Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 1296: Brain

“Xiao Bei!” Cai Jingyao pretended to panic and tried to protect Lu Jinbei’s hand that was pointing at Lu Jinnan. She glanced at Lu Jinnan as if she was a frightened deer, then hurriedly pulled Lu Jinbei away. “Let’s go, Xiao Bei! Stop fooling around, let’s… let’s go home!”

However, Lu Jinbei remained rooted to the spot. “I want to get back the endorsement that originally belonged to you!”

Seeing that she couldn’t persuade Lu Jinbei, Cai Jingyao held back her tears. “Stop fooling around… If this continues, how will I get Brother Jinnan and Uncle to accept me within a month? Can you consider me? Look… Brother Jinnan already thinks that I was the one who urged you to come and look for him!”

Lu Jinnan’s vision swept over Cai Jingyao. Bai Xiaonian also looked at her once good friend, whom she used to share a house with, with a hint of a smile on her face…

As expected, Lu Jinbei’s expression changed. He forced himself to be dragged away by Cai Jingyao.

When Bai Xiaonian and Lu Jinnan got home, she asked in a low voice, “Are you really not going to do anything about Lu Jinbei? With his intelligence, he’ll be toyed around to death by Cai Jingyao for sure! Even if he doesn’t die, he’ll at least be injured…”

“Well, isn’t that already the case? Hasn’t he already wrecked his brain?” Lu Jinnan removed his suit jacket and smiled at Bai Xiaonian.

Bai Xiaonian was amused. “I’m serious!”

“Lu Jinbei is a man, and he’s still young. He needs to get trained before marriage… That way, he’ll live up to his future wife’s expectations! This is a good thing, don’t worry!” Lu Jinbei stroked Bai Xiaonian’s head.

Ever since Bai Xiaonian got pregnant, Lu Jinnan had become much calmer…

Perhaps because he’d realized he’d become a father, he had a further vision of the child’s future. He couldn’t protect Lu Jinbei forever. After all, Lu Jinbei was a man. In the future, he had to become someone else’s husband and someone else’s father!

It was impossible for him to always be under Lu Jinnan’s protection just because he was his younger brother, so… Lu Jinnan had to give Lu Jinbei the space to grow up. He needed to let him hit a wall, suffer some setbacks, and resolve those problems by himself.

Looking back, Lu Jinnan realized that his way of loving and caring for his younger brother had been a huge mistake. This was why Lu Jinbei had become such a thoughtless and spineless person!

Now that Lu Jinbei had finally met a highly conniving and manipulative woman like Cai Jingyao, Lu Jinnan’s only wish was for Lu Jinbei to overcome the setbacks he should have suffered in the past. After experiencing such adversity, he hoped Lu Jinbei would finally grow up!

Regardless, Lu Jinbei would always have his older brother’s back, so no matter how badly he would get beaten up, it wouldn’t be so severe that he wouldn’t be able to get up.

After helping Bai Xiaonian upstairs, Lu Jinnan gently massaged Bai Xiaonian’s waist according to the doctor’s instructions. He only got up to wash up in the guest room after she’d fallen asleep.

It had indeed been tough on Bai Xiaonian throughout her pregnancy. Lu Jinnan’s heart ached for her, and he finally understood why Fu Huai’an said that he wouldn’t let Lin Nuan have any more children.

Carrying a baby inside their womb for nine months wasn’t an easy feat for any woman. Bai Xiaonian was a foodie to begin with, so she liked to eat more. Recently, when she went for a prenatal checkup, the baby was rather big. The doctor feared that it would be difficult for her to give birth naturally, so Lu Jinnan kept controlling Bai Xiaonian’s diet.

Lu Jinnan couldn’t bear the pain on Bai Xiaonian’s behalf. He could only empathize with her in other areas and do whatever he could for her.

…

Cai Jingyao pulled Lu Jinbei back home and said to him, “Xiao Bei… I’m very happy that you’re standing up for me, but it’s just as Brother Jinnan said; there’s no such thing as fairness in this world. Since Su Manman is Chairman Fu’s cousin, then I’ll concede defeat if she’s the spokesperson!”

The way Cai Jingyao put it left an impression in Lu Jinbei. She had been forcefully replaced by Lu Jinnan.

“Xiao Bei, I only want to be with you. No matter how much I like this endorsement deal, even if this perfume was inspired by me, even if I regard it as my dream, if it hinders us, I’d rather give it up! I don’t want you to look for Brother Jinnan because of this. Brother Jinnan will hate me even more! Xiao Bei… compared to my dreams, I care more about you! So, I beg of you… don’t ask Brother Jinnan to get me this endorsement anymore! I don’t want it anymore…” Cai Jingyao cried out. “I promised Brother Jinnan… I only have one month. I must use that one month to make Brother Jinnan and Uncle accept me!”

Cai Jingyao’s words broke Lu Jinbei’s heart. He reached out and pulled her into his arms. “The hell with a month! I want to be with you for the rest of my life!”

Cai Jingyao was crying in Lu Jinbei’s arms. Lu Jinbei sat on the sofa and looked at Cai Jingyao, who had fallen asleep in his arms. He recalled what Cai Jingyao said earlier… that this endorsement was her dream.

He then recalled how supportive Cai Jingyao was when she talked about his dreams at the dining room table!

Lu Jinbei lowered his head and looked at Cai Jingyao, who had tears on her eyelashes. He gently tucked her hair behind her ear…

Cai Jingyao made his dreams sound so important, yet she gave up her dreams for him!

How could he ignore Cai Jingyao’s dream…

How could a person be so selfish?

After a long while, Lu Jinbei gently placed Cai Jingyao on the sofa and took his phone to the balcony to call Lu Jinnan.

Cai Jingyao still had her eyes closed, but a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Lu Jinbei stood on the balcony and took a few deep breaths before dialing Lu Jinnan’s number.

This time, Lu Jinbei’s attitude was especially good. Once the call got through, Lu Jinbei said, “Brother… Can I beg you for that endorsement? Can you… give Cai Jingyao a chance? If… you’re willing to give the endorsement to Cai Jingyao, I’m willing to leave Cai Jingyao after one month is over!”

“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up!”

Lu Jinnan’s cold voice could be heard from the other end of the line. Lu Jinbei gritted his teeth and said, “I beg of you! Can’t you just give her a fair chance to compete? Let Su Manman compete with Cai Jingyao, let the perfumer choose the spokesperson for this perfume himself! Brother… this will be the last time I beg of you!”

Lu Jinnan remained silent for a long time before finally saying, “Okay, I hope you won’t regret it in the future.”

After hanging up the call, Lu Jinbei felt relieved. He felt that he could finally give Cai Jingyao an explanation.

The next day, Cai Jingyao was so excited that she screamed like a little girl. She ran out to hug Lu Jinbei and bounced around, saying that the Kaide Corporation had given her a second chance to compete with Su Manman, smiling as brightly as a flower!

She said, “Xiao Bei, I’ll definitely work hard to get this chance! I must secure the endorsement deal and then be with you forever! This is great! This is really great!”

Lu Jinbei’s heart ached, and he nodded.

One month later, he would be leaving Cai Jingyao.

“Let’s go to the supermarket to buy some ingredients later. I’ll cook tonight. Shall we celebrate?”

Lu Jinbei smiled and nodded. He suddenly realized… that he seemed to have fallen in love with Cai Jingyao and didn’t want to leave her. What should he do?
