Chapter 510 - Chu Xun Was Also There!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Tuan Tuan suddenly thought of something. He lowered his head and searched his pockets for a good while before looking up at Little Candy and spreading open his palm. “Candy…”

Little Candy was as fond of candy as her name suggested. Today, before Lin Nuan brought Tuan Tuan to visit Little Candy, little Tuan Tuan had crawled onto the dining table and grabbed a piece of candy, planning to give it to Little Candy later.

Little Candy didn’t smile, but she did put down the chicken thigh and reach out an oily hand to take the candy from Tuan Tuan. Tuan Tuan’s soft palms were greasy from the contact, but he didn’t appear disdainful. He merely felt that Little Candy was still rather unhappy and was at a loss as to what to do, so he gazed at Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan didn’t say anything, only reaching out to stroke Tuan Tuan on his little head as she asked You Nainai about Little Candy’s condition…

Little Candy fell on her head. Although the results from the CT scans indicated everything was fine, the doctor suggested that she stay overnight for observation. If nothing happened, Little Candy could go back to dominating the kindergarten as soon as tomorrow.

Lin Nuan thought about it and said to Little Candy, “Tomorrow at the kindergarten, shall we get Tuan Tuan to bring you a big bag of candy?”

Little Candy looked up. Her eyelashes were wet, and her dark eyes appeared particularly bright as she nodded her head vigorously. She then turned to look at Tuan Tuan and said, “You can’t go back on your word!”

Tuan Tuan nodded hard, too, answering in all seriousness, “En!”

You Nainai was staying in the ward to look after Little Candy. Tang Zheng walked Tuan Tuan and Lin Nuan out of the ward, then asked her, “Sis-in-law, are you going to visit the two Fu elders?”

Lin Nuan knew that Old Madam Fu wasn’t fond of her, so there was no need for her to show excessive passion only to be given the cold shoulder…

But she felt that Old Madam Fu was truly fond of Tuan Tuan, and there was a kinship between the two of them; she couldn’t justify it if Tuan Tuan went to the hospital to visit his preschool classmate but chose not to visit Old Madam Fu.

As for Old Master Fu, Lin Nuan had no intention to visit him! Firstly, they had never met. Secondly… Lin Nuan knew that Old Master Fu had been paving the way for Fu Tianci and was making things difficult for Fu Huai’an.

Sensing Lin Nuan’s hesitation, Tang Zheng spoke up again, saying, “Actually, it might be a good idea for you to stay away. Those two elders aren’t easy to deal with. After they got into a brawl at the hospital today, Old Master Fu’s right-hand man, Secretary Song, was almost crying as he pleaded with Old Fu over the phone, asking him to come to the hospital! Old Fu didn’t want to come originally, but other than him, no one could handle this matter, so he had no choice!”

Lin Nuan nodded. The two of them had gotten into a fight, and since Lin Nuan had Tuan Tuan with her, it was all the more reason not to visit.

Actually, Tang Zheng had selfish motives for saying this; the main point was… Chu Xun was also there!

Fu Huai’an was aboveboard, so there wasn’t much to fear. He was just concerned that Lin Nuan might overthink things if she saw her…

Just now, Tang Zheng had let this slip when he didn’t understand what was going on, so now he was racking his brain trying to make up for things, to cover his tracks.

He didn’t know what Old Master Fu and Old Madam Fu were thinking. After they got into a fight at their age… instead of trying to make sure no one else found out, they had called Chu Xun over!

Tang Zheng had heard that, after knowing Secretary Song had called Fu Huai’an over, Old Madam Fu said to get Chu Xun to come as well. Not sure if Old Master Fu was slapped silly from earlier or what, he was ranting… saying to get the President of Haicheng TV Station to come over. He was saying it was best if this spread far and wide and if people came to know what a violent shrew Old Madam Fu was!

Tang Zheng wasn’t there to witness this himself and had merely heard this from Lu Jinnan. Based on Lu Jinnan’s character, he wasn’t one to exaggerate things, so Tang Zheng had no reason not to believe him.

