Chapter 788: A Mrs. Fu Who Matches Up to You!
The puppy guy had already left when Lin Nuan went upstairs to sleep. You Nainai left, and Mu Taotao got a ride from her.
The new house soon became quiet.
Lin Nuan held her phone in her hand. When she looked down, she saw that she had received messages from Xie Jingqian and Bai Xiaonian. She opened and read them while walking towards the kitchen.
‘Bai Xiaonian: Congratulations, Lady Boss of the Kaide Corporation!’
That was all there was to Bai Xiaonian’s message. Lin Nuan replied to her with a sweating emoji.
‘Xie Jingqian: d.a.m.n! You’re really something, Nuan Nuan! After fooling around for the whole night on your wedding night, you got up so early in the morning and left!’
‘Xie Jingqian: Be honest. Did you use those things last night?’
‘Xie Jingqian: It’s a pity that Dabai’s body hasn’t recovered yet. Otherwise, I’d want to play with Dabai too!’
‘Xie Jingqian: I’m really envious of you! Huai’an was in the special forces, so his body must be great! Don’t get the wrong idea! I still love Dabai! Dabai is the most handsome in the world. No one can convince me otherwise!’
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
Could she pretend that she didn’t see Xie Jingqian’s third and fourth messages?
She pushed open the kitchen door, and her nose was filled with the aroma of coffee.
Lin Nuan raised her head and saw the tall and long-legged Gu Qingcheng making coffee in front of the coffee machine. When he raised his head, he coincidentally met eyes with Lin Nuan.
When Lin Nuan saw Gu Qingcheng, she thought about the question he had asked her in front of the fireplace.
She loosened her grip on the door handle and walked into the kitchen.
“Do you want some?” Gu Qingcheng asked Lin Nuan as he raised the coffee pot.
Lin Nuan hesitated for a moment before she nodded, took out a cup from the cupboard, and placed it in front of Gu Qingcheng. “Thank you!”
The kitchen was so quiet that only the sound of coffee being poured into the cup could be heard. Lin Nuan opened the cupboard and took out sugar cubes. She couldn’t find milk in the refrigerator.
Gu Qingcheng pushed the porcelain cup in front of Lin Nuan and put the coffee pot back.
Lin Nuan held the cup of coffee in her hands and breathed in its aroma. The faint steam rising from the cup blurred her delicate and beautiful features.
Gu Qingcheng lifted his cup of coffee and placed one hand in his pocket. He said, “I haven’t had the chance to thank you yet. Thank you for saving Liuli.”
Lin Nuan looked up to see Gu Qingcheng’s serious and sincere expression. She held the cup of coffee in front of her chest. “I should be the one thanking you. If you hadn’t put yourself in danger and put yourself in that position, Huai’an and I wouldn’t have met. Saving Xiao Liuli was something I had to do!”
If not for Gu Qingcheng, Fu Huai’an would now be in a world completely foreign to Lin Nuan, living a life that Lin Nuan thought only existed in movies. How would they have had the chance to meet each other?
Gu Qingcheng smiled at Lin Nuan’s words.
Although Lin Nuan didn’t give Gu Qingcheng an answer to the question he asked her in front of the fireplace, he already knew what it would be.
If Lin Nuan considered her and Fu Huai’an to be one, how could she separate from him so easily?
Gu Qingcheng nodded. He was a man of even fewer words than Fu Huai’an.
There was a long silence, and Lin Nuan and Gu Qingcheng didn’t know what to do with themselves.
The kitchen door suddenly opened. Yun Liuli’s face and nose were red from the cold as she stepped inside.
There was a bright smile in her eyes when she saw Lin Nuan and Gu Qingcheng drinking coffee. She called Lin Nuan “Sister Xiao Nuan” and jogged over to Gu Qingcheng. As she tiptoed and held onto Gu Qingcheng’s wrist, she pulled his cup of coffee close enough for her to drink it and took a sip. She then looked up at Gu Qingcheng and frowned. “Why didn’t you add sugar?”
