13 A Marriage With Fu Huaisan? (1/2)

Tuan Tuan saw the kid opposite their table splattering his face with ice-cream, his mother chuckling and wiping it off the corner of her little sweetheart's mouth—his heart ached with longing at the scene.

He took a peek at Lin Nuan and felt a sinking feeling inside… he, too, had ice cream splattered all over his face.

When Tuan Tuan dropped his head to take another scoop of ice cream, a soft, slender finger suddenly grasped his head.

He looked up and saw Lin Nuan wipe his mouth gently with a handkerchief.

”Eat slower… look at the mess on your face.” Lin Nuan's voice sounded so lovely, just like the first time he heard it on the radio station. It was so soft—soft enough to make people feel fuzzy inside.

”Okay!” Tuan Tuan nodded. But he didn't want to eat slower. He liked the way Lin Nuan gently wiped the corner of his mouth when he made a huge mess on his face. It felt like he was being lovingly adored by a mother.

Bai Xiaonian sat across Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan, chewing on her straw. She crossed her long, slender legs, a troubled expression written all over her face.

”Are you really… going to marry Fu Huai'an?” Bai Xiaonian felt Lin Nuan's decision was too rash.

Lin Nuan nodded.

Bai Xiaonian knew Lin Nuan was smart. She was sure that Lin Nuan knew that Gu Hanyan was just using her, but she was actually willing to let herself be used for Wen Moshen.

”But what about your happiness?” Bai Xiaonian asked again, ”And what about that dignified fiancé the Lin Family arranged for you?”

”That was the fiancé they prepared for a daughter of the Lin family. Their legitimate daughters should be the ones marrying into the Gu Family—”

Lin Nuan stopped herself mid-speech.

Of course, the Gu Family wasn't going to let a woman with a mentally disabled mother marry their only son.

Bai Xiaonian knew Lin Nuan all too well. The real reason was that Lin Nuan had no feelings towards the young Sir from the Gu Family. If she did, she wouldn't have managed to say all that so nonchalantly.
