But towards a man like Matt De Niro, who exceeded Lin Nuan's understanding of the normal world, Lin Nuan only wanted to stay away from him.
Li Muyang narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lin Nuan. He had to admit that Lin Nuan was a very smart lady.
Although Li Muyang wasn't a gentleman, he wouldn't go so far as to coerce others into befriending Lin Nuan shamelessly.
"Lin Nuan …" Li Muyang gazed at Lin Nuan. His devilishly thin and handsome features were illuminated by the golden light that penetrated through the layers of leaves.
He narrowed his bright eyes, and his smile appeared so mournful. "I don't know how many more days I can live. I won't do anything to you. I just want to be friends with you, the most ordinary of friends …"
Lin Nuan didn't say a word. Her calm expression appeared a little cold.
Men were used to picking up girls to gain their sympathy. It wasn't that no man had ever used such methods on Lin Nuan before, but it was basically ineffective.
Perhaps it was because Lin Nuan's heart was too cold and hard.
Li Muyang laughed self-mockingly. "It's true that I'm Matt De Niro. It's true that I'm a member of the De Niro family, but I'm also an ordinary person. My birth isn't something I can choose, Nuan Nuan!"
Lin Nuan clenched her fists by her side, her gaze still bright.
Hearing the word "Nuan Nuan" come out of Li Muyang's mouth made Lin Nuan's hair stand on end, and a chill ran down her spine.
After a macaw circled in the air, it actually landed on Li Muyang's shoulder. Lin Nuan looked at the colorful big bird and didn't say a word.
"I also want to live the kind of ordinary life you speak of, to be an ordinary person!" Li Muyang smiled lightly at Lin Nuan. "Perhaps, if I were born in an ordinary family, my body wouldn't be in this state because of my own family. I wouldn't have to worry about whether I'll be able to see tomorrow's sun after today, and I wouldn't be tormented by illness to the point where I'd wish I was dead."
"Nuan Nuan, you don't know what it feels like to know that your death is near, but you don't know if it'll be tomorrow. I'm not a saint, and I can't face death calmly. I live in fear every day! You're a lady full of vitality. Although you're cold and have a cool personality, I feel like there's a huge volcano hidden in your body, a volcano that will burn for love at any moment. Interacting with someone like you makes me feel like I've been reborn! "
Lin Nuan didn't know if what Li Muyang said was true or not …
Even if it was true, it couldn't stir up any ripples in Lin Nuan's heart. Perhaps Lin Nuan was born a cold-hearted person. Apart from the people she cared about, no one else was important to her.
The shrewd Li Muyang gazed at Li Nuan's eyes, which were as pure as black gemstones. He suddenly lowered his head and smiled. He waved the macaw off his shoulder and said, "I really wish I was in Iraq in 2016. That way … I could have met you earlier than Fu Huai 'an!"
Lin Nuan had already heard from Fu Huai 'an that in 2016, the De Niro family underwent a huge change. She heard that Matt De Niro's lover also died at that time …
Therefore, when these words came out of Li Muyang's mouth, Lin Nuan only felt that this man was too heartless.
"I thought that Mr. Li was looking for your lover's shadow in me because my voice was similar to your lover's. Your lover just passed away in 2016, so it's a bit too cold to say that."
Li Muyang understood that Lin Nuan was implying that Li Muyang was heartless.
"You understand the rumors about me, but you don't understand my relationship with Xiao Mei. Nuan Nuan …" Li Muyang said. "Xiao Mei and I aren't what you think we are!"
The corners of Lin Nuan's lips curled up. She didn't say anything, but she had already expressed her attitude.
The one who had once told Lin Nuan that her voice was similar to his lover's was Li Muyang.
But today, Li Muyang's words made it seem as if he wanted to deny his feelings for that "lover" of his …
It was as if he really loved Lin Nuan!
"Nuan Nuan, you're almost identical to the woman I wanted since I was young, except … you don't love me!" Although Li Muyang was smiling, his hands were clenched into fists by his sides, and his veins were popping out. He was trying his best to suppress that crazy thought in his mind.
"Does this include the fact that I'm already someone else's wife?" Lin Nuan asked.
Li Muyang's smile became increasingly devilish as he nodded. "Yes …"
Lin Nuan's body trembled, and a chill ran down her spine. All the hair on her body stood on end. She felt that Li Muyang's heart and character were twisted!
Lin Nuan, who had received treatment from Lu Hanzi for a few years, could acutely sense that there was indeed something wrong with Li Muyang's mental state.
Lin Nuan restrained herself from trembling. The moment Li Muyang replied, it was as if everything had gone silent. The melodious chirping of birds, the sound of the waterfall, and the flowing water had all disappeared. Lin Nuan could only hear the sound of her heart pounding violently.
She recalled how Fu Huai 'an had said that Li Muyang had killed his entire family and shuddered.
Lin Nuan, who also had some mental problems, had to be especially careful when interacting with a person with psychological barriers.
"Nuan Nuan, you said that you don't want to interact with dangerous people and people from different social classes and different worlds. But do you know that the person sleeping next to you and I … are the same kind of people?" Li Muyang asked in return.
Although Lin Nuan vaguely knew that Fu Huai 'an's secret business wasn't simple, Lin Nuan still felt shocked when Li Muyang pointed it out just like that.
"You probably haven't heard how Mr. Fu made his fortune in the United States. Compared to Mr. Fu, the only difference between us … is that he doesn't deal in human and organ trafficking. He doesn't deal in drugs, and he doesn't deal in firearms that are used to harm civilians either!"
"Do you know what Mr. Fu is known as in the industry? Mr. Moral … "Li Muyang smiled." This name is really ironic, but Mr. Moral deals in the most immoral business, dealing in firearms and assassin organizations that deal in human lives. Your husband's business can be ranked among the top in the world, not to mention in Asia! "
Lin Nuan felt a chill run down her spine when she heard that, and goosebumps appeared all over her body …
"All these years, your husband's businesses have been managed by Mr. Gu, but everyone knows that Mr. Gu has Mr. Moral backing him up. There are also many people who want this Mr. Moral dead!"
Li Muyang didn't hide anything at all. He exposed the other side of Fu Huai 'an for Lin Nuan to see.
"Who would've thought that? This mysterious Mr. Moral isn't an old man in his twilight years like everyone thinks he is. He didn't live in seclusion. Instead, he openly became the president of a huge corporation in Haicheng. He even played a game of fighting for the corporation that was nothing to him … "
