Chapter 719: Easier for You to Check Up on Me!

It was tranquil in the room, and Lin Nuan could hear the sound of Fu Huai’an’s steady breathing. The atmosphere was great for sleeping, but she didn’t feel sleepy at all.

The moon shone through the clouds. The cold and bright rays of light shone through the open curtains and onto the bed.

Lin Nuan’s back was pressed closely against Fu Huai’an’s chest. She could feel his strong heartbeat, and her heart ached…

“I know that Song Yao is wrong, but I can’t help but worry about her. I really regret what I did. I should have slapped her when we met up with her and Cen Mo so that she would come to her senses and stop getting involved with him!”

Fu Huai’an hugged her even tighter and said in a deep voice, “Song Yao is your friend, sure, but you can’t make decisions about her life for her. She chose this life herself! She would only continue going down the wrong path after making that first wrong move. Even if you really slapped her back then, she might not have come to her senses! What’s more likely… is that your friend doesn’t realize that what she’s doing is wrong!”

Fu Huai’an spoke from the perspective of an outsider, and what he said was pertinent.

Lin Nuan turned around and buried her face into Fu Huai’an’s chest. She felt awful.

“But you’ll always incur gains and losses from something. Even if she can no longer establish herself in the entertainment industry, she might just gain other unexpected things…” Fu Huai’an hugged the woman in his arms tightly.

Lin Nuan closed her eyes and felt the vibration of Fu Huai’an’s chest when he spoke. She nodded. “Go to sleep!”

She thought Song Yao would be in the news for a while, but the next day, the news of the Best Actress Award winner Zhang Ruomin, who had disappeared for many years, announcing her comeback with a TD watch endorsement made the headlines instead.

Lin Nuan saw the news on her phone while brushing her teeth. She frowned and stared at the screen while holding her foam-covered toothbrush.

Lin Nuan still remembered Zhang Ruomin. The actress, who had declared to the public that she didn’t believe in marriage, had confessed to Fu Huai’an during a live broadcast of an awards show. She didn’t get a response in the end and disappeared from the public eye from then on.

Someone once said that Zhang Ruomin couldn’t take the blow and decided to take a break from filming and travel the world to heal her broken heart.

Lin Nuan scrolled down to see Zhang Ruomin’s interview…

When one reporter asked Zhang Ruomin where she had been over the past year, she answered honestly, saying that she had visited the various mountains and rivers in China to get over her emotional pain. She also felt that her reckless confession and proposal on that awards show was too hasty!

During this period, Zhang Ruomin did some self-reflection and picked out scripts that would allow her to challenge herself. This time, she had picked out a script that she liked and took on the TD watch endorsement, deciding to return to the industry.

Another reporter asked her if she knew that Fu Huai’an was going to marry the host Lin Nuan, then asked her about her thoughts on the matter!

Zhang Ruomin wasn’t unhappy at that question. Instead, she generously answered that she liked Fu Huai’an very, very much, but that she would still congratulate him on marrying his true love…

She said that she had read Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s love story while she was traveling and admired Lin Nuan’s bravery. Regardless of why they separated after having a child together, it was really great for the child that they got back together again!

She had also finally figured out why Fu Huai’an didn’t accept her back then. If it was because he already had someone he loved, then she would accept that! Zhang Ruomin congratulated Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan and expressed her interest in going on Lin Nuan’s show.

Zhang Ruomin’s easygoing attitude received lots of praise from netizens. They said that Best Actresses would always remain Best Actresses, even after a year’s break.

Lin Nuan scrolled down further. The news of Zhang Ruomin congratulating Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan on their marriage had caused the news on Song Yao to receive less attention…

Lin Nuan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although Song Yao had received the backlash she deserved after the incident went public, with news of Zhang Ruomin’s comeback receiving more coverage, people would now pay less attention to Song Yao.

After rinsing her mouth and wiping away the foam from the corners, Lin Nuan tried to call Song Yao again.

This time, Lin Nuan’s call actually managed to get through.

Hearing the dial tone from the other end of the line, Lin Nuan stopped leaning against the sink and stood upright. She felt somewhat nervous.

When the call got through, the smile in Song Yao’s clear voice could be heard. “I had just switched on my phone when you called…”

Lin Nuan furrowed her brows upon hearing the cheerfulness in Song Yao’s voice. She didn’t know if Song Yao was pretending to sound relaxed.

“Don’t worry. I won’t be brought down by news like this!” Song Yao said in a relieved tone, “Back then, Cen Mo told me Cai Jingyao had ulterior motives, and I didn’t believe him. But now… I believe him! Through this incident, I managed to see a person’s true colors. That’s better than foolishly treating her as my friend for my whole life!”

