Mr Fu, I Really Love You-Novel2

Chapter 699 I Don’t Wish to Be Apart From You Again in the Future

The moment Fu Huai’an came back, it felt as if Lin Nuan’s heart had found its place of belonging. She felt very assured, and when she did things, she wasn’t as restless as she was when Fu Huai’an wasn’t around.

…

This time around, the people from the military had taken Fu Huai’an away. And it was really as Li Muyang had said, that Fu Huai’an was cleared of all suspicions.

Those people would probably not set their eyes on Fu Huai’an and his family anymore.

It was just that after Fu Huai’an’s suspicions were cleared, things wouldn’t be that good for Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng.

Those people had mostly targeted Fu Huai’an previously, but after this, they would probably change their targets…

Tang Zheng had wanted to take this opportunity to develop a closer relationship with his daughter, Little Candy, and to win back You Nainai, thereafter leading a good life with his wife and daughter. However, for the sake of their safety, Tang Zheng could only put aside this beautiful wish for now!

After all, You Nainai and Little Candy’s safety was the most important.

Recently, Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian’s relationship was on the rocks due to the marriage proposal. Lu Jinnan had always been hesitating about whether he should look for Bai Xiaonian again. If Bai Xiaonian felt that it was too rushed for her to get into a relationship now, they could put it off a little longer.

However, if Lu Jinnan were to do that now, those people would definitely target Bai Xiaonian in an attempt to sound out Lu Jinnan…

Moreover, unlike Tang Zheng, Lu Jinnan’s father and younger brother were both in the country!

It’d be easier for those people to sound out Lu Jinnan than Tang Zheng. Therefore, Fu Huai’an told Lu Jinnan to be extra careful about his family’s safety. If Lu Jinnan were to place more care on his father and younger brother, it’d be certain that he wouldn’t have that much effort to spend on taking care of Bai Xiaonian!

However, long before those people came to Haicheng, Gu Qingcheng had already sent people to assure Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng’s safety.

Tang Zheng also had some influence in Haicheng in the dark. Even if something were to happen, he’d have nothing to fear. However, there would always be a small chance that things might not turn out as expected.

Fu Huai’an drew out a cigarette and clamped it between his long and slender fingers with clear joints. He leaned against the table in the study and looked at Tang Zheng and Lu Jinnan, who were both seated on the sofa, frowning deeply. Fu Huai’an then slowly said, “Rather than wait for others to sound us out and convince them that none of us is who they are looking for, we might as well use the most straightforward method…”

Lu Jinnan looked at Fu Huai’an, and his eyes contracted slightly. “You mean, to take care of them in Haicheng?”

Fu Huai’an lowered his head and lit the cigarette with a match. He then swung the match to extinguish it and placed it casually into an ashtray. He moved the cigarette away from his mouth, and the white smoke that came out blurred the cold gaze in his deep eyes.

“If we were to be bullied in Haicheng, wouldn’t we be too useless?” After having held back for so long, it was true that Tang Zheng didn’t wish to hold back anymore.

“I know that the two of you have always been holding it in, fearing that you’d bring trouble for Qingcheng.” Fu Huai’an tapped the cigarette’s ash and said with a calm tone, “But since this is our turf… we should act properly.”

“Old Gu has his own limits and ways of doing things. If we take action, should we touch base with Old Gu?” Tang Zheng asked.

Fu Huai’an’s phone vibrated, and the hand with which he was holding his cigarette picked up the phone. Seeing that it was a WeChat message, he tapped it open while concurrently saying, “We’d be bringing Qingcheng trouble if we overly accommodate him…”

Although everyone knew that Gu Qingcheng’s friends were in Haicheng, they also knew that his friends weren’t involved in that area of business. If in whatever they did, they had to take Gu Qingcheng into consideration, people might be able to tell that something was amiss.

Therefore, they might as well be more straightforward with things, doing things in their own manner in Haicheng! It’d be fine even if they were to catch Gu Qingcheng unaware…

Having thought through things, Tang Zheng nodded.

The WeChat message was sent by Little Lu. It was a screenshot of the news headings of Lin Nuan meeting Li Muyang…

[Online rumors have it that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s wedding date is nearing. Lin Nuan has a secret rendezvous with a mysterious wealthy man. The wedding date is a mystery.]

[Mysterious fan confesses on TV. Renowned host Lin Nuan has a secret rendezvous with the mysterious man. Is the red light flashing for the Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan couple?] action

[Astonishing news! Mysterious big shot from the United States rushed to confess on a show in Haicheng. Can the pursuit that traverses country borders turn out successful?]

[Renowned host’s marriage becomes a mystery. Might be two-timing two luxurious cruises.]

