Lin Nuan paused for a moment and said, “There’s a cafe at the west intersection of the broadcast building and Wanshou Road. Mr. Lu, you may wait for me there. I’ll be there shortly.”

“Okay!”

…

Two people who hated each other’s guts were to meet each other in a cafe.

Lin Nuan left the broadcast building. Upon arriving, she folded her umbrella and left it on the umbrella rack outside the entrance of the cafe. Clutching her phone in her hand, she pushed the door open and walked in.

Just as she was standing at the entrance scanning the area for Lu Jinnan, his eyes met hers. He beckoned to her and smiled knowingly as she walked towards him.

There was a cup of steaming hot black coffee on the table opposite Lu Jinnan. Lin Nuan sensed that Lu Jinnan probably intended to have a friendly conversation with her. She sat down and placed her bag beside her.

As they sat at the smoking area just beside the cafe windows, Lin Nuan could clearly see the storm brewing outside.

She placed her phone gently on her lap and held the coffee cup in one hand. “May I know why Mr. Lu wishes to speak to me?” she asked politely.

Lu Jinnan didn’t answer. He tapped his cigarette ashes and stared intently at the young lady sitting in front of him from head to toe amid the white smoke.

She was young and child-like with a tinge of sophistication. She wasn’t a stunning beauty, but she had looks that were easy on the eye. Her features were awfully delicate and beautiful, and she was exceptionally fair. Her eyes were clear and alluring.

As was his usual practice, Lu Jinnan would estimate how much Lin Nuan was worth before making his move. He took out his checkbook and a pen from his suit pocket. “Lin Nuan, I won’t beat around the bush and get straight to the point. We both know Fu likes you, tell me your price… As long as it’s not too excessive, I will give it to you!”

Lin Nuan glanced at the checkbook in Lu Jinnan’s hands. Her mind stopped whirling momentarily, and she looked at Lu Jinnan. “Are you… are you asking me to leave Fu Huai’an?”

What in the world was this?

She remembered seeing scenes like this in television dramas, where the male lead’s mother would approach the female lead in private and offer her a sum of money if she would leave her son.

Bai Xiaonian had even once joked that if this were to happen to her one day, she would definitely demand an exorbitant sum, take the check, and live a carefree life. She wouldn’t be as silly as the female lead to reject the offer and suffer for a man.

Yet, it wasn’t Bai Xiaonian but Lin Nuan who met with this offer instead.

What struck Lin Nuan as odd was the person who was making the offer!

Who did Lu Jinnan think he was and was he even in an appropriate position to make this offer? He was just a friend! It was too much!

Was it even possible that… Lu Jinnan was in love with Fu Huai’an?

Lu Jinnan put down his pen and took a puff of his cigarette. “I’m asking the opposite. I wouldn’t stab my friend in the back! Lin Nuan, I would like you to stay by Fu’s side and be his woman. But that’s it, only his woman and nothing more… Do you get what I mean?”

Her phone vibrated. Lin Nuan took a look and ended the call from Bai Xiaonian. She lowered her head and sent Bai Xiaonian a message telling her not to wait for her. Then she raised her head and gazed at Lu Jinnan with her dark eyes…

Lu Jinnan was at the teahouse earlier, and he had been listening outside the room. He recalled how Chu Xun’s father had yelled at Fu Huai’an and the things he had said. Lu Jinnan’s heart hardened, and he added, “Fu has been through a lot to get to where he is today. I can’t stand by and watch him throw his future away. You should know who Chu Xun is, the president of Haicheng TV station. Fu needs the help of her family…”
