Chapter 593: But This Woman Was Already Someone Else’s Wife
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Even for Old Madam Fu’s birthday banquet, Fu Cheng only sent her a rather expensive present, not even giving Old Madam Fu a phone call.
Other people might think it was cold of Fu Cheng to behave this way, but Fu Cheng had no choice but to do this in order to avoid arousing suspicion.
Old Madam Fu looked at Fu Huai’an in surprise…
Ever since finding out she had this biological maternal grandson Fu Huai’an, Old Madam Fu had never once thought of handing the Kaide Corporation over to that adopted son Fu Cheng. After all, they weren’t related by blood.
“All those years, the Kaide Corporation did quite well in Fu Cheng’s hands. If something hadn’t happened to him, the position of Kaide Corporation’s President should still be Fu Cheng’s.”
Chu Xun looked at Fu Huai’an, her hand still holding onto Old Madam Fu’s extended palm. She wasn’t sure why Fu Huai’an suddenly brought up Fu Cheng.
If Fu Cheng were to come up, despite being an adopted son, he also had inheritance rights, so it was unavoidable that he would be taking a share of the Kaide Corporation.
Lin Nuan knew of Fu Cheng. Back in those days in Haicheng, Fu Cheng was considered someone to be reckoned with!
Lin Jingquan used to be full of praise for him. However, Fu Cheng went into a coma after his car accident. If not for that and Fu Huai’an’s ruthless methods when he took over the position, which helped him to produce results far more outstanding than Fu Cheng in a much shorter period of time, perhaps Fu Cheng would still have been able to fight for the position of president when he woke up.
“Fu Cheng is, after all, an outsider!” Old Madam Fu’s voice raised in pitch.
“My surname is, after all, not Fu either.” The corners of Fu Huai’an’s lips turned up, his magnetic and rich voice sounding cold.
This one sentence was enough to make Old Madam Fu feel like she was struck by lightning.
Once upon a time, Fu Qingquan had said these same words to Old Madam Fu, and also to Fu Huai’an…
Yes, Fu Huai’an’s surname wasn’t Fu, it was Jiang!
He was half-brothers with Jiang Ming’an, sharing a father with him!
The ward turned deathly quiet, so quiet that one could hear the sound of a pin drop.
Chu Xun’s heart was beating rapidly. She understood it now… perhaps Fu Huai’an had made up his mind to abandon the Kaide Corporation.
“Rest well. I’ll get Little Lu to send you back home tomorrow,” Fu Huai’an said.
Old Madam Fu’s hands clenched again.
Chu Xun hurriedly called for a nurse as Lin Nuan watched the frantic scene in the ward, not sure what to feel.
She fixed her gaze on Old Madam Fu. Hearing the way she spoke of her adopted son, Fu Cheng, she couldn’t help but feel that Old Madam Fu was overly cold.
It was true that Fu Cheng had no blood ties to the Fus, but they had known this when they adopted him. However, after they found out they had a blood-related grandson, Fu Huai’an, they abandoned Fu Cheng without hesitation.
Lin Nuan stared at Old Madam Fu, who was crying with reddened eyes, feeling that Old Madam Fu and Old Master Fu were birds of the same feather—equally heartless by nature!
Old Master Fu abandoned Fu Cheng after finding out about Fu Huai’an, then subsequently abandoned Fu Huai’an without hesitation after finding out about Fu Tianci, wanting the latter to inherit the Kaide Corporation.
After leaving the hospital, Lin Nuan tightly gripped Fu Huai’an’s hand and asked him, “Have you really decided to give up on the Kaide Corporation?”
“If it’s mine, there’s no way I will give something up to someone else!” Fu Huai’an smiled at Lin Nuan, squeezing her petite hand. “Such as my wife!”
Fu Huai’an didn’t plan to hide anything from his little bride.
Hearing Fu Huai’an say this, Lin Nuan smiled and nodded, very thoughtfully not pressing him for more details.
Firstly, Lin Nuan didn’t know much about matters at the company.
