Mr Fu, I Really Love You

chapter-205
The makeup artist was putting the final touches on Su Manman. Meanwhile, Lin Nuan was discussing the details of the program with the producer and Su Manman's manager.
Bai Xiaonian had also made her way to the studio recording. The Lin family was in trouble, and although Lin Nuan had not mentioned it yet, it was part of the morning news special she had been in charge of reporting. Bai Xiaonian was sure that Lin Nuan was aware of what had happened.
As Su Manman sent messages on her phone, she took a glance at Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan was standing on the stage with the sleeves of her light blue blazer folded to her elbows. Her slender fingers were going through the documents, and she was pointing at the contents and talking at the same time. The white ladies watch on her wrist even made her skin seemed even fairer.
She had delicate features with a sharp nose. While having a conversation with Su Manman's manager, she lowered her head, and some of her hair fell onto her face. She automatically tugged her hair behind her ears, and the look of concentration on her face made her seem especially attractive.Looking at Lin Nuan, Su Manman thought of a piece of poetry that was used to depict beauties—Brows like emerald-green feathers, skin as fair as snow, waist as slender as a beam of silk, teeth as neat as a row of shells—poetry that would be used to describe a beautiful and womanly lady like Lin Nuan.
The discussion Lin Nuan was having with Su Manman's manager went smoothly, and then it was finally time to start the recording.
Lin Nuan made a simple introduction before inviting Su Manman on stage.
The Lin family's troubles had somewhat affected Lin Nuan, but she was professional enough to draw a clear line between work and her personal life.
The recording went smoothly and ended with questions on Su Manman's latest scandal and the movie she was about to film, "The Exorcist".
Su Manman explained in an aloof manner that the man in question was, in fact, her biological brother and not her boyfriend and that everyone should not take the paparazzi's inaccurate reports for real. She was only clarifying the rumors as her manager didn't want others to think that she was using the scandal as an excuse to promote her latest movie "The Exorcist". If it was up to her, she wouldn't care less.
Su Manman said that she had previously come to an agreement with her fans that if she were to be in a relationship, she would personally announce it to them on her social media account. She promised her fans they wouldn't only find out about it through media reports. It was a promise she had made, and she would make good on it.As a superstar, Su Manman was clear about her niche positioning in the industry. She was marketed as 'Miss Cynical', someone who was nonchalant about everything, except her fans. Everything that she said may seem unintentional, but it was in fact, well thought out.
The program ended. All of a sudden, Su Manman turned towards Lin Nuan, smiled, and said, "Lin Nuan… I really like you. It was a pleasure talking to you, and I hope we will have a chance to work together again soon."
Lin Nuan was overwhelmed. She smiled and nodded, "Yes, of course!"
After the recording, Bai Xiaonian accompanied Lin Nuan to the dressing room. Lin Nuan removed her makeup and changed out of her outfit, but didn't intend to leave with Bai Xiaonian.
What Wang Quan did to Lin Nuan at the dinner the night before had already spread like wildfire in the building. Lin Nuan told Bai Xiaonian honestly about Wang Quan's offer that morning.
Bai Xiaonian was clear that even if Lin Nuan knew Wang Quan was a jerk, she would still go with him if there was a glimmer of hope.
"It's worth a try. Only the people in the Audit Office would know best about Father's situation. Regardless of whether or not this is a trap set by Wang Quan, I will give it a try as long as there's a glimmer of hope. Don't worry… I will take care of myself. At most, he may try to take advantage of me. We are colleagues, so he can't possibly force himself on me!"
