Chapter 12

Lin Chen stared deeply into her eyes.

It took a lot of courage for Lin Chen to say what he had just done.

Liang Mulan had already told Lin Nuan that if she didn't like Mr. Gu of the Gu family, she might consider being with Lin Chen. Then everyone can come from the same family, Lin Nuan is her daughter, it's just ...... Through another identity.

At that time, Lin Nuan thought it was just Liang Mulan's wishful thinking, because Liang Mulan was too protective of her.

But hearing Lin Chen ask this question, Lin Nuan was really taken aback.

"We've lived together as a family for so long. We have the same habits, we know each other well......" Just as Lin Chen persuaded her in a deep voice, Lin Nuan discovered that there was something hidden behind his expression.

"Brother..."Lin Nuan was silent for a moment. You don't have to do it for your mother......"

Lin Nuan didn't know what to say in that situation, and she had never rehearsed it in advance. There was a lump in her throat, and she couldn't say a word.

Lin Chen's gaze became more serious. He didn't look like he was joking at all, just calm and determined.

Lin Nuan's fluttering heart began to settle down. She replied, "Brother, I know that you and your mother have the same plan - to make me a member of the Lin family. But you must know that although we are not related by blood, I have always regarded my mother as my own mother and you as my true brother. I... Won't change anything in the world.

Lin Nuan is very smart, she has always been. She makes a perfect point.

"In that case, why don't you go home? Well? Lin Chen struggled to suppress the anger that flashed in his voice.

"Because... It's embarrassing," Lin Nuan replied honestly, "Facing Lin Ran...... That's even more embarrassing.

It's a horrible embarrassment...

Without waiting for Lin Chen to answer, Lin Nuan put on an indifferent tone, "Brother, you will never think of who I will take home to marry - it's Fu Huai'an!" Did you know that he is very famous in the bar world.

Lin Chen couldn't maintain his calm expression anymore. His eyebrows slowly twisted together.

Since Lin Nuan was so eager to reveal who he was going to marry, then Lin Chen could see it. She was determined to make it clear that she was against marrying him.

"Well, Fu Huai'an's reputation is not limited to the lawyers, isn't it?"

Fu Huai'an kept a low profile for a whole year. Three years ago, he suddenly appeared on Wall Street in the United States as a lawyer. His transformational business strategy is in awe. There were predictions that he would take control of Wall Street in no more than a year, which caused considerable uproar.

When he returned to his home country with his son, he stopped taking on cases and left all matters related to lawyers to his partners while he delved into high-risk investments himself. Almost all of the New Trend projects in recent years have been funded by him.

Lin Chen recalled a review about Fu Huai'an written in the Economic Times. This passage expounds quite on Fu Huai'an's dexterous and precise vision. Even Lin Chen had to admit it. He possesses cunning intelligence.

"So, Lin Nuan actually wants to marry everyone's Fu Huai'an?"

A man with a child...

Lin Chen's forehead began to wrinkle like a raisin. How did Lin Nuan know someone like Fu Huai'an?

"Nuan Nuan, this person already has a child," Lin Chen said with anger on his face.

Lin Nuan smiled faintly. "And my own mother is mentally ill."

The implication of her words is that Fu Huaian has never looked down on her, so what right does she have to look down on Fu Huaian?

Lin Chen wanted to explain, he didn't mind that she had a mentally retarded mother. In fact, no one in his family would look down on Lin Nuan.

The answer is yes ... Except for Lin Ran.

However, Lin Nuan has made it very clear that she regards Lin Chen as a brother, nothing more.

"Hasn't he already confirmed his engagement to Gu Han?"

Lin Nuan's slender fingers gripped her wallet tightly. She replied calmly, "It's just a rumor......

"How long have you known each other?"

Lin Chen made a lot of effort to make himself sound like a big brother.

"Three or four months..."Lin Nuan replied honestly.

Lin Chen began to burn with anger. Lin Nuan wants to marry a man who has only known him for three or four months? She's too impulsive!

"Do you understand what you're doing?"

As soon as Lin Chen finished saying this, Liang Mulan had already walked out of the door of the mansion.

Liang Mulan fixed her shawl, stared at Lin Chen's car, and walked briskly towards them.

"Mom is here..."Lin Nuan said as she opened the door and stepped out of the carriage.

Liang Mulan had already discovered Lin Nuan from afar. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace.

"Mother..."Lin Nuan called softly.

Lin Chen looked down and lit a cigarette. He unbuckled his seat belt and left the car unhurriedly.

"Nuanuan..." Liang Mulan stepped forward and grabbed Lin Nuan's petite hand. She shouted in an accusatory and relieved tone, "You're finally home?

Lin Nuan grinned and immediately got to the point, "I'll bring back the man I'm going to marry so that I can introduce him to my mother." We're going to pick up our marriage license tomorrow.

Lin Nuan's news caught Liang Mulan off guard. She glanced at Lin Chen, who had just gotten out of the car with a cigarette in his mouth. Liang Mulan grabbed Lin Nuan's petite hand tightly and said, "Follow me upstairs."

Liang Mulan still behaves like a mother in front of Lin Nuan - old habits are difficult to change.

Liang Mulan almost dragged Lin Nuan into her bedroom.

Closing the door, Liang Mulan forced Lin Nuan to sit on the sofa and interrogated, "Are you in a hurry to marry a random man...... Just because I told you to consider marrying your brother?

Liang Mulan obviously misunderstood...

She was afraid that the ridiculous idea she proposed - because she was obsessed with Lin Nuan returning to the Lin family - had already made Lin Nuan panic and find someone to marry casually. Such a decision could lead to the biggest mistake of her life.

Liang Mulan scolded her: "You stupid boy! If you don't want to, then I don't care... Do you think I'm going to force you to do that? I just thought of that messy idea because I wanted it to bring you home! You can't act recklessly just because you don't agree with me! Aren't you poking your mother in the heart right now?

Liang Mulan couldn't hide the despair and concern in her eyes; This is a mother's most primitive affection for her daughter.

Lin Nuan's eyes turned red. She is sincerely grateful to Liang Mulan. Even when the brutal truth is revealed, she still treats her as her own daughter.

"Mother..."Lin Nuan held Liang Mulan's hand, and her voice choked with emotion.

Liang Mulan wiped away the tears in her eyes and hugged Lin Nuan. In vain she tried to hold back her tears.

Liang Mulan's voice was also hoarse, "Even if you are not my biological flesh and blood, I raised you since I was a child." All I want is for the person you marry to treat you well. So that you can be truly happy. I think I screwed up - I actually came up with a ridiculous idea to keep you with me...... Well, dear. Don't worry, I won't mention it again. You and the Gu family are still engaged, as long as I am with your father, the Gu family will not dare to sever the relationship. But you better promise me that you won't continue this recklessness outside! Otherwise, I can't stand it......"