[Revelation of Lin Nuan’s mysterious fan! So rich that it’s beyond your imagination!]

[Bachelor boss of a weapon manufacturer in the United States courting married lady Lin Nuan. The young married lady was unable to hold back and had a secret rendezvous with him.]

What Little Lu sent him were news headlines that were very crude and clearly intended to attract attention. These were clearly the work of paparazzi.

Fu Huai’an half-squinted his eyes. Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng had already told Fu Huai’an earlier that Lin Nuan had met Li Muyang in the afternoon. Fu Huai’an was well aware that Lin Nuan had only gone for his sake.

However, it was true that these news headings weren’t pleasant to look at.

Little Lu sent an additional message after the screenshots, asking how to deal with things and to explain things for Lin Nuan…

‘Little Lu: When Madam went, You Nainai followed along as well. Sir, should we deal with this fake news?’

Fu Huai’an brought the cigarette to his mouth and bit down on it, half-squinting his eyes as he replied to Little Lu with two words—no need.

If they were to deal with the news now, the paparazzi might write more rubbish in the future.

Fu Huai’an put down his phone and moved the cigarette away to tap the gray ash. “Don’t drag this matter. Deal with them all tonight.”

Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng understood Fu Huai’an’s intentions and nodded.

“Tang Zheng and I will act on it immediately!” After saying that, Lu Jinnan stood up with a tensed expression that seemed a little scary.

…

That night, Lu Jinnan, Tang Zheng, and Fu Huai’an had a long discussion in the study. It was only after Lin Nuan had coaxed Tuan Tuan to sleep and came out from his room that Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng came out from Fu Huai’an’s study.

“Are you leaving?” Lin Nuan asked Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng.

“En!” Lu Jinnan nodded.

Hiding the troubles from this face, Tang Zheng smiled and said to Lin Nuan, “It’s too late. You and Old Fu should rest early too.”

Lin Nuan nodded and sent Tang Zheng and Lu Jinnan down without asking anything.

Her phone kept on vibrating on the coffee table. Earlier on, when Lin Nuan was bathing Tuan Tuan and coaxing him to sleep, she had left her phone on the coffee table downstairs and hadn’t brought it upstairs with her. Fang Yan called her five to six times, but Lin Nuan hadn’t picked up the call. After sending off Tang Zheng and Lu Jinnan, Lin Nuan came back and happened to see the vibrating phone on the coffee table.

When the line got through, Fang Yan asked, “You went to meet the man who confessed to you on the show?”

Lin Nuan recalled that when she was at the cafe meeting Li Muyang and took off her mask, someone in the cafe had taken photos in her and Li Muyang’s direction. It could be that someone in the cafe had uploaded to Weibo or shared it in their social circle.

“En. We met this afternoon over some matters,” Lin Nuan replied.

Fang Yan had initially thought that others had mistaken someone else for Lin Nuan and planned on sending up a clarification post on Lin Nuan’s official Weibo account after Lin Nuan denied this thing. She hadn’t expected Lin Nuan to admit it.

“Don’t tell me that you haven’t gone online for the entire afternoon!” Fang Yan said.

“En. I was a little busy in the afternoon and didn’t check…”

Fang Yan sighed. “Why did you meet that person in the afternoon? At least get your husband to accompany you! Don’t hang up. Switch on your computer and take a look!”

Lin Nuan was perplexed by Fang Yan’s words and brought out the laptop from under the coffee table, switching it on…

While the laptop was turning on, Lin Nuan asked Fang Yan, “Did the netizens say that I had a date with my fan?”

Fang Yan was browsing the news while wearing her spectacles. She pinched her forehead. “It’d be good if it was that simple. It’s just that this man’s identity is too special…”

After Fang Yan said this, Lin Nuan’s laptop had already turned on. She opened up the news page, and the big news headings were very piercing to the eyes.

[Explosive news! A third party has gotten in between Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan’s relationship.]

[Online rumors have it that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s wedding date is nearing. Lin Nuan has a secret rendezvous with a mysterious wealthy man. The wedding date is a mystery.]

[Mysterious fan confesses on air. Lin Nuan has a secret rendezvous with the mysterious man. Their relationship is a mystery!]

[Great wealthy magnate from the United States wooing Lin Nuan! Is this a red light for the marriage for the Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan couple?]

[Astonishing news! Mysterious big shot from the United States rushed to confess on a show in Haicheng. Lin Nuan has a secret rendezvous. Will she be moved?]

[Revelation of Lin Nuan’s mysterious fan! So rich that it’s beyond your imagination!]

[Fu Huai’an and mysterious magnate, who has a greater net worth? Who will Lin Nuan end up being with?]

