Chapter 624: Lin Nuan Was Even More Afraid!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Lin Nuan that went to Iraq wasn’t afraid of death! But the present Lin Nuan was afraid…
Especially after going through this incident, Lin Nuan was even more afraid!
Because Fu Huai’an made her heart come to life, let her experience the wonderful aspects of this world, experience what it felt like to miss someone, experience…
“I have you and Tuan Tuan! And friends! And that birth mother that will never love me, as well as those relatives from the Lin family whom I will never be in touch with again in the future!”
Fu Huai’an didn’t say anything. He closed his eyes and held Lin Nuan tight, cocking his head to kiss deeply upon her long hair.
Lin Nuan lowered her gaze, her throat bobbing slightly, a little choked. “I don’t want to die, I want to stay alive! I want to listen to you speak those shameless words of romance in my ears. I want to make love with you and give birth to a child that belongs to the two of us. I want to accompany Tuan Tuan and our child as they grow up. And I want to grow old with you until our hair turns white!”
“En, I know! All of that will come true!” Fu Huai’an spoke softly in Lin Nuan’s ear.
Lin Nuan made up her mind, finally saying, “If I say that I hope you’ll stop doing all of this and lead a peaceful life with us, are you willing?”
“I’ve already handed this part of the business to Qingcheng…” Fu Huai’an pondered a moment before asking Lin Nuan, “How is this different from not being a part of it at all to you?”
Lin Nuan lowered her gaze, her eyes reddened. She gently pinched Fu Huai’an’s long fingers.
Lin Nuan couldn’t describe what the difference was…
She only felt that Fu Huai’an was in a dangerous position.
“Could Gu Qingcheng not do this too?” Lin Nuan asked.
“Xiao Nuan, I don’t wish to deceive you. Once you’re in this business, it’s very hard to extract yourself from it! Qingcheng being around is why we can be safe.” Fu Huai’an held Lin Nuan tight. “Have my words… made you more afraid?”
Not hiding her feelings from Fu Huai’an, Lin Nuan nodded.
After calming down, it wasn’t that Lin Nuan couldn’t understand; once Fu Huai’an and gang lost all their influence, they would be at the mercy of others.
Feeling cold, Lin Nuan squirmed forcefully into Fu Huai’an, resting her head on Fu Huai’an’s firm arm. Her eyelashes fluttered lightly, her swollen eyes blurred by mist.
After a long while, she said, “Let’s go back home! Let’s never leave the country again, shall we?”
Lin Nuan only felt safe in her home country!
Once they were back, their lives would likely go back to normal…
Fu Huai’an had the same intention.
He didn’t tell Lin Nuan that it was possible that his identity would be exposed. Fu Huai’an didn’t intend to let Lin Nuan know about what happened in Venice after she was taken away by Li Muyang.
That way, once they were back home, Lin Nuan wouldn’t be as afraid and fearful as she was now…
Even if it was just to put up a show that everything was fine, Fu Huai’an would provide Lin Nuan with a safe and stable environment.
“Okay!” Fu Huai’an lowered his head, his cold and tough side pressed against the top of Lin Nuan’s head.
“Shall we leave right now?”
Lin Nuan didn’t want to stay an extra second overseas!
“Okay!”
Fu Huai’an agreed to everything Lin Nuan said, so long as her heart could be put at ease.
Little Lu bought thick clothing that fit the season for Lin Nuan. After she changed clothes, Fu Huai’an held her little hand, and they set off for the airport.
Gu Qingcheng and Fu Huai’an spoke on the phone. Since Gu Qingcheng was already in America, there was no reason for him not to meet up with Fu Huai’an, whom he frequently met up with back in China.
So, when Fu Huai’an walked hand-in-hand downstairs with Lin Nuan, Gu Qingcheng was already waiting for the two of them by the sedan, planning to send them to the airport.
Naturally, Little Lu was the one driving. Gu Qingcheng sat in the passenger seat, while Fu Huai’an sat with Lin Nuan in the backseat, an arm around her.
