His gaze became distant and deep, with a hint of a smile in it. But he didn’t chase after her after all. He didn’t want Lin Nuan to regard him as a pervert.
Perhaps he shouldn’t have spoken such a heavy truth the first time they met!
Li Muyang remained standing there, watching as the slim and long figure sat down by the window. The golden rays of the sun shone upon her breakfast and outlined her exquisite side profile, making it seem as if her entire being was sparkling. The visage was so beautiful that one’s gaze refused to stray away after laying eyes on her once…
Li Muyang’s bodyguard, Ah Zhan, went up to Li Muyang and asked in a lowered voice, “Boss, shall I…”
Li Muyang frowned and turned his head towards Ah Zhan with a sharp gaze.
Ah Zhan lowered his head and retreated a step, swallowing the words that nearly came out.
It was rare for Li Muyang to reveal his displeasure. “Ah Zhan, don’t make wild guesses about my intentions in the future.”
“Yes!”
…
Bai Xiaonian beamed as she looked at Lin Nuan, who had sat down next to her. She took a bite of her toast and said, “Someone tried to hit on you!”
Shaking her head, Lin Nuan replied, “He merely wanted to use the coffee machine.”
“He looks rather handsome!” Bai Xiaonian critiqued Li Muyang’s looks. “He isn’t fair compared to Lu Jinnan. It’s just that he’s too pale… his face looks drained of blood and appears sickly, so he doesn’t have the same lethal look that Lu Jinnan has.”
Lin Nuan raised her coffee mug, not managing to drink from it before Bai Xiaonian snatched it away from her. “You’re drinking black coffee this early in the morning. Are you trying to destroy your stomach? Your Lin mother spent so much effort trying to fix your gastric problems. Don’t forget the pain when the wound has healed!”
Bai Xiaonian set down the coffee mug and flashed a wicked grin at Lin Nuan. “Do you need black coffee to perk yourself up because your Fu Huai’an fooled around too vigorously?”
“What nonsense are you spewing!” Lin Nuan rolled her eyes at Bai Xiaonian.
“I’m talking nonsense? Are you truly not aware, or are you feigning ignorance…” Bai Xiaonian tapped on her phone and switched it to the front camera function. She raised it before Lin Nuan’s face so that she could take a look at herself. “Look at your face, at the way you’re flushed and glowing, not to mention those misty eyes of yours. It’s like you’ve written the words ‘I’m leading a healthy sex life’ on your forehead. Anyone looking at your face can tell how blissful your sex life is!”
Lin Nuan appeared as Bai Xiaonian had said. Her fair face was so tender that it looked like water would come out of it if one pinched her cheeks. Her light skin appeared rosy, healthy-looking, beautiful, and radiant. One look at her and it was apparent that she was a little woman madly in love.
Lin Nuan pushed Bai Xiaonian’s phone away. She picked up a small croissant and stuffed it into Bai Xiaonian’s unforgiving mouth. “Eat your food! I’ll shut your mouth with food!”
“Tsk tsk… I guessed correctly, and so your anger has turned to embarrassment!” Bai Xiaonian took a bite of the croissant, and her mouth twitched. However, in her heart, she truly felt happy for Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan had finally climbed out of the deep abyss that was Wen Moshen and got her spirits up.
…
Inside the suite.
Lu Jinnan lit a cigarette and gazed at Fu Huai’an as he said, “Things are going smoothly back home. The marriage fraud committed by Mu Guangpu’s wife and mother-in-law has been exposed. I heard that an infuriated Old Master Mu forced Mu Guangpu’s wife to get divorced and leave with nothing. That terrific mother-in-law of Mu Guangpu made a scene at the Mus’ door, and after disappearing for two days, she left Mu Guangpu’s house with her daughter honestly.”
Every wealthy family with some stature had some dirty means at their disposal!
If they didn’t usually play dirty, it was only because they felt it wasn’t worth the effort…
However, after some people got away with taking things too far for too long, they’d forget what it meant to be scared, trying time and again to test others’ limits.
Fu Huai’an was surprised that Mu Guangpu’s mother-in-law could keep her life.
Generally speaking, in such a situation, that mother-in-law of Mu Guangpu should have disappeared for good.
“Also, Chu Xun went to look for Tang Zheng and is coming over with You Nainai.” Lu Jinnan was smiling when he said this. “Chu Xun seems to be holding onto her Chu family’s Kaide Corporation shares and said she is coming personally to give them to you! This was why Tang Zheng agreed to let her come along!”
Fu Huai’an had asked You Nainai to come over to get her to protect Lin Nuan by her side.
In the world of personal bodyguards, You Nainai was considered an outstanding one, commanding a high price; even many male bodyguards were no match for her.
Lin Nuan needed such a person by her side.
At Fu Huai’an’s request, You Nainai quit her previously lucrative bodyguard job without a second word.
Previously, You Nainai’s salary was considered breathtakingly high in their line of work; after all, it was hard to find such professional and outstanding female personal bodyguards.
Personal ties aside, Fu Huai’an didn’t treat You Nainai shabbily. He said that no matter how high You Nainai’s salary was, he would fork out three times that amount; additionally, he would give her half a year’s salary in advance, and there would be holiday bonuses.
As for Chu Xun…
Fu Huai’an had made things very clear to Chu Xun when she tried to stop him from going on vacation with Lin Nuan. He told her not to do business by pushing your customers, yet she still came!
Except, Chu Xun had plotted and put in so much effort likely because of the Chus and not Fu Huai’an.
Fu Huai’an sneered. In the past, Chu Xun’s father had held onto the shares as if they were a precious golden ingot. He wondered if this golden ingot had turned into a hot potato now?
“Do you want to get Gu Qingcheng to halt that business with the Middle Easterners first?” Lu Jinnan testingly asked Fu Huai’an. “Or ask him to send some of his men and tail you, Lin Nuan, and Tuan Tuan in the dark?”
“We haven’t touched these matters all these years. Qingcheng has been the one handling them, so I’m sure he knows what to do.” Fu Huai’an’s lips turned up in a dark arc. “As for the other matter, there’s no need for it as of now…”
All these years, Gu Qingcheng was the one in charge of handling the dirty work; Fu Huai’an basically wouldn’t reveal his face in those deals.
But all the way from the Middle East to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, everyone in this line of work had heard Gu Qingcheng’s name, as well as the fact that he had a mysterious boss backing him.
As for the identity of this boss, no one had a clue…
The only person Fu Huai’an worked with personally was Mr. Du, and that was back in the days when Fu Huai’an personally negotiated his business deals; from then onwards, he had handed everything over to Gu Qingcheng.
This time around, Mr. Du had revealed some things in front of Naseer in order to ensure Fu Huai’an’s safety. Add to that the fact that Gu Qingcheng had to mediate to save Qin Zhe in this incident, and some quick-thinking subordinates around Naseer naturally made some clever guesses. If news got out, it wouldn’t be weird if there were now people following Fu Huai’an.
But at least Fu Huai’an could be sure that, for the time being, others wouldn’t do anything to him and his traveling gang.
“Else, let Tuan Tuan and Lin Nuan return home first?” Lu Jinnan asked testingly.
Fu Huai’an narrowed his eyes and retrieved a cigarette to bite at the corner of his lips. He toyed with the gold lighter in his hands and didn’t light up his cigarette…
After a long while, Fu Huai’an lowered his gaze to light the cigarette. With the dancing flame, he lit his cigarette and exhaled a puff of white smoke.
