Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Early the next morning, Lin Nuan had to force herself to open her eyes.

She remembered that she had promised to take Tuan Tuan to the kindergarten.

Lin Nuan felt sore and fatigued throughout. The exhausted Lin Nuan sat up with great effort. The sounds of the shower from the bathroom didn’t sound like they came from the right direction; only after inspecting her surroundings did she realize that this wasn’t the master bedroom.

Why did they come to the guest room?

Lin Nuan lifted the sheets. Her legs felt so sore that it took her effort to shift her legs off the bed.

Fu Huai’an, the big lecher! Lin Nuan internally mumbled!

She picked up her sleeping robe and put it on, tightening the belt before standing up with support from the sides of the bed, planning to go to the master bedroom to wash up.

The minute she entered the master bedroom, which had its windows shut tight all night, a lewd scent attacked her senses, giving Lin Nuan a shock.

Her and Fu Huai’an’s clothes were strewn all over the ground, and the silk bed sheets were also in a mess.

Bits and pieces from the night before began replaying in Lin Nuan’s mind, making her entire body heat up.

If she hadn’t forced herself to wake up, if Auntie Li saw the master bedroom like this, with this stench and in such a state…

She really wouldn’t have the face to face Auntie Li!

At the thought of this, Lin Nuan was so terrified that she couldn’t be bothered with the soreness she was feeling all over her body. She immediately bent over to pick up the clothes on the ground and tossed them onto the large bed, then turned around and walked over to the windows to open them and ventilate the room.

She then rolled up the bedsheets together with those dirty clothes she had tossed onto the bed, hugging them as she entered the bathroom.

Lin Nuan finished tidying up the master bedroom in one breath. Even after opening the windows and letting the fresh air enter the room for a good while, Lin Nuan still felt that there was a stench in the room, unsure whether it was merely a psychological effect.

She found a bottle of air freshener in the bathroom and sprayed it, then took the dirty clothes and bedsheets downstairs, stuffing them into the laundry basket and washing machine respectively.

After she was done with all this, a thin layer of sweat had already formed on Lin Nuan’s body.

Lin Nuan went up the stairs with the support of the handrails, then took a hot bath. Only then did she feel like the soreness of her body was eased.

Lin Nuan exited the bathroom after blowing her hair to a half-dry state. She then spread fresh sheets over the bed. She glanced at her watch; seeing that it was still early, she planned to let Tuan Tuan sleep for 20 more minutes before waking him up. She herself fell on the bed.

Very quickly, she felt drowsy. The speed at which Lin Nuan’s eyes opened and closed became slower and slower.

The tiny Tuan Tuan stood tiptoe on one foot and, with great difficulty, finally managed to open the door. He saw Lin Nuan, who had fallen asleep, wearing a sleeping robe as she curled up on the bed, with nothing covering her.

The little one bounced towards Lin Nuan, his hands spread on the large bed as he stood again, on tiptoes, and edged his little face close to Lin Nuan. Seeing Lin Nuan sleeping with her cheeks flushed red, Tuan Tuan, who was only in his Little Moomo pajamas, felt that the room was a little cold.

Tuan Tuan was afraid Mama might catch a cold, so he ran to the French windows and pushed against the glass with both hands effortfully. He then took a blanket from his own closet and half-dragged-half-carried it to the master bedroom, huffing and puffing.

After placing the blanket on the sofa, Tuan Tuan wiped his sweat with the back of his chubby little hand. After, he gently closed the door before dragging the blanket to the side of the bed, huffing and puffing.

Tuan Tuan was short and had little strength. He ran over and raised the blanket, wanting to place it on the bed, but with a slip of his hand, the blanket fell onto the ground.

Tuan Tuan stood rooted to the ground, not sure what to do. He stared at the large blanket by his feet, then turned to look at the soundly asleep Lin Nuan…

Tuan Tuan rooted for himself; he was a little man, Papa had said it… he had to take care of Mama. Papa also said one would catch a cold if they slept without a blanket!

