Chapter 755 - Don’t Talk Nonsense!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing Su Manman’s smile fade, Xie Jingqian leisurely leaned against the back of the sofa, a smile in her mellow voice. “Perhaps this might have already made it on the news!”

The well-informed Fang Yan had received news of this a few days ago. She guessed that the gentle and beautiful lady was probably the female lead in Shi Hanchu’s current movie!

“Nope!” Xu Wanwan had already swiftly started searching for such news on her phone.

How swiftly Xu Wanwan had acted!

“Aiyah! It’s true!” Xu Wanwan found the news and was reading out the headline loudly. “Astonishing news! Best Actor Shi and the female lead quietly left the celebratory function after the opening ceremony! Suspected of heading to Best Actor Shi’s condo! Affectionate lovers?”

Su Manman’s smile dimmed, and she grabbed her shoulder bag. “Nuan Nuan, I’ll get going first! I’ll come back again tomorrow!”

Xu Wanwan covered her mouth with her hand, realizing that she probably shot her mouth off by reading out the headline.

“Miss Fu, please see yourself out, I won’t be sending you off!” Xie Jingqian flashed a victorious smile.

Lin Nuan glared at Xie Jingqian, to which Xie Jingqian shrugged her shoulders and feigned innocence. “I merely told the truth! I didn’t make anything up…”

Seeing Su Manman leaving angrily, Lin Nuan felt mentally tired as she walked Su Manman downstairs. “Those headlines are designed to grab attention!”

“I know!” Su Manman pulled open the car door to her sports car and was about to get into it when she was held back by the wrist by Lin Nuan.

“You drank! I’ll get the chauffeur to send you!”

By then, You Nainai had already asked a servant to look for Uncle Hu to send Su Manman.

But of course, Su Manman didn’t have the patience to wait for the chauffeur. She pried away Lin Nuan’s hand and got into her car, closing the car door right after she did. She looked up at Lin Nuan and said, “That woman is different, Nuan Nuan. If I lose to that woman, Shi Hanchu and I will miss each other for good in this lifetime! Help me thank Xie Qingqian, that woman!”

She then left in her sports car.

“Manman!” Lin Nuan shouted after her but didn’t manage to stop her. She turned around and said to You Nainai, “Get someone to follow her and make sure she doesn’t get into an accident!”

You Nainai instructed the bodyguards to follow Su Manman’s car, then turned back to see the frowning Lin Nuan standing at the door. She handed Lin Nuan a jacket, then sighed and said, “It must be tiring for you to have two energetic friends who, on top of that, can’t get along with each other!”

Lin Nuan nodded in agreement, while inevitably worried for Su Manman at the same time.

The new residence was undoubtedly bustling with life the night before the wedding.

The kitchen was busy preparing their supper. As the elders, Liang Mulan, Aunt Blessing, and Uncle Blessing didn’t wish to intrude on the youngsters’ time together, so they retired to their rooms early to rest.

Ji Zibai was in poor health to begin with, so Xie Jingqian accompanied Ji Zibai back to their room to rest. Lin Ran was keeping Ji Yun company and didn’t wish to head downstairs. As for Fu Tianci, he had long fallen asleep with Tuan Tuan and Little Candy. Everyone else was merrily chattering as they ate supper, with the servants constantly refilling the alcohol, fruit juice, and tea.

Gu Qingcheng bit a cigarette at the corner of his lips, and the smoke was blurring his sturdy facial features, making it impossible for others to read his emotions.

No one could tell that Gu Qingcheng, who was sitting there smiling and with a cigarette in his mouth, was injured…

Yun Liuli sat next to Gu Qingcheng, obediently eating some cake with her head lowered. There was nearly zero interaction between the two of them, but the atmosphere was, for some reason, very… harmonious.

Lin Nuan instructed the servants to be more mindful of Gu Qingcheng’s cup, making sure the water in it was kept warm by constant refills. She also got them to serve Yun Liuli some puddings, having noticed that she seemed fond of them.

