Chapter 966 - They Got Married?
She would always worry for them, afraid they might be duped or bullied.
Just now, Cen Mo didn’t interrupt Song Yao and Lin Nuan’s conversation either. After he changed his clothes, he happened to see Tuan Tuan dragging Lin Nuan up the stairs.
Cen Mo, who was fixing his sleeves, lowered his gaze and looked at the fair Tuan Tuan in his white sweater, asking jubilantly, “What is Tuan Tuan doing?”
“Changing clothes!”
The little one spoke those two words with good articulation. Lin Nuan, who was dragged up the stairs, brushed shoulders with Cen Mo.
Watching as the little one went up the stairs, Cen Mo smiled and retracted his gaze. When he walked to the living room, the smile in his eyes still didn’t dissipate. “Done talking?”
Song Yao nodded. Not wanting Cen Mo to ask what she and Lin Nuan were talking about, she said, “You’re really fond of Tuan Tuan…”
She could tell that Cen Mo liked Tuan Tuan very much. Cen Mo was actually a very cold person, so apart from people he truly cared about, Cen Mo rarely smiled at someone.
Cen Mo nodded. “Blood ties are a magical thing. So long as we’re together, I naturally have this feeling of closeness to him!”
Song Yao merely smiled and said nothing, a little distracted. Only when she heard Cen Mo urging her to go upstairs to change her clothes and prepare to eat dinner did she pull his hand and wheedled to him, asking him to accompany her upstairs.
…
When Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan pushed open the door to the bedroom, they didn’t see Fu Huai’an. He was on the phone in the bathroom.
The little one stood at the door, pointing to the sweater on the bed… a look of anticipation on his face.
Lin Nuan nodded. “Okay, Mama will wash her face and then change into this!”
Tuan Tuan satisfactorily stood on his tiptoes and closed the door, obediently waiting outside.
Tuan Tuan, who was merely four years old, had already learned in kindergarten that when girls changed their clothes, boys shouldn’t look. Hence, the little one closed the door and waited outside obediently while Lin Nuan changed her clothes inside.
The little one stood outside the door, lowering his head and staring at the brand-new white sweater on his body, a blissful smile in his eyes.
When Lin Nuan pushed open the bathroom door, Fu Huai’an had just hung up the phone. The unremoved camouflage paint on his well-defined jaw was still there. Lin Nuan looked at Fu Huai’an, who had yet to put on the sweater, with a smile on her face. She drew a tissue and made it wet, then reached out to help Fu Huai’an wipe off the camouflage paint on his jaw.
“I wanted to tell you just now that your camouflage paint wasn’t thoroughly removed…”
Fu Huai’an grabbed Lin Nuan’s petite hand that was helping him remove the paint. Pinching her jaw, he pecked Lin Nuan on her lips, then raised his head and grazed Lin Nuan’s lips with his thumb.
Lin Nuan’s ears turned a little red. She yanked away Fu Huai’an’s scalding large hand that was cupped on the side of her face, gazing at Fu Huai’an with moist eyes as she said, “Tuan Tuan is still outside. He’s waiting for us to change our clothes and go out!”
Lin Nuan seriously wiped the paint from Fu Huai’an’s face, then continued, “Just now, I promised Sister Yan to reveal to the public the fact that you acted as the stunt double of the male lead. Is that okay?”
“Mm, okay…”
“You’re probably the most big-shot stunt double in history!” Lin Nuan couldn’t resist looking up and smiling at Fu Huai’an.
“There’s a matter I promised on your behalf too…” Fu Huai’an said.
“What is it?”
“Lu Jinnan duped a drunk Bai Xiaonian into getting married in Las Vegas. Bai Xiaonian is so furious that she wants a divorce. I promised Lu Jinnan that you’d help talk to Bai Xiaonian!” Fu Huai’an couldn’t conceal the smile in his voice as he said this.
Lin Nuan paused in surprise, then beamed too. “They got married?”
