Mr Fu, I Really Love You
chapter-870

Lu Jinnan's phone call…

He must have called to ask Lin Nuan if she'd convinced Fu Huai'an not to go and rescue them.

Lin Nuan sat up from Fu Huai'an's arms. Her eyes were as swollen as walnuts as she looked at Fu Huai'an. "Lu Jinnan wants to ask me if I managed to convince you not to go and rescue them…"

Fu Huai'an turned off Lin Nuan's phone and placed it in his pocket. "He'll know the answer to that!"

Lin Nuan looked at Fu Huai'an and didn't say a word. She… knew the answer too!

Fu Huai'an leaned against the wall with one knee bent. With an elbow on his knee, he gently caressed Lin Nuan's long hair. "Don't worry, I'll make sure I don't come to harm. I promise you that I'll come back safe!"

Previously, Fu Huai'an promised her that he wouldn't put himself in danger, but he still did…

Lin Nuan didn't say that out loud. Since Fu Huai'an was definitely going to save them, she wanted him to come home in one piece. Saying it out loud would bring him bad luck!

As silence filled the room, even the air seemed humid.

After taking a deep breath, Lin Nuan asked, "If you're going to save them, why don't you want the soldiers in the army to help? There'll be strength in numbers. If you make this trip alone, how do you expect me to believe that you'll come back safe?"

"We'll become huge targets if there are too many people! It'll only result in needless trouble and sacrifices!" Fu Huai'an adjusted his sitting position and held Lin Nuan's shoulders, bringing her into his arms. "If I go alone, I won't be as conspicuous, and there won't be any burdens…"

Lin Nuan thought about the young colonel from earlier today. She didn't think that Fu Huai'an was being full of himself.

If Fu Huai'an really didn't have the ability to rescue them on his own, the army probably wouldn't have allowed him to go alone.

But Fu Huai'an's ability was one thing, and a lack of backup was another thing altogether. How was he going to rescue them on his own? What if he just so happened to need backup? Although there'd be many people, it wouldn't hurt to have reinforcements!

"Xiao Nuan, this is the issue with working as a team! When I went to Iraq that year, I bumped into Xing Feng and his team! They all wanted me to join them to rescue people, but the higher-ups didn't agree. The reason is that all the members of every team each have their own positions. Soldiers are separated into teams the moment they join the army, and hence they work together perfectly. If I were to have joined them, it would have been very easy for things to go wrong since they didn't understand how I did things, which could have brought the whole team down! That's why I don't want to carry out the rescue mission in a group!"

Fu Huai'an explained things to Lin Nuan in great detail.

Lin Nuan wanted to ask Fu Huai'an why he and Xing Feng had worked together to save them back then if that were the case, but she kept the question to herself.

Lin Nuan understood what Fu Huai'an meant. No one wanted Fu Huai'an to come back safely more than her. It was hard for her to counter since she didn't have experience in such areas.

"Then what about Mu Taotao and the bespectacled guy from the TV station? Your teams… can't they work together with you?" Lin Nuan asked.

When Lin Nuan previously chatted with Yun Liuli, Yun Liuli brought up the fact that Gu Qingcheng's most outstanding teams were trained by Fu Huai'an…

"They have to stay behind to protect Yun Liuli!" Fu Huai'an explained to Lin Nuan. "Old Gu has already been implicated. I can't have a situation where I can't even protect Yun Liuli for him!"

Lin Nuan became silent after Fu Huai'an brought up Gu Qingcheng.

Although she didn't know if Gu Qingcheng and Yun Liuli were in a relationship, it was undeniable that Yun Liuli was very important to him…

Otherwise, Gu Qingcheng wouldn't have risked his life to rescue Yun Liuli after she was kidnapped.

Since it was Gu Qingcheng and Yun Liuli they were talking about, they indeed couldn't get help from the teams.

"Tuan Tuan… You said that you were going to take him to his maternal uncle's place?" Lin Nuan asked again.

Fu Huai'an nodded. "Cen Mo was adopted by the Cen family. He's Lu Xiangsi's older brother…"

That came as a complete surprise to Lin Nuan. She was slightly stunned for a moment before she collected herself…

Lin Nuan suddenly recalled how Lin Chen pressed Cen Mo against the wall after he tried to hit her back at the hospital. The surname he used to address Cen Mo indeed seemed to be Lu!

Lin Nuan was worried about Song Yao at that moment and didn't notice it. She didn't ask about it either.

"Does Cen Mo know?" Lin Nuan asked.

Fu Huai'an shook his head.

Since he made the decision back then to regard Tuan Tuan as his own son, he never planned to make Tuan Tuan's identity known to the public.

Even if they didn't focus on whether or not Tuan Tuan grew up by Fu Huai'an's side, if they looked at his relationship with his blood relatives…

Cen Mo was Tuan Tuan's maternal uncle, while Fu Huai'an was Tuan Tuan's paternal uncle. The two of them had the same blood relationship with Tuan Tuan!

Furthermore, Cen Mo's relationships with the people around him were in a mess back then. Even if he knew that Tuan Tuan was his nephew, what could he do?

Fu Huai'an was already a force to be reckoned with after he escaped from that dangerous world. Meanwhile, Cen Mo's relationships with the people around him were complex and strained.

Back then, Cen Mo probably wouldn't have dared to take in Tuan Tuan even if Fu Huai'an let him do so!

So, to avoid creating any new problems, Fu Huai'an chose to keep Tuan Tuan's identity a secret…

After remaining silent for a moment, Lin Nuan looked up at Fu Huai'an and said, "Take me, Yun Liuli, and Tuan Tuan to the army! That way, you can bring the people assigned to protect Yun Liuli with you as backup! If it's hard for you to bring this up to the army, I'll do it!"

Fu Huai'an was stunned…

"This is my only condition for agreeing to let you go and rescue them!" Lin Nuan's expression was firm, and she didn't seem to be joking. "Otherwise… I won't agree! If you insist on carrying out the mission alone…"

Lin Nuan paused, her eyes turning even redder. She seemed to make up her mind before she continued, "Fu Huai'an… we'll get a divorce!"

Ever since Lin Nuan got married to Fu Huai'an, she never thought she'd have to bring up the idea of getting a divorce.

She really loved Fu Huai'an, and so she never thought she would have to divorce him.

Saying the word "divorce" hurt Lin Nuan until her internal organs were in great pain. Tears rolled down her cheeks.

She held back her sobs and wiped her tears with the back of her hand as she tried to calm herself down. Her eyes were as red as a bunny's. "You said before that if I love you… even your life belongs to me! You know how much I love you! Your life is mine… so I have the final say on what happens to it! But time and time again, you risk your life and put yourself in danger!"

"I promise!" Fu Huai'an agreed before Lin Nuan made any more statements that would break her heart.

He hadn't considered sending Yun Liuli to the army because he had asked her about it… and she wasn't willing to do that! And the military definitely wouldn't allow Lin Nuan to bring a child with her.

But now that Lin Nuan had said all that, Fu Huai'an had no excuse for turning down her request.

Lin Nuan stared at Fu Huai'an and bit her bottom lip as she hugged his slender waist and cried in his arms…
