The little one's ears turned red in an instant. He rubbed his little head against Lin Nuan's chest, then closed his eyes in satisfaction and went to sleep peacefully. He secretly made up his mind to protect Mama and the little baby in her tummy.
The next day, Fu Huai 'an's meeting in Jincheng also went very smoothly. It was a project that the military had been looking forward to, and now that it was progressing faster than expected, the military was overjoyed.
After the meeting, Fu Huai 'an told Mr. Ran Chaoqian to prepare to meet his family.
Ran Chaoqian had even forgotten about his family for the past few days. Now that the meeting was over, he heaved a sigh of relief. When Fu Huai 'an mentioned meeting his family, he immediately tensed up.
All this while, Ran Chaoqian had been focused on his research. He hadn't combed his hair or shaved his beard, so his image looked terrible.
Fu Huai 'an understood why Ran Chaoqian was nervous. He got Little Lu to take Ran Chaoqian to get styled and changed, then personally sent Ran Chaoqian to the house in Jincheng where his wife and daughter were staying.
Fu Huai 'an was also a man with a wife and child. When he saw the scene of Ran Chaoqian hugging and crying with his family, he couldn't help but think of Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan.
After Ran Chaoqian comforted his wife and daughter, he turned to see Fu Huai 'an standing tall and straight beside the car in a woolen coat. The warm street lights seemed to add a layer of gentle golden glow to Fu Huai' an's imposing aura.
This was the Splendid Tang Dynasty, the safest villa district in Jincheng. The property management had already hung up red lanterns in the district, illuminating the entire district in a bright red glow, giving it a festive atmosphere.
There were children who hadn't slept yet. They stood on the steps inside the fence with firecrackers, and with the help of their parents, they fired the firecrackers. Although the smell of gunpowder couldn't be smelled in the air, one could already feel the festive atmosphere.
Ran Chaoqian asked his wife and daughter to return to their room, then walked down the steps to Fu Huai 'an and bowed deeply to him …
"Mr. Ran …" Fu Huai 'an reached out to help Ran Chaoqian up. "You don't have to be so polite."
Their eyes met. Ran Chaoqian looked at the mature and steady man in front of him and thanked him sincerely, "Thank you, Mr. Fu. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to realize my dream of returning home. If it weren't for you … I wouldn't have been able to serve my country with passion!"
Fu Huai 'an reached out and patted Ran Chaoqian's arm. He didn't say anything, merely saying, "Go back. From now on, this is your home. The military has already sent people to protect your family. I won't get rid of the people who were sent to protect you in the past, so you can rest assured!"
"Mm, I'm not worried!" Ran Chaoqian nodded.
"Little Lu!" Fu Huai 'an called out.
Little Lu immediately understood. He jogged to the trunk, opened it, and took out a gift for Ran Chaoqian's family. He then respectfully handed it to Ran Chaoqian.
"It's almost Chinese New Year. This is a Chinese New Year gift from me to your family. Happy Chinese New Year!" Fu Huai 'an said.
"Pa —"
There was another crack of a cannon, followed by a child's bell-like laughter.
Ran Chaoqian didn't reject it. He took the gift and nodded at Fu Huai 'an with a smile. "Chairman Fu, happy Chinese New Year!"
After getting into the car and driving out of the Splendid Tang Dynasty Estate, Little Lu asked Fu Huai 'an, "Sir, do you want to go back to the hotel first or have some supper?"
Fu Huai 'an gazed at the lit red lanterns by the roadside. A public service advertisement with Lin Nuan's photo flashed past the car window. He turned around and smiled at Little Lu. "Let's go back to the hotel and get our luggage. We're going back to Haicheng!"
Fu Huai 'an missed Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan, especially on such a festive day.
Little Lu had been with Fu Huai 'an for many years. He knew that Fu Huai' an must be missing Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan, even though he was exhausted after a whole day of meetings. Fu Huai 'an still wanted to return to Jincheng at midnight, so he smiled and asked, "Sir, you're missing Madam?"
"Mm!" Fu Huai 'an responded, which was rare.
Little Lu smiled and responded. On the way back to the hotel, he called a colleague from Fu Huai 'an's secretarial office and asked them to pack Fu Huai' an's luggage and send it downstairs. Therefore, they arrived at the airport without much delay.
By the time Fu Huai 'an got home, Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan had already fallen asleep.
Fu Huai 'an placed his luggage in the guest room and pushed open the door to the master bedroom … Using the dim light in the corridor to look at the mother and son duo who were sound asleep in each other's arms, his heart softening.
He stood at the door for a long time, but in the end, he didn't want to disturb the mother and son's rest, so he closed the door and went to the guest room to rest.
Even though Fu Huai 'an had known that this would be the outcome before he came back, he still gladly rushed back.
Perhaps it was because the festive atmosphere was getting stronger, and he couldn't wait to miss his family.
Or perhaps it was because Lin Nuan was pregnant, and Fu Huai 'an was worried …
No matter what, being able to be with Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan at this moment made Fu Huai 'an feel very at ease.
At the Fu residence in Haicheng's Nanshan, the servants had hung up red lanterns that morning, and there was a festive atmosphere.
Because it was too late to return to Haicheng, Little Lu also stayed the night at the Fu residence.
Fu Huai 'an took a shower in the guest room, and when he came out, the servants had already made the bed for him …
Fu Huai 'an, who rarely slept, felt sleepy. He was just about to fall asleep when he received a call from Chu Xun.
On the other end of the line, Chu Xun was crying and begging Fu Huai 'an to save her father, to save the Chu Group.
"Huai 'an, it's Chu Xun. I know it's wrong of my father to snatch the Kaide Corporation's business behind your back, but he already knows his wrongs. He really knows his wrongs. Please save my family this once, okay? I'm begging you … you know I rarely beg you! Especially when it comes to our family, I'm begging you … this is the first time! "
Chu Xun was crying so hard that she couldn't catch her breath.
All along, Chu Xun had put herself on a high pedestal and never begged others for help. The image she gave others was that of a strong and capable woman.
This time … Chu Xun had indeed come to beg Fu Huai 'an because she had no other choice.
When Chu Xun was overseas, she broke down when she saw the news about the Chu family on the internet. She could be considered a dead person now, and even her new identity was thanks to the Chu family. If she were to lose her father's protection and lose the Chu family behind her, Chu Xun didn't even dare to imagine what her future would be like.
Fu Huai 'an wasn't too moved by Chu Xun's cries. Before he could speak, he heard Chu Xun say anxiously, "My father has been taken away by the tax department. I know you have connections and connections! Back then, you were the one who thought of how Lin Nuan's father was arrested. I know that. Can you save my father too? I know this request is too much, but I'm begging you, Huai 'an. On account of the fact that we used to be friends, I'm begging you! "
"I don't know where you heard that I was the one who saved Lin Nuan's father back then. I'm just a businessman and don't have that much power to influence the government. Miss Chu, you think too highly of me." Fu Huai 'an spoke in his deep voice.
