Lin Nuan admired Yun Liuli's bravery. At least … when she was Yun Liuli's age, she wasn't as brave as Yun Liuli!
Lin Nuan nodded. "Okay … do you need the chef's help?"
The young lady gripped her phone tightly and shook her head. "I want to do it personally for him!"
She brought Yun Liuli downstairs to the kitchen and instructed the chef to prepare the ingredients needed to make a cake for Yun Liuli before heading into the kitchen.
When Fu Huai 'an and Gu Qingcheng came downstairs, Lin Nuan saw that Gu Qingcheng had a coat over his arm and a pair of leather gloves in his hand. She asked, "Are you leaving?"
She was clearly asking Gu Qingcheng. Gu Qingcheng nodded, his gaze sweeping past Lin Nuan. He didn't see Yun Liuli, but he didn't ask.
"Since you're back in the country, why don't you stay for a few more days? You just arrived and you're leaving? "
Fu Huai 'an stood next to Gu Qingcheng with his hands in his pockets. He immediately saw through Lin Nuan's intention to keep Gu Qingcheng here for Yun Liuli. He smiled but didn't expose her. "Qingcheng isn't leaving yet. He's staying in a hotel …"
"Since you're back in the country, don't stay in a hotel. Stay at home! I've already asked the servants to clean up the room you stayed in the last time … "Lin Nuan smiled and lied without batting an eyelid.
The servants in the Fu residence were smart. Hearing Lin Nuan say this, they secretly got someone to clean up the guest room Gu Qingcheng had stayed in previously.
"Qingcheng's luggage has been settled in the hotel. Don't move it back and forth. Let him be …" Fu Huai 'an said.
Lin Nuan looked at Fu Huai 'an and nodded. She felt sorry for Yun Liuli for not being able to make her stay. With the intention of making it up to Yun Liuli, Lin Nuan said to Gu Qingcheng, "Stay for lunch!"
"I still have something to deal with at noon, so I won't delay!" Gu Qingcheng gazed at Lin Nuan. "Thank you for taking care of Xiao Liuli during this period of time!"
"It's my duty!"
Lin Nuan wasn't being polite. Gu Qingcheng risked his life for Fu Huai 'an in that world, so Lin Nuan would risk her life to take good care of Yun Liuli.
Lin Nuan and Fu Huai 'an sent Gu Qingcheng out. Watching as Gu Qingcheng got into the car and left, Lin Nuan stuffed her petite hand into Fu Huai' an's palm and hugged his arm with one hand, saying, "Gu Qingcheng isn't staying at home. Is he trying to hide from Xiao Liuli?"
After not hearing Fu Huai 'an's reply for a while, Lin Nuan looked up at him and heard him say slowly, "Tang Zheng, Lu Jinnan, and Bai Jinyu will be coming over for dinner tonight. Qingcheng will also bring his girlfriend over!"
Lin Nuan was stunned. She blinked her clear eyes, feeling surprised, perplexed, and at a loss.
Fu Huai 'an gripped Lin Nuan's petite hand tightly and explained to her, "Since there's no future between you and Yun Liuli, you should be more decisive. Dragging things out won't do either of them any good!"
Therefore, Gu Qingcheng wanted to use his sword to sever Yun Liuli's feelings!
Lin Nuan couldn't help but frown. "Do you have to use this method? Isn't it too hurtful?! "
"It's not that Qingcheng hasn't talked to Yun Liuli before, but there's almost no effect, so he can only choose this method …"
"Does he like his current girlfriend?! Isn't it unfair to another lady like this? "
"Qingcheng plans to get married," Fu Huai 'an said.
Lin Nuan's lips parted slightly. She hadn't expected that Gu Qingcheng would go to this extent …
Get married?
That's right, if it was just to dispel the feelings Yun Liuli shouldn't have toward him, it was one thing to let Yun Liuli meet his girlfriend, but he didn't have to bring her here for Fu Huai 'an to see.
"Please pay attention to resting your eyes when reading for a long time." "Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng meet."
"Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng meet."
They were actually planning to get married!
To Gu Qingcheng, either he would be a loner for the rest of his life, or his wife had to be strong enough to protect herself and not become his weakness. It just so happened that there was someone like that who was very suitable for Gu Qingcheng.
It was just suitable.
Lin Nuan subconsciously gripped Fu Huai 'an's large hand tightly, unable to help feeling heartache for Yun Liuli.
The gathering that night was the last gift Gu Qingcheng gave Yun Liuli after she became an adult.
That day, Yun Liuli stayed in the kitchen, focusing on preparing the birthday cake for Gu Qingcheng.
When she went to call Yun Liuli for lunch, Lin Nuan tactfully told Yun Liuli that Gu Qingcheng would be bringing his girlfriend over for dinner that night. Yun Liuli seemed to be immersed in her own world, nodding without blinking as she seriously competed with the cream.
Looking at Yun Liuli's thin shoulders, Lin Nuan's heart ached a little. She couldn't help but want to reach out to touch the young lady's beautiful long black hair, but she eventually retracted her hand. She decided to tell Yun Liuli the cruel truth so that Yun Liuli wouldn't be unable to take it when she suddenly heard the news that night.
"I heard from Huai 'an that Gu Qingcheng plans to get married to the lady who's coming tonight!"
It was cruel, if that was the case.
But if Gu Qingcheng were to act it out, it would be even crueler.
Yun Liuli pretended not to hear, squeezing the cream with moderate strength to decorate the edge of the cake.
The sunlight was bright outside the golden window, but Yun Liuli still turned on all the lights in the kitchen. The cold light outlined Yun Liuli's thin figure, making her look beautiful and lonely … so cold that she seemed untainted by the world.
"Liuli …" Lin Nuan softly called out Yun Liuli's name.
Yun Liuli smiled and raised her head to look at Lin Nuan, her beautiful eyes as pure as glass. She asked, "Sister Xiao Nuan, do you think the cake looks good?"
It was the first time Yun Liuli had personally made a cake, and it was surprisingly beautiful. It was like a display item in a bakery's window.
She pointed to the center of the white cream and removed the disposable gloves on her hands. "I plan to use cherry jam to make a heart shape in the center. It'll be simpler …"
So, every time Gu Qingcheng talked to Yun Liuli about these issues, Yun Liuli chose not to hear them?
Lin Nuan smiled and nodded, no longer talking about this topic …
Yun Liuli's smile became cleaner and brighter. She removed her apron and placed it on the counter, looking excited. "There's no more cherry jam at home. I'll go out to buy some, as well as some candles and necessities for my birthday. Can you get the driver to send me?"
"Okay, I'll get the driver to prepare the car …"
"Thank you, Sister Xiao Nuan!" Yun Liuli smiled sweetly, so sweetly that her heart ached.
…
Lu Jinnan and Tang Zheng arrived early in the afternoon. Tang Zheng even brought along his little cotton-padded jacket, Little Candy. It was just that his little cotton-padded jacket was made of hedgehog fur, the kind that faced inward, making it very prickly.
Today, Little Candy, Tuan Tuan, and Little Happy had fun the whole day. At night, the two little ones got together again. Hearing that Yun Liuli was making a cake in the kitchen, Little Candy grabbed Tuan Tuan's hand and ran to the kitchen, saying that she wanted to eat cake.
Before Bai Jinyu left, he suddenly added another surgery to his schedule. Xu Wanwan called Lin Nuan and told her not to wait for them for dinner. She didn't know when Bai Jinyu's surgery would end.
The second update, please hit the charts …
