Chapter 840: Everything Would Get Better!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The three kids had already run to the door to welcome Fu Huai’an. Lin Nuan locked her phone screen and wrapped herself firmly with the shawl. She then bent over to place the warm porcelain cup she was holding on the coffee table before walking to the entryway.
Upon seeing Lin Nuan walk to the door, the fat cat that had been shrunk in its cage got up and stretched itself lazily. After that, it jogged towards Lin Nuan on its four short limbs, following closely by her legs.
Little Candy couldn’t conceal her fondness for Fu Huai’an, talking non-stop by his side, reporting to him the dishes for dinner that night. She gleefully said that she had secretly run to the kitchen earlier to ask what was for dinner.
You Nainai had a speechless look on her face. Her daughter didn’t regard herself as a guest in someone else’s house.
Little Happy politely addressed Fu Huai’an as Uncle Fu and was incredibly happy when Fu Huai’an stroked him on his little head.
Tuan Tuan obediently retrieved Fu Huai’an’s slippers from the shoe cabinet, then looked up and tugged at his trouser legs. “Papa, change…”
Lin Nuan watched as Fu Huai’an was surrounded by the three kids, not moving as he stood in the entryway. That fat cat was squatting by Lin Nuan’s legs, gazing in Fu Huai’an’s direction as it opened its mouth and raised its paw to lick the fur on it.
Fu Huai’an’s black gaze turned in Lin Nuan’s direction, and he asked, “Is your stomach feeling better?”
Nodding, Lin Nuan said to Fu Huai’an, “Dinner is ready, we can start eating once you go upstairs and change your clothes!”
The three kids weren’t done with their art a.s.signment yet, but they obediently followed Auntie Li as she led them to wash their hands before dinner. Lin Nuan accompanied Fu Huai’an upstairs to change his clothes and told him about the biochemical pregnancy that the doctor mentioned.
Fu Huai’an halted in his act of unb.u.t.toning his s.h.i.+rt. Seeing Lin Nuan hug his suit jacket with both hands, he smiled slightly and said, “The doctor said that after your period is over next month, it’ll be easier for you to get pregnant!”
In the past, whenever Lin Nuan mentioned this matter, she couldn’t stop herself from blus.h.i.+ng. Fu Huai’an noticed that Lin Nuan was troubled over something, so he asked, “Is there something on your mind?”
Lin Nuan’s phone vibrated, and she lowered her head to look at the message. It was from Lin Ran. Lin Ran said that after Dr. Guan briefly looked through Lin Chen’s lab results, she asked him to be hospitalized. She was preparing to arrange the surgery as soon as possible, right after Lin Chen went through another round of checks.
Lin Nuan gripped her phone tightly, raising her head to look at Fu Huai’an.
Not wanting to hide the matter from Fu Huai’an, Lin Nuan nodded, her eyes reddened. “There’s a tumor on my brother’s heart…”
“Lin Chen?” Fu Huai’an was surprised.
Lin Nuan held back her tears and nodded. “I called Qianqian, and Qianqian got her sister-in-law, Dr. Su, to help take my brother to Furen Hospital to see Dr. Guan. Dr. Guan is our country’s most authoritative and youngest cardiologist. My heart can only be at ease if my brother goes to her! I had originally wanted to accompany him to Jincheng, but he refused to let me. I had no choice but to tell Lin Ran about it, and she said that she’d accompany him there!”
“Just now, Lin Ran sent me a message, saying that Dr. Guan asked my brother to be hospitalized. After a checkup, she’ll be scheduling the surgery.”
Fu Huai’an’s s.h.i.+rt was halfway unb.u.t.toned. He reached out to pull Lin Nuan into his arms. “Don’t worry, he’ll be fine!”
Lin Nuan circled one arm around Fu Huai’an’s narrow waist and nodded. “Mm! I know!”
Fu Huai’an caressed Lin Nuan’s shoulder and said in a low voice, “If you’re worried, do you want to take a trip to Jincheng?”
“I’m afraid Brother will turn around and leave once he sees me. That guy is incredibly stubborn…” Lin Nuan’s eyes turned even redder.
Fu Huai’an was silent for a moment before saying, “It just so happens that I have to make a trip to Jincheng to handle some matters…”
Lin Nuan looked up.