“How about I send Sis-in-law and Tuan Tuan back first?” Tang Zheng accompanied Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan to the elevator, then pressed the button to go down.

“No need for that, Uncle Hu’s the one who brought us here. He’s waiting for us downstairs now.”

“Ding—”

The elevator door opened. Tang Zheng looked like a deer caught in the headlights.

Standing inside were Fu Huai’an and Chu Xun. Chu Xun was saying something to Fu Huai’an and was smiling vibrantly. On the other hand, Fu Huai’an had one hand in his pocket and a hint of a smile on his lips, raising his hand to look at his wristwatch.

Tang Zheng had deliberately tried to get Lin Nuan to leave quickly to avoid her running into Chu Xun and Fu Huai’an. Who knew that they would so coincidentally… bump into one another here?

Tang Zheng was at a loss for words.

“Papa!” Tuan Tuan called out as he ran into the elevator and hugged Fu Huai’an’s leg.

Fu Huai’an’s smile broadened. He reached out to scoop Tuan Tuan up, then asked Lin Nuan, “Why did you bring Tuan Tuan here?”

Tang Zheng had thought that Lin Nuan’s expression would darken, but Lin Nuan merely sauntered into the elevator and replied to Fu Huai’an, “Little Candy is hospitalized. Tuan Tuan wanted to visit her!”

Lin Nuan then looked at Chu Xun, smiling as she nodded. “President Chu!”

Tang Zheng couldn’t bear to look at Chu Xun’s expression, which was terribly amusing to watch.

The instant the elevator door opened, Fu Huai’an lowered his head to look at his watch. The way Chu Xun couldn’t wait to get herself in front of Fu Huai’an was totally…

Chu Xun did feel a little sheepish facing Lin Nuan.

She had forcefully removed Lin Nuan from “A Sunday Date.” Although she had used the excuse that it was the sponsor who specifically asked for Weng Lin, her phone conversation with Old Master Fu was the crux of it all.

Chu Xun knew that Old Master Fu was making use of the fact that Lin Nuan was Fu Huai’an’s weakness and had wanted to use Lin Nuan’s future to threaten Fu Huai’an. Weng Lin was merely a scapegoat.

Now that Chu Xun was straddling two boats—Old Master Fu’s and Old Madam Fu’s—although she felt guilty about it, since things had gotten to this state, she couldn’t very well waste her efforts.

Holding back the guilt she was feeling, Chu Xun asked Tang Zheng and Lin Nuan, “You’re also here to see Old Master Fu and Old Madam Fu?”

Lin Nuan’s gaze swept over Chu Xun. Chu Xun’s words, you’re also…

She made it sound like she and Fu Huai’an were the married couple and were together and that Lin Nuan and Tang Zheng were together!

The smart as a whip Tang Zheng could, of course, sense this as well. People who hung out with Fu Huai’an had one thing in common—they were strongly protective of one of their own!

Now that Lin Nuan was Fu Huai’an’s wife and someone Fu Huai’an regarded as most precious, Tang Zheng naturally feared Lin Nuan might feel uncomfortable about this. He also worried that Fu Huai’an might be sandwiched in the middle, so without waiting for Lin Nuan to speak, Tang Zheng spoke and didn’t spare Chu Xun from the humiliation.

“Look at the way you speak, Miss Chu. Old Fu and Sis-in-law are a married couple. If Sis-in-law truly came here to visit Old Master Fu and Old Madam Fu, she would naturally have done so together with Old Fu. If she didn’t go with him, she naturally wouldn’t be going now. Look at how ugly things have gotten with the two elderly folks. Why would she, as a junior, take Tuan Tuan there? For what? To see what the two old folks look like with injuries on their faces? How embarrassed would they be?”

Chu Xun’s fists were clenched tightly by her sides, and she was almost unable to maintain the smile on her face.

Lin Nuan could tell from Tang Zheng’s words that Old Master Fu and Old Madam Fu had gotten into a fight, and they even got injured!
