Chapter 492 - Hardened Her Heart and Didn’t Reply to Them
Today, Lin Nuan had turned off her phone for the entire day; now that she finally had time to quiet down, she decided to reply to those texts from her friends.
After she turned on her phone, Lin Nuan’s phone didn’t stop buzzing; texts were flooding in continuously, the constant vibration causing Lin Nuan’s hands to turn numb.
There were way too many messages from WeChat and texts; Lin Jingquan, Liang Mulan, and Lin Chen had all called.
Lin Nuan’s gaze lowered; recalling what she had promised Lin Ran, she hardened her heart and didn’t reply to them.
As for other messages, Lin Nuan replied in order of importance.
Bai Xiaonian was the one who had sent her the most texts, more than ten in a go…
Initially, she was worried about Lin Nuan and urged her to reply to her after she turned her phone back on.
However, later, the tone changed drastically, making Lin Nuan a little confused.
‘Bai Xiaonian: Damn! Your Fu Huai’an is way too handsome! (Astonished face)’
‘Bai Xiaonian: Is your Fu Huai’an trying to make everyone jealous? Forcing all that public affection upon all of us! (Face With Tears of Joy)’
‘Bai Xiaonian: Thank god you met Fu Huai’an in Iraq! Nuan Nuan, you’ve got to thank Wen Moshen and Gu Hanyan for this. I wonder if Gu Hanyan is fuming mad with smoke coming out of her ears right now! Hahaha! (Evil grin)’
‘Bai Xiaonian: Never expected your husband to be so good at flaming emotions. All the ladies who were fantasizing about Fu Huai’an are crying to death on your husband’s Weibo page! (Face With Tears of Joy)’
Lin Nuan was puzzled by Bai Xiaonian’s messages and didn’t have the time to reply to others. Lin Nuan opened her Weibo app, which was followed by continuous vibration. Lin Nuan frantically exited the app and changed the settings on her phone before tapping on the app again.
The number of people who had tagged Lin Nuan had exploded, the number of those leaving comments even more so.
Lin Nuan changed her settings on Weibo and casually went to the homepage. Almost everyone she followed had retweeted a post from someone by the name of “Lin Nuan’s husband.”
Lin Nuan’s heart rate started rocketing…
Because she clearly saw that the person by the name of “Lin Nuan’s husband” had retweeted the post that Fang Yan’s team had uploaded on her official Weibo account…
[@The fair-skinned beauty Bai Xiaonian: I’ll willingly lap up all of this dog food! Our Nuan is the greatest girl in this world! Worthy of the best man in this world! @Lin Nuan’s husband: I don’t want to leave you drifting alone in a sea of people. I don’t want you to be alone while walking through wind and rain. I don’t want to leave you alone bearing the cruelness of this world. @Lin Nuan’s Official Weibo: Regarding the third party rumor, I hereby give an explanation…]
[@Su Manman: For those who accused Lin Nuan of being a third party back then, does your face ache now? (Rolls eyes) @Lin Nuan’s husband: I don’t want to leave you drifting alone in a sea of people. I don’t want you to be alone while walking through wind and rain. I don’t want to leave you alone bearing the cruelness of this world. @Lin Nuan’s Official Weibo: Regarding the third party rumor, I hereby give an explanation…]
[@Song Song Song Yao Yao: My Nuan is the most awesome girl in this world! The most resilient and beautiful mother! The three words Lin Nuan’s husband are truly indicative of how strongly protective of his wife he is, I take my hat off to you! Baby Nuan, I’m already on the way back, you not only have your husband, you also have Xiaonian and me! @Lin Nuan’s husband: I don’t want to leave you drifting alone in a sea of people. I don’t want you to be alone while walking through wind and rain. I don’t want to leave you alone bearing the cruelness of this world. @Lin Nuan’s Official Weibo: Regarding the third party rumor, I hereby give an explanation…]
What was more shocking was that Shi Hanchu had taken Lin Nuan’s side again this time. He didn’t retweet Fu Huai’an’s Weibo post, but he uploaded two photos.
One was that of Fu Huai’an carrying the baby over from Lin Nuan’s arms.
The other was that of Lin Nuan being yanked by the hair as they demanded she hand over her baby. Except in this photo, Shi Hanchu had circled in red the head of the person who was looking up, and it was none other than… Shi Hanchu himself!
Although Shi Hanchu didn’t add any text to this, merely posting these two photos, everyone naturally associated this to the time when Shi Hanchu had voiced his support for Lin Nuan. It was clear to all that Shi Hanchu was still choosing to side with Lin Nuan!
This explained why Shi Hanchu had shown generous support for Lin Nuan; it turned out that Shi Hanchu had known Lin Nuan early on!
Lin Nuan was caught by surprise, as she had no idea Shi Hanchu was there too!
Lin Nuan’s heart was thumping wildly; that meant… Shi Hanchu must have known the kid was Lu Xiangsi’s and not Lin Nuan’s.
But Shi Hanchu still chose to support Lin Nuan, not for other reasons, but for the bravery that Lin Nuan had shown in protecting the child, even disregarding her life. It was also for Lin Nuan’s willingness to stand out and admit to being married and having had a kid in order to protect the child.
Shi Hanchu was a clever man; the minute he saw Lin Nuan explaining on her official Weibo account that Tuan Tuan was her biological son, he had known from that point onwards that Lin Nuan had meant to protect the child and didn’t wish for him to know that his parents were deceased.
Such a reason made Shi Hanchu, who normally didn’t use Weibo, once again log in to Weibo to show his support for her.
Shi Hanchu’s Weibo page was bare-bones, and both recent posts uploaded by him had something to do with Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan was inevitably grateful.
Thereafter, Su Manman retweeted Shi Hanchu’s Weibo post. The shocking thing was, this time, the winner of the Best Actor award actually replied. Although it was just a simple ellipsis, it was enough to lead people to think that there was more to it.
[@Su Manman: @Shi Hanchu: Do you want to consider changing your name to Su Manman’s boyfriend, or I could change my name to Shi Hanchu’s girlfriend?]
However, the show of support from the two megastars Shi Hanchu and Su Manman was nowhere near as shocking as the fact that the account of “Lin Nuan’s husband” belonged to Fu Huai’an.
Perhaps this was because of Su Manman’s previous high-profile declaration of her wanting to bear a child for Shi Hanchu, so everyone had viewed them as a couple already; thus, this was regarded as them merely showing a public display of affection for each other.
However, Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an were different—Lin Nuan’s love life had always been enigmatic, almost becoming a bit like a mystery. So this totally captivated the souls and attention of the netizens, who were dying to find out how Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an had gotten together!
Furthermore, Fu Huai’an’s identity was too special—retired military personnel turned lawyer turned elite businessman, suddenly appearing with a kid and turning Wall Street upside down after having laid low for three years. Not to mention, he was famous for building the Kaide Corporation up to the mega-corporation every household had heard of today.
Such a Fu Huai’an felt more legendary than even the winner of the Best Actor award, Shi Hanchu! Truly an outstanding man.
Lin Nuan was the opposite of Fu Huai’an; her name was synonymous with the word tragic!
People had always been fascinated with Cinderella’s story, hence for the nosy audience, their interest in Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an naturally exceeded that of Shi Hanchu and Su Manman.
