Can we talk in your study? "Fu Tianci clenched his fists by his side, looking nervous.
Fu Huai 'an nodded and turned to walk upstairs. Fu Tianci followed closely behind him, turning back to glance at Lin Nuan after taking two steps …
Seeing Lin Nuan smile and nod at him, Fu Tianci clenched his fists and quickened his pace to catch up.
Tang Zheng went to the door to welcome Lin Nuan. He wanted to see You Nainai as soon as possible, but he didn't expect to see Fu Tianci instead. Fu Tianci followed Fu Huai 'an upstairs, and Tang Zheng hurriedly asked Lin Nuan, "Sis-in-law, where's Nainai?"
"Nainai is parking the car. She'll be right there!" Lin Nuan's eyes were smiling.
Tang Zheng didn't feel awkward and walked out. "I'll go take a look!"
Lin Nuan nodded.
Seeing Lu Jinnan standing at the door, she said, "Xiao Bai is on the way. I just called to confirm!"
Lu Jinnan heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. The word "thank you" was stuck in his throat.
Lin Nuan walked up the stairs and added, "Xiao Bai knows you're here!"
Lu Jinnan's hands tightened in his pockets as he smiled and nodded. "Thank you!"
This time around, Bai Xiaonian didn't tell Lin Nuan much about her and Lu Jinnan. Every time, she wanted to say something but stopped herself. In the end, she just pursed her lips and didn't say anything.
Lin Nuan guessed that Bai Xiaonian was too hot-tempered. When she saw that Hong Jinyun girl looking for Lu Jinnan, she only remembered that Lu Jinnan killed someone for Hong Jinyun. She didn't ask anything else and just denied everything about Lu Jinnan. Therefore, she wanted to find a chance for Bai Xiaonian and Lu Jinnan to talk and resolve the misunderstanding.
Lin Nuan didn't ask Fu Huai 'an too much about that lady called Hong Jinyun. However, from Lu Jinnan's words, Lin Nuan could tell that he no longer cared about that lady.
Lin Nuan didn't know the inside story of the murder, but Bai Xiaonian did. Lin Nuan felt that it was because she knew that Bai Xiaonian was so angry …
But no matter what, Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian had feelings for each other, and Lin Nuan was willing to help them.
Lu Jinnan didn't go back to the house to wait after hearing Lin Nuan's words. He stood at the door and stared at the two black metal doors in the distance, waiting.
He saw You Nainai walking into the house with a cold expression as usual. Tang Zheng was saying something at the side, and there was an obvious smile in the depths of You Nainai's eyes.
Tang Zheng persisted. Although he didn't do anything overboard, he was already very close to You Nainai. This time around, You Nainai didn't avoid Tang Zheng by a few steps like before. She merely smiled slightly.
It was rare for Lu Jinnan to see You Nainai smile. He felt that Tang Zheng's good news was near. What about him?
The black metal gates in the distance opened once again. Lu Jinnan's heart was in his throat, but the car that came in was getting closer and closer. When Lu Jinnan saw clearly that it was Bai Jinyu's car, he lost interest, the light in his eyes fading away.
Upstairs, Fu Huai 'an brought Fu Tianci to the study and asked, "What do you want to say?"
"I want to call off the engagement with Pengcheng's Mu family!" Fu Tianci didn't hide anything and spoke his mind directly. "I don't like Mu Mantong and don't want to hold her up. I also don't want her to interfere in my life. So, it's better to call off this engagement!"
"Did a lady from the Mu family interfere in your life?" Fu Huai 'an asked.
Fu Tianci felt unhappy at the mention of this, so he told Fu Huai 'an about what Mu Mantong had been doing during this period of time.
Fu Huai 'an was silent for a moment, then said, "Tell this to Old Master Fu!"
"Won't I be beaten to death if I say it directly?" Fu Tianci felt timid. He was actually still very afraid of Fu Qingquan's walking stick.
"In the past, Old Master Fu and Secretary Song helped you set up the engagement with Pengcheng's Mu family in order to help you take down the Kaide Corporation. But now, there's no longer any meaning to it. Old Master Fu won't disagree with the annulment of the engagement!" Fu Huai 'an paused before saying, "It's just that Pengcheng's Mu family probably won't want to call off the engagement so easily!"
Mu Mantong was Old Master Mu's only daughter. Since Mu Mantong liked Fu Tianci so much, she probably wouldn't let go so easily.
Moreover, back then, Fu Qingquan had signed such an agreement in order to set up the engagement with Pengcheng's Mu family. Even if the Mu family were to relent on the engagement, they would still have to bite a chunk of Fu Qingquan's flesh!
She didn't know whether in Fu Qingquan's heart, this piece of meat was more important or Fu Tianci's future happiness …
Fu Huai 'an lowered his gaze and thought about it. Now that the Kaide Corporation was in Fu Huai' an's hands, Old Master Fu no longer caused trouble because Fu Huai 'an had the Fu family's blood running in him.
But if it was the Mu family, Old Master Fu would not have admitted defeat so easily.
Fu Huai 'an thought about it, then said to Fu Tianci, "Go back and tell Old Master Fu to get Secretary Song to handle this matter. He'll definitely get it done!"
"Secretary Song …" Fu Tianci was a little surprised.
Fu Tianci could vaguely see a hint of a smile in the depths of Fu Huai 'an's eyes. "When it comes to how to act like a rascal in a refined manner, Secretary Song is very good at it!"
Although Fu Tianci. didn't understand, he knew it wasn't something good.
"Pass my words to Secretary Song, word for word!" Fu Huai 'an tapped his index finger on the desk, preparing to head downstairs. He didn't want to waste his energy on this matter.
"Will this work?" Fu Tianci expressed his doubt as he followed behind Fu Huai 'an.
"If you don't believe me, think of a way yourself."
Fu Tianci followed behind Fu Huai 'an, nodding repeatedly. "I believe you! I believe you!"
In Fu Tianci's eyes, Fu Huai 'an had always been omnipotent, and there was nothing Fu Huai' an couldn't do. If Fu Huai 'an said it would work, it would definitely work!
This was probably a form of blind worship …
Downstairs, Bai Jinyu and Xu Wanwan were being lectured by a few people, saying that they were too much, not even treating everyone to a meal after getting their marriage certificate.
Tuan Tuan had already returned from kindergarten. The little one greeted everyone, then rushed upstairs to see his younger sister!
It was especially lively at home today, and everyone downstairs was chatting and laughing. Only Lu Jinnan was absent-mindedly staring in the direction of the door.
Lin Nuan and Yun Liuli were still upstairs. Fu Huai 'an glanced at Lu Jinnan's downcast expression and told the servants to go upstairs and ask Lin Nuan why Bai Xiaonian hadn't arrived yet.
What he meant was for Lin Nuan to give them a call to rush them!
More importantly, Fu Huai 'an was worried that Bai Xiaonian had regretted her decision and didn't want to see Lu Jinnan on the way there, so she had turned back, causing Lu Jinnan to rejoice for nothing.
Although Fu Huai 'an didn't understand Bai Xiaonian, he understood his little wife very well. Lin Nuan would never trick Bai Xiaonian into coming over. She must have already told Bai Xiaonian that Lu Jinnan was here.
After the servants finished speaking to Lin Nuan, Lin Nuan gave Bai Xiaonian a call. Bai Xiaonian was still on the way, grumbling, "I'm so unlucky! I scratched someone's car, and I'm on Qujiang Road now!"
