Chapter 488 - Truly Detailed

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Regarding these two bodyguards, Auntie Li had already called Fu Huai’an and told him they were sent by Secretary Song to place by Fu Tianci’s side…

Fu Huai’an also unbuckled his seatbelt and took out his phone from the storage box, slipping it into his pocket. “These two were sent to protect, as well as keep an eye on, Fu Tianci.”

Lin Nuan nodded her head in realization. Perhaps Fu Huai’an’s maternal grandfather worried that crooks might have designs on Fu Tianci with his sudden increase in popularity, hence the arrangement…

At this time, the two little ones, Tuan Tuan and Little Candy, were knelt and leaning against the back of the sofa. They were staring at the two bodyguards through the French windows, their noses stuck to the glass.

Little Candy’s chubby little face was squashed out of shape, her eyes shining as she gasped and said, “How terrific, the two door gods at your house haven’t moved at all for so long!”

Tuan Tuan didn’t know what to say…

Little Candy remembered her granny would stick the figures of two people on their door at Chinese New Year; she said they were called door gods, and they were there to protect the family from harm and keep them safe.

She felt that Tuan Tuan’s house was formidable—they actually had door gods before it was Chinese New Year, and furthermore, they were alive door gods!

But… these two door gods were different from the ones in the painting.

Little Candy silently decided to tell her granny when she got home that door gods were dressed in black.

The two bodyguards outside the door were uncomfortable from all the staring by those two little kids; however, they had no choice but to keep standing straight…

Perhaps because they were being watched, the two bodyguards felt like they were being monitored, and neither of them said a word that day.

Tuan Tuan saw a car parked at the entrance; when the car headlights were turned off, Tuan Tuan saw that it was Lin Nuan in the front passenger seat. He jumped up and slid right off the sofa, slipping into his little superman slippers and bouncing towards the door.

Little Candy turned around and saw Tuan Tuan, so she followed suit. “Tuan Tuan, wait for me! I also want to play with the door gods!”

Auntie Li was preparing dinner in the kitchen and didn’t notice that Tuan Tuan had already run to the entryway.

Tuan Tuan supported one hand against the wall, while the other reached out. Standing on tiptoes, and with great effort, he managed to pull down the door handle, slowly pulling open the door…

Tuan Tuan let go of the door handle; by the time he came out from behind the door, Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an had already gotten out of the car.

“Papa! Mama!”

Tuan Tuan shouted out to Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an loudly, speedily running towards them…

Little Candy followed behind and was about to say “let’s play together!” to the so-called door gods when she saw Tuan Tuan running towards the gate.

Little Candy stood rooted, watching as Tuan Tuan pulled open the gate and ran quickly. In an instant, he was lifted high up in the air by Fu Huai’an; even his slippers had slipped off his feet and fallen on the ground.

Lin Nuan, who was standing by the side, got a fright and asked Fu Huai’an to lower the kid. She bent over to pick up Tuan Tuan’s slippers, then, still worried, raised her hand and made a protective gesture.

The laughter spread to the entire area, which was quiet before this. Tuan Tuan twisted his little body and reached out a hand to Lin Nuan while he was still in Fu Huai’an’s arms, and he kept calling out Mama…

“Stop fooling around!” Fu Huai’an smacked Tuan Tuan on his little bottom. “Mama is tired from working today, and you’re too fat, so Mama can’t lift you!”

“Rubbish! Our Tuan Tuan isn’t fat! Let Mama hug you…” Lin Nuan reached out her arms to Tuan Tuan. Tuan Tuan happily circled his arms around Lin Nuan’s neck, resting his little face on Lin Nuan’s shoulder like a little octopus, his two little feet clad in Captain America long socks happily swinging by Lin Nuan’s sides.

Fu Huai’an smiled, exasperated, as he took Tuan Tuan’s little slippers from Lin Nuan’s hands.

Little Candy was standing at the door, her eyes a little reddened as she stared at the blissful Tuan Tuan, full of envy…

Tuan Tuan was so blissful! He had such a handsome Papa and such a gentle Mama!

No one had ever lifted her up like that; Granny was advanced in age and didn’t have the energy to lift her, while her mama only whacked her with slippers and had never hugged her so gently before.

Little Candy rubbed her eyes with the backs of her hands, causing those two “door gods” to look towards the little one.

Lin Nuan carried Tuan Tuan and entered the gates opened by Fu Huai’an. Then she saw the Little Candy dressed in a girl’s skirted school uniform over a pair of boy’s trouser school uniform, standing at the entrance.

Under the warm lighting of the doorway, the short-haired Little Candy had gathered her hair up into a tiny ponytail with a rubber band, her chubby little face fair and tender, her eyes large like black grapes.

“Little Candy? Why are you here? Are you here with Uncle Tang?” Lin Nuan asked the little girl in a gentle voice.

Little Candy got her spirits up and shook her head, then cheerfully revealed a smile at Lin Nuan. She wanted to get married to Tuan Tuan, so she had to make Tuan Tuan’s mother like her! On the tv drama that she had watched with her granny, they said that daughters-in-law must get into the good books of their mothers-in-law!

Hence, Little Candy answered in a soft and cute voice, “Mama said Uncle Tang was resorting to sophistry in trying to disguise his indecisiveness as ‘devising strategies and biding his time.’ Mama called him shameless, then proceeded to bash him up till he bled. Mama has sent Uncle Tang to the hospital!”

Fu Huai’an was rendered speechless.

Little Candy’s reply was truly detailed…

Upon hearing Lin Nuan’s voice, Auntie Li hurriedly came out from the kitchen and smiled as she wiped her hands on her apron. “Sir and Madam, you’re back! It’s like this… Little Candy’s mother sent Mr. Tang to the hospital, and Mr. Tang told me to bring Little Candy back first, saying that he would pick up the kid later tonight!”

Auntie Li was clear about the relationship between Tang Zheng and Fu Huai’an, so she brought Little Candy back to Tianfu Bay.

“Dinner is prepared, the soup is still in the pot. Sir and Madam, you can start to eat once you’ve changed out of your clothes!” Auntie Li hurriedly shuffled back into the kitchen when she finished saying those words.

Lin Nuan was stunned by what Little Candy said about how Uncle Tang was bashed up by her mother…

Seeing the stunned look on Lin Nuan’s face, Fu Huai’an held Lin Nuan’s waist with one hand and said as they walked in, “They’ve always gotten along this way, there’s no need to be alarmed!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Little Candy had successfully converted into a fan of Fu Huai’an’s; she felt that Tuan Tuan’s father’s voice was so so so pleasant-sounding!

Fu Huai’an gazed at the sparkly-eyed Little Candy, reaching out a hand to stroke the little one on her head; it was truly hard on the kid to have parents like Tang Zheng and You Nainai!

Little Candy was elated, grabbing Fu Huai’an’s large hand with her two chubby little hands with a vibrant smile on her face; she held it carefully in her palms, sighing in her heart… Tuan Tuan’s father’s fingers were so thick! And so warm, unlike her mother’s slim and cold fingers.

Fu Huai’an lowered his head and smiled at Little Candy, then walked with her into the house, her hand in his.

“Where’s Fu Tianci?” Fu Huai’an asked Auntie Li.

“I know!” Little Candy’s hand shot up in the air, then, like a sneaky little thief, she said in a lowered voice, “I sneaked upstairs to take a look, Big Brother is in his room secretly playing games!”