Gu Qingcheng looked at her lovingly before he turned and used the tongs to place four cubes of sugar into the cup. “Go drink it outside!”
Not wanting to disturb Gu Qingcheng and Yun Liuli, Lin Nuan held her cup of coffee and said that she would head upstairs first.
Just as she walked out of the kitchen, Lin Nuan received a call from Fang Yan. Fang Yan said that Fu Tianci took the initiative to contact her and ask when they could reconvene to film the program. She wanted to see what Lin Nuan thought.
Fang Yan didn’t ask Lin Nuan about what happened at home. Fu Huai’an joining the Kaide Corporation’s board of directors as the largest shareholder wasn’t only Lin Nuan’s personal matter, but it was also her husband’s work matter.
Lin Nuan thought that Fu Tianci would remain in shock for at least half a month to a month, possibly even being too traumatized to go to Jinjiang TV Station. She didn’t think he would take the initiative to contact Fang Yan and ask about the filming.
Before Lin Nuan could respond, her phone vibrated. She pulled her phone away to glance at it and saw that it was a message from Fu Tianci.
She opened it.
‘Fu Tianci: I just called Ms. Fang to ask her when we’ll be reconvening to film the program. She said that she’d see what you think. I’m available at any time!’
After reading Fu Tianci’s message, Lin Nuan said to Fang Yan, “Depends on the situation at the TV station. Fu Tianci sent me a message, and he said he’s available at any time.”
“What about you? Are you done settling things at home?” Fang Yan’s question was vague as she didn’t intend to poke her nose into the Kaide Corporation’s matters.
“Yeah, I’m available any time too!”
“Then, I’ll ask Jinjiang TV Station and confirm the time for filming as soon as possible!”
After Lin Nuan hung up, a servant downstairs respectfully told her that dinner was being prepared and asked her when she wanted it to be served.
Lin Nuan wasn’t sure if Fu Huai’an had come out of the study yet. She asked the servant to wait and walked to the study, gently pus.h.i.+ng open the door slightly.
The meeting was coming to an end, and Lin Nuan heard Fu Huai’an say that the meeting would stop there.
Fu Huai’an sat in a chair behind his desk, and white smoke rose from between his long fingers. He looked up towards the entrance, glancing in Lin Nuan’s direction. After extinguis.h.i.+ng the cigarette, he motioned for Lin Nuan to enter the study.
After closing the door, Lin Nuan saw Fu Huai’an close his laptop. While walking towards him, she said, “The servants are preparing dinner in the kitchen right now, and they asked me when dinner should be served.”
Seeing as Lin Nuan had walked over to him, Fu Huai’an took her cup of coffee, placed it on the desk, grabbed her slender wrist, and pulled her into his arms.
“Why didn’t you sleep for a while more?” Fu Huai’an asked.
“I can’t sleep comfortably without you around.”
Lin Nuan laid in Fu Huai’an’s arms with her head against his chest. Hearing his strong and powerful heartbeat made her feel at ease. She asked, “Are you done settling the matters regarding the Kaide Corporation?”
Fu Huai’an nodded. “The name list for the Kaide Corporation’s management will be announced on the official website soon.”
Fu Huai’an played with Lin Nuan’s fingers, which were like jade pipes and very nice to touch, before lowering his head to kiss them. His deep and magnetic voice was apologetic as he said, “When I’m busier in the future, I may not have that much time to spend with you.”
“You’re working your way up. I have to work hard on my career too so that I can be a Mrs. Fu who matches up to you!” Lin Nuan smiled at Fu Huai’an.
This time, Fu Huai’an was making a bold move.
Fu Qingquan had contacted a few chairmen and convinced them not to show up to put Fu Huai’an in a tight spot. Despite this, Fu Huai’an owned more than 50% of the Kaide Corporation’s shares. He definitely had the final say when it came to matters concerning the Kaide Corporation.
