Chapter 172

Lin Nuan knew who Ji Zibai was. He is an unparalleled artist in the contemporary art world who does realistic painting. His extreme realism is the ultimate achievement that everyone strives for. Although he may be hailed as heavenly, Ji Zibai's paintings are indeed always stunning.

Lin Nuan nervously grabbed the sleeve of the sweater. Not because she was going to meet the mysterious artist Ji Zibai, but because she was going to meet a very important friend of Fu Huai'an.

Lin Nuan had seen many high-profile and important people in the broadcast studio in Haicheng before, but she had never been so nervous as she was now.

Ji Zibai raised his hand and gestured to Fu Huai'an from afar. Fu Huaian nodded and walked over with Lin Nuan. This is the first time Ji Zibai has seen his good friend's wife, and although he is usually uninhibited, he still stands up politely to greet her.

Fu Huaian said to Lin Nuan gentlemanly: "This is Ji Zibai, this is his fiancée, Xie Jingqian."

Ji Zibai nodded to Lin Nuan. Her facial features are delicate and delicate, her face is clean, and her eyes are clear and bright like a lake in Malta!

The eyes are the windows of the soul, and Ji Zibai has the sharp vision of an artist.

Ji Zibai has seen a lot of people, especially when he has to perfect his paintings. He is always observing the people around him. Sometimes he would be in a busy market or slum, watching people busy making a living, or civilians arguing over the smallest issues. Other times, he might be in a musical, talking to the upper class.

From Lin Nuan's clear eyes, he could see that she was a pure and tenacious person.

Ji Zibai read the news of Lin Nuan's trip to Iraq on the Internet. He had been on the verge of death before, and he understood how she felt. Of course, their situation is different. Ji Zibai had to accept his situation awkwardly, because he had no choice, while Lin Nuan knowingly chose to put himself in danger.

He didn't know Lin Nuan, but he was full of admiration for her. It's his confidence in his judgment as an artist.

Ji Zibai gave Lin Nuan a friendly smile and stretched out his hand. "Ji Zibai!"

Lin Nuan respectfully held his right wrist with his left hand and grabbed Ji Zibai's fingertips. "Hi, Lin Nuan."

"Hello!" Xie Jingqian also stretched out his hand and smiled sweetly at Lin Nuan. "I'm Xie Jingqian! I've watched your show! I'm a fan of yours!

Xie Jingqian has a strong interest in gossip news on Weibo, and he is also familiar with Lin Nuan's news.

When Xie Jingqian learned that Lin Nuan went to Iraq because of a man, risking her own life, she felt that this was very different from the public image that Lin Nuan projected. Even so, she was full of admiration for her.

When she heard that Fu Huai'an's wife was Lin Nuan, Xie Jingqian was shocked. Fu Huaian doesn't seem to be the kind of man Lin Nuan wants to marry.

Lin Nuan gives others the impression that she is calm and steady, confident and reserved!

Even when netizens were scolding Lin Nuan, she didn't bother to give any explanation, she was still Zen.

Xie Jingqian thought that a withdrawn person like Lin Nuan would most likely not hit it off with a taciturn person like Fu Huai'an.

Lin Nuan smiled and shook hands with Xie Jingqian.

Lin Nuan does not have a lively personality like Xie Jingqian. She was envious when she saw Xie Jingqian holding Ji Zibai's arm and leaning his head on his shoulder to be coquettish.

Lin Nuan can't do it at home and with her lover, let alone in public. She couldn't allow herself to speak and act so coquettishly.

Xie Jingqian waved his hand proudly and sat down. "Yes! I shook the idol's hand!

Fu Huai'an calmly and nobly pulled out a chair for Lin Nuan.

The atmosphere was cheerful, and there was a cheerful Xie Jingqian around.

After she sat down, Xie Jingqian apologized and asked Ji Zibai's niece and husband, as well as the third brother and his wife, to go together. She hoped that Lin Nuan wouldn't mind.

Staring at Xie Jingqian's big bright eyes, Lin Nuan shook his head. She's fine.

"I'm sorry!" Ji Zibai solemnly apologized.

"It's fine." Fu Huai'an didn't mind.

Fu Huaian didn't have any opinions on Xie Jingqiu and Tang Xi. Even though CapitaLand and Golden Harvest Group had business dealings, Tang Xi and Fu Huaian did not handle it personally, nor did they have much interaction.

As soon as Tang Xi and You Jiaxin arrived, the waiter served drinks to Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an.

Ji Zibai sat on the chair and stared at the pregnant You Jiaxin unhappily.

After You Jiaxin became pregnant, the balloon has inflated, and her figure is no longer slim. Her features were beautiful, but now stretched and inflated; She looks like a child.

"Uncle, you're going too far! Did you just tell me to eat the soles of your shoes? Is this how you should treat pregnant women?