Fu Huai’an nodded.
Actually, regarding Lu Jinnan, Lin Nuan did hope that he would get together with Bai Xiaonian…
As Bai Xiaonian’s friend, Lin Nuan understood Bai Xiaonian too well. Lin Nuan knew that Bai Xiaonian loved Lu Jinnan.
This good news came too suddenly. Lin Nuan whipped out her phone, anxious to call Bai Xiaonian, yet she couldn’t help complaining. She said, “Lu Jinnan is too rash. How could he dupe her when it comes to something like marriage? Based on Bai Xiaonian’s personality, she certainly wouldn’t acknowledge it after she sobered up!”
Lin Nuan knew very well what Bai Xiaonian was like when she got drunk, and Lu Jinnan knew even better!
This was why Lu Jinnan resorted to this tactic, planning to get married first and talk about the rest later!
“Don’t be so anxious to call her now!” Fu Huai’an took the phone from Lin Nuan’s hand. “If Bai Xiaonian hasn’t told you about it, pretend you know nothing first. This is, after all, a matter that concerns the two of them. As outsiders, it’s not our place to interfere. If you call now, Bai Xiaonian will feel that even her best friend has been bribed by Lu Jinnan…”
Flustered out of her concern for Bai Xiaonian, Lin Nuan was indeed too anxious.
She nodded, genuinely happy inside!
Previously, the greatest barrier between Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian was Bai Xiaonian going over to America. Lu Jinnan wanted Bai Xiaonian to stay in China and marry him.
Bai Xiaonian cared about Lu Jinnan, but she was unable to abandon the dream she had with her mother as her role model. During that period, she was in great pain too…
Now that Lu Jinnan was in America and the two of them had gotten married first, it was a good thing. Also, as Fu Huai’an said, she ought to let them handle it first. If Bai Xiaonian told her about this matter, she could then tactfully persuade Bai Xiaonian.
Originally, Fu Huai’an had thought that Lu Jinnan would never believe in women again in this lifetime, nor fall in love again. Who knew, in the end, Lu Jinnan would fall for Lin Nuan’s best friend, Bai Xiaonian!
Fu Huai’an pulled Lin Nuan into his embrace, saying softly to Lin Nuan by her ear, “Xiao Nuan, you truly are my lucky star!”
Lin Nuan understood what Fu Huai’an meant. She hugged Fu Huai’an tightly by his narrow waist. “You, then, are the greatest cheat code in my life!”
Tuan Tuan, who had been waiting outside for a long time, cautiously pushed open the door. Seeing Mama’s sweater still placed on the bed but not seeing Mama anywhere, he came bouncing in. After looking left and right, he looked shocked and dazed. How did Mama disappear?
The little one bounced to the bathroom door, pressing his tiny palm and ear to the door, trying to hear the sounds inside. When he heard Mama say “stop fooling around,” he anxiously pushed open the bathroom door, only to see Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an hugging. The little one shouted out loud, “Mama!”
Lin Nuan was startled.
“Papa! Mama!” Tuan Tuan shouted as he bounced over. Before Lin Nuan could push Fu Huai’an away, the little one had already pounced over, hugging Lin Nuan by her leg.
Tuan Tuan was unhappy. Papa and Mama were secretly hugging behind his back in the bathroom! He also wanted to hug!
The unhappy little fellow looked up, an aggrieved expression on his face. He squeezed his round little body between Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s legs, gazing at Lin Nuan with watery eyes and raising his hands up high. “Mama, hug!”
“Why are you joining in on the fun?” Fu Huai’an looked at the little meat dumpling that had squeezed his way between the two of them, a displeased look on his face.
The little meat dumpling was convinced Papa was a big baddie. First, he had secretly dumped him to look for Mama, and now, he was secretly hugging Mama behind his back! Papa was a big baddie!
Lin Nuan bent over and lifted the little one up, who, in turn, circled his arms around Lin Nuan’s neck tightly before grunting at Fu Huai’an.
