Mr Fu, I Really Love You
chapter-64

Fifteen minutes later, the doorbell to Lin Nuan’s home rang.

As she opened the door, Fu Huai’an’s assistant, Xiao Lu, was standing outside holding a bag of takeaway food. He smiled politely at Lin Nuan and said, “Miss Lin, your late-night dinner.”

Noticing that Xiao Lu was wearing sports attire, she guessed that Fu Huai’an must have let his assistant come here at the last minute.

At the thought of that, Lin Nuan reached out to take the plastic bag and smiled awkwardly as she felt guilty inside. “My apologies, troubling you to come all this way just to deliver this.”

“No worries. Enjoy your meal, Miss Lin. I’ll be on my way.” Xiao Lu nodded at Lin Nuan and turned around, walking towards the elevator.

Lin Nuan felt uneasy after she closed the door.

Fu Huai’an never mentioned the matter of collecting the certificate again. Lin Nuan couldn’t figure out what he was really thinking about inside.

If Fu Huai’an had really confirmed that he wouldn’t collect the certificate with her, why would he come here in the middle of the night and kiss her, and ask somebody to send her a late-night meal? What was that supposed to mean?

He hadn’t brought up the matter despite talking about collecting the certificate.

She recalled that call she got from Liang Mulan about eating together and her heart began to beat faster. Her hands tensed up as she clutched the plastic bag. How was she supposed to tell Fu Huai’an? Or how would she break it to Liang Mulan that they didn’t end up collecting their marriage certificate?

…

By the time Fu Huai’an’s assistant, Xiao Lu, came out of Lin Nuan’s apartment, Fu Huai’an was already sitting in the backseat.

His large hands were holding his phone as he engaged in a conversation over the line. His cigar-wielding hand rested on his folded legs. His deep, dark, mysterious eyes stared at the flaming-red end of the cigar. His stare eventually turned into a preoccupied gaze.

The car window wasn’t closed yet. The apartment light accentuated the structure of his clearly defined profile.

Two girls running back home at night passed by the luxurious car and couldn’t help peeking inside the half-open car window.

Inside the car, the masculine aura of the elegantly dressed, mature man made the girls blush and their hearts race.

The two girls slowed down and watched him send the cigar to the corner of his mouth. He mumbled something into the phone as the smoke dissipated from his mouth. His powerful presence as a successful man was clear to see.

The two girls lowered their voice and argued whether Fu Huai’an was from their neighborhood. A successful man that radiated such masculinity would always have girls falling for him, let alone a man like Fu Huai’an who had exceptional looks and aura.

The Lu Jinnan on the other end of the line had left the drinking gathering and sought out a quiet spot. He lit up a cigar and said to Fu Huai’an, “The Fu family’s elder must have noticed there was something off. I just heard Huanyu’s chief executor Luo from the drinking gathering mention that the elder sent Secretary Song to invite Huanyu’s manager out for dinner.”

Fu Huai’an saw Xiao Lu come out of the apartment from the corner of his eye. Fu Huai’an flicked his cigar without changing his expression. “You think that’s strange?”

“Yes…” Lu JInnan said in a heavy tone, “This old guy is always on his high horse, yet this time he actually let Secretary Song personally come invite Huanyu’s manager out for dinner. It’s something that a simple phone call could achieve, yet he invited him out personally. I won’t buy it if you say there isn’t something going on here.”

“If there really was something up they wouldn’t be so conspicuous,” Fu Huai’an said calmly.

“Brother Fu, you need to count your numbers. This old guy is definitely laying out a path for that wild man outside…”

The old guy Lu Jinnan was referring to was Fu Huai’an’s grandfather, Fu Qingquan, the manager of Kai De Cooperation.

When Fu Huai’an’s mother Fu Wan was about to marry Jiang Chengyuan, she had a huge fallout with her family. After the marriage, Jiang Chengyuan never received genuine support from the Fu Family, resulting in their relationship eventually falling apart.
