Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Tang Zheng saw You Nainai frowning and looking upset, so he tried to hold You Nainai’s hand testingly before letting go. “Just be more attentive when you protect Sis-in-law in the future. Thank god Lu Jinnan was there today! But… I feel that Sis-in-law is pretty formidable already. Even if Lu Jinnan wasn’t around, Lu Qili probably wouldn’t have been able to hurt Sis-in-law!”

Hearing Little Candy chitter-chattering about bragging about this at the kindergarten, You Nainai’s highly-strung nerves eased.

Yun Liuli had sent Gu Qingcheng a message to tell him that everything was fine. She told him not to call as it would make everyone more nervous and also not to pick her up now! She said that she would be good and return to the Fu residence with Lin Nuan. With Lin Nuan around, Gu Qingcheng’s mind was at ease. She reminded Gu Qingcheng to pick her up at night.

When Gu Qingcheng saw Yun Liuli’s messages, he wasn’t so worried, as he knew about Yun Liuli’s skills. Even with one arm injured, Gu Qingcheng believed that Lu Qili wouldn’t be able to hurt Yun Liuli.

On the contrary, the atmosphere was heavy in Fu Huai’an’s car.

Lin Nuan asked Fu Huai’an not to overthink things. It wasn’t that Fu Huai’an wished to overthink, but… the instant Fu Huai’an retracted the team protecting Lin Nuan, this happened. He was settling Gu Qingcheng’s affairs, so this… made Fu Huai’an feel uneasy.

Settling Gu Qingcheng’s matter was significant! It wasn’t without its risks.

Fu Huai’an had never feared danger, but he feared danger would befall Lin Nuan, Tuan Tuan, and Yuan Yuan.

Fu Huai’an gripped Lin Nuan’s hand tightly and didn’t say a single word as he drove them back home.

Gu Qingcheng knew that Yun Liuli was taken to the Fu residence by Fu Huai’an, so he went there too, even arriving earlier than Fu Huai’an and the rest.

Before Yun Liuli got out of the car, she saw Gu Qingcheng standing at the entrance with both hands in his pockets. With both hands pressed against the car window, her lips curled into a smile. Once the car stopped, she pulled open the car door and ran into Gu Qingcheng’s arms.

Gu Qingcheng was mindful that Yun Liuli’s arm was injured, so he retreated two steps and gripped Yun Liuli’s shoulders to avoid bumping against her injured arm. “Slower!”

“Are you here to pick me up?” Yun Liuli looked up at Gu Qingcheng. “I’m not injured. Lu Jinnan got hurt, but… I think this misfortune might have come to him as a blessing in disguise. Sister Xiao Bai’s heart might ache for Lu Jinnan, and she might end up patching things up with him!”

Lin Nuan got out of the car with Yuan Yuan in her arms and heard Fu Huai’an say to Tuan Tuan, “Tuan Tuan, be good and keep Mama and Sister company. Papa has something to discuss with Uncle Tang and Uncle Gu. I’ll hand Mama and Sister to you, okay?”

Tuan Tuan nodded solemnly. “I’ll protect Mama… and Sister!”

Fu Huai’an stroked Tuan Tuan’s head and said to Lin Nuan, “I’ll discuss some matters with them. Let’s talk tonight…”

“Is this about Lu Qili’s matter?” Lin Nuan frowned. “Lu Qili already killed someone, just let the law…”

Fu Huai’an smiled at Lin Nuan and interrupted her words. “It’s about Gu Qingcheng’s matter!”

Upon hearing Fu Huai’an mention this, Lin Nuan knew what Fu Huai’an was referring to. They had at least this much chemistry after being a married couple for so long!

Lin Nuan knew that Fu Huai’an had perhaps… pulled Gu Qingcheng out from that quagmire!

Lin Nuan nodded. “I got it! You guys can take your time. I’ll get the kitchen to prepare lunch. If you’re not down by then, I’ll get them to bring the food up to you!”

