Chapter 536: Where Do I Go to Heat Up the Milk for Your Wife!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Someone shook his head at this, not able to understand Fu Qingquan’s motivation behind doing so!
Fu Huai’an was Fu Qingquan’s biological maternal grandson. With him at the helm of the Kaide Corporation, the company had excellent performance. So why did he insist on paying such a high price for an illegitimate son to inherit the Kaide Corporation? If things went awry… he might end up having to part with half of the company to an outsider—how ridiculous!
But others also understood Fu Qingquan’s feelings of wanting his own son to inherit the Kaide Corporation…
“I’m not sure if Fu Huai’an will attend the event…” Someone suddenly mentioned this.
“No idea. If it were me, I wouldn’t come. To be suddenly robbed of the Kaide Corporation, which was mine to begin with—why would I still want to give face to this illegitimate son?”
“Hard to say. Back in those days in Jincheng, Fu Huai’an was regarded as the Jiang’s illegitimate son, so perhaps they can appreciate each other because, you know, like knows like!”
The minute those words of jest came out, they heard Lu Jinnan’s dilly-dally tone of voice over their heads.
“The way you’re putting it, it sounds like you’re willing to give face to an illegitimate son. Don’t tell me you’re all illegitimate sons and are only supporting him because ‘like knows like’?”
Several of them got a scare. When they looked up, they saw the suited Lu Jinnan carrying champagne in one hand, his other hand in his pocket. He was standing on the stairs, staring at the group of them with a hint of a smile.
Lu Jinnan’s reputation was something no one in Haicheng hadn’t heard of before!
With blood on his hands and a ferocious manner of handling things, they more or less had some fear towards Lu Jinnan, who was working under Fu Huai’an.
Having been caught mocking Fu Huai’an’s identity by Lu Jinnan, they sheepishly smiled and waved hello before dispersing.
If they still didn’t scram, and if Lu Jinnan were to remember them, who knew what unfortunate events would befall them.
…
Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan didn’t arrive too late, but it wasn’t early either.
He parked the car in the parking lot within the manor. Fu Huai’an unbuckled his seatbelt and turned his head to look at Tuan Tuan in the backseat. He then looked at Lin Nuan, who was about to reach out to open the door, and said, “There’s no hurry to enter. Are you hungry? I’ll get you and Tuan Tuan some snacks and milk.”
Lin Nuan’s hand remained on the door. “No hurry to enter?”
“Eat something to fill your stomach a little! It doesn’t matter for Tuan Tuan, but you might not have the time to eat later!” Fu Huai’an said to Lin Nuan with his hand leaning on the back of the front passenger seat.
Retrieving two pieces of chocolate from her bag, Lin Nuan showed them to Fu Huai’an. “Tuan Tuan gave me these. I’ve eaten a piece…”
Just then, Lu Jinnan’s phone call came in.
“Your phone!” Lin Nuan retracted the hand holding those chocolates and motioned towards the vibrating phone on the dashboard with her gaze.
Turning his head, Fu Huai’an took the phone and answered the call before putting it to his ear. “We’re already here…”
It was a mystery what Lu Jinnan said that made Fu Huai’an reply, “I’m in the parking lot. Bring me some snacks and cake so that Lin Nuan can fill her stomach. It’d be even better if there was hot milk…”
Lu Jinnan was speechless.
Was he treating him like a maid?
“Where do I go to heat up the milk for your wife!”
Even if Fu Huai’an didn’t put the call on speakerphone, Lin Nuan would still have heard that Lu Jinnan’s voice had gone up a pitch.
The car was so well-confined that even if she wanted to pretend she didn’t hear that, it wouldn’t work!
“Find a servant to prepare two cups. Say there’s a kid, Tuan Tuan’s here…”
Fu Huai’an then looked at Lin Nuan in the rearview mirror; her ears were flushed as she removed the children’s seat seatbelt for Tuan Tuan.
“So, you’ve forgotten your son and only remember your wife? Only when you’re asking a servant for milk do you drag your son in as an excuse?”
Lu Jinnan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“We’ll wait for you in the parking lot!”
After Fu Huai’an hung up the call, Tuan Tuan couldn’t stay still in the car and wanted to get out. Lin Nuan followed after Tuan Tuan to take care of him.
The little one squatted in the temporary parking lot laid with rocks, picking up rocks from the ground. Lin Nuan stood by the car door and watched as Tuan Tuan picked up a carefully-chosen rock and turned around to show it to her with a proud look and a big grin on his face.
A gentle breeze blew by. Lin Nuan felt a little cold, so she raised her hands to rub against her arms.
She then felt something on her shoulders, and a warm and large suit jacket enveloped her within it. She turned her head around to see the man by her side…
Fu Huai’an had draped the suit jacket over Lin Nuan’s shoulders and was holding an unlit cigarette in his hand, his other hand retrieving a lighter from his pocket. “Second cigarette today!”
Lin Nuan wasn’t expecting Fu Huai’an to quit smoking entirely in such a short time; for Fu Huai’an to only be on his second cigarette at this hour, Lin Nuan could accept it. She nodded her head.
After obtaining permission from his lover, Fu Huai’an sent the cigarette to the corner of his lips and slightly lowered his head. With one hand shielding the fire from the lighter, he lit the cigarette. He inhaled on the cigarette, and as he slipped the lighter back into his pants pocket, he removed the cigarette from his lips. He leaned against the car with one hand in his pocket and gazed through the white smoke at Tuan Tuan, who was stuffing pebbles into his pocket.
Lin Nuan’s peripheral vision caught the man’s perfectly-chiseled facial features. Remembering how Fu Huai’an had asked Lu Jinnan to bring her and Tuan Tuan some snacks and cake, she couldn’t resist edging closer to Fu Huai’an, her body and Fu Huai’an’s drawing close to each other.
“I’ve thought about it. We’ll go to Dubai first, followed by the City of Canals, Venice…” Lin Nuan tucked her hair, which had been made messy by the wind, behind her ears, then spoke as she turned her head to look at Fu Huai’an.
She had heard that if lovers were to kiss under the Bridge of Sighs in Venice, their love would last forever.
Fu Huai’an nodded, then put an arm around Lin Nuan’s shoulders. His rich and intoxicating low voice rang beside Lin Nuan’s ear. “You want to kiss me under the Bridge of Sighs?”
“What nonsense are you thinking? I’ve wanted to go there ever since I watched the movie ‘A Little Romance.’ It’s just that I’ve never had the chance to.”
She used a hand to remove the man’s large hand from her shoulders, but she couldn’t make herself look at Fu Huai’an’s deep gaze. How could this person be so direct!
The man held her more tightly instead, forcing Lin Nuan to turn around and glare at him.
Fu Huai’an lowered his voice and said, “I want to kiss you there! Regardless of whether the legend that lovers can obtain everlasting love if they kiss under that bridge is true, I want to kiss you under that bridge!”
Lin Nuan’s heart throbbed slightly at Fu Huai’an’s words.
“I think you’re full on love, why do you still need cake and milk?”
Lu Jinnan’s slightly dissatisfied voice rang out from behind Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an.
Lin Nuan adjusted the suit jacket on her shoulders and seamlessly increased the distance between her and Fu Huai’an as she turned her head in Lu Jinnan’s direction.
A servant carrying a dining tray followed behind him. He strutted towards them with one hand in his pocket, wielding a cigarette in his other hand, behaving in a dilly-dally manner.
When he got to the front of the car, Lu Jinnan instructed the servant, “Hand it to me!”
He then bit the cigarette at the corner of his lips and received the tray from the servant before walking to Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an and raising the tray.
