Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Ah Zhan nodded at Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan. “Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu! My master has been waiting for a while. This way please…”

You Nainai and Little Lu nodded at Ah Zhan, following behind Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan. However, they were subjected to a simple check at the door before being allowed to enter.

The hotel restaurant was cleared away, decorated with fresh flowers; under the crystal chandelier in the magnificent lobby, there was only one round table.

It was an arrangement that would have given off a solemn vibe if not for the vibrant and colorful flowers all around, which instead gave the restaurant a romantic ambiance, making one less nervous.

Li Muyang, who was standing at the window admiring Venice’s night view, turned his head around. At first sight, he caught Lin Nuan, who wore a black gown. His gaze darkened.

Lin Nuan was holding on to Fu Huai’an’s arm, her straight legs appearing fair and slim, and her graceful neck with its beautiful curves appearing gentle and fair. She was as exquisite as a painting, making one unable to take their eyes off of her. Under the lighting, she appeared lovely and gentle… making one’s body desire to own her, to leave behind a kiss that belonged to them on that beautiful neck.

That subtle glow in Li Muyang’s eyes got buried into the depths of his eyes in an instant.

He smiled, walking towards Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan…

Fu Huai’an was in a suit himself, with deep facial features and a tall and broad figure. His suit was unbuttoned, revealing a white shirt with no tie and an unbuttoned collar. Striding over with those long legs of his, he gave off an intimidating and mature vibe, one which had an imposing effect on others.

Little Lu and You Nainai, who followed behind Fu Huai’an, were changed into formal wear too.

You Nainai stuck close to Lin Nuan. She was clear about her responsibility, which was to protect Lin Nuan.

She could vaguely sense that there were more and more people eyeing them now…

You Nainai’s eyes were sharp. Li Muyang’s identity was unclear, and his intention for inviting them to this meal was unknown, so You Nainai paid particular attention to the restaurant’s surroundings, staying on alert just in case a situation were to arise.

Li Muyang was wearing a suit, but because he was overly thin, his frame was barely able to hold it up.

Lin Nuan was fair to begin with, and the black she was wearing complemented her skin tone and gave her a clean aura. Her palm-sized face appeared exquisite under the lighting, especially those eyes of hers, which were so black and bright that they appeared to have been polished.

Li Muyang’s eyes twinkled with a smile as he walked towards Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan. Buttoning his suit properly, he formally extended a hand. “Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu…”

Li Muyang nodded at Lin Nuan and extended his hand towards Fu Huai’an.

The maybe-smiling-maybe-not expression in his eyes made Lin Nuan feel wary. In a way that went unnoticed, her brows slightly furrowed as she nodded at Li Muyang before politely saying, “Mr. Li…”

Fu Huai’an shook Li Muyang’s pale and frail-looking large hand.

Since Matt De Niro extended the invitation under the name Li Muyang, there was nothing wrong with Fu Huai’an addressing him as Mr. Li.

“Back in America, Mr. Fu is well known. To be able to meet you in person is a great pleasure!” Li Muyang’s voice carried a smile as he looked at Lin Nuan.

After letting go of Fu Huai’an’s hand, Li Muyang apologized in a gentlemanly manner. “Apologies, that morning in the restaurant, I gave Mrs. Fu a scare. I didn’t have any ill intentions, it’s just that Mrs. Fu’s voice resembles my deceased lover’s. Really… really resembles, so I wanted to speak with Mrs. Fu. I don’t wish for Mrs. Fu to misunderstand me, so I’m here to apologize to Mrs. Fu!”

Then, Li Muyang made a “this way please” gesture, turning his body sideways and inviting Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an to take their seats.

Fu Huai’an’s gaze appeared deep, the knowing smile at the corners of his lips revealed his shrewdness. Standing next to a man like Li Muyang, his aura still appeared intimidating, even slightly more so than Li Muyang’s.

Lin Nuan couldn’t very well turn Li Muyang down, seeing as he was so polite. The little hand of hers that was holding onto Fu Huai’an’s arm grabbed his sleeve gently as she revealed a smile. “Mr. Li, you’re being too kind.”

Fu Huai’an’s deep gaze carried a smile as his eyes met Li Muyang’s…

“This way please, Mr. Fu!” Li Muyang made another “this way please” gesture.

Beside the table, Li Muyang very helpfully pulled out a chair for Lin Nuan as a slightly raspy sounding cello started playing softly. “If Mrs. Fu doesn’t mind, can you call me Muyang?”

This was an abrupt request. Lin Nuan turned her head, and her eyes met Li Muyang’s scorching gaze, sending chills into her heart.

Fu Huai’an pulled out a chair leisurely, his deep gaze appearing peaceful. He spoke in his mature and calm voice, saying, “I heard that Mr. Li’s lover had a similar voice to my wife’s. This request inevitably leads one to overthink…”

Lin Nuan feigned calmness and thanked Li Muyang, then sat down in the chair that Fu Huai’an pulled out for her, increasing the distance between her and Li Muyang. She then said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Li. Although my voice resembles your lover’s, I’m not your lover. It’s inappropriate for me to address you that way.”

Li Muyang didn’t feel awkward being misunderstood as trying to find his lover’s shadow in Lin Nuan. There was even a smile in the depths of his eyes. It seemed like Lin Nuan was rather loyal to Fu Huai’an.

Li Muyang pushed the heavy chair back in and apologized. “Sorry, I was too abrupt.”

Fu Huai’an laid an opened napkin on Lin Nuan’s lap after taking his seat, his actions appearing casual…

From his peripheral vision, Li Muyang caught this action, and a smile with profound significance appeared on his lips.

Fu Huai’an had heard that Matt De Niro’s lover was his mother’s caregiver, who was older than him by four years. She also shared the same nationality as Matt De Niro’s mother, so his mother was very fond of her.

Later, when Matt De Niro’s mother passed away, he fetched her to his side.

You Nainai, Little Lu, and Ah Zhan stood not far away. Perhaps because You Nainai was a woman, plus the fact that he noticed that she was wearing high heels, Ah Zhan asked her in a low voice, “Do you need to sit down and rest for a while?”

You Nainai warily glanced at Ah Zhan, then exchanged positions with Little Lu, standing further away from Ah Zhan, unwilling to chat with the latter.

Ah Zhan was rendered speechless.

Did he look so scary?

At the dining table, Lin Nuan lowered her head and focused on eating, not planning to talk with Li Muyang anymore.

Li Muyang kept trying to bring up new topics, but every time, Fu Huai’an seamlessly carried on the conversation from there.

Fu Huai’an was a good conversationalist, so it was all rather pleasant. As for Lin Nuan, she merely sat there and ate by herself.

The meal didn’t turn out to be as aggressive and confrontational as Lin Nuan had imagined. Most of the time, it was Li Muyang who was talking, while Fu Huai’an was the one listening…
