Chapter 1051: The Most Lively Night Across the Past Few Years

She felt that given Lu Jinnan’s character, it was unlikely for him to lower his stance. Back then, that lady had abandoned him, so it was unlikely that he’d go up to pester her now that she was back.

However, thinking of how Lu Jinnan had shamelessly stuck around at her place… it was really hard to say this.

She clenched her teeth, put on her jacket, and walked to the door. She thought that if Lu Jinnan was still there, she’d let him in. However, she saw that there was no one outside when she looked out the peephole.

Bai Xiaonian’s heart sank. She clenched her hands, which were resting on the door, and closed her eyes. She thought to herself that this was good as well…

Everyone said that what one couldn’t get was always the best. It was probably because Lu Jinnan had never gotten Hong Jinyun that he still had a strong obstinacy toward her! After all… he had even killed someone for Hong Jinyun.

She didn’t like this feeling. The two of them just had sex last night, but Lu Jinnan’s soul was lured away when a beautiful lady appeared early this morning. No matter how Bai Xiaonian thought about it, she felt she wasn’t as beautiful as that lady.

Bai Xiaonian opened her fridge, took a tub of ice cream out of the freezer, and scooped a big mouthful of it and stuffed it into her mouth, pursing her lips. The bone-chilling cold eased her upset feelings momentarily.

Her phone, which she had tossed onto the carpet last night, rang. Bai Xiaonian walked over to pick it up. When she saw that it was her colleague, she picked it up…

“Hi, Mortensen…”

“Bai, I already settled your request for me to help you look for a place! Do you want to come over to take a look at it in the afternoon? You can’t continue to stay at your apartment anymore. It’s not too safe there!”

“You can just take a look for me! It’s fine if you think it’s suitable. I’ll transfer the deposit to you!” Bai Xiaonian said.

The reason Bai Xiaonian stayed there temporarily was that she had been left with no choice. It really wasn’t safe for a lady like her to be staying there.

“Alright, I’ll send you some photos later. You can take a look, and if you find it suitable, I’ll get it settled for you!” After saying that, Mortensen gave it some thought and added, “The place I found for you is just below my apartment. I feel that we can look out for each other. Would your husband mind?”

It was only after the news conference that Mortensen found out that Bai Xiaonian’s husband was actually Lu Jinnan. Mortensen had wooed Bai Xiaonian previously and was afraid that Lu Jinnan would mind. Therefore, he asked this.

When Bai Xiaonian heard the word “husband”, she frowned and diverted the topic. “Isn’t that good? Haven’t you wanted to eat Chinese delicacies? If I move over, I can treat you to them in the future!”

Bai Xiaonian pretended to speak in a relaxed tone.

“Alright! Then I’ll go take some photos for you!” Mortensen’s tone was lighthearted. “Oh, right, don’t forget about your interview at noon.”

After hanging up the call, Bai Xiaonian’s smile gradually disappeared. Her mind was filled with the scene she had seen earlier when she left the bedroom, where Lu Jinnan was being hugged.

She furrowed her brows tightly, scooped another big spoonful of ice cream into her mouth, swallowed it, and then took another.

Bai Xiaonian continued to eat the ice cream in big scoops. Her stomach felt a little uncomfortable after she ate half a tub of ice cream when she had just woken up with an empty stomach.

Bai Xiaonian had an interview at noon, and she knew that she’d definitely be asked about her marriage with Lu Jinnan.

What was the current status of their relationship now?

She had already signed the divorce papers previously. They would take effect as long as Lu Jinnan signed them. However, Lu Jinnan refused to sign them.

Now that Hong Jinyun was back, things would probably be different.

Bai Xiaonian stood in front of the dressing mirror, putting on her lipstick seriously. She adjusted her high-collared knitted sweater to cover up the kiss marks and smiled at her reflection. Feeling that her condition wasn’t bad, she put her lipstick into her bag.

She seemed to have made up her mind. Since Lu Jinnan was out, then there was no need to hide their relationship. It wasn’t shameful to say that they were in the midst of getting a divorce.

By now, Bai Xiaonian’s love story with Lu Jinnan in China was hot news.

People who knew that Bai Xiaonian and Lin Nuan were good friends were all saying that Lin Nuan might have been the one to help tie the knot between Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian.

After all… Lu Jinnan was Fu Huai’an’s good pal, as well as the Kaide Corporation’s president.

…

Fu Huai’an was worried about Lin Nuan and thus rushed back to China after handling the matters concerning Lu Jinnan.

Lin Nuan found out that Lu Jinnan had left with Bai Xiaonian in the end. She passed Fu Huai’an a change of clothes and said, “Xiaonian is a person whose bark is worse than her bite. With Lu Jinnan living at her place, and with the two of them liking each other, things will definitely work out well!”

It was the night before New Year’s Eve, and they were going to head to the Lin family mansion for dinner. Fu Huai’an came back at almost the very last minute, and they’d have to set off after he washed up.

Lin Nuan hadn’t expected that Fu Huai’an would rush back and was already about to head out. But now, she gave Liang Mulan a call to inform her so they wouldn’t feel anxious while waiting for her.

Lin Nuan could also tell that Liang Mulan and Lin Jingquan had the idea of taking Cen Mo as their godson. Lin Nuan believed that given how smart Cen Mo was, he could tell it as well. The fact that Cen Mo was willing to go with her to the Lin family mansion also meant that he was willing to accept this. Liang Mulan would probably bring this matter up tonight.

Lin Nuan sat on the edge of the bed, listening to the sounds of Fu Huai’an taking a shower, feeling very much at ease.

Fu Huai’an saw Lin Nuan sitting on the edge of the bed docilely when he came out. He closed the bathroom door while drying his hair, walking up to her. He bent over, propped his hands on both sides of her body, and asked in an incredibly sexy voice, “What are you thinking about?”

“You!” Lin Nuan raised her head, unable to contain her smile. Her slender arms wrapped around Fu Huai’an’s neck, drying his hair with the towel around his neck. “I missed you a lot! I missed you so much that it felt as if we were apart for many years!”

“Every passing day felt like a year?” Fu Huai’an bent down even further, making it more convenient for Lin Nuan to help him dry his hair.

“That’s right! A day apart felt like three years had passed…”

“En, then I’ll bring you along when I go to work tomorrow…” Fu Huai’an looked at Lin Nuan with his deep gaze, speaking seriously.

“Alright!” Lin Nuan nodded.

By the time Fu Huai’an changed into his clothes, Cen Mo and Song Yao were already waiting for the two of them downstairs. Seeing them coming down, Cen Mo picked up his coat, put it on, and then buttoned up. “Let’s go…”

They spent a vivacious night with the Lin family. It was probably the most lively night across the past few years.

Old Madam Lin was seized by a whim and got someone to make a heating stove. Everyone sat around the stove, eating oranges and chatting. Old Madam Lin smiled, feeling especially happy today. She shared the stories of her childhood, saying that when she was young, the family would sit around the stove and chat like this. It felt wonderful.

Lin Jingquan brought up the matter of them wanting to take Cen Mo as their godson to him. Although it was within his expectations, Cen Mo still couldn’t help but feel very warm inside.

Lin Nuan elbowed Cen Mo. “Brother… Quickly agree to it!”

“Call them Mom and Dad!” Lin Ran couldn’t help but say.

Cen Mo smiled and addressed them in order. “Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom…”
