Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Lin Nuan’s fists tightened by her sides, and she felt as if something was stuck in her throat.

“But my husband no longer deals with this himself! He handed all this to someone else!”

Lin Nuan looked at Li Muyang, her gaze clear and abnormally resolute. “He’s different from you! You said it too; my husband is different from you. Even if he deals in such a dangerous business, at least he has a bottom-line when it comes to morals! He and you… aren’t at all the same!”

“Then, Nuan Nuan, are you willing to admit that you and I belong to the same world?”

After going one big round and exposing Fu Huai’an’s background, Li Muyang merely wanted Lin Nuan to admit that they were people from the same world?

Lin Nuan shook her head resolutely. “We’re not people from the same world. You and I, Huai’an and you, aren’t people from the same world!”

Facing Lin Nuan’s stubborn manner and reluctance to admit her mistake, Li Muyang didn’t insist or rebut her. He had a smile on his lips, and his classically European-style eyes appeared deeper yet. “They say it’s easy to deceive others, but not oneself. I hope you truly feel the same way in your heart!”

The two of them remained rooted to the ground, seeming as if they were frozen in that position. If it weren’t for the butterflies dancing around them, others would feel that Lin Nuan and Li Muyang were people in a painting.

Ah Zhan entered through a small door and quickly strode to Li Muyang’s side, covering his hand over his mouth as he whispered something in Li Muyang’s ear.

Lin Nuan could see that Ah Zhan’s other hand was hanging before his chest. Recalling that Li Muyang said Ah Zhan had gotten injured rescuing her, her lips slightly trembled, unsure whether she ought to thank him.

“So fast?” Li Muyang’s dark gaze carried a smile.

Lin Nuan could sense that, perhaps, Gu Qingcheng was here to fetch her.

Lin Nuan swallowed back those words of thanks as she grew nervous, afraid that Li Muyang would be unwilling to release her!

Ah Zhan nodded. “I’ve invited him to the living room. Sir, do you want me to…”

Ah Zhan hesitated with the words “send him away” since Lin Nuan was around.

Ah Zhan knew that Li Muyang felt differently towards Lin Nuan, and although he was unwilling to let Gu Qingcheng take Lin Nuan away, he couldn’t very well say it so blatantly before her.

Li Muyang looked at Lin Nuan’s clear eyes, which were so pure that they made one’s heart throb. His Adam’s apple slightly vibrated…

Even though Lin Nuan appeared to be calm, the fists clenching by her sides betrayed her true emotions.

“Your husband’s man, Mr. Gu, is here for you!” Li Muyang said to Lin Nuan honestly.

Ah Zhan felt gloomy, not able to understand why his boss had to be so frank with Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan was smarter than Shi Hanmei, and Li Muyang knew he couldn’t hide this from her. Therefore, rather than making her detest him, he went ahead and told her the truth.

Although she wasn’t familiar with Gu Qingcheng, Lin Nuan still felt overwhelmed hearing that he had arrived to pick her up.

Hearing Li Muyang’s words, Lin Nuan didn’t utter a sound, merely staring straight at Li Muyang, waiting for him to say whether he was going to release her or not. She felt a little panicked.

“Nuan Nuan…” Li Muyang said in a very low voice, his gaze unfathomable. “In America, I’m the only person who is capable of protecting you. Gu Qingcheng came here in a hurry, so several people are eyeing him. If you leave with him, you are bound to expose Fu Huai’an. If you want to leave with him, I will absolutely not stop you!”

Lin Nuan paused.

“Everyone wants to find out who this Mr. Moral behind Gu Qingcheng’s back is. If you leave so openly with Gu Qingcheng, smart people will naturally be able to follow up on this clue and figure out the culprit. No matter how well Gu Qingcheng covers his tracks, they will, at most, take half a month to trace it to Fu Huai’an! By then, your peaceful days in Haicheng will be over…”

She didn’t know whether Li Muyang was exaggerating things to scare her, but if that was his intention, then he had succeeded!

Lin Nuan’s mind was in turmoil after hearing Li Muyang put it this way.

The sound of birds chirping and water flowing rang in her ears, and she forced herself to calm down. Holding back the sensation of her racing heart, she smiled and said to Li Muyang, “Mr. Li is exaggerating things. Never mind whether Mr. Li’s hearsay about my husband being this so-called Mr. Moral is true, even if he is, Gu Qingcheng and my husband are best friends, so if someone could trace it to my husband… they would long since have done so. Why would they wait until today?”

Lin Nuan smiled to put on a bold front…

But Lin Nuan didn’t feel as sure in her heart!

She had seen Gu Qingcheng before, which meant that Gu Qingcheng frequently returned to Haicheng to meet up with Fu Huai’an. As Lin Nuan said, if people could trace it to Fu Huai’an, they’d long since have done so!

Li Muyang’s gaze turned dark. He increasingly felt that Lin Nuan was smart, and it made him desire her more. It wasn’t easy for her to maintain her calm in a moment like this. He was happy about Lin Nuan’s intellectual capacity, but it also angered him that Lin Nuan’s intelligence didn’t give him any chance at all.

If Shi Hanmei were half as smart as Lin Nuan, perhaps she wouldn’t have died or brought such great trouble upon him…

“Nuan Nuan, you’re really… so smart that it surprised me!” Li Muyang maintained a gentle smile on his lips, but there was now visible, albeit mild, anger on his handsome and thin face.

Facing Lin Nuan made Li Muyang feel helpless for the first time!

He could lie and plot, but Lin Nuan was too intelligent!

But he couldn’t hit or kill. Li Muyang had anger in his heart, but he couldn’t unleash it, lest he scared Lin Nuan off.

Facing Lin Nuan made Li Muyang feel both happy and tormented at the same time.

“You may go with Gu Qingcheng, but I hope you remember my fondness and fiery sincerity towards you!” Li Muyang said, his gaze slightly cold, not fiery like his words.

Lin Nuan didn’t say a word. Since she was about to leave, Lin Nuan didn’t wish to continue arguing with Li Muyang, in case he changed his mind about letting her go.

“If you don’t mind, you may walk around here for now. I have other matters to speak to Mr. Gu about. When we’re done… I’ll get Ah Zhan to bring you there!” Li Muyang looked at Ah Zhan, who nodded.

After watching Li Muyang leave, Ah Zhan stood 2m away from Lin Nuan. He smiled and said, “Ms. Lin, feel free to walk around…”

Lin Nuan’s vision fell upon Ah Zhan’s hand, which was dangling before his chest. After all, he had gotten injured trying to save her, so Lin Nuan asked, “Is your injury fine?”

“It’s fine, that person didn’t carry a gun. It’s just that the dagger was too sharp, and I belittled that person, which gave him a chance to injure me!” Ah Zhan insisted on speaking with Lin Nuan in her mother tongue, so he fumbled a little.

Lin Nuan smiled at Ah Zhan and thanked him, saying, “Thank you for saving me!”

“I did it for my boss! Ms. Lin… our boss is a good person! Even though others don’t know, he truly is a good person! It’s a blissful thing to be liked by him! Our boss is very pitiful! I once thought about abducting you to my boss’s side quietly, but our boss didn’t agree! Ms. Lin, if it’s possible, could you stay and accompany our boss?”