[Bachelor boss of a weapon manufacturer in the United States courting married lady Lin Nuan. The duo had a secret rendezvous with intimate actions!]

Lin Nuan was infuriated after seeing these.

In the past, when she saw any news articles that wrote rubbish about her, she’d just let them be. However, they were bringing in her and Fu Huai’an’s marriage, and Lin Nuan couldn’t hold back her fury.

“What is all this rubbish?” Lin Nuan couldn’t help but frown.

Fang Yan was about to say something when her phone vibrated. Another call had come in…

She took a look and saw that the incoming call was from Fu Huai’an.

Fang Yan was given a shock. She immediately removed her spectacles and said to Lin Nuan, “I’ll call you back later. I have another call!”

Fang Yan felt very uneasy. While she was talking with Lin Nuan, Fu Huai’an called her. Did that mean that the two of them weren’t together? Could it be… that there was a problem in their relationship because of that American man’s appearance?

Fang Yan hadn’t been able to ask Lin Nuan in detail previously either. She took a sip of water, cleared her throat, and then picked up Fu Huai’an’s call. “Hello, Mr. Fu…”

“Ms. Fang, what do you think about announcing our wedding news through Xiao Nuan’s official Weibo account?” Fu Huai’an spoke slowly. “If you think that this is feasible, then I’ll also concurrently announce our wedding news on my Weibo account!”

Hearing this, Fang Yan understood that there weren’t any problems in the relationship between Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an. She heaved a sigh of relief, thought about it for a moment, then nodded. “It would be even better if there were wedding photographs, but I heard from Nuan Nuan that you guys haven’t had them taken yet.”

“I’ll get someone to send your agency a copy when the wedding photographs come out in a few days. Xiao Nuan’s official Weibo account can announce that there’ll be an official announcement in a few days after the wedding photographs are taken. This will make it sound more convincing. As for that mysterious fan… you don’t have to pay him any heed.”

Fang Yan felt that there wasn’t a problem with Fu Huai’an’s solution. She agreed and then tried to sound Fu Huai’an out. “Then, should I inform Nuan Nuan about this?”

“I’ll do it. You can just focus on your work…”

After hanging up the call, Fang Yan felt assured.

She had wondered if Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an had gotten into a quarrel and was still considering how she should deal with this.

Now that the news had already gotten to this stage, others would probably feel that they were trying to cover up stuff if Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan were to come out and clarify things.

If Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an continued to announce their wedding news now and indicated that there would be an official release of Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s wedding photographs, it’d be a lot more convincing.

As for the messed up news, rather than trying to explain it, it’d be better just to say something along the lines of—a wise man doesn’t believe in rumors.

At the thought of this, Fang Yan no longer hesitated. She let the staff in charge of publicity prepare to release the wedding announcement for Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s wedding.

Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s wedding date was to be on New Year’s Day. Both Fang Yan and Miss Xia knew about this.

Lin Nuan naturally had to invite the two of them to her wedding. It was just that, when she informed them previously, she told them not to inform the media. She didn’t wish for her wedding to attract too much attention.

In fact, during this period of time, although the news of Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s wedding had been kept under wraps, there was the saying that two could only keep a secret if one of them was killed. The news still leaked, but the media didn’t know of the exact date. Even the dates announced online were just guesses…

This time around, Lin Nuan and Li Muyang’s meeting had suddenly been exposed. This was all because of the paparazzi who made groundless accusations wanting to find out about their wedding date. They had silently tracked down Lin Nuan and hadn’t expected to dig out the big news of Lin Nuan’s secret rendezvous with her fan!

This was especially so considering this fan had confessed to Lin Nuan on a show before. Moreover, this fan’s identity was too astonishing. It was hard for one’s imagination to not run wild with Lin Nuan meeting him secretly.

…

Lin Nuan didn’t open the articles to see how they described her. She only browsed through the headings to see what the paparazzi wrote.

Fu Huai’an came down and saw Lin Nuan seated on the carpet in the living room, browsing through those news articles on her laptop.

He walked up opposite Lin Nuan, bent over, and picked up the laptop…

“Hey!”

Lin Nuan gasped and lifted her head. Her brows furrowed tightly when she saw Fu Huai’an closing up the laptop and putting it to the side.

“Don’t worry, Fang Yan has gotten them settled!” Fu Huai’an smiled at Lin Nuan. “Let’s go up to rest!”

Lin Nuan didn’t stand up. She raised her head and asked Fu Huai’an, “You aren’t angry that I went to meet Li Muyang?”

“Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng told me about it. You did this for me. Xiao Nuan, I’m very happy.” When Fu Huai’an said this, his eyes were filled with sincerity.

