Chapter 1025: A Great Headache
Lin Nuan was stumped by Little Happy’s question…
Was it especially painful?
Lin Nuan recalled how much pain Lu Xiangsi looked like she was in when giving birth to Tuan Tuan and nodded.
When Little Happy heard that, he seemed a little nervous. He got a little closer to Lin Nuan, asking in a soft voice, “Then… will Tuan Tuan’s Mama dislike Tuan Tuan because it was too painful when you gave birth to him?”
When Tuan Tuan, who had just come back from getting fruits for Lin Nuan, heard this, he quietly stopped in his footsteps and looked toward Lin Nuan…
Little Happy had told Tuan Tuan and Little Candy previously that his mother didn’t like him and thus didn’t want him!
Little Candy asked him why, and Little Happy said that his papa said that his mama had been in too much pain when she gave birth to him and thus didn’t like him.
When Tuan Tuan heard Little Happy asking Lin Nuan this question, he suddenly felt very scared. Would his mama dislike him because she had been in too much pain?
Lin Nuan looked at Little Happy, feeling perplexed. She understood after seeing how Little Happy looked both scared yet was still antic.i.p.ating her answer. She smiled at Little Happy and shook her head. She recalled how Lu Xiangsi had appeared so tough and in agony when she was giving birth to Tuan Tuan back then and said…
“Of course not. Although it was painful… I felt both pain and happiness! The birth of every life requires the mother to go through pain, but there isn’t a single mother who doesn’t love her child. All mothers in the world love their children more than anything else, even more than their own lives! I believe that your mama loves you and that her love wouldn’t be lesser than my love for Tuan Tuan!”
Little Happy instantly broke out into a smile. Papa was a liar! He nodded vigorously. “En! I believe that Mama loves me!”
Tuan Tuan was also very happy. Mama said that… she loved him more than anything else!
If Tuan Tuan had a tail, he’d be wagging it vigorously as he ran in Lin Nuan’s direction, feeling overjoyed.
“Mama! Fruits!” Tuan Tuan spoke up in his childish voice, displaying his elation on his face.
“Thank you, Tuan Tuan!” Lin Nuan reached out her hand and took the fruit platter from Tuan Tuan. She then rubbed Tuan Tuan’s small head. The child grabbed onto Lin Nuan’s arm, placing his chubby face into her palm, smiling brightly.
Lin Nuan hadn’t had lunch, and Cen Mo had informed the servants at the Fu residence before they came back. The servants had prepared lunch and were waiting for Lin Nuan to come back.
They came over and asked Lin Nuan to head to the dining room for her meal.
When Fu Huai’an came back, the three children were having their meals with Lin Nuan.
The children surrounded Lin Nuan, with Little Happy and Little Candy chattering non-stop about what Lin Nuan should eat that would be good for the baby in her stomach. When Tuan Tuan heard what Little Happy and Little Candy said, he would point out the food they mentioned to Lin Nuan, telling her to eat.
“Sir…” A servant went up, wanting to greet Fu Huai’an.
Fu Huai’an made a “hush” gesture, handed his coat to the servant, and walked in the direction of the dining room as he took off his watch.
“Papa!” Tuan Tuan was the first to see Fu Huai’an, and he called out happily.
“h.e.l.lo, Tuan Tuan’s Papa!”
“h.e.l.lo, Uncle!”
The two children greeted Fu Huai’an crisply.
Fu Huai’an smiled and nodded. He pulled out the chair to the right of Lin Nuan and took a seat. A servant quickly brought a bowl and chopsticks for Fu Huai’an, but he raised his hand to indicate that he didn’t need them. He said to Lin Nuan, “I need to make a trip to Jincheng today. It might take two days.”
Lin Nuan’s hand that was holding onto her spoon stopped. It wasn’t appropriate for her to ask him questions in front of the three children, so she said, “Alright… then I’ll go with you upstairs to pack your luggage!”
Drawing a tissue and wiping her mouth, Lin Nuan said to Tuan Tuan, “Tuan Tuan, have some fruits with Little Happy and Little Candy in the dining room. Mama will come down in a while!”
“Alright!” Tuan Tuan answered docilely.
As they headed upstairs, Lin Nuan asked Fu Huai’an, “Why do you suddenly have to head to Jincheng?”
Fu Huai’an s.h.i.+elded Lin Nuan with one hand, lowering his voice while they walked up the stairs. “Mr. Ran Chaoqian’s turbine has been developed successfully. The reason for my trip to Jincheng is for this matter…”
This was a major project that the government and the Kaide Corporation were collaborating on—the turbine project!
It could also be said to be a project involving the military…
Not only was this project viewed in high regard by the government and the military, but it was also a vital project for the Kaide Corporation.
“Mr. Ran Chaoqian’s family members have been settled down in Jincheng, and it’ll be the New Year soon. It’s time to let their family be reunited.” Fu Huai’an spoke very slowly, and he couldn’t hide the smile behind his deep and calm voice.
It was like Fu Huai’an had mentioned on the television program previously. Their country’s military development wasn’t bad and could be said to have reached a top-level at international standards. However, the turbines for cargo planes and fighter jets were the only things that were a great headache.
Fu Huai’an had been a soldier before and had some patriotic feelings. This was the most important reason he was willing to work together with the government on this project.
Fu Huai’an felt very happy that the turbine had been developed within such a short period of time. Little Lu was at the laboratory with Ran Chaoqian to pack the doc.u.ments, and Fu Huai’an would need to set off after packing up as well.
Lin Nuan packed a few sets of clothes and some toiletries together with Fu Huai’an, then sent him downstairs…
Tuan Tuan, who was accompanying the young guests in the dining room, quickly got down from the chair when he saw his father coming down with his suitcase. He ran over, hugged Fu Huai’an’s leg, and asked, “Papa, are you going on a business trip?”
Fu Huai’an nodded, put the suitcase to the side, and squatted down to say to his son, “There’s a small baby in Mama’s stomach now. Papa won’t be around, so you have to stay at home and take good care of her, being a good brother, alright?”
The kid nodded vigorously, hugging Fu Huai’an and saying in a tone that imitated how adults spoke, “Don’t worry, Papa! Tuan Tuan… take care of Mama! Take care of baby!”
Lin Nuan realized that they should let Tuan Tuan spend more time with Little Candy and Little Happy, two children who were good talkers. Right now, Tuan Tuan was speaking with increasing clarity.
Lin Nuan smiled and rubbed Tuan Tuan’s head. Fu Huai’an’s gaze was filled with admiration. “After Mama finishes her meal later, remember to urge Mama to take a nap after half an hour. Mama is tired after having gone out for an entire day, and she hasn’t had any rest.”
“Okay!”
After sending Fu Huai’an off and accompanying Lin Nuan for her meal, Tuan Tuan fulfilled his duty, urging Lin Nuan to go upstairs and take a nap half an hour later.
Lin Nuan was now pregnant, and Fang Yan could only reschedule all of her appointments, with emphasis placed on letting Lin Nuan take care of her baby.
Could Fang Yan not make such arrangements? The big boss behind the agency was Lin Nuan’s husband!
Based on Fang Yan’s opinion, although Lin Nuan was pregnant, it would be fine for her to take on work or be a guest actress in movies as long as Lin Nuan and her baby’s safety were a.s.sured.
However, she received a call from Little Lu that hinted to her that… their boss wanted to let his wife take care of the baby and for Fang Yan to a.s.sess how she should go about doing things!
As an employee, what could Fang Yan do? She could only do as she was told!
