Chapter 56

Lin Nuan's lips parted, but he didn't make any sound. That afternoon, after seeing the photo of Fu Huaian and female star Su Manman, she didn't know what result she would end up with Fu Huai'an. She was afraid that she would answer Tuan Tuan, how could Fu Huai'an's wife have dealings with Tuan Tuan in the future......

"Mom..."

Lin Nuan didn't respond, so Tuan Tuan screamed again to test her reaction.

Eventually, she surrendered under the child's expectant and fearful gaze. Lin Nuan pursed her lips and replied, "En?

Lin Nuan crumpled the paper towel used to wipe the bangs, and her slender fingers stroked the child's wet hair.

"Can I hug you?" Tuan Tuan asked softly, as if he was afraid that Lin Nuan would not agree, he stretched out a chubby short finger, looked at her expectantly, and said, "Just ...... for a while"

Lin Nuan's fingers poked Tuan Tuan's chubby face, and she smiled slightly and hugged Tuan Tuan into her arms.

The child hugged Lin Nuan's neck with both arms, pressed his face on Lin Nuan's shoulder, and his eyes were suddenly moist, as if he was about to cry.

Sensing the change in Tuan Tuan's mood, Lin Nuan asked softly, "Tuan Tuan, do you want to eat cake?"

Tuan Tuan heard Lin Nuan's soft voice, forcibly held back his tears, and nodded.

Tuan Tuan has always liked sweets such as cakes, but Fu Huai'an strictly controls Tuan Tuan's sweet intake. He always said that every time Tuan Tuan had a check-up, he would be overweight......

Lin Nuan stood up, like a little tail, and followed her step by step.

She put the cake and her phone on the table, unwrapped the cake, and looked at the artwork and several colorful circles. Lin Nuan couldn't tell what it was...

Seeing that Lin Nuan was very interested in his paintings, Tuan Tuan helped himself to sit on the dining chair and climbed up.

"This is Mom..."Tuan Tuan Chubby pointed to the pink circle and excitedly introduced it to Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan looked at it seriously, although she couldn't see what she looked like, she still nodded and praised: "En...... You draw well!

Tuan Tuan was a little proud, pointed to the small circle in the middle, and said, "This is Tuan Tuan......"

His little hand moved to the black circle next to it and said, "This is Daddy!"

As soon as Dad's words left Tuan Tuan's mouth, Lin Nuan's mobile phone on the table rang, and Fu Huai'an's name was displayed on the screen.

Tuan Tuan was still young and couldn't recognize many words, but he clearly remembered Fu Huai'an's name. He looked at Lin Nuan excitedly and said, "It's Dad!"

Embarrassed to ignore Fu Huai'an's phone in front of the child, Lin Nuan picked up the phone and asked Tuan Tuan: "Do you want to talk to Dad?"

Tuan Tuan nodded obediently and said, "Yes!

After picking up the phone, Lin Nuan handed the phone to Tuan Tuan, the child's little hands were too small to grasp the phone, so he hugged Lin Nuan's arm and called sweetly into the phone, "Dad, are you back?"

"Well, let Mom call."

Fu Huai'an's deep voice came into Lin Nuan's ears, and she guessed that Fu Huai'an had seen through her escape attempt. Lin Nuan cleared her throat, and under the gaze of Tuan Tuan's wide eyes, she straightened up, pretended to be careless, took the phone, and asked, "Mr. Fu, do you have anything you want?"

Lin Nuan deliberately used this word to widen the distance between her and Fu Huai'an. Fu Huai'an is no longer an ignorant little boy; He understands clearly.

"I'm going to pick up Tuan Tuan tonight."

Fu Huai'an's charming voice came from the other end of the phone, and when he said that sentence, he mysteriously aroused the peace in Lin Nuan's heart.

"Okay." Lin Nuan looked at Tuan Tuan, who was stretching his neck and looking up, clenched his mobile phone, tried his best to pretend to be polite, and said, "What time are you coming?" I'm going to pack up my stuff.

Lin Nuan vaguely heard the voice of Fu Huai'an's assistant calling Mr. Fu on the other end of the phone, followed by the soft sound of the tip of the pen scraping paper.

"If all goes well, I'll probably arrive by 10:30 p.m.," Fu replied calmly.

Lin Nuan understood that Fu Huaian was still busy, so he simply said, "Okay."

...

Fu Huai'an has always been punctual, but there was no phone from him at 10:40 p.m. tonight.

Remembering that Fu Huaian said that if everything goes well, it will arrive at 10:30 in the evening, Lin Nuan frowned, not knowing if this means that something is wrong.

She wanted to call Fu Huai'an and tell him that Tuan Tuan had fallen asleep and that he would pick up the child tomorrow, but she was not his biological mother, so she had no reason to keep the child around.

On the sofa, Tuan Tuan was so tired that he closed his eyes, covered with a blanket, and his head rested on Lin Nuan's lap. He slept peacefully, his little face dimly illuminated by the light of the television screen.

Song Yao and Bai Xiaonian were already asleep.

Song Yao has been depressed these days, so she sleeps hard, and Bai Xiaonian has a radio the next morning, and she has to get up at 3 o'clock in the morning, so she has to go to bed early.

Lin Nuan hadn't washed up yet, so she simply sat on the sofa and kept switching channels with the remote control, absent-minded.

At 10:50 p.m., Lin Nuan finally received a call from Fu Huai'an, saying that he was already downstairs.

