Mr Fu, I Really Love You
chapter-678

678 Had to Be Pressed Into the Lake to Cleanse Those Dirty Hearts of Theirs That Reeked of a Rotten Stench!

“Aiyoh, slower!” Fu Mingming’s mother was carrying a platter of snacks. Suddenly having her son charge at her and grab hold of her leg, she nearly lost her balance and dropped the snacks on the tray all over the ground.

Fu Mingming rubbed his face in his mother’s embrace, a little frightened. He felt especially uneasy because of the gaze that Lin Nuan had shot at him!

Although Fu Mingming was little, he had learned to observe others’ emotions through their expressions.

“What’s the matter?” Fu Mingming’s mother lowered her head and stroked Fu Mingming’s head. “Why are you so clumsy? Did your sister bully you?”

Fu Mingming said nothing. He looked in Lin Nuan’s direction, then timidly buried his head in his mother’s arms.

By the lake and under the jubilant lanterns, Lin Nuan was drenched all over, and in her arms was a similarly drenched Tuan Tuan. Upon seeing this, Fu Mingming’s mother’s heart skipped a beat. She lowered her head and glanced at her boy, and she suddenly understood what was going on.

Fu Mingming’s mother, Ye Ziqi, was older than Lin Nuan, and Lin Nuan had seen her before in Haicheng back in the past.

Ye Ziqi was sort of a well-known socialite in Haicheng’s upper class. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to marry Fu Cheng when he was still the successor of the Kaide Corporation.

Ye Ziqi knew that Lin Nuan was Fu Huai’an’s wife now, so she shot Fu Mingming a warning look.

She hurriedly handed the snack platter to the servant and walked towards Lin Nuan with Fu Mingming’s hand in hers, an anxious look on her face. She asked despite clearly knowing what was going on, “What happened? Why is Tuan Tuan all drenched? Hurry and go back into the house! Don’t let the child catch a cold! Did you get a scare?”

Ye Ziqi then reached out and wanted to touch Tuan Tuan’s head, but Lin Nuan moved him away from her touch.

Ye Ziqi wasn’t awkward, though. She hurriedly instructed the servant, “Hurry, go and get Housekeeper Ye to invite the family physician over!”

Lin Nuan originally wanted to pursue the matter, but upon hearing Tuan Tuan sneeze, her heart tightened. She said, “Ye Ziqi, I don’t intend to let this matter rest so easily. We’ll talk about this after I settle Tuan Tuan down! Exactly what happened… who pushed Tuan Tuan into the water, I don’t care if it’s a child that did this. Whoever it was will go soak in that water for me today!”

This was the first time Lin Nuan had spoken so harshly, not giving any face to the other party.

In upper-class society, everyone knew not to speak so harshly and with complete disregard for the other person’s face. Ye Ziqi had grown up in this circle, and this was the first time someone had spoken in that manner with her, even using her child’s safety. She was fuming inside and couldn’t manage a reply.

Lin Nuan was really worried about Tuan Tuan, not sure whether he had suffered any injuries on his body. It was too dark outside, so she couldn’t tell!

The attempt to hold back her temper made Lin Nuan tremble all over!

Tuan Tuan was frightened enough already! She didn’t want to start a quarrel or get physical then and there while Tuan Tuan wasn’t settled down yet. The most important thing now was to make sure Tuan Tuan didn’t suffer any other injuries and see whether he needed to be rushed to the hospital!

Lin Nuan held back the fire in her heart as she carried Tuan Tuan into the house.

In the living room, when the elders heard that Tuan Tuan had fallen into the water, they got a scare.

Lin Nuan and Su Manman carried Tuan Tuan upstairs. Even after helping Tuan Tuan take a warm bath, Tuan Tuan’s lingering fear caused him to hold on tight to Lin Nuan and refuse to let go. Lin Nuan saw the bloody red marks on the back of Tuan Tuan’s neck due to the necklace, and her heart ached.

Tuan Tuan was checked for injuries on his body, and thankfully, there were none. After helping Tuan Tuan take a warm bath, Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan both changed into clean clothes.

Old Madam Fu wanted to see Tuan Tuan, but Tuan Tuan kept his head buried in Lin Nuan’s neck and refused to come out, so Old Madam Fu could only sigh and leave first.

