Chu Xun used to love this mature man's voice the most, but today, he said the most hurtful words.
On the other end of the line, Chu Xun gripped the phone tightly and couldn't stop herself from crying …
Before she called Fu Huai 'an, she had been uneasy for a long time, thinking about how to tell him that she was still alive and how to beg him to save her father!
But when she heard Fu Huai 'an's voice, she couldn't hold back her tears and directly begged him. Fu Huai' an wasn't surprised at all that she was still alive, even though the Chu family had already held a funeral for her.
He didn't panic at all when he suddenly received a call from a "dead person," and was still so calm … so calm that it was too heartless.
He didn't even ask her why she had a funeral when she wasn't dead.
Chu Xun was a smart person. Under such circumstances, either Fu Huai 'an knew she was still alive, or he didn't care about her life or death at all. So, what friendship did she have with Fu Huai' an … What friendship did they have?
The so-called life-saving grace was Chu Xun single-handedly pestering him, and Fu Huai 'an had never acknowledged it.
Even Fu Huai 'an didn't attend Chu Xun's fake funeral, and even Lu Jinnan, whom Chu Xun thought was on good terms with, didn't attend …
Lu Jinnan even called her a slut!
Yes, the so-called friendship between her and Lu Jinnan was built on the fact that Lu Jinnan wanted to pair her with Fu Huai 'an, and it was built on the fact that the Chu family was useful to Fu Huai' an.
Chu Xun gripped the phone and couldn't stop her tears from falling in this shabby house.
"You hate me to death, right?" Chu Xun's voice was choked. "Because of my gaze back then, it led to Lu Xiangsi's death …"
Chu Xun recalled the video that was all over the internet some time ago. She also knew … that her original assistant, the deputy editor of Haicheng Daily, had left and was now the deputy director of the provincial cultural bureau. She heard that the director was preparing to retire and personally promoted Chu Xun's former assistant.
Even if Chu Xun thought with her toes, she knew this was Fu Huai 'an's doing!
Thinking of Lu Xiangsi, Fu Huai 'an's heart was no longer in turmoil. He was extremely calm, and his eyes that were as dark as the night didn't waver in the slightest. "Everyone has the fear of death. Even without that glance from you, Xiangsi would still have stepped forward!"
Lu Xiangsi had always been a kind girl. Even though those people tried their best to protect her from revealing her identity, she wouldn't sit back and watch as those people died because of her.
This was probably the biggest difference between Lu Xiangsi and Chu Xun …
"Then you … Then why? Why did you help my assistant? She resigned on the surface but was secretly promoted to the Provincial Cultural Bureau. I know that!"
Fu Huai 'an's eyes darkened slightly. "Is Miss Chu questioning me?"
Chu Xun choked on Fu Huai 'an's words. Interrogate? What right did she have to question Fu Huai 'an?
"I … I'm not …" Chu Xun sounded flustered.
"Miss Chu, if you have the time, you should worry more about yourself. Worry more about yourself, who is already a dead person. Then … goodbye!"
Fu Huai 'an hung up the phone. Chu Xun's heart was as cold as the Antarctic glacier.
Back then, Chu Xun only found out that Fu Huai 'an had saved Lin Nuan's family when she accidentally eavesdropped on the conversation between Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng. Chu Xun quickly realized that it was probably because Fu Huai' an used to work at a law firm.
"Please pay attention to resting your eyes when reading for long periods of time." She had access to a lot of dirt on top politicians.
This dirt was a double-edged sword. If things went well, it would help Fu Huai 'an, but if things didn't go well, it might cost Fu Huai' an his life.
Now that Fu Huai 'an didn't plan on helping Chu Xun's father, he was so heartless with his words. Chu Xun thought of the life she was going to face in the future, and she had the urge to fight to the death.
But after that urge, she reflected … not only did she have no evidence, she also didn't know who Fu Huai 'an had dirt on them. Who would believe her if she told it to?
She thought about her future life. Now that the Chu family had fallen, what was she going to do?
It hadn't been long since Chu Xun's father sent her money, but the money was limited. She couldn't just sit around and eat it all.
But what could Chu Xun do to support herself?
Chu Xun knew she didn't have the ability to do business.
Chu Xun didn't dare to look for a job in the media, which she was good at. She was afraid her identity would be exposed.
Chu Xun didn't want to do such a job as washing dishes or working as a waitress in a restaurant.
Chu Xun became more and more anxious as she thought about it. She didn't even know what she was going to do in the future. How was she going to save the Chu family and her father?
…
When Lin Nuan woke up in the morning, Tuan Tuan was sleeping soundly on the bed.
She sat up and took a sip of water from the bedside cup. She felt nauseous and patted her chest to suppress the urge to vomit.
She put on a jacket and went downstairs to drink a cup of honey water to suppress the nausea. She came out of the room and saw Cen Mo and Fu Huai 'an playing golf on the lawn through the floor-to-ceiling window in the corridor.
Lin Nuan was surprised and pleasantly surprised. Didn't Fu Huai 'an say he would be back in a few days?
She stood in front of the bed and wrapped her jacket tightly around herself as she looked outside. Fu Huai 'an seemed to have sensed something. His gaze met Lin Nuan's. Even though they were so far apart and separated by a glass, Fu Huai' an could still feel that it was Lin Nuan. He casually handed the golf club to the servant beside him and took off his gloves to inform Cen Mo before walking towards the battery-powered car.
Song Yao hadn't woken up yet, but hearing that Lin Nuan was awake, Cen Mo put down his golf club and came back with her.
Lin Nuan walked over the moment Fu Huai 'an entered the room. "Didn't you say the meeting would take a few days? When did you come back? This morning or last night? Why didn't you rest and instead went to play golf? "
Lin Nuan's questions were like bullets. Seeing Fu Huai 'an take off his jacket, she took it from him and hung it up for him.
Fu Huai 'an was in a good mood after receiving his wife's concern early in the morning.
"En, I missed you and Tuan Tuan, so I came back early! I arrived in the middle of the night last night. I was afraid I'd disturb you and Tuan Tuan's rest, so I made do with staying in the guest room for the night, but I slept very well! " Fu Huai 'an's eyes were full of smiles. "Right, Mom called me this morning and told us to bring Cen Mo back to the Lins tonight. She can't wait until New Year's Eve!"
Lin Nuan's main task now was to focus on her pregnancy. Even if she pushed all her work aside, there wasn't a problem of time. Lin Nuan looked towards Cen Mo, who had just entered the room …
"If you want to go, then go. If you don't, just say I have something on!" Cen Mo said to Lin Nuan very considerately.
"Then let's go! Yao Yao and I don't have much work now, so we have nothing to do at home anyway! "Lin Nuan gently stroked her flat stomach." I have to tell Mom about this! "