The ears of the big fat cat who was sleeping in its cage twitched. It opened its eyes sluggishly and threw a glance in the direction of its male and female owner, then went back to sleep peacefully.

Fu Huai’an’s tall and slender figure stood under the living room’s light, and his shadow covered up Lin Nuan within it…

Hearing Fu Huai’an’s words, Lin Nuan couldn’t help but feel touched. There was no one else in the house, and Lin Nuan couldn’t hold back. She moved around the coffee table to hug Fu Huai’an’s strong waist, burying her head into his chest!

All of the uneasiness she had felt when Fu Huai’an wasn’t at home had turned into grievances and tears that welled up in her eyes.

“I don’t want to be apart from you again in the future, not even for a day!” Lin Nuan choked.

Fu Huai’an embraced Lin Nuan’s skinny shoulders and held her tightly in his arms. His low and deep voice was filled with endless warmth. “It won’t happen again in the future…”

Lin Nuan buried her face in Fu Huai’an’s embrace.

Fu Huai’an could sense the slight moisture on his chest, and he carried Lin Nuan horizontally.

Fu Huai’an’s eyes met Lin Nuan’s red eyes, and he said solemnly, “It won’t happen again in the future!”

Lin Nuan nodded, and her arms wrapped around Fu Huai’an’s neck tightly as she sneezed uncontrollably.

“You caught a cold?” Fu Huai’an paused in his steps and asked.

Lin Nuan rubbed her itchy nose. “It looks like I might have…”

“Have you taken medicine?” Fu Huai’an’s eyes were filled with concern.

“I don’t think I need to take medicine. I should be fine after taking a warm bath and getting some sleep. Medicine can also be poisonous. We should still rely on our own body’s resistance!”

The moment Lin Nuan said this, she displayed a strong pose.

With Fu Huai’an by her side, Lin Nuan felt a lot more relaxed. It was apparent from both her choice of words and her tone.

Fu Huai’an approved of what Lin Nuan said about how medicine could also be poisonous. He kissed his wife’s lips and carried her upstairs.

…

Fu Huai’an carried Lin Nuan and laid her down on the big and soft bed. There wasn’t the passionate embrace that should have happened since absence made the heart grow fonder.

It was as if it was already the most blissful thing in the world when the two of them embraced each other tightly like this.

Lin Nuan cuddled up in Fu Huai’an’s arms and spoke softly with her eyes closed, “You weren’t around last night, and I couldn’t sleep even when I was cuddling Tuan Tuan. Right now, I feel especially at ease and sleepy being in your arms…”

“Aren’t you going to take a hot bath?” Fu Huai’an asked.

“I’m too tired. Can you let me slack for a day?”

Fu Huai’an could hear the strong fatigue in Lin Nuan’s voice. After Fu Huai’an came back, Lin Nuan felt very much at ease. It was as if her soul had returned to her.

This allowed Lin Nuan to realize that her feeling of safety was tied to Fu Huai’an!

It was also because of this that unprecedented sleepiness overtook Lin Nuan as she cuddled up in Fu Huai’an’s arms.

“You’ve sneezed a few times!”

Fu Huai’an could still hear Lin Nuan sniffling. It didn’t seem to be a slight cold.

“If you wish to have a hot bath, then I’ll help you… Hmm?” Fu Huai’an’s voice sounded out extremely gently next to Lin Nuan’s ear.

Lin Nuan, who was so tired that her eyes were closed, let out a soft laugh. “I don’t want that. If I were to let you help, who knows if we’d end up fooling around in the bathroom! I still want to conserve some energy. I still have to shoot the publicity film for the new show tomorrow, and we’ll be taking wedding photographs the day after. I feel that I need to have a good sleep! I feel that I might not even have the energy to film the new show’s publicity video. I’ll have to inform Sister Yan and let her postpone it! I really have no energy to fool around with you today!”

“I won’t do anything today. I’ll let you have a good rest today so that we can enjoy ourselves thoroughly tomorrow…”

Fu Huai’an’s words caused Lin Nuan’s ears to burn up, and her sleepiness was instantly showing signs of being driven away.

Lin Nuan turned and looked into Fu Huai’an’s pitch-black eyes that were like the night view outside the windows. The fatigue in her eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by the clarity of black obsidian.

There was burning lust in his eyes, though it hadn’t fully awakened.

Just by their glances meeting, an emotion that could invade one’s rationality, like a plant that was good at climbing high walls, easily surmounted Lin Nuan’s fatigue and rapidly took over her body and heart.

Lin Nuan bit her lip. She turned her head, circled both arms around Fu Huai’an’s neck, and turned over to press down on him…
