"Sir… why don"t… I go over and settle the matter after sending you to the company!" Little Lu feared that Fu Huai"an might be impatient, so he offered a solution first.
Lin Nuan looked up at Little Lu, then raised her gla.s.s of milk and took a sip from it, a smile in her eyes. "I have some time before heading to Haicheng TV Station. Let me go. I want to see what this Miss Sun has done… who she met, and why that person has pestered her unreasonably and insisted on dragging her to socialize this early in the morning, causing Miss Sun to rather call Aunt Blessing, who is far away in Jincheng, than the police."
Even Little Lu had detected Sun Miaomiao"s ulterior motive towards Fu Huai"an, so how could Lin Nuan be so slow as not to realize it?
From Little Blessing going missing, to later getting Aunt Blessing to help her come to Haicheng to intern, to today"s car accident…
Aunt Blessing was an honest and kind person who was simple and not complicated. She judged others by herself and felt that there were plenty of kind folks in the world, so she perhaps didn"t read too much into Sun Miaomiao"s intentions.
However, Sun Miaomiao"s making use of Aunt Blessing to hit on Fu Huai"an was getting on Lin Nuan"s nerves.
"Get Little Lu to go with you…" Fu Huai"an then instructed Little Lu, "After you settle this matter, tell this Miss Sun that you can help her contact the Jiahe Corporation for her to go over there to intern. If this Miss Sun refuses, then tell her not to trouble Aunt Blessing with random things. She"s here to intern, not to be a precious missy. If she can"t persist, she can leave. No one can follow her around to help her settle every bit of trouble she runs into!"
The reason Fu Huai"an instructed Little Lu to go over with Lin Nuan was that he didn"t understand Sun Miaomiao"s character. He was worried that Sun Miaomiao might talk about this incident in a way that led Aunt Blessing to think Lin Nuan was a petty person.
Little Lu was Fu Huai"an"s a.s.sistant, so if those words came out of Little Lu"s mouth, they represented Fu Huai"an"s thoughts. This way, Aunt Blessing wouldn"t form a bad opinion of Lin Nuan.
Little Lu nodded. "Got it, Sir!"
…
After breakfast, Little Lu drove towards the location Aunt Blessing gave him.
You Nainai, who was sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat, asked with a frown, "Shouldn"t she leave this kind of thing to the traffic police to settle?"
Lin Nuan, who was staring at her tablet computer in the back row, smiled…
"Just now, Madam said the same thing!" Little Lu didn"t hide things from You Nainai. "This Miss Sun doesn"t have pure intentions. Her ambitions are too big!"
"What ambitions?"
You Nainai, who had always been slow-witted when it came to relations.h.i.+ps, asked in a puzzled tone.
Little Lu had interacted with You Nainai for quite some time now, so he was aware that You Nainai had a rigid mind. He explained, "This Sun Miaomiao clearly could"ve looked for the traffic police to settle this matter, yet she insisted on going one big round and pleading with Aunt Blessing to get Sir to go over to help. Are her intentions towards Sir not obvious?"
Little Lu suspected that what Sun Miaomiao previously said about missing her interns.h.i.+p opportunity at the Jiahe Corporation because of helping to look for Little Blessing… was fake!
Even the way Little Blessing went missing on the day of Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an"s wedding was suspicious to Little Lu.
You Nainai nodded, feeling that Sun Miaomiao was an interesting person. Could she not tell how much Fu Huai"an loved Lin Nuan on the TV? The man was already married, yet she was still trying to get close to him.
"I don"t know what young ladies these days are thinking. Sir"s already married, and she"s still trying to play tricks!" Little Lu couldn"t resist adding.
Lin Nuan looked up and placed the tablet computer on her lap as she said with a smile, "To these young ladies, it"s rare to see a man who has a successful career and is also handsome and mature. A man like Huai"an, who has had such extraordinary life experiences, is even rarer! Young girls in love tend to think they"re that special one. They had countless suitors on campus because of their beauty, so when they enter society, they think that every man they cross paths with will fall for them. Only young girls in this stage have such blind confidence."