Tuan Tuan’s fair and tender little face tightened as he thought hard to come up with a solution, a look of seriousness on his face.

After a long while, Tuan Tuan suddenly propped his hands against the large bed and raised his chubby little leg, climbing onto the bed with much difficulty. Tuan Tuan’s entire body was sprawled on the bed as he lifted the blanket up a little. He then sat on the bed and pulled up the blanket little by little, his tiny bottom shifting back little by little…

Tuan Tuan, who was using all his strength, suddenly felt the blanket’s weight lighten. His entire being then involuntarily did a backward somersault. His little hand, however, held the blanket in a death grip, and he refused to let go, so he was rolled into the sheets. By the time Tuan Tuan dizzily crawled out from within the sheets, his black and soft hair was already a mess.

Seeing that the blanket had been entirely pulled up by him, his mouth widened in a smile. His little bottom then stuck up as he covered Lin Nuan with those blankets.

Tuan Tuan, who had to exert all this effort right after waking, was exhausted by now. He opened his mouth and let out a yawn, then squirmed under the blanket, his body tightly pressed against the warm Lin Nuan, thinking… he’d just shut his eyes and stay by Mama’s side for five minutes, just five minutes would do!

Soon after, the child’s light breathing fell as Lin Nuan’s breathing rose.

Downstairs, Fu Huai’an had already finished his breakfast, but he had yet to see Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan come down.

Auntie Li just told him that Tuan Tuan was already awake. He had said he would just take a look at Mama, and then he’d change into his clothes himself and come downstairs.

Fu Huai’an glanced at his wristwatch, then folded the newspaper and set it down at the corner of the dining table. He then stood up to go to the master bedroom.

The minute he opened the door, Fu Huai’an saw a large and a small body sharing a blanket, sleeping soundly; the other half of the blanket had drooped to the ground.

Such a heartwarming scene was hard to come by. Fu Huai’an gently let go of the door handle, unable to bear waking them up.

However… if he still didn’t do so, Tuan Tuan would be late for kindergarten.

Just as he was hesitating about whether or not to wake them up, Lin Nuan suddenly tossed around, her arm falling on Tuan Tuan, who was sleeping by her side.

Lin Nuan got a scare from the warm and soft touch and immediately propped herself up. The remaining half of the blanket that was still on the bed fell to the ground before Lin Nuan had a chance to catch it.

The sleepy Lin Nuan turned her head and saw that what her arm came into contact with earlier was Tuan Tuan, who was in his Little Moomo pajamas.

His hands were crossed under his chubby little face, and his little bottom was sticking out as he lay sprawled on the bed, fast asleep.

Because the blanket had fallen off, Tuan Tuan felt cold, so he curled up his little body, then mumbled something before falling asleep again.

“Tuan Tuan’s going to be late for kindergarten if we don’t wake him up!” Fu Huai’an reminded her.

Lin Nuan glanced at Fu Huai’an, then at the sound asleep Tuan Tuan next to her, hesitating.

After bringing up the blanket to cover Tuan Tuan, Lin Nuan gently patted Tuan Tuan on his back. Sensing Tuan Tuan move a little, she then gently spoke into his ear, saying, “Tuan Tuan, time to wake up and go to kindergarten!”

Tuan Tuan had yet to wake. Hearing Lin Nuan’s voice, he subconsciously turned over, his two little arms hugging Lin Nuan’s arm, his chubby little face rubbing against Lin Nuan as he found a comfortable spot. His soft little mouth pressed against Lin Nuan’s wrist. He seemed like he was going to doze off again.

“Tuan Tuan…” Lin Nuan called Tuan Tuan’s name softly, gently caressing Tuan Tuan’s little face and head. She spoke into the little one’s ear. “Time to go to kindergarten! You promised to bring Little Candy a bag of candy.”