“Song Yao, is it worth it to sacrifice your future just to see a person’s true colors?” Lin Nuan asked.

Song Yao didn’t say a word.

“Are you really content on being treated like a mistress for the sake of being together with Cen Mo? I’m not against your view on relationships, but if Cen Mo really loves you, shouldn’t he get together with you after taking care of his relationships with the people around him? That’s the respect that he should show you and his fiancée!”

“Nuan Nuan, Cen Mo has already explained to his fiancée!” There was a slight smile in Song Yao’s voice. “Cen Mo said that the person he’s loved all along is me! I heard it with my own ears! The reason Cen Mo didn’t make it public back then… was because he was worried his fiancée would hurt me. He’s decided to tell her now because he has the ability to protect me!”

Lin Nuan furrowed her brows. Was Song Yao neglecting her career for the sake of love? Was Cen Mo really that important to her?

Seeing that Lin Nuan didn’t respond, Song Yao continued, “Don’t worry, Cen Mo will resolve all this! He told me not to worry…”

Now that things had come to this, Lin Nuan didn’t know what could be done to resolve it all.

“I hope Xiaonian isn’t angry over me going behind her back and keeping in touch with Cai Jingyao…” Song Yao said softly.

Lin Nuan lowered her thick and long eyelashes. “She’s only worried about you, and only concerned with criticizing Cai Jingyao.”

Song Yao was touched to hear that. Another incoming call came in, and Song Yao saw that it was from Bai Xiaonian. She ended the call with Lin Nuan and answered Bai Xiaonian’s call.

Lin Nuan placed her phone aside and collected water with her hands to rinse her face. As she sat in front of the vanity and took out her skincare products, she thought about what Song Yao said…

She found that she, like Song Yao, chose to use more expensive skincare products as she got older. Although she hadn’t developed wrinkles at the corners of her eyes yet and her skin was still relatively firm, she had already started to slow down her skin’s aging process with cosmetics!

It was every woman’s dream to age gracefully. Lin Nuan was no immortal, and she would occasionally panic over a small wrinkle that formed due to her staying up late at night. She would furiously apply essence to her face and use face masks, and she would also check the social media platforms of beauty gurus to see what products would best reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

In the past, Lin Nuan could walk out the door after washing her face and applying some baby moisturizer. But now… she looked at the array of beautiful jars and bottles set in front of the vanity mirror and felt a twinge of melancholy.

After applying her skincare products, Lin Nuan got up and went to Tuan Tuan’s room to wake him up. She didn’t expect the tiny child to have already gotten up and showered. He was now changing clothes while sitting on the bed.

When Lin Nuan entered the room, the tiny child had just slipped his sweater over his head and pulled down hard on it to let his head poke through.

As soon as he saw Lin Nuan, Tuan Tuan broke into a huge smile. Still not properly dressed, he slid off the bed and ran over to Lin Nuan to hug her legs. He rubbed his soft, chubby face against them and looked up at Lin Nuan. “Mama!”

Lin Nuan bent down in front of the tiny child and helped him to straighten out his sleeves. “Tuan Tuan is up so early today!”

The tiny child nodded and patted his little stomach. He said cutely to Lin Nuan, “Hungry…”

On the way back home yesterday, Tuan Tuan had only eaten a tiny snack before falling asleep, and he had only just woken up now. Of course he would be hungry!

“Papa should have prepared breakfast already! Mama will bring you downstairs to eat!”

Lin Nuan carried Tuan Tuan downstairs and saw that You Nainai was here too. On the table, there was some breakfast that You Nainai had bought. Some of the food was still in the takeout containers.

You Nainai walked out of the kitchen with cutlery in hand. She raised her head to see Lin Nuan carrying Tuan Tuan downstairs and said, “I’m not that good at preparing breakfast, and I saw that you and Tuan Tuan were still in bed, so I went out to get some food.”

Lin Nuan saw no sign of Fu Huai’an and asked, “Where’s Huai’an?”

“Sir Fu said there’s some stuff he has to prepare for the wedding, so he’s going to be out with Lu Jinnan for the next two days. He saw that you were still sound asleep in the morning, so he didn’t disturb you. Instead, he called me over to keep you company!” You Nainai said to Lin Nuan.

This was what Fu Huai’an had instructed You Nainai to say.

Stuff to prepare for the wedding?

Lin Nuan didn’t believe that. Everything concerning their wedding had been proceeding as planned. What required Fu Huai’an and Lu Jinnan to leave for two days to prepare?

Lin Nuan turned to look at Tuan Tuan’s big and bright eyes. She didn’t ask You Nainai any further and said to Tuan Tuan, “Papa isn’t around today, so Tuan Tuan can drink a huge glass of orange juice!”