“Team A captured Mu Dan alive. He already said that he thought you were the person backing me, so he wanted to abduct Lin Nuan to test it out, and his greater motive was to bargain with me in business. I have implicated you guys this time! Sorry!”
Gu Qingcheng didn’t know that Fu Huai’an had come clean with Lin Nuan. He was trying to tell Fu Huai’an that Mu Dan was already captured, and he was also trying to cover for Fu Huai’an. In order to not scare Lin Nuan, he took all responsibility.
But what he said about Mu Dan’s capture and the latter abducting Lin Nuan to test them was indeed true. He wanted to make use of Fu Huai’an’s identity as Mr. Moral to bargain with Gu Qingcheng!
But Mu Dan hadn’t foreseen that after his men failed the task, he would be implicated…
Furthermore, he certainly didn’t anticipate that Gu Qingcheng’s men would be so capable as to capture him alive.
“Qingcheng, Xiao Nuan already knows everything,” Fu Huai’an said, his voice faint.
Gu Qingcheng saw Lin Nuan’s pale complexion through the rearview mirror and pursed his lips.Visit on our NovelFull
“It’s my negligence this time!” Gu Qingcheng said, “There won’t be a next time!”
“I was the one who insisted on saving Qin Zhe, so this has nothing to do with you!”
Gu Qingcheng looked ahead. “When saving Qin Zhe, if it weren’t for me, who couldn’t bear for Team B to suffer injuries or casualties and insisted on negotiating, you guys wouldn’t have been placed in danger.”
“It’s the same! After coming in contact with Qin Zhe in Dubai, I was the one who insisted on sending Qin Zhe away. Even if Team B was sent to rescue him, similarly, they would end up suspecting me! It was unavoidable…”
Through this conversation between Gu Qingcheng and Fu Huai’an, Lin Nuan could tell that they were being targeted because Fu Huai’an saved Qin Zhe.
Looking at the scenery in reverse outside the windows, Lin Nuan laughed bitterly in her heart. Why did she insist on choosing Dubai back then…
Perhaps she shouldn’t be thinking this way. Lin Nuan understood Fu Huai’an’s desire to save Qin Zhe!
Putting herself in his shoes, if it were Bai Xiaonian… Lin Nuan would also give up her life to save her.
But Lin Nuan couldn’t help thinking that it would have been better if they had gone to Venice and then to Dubai. So long as they managed to avoid Qin Zhe, all of the subsequent events wouldn’t have occurred!
The feverish Lin Nuan returned to her home country via plane. You Nainai came to fetch her and sent Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan to the hospital directly.
Once they landed in their country, Lin Nuan’s high strung nerves soothed completely, and her fever hit 104°F in an instant.
Despite that, Lin Nuan felt more stability in her heart.
She stepped on the soil of her motherland and breathed in the air. This was the smell of safety.
Leaning against the hospital bed and watching the intravenous fluids drip down, a faint smile finally appeared in Lin Nuan’s eyes.
“I’m finally back…” Lin Nuan sighed, her brows unfurrowed.
Each of those days lived in trepidation overseas seemed like a year to Lin Nuan.
Little Lu went to buy Lin Nuan bird’s nest porridge, while You Nainai sat on the sofa frowning. This time… Lin Nuan had gone missing in the hands of You Nainai, so she felt guilty.
Little Lu came in with the bird’s nest porridge and some light snacks. Lin Nuan’s appetite had recovered, and she wanted to prop herself up and straighten her body, but Fu Huai’an beat her to it and helped support her, cushioning her back with a pillow.
Lin Nuan smiled lightly at Fu Huai’an. “I’m a little hungry.”
After setting her coffee and sandwich on the coffee table, Little Lu smiled at You Nainai. “Eat something too!”
After getting along with You Nainai in Venice for those few days, Little Lu was clear about You Nainai’s taste, so he bought her some food on the way.
