Are you planning to let my mother in? "Fu Tianci's expression darkened.
"You … don't want your mother to come in?" Lin Nuan gazed at Fu Tianci with a smile, clearly treating him like a child.
Fu Tianci's ears felt a little hot, and he hesitated for a moment. "It's not that I don't want my mother to come in, but with her personality, if she comes in, she might search the house for me. I don't think that's a good idea, so … let's not let her in …"
It wasn't that Fu Tianci wasn't filial, but he knew Lu Qingmei's personality too well. If Lu Qingmei came in and couldn't see him, she would surely search everywhere and scold Fu Huai 'an and Lin Nuan for abducting him! Fu Tianci didn't want to bring trouble to Fu Huai 'an and Lin Nuan because of him.
Lin Nuan tugged at Fu Huai 'an's sleeve, but before she could say anything, Fu Huai' an said calmly, "We can go to the Green Mountain Villa. When we go out, tell Fu Tianci's mother that he's not here, and then we'll leave! Don't let Mom wait in vain … "
Even though Lin Nuan knew Ji Yun's mental state, she probably wouldn't know who Lin Nuan was even if she went, Lin Nuan still felt a little warmth in her heart when she heard Fu Huai 'an's words.
Lin Nuan nodded. "Okay!"
…
Lu Qingmei saw the black door open and thought they could go in. She was about to ask the driver to drive when she saw a car drive out.
The black metal door slowly closed.
Lu Qingmei narrowed her eyes and saw that the car had stopped next to hers. The rear window was rolled down, and it happened to face Lu Qingmei. Seeing the smile on Lin Nuan's face, Lu Qingmei's face darkened as she rolled down the window and met Lin Nuan's gaze.
Through the rolled down window, Lu Qingmei saw Fu Huai 'an sitting on the other side, his head lowered as if he was looking at his email on his phone.
"Miss Lu, are you here to look for Tianci?"
Lin Nuan didn't call Lu Qingmei Mrs. Fu like others did. Ever since Fu Huai 'an started calling her that, Lin Nuan felt that it was exclusive to her.
Lu Qingmei paused when she heard Lin Nuan call her that, and her anger rose. She felt that Lin Nuan was being sarcastic …
Seeing Lu Qingmei's grim expression, Lin Nuan said, "Tianci did come in the morning and left after putting down his luggage. Miss Lu, why don't you give Tianci a call and ask him where he is now so that you can pick him up?"
When the guard called and said that Lu Qingmei had come to pick Fu Tianci up, Lin Nuan knew that she couldn't lie to Lu Qingmei about Fu Tianci's presence. She simply admitted to it, but her words were half-truths.
Did he think she was a fool?! The location of Fu Tianci's wallet was still in the Fu residence, yet Lin Nuan told her that Fu Tianci had left?
Fu Tianci was used to being extravagant over the years. How could he not bring his wallet when he went out? Lu Qingmei was Fu Tianci's mother, so how could she not understand her son?
But since Lin Nuan had put it this way, Lu Qingmei couldn't force her way in. "Okay then … I'll wait for Tianci to come back! I can't get through to this kid's phone … "
Lin Nuan only nodded and didn't continue the conversation. Lu Qingmei glanced at Fu Huai 'an from the corner of her eye and chuckled …
"Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu are going out?" Lu Qingmei's smile was especially insincere.
"Right!" Lin Nuan nodded. "That's why we won't invite Miss Lu in to sit!"
Lu Qingmei almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face. She nodded. "Okay!"
Lin Nuan rolled up the car window. She really didn't plan on saying anything to Lu Qingmei. Lu Qingmei's nude-colored nails were almost broken by her pinching.
Lu Qingmei's chauffeur saw from the rearview mirror that the car carrying Fu Huai 'an and Lin Nuan had already gone far away. He felt awkward for Lu Qingmei. She said she wanted to wait for someone, but they didn't seem to have any intention of letting her in to sit …
The chauffeur asked Lu Qingmei, "Madam, are we going to wait here?"
"Wait!" Lu Qingmei gritted her teeth.
She didn't believe that Fu Tianci could bear not to come out after knowing that his mother was waiting outside.
…
Lin Nuan and Fu Huai 'an arrived at the Green Mountain Villa. They didn't expect to see Gu Shaoting leaning against the car and smoking at the door. He was 1.86 meters tall, and he looked tall and slender!
Gu Shaoting saw a luxury car stop next to his car. He straightened his body and kept one hand in his pocket as he tapped the cigarette ash on the ground, looking very aloof.
He had always had a cold and aloof attitude. Even his appearance looked like one that wasn't to be trifled with. His features were cold and handsome.
Unlike Fu Huai 'an, who looked thin when he was dressed and muscular when he was undressed, Gu Shaoting looked thinner.
Seeing Lin Nuan get out of the car, Gu Shaoting nodded at her and extinguished his cigarette with the tip of his foot. He said, "I accompanied Lin Ran over."
Another time, when Fu Huai 'an got out of the car, Gu Shaoting nodded at him in greeting.
"You didn't go in?" Lin Nuan didn't have time to zip up her down jacket after getting out of the car, so she could only wrap it tightly around herself.
Lin Nuan and Gu Shaoting could be considered acquaintances. In the past, the two of them had the status of fiancée, but they were very cold to each other!
Now that Lin Nuan was married, the two of them got rid of this status, and they got along more comfortably than before.
"I came out to get the gloves that Xiao Ran brought for Auntie and smoke a cigarette!" Gu Shaoting then opened the car door and took out a bag from the backseat. Inside were the gloves that Lin Ran had knitted herself. They didn't look very good, but the needles were very fine. One look and one could tell that she had put in a lot of effort.
"Then let's go in together!" Lin Nuan said as she naturally reached out to hold Fu Huai 'an's large hand. The two of them walked forward side by side.
You Nainai took out the bird's nest and donkey-hide gelatin for Ji Yun from the trunk, then locked the car and walked towards the villa with the things.
Inside the villa, Lin Ran and Ji Yun sat in front of the warm fireplace. Lin Ran was carefully feeding Ji Yun bird's nest porridge, occasionally using a tissue to wipe away the stains on the corners of Ji Yun's lips. The scene looked especially heartwarming.
"Did you take it?"
Lin Ran looked up and asked when she saw someone enter from the corner of her eye. She hadn't expected Lin Nuan, Fu Huai 'an, and Gu Shaoting to enter together. She paused in surprise, and her ears turned red. It felt as if she had confessed without being pressed.
"I did …" Gu Shaoting walked towards Lin Ran and placed the bag on the sofa. "Put it here?"
Lin Ran nodded, her face and neck turning red.
Gu Shaoting and Fu Huai 'an sat on the sofa not far away. Neither of them were talkative, and the topics they talked about were mostly related to the economy.
When You Nainai came in after changing her shoes, Lin Nuan had already taken over the task of feeding Lin Ran the porridge. Lin Ran sat on the sofa's armrest and peeled chestnuts. "I want to discuss something with you …"
"Mm, go ahead …" Lin Nuan replied.
Lin Ran placed the plate with the peeled chestnuts to Lin Nuan and said, "I want to take Mom on a trip overseas during the Chinese New Year!"
Hearing this, Lin Nuan looked towards Lin Ran, then glanced at Gu Shaoting from the corner of her eye.