Tuan Tuan’s eyes lit up. He wrapped his chubby arms around Lin Nuan’s neck and rubbed his soft and chubby face against it. “Mama is the best!”

Looking at Tuan Tuan, You Nainai thought about her Little Candy back at home and felt sad…

Little Candy’s personality wasn’t like that of a four- or five-year-old girl at all. She was basically a little thug! It was seemingly because she didn’t have a father and had a slightly weird relationship with You Nainai.

If only Little Candy were as cute as Tuan Tuan!

After getting Tuan Tuan settled down for breakfast, Lin Nuan gave Fu Huai’an a call.

“You’re up…” Fu Huai’an’s voice was gentle.

“Nainai said you’re going to leave with Lu Jinnan for two days to prepare stuff for the wedding. What are you preparing?” Lin Nuan didn’t hide her concern towards Fu Huai’an at all.

“It’s a secret! It’s a surprise I’m preparing for you!”

Fu Huai’an’s mellow and deep voice sounded mature and powerful, and one could hear the faint laughter and mystery behind it.

Lin Nuan felt relieved and continued asking him, “Since you’re leaving for two days, don’t tell me you’re going overseas?”

On the other end of the line, Fu Huai’an paused before replying, “Are you worried?”

After what happened in Dubai and Venice, Lin Nuan always felt that other countries were full of danger.

“Relax, I’ll be back very, very soon…”

Lin Nuan lowered her eyes. “Then, you have to keep in touch with me at all times and let me know where you are!”

“Okay, I’ll send my location to you at all times!” Fu Huai’an laughed as he continued, “Easier for you to check up on me!”

Lin Nuan’s ears flushed, and she tucked her hair behind her ears. “There’s no need for that. I just need to know that you’re safe and contactable.”

“Okay, don’t worry! The flight to France is ten hours long, though, and I won’t be able to contact you on the plane. I’ll call you when I land!”

France…

Lin Nuan nodded. “Okay! Have a safe flight!”

After hanging up, Lin Nuan ate breakfast with Tuan Tuan and got him on the school bus. She frowned as she stood at the door, the cold wind enough to make a person shiver. She wondered if Fu Huai’an and Lu Jinnan going to France had anything to do with Gu Qingcheng.

Although Fu Huai’an sounded relaxed, his identity really did make Lin Nuan anxious. She was constantly afraid his identity would be exposed, or that he would secretly do dangerous things without her knowledge.

Lin Nuan opened her contacts and found Tang Zheng’s number, but she was a little hesitant when she was about to call him.

It wasn’t a good idea to ask Fu Huai’an’s friends where he had gone!

Lin Nuan closed her phone and placed it in her pocket. She then wrapped her coat around herself tightly and entered the house.

Her and Fu Huai’an’s wedding was right around the corner, so Fu Huai’an shouldn’t be putting himself in danger. She was just overthinking things.

Besides, Fu Huai’an had safely returned home after someone came to Haicheng to test him and when he was asked to go to the army headquarters… There shouldn’t be anyone suspicious of him being Mr. Moral.

Lin Nuan smiled and tried to keep her spirits up. She willed herself to relax and stop being so nervous.

In the afternoon, Lin Nuan had to film a variety show with the cast of “The Exorcist.” Fang Yan arrived at the house much earlier to pick up Lin Nuan and You Nainai.

On the way there, Fang Yan looked at Lin Nuan, who was sitting in the backseat, and said, “This program has relatively higher viewership ratings. It’s an outdoor reality TV show, and Jinjiang TV Station acquired the filming rights from overseas. It’s a little physically demanding. Have you been working out recently?”

Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.

Where would she find the time to train?

Sparks would fly so long as she was with Fu Huai’an!

“Your expression says it all! I was hoping your husband would train you, but I guess it’s not working! If you run out of stamina during today’s filming, then I’ll hire a personal trainer for you!” Fang Yan’s eyes landed on You Nainai, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. “Nainai, why don’t you do it?”

You Nainai paused. “Me?”

“Look at your figure. You definitely look slim and toned. And your stamina… you’re the best person for the job!”

“I think Sir Fu would be more suitable! We’re all trained by him!” You Nainai stuttered as she replied.

“Don’t joke around…” Fang Yan glanced behind at Lin Nuan, whose ears were now flushed red. She couldn’t hold back her smile. “She and her husband definitely can’t resist each other when they train together, and their stamina training becomes something else. Am I right, Nuan Nuan?”

“Please keep your eyes on the road Sister Yan!” Lin Nuan reminded. She looked down and focused on scrolling through her phone, acting as if something had suddenly come up.