Lin Nuan couldn't bear to wake up Tuan Tuan, so he wrapped him in a blanket and hugged him. The little boy's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and then he fell asleep in Lin Nuan's arms.

Lin Nuan's desire to call Fu Huaian tomorrow to ask him to pick up Tuan Tuan became stronger and stronger, but she was afraid that this call would make Fu Huaian misunderstand her intentions, so after thinking about it, Lin Nuan added another coat to Tuan Tuan's body, and then went downstairs.

...

At the entrance to the apartment building, a black sedan is parked under a street lamp. Fu Huaian leaned against the passenger door, cigarette in his mouth, one hand in his pocket, slender fingers flipping through emails on his phone.

He wears a dark blue suit with a white shirt underneath that has no tie at the collar and no buttons on his top. The dim light from the cell phone outlined his face and Adam's Adam's apple, adding to his heavy aura.

Fu Huai'an's tall figure assured that even if he was just standing there, the aura around him was still strong and could not be ignored.

Lin Nuan walked out of the elevator with the child in her arms and saw Fu Huaian standing next to the car. She stopped, took a deep breath, adjusted her senses, and walked towards him again.

As if he could feel her, Fu Huai'an raised his head and looked directly at Lin Nuan with his dark eyes.

Seeing her holding the sleeping Tuan Tuan, Fu Huaian locked the mobile phone and put it in his pocket, went upstairs with his thigh, threw the remaining half of the cigarette into the trash can, and opened the door for Lin Nuan.

After approaching, Lin Nuan could clearly see that Fu Huai'an looked a little tired, although this did not affect his intimidating aura.

Lin Nuan didn't see Fu Huai'an's assistant, but was just thinking about how Fu Huai'an could bring the sleeping Tuan Tuan home by himself. She wondered if she should ask Tuan Tuan to stay overnight.

"How-"

"You and Tuan Tuan sit in the back."

didn't give Lin Nuan a chance to speak, Fu Huai'an's deep voice was decisive and non-negotiable.

Lin Nuan raised his head and met Fu Huai'an's deep gaze. Unable to ignore his masculine charm, her eyes fell on Fu Huai'an's unbuttoned suit......

That outfit... And the suit shown in the photo in the article should be the same set.

She always felt that Fu Huai'an was a man with a very high standard of living - at least every time she saw him...... She had never seen him wear the same outfit two days in a row.

Seeing that Lin Nuan remained silent, Fu Huaian continued: "It will be too late in the future. I'll ask the driver to take you back.

When Fu Huaian drove by himself, he really couldn't carry Tuan Tuan.

The night breeze was slightly chilly, and when Lin Nuan went down the mountain, he wrapped his coat around Tuan Tuan. The wind blew, and Lin Nuan's arms got goosebumps.

Tuan Tuan approached Lin Nuannuan's embrace, and her chubby cheeks pressed into her arms.

She couldn't bear to wake him up, so she nodded.

Fu Huaian opened the back seat door for Lin Nuan, and Lin Nuan sat in cautiously with Tuan Tuan in his arms.

Fu Huai'an's fragrance filled the whole car, mixed with a faint nicotine smell, enveloping Lin Nuan, reminding her of how Fu Huai'an opened the backseat door for Su Manman in the gossip article. She felt a vague sense of unease.

The tall figure of the man stood next to the car door, and she had one hand on the roof. Fu Huaian watched Lin Nuan bend down and adjust his grip on the child before saying, "Is it too cold to go downstairs wearing only a T-shirt?"

Lin Nuan looked at Fu Huai'an's deep-seated eyes and said, "I won't be cold when I close the door."

The words sounded jagged, as if the person speaking was angry......

Lin Nuan didn't look at Fu Huai'an, but shifted his gaze to the sleeping Tuan Tuan, and patted him gently, as if he didn't want to talk to Fu Huai'an, for fear of waking up the child.

Under the dim orange light of the street lamp, Lin Nuan's face was still calm, and Fu Huaian watched her focus on Tuan Tuan, her eyelashes covering her clear gaze. He didn't say anything, just closed the door for Lin Nuan. He sat in the driver's seat and put the jacket in the passenger seat before starting the engine.

Leaving the area, the car quickly pulled onto the main road.

The car was quiet, there was not even the sound of the radio announcement, and Fu Huaian turned on the slightly warm heater.

The car passed by the endless street lights, illuminating Fu Huai'an's figure.

Lin Nuan felt that the atmosphere was very awkward, and she looked out the window.

Red light.

Next to the car, a young man in his 20s also stopped, who was riding an electric scooter and wearing a driving vest. When he answered the phone, he put one foot on the ground and told the person on the other end of the line that he would arrive in about ten minutes in another ten minutes.

Lin Nuan suddenly felt regretful. Why didn't she think of asking Fu Huaian to call a temporary driver?

She travels on her own and won't be able to sleep because of the long journey.

She frowned inwardly, but she didn't dare to express it to the outside world, her brows were furrowed.

"Are you used to the new president?" Fu Huai'an suddenly spoke, and his deep voice sounded a little hoarse.

Lin Nuan was surprised that Fu Huai'an would know the whereabouts of their unit, but after a while, she felt that it was not a trivial matter to change the president and several vice presidents, since it was not a secret, it was normal for Fu Huai'an to know.

"The status of the president is very high. I don't have much contact with it... I don't know if I'm used to it.

Although she said so, Lin Nuan felt that with a lady as the new president, the problem of sexual harassment of women in the building should be reduced, which was a good dissolution for the hostess who hated sleep
