Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 557: The Fear That Was So Great That It Brought Despair

On the way to the hospital, there was something that Lin Nuan didn’t dare to but couldn’t help thinking about…

What should she do if Fu Huai’an was gone?

Just the thought of it made Lin Nuan feel as if the entire world was going to collapse.

An answer that was gradually getting clearer appeared in Lin Nuan’s heart, and she kept holding it in, not allowing herself to pry open that layer of fog. She didn’t allow herself to arrive at an answer!

Right now, Fu Huai’an was standing before her, safe and sound. Tears burst out from her eyes as the layer of fog in her heart that she intentionally didn’t pry open caused her to be struck by the realization that… without Fu Huai’an, she probably wouldn’t be able to live on!

From the moment she was born until now, no matter what kind of great matter she encountered, Lin Nuan had never thought that she wouldn’t be able to live on.

When her imagination was running wild with the various reasons that Fu Huai’an didn’t pick up the call, she felt like she was going crazy!

If the Fu Huai’an she saw after coming here was already…

Then Lin Nuan would either go crazy or wouldn’t be able to live on!

Right now, Fu Huai’an was perfectly fine, standing before Lin Nuan and embracing her. However, Lin Nuan still felt as if her heart had been clenched tightly by that big hand, causing her to be unable to breathe!

She still felt that the fear was so great that it brought despair.

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault! I left my phone behind in the car! I met someone from…”

Before Fu Huai’an could finish his words, Lin Nuan heard someone calling Fu Huai’an. “Commander Fu!”

Lin Nuan wiped her tears and snot onto Fu Huai’an’s shirt and turned her head. She continued grabbing Fu Huai’an’s shirt, not releasing her hands.

The person who called Fu Huai’an Commander Fu was the black-haired man that Lin Nuan had seen when she opened up the last separating curtain. The man had already put on a cap, and the hood of his black hoodie was also cupped over his head.

Earlier on, Lin Nuan was filled with worry for Fu Huai’an and didn’t take a close look. However, she now found this person a little familiar.

Fu Huai’an lowered his head and said to Lin Nuan, “You should have met him in Iraq. Qin Zhe!”

Hearing that, Lin Nuan released her grip on Fu Huai’an’s shirt and stood next to him, facing Qin Zhe. Her red eyes carefully assessed Qin Zhe’s features.

Qin Zhe was surprised as well and also assessed Lin Nuan’s small face seriously.

Lin Nuan looked at Qin Zhe’s tanned features and felt that he was a little familiar. However, she couldn’t recall which soldier he had been. After all, back then, all of them had camouflage face paint on, even Fu Huai’an.

“It’s you! Gutsy Sister!” Qin Zhe recalled who Lin Nuan was and unconsciously called her by the nickname that their team had for her previously.

Lin Nuan was stunned.

Was he addressing her?

“Gutsy Sister?” This also seemed to be the first time that Fu Huai’an had heard that Lin Nuan had such a nickname.

Qin Zhe scratched his head and said, smiling, “It’s a nickname our team had for her back then!”

Lin Nuan was a feeble woman, but she had dared to go against terrorists for the sake of a child she didn’t know, refusing to hand the child over. What was this if not gutsy?

Recalling how Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an were embracing each other earlier, Qin Zhe asked out of curiosity, “Could it be that the two of you fell in love in Iraq?”

Lin Nuan had yet to reply when Fu Huai’an put his arm around Lin Nuan’s shoulder and nodded.

Qin Zhe smiled. “Congratulations!”

He beamed as he looked at Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan, but then he thought of something, and a hint of grief flashed uncontrollably in his eyes. His throat rolled for a moment, and then his gaze returned to that of a sincere smile. “Commander Fu, it’s really great to see that you’re living a good life now! If only all of us… could be just as good!”

There seemed to be hidden meaning behind Qin Zhe’s words…

His eyes turned red, and he clenched his fists tightly, as if he had made up his mind. He then said, “I should get going. I won’t stand on ceremony with you. And thank you! Commander Fu, I’ll be heading off!”

