Chapter 954: Give In to Me for a Lifetime?
Cen Mo had imagined Mr. Moral to be an older man…
That would explain why Gu Qingcheng replaced Mr. Moral after he built up his empire—because he had no strength to do it himself.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Moral… turned out to be Fu Huai’an!
It was only later that Cen Mo figured out that the reason Fu Huai’an handed the position over back then was for Tuan Tuan and Lin Nuan’s sake. Because of them, he wanted to retreat from that line of work entirely.
Never mind the fact that Cen Mo had seen with his own eyes how many triad leaders’ entire families were killed, just talking about Cen Mo’s ex-boss in the past…
Before Cen Mo got to his current position, the entire family of his ex-boss was met with an indescribably cruel end. Even the two-year-old illegitimate son and his wife, whom he settled down in Australia, didn’t manage to escape the ma.s.sacre.
In that line of work… unless one took things to the end, and provided they did it very well, there was no way one would end well.
Early on, when Cen Mo entered that line of work, he already had that realization. To protect his lover and child, Cen Mo had to solidify his position and take it to the end and become the best!
He felt that it was actually very dangerous for Fu Huai’an to hand such a huge organization to Gu Qingcheng, to retreat behind him.
Gu Qingcheng knew about his ident.i.ty. Should he turn against Fu Huai’an one day, it’d be elementary for him to kill Fu Huai’an.
Cen Mo would never do something like that. He felt that power and a sharp blade—those two things—must be held in his own hands, for that was the only way his mind would be at ease.
Fu Huai’an gazed at Cen Mo and said after a long time, “Your world is too sealed up…”
Although Fu Huai’an’s world used to be bitter, at least he had Gu Qingcheng, Lu Jinnan, Tang Zheng, and Bai Jinyu by his side all along!
As for Cen Mo, he had been lonely all his life because he had sealed off his entire world and refused to allow entry to anyone!
He didn’t have any friends in his world, only having Song Yao…
“You mean that I don’t have any friends?” Cen Mo seemed to have heard a joke. “If one day your friend Gu Qingcheng uses the sharp blade you sharpened from scratch to claim your life, you will realize that there’s no such thing as friends in this world, only interests!”
Being a person who had never experienced or possessed relations.h.i.+ps, no matter how much Fu Huai’an said, Cen Mo wouldn’t understand. Fu Huai’an was never one who did something futile, so he merely smiled and didn’t say anything, his black eyes as deep as the dark night.
…
Fu Huai’an slept pretty well last night. This morning, when the pet.i.te woman in his arms slightly stirred and woke up, he offered to send her to the set.
Yesterday, Fu Huai’an suddenly appeared at the set, and then later, all of the female crew members benefited. As the female lead, she would be able to leave work at 5 pm every day from now on. Hence, Lin Nuan felt that there wasn’t a need to take up Fu Huai’an’s time and have him send her to the set.
Turning around to glance at the sound asleep Tuan Tuan, Lin Nuan said, “I’ll be back at 5 pm, you go get busy with your work!”
“I’ve made arrangements for work…” Fu Huai’an tightened his grip around Lin Nuan’s slender wrist. “I don’t want to waste a minute or second that I can spend with Mrs. Fu!”
Lin Nuan turned around and gazed at Fu Huai’an, her ears flushed a shade of pink. She spoke romantic words in a soft and delicate voice, saying, “We have a lifetime ahead of us!”
“A lifetime is too short!” Fu Huai’an’s tone was final. “Wake up and wash up!”
When one was with the right person, even a lifetime would be considered too short…
Subtracting the time spent sleeping and working and the time before they met and were away from each other, the time they had to spend together was indeed too little!
Fu Huai’an had woken up before Lin Nuan.
Last night, the curtains weren’t completely drawn. The suns.h.i.+ne shone in from the windows, outlining Fu Huai’an’s tall and broad figure. Lin Nuan turned her head and glanced at Tuan Tuan before sitting up. She then tied up her hair and lifted the blankets, getting out of bed. After putting on her slippers, she ran to hug Fu Huai’an, whose hand was already holding the bathroom door handle, from behind. “I’ll go and wash up first…”
She pushed open the door with her hand, her pet.i.te frame squeezing under Fu Huai’an’s armpit. She then flashed Fu Huai’an a sly smile, clearly smug that she got there before he did.
Fu Huai’an’s elbow leaned against the door as he lowered his head and stared at the woman before him, a heartbreaking gentleness in his eyes. “Doesn’t Mrs. Fu know that there are two bathrooms in this suite?”
Lin Nuan was a little surprised. This… she really had no idea.
Fu Huai’an lowered his head and pecked Lin Nuan’s lips. His mature, deep, and s.e.xy voice had the effect of waking up every cell in one’s body, making one completely awake…
“Give in to you!” he said.
“Give in to me for a lifetime?” Lin Nuan asked.
Fu Huai’an smiled as he lowered his head and edged his thin lips closer to Lin Nuan’s ear. “Give in to you in the next lifetime too!”
The hot air and voice entered Lin Nuan’s ear together, making her heart soften.
Lin Nuan looked at Fu Huai’an as he straightened his back and went to the other bathroom. She bit her lips that had just been kissed by Fu Huai’an, then gently closed the bathroom door, her eyes moist.
Hence, early the next morning, Tuan Tuan, who was still sound asleep with his b.u.t.t sticking out, was once again abandoned by Papa.
When Tuan Tuan woke up, he discovered that Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan were no longer on the bed. On the other hand, Uncle Cen Mo was sitting on the sofa while reading the newspaper and eating breakfast.
The fluffy-haired Tuan Tuan sat up and rubbed his eyes, politely greeting Cen Mo in a soft and cute voice. “h.e.l.lo, Uncle…”
Cen Mo looked up and flashed a vibrant smile at Tuan Tuan, a doting look in his eyes. “You’ve woken up! Breakfast has been prepared for you. Your papa and mama aren’t around today. Uncle has prepared several types of fruit juice for you, see which type you like to drink later.”
At dinner last night, Cen Mo had heard… that to help Tuan Tuan lose weight, Fu Huai’an limited the quant.i.ty of fruit juice the child had every day. In order to please Tuan Tuan, Cen Mo decided to indulge the kid this way while Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an weren’t around, to build up the relations.h.i.+p with Tuan Tuan!
Seeing Tuan Tuan’s sleepy manner, Cen Mo smiled and folded the newspaper, setting it aside. He then walked towards the little one and said, “Uncle will help you wear your clothes. Where did your mama put away your little clothes yesterday? Uncle will help you retrieve them!”
Tuan Tuan shook his head and climbed down the bed. He bounced to his little luggage, dragging it out and opening it. He then retrieved the clothes he was planning to wear that day. Next, he placed the clothes on the bed and lowered his head, clumsily unb.u.t.toning his pajamas…
Seeing that his help wasn’t needed, Cen Mo stood by the side and watched as the little one took off his top and put on a hoodie sweater. He then took off his pajama bottoms to put on workout pants.
Cen Mo stared at the little one who, despite having clumsy actions, went about doing his thing methodically. This suddenly made him recall himself at this age, back when he was in the orphanage. He had put on clothes this way too…