Tang Xi grabbed You Jiaxin's arm and thoughtfully pulled out a chair for her. "Order whatever you want! Don't be angry..."

Only then did Tang Xi raise his head. His handsome facial features smiled, and he casually pulled up another chair and sat next to You Jiaxin. His gaze swept over Fu Huai'an and looked at Lin Nuan who was sitting beside him. Obviously, Tang Xi recognized Lin Nuan. After all, she's popular right now.

Lin Nuan smiled, and when she saw Tang Xi looking at her, she nodded politely.

Tang Xi smiled knowingly. "Mr. Fu, lawyer, when did you start to be so brave? How can you invite this chaste lady who is willing to die for others to be your guest today?

Lin Nuan could see that he was rash.

The relationship between Tang Xi and Ji Zibai has always been bad. Now Ji Zibai is his wife's uncle, Tang Xi's hands are tied, but he is not a person who forgives easily. It's a pity, Fu Huaian and Ji Zibai are good friends. Since he couldn't target Ji Zibai, Tang Xi had no choice but to target Fu Huai'an with his verbal attack.

Tang Xi felt that the chair was shaking. He leaned on the table and looked down...

Fu Huai'an's leather shoes were tucked between his legs and pressed against the edge of the chair as a warning.

Fu Huai'an crossed his legs, and his long legs stepped effortlessly on the edge of the chair. Under the simple and elegant light, Fu Huai'an's eyes narrowed. His strong appearance and aura were terrifying, and Tang Xi, who had not seen him for many years, was taken aback.

The current Fu Huai'an is no longer the invincible lawyer in the past. His deep and deep gaze was unfathomable, shrewd, like a man in a high position. The deep lines of his face and the serene look in his eyes were always calm and composed. However, when he stares at a person, it can be so domineering that one feels overwhelmed and powerless to retaliate.

Tang Xi could see that Fu Huaian was a different person now. Over the years, he has become strong and refined by defeating his business opponents. Fu Huai'an is smarter and more sophisticated than before.

His powerful aura and terrifying existence may have been innate, similar to Xie Jingqiu. Or maybe it's because he's been trained by his experience and his endurance level is higher than the average person.

"Oh, shut up!" Ji Zibai glared at him coldly with his narrow eyes.

"Tang Xi, don't you have anything to say?" You Jiaxin was afraid that her uncle would offend, so she gave the evil eye to Tang Xi. "Can't you just keep your mouth shut and eat? Do you have to annoy me?

"Tang Xi, this is Fu Huai'an's wife, Lin Nuan. Please speak respectfully! Xie Jingqian frowned.

Suddenly, all the fingers pointed at Tang Xi's accusation.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll shut up!" Tang Xi didn't want to anger You Jiaxin.

Tang Xi is not a person who gives in so easily. He saw that Fu Huai'an's leather shoes were still on the edge of the chair, and the eyes of the two met.

Tang Xi knew what Fu Huai'an meant. Fu Huaian was waiting for him to apologize to Lin Nuan.

Tang Xi didn't have any opinion on Lin Nuan. He targeted Fu Huai'an, just because of Ji Zibai.

"Mr. Fu, can you put your feet somewhere else?" Tang Xi pretended to be okay and asked.

Only then did Lin Nuan realize what was going on under the table, where Fu Huai'an's feet were. She reached out and squeezed his.

Fu Huaian said earlier that Ji Zibai is a particularly important friend. Today is Ji Zibai's treat, and the wedding is a festive occasion. Lin Nuan didn't want to mess things up.

"I can't stand to see my woman suffer a little bit!" Fu Huaian leaned back on the chair and unbuttoned his blazer while saying domineeringly.

Tang Xi felt oppressed by Fu Huai'an's powerful aura and majestic aura.

A person can only be domineering if he has the ability. Obviously, Fu Huaian has these attributes and is fully qualified to be domineering.

You Jiaxin's lips trembled. "Uncle Huai'an..."

She said this in a pleading tone. You Jiaxin knows Tang Xi's character - arrogant, proud, and unyielding.

Tang Xi shuddered when he heard You Jiaxin call him Uncle Huai'an.

The word uncle officially lowered Tang Xi's rank in the family tree.

Tang Xi only looked at You Jiaxin's eyes, and didn't care about the pain of other women at all. If he wants them to have a reason to be wronged, they have to accept it anyway.

But today, when he heard Fu Huaian say that he would not let his woman suffer any grievances...... Tang Xi felt a sense of admiration for Fu Huai'an, even if he didn't want to admit it.

When others commented that Tang Xi doted on You Jiaxin too much, he would defend himself by saying that only real men know how to love and pamper a woman.

Tang Xi is willing to apologize!

He looked at Lin Nuan. "Mrs. Fu, I'm sorry, my words offended you, I didn't mean to make a personal attack. I can be malicious and unpleasant, and everyone in Geumseong knows how unlikable I am......"