“Where are you going with your injuries?” Fu Huai’an frowned, having no intention of letting Qin Zhe off. His tone sounded indisputable as he said, “Come with me!”

Qin Zhe’s brows furrowed tightly. “Commander Fu, I mustn’t implicate you!”

“You have already done that! I was the one who brought you to the hospital!”

Qin Zhe and Fu Huai’an were brothers who had gone through life and death situations together in the past! He was his team member!

It was one thing if he didn’t know about this, but after knowing about it, there was no way that he was going to leave things be!

Fu Huai’an had also taken on missions in the past, so how could he not know how dangerous Qin Zhe’s plight was?

Fu Huai’an grabbed Qin Zhe’s shoulder with his big hand that was holding the bill and pulled Qin Zhe toward him. “I can send you past the border! Let’s go!”

Fu Huai’an patted Qin Zhe’s shoulder, indicating for him to rest assured.

Qin Zhe felt uneasy. However, Fu Huai’an’s words had always been orders to them, and his influence was strongly built into them. There was no way he could get himself to object to what Fu Huai’an said.

He followed behind Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an and got into the car.

Lin Nuan didn’t continue to ask what happened to Qin Zhe. Qin Zhe’s identity was special, and Lin Nuan guessed that it must be something related to his mission and needed to be kept secret.

She merely asked Fu Huai’an why they couldn’t contact him today.

Fu Huai’an said that he happened to meet Qin Zhe, who had been injured at the scene of the accident, so he sent Qin Zhe to the hospital. He left the cake and phone behind in the car and thus didn’t manage to pick up the calls that Little Lu made.

In the extended luxury car, Qin Zhe leaned against the window with his hands in his pockets. He kept on looking outside.

Along Dubai’s streets, a luxury car like this didn’t stand out at all. It was very common.

The partition in front had been raised, and the chauffeur couldn’t see what was going on in the back.

Fu Huai’an didn’t press Qin Zhe about his mission. He merely asked, “You’ve been betrayed?”

Qin Zhe looked at Fu Huai’an in surprise and nodded with a grim countenance. His hands, which were in his pockets, clenched tightly, and green veins were popping out.

Fu Huai’an wore an understanding expression. “I’ll make arrangements to send you back tonight!”

“Will this implicate you?” Qin Zhe sat upright, feeling uneasy.

“I have some connections over here, and not just anyone can lay their hands on me. Even if someone finds out that I was the one to send you back, it won’t matter!”

Fu Huai’an’s words let Qin Zhe feel at ease.

Qin Zhe hesitated for a moment as if there was something he wanted to say to Fu Huai’an. He threw a glance at Lin Nuan and eventually pursed his lips, leaning back against the comfortable seat with his brows tightly furrowed.

Qin Zhe’s mission this time around was to investigate the smuggling of firearms.

Qin Zhe wanted to say that some vague leads pointed toward Haicheng. Qin Zhe wanted to ask if it was related to Fu Huai’an but was afraid that this would scare Lin Nuan. If Fu Huai’an was really involved…

Qin Zhe raised his head and looked at Fu Huai’an, recalling that Fu Huai’an mentioned that he had some connections here.

Qin Zhe suddenly felt a little uncertain about whether Fu Huai’an was trustworthy.

However, Qin Zhe was willing to trust Fu Huai’an. After all, Fu Huai’an’s younger brother and sister-in-law had both been killed by the guns of those people. Therefore, he would be willing to believe that Fu Huai’an was involved in firearms!

Qin Zhe refused to believe that Fu Huai’an had smuggled firearms to those people for the sake of money!

At the thought of this, Qin Zhe felt a lot more assured…

He was willing to believe in Fu Huai’an!

Later on, in the absence of Lin Nuan, Qin Zhe was willing to reveal everything to Fu Huai’an!
