Lin Nuan’s lips parted but no sound came out. That afternoon, after seeing the photos of Fu Huai’an with the female celebrity Su Manman, she didn’t know what outcome she’d end up having with Fu Huai’an. She was afraid that if she answered Tuan Tuan, how would Fu Huai’an’s wife interact with Tuan Tuan in the future…

“Mama…”

Lin Nuan didn’t respond, so Tuan Tuan called out again, to test her response.

Eventually, she surrendered under the child’s anticipating and scared gaze. Lin Nuan pursed her lips and answered, “En?”

Lin Nuan crumpled the tissue she used to wipe Tuan Tuan’s fringe into a ball and her long fingers fiddled with the child’s wet strands of hair.

“Can I hug you?” Tuan Tuan asked softly, as though he was afraid that Lin Nuan would not agree, he reached out a short chubby finger and looked at her in anticipation, saying, “Just for a little while…”

Lin Nuan’s finger poked Tuan Tuan’s chubby face, and she brought Tuan Tuan into her arms with a slight smile.

The small child hugged Lin Nuan’s neck with his arms and pressed his pink face onto Lin Nuan’s shoulder, his eyes suddenly wet, looking like he was about to cry.

Sensing the change in Tuan Tuan’s emotions, Lin Nuan softly asked, “Tuan Tuan, do you want to eat cake?”

Tuan Tuan heard Lin Nuan’s soft voice and forced his tears back, nodding his head.

Tuan Tuan always liked sweet foods like cake, but Fu Huai’an strictly controlled Tuan Tuan’s sweets intake. He always said that every time Tuan Tuan did a check-up he would be overweight…

Lin Nuan stood up and Tuan Tuan acted like a little tail, following behind her step by step.

She placed the cake and her phone on the dining table, opening the cake’s packaging as she looked at Tuan Tuan’s work of art, a few colorful circles. Lin Nuan totally couldn’t tell what it was…

Seeing that Lin Nuan was interested in his drawing, Tuan Tuan supported himself on the dining chair and climbed up.

“This is Mama…” Tuan Tuan’s chubby hand pointed to the pink circle, excitedly introducing it to Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan looked at it seriously and even though she couldn’t tell how it looked like her, she still nodded and praised him, saying, “En… You drew well!”

Tuan Tuan was a little proud and pointed to the small circle in the middle, saying, “This is Tuan Tuan…”

His small hand moved to the black circle beside it and said, “This is Papa!”

The moment the words Papa left Tuan Tuan’s mouth, Lin Nuan’s phone on the dining table rang and the screen showed Fu Huai’an’s name.

Tuan Tuan was still young and couldn’t recognize a lot of words, but he distinctly remembered Fu Huai’an’s name. He looked towards Lin Nuan excitedly, saying, “It’s Papa!”

Too embarrassed to ignore Fu Huai’an’s call in front of the child, Lin Nuan picked up her phone and asked Tuan Tuan, “Do you want to talk to Papa?”

Tuan Tuan nodded obediently, saying, “Yes!”

Once she picked up the call, Lin Nuan passed the phone to Tuan Tuan, the child’s small hands were too small to hold on to the phone so he hugged Lin Nuan’s arm and called at the phone sweetly, “Papa, are you back?”

“En, let your Mama come to the phone.”

Fu Huai’an’s deep voice entered Lin Nuan’s ears and she guessed that Fu Huai’an had seen through her attempt at escaping. Lin Nuan cleared her throat and under Tuan Tuan’s wide-eyed gaze, she straightened up and acted casual as she took over the phone, asking, “Is there anything you want, Mr. Fu?”

Lin Nuan purposely pulled the distance between her and Fu Huai’an apart with the term. Fu Huai’an was no longer a clueless young boy; he could clearly understand.

“I’m picking Tuan Tuan up tonight.”

Fu Huai’an’s attractive voice traveled from the other end of the line and said that sentence, mysteriously stirring up the peace in Lin Nuan’s heart.