Secondly, if Fu Huai’an wanted to talk about it, she was willing to lend a listening ear. If Fu Huai’an felt that there was no need to elaborate, why should Lin Nuan press him?
Lin Nuan merely replied, “Me too, no one’s snatching anything of mine away, such as my husband!”
Fu Huai’an put his large hand around Lin Nuan’s shoulder, unable to hide the smile on his lips. “Let’s go!”
Lin Nuan originally thought that Old Madam Fu wouldn’t return to the country unless Fu Huai’an did so himself. Who knew that Old Madam Fu would cooperatively go back under the accompaniment of Little Lu the next day.
This surprised Lin Nuan.
She heard that Chu Xun’s little princess of a cousin, Chu Jiaoyang, followed Old Madam Fu back to the country.
After Little Lu came back, he told Fu Huai’an about Old Madam Fu. He said he wasn’t sure why but that Old Madam Fu suddenly thought of Fu Cheng, giving him a call before getting on the plane. She told Fu Cheng about her health condition, and she also said that she missed her little grandchildren and Fu Cheng, asking the family of four to return home.
Lin Nuan guessed that upon seeing that Fu Huai’an truly intended to give up on the Kaide Corporation, Old Madam Fu then thought of her adopted son, wanting him to come back and help her snatch back the Kaide Corporation.
Lin Nuan didn’t know of Fu Huai’an’s plans for the Kaide Corporation, but she knew that he wouldn’t really give up on it.
The moment Little Lu left, the doorbell rang. Seeing that Little Lu’s phone was left on the coffee table, she thought that Little Lu had come back to retrieve his phone, so she casually picked up the phone and went to open the door. “It might be Little Lu coming back to retrieve his phone.”
The door opened, and a tall and burly man wearing a casual outfit stood outside. Lin Nuan could tell that this well-built and muscular man was probably a bodyguard or something of the sort.
“Who are you looking for?” Lin Nuan asked.
“How do you do, Mrs. Fu!” After greeting her, the man respectfully handed her a letter. “This is an invitation from my master. He hopes that you and Mr. Fu will agree to have a meal together with him tonight.”
To send an invitation to ask someone to a meal was typical of aristocrats.
The other party was polite and respectful, so Lin Nuan would feel bad if she didn’t take the invitation from his hands. But before checking with him, she wouldn’t carelessly agree to it.
“I’m sorry, but who is your master?” Lin Nuan asked.
The man continued holding up the invitation. “My master said that Mr. Fu would know after taking a look at this!”
Lin Nuan turned her head to look at Fu Huai’an, who had started walking in her direction.
He took the invitation, and upon opening the letter, Fu Huai’an could smell the faint scent of roses. This was a technique to please the ladies.
He didn’t appear displeased, and the corners of his lips even arched up slightly at the sight of Li Muyang’s name. He then closed the invitation. Fu Huai’an gazed at Li Muyang’s bodyguard, Ah Zhan, with those deep eyes of his, then spoke in a leisurely tone, “Tell Mr. Li that I’ll be there on time…”
Lin Nuan also caught Li Muyang’s name. She recalled that pale and sickly man she ran into at the restaurant that morning, who claimed his name was Li Muyang.
Ah Zhan gave a slight bow to Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an, then took his leave.
Ah Zhan heard the sound of the door close. When he turned around to see the two shut wooden doors, he couldn’t help feeling that it was a pity on behalf of Li Muyang…
All these years, ever since Li Muyang’s lover passed away, his eyes had been empty. It wasn’t easy for Li Muyang to finally meet a woman who brought some life back into those lifeless eyes of his, but this woman was already someone else’s wife.
These few days, Li Muyang asked his people to gather all news and programs that Lin Nuan was on, viewing them countless times!
Actually, Ah Zhan wanted very much to help him abduct Lin Nuan to the bed, but Li Muyang forbade him from doing so, so Ah Zhan could only forget about the idea.
Ah Zhan sighed, then walked towards the elevators.