Fu Huai’an gripped Lin Nuan’s petite hand. “Thanks for the hard work!”

“No!” said Lin Nuan as she shook her head.

Be it Fu Huai’an, Gu Qingcheng… Lu Jinnan, or Tang Zheng, they were all loyal and sentimental men!

Back when Fu Huai’an was severely injured, Gu Qingcheng stood forth to take his place. Be it Fu Huai’an, Lu Jinnan, or Tang Zheng, they all felt guilty towards Gu Qingcheng. Their greatest wish was to drag Gu Qingcheng out of that quagmire!

Especially Fu Huaian!

Lin Nuan knew that Fu Huai’an was willing to pay any price to pull Gu Qingcheng out of that quagmire and let him lead an ordinary life.

Yuan Yuan had fallen asleep in her arms. Fu Huai’an bent over and planted a kiss on Yuan Yuan’s little face before going upstairs with Gu Qingcheng and Tang Zheng.

Gazing at Gu Qingcheng’s back view, Yun Liuli unwrapped a lollipop and stuck it into her mouth, then walked to Lin Nuan and asked, “Sister Xiao Nuan, is it… is Fu Huai’an wanting to help Gu Qingcheng retire from that position?”

Lin Nuan was surprised at Yun Liuli’s intelligence.

Seeing the surprised look in Lin Nuan’s eyes, Yun Liuli took out the lollipop and said, “In the past, there was no woman by Gu Qingcheng’s side, so there weren’t concerns of him getting married and having children. Fu Huai’an and the rest have wanted to let Gu Qingcheng lead an ordinary life, much less now that Gu Qingcheng has me!”

Yun Liuli had a clearer understanding of the matters between Gu Qingcheng, Fu Huai’an, and the group of them than Lin Nuan!

Because, in the past, Gu Qingcheng had never hidden what business he was doing from Yun Liuli. She had been by Gu Qingcheng’s side for so many years, so even if Gu Qingcheng had the intention to hide it from her, Yun Liuli had seen much of the business dealings they were involved in!

Yun Liuli had seen an injured Gu Qingcheng when someone came after his life.

Even Yun Liuli herself… had been abducted countless times because of her identity as Gu Qingcheng’s “adopted daughter”!

If Gu Qingcheng hadn’t taught Yun Liuli some self-defense tactics and sent his men to protect her, Yun Liuli might be dead by now.

“But Sister Xiao Nuan, this matter isn’t so easily resolved…” Yun Liuli spoke calmly as she licked her lollipop. “I know that Gu Qingcheng told me he wouldn’t have any kids with me because… he feared implicating his descendants! But… after all these years, many people will remember the name and face of Gu Qingcheng. Be it out of jealousy or revenge, if he’s really no longer in that position, that will be the start of the horror!”

Although Yun Liuli was a young lady, she had a clear mind. Especially since she was by Gu Qingcheng’s side all these years, she had seen many examples of how boss-level figures who wished to lead ordinary lives ended up. Honestly speaking, Yun Liuli didn’t have high hopes that Gu Qingcheng could get out of this quagmire.

If it were up to Yun Liuli, she would rather Gu Qingcheng remain in that position. She would rather he be so powerful others dared not have designs on him, only picking a successor when he was about to die of old age!

By then, even if there’d be danger…

At the thought of this, Yun Liuli halted in her act of licking the lollipop, as if something suddenly came to her!

She had a feeling that Gu Qingcheng would surely consent to retiring from that position!

Because, once Gu Qingcheng decided to be with Yun Liuli, he would act in consideration of her.

If it were really as Yun Liuli imagined, if Gu Qingcheng were to remain in that position and only select a successor when he reached the end of his life, by then, even if he would be in danger… it wouldn’t matter, for Gu Qingcheng would be near the end of his life anyway!

But Yun Liuli was younger!

Previously, Gu Qingcheng was unwilling to be with Yun Liuli because he feared putting her in danger!

Yun Liuli suddenly felt that the lollipop in her mouth tasted bland!
