Chapter 320: That’s It

All she needed was time.
She turned on the tap to splash her burning face—yet it was useless.
She was probably the way she was because, since she was a child, the county’s education system never explicitly addressed s.e.xual education. Movies like that were seen as toxic to kids, and a good one would never watch it!
Lin Nuan was the typical good child. She never had to let adults worry about her life or study. Hence she felt especially anxious and guilty now that she had the idea to watch it, as if she was doing something extremely wrong.
The phone rang in the living room. She hurriedly wiped her face with tissues and stepped out to answer it.
She calmed herself down and picked it up. “h.e.l.lo…”
It was a parcel from the broadcasting building. Lin Nuan had forgotten what she had bought, so she let the driver leave it with the guard.
As she hung up, she tidied up her things, took her computer bag, and called a cab back to Tianfu Bay to pick Tuan Tuan up to go to the supermarket.
…
As she got out of the taxi, Lin Nuan saw the Maybach Fu Huai’an used to drop her off parked in front of the condominium. She was slightly surprised…
Did Fu Huai’an come back?
Lin Nuan pushed open the gate door and felt slightly excited inside…
Auntie Li was watering the flowers in the backyard and smiled when she saw Lin Nuan return. “Mrs. Fu came home!”
Lin Nuan held the bag handle tighter in her hands and nodded. “Yes. Has Mr. Fu returned?”
Seeing that Lin Nuan was holding onto bags in her hand, Auntie Li put down her sprinkler and jogged over to help Lin Nuan with her things. She smiled and answered, “He came home already, then went out just now!’
Lin Nuan nodded and felt slightly disappointed, but she was content going to the supermarket together with Tuan Tuan.
As she entered the door, Tuan Tuan was fast asleep on the sofa…
He leaned on the sofa cus.h.i.+on, his chubby white cheeks squeezed into an adorable shape. His thick, curly eyebrows left a shade on his face. He still held onto a drawing pen in his chubby fingers, and it was placed near his mouth. The fat on the back of his hands was showing.
“This kid… how did he fall asleep here!” Auntie Li helped get a pair of slippers for Lin Nuan and put down the bag in her hands. She pulled the blanket on the sofa over Tuan Tuan.
Lin Nuan changed her shoes and noticed the drawing on the table. She could vaguely tell what he had drawn. The curvy thing with four wheels was the cart from the supermarket, and the dark black head inside it was Tuan Tuan himself. The one pus.h.i.+ng it must have been her—after all, she had a long ponytail.
Tuan Tuan must have been antic.i.p.ating it the whole morning!
Lin Nuan put back his drawing and couldn’t help but squat down near the sofa to gently caress his head and fiddle with his chubby fingers. She gently pulled the marker out of his hand…
He suddenly shook and grabbed Lin Nuan’s index finger with his little hand. He then puckered his lips and fell back asleep.
Tuan Tuan held onto her finger tightly, and Lin Nuan couldn’t bear to remove it since she didn’t want to startle him.
Seeing how adorable Tuan Tuan looked, she gently kissed his forehead.
Auntie Li brought over the tea Fu Huai’an nagged LIn Nuan to drink every day.
She couldn’t help but smile, seeing this scene.
That’s more like it. The child should be with both of his parents—how could you leave him with only his father?