Tuan Tuan, who was worried about his pendant, gazed at Lin Nuan with his watery eyes, pouting in an aggrieved manner. “Necklace… Mama! Necklace!”

“Don’t worry, Mama will definitely retrieve your necklace!” Lin Nuan reassured Tuan Tuan, then asked him what had happened.

From Tuan Tuan’s clumsy explanation, Lin Nuan learned…

Tuan Tuan had just woken up and was feeling a little hungry, so he went to the kitchen to look for food. It was then that he ran into Fu Cheng’s wife, Ye Ziqi, as well as Fu Xinxin and Fu Mingming. Ye Ziqi helped Tuan Tuan get some snacks, then asked Fu Xinxin and Fu Mingming to take Tuan Tuan out to play.

The three of them were standing by the lake and looking at koi when Fu Xinxin asked the servant to go and get them some snacks to feed the koi!

After the servant left, Fu Mingming said he liked Tuan Tuan’s necklace and wanted it for himself. Tuan Tuan refused to give it to him, so Fu Mingming snatched it away with brute force. Tuan Tuan was younger than Fu Mingming and of a smaller build, plus he was no match for Fu Mingming in terms of strength either. When they were fighting for the necklace, Tuan Tuan was suddenly pushed into the lake by Fu Xinxin, who was standing beside them.

Lin Nuan gritted her teeth as she listened to his recount of the incident. Those two older kids ganged up together to bully a smaller child! Fu Cheng and Ye Ziqi taught their kids well! If Lin Nuan didn’t push those two kids into the lake today, she’d write her name in reverse!

Lin Nuan was shaking all over, and her eyes were reddened!

Recalling that look of despair in Tuan Tuan’s eyes, on top of the laughter from those two kids, caused Lin Nuan to feel an urge to murder. Tears very nearly flooded from her eyes.

Lin Nuan held Tuan Tuan tight, afraid the child might see her cry.

“Damn! Bullying a Fu child on our Fu family’s territory! Furthermore, it was two big kids ganging up to bully a small one! I must press those two darned kids into the lake to let them experience this!”

With her fiery temper, Su Manman couldn’t hold herself back upon hearing this. She slammed the door as she left the room, causing a frightened and pale Tuan Tuan to squirm into Lin Nuan’s arms.

Lin Nuan didn’t stop her!

Even if those two were still kids, their hearts were too vicious. They had to be pressed into the lake to cleanse those dirty hearts of theirs that reeked of a rotten stench!

Tuan Tuan was still young and didn’t know to fear death…

However, with the chilly lake water attacking him from all sides, giving him a suffocating sensation, Tuan Tuan was truly frightened!

Trying hard to hold back her emotions and not scare Tuan Tuan, Lin Nuan hugged Tuan Tuan and, with much difficulty, managed to say, “Don’t be scared, Tuan Tuan! Aunt is going to help you get back your necklace!”

Tuan Tuan’s little hand clutched tightly around Lin Nuan’s neck. Perhaps because he finally managed to relax after suffering such a great shock earlier, Tuan Tuan very quickly fell asleep in Lin Nuan’s arms.

“Fu Manman! Have you gone mad? Let go of my two kids!”

“Manman, what are you doing?”

“Mama! Help! Papa! Help!”

“Manman! Quickly let go of those two kids!”

“Fu Manman!”

Just now, Su Manman had slammed the door behind her as she left the room, not closing it properly. Therefore, Lin Nuan could hear the commotion downstairs rather clearly!

Tuan Tuan was jolted awake from his sleep. He sniffled, sounding like he was about to cry, his little hands grabbing Lin Nuan’s clothes even harder now.

Lin Nuan heard Ye Ziqi shriek out Su Manman’s name, Fu Xinxin and Fu Mingming’s crying, and also Old Madam Fu and several other elders’ anxious voices as they asked Su Manman to let go of those two kids.

In the Fu family mansion, Tuan Tuan’s room was the first one on the second level after turning left from the stairs. Since the door wasn’t closed properly, it was inevitable that sounds from downstairs could be heard from there.

Lin Nuan frowned, afraid the racket would get to Tuan Tuan. Therefore, she got up with Tuan Tuan in her arms and walked to the door to shut it properly.
