Lin Nuan dragged her fatigued body out from the bedroom and heard the sounds of clinking dishes coming from the kitchen. Wearing Fu Huai"an"s s.h.i.+rt, Lin Nuan tidied up her hair and walked toward the kitchen.
Not only was Fu Huai"an not tired, but he seemed to be a lot more energetic. To think that he would have the energy to be busying around in the kitchen.
Lin Nuan tiptoed over like a sneaky cat, lightly walking up behind Fu Huai"an and wrapping her arms around his slim waist. "Let"s watch a movie at home next time…"
"En…" Fu Huai"an tossed an eggsh.e.l.l casually but accurately into the trash. His big hand with distinct joints held chopsticks and beat the egg, his movements flowing smoothly. "It"s convenient at home!"
They both understood what the other meant. Lin Nuan rubbed against Fu Huai"an"s back, smelling his pleasant masculine scent that was mixed with his strong hormones. Lin Nuan"s heart was palpitating a little fast.
She lowered her voice and said, "In the future… don"t get involved in danger again, alright?"
Fu Huai"an put the whisked eggs into the steamer, then turned to hug Lin Nuan. The two of them left the kitchen…
On the sofa, Fu Huai"an let Lin Nuan sit down on his legs. He raised his hands to tuck Lin Nuan"s stray hair behind her ears. "I promise you that I won"t get into danger easily in the future!"
Lin Nuan wrapped her arms around Fu Huai"an"s neck. She didn"t want to argue about the little details with Fu Huai"an…
After returning to the Fu residence, Lin Nuan didn"t want to be carried from the car by Fu Huai"an. However, her legs were still feeling very weak, so she held onto Fu Huai"an"s arm and entered.
Tuan Tuan knew that Fu Huai"an had returned today, so he had been sitting at the stairs, looking toward the entryway. The moment he saw Lin Nuan and Fu Huai"an, he ran over to the two of them and called out, "Papa! Mama!"
The kid didn"t hang onto Fu Huai"an like a little sloth, using both his arms and legs together. Instead, he seemed to be hiding something behind his back.
"Sir, Tuan Tuan has a present for you!" Auntie Li smiled and said.
Tuan Tuan"s ears turned red. He nodded and looked up at Fu Huai"an, taking out a red flower from behind his back. He gestured toward Fu Huai"an with one hand, getting Fu Huai"an to bend over.
Fu Huai"an held onto Lin Nuan"s small hand and squatted down…
The kid pasted the red flower onto Fu Huai"an"s chest very seriously, then solemnly patted Fu Huai"an"s shoulder with his plump hand. "Papa, work hard!"
"Work hard? In what?" Lin Nuan bent over and patted Tuan Tuan"s small head.
"Younger brother!" Tuan Tuan"s voice was very bright.
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
Yun Liuli had read a storybook to Tuan Tuan. In the story, in order to encourage the little squirrel to put more effort into its studies, the teacher squirrel rewarded it with a big red flower. In order not to let its teacher"s red flower down, the little squirrel worked hard on its studies, eventually obtaining full marks and coming in first place in the year-end examinations!
Tuan Tuan recalled that his papa said that he wanted to give him a younger brother or sister. But until now, Tuan Tuan still hadn"t seen one. He really wanted one, so he made a big red flower to encourage his papa, hoping that he would be able to give him a younger brother or sister quickly!
When Auntie Li heard Tuan Tuan"s innocent babbling, she covered her mouth and smiled. "Tuan Tuan wants a companion! Sir, Madam, quickly give Tuan Tuan a younger brother or sister while you"re still young! I can still help take care of the child!"
Lin Nuan couldn"t continue the topic with Auntie Li and Tuan Tuan. She endured the flush on her face, smiling as she patted Tuan Tuan"s small head. "Tuan Tuan will have a younger brother or sister, you will…"
Tuan Tuan nodded. "En!"
…
Fu Huai"an said that he had taken leave the next day, so the two of them locked their bedroom door that night, replicating the bathroom scene from the movie they had watched at the theater that morning.
Lin Nuan was extremely tired. She laid in Fu Huai"an"s arms, but she couldn"t sleep.
She kept her eyes closed, enjoying being together with Fu Huai"an, not doing or saying anything. They just cuddled closely together in bed. Her mind felt very much at ease.
Fu Huai"an suddenly grabbed her wrist, and Lin Nuan opened her eyes, looking toward him under the dim lights.
"Will you be with me for the entire day tomorrow?" Lin Nuan asked.
"Do you have plans tomorrow?" Fu Huai"an asked.
Lin Nuan laid on Fu Huai"an"s chest, a smile in her eyes. "I don"t have any plans. I just want to be together with you like this, even if we don"t do anything and just lay in bed! I don"t want to be apart from you! I don"t even want to be away from you for a second…"
