Chapter 270 - Why Not Choose a Proper Date
“I know it sounds cheesy, but I can’t be truly comfortable staying at your place when we aren’t married…” Lin Nuan said as she took a sip of tea with her ears flushing.
“I thought you would prefer being in a relationship first,” Fu Huai’an said slowly and then glanced at his watch, “We can still get our certificate now if you want.”
“Cough, cough…” Lin Nuan choked on her drink.
She clumsily flipped over her tea and coughed violently, her whole face turning red.
Fu Huai’an passed her a tissue and patted on her back gently. “You’re a bit too old to choke on your drink, aren’t you?”
How could someone be so instantaneous?
Lin Nuan wiped her mouth with the tissue and cleared the table. She looked at him as she tried to hold her cough. “Isn’t it too rushed to do it this afternoon?”
Fu Huai’an glanced at her red face. “The security system is excellent at Cloud Condominium. I would worry less if you moved there earlier.”
It was indeed unsafe for a girl to live alone.
She knew he was concerned for her safety. She thought about it and said, “My apartment lease will expire soon, and it’s closer to work from here. Once it expires, it won’t be too late for me to plan to move over.”
Fu Huai’an felt he made good progress since she didn’t turn him down completely. He nodded without pushing anything.
Fu Huai’an picked up his chopsticks again and dined elegantly. Lin Nuan was finding a way to say what she wanted to, and she felt her ears flush again.
“About collecting our certificate…” Lin Nuan said nervously.
“What about it?” Fu Huai’an answered in his deep, magnetic voice. His collar was wide open, which made him appear very attractive.
“We don’t have to rush it. After all, it is a marriage. Why not choose a proper date?”
Lin Nuan grasped her chopsticks tightly as she glanced at him with her glistening crystal clear eyes.
Fu Huai’an smiled through his eyes and answered gently, “Yes. Better choose a proper date for the big day.”
Lin Nuan couldn’t help but smile as well and continued to eat.
She thought of Wen Moshen’s wedding in her excitement and wondered whether she should invite Fu Huai’an to accompany her. She then realized he barely had enough time to rest.
She thought for a moment and decided Bai Xiaonian should accompany her.
…
By the time Lin Nuan reached the LIn Family’s home, Lin Chen and Lin Jingquan had been to their old mansion and were still on their way back.
Lin Ran was upstairs in her room.
Besides Liang Mulan, there was an extraordinary guest in the living room.
When Lin Nuan entered the door, she noticed he was wearing a dashing suit as he sat comfortably on the sofa with his legs crossed. He and Liang Mulan were discussing a famous painting.
His dark eyes glanced towards Lin Nuan. They were so cold you could barely detect any emotion underneath.
Liang Mulan introduced him to Lin Nuan. “Xiao Nuan, this is the elder son of the Ceng Family. He’s your brother’s friend…”
“Ceng Mo!”
The extraordinary gentleman extended his slender hand to LIn Nuan and smiled. His features looked sharply defined and handsome, yet she still felt a chilling quality in him.
He kept his lips sealed tight and appeared especially solemn underneath the light of the chandelier, giving off a sinister vibe.
“Hello…” Lin Nuan shook Ceng Mo’s hand politely.
