin Nuan gently wiped the corner of his mouth when he made a huge mess on his face . It felt like he was being lovingly adored by a mother .
Bai Xiaonian sat across Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan, chewing on her straw . She crossed her long, slender legs, a troubled expression written all over her face .
"Are you really… going to marry Fu Huai'an?" Bai Xiaonian felt Lin Nuan's decision was too rash .
Lin Nuan nodded .
Bai Xiaonian knew Lin Nuan was smart . She was sure that Lin Nuan knew that Gu Hanyan was just using her, but she was actually willing to let herself be used for Wen Moshen .
"But what about your happiness?" Bai Xiaonian asked again, "And what about that dignified fiancé the Lin Family arranged for you?"
"That was the fiancé they prepared for a daughter of the Lin family . Their legitimate daughters should be the ones marrying into the Gu Family—"
Lin Nuan stopped herself mid-speech .
Of course, the Gu Family wasn't going to let a woman with a mentally disabled mother marry their only son .
Bai Xiaonian knew Lin Nuan all too well . The real reason was that Lin Nuan had no feelings towards the young Sir from the Gu Family . If she did, she wouldn't have managed to say all that so nonchalantly .
"Is it all worth it then… just for Wen Moshen?" Bai Xiaonian asked, her beautiful eyebrows furrowing together . Obviously, she thought it wasn't .
Lin Nuan looked down and chuckled . "Even if it was, I still owe Moshen's brother . Maybe he won't hold a grudge anymore after this?"
"Just keep lying to yourself . " Bai Xiaonian sighed .
Lin Nuan's head fell as she let out a faint laugh, a blank expression covering her face .
Out of all people, how could Bai Xiaonian not be aware of Lin Nuan's gratitude towards Wen Moshen?
Yet it wasn't Lin Nuan lying to herself . After all, it was her final warning to herself . She felt it was time to let go—let go of her past with Wen Moshen .
At exactly three-twenty, Lin Nuan's phone rang . Fu Huai'an was calling .
"I need to go…" Lin Nuan grabbed her purse and glanced at Tuan Tuan who had already finished his ice-cream . "Tuan Tuan, let's go . Your father is here . "
"Okay!" Tuan Tuan nodded .
Bai Xiaonian sat in the ice-cream shop, watching as Lin Nuan walked towards the black Bentley parked on the roadside, Tuan Tuan nestled in her arms .
Under the sunlight, Fu Huai'an stood at the rear end of the car, his lips biting a cigarette . He stood there in his navy fitted suit, the top unbuttoned, revealing the white, neatly ironed shirt underneath . He didn't wear a tie .
His mannerisms exuded the sophistication and intellect of a cultivated alpha male, intimidating people at mere sight .
Bai Xiaonian crossed her feet and rested her chin on her hand . She had to admit Fu Huai'an, and Lin Nuan looked like a great match .
Bai Xiaonian had heard about Fu Huai'an . He was notoriously cold, especially towards women . So many of them had attempted to approach him upon hearing about his power in the lawyer world, yet they all received terrible ends .
But why did Gu Hanyan turn down Fu Huai'an, a man with such credentials who was willing to marry her, and instead turned to Lin Nuan to ask for help?