Little Lu listened as Lin Nuan slowly spoke, not at all able to detect the anger in Lin Nuan"s voice. Through the rearview mirror, he glanced at Lin Nuan, who was sitting in the back row with a slight and calm smile. He commented, "Madam, I think you"re becoming more and more similar to Sir in terms of your disposition!"
Lin Nuan paused in surprise.
It was often said that one was marked by the company they kept. Having been with Fu Huai"an for so long, his aura had long seeped into her bones. They were becoming more similar… because they had conformed to each other, be it physically or spiritually.
The car arrived at the spot where Sun Miaomiao got into a car accident, at the intersection between Chang"an West Road and Changming Road.
Through the winds.h.i.+eld, Little Lu saw Sun Miaomiao standing on the curb while holding onto her phone. The two cars had b.u.mped into each other at the U-turn spot. The Lincoln Stretch Limousine was moving straight, whereas Sun Miaomiao was turning. The one who was turning ought to give way to the one who was going straight. There was no argument about it; Sun Miaomiao needed to bear full responsibility.
The person at the wheel of the Lincoln Stretch Limousine was clearly a chauffeur. He was standing at the spot where the car was. .h.i.t, his hand touching the dented spot on the car door as he anxiously made a phone call. No matter how Lin Nuan looked at it, it didn"t look like someone was forcefully dragging Sun Miaomiao to socialize.
"Little Lu, when you find Sun Miaomiao"s information from when she registered for her interns.h.i.+p, contact her parents or her school. The compensation for this car should be quite a big sum. Who knows if Sun Miaomiao"s car insurance is enough to pay the compensation, and we can"t very well be the sucker and pay this off for her." Lin Nuan"s voice was indifferent.
Little Lu nodded and contacted HR, then asked them to contact Sun Miaomiao"s parents or her school directly.
"Madam, I"ll go and take a look first!" he said to Lin Nuan as he unbuckled his seatbelt.
Lin Nuan nodded. She raised her tablet computer and said to Little Lu, "If she insists on thanking Huai"an after the matter is settled, get her to come over…"
Understanding what Lin Nuan meant, Little Lu nodded. "Madam, don"t worry!"
Little Lu parked the car by the roadside, then turned on the double flas.h.i.+ng lights before getting out of the car.
Upon seeing Little Lu, Sun Miaomiao"s lips quivered, tears slipping down her cheeks continuously. Sun Miaomiao wiped her tears and walked towards Little Lu. She was just about to walk down the stairs when the Lincoln limousine"s driver yanked her by her arm, the anxious look on his face morphing into a ferocious one. "Where are you going? You"re leaving before we"re done talking about the compensation for the car?"
"I…" Sun Miaomiao looked speechless, turning her head sideways and pleading with Little Lu to help her with those watery eyes of hers.
The corners of Little Lu"s lips turned up. He smiled and b.u.t.toned his suit jacket properly before walking over leisurely. "Sir, why can"t you talk things over properly instead of getting physical with a lady?"
Little Lu then whipped out his name card from his suit pocket and handed it to the driver, saying, "I"m the personal a.s.sistant of the Kaide Corporation"s chairman, this is my name card!"
The driver didn"t release Sun Miaomiao"s slender wrist. He shot Little Lu a suspicious look before taking the name card. He stared at it for a while, then asked, "My car has been hit by her car. Are you going to pay the compensation for her?"
"I"ve already called the police, and I"ve also contacted Miss Sun"s parents and school. The car has got to be repaired since it was. .h.i.t. Instead of arguing here, why not get Miss Sun to hurry up and contact her insurance company to see how much her insurance will cover? You can contact her parents to make up for whatever shortfall there is and settle this matter as soon as possible!"
