Chapter 333 - Some Kind of Unspoken Understanding
“What made you come over at this time?” asked Fu Huai’an with one hand in his pocket. He looked at Chu Xun with a polite smile, looking like a fine gentleman.
She kept her phone in her bag and raised up the bags of toys and clothes in her hand. Her face looked especially attractive in the night as she said, “I’m moving back to stay at Tianfu Bay today, I dropped by on the way to come see Tuan Tuan…”
Without waiting for Fu Huai’an to open his mouth, Chu Xun’s gaze looked inside the house naturally, and she raised her foot to step in as she said, “Where’s Tuan Tuan?”
“Tuan Tuan is asleep,” said Fu Huai’an as he moved his body to the side to give her space.
Chu Xun entered and casually placed her bag on top of the shoe cabinet. She put down the bags for Tuan Tuan beside her feet as she removed her long coat and hung it up. She then bent down to take out slippers from the shoe cabinet with practiced moves.
When she opened the shoe cabinet, she saw a few new pairs of women’s shoes, which were something Chu Xun had never seen in Fu Huai’an’s villa in Tianfu Bay. Her movement paused before the corners of her lips turned up, and she changed her shoes as though she saw nothing.
Without waiting for Chu Xun to finish changing her shoes, Fu Huai’an closed the door and walked in with both hands in his pockets, asking, “What do you want to drink?”
Chu Xun bent down to pick up the presents she got for Tuan Tuan and followed behind him, saying, “I’ll have tea! Where is Auntie Li? Is she upstairs looking after Tuan Tuan?”
“Auntie Li is on leave…”
Chu Xun let out a silent sigh of relief. Some of the words she had to say to Fu Huai’an were easier to say and less of a burden if there was no one around.
Although she too had a villa in Tianfu Bay and came by often, it wasn’t common for her to step past Fu Huai’an’s door.
Chu Xun looked at Fu Huai’an’s broad back in the kitchen, and her heartbeat accelerated slightly. She clenched her fists tightly and placed the gifts down on the couch before turning around… The decorative mirror reflected Chu Xun’s good figure under the tight red dress.
She had specifically gone home to change and even put on some light make-up, hoping that it would give bonus charm for her confession.
Fu Huai’an poured out a cup of the jujube tea that Auntie Li kept in stock under his orders and carried it out…
Chu Xun saw Fu Huai’an walking out from the reflection in the mirror, so she turned around and smiled at Fu Huai’an.
She stepped forward and took the teacup. Upon smelling the faint smell of jujube, her heart felt touched as she thought that Fu Huai’an was really caring and prepared the tea that was most suitable for women, jujube tea, for her.
She placed the teacup on the coffee table before straightening up to look straight at Fu Huai’an, saying, “Huai’an, there’s something I have to tell you.”
From the light blush on Chu Xun’s face, Fu Huai’an could vaguely guess what Chu Xun wanted to say.
“Sit down and talk…” said Fu Huai’an.
Fu Huai’an barely raised his foot when Chu Xun grabbed his wrist and said, “Huai’an!”
Chu Xun was extremely nervous; it was her first time confessing to someone.
Many people had wooed Chu Xun, but the number of men who could enter her eyes was extremely few, and Fu Huai’an was the one who gave her the strongest feelings.
Chu Xun had thought that she was special to Fu Huai’an—after all, Fu Huai’an had saved her life, and all these years, the Kaide Corporation had collaborated many times with the Chu family’s businesses. Old Madam Fu was very fond of Chu Xun, and her parents were extremely satisfied with Fu Huai’an. Between the both of them… Not only Chu Xun, but even both families had always thought there was some kind of unspoken understanding between them.
Even when rumors were circulating in a frenzy about Fu Huai’an getting engaged to the Gu family’s daughter, Chu Xun didn’t bother! Because she had called to ask Old Madam Fu…
Old Madam Fu never even knew about Fu Huai’an getting engaged!
Based on how much Fu Huai’an respected Old Madam Fu, it was impossible that he wouldn’t tell her about getting engaged!