Previously, in America, Lin Nuan had limited time to interact with Gu Qingcheng. But, to Lin Nuan, Gu Qingcheng was the person who rescued her from the hands of the dangerous Li Muyang. Add to that the things he had done for Fu Huai’an, plus his injuries, and Lin Nuan took more attentive care of him than she did other people.

Lin Nuan sat by Fu Huai’an’s side. Under the table… their fingers were intertwined.

Their friends were seated at the large dining room table, laughing and talking.

Tang Zheng, Bai Jinyu, Bai Xiaonian, and Xu Wanwan were chatty people, so with the four of them around, they didn’t lack cheerfulness.

Lin Nuan adjusted the large shawl around her shoulders, her body unknowingly leaning towards Fu Huai’an.

Fu Huai’an was looking at Bai Jinyu, who was talking to him, a slight smile on his lips. He quietly switched to holding Lin Nuan’s hand with his right hand, raising his left hand to circle around Lin Nuan’s shoulders, letting her lean in his arms.

Fu Huai’an had done this in a natural and fluid movement, as if instinctively.

Under the warm lighting, Fu Huai’an laughed softly because of something funny Bai Jinyu said. Lin Nuan looked up and saw Fu Huai’an’s sexy Adam’s apple bobbing up and down slightly. Together with his well-defined jawline, it was the most beautiful thing Lin Nuan had ever seen.

Lin Nuan couldn’t resist smiling. Simply leaning in Fu Huai’an’s arms, she felt like he had given her the most wonderful life she wanted and could have asked for.

Being considerate of the fact that Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan would be busy the whole next day for the wedding, as well as Gu Qingcheng’s injury, everyone decided to call it a day at about 10:30 pm.

Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan stood at the top of the staircase on the second floor. In their bedroom, Liang Mulan was waiting for Lin Nuan.

The night before the wedding, Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan had to sleep separately according to custom.

Previously, when Fu Huai’an wasn’t at home, without him hugging her at night, Lin Nuan couldn’t quite fall asleep. She felt like tonight would likely be a sleepless night too…

The two of them were like a young pair of madly in love lovebirds as they parted reluctantly at the door.

Lin Nuan gazed at Fu Huai’an. Unable to resist edging towards him, her slim arms circled his narrow waist. “Our wedding is tomorrow. Why aren’t you the least bit nervous?”

He lowered his head to look at his little bride’s fair and slightly blushing face. She looked just like the easily shy young lady from when they had first met, the expression in her eyes gentle and soft like flowing water. The corners of his lips turned up when he saw her white teeth and red lips. He caressed Lin Nuan’s lips with a thumb, unable to resist lowering his head.

Lin Nuan bit her lip even harder, her hand tightly clutching onto the fabric on Fu Huai’an’s back.

The two of them had been a married couple for a while now. Just one look, one action from Fu Huai’an… and Lin Nuan would know what Fu Huai’an was thinking about. She felt her heart rate quickening.

With the handsome face enlarged before her, their noses gently touched.

Lin Nuan’s eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly spreading its wings. She said softly, “I feel that we’re a little like a young pair of high school lovebirds getting intimate at the door of their house, afraid of getting caught by their parents. It’s kind of… thrilling!”

Fu Huai’an’s gaze grew darker, and he edged closer. Their breathing intertwined, and his thin lips gently grazed Lin Nuan’s luscious lips. Then, in a slightly raspy voice that was carrying a smile, he said, “High school? Xiao Nuan likes to do role play?”

The atmosphere had already heated up, and the ambiguity between them was on the verge of exploding. Fu Huai’an just had to pick that moment to say something so lustful. Lin Nuan’s breathing was all messed up, and her voice sounded much weaker. “Don’t talk nonsense!”

“Mm, I won’t talk nonsense. I’ll kiss you!” Fu Huai’an pressed his thin lips upon Lin Nuan’s soft and fragrant lips. They were like flower petals, and from her lips, he obtained the sweetness of honey.

At that moment, Tang Zheng, who had drunk a little wine and was feeling thirsty, left the living room, prepared to go downstairs to search for a bottle of water…
