Mr Fu, I Really Love You

chapter-856
Lin Nuan didn't know who Fu Huai'an had arranged by her side. She only knew that they were hidden around her and usually appeared inconspicuous. Such as that puppy guy at Jinjiang TV Station and the young lady Mu Taotao, who appeared carefree and insensible…
They looked incredibly ordinary, yet once Lin Nuan encountered some trouble, they were quick to rush to her rescue, and it seemed like they were capable of doing everything!
Fu Huai'an nodded, not saying more to Lin Nuan, lest she worried about Yun Liuli.
Seeing Lin Nuan naturally sitting in the front passenger seat, You Nainai sighed, feeling that the natural way Lin Nuan behaved around her was so precious. Lin Nuan had never regarded her as a bodyguard, chauffeur, or personal assistant, but as a friend!
Fu Huai'an watched as Lin Nuan and You Nainai left before turning around to go back in. Yun Liuli walked down the stairs with a cup, gazing at him and looking like she wanted to say something but was holding back. Seeing this, Fu Huai'an halted in his steps and stared at her as he asked, "Xiao Nuan said you wanted to go out today. Are you going out now?"She gazed at Fu Huai'an, then shook her head and said nothing. Fu Huai'an stuck both hands in his pockets and stared at Yun Liuli, patiently waiting for the young lady to say what she wanted to say.
After a long while, Yun Liuli asked in a low voice, "Are Gu Qingcheng's injuries better now?"
Yun Liuli asked the question very cautiously. She had initially wanted to ask Gu Qingcheng herself, but she had picked up the phone and placed it down many times. In the end, she still didn't have the courage to call him.
When she left, Yun Liuli was forcefully put on the plane by Gu Qingcheng. She had sworn never to be that pet dog who wagged her tail begging for pity before Gu Qingcheng ever again!
But the past few days, at Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an's place… she learned that Fu Huai'an had already started teaching Lin Nuan how to use a gun. Lin Nuan had also learned some defense techniques from You Nainai!
Yun Liuli had acute senses and detected that it was likely because of impending danger. That was also why Gu Qingcheng had sent her to Haicheng, which was relatively safe for the time being.
However, she didn't understand. How come in a time of danger… Fu Huai'an could teach Lin Nuan techniques to protect herself, wishing to overcome the obstacle hand-in-hand, yet Gu Qingcheng only thought of sending her away?Had he done so simply because she was young and thus, in Gu Qingcheng's eyes, couldn't shoulder it together with him?
The tall and broad Fu Huai'an, who was wearing black home clothes, continued standing at the foot of the staircase with his hands in his pockets. His black eyes gazed at Yun Liuli, who was nervously gripping the handrails, as he asked calmly, "Why didn't you call and ask yourself?"
Yun Liuli's clean and pretty eyes turned damp. "Did he send me here because of some sort of danger, or is it because he disdains me as a burden?"
"You should ask Qingcheng this yourself…"
Fu Huai'an knew how Yun Liuli felt about Gu Qingcheng.
The fat cat had gotten chummy with Yun Liuli over the past few days from playing with her. So, upon hearing Yun Liuli's voice, its ears moved a little, and it came out of its nest and stretched lazily before bouncing to the stairs on its stumpy legs. It then sat down beside Fu Huai'an and looked up at Yun Liuli, who was upstairs.
Yun Liuli lowered her long and dense lashes, her vision blurring up as she looked at the British shorthair. "If only he would tell me things! I really envy the relationship between you and Xiao Nuan. At least the two of you face the matter together regardless of what you encounter. Not like Gu Qingcheng, who only sends me away when encountering danger!"
"Xiao Nuan and I are a married couple. Qingcheng and you… are father and daughter. How is that the same?"
"But I never wanted to regard him as a father. I have my own father… Why should he and I be considered father and daughter?" Yun Liuli insisted.
All those years, she had never addressed Gu Qingcheng as her father. She hadn't even addressed him as her uncle. She simply called him Gu Qingcheng!
Because, once Yun Liuli accorded Gu Qingcheng seniority, that would be a curse that bound her for life. She would never be able to break free of that constraint between the two of them!
Fu Huai'an watched as the young lady's body trembled in a bid to hold herself back, stubbornly standing by her point of view. He didn't utter a sound, merely looking at her fixedly…
Yun Liuli looked at the tall and broad Fu Huai'an, feeling immense pressure. She bit her lower lip. "It's not that Gu Qingcheng and my relationship is different from your and Sister Xiao Nuan's! It's that Gu Qingcheng is different from you… he's a coward when it comes to relationship matters!"
After she finished her words, Yun Liuli fled from Fu Huai'an's deep gaze.
The fat cat didn't know what had gotten into Yun Liuli. Why did she run off before she came downstairs to play with it? It cocked its head sideways, watching Yun Liuli as she ran off. Only when she disappeared from sight did it turn its head around and meow endlessly at Fu Huai'an.
The way Fu Huai'an saw it, Gu Qingcheng didn't wish to ruin the life of this young lady who was in the prime of her youth…
Currently, Gu Qingcheng was already 34, but this young lady had just come of age!
The difference in their ages was too great. By the time he became an old man, the young lady would still be in full bloom and vigor…
She hadn't seen much of society and only had Gu Qingcheng in her eyes. But in the future, as the young lady got older, she would have the chance to meet more young and capable lads. He feared that she would then regret having mistaken the feelings of dependency and admiration for Gu Qingcheng after losing her kin as love!
He also feared that the young lady had read too many romance novels, feeling that the dark and dangerous life he led was filled with the warm blood and adventure she had read about in those novels… filled with the excitement and attraction that overwhelmed people. He feared that she would mistake the desire to delve deeper into Gu Qingcheng's world as love for him as a person, being blindly infatuated with him.
Fu Huai'an walked up the stairs…
Yun Liuli didn't understand Gu Qingcheng, but Fu Huai'an did!
Gu Qingcheng's greatest love towards Yun Liuli was restraint!
Restraining his feelings towards her…
Restraining himself so as not to ruin her life in his hands.
How many men of Gu Qingcheng and Fu Huai'an's age could show such restraint when faced with the woman they were fond of?
Moreover, Gu Qingcheng's greatest qualm was that his identity at present was too special. Back when Gu Qingcheng had no one by his side, he did things ruthlessly. But if he had Yun Liuli next to him, he would have a weakness and soft spot!
With Yun Liuli only being Gu Qingcheng's adopted daughter now, she had already been abducted!
Once Yun Liuli became Gu Qingcheng's woman, once they had their own children…
Gu Qingcheng didn't dare think about the consequences!
For people on that path, which of them didn't end up with their families killed and facing a miserable ending?
That was also the reason Fu Huai'an had wanted to extract Tang Zheng, Lu Jinnan, and Gu Qingcheng from that situation back then!
Later, if it weren't because Fu Huai'an got seriously injured and went into a coma, perhaps he would be in Gu Qingcheng's position now!
Then… if Fu Huai'an were in Gu Qingcheng's position, searching into his conscience, would Fu Huai'an still have gotten married to Lin Nuan?
The answer was a resounding no!