“I plan to let Lawyer Lei Hongtao take over Liu Mingchen’s case. I asked Little Lu to contact Liu Mingchen’s parents today. Lei Hongtao is the best lawyer we have now. I’ve seen the cases he’s fought, and he’s skilled at this type of lawsuit! I’m going over to instruct him on some things…”
Lei Hongtao was also a lawyer in Fu Huai’an’s law firm in Jincheng.
Now that Liu Mingchen was on bail and awaiting trial, Liu Mingchen’s parents were vexed over finding the most appropriate lawyer for him. Their company’s law consultant wasn’t confident with such lawsuits, so the call that Fu Huai’an made Little Lu make was timely help.
“Since I’m going to Jincheng, let’s go take a look at Lin Chen!” Fu Huai’an grabbed Lin Nuan’s pet.i.te hand. “If you have nothing planned for tomorrow, let’s go together!”
Lin Nuan was hesitant.
“Since I’ll be around too, Lin Chen can’t very well turn around and leave once he sees you…”
Lin Nuan was indeed concerned about Lin Chen. She nodded and held Fu Huai’an tightly. “Mm!”
After dinner, You Nainai took Little Candy home, and she also drove Little Happy back to his home on the way.
Little Happy politely bade farewell to Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan, then reminded Tuan Tuan to protect their art a.s.signment well before happily getting into You Nainai’s car.
…
Little Lu arrived early in the morning to pick Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an up.
Jincheng wasn’t far away from Haicheng, taking only two hours by car. Hence, rather than taking a plane, Fu Huai’an preferred to go there by car.
The night before, the troubled Lin Nuan didn’t sleep well. In the car, as she leaned against Fu Huai’an’s broad and thick shoulders, she very quickly fell asleep in a daze.
Too much had happened around Lin Nuan in a brief period. With all the messy events tangled up together, it was inevitable that Lin Nuan would feel tired.
She first followed Fu Huai’an to the law firm to see Lawyer Lei Hongtao. Lawyer Lei Hongtao had already packed his luggage, placing it in his office. He was prepared to set off for Haicheng after a simple discussion with Fu Huai’an.
To Lei Hongtao, Liu Mingchen was a n.o.bel Prize winner, so the lawsuit was helping Liu Mingchen… as well as himself!
He knew that so long as the lawsuit had a good outcome, he would surely gain a great deal of fame. Therefore, Lei Hongtao put a lot of focus on the case. The information that he had prepared was even more complete than Fu Huai’an had expected.
Lin Nuan didn’t know much about lawsuits, so she could only understand the rough meaning. She could tell that the few points that Lei Hongtao had raised with Fu Huai’an were on point and had gotten Fu Huai’an’s approval. Only then did Lin Nuan feel more a.s.sured.
She gazed out the windows at the glistening sun rays, feeling that although there was a layer of fog looming over them for the time being, since they were settling those issues one by one, everything would get better!
Everything would get better!
Opening her phone and taking a glance, she saw that Lin Ran hadn’t sent her any news regarding Lin Chen. However, Miss Xia had sent her a WeChat message. Miss Xia announced in their agency’s group chat that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s episode would be broadcasted the night after tomorrow, and she asked everyone to remember to support by watching!
The group chat buzzed with life, with people saying that they looked forward to eating dog food.
Miss Xia privately sent Lin Nuan a message, saying that her episode with Fu Huai’an was being broadcasted in advance because Jinjiang TV Station was considering the issue of ratings. Miss Xia’s consideration was the military show that they would be doing next. Some of the things that Fu Huai’an mentioned involved the military, which would arouse the interest of the audience. The audience might be more concerned about the military topic as a result of that.
Lin Nuan locked her phone screen and looked up to see Fu Huai’an standing before the large office desk. He was pointing at the information Lei Hongtao had prepared, discussing the main points with him.
She gazed at the man who was standing against the light. He was mature and steady, tall and broad. As he enlightened Lei Hongtao with his deep and peaceful-as-usual gaze, Lin Nuan felt that he looked so strong and powerful that he could dispel all feelings of uneasiness for her!
With Fu Huai’an around, everything would get better!
