Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Panda Novel

Lin Nuan looked up at the large TV screen and heard a reporter ask Lu Jinnan whether he and Fu Huai’an had personally gone to Jincheng to meet the president of the Jiahe Corporation, Tang Xi, to reject his invitation to join the management of the Jiahe Corporation.

At this question, the well-dressed Lu Jinnan smiled. With one hand in his pocket, his vision swept over the script on the podium, and after the reporter finished her question, he looked up and answered, “Although the Jiahe Corporation and the Kaide Corporation are competitors, in private, Mr. Fu and President Tang have close ties. According to seniority, President Tang should be addressing Mr. Fu as Uncle!”

Lu Jinnan was playing shameless before the media towards Tang Xi.

However, Lu Jinnan wasn’t exactly wrong. Tang Xi was married to Ji Zibai’s niece, so according to logic, he should be addressing Ji Zibai as Uncle. And since Ji Zibai and Fu Huai’an had deep ties, should Tang Xi not address Fu Huai’an as Uncle too?

Some reporters who knew about this link between them were tickled and chuckled out loud…

The Q&A section was limited. With Fu Huai’an entering the Kaide Corporation as the largest shareholder, the next step would be to appoint new senior executives at the management level and to remove Lu Qingmei and Fu Qingquan’s people from the company.

With 53.4% shares, Fu Huai’an had absolute power in the Kaide Corporation. There was no way Fu Qingquan could stop him.

Watching the humorous and mature Lu Jinnan on TV and knowing that Fu Huai’an had already obtained the Kaide Corporation, Lin Nuan ought to be happy, but somehow, she didn’t feel that way. She was, instead, worried about Fu Huai’an and Fu Tianci.

“Where’s Fu Tianci? Has he been rescued?” Lin Nuan turned towards Mu Taotao.

Mu Taotao and the puppy-like guy stood next to the sofa, their postures straight. They clearly looked like they had been trained.

Gu Qingcheng frowned as he stood before the fireplace. The dancing flames in the fireplace illuminated his cold and tough facial features, making his face appear bright one moment and dark the next.

Before Mu Taotao could reply, she saw Gu Qingcheng nod. “Don’t worry. He should be back any time now.”

Originally, he should have been the one handling the matter, but Fu Huai’an said that since they were in Haicheng, it was more appropriate for them to handle something like this.

Gu Qingcheng knew that Fu Huai’an was worried about his injuries.

Back then, Gu Qingcheng chose to stand out and shield Fu Huai’an and the other guys behind him. He thought he could let Fu Huai’an and the others continue leading their peaceful lives After shielding them for so many years. He had thought he could secure this little peaceful haven in Haicheng and let them lead normal lives away from all the bloodshed.

But today, with all the dark events coming one after another, Gu Qingcheng felt helpless for the first time.

He still wasn’t strong and powerful enough!

If he was powerful enough to make those people act in fear and consideration of the name Gu Qingcheng, then Yun Liuli… wouldn’t have been kidnapped, and no one would have dared act this way in Haicheng.

On the television, the press conference bustled with life.

What outsiders saw was Fu Huai’an first marrying a pretty wife and taking the first steps to set up a family, then aggressively joining the Kaide Corporation’s board of directors, rushing like a raging fire…

But what Gu Qingcheng saw was the danger that lurked around Fu Huai’an under the wonderful facade.

Fu Huai’an had once said to Gu Qingcheng that he wanted to give Lin Nuan a safe and secure life, even if it were only a facade.

But now, he didn’t even manage to hold up that lie…

Seeing the many people Fu Huai’an arranged around her, how could the intelligent Lin Nuan not be able to sniff the smell of danger?

“I want to talk to Fu Tianci on the phone…”

Lin Nuan was worried that Gu Qingcheng was merely placating her, so she made that request after some thought.

Gu Qingcheng nodded and dialed Little Lu’s number, telling him that Lin Nuan wished to speak with Fu Tianci.

Within five minutes, a call came in…

Gu Qingcheng handed the phone to Lin Nuan.

“Thank you…”

Lin Nuan held the hot and fragrant mug of cocoa in one hand while using the other to place the phone to her ear.

On the other end of the phone, it was so quiet that one could only hear the sound of breathing. Lin Nuan spoke in a soft voice. “Fu Tianci…”

Hearing Lin Nuan’s voice, Fu Tianci’s eyes turned red. He recalled what Little Lu said… about Lin Nuan shielding him only because he was a guest invited onto her show. Fu Tianci’s nose started to sting, and he lowered his gaze and softly answered, “Mm!” He was unable to conceal his depressed feelings.

“Already on the way home?” Lin Nuan asked.

“Mm…” Fu Tianci still answered with a one-word reply.

“Sorry to have implicated you today!”

Fu Tianci didn’t reply immediately. He turned his head to look at the snowy scenery of Haicheng, and only after a short while did he call out Lin Nuan’s name, speaking while trying not to sound so choked up. “Lin Nuan. Today, did you… in the dressing room today, did you point the gun at yourself simply because… I was a guest invited onto your show? I want to hear the truth from you…”

The youth’s sensitive and fragile heart was at work here. Fu Tianci wiped his tears with his sleeve, restraining himself so that Lin Nuan couldn’t tell that he was trembling and crying.

The driver up front glanced at Fu Tianci in the rearview mirror. Seeing his stubborn yet aggrieved manner, he reminded him of himself when he was young. He smiled and shook his head, focusing on driving.

Hearing the awkwardness in the youth’s voice, Lin Nuan gripped her phone tightly and said, “I’m a timid person who’s afraid of death. If it were another person who was held hostage today, I probably would have begged Nainai and Taotao to help me get away from that place. But Fu Tianci… you’re not only a guest I invited on my show, you’re also my family. Even though I was so scared that I was trembling all over and only wanted to escape, I couldn’t abandon my family…”

The youth, who was pretending not to care and looking out the window, straightened his back because of the word “family”. His eyes and nose felt a strong stinging sensation, and before he could blink, tears slipped down his face.

The youth frantically hung up the phone, holding it tightly in his hands. After a long while, he laughed, looking worse while laughing than he did crying…

With his eyes misted up, the overwhelming emotions in his heart ferociously knocked against it, as if they were looking for an outlet to pour out. He said to the driver in front, “She said that I’m family…”

After a light laugh, the youth couldn’t hold his emotions back anymore, using his arms to hide his eyes and making muffled crying sounds, like a child who had found his candy after he thought he had lost it…

He had been so fond of Fu Huai’an, treating him like his own older brother. He had always thought that Fu Huai’an cleaned up the messes he created because they were biologically-related… because Fu Huai’an was somewhat fond of him too!

Fu Tianci didn’t fear death, but he feared that what Little Lu said was true, that Fu Huai’an didn’t even deign to send someone to kill him, that Lin Nuan merely treated him as a guest invited onto her show.

Lin Nuan said… he was family! Not a guest invited onto her show but family!

The driver picked up some tissues and quietly placed them on the storage box between the driver’s seat and the front passenger seat.

But the youth had his arms lifted in front of his eyes and didn’t see the tissues. He was wiping his tears and snot on the sleeves of his school uniform.

…

Lin Nuan heard the sound of the call disconnecting, then removed the phone from her ear and handed it back to Gu Qingcheng.
