1153 Tasted Bland (1/2)

Tang Zheng saw You Nainai frowning and looking upset, so he tried to hold You Nainai's hand testingly before letting go. ”Just be more attentive when you protect Sis-in-law in the future. Thank god Lu Jinnan was there today! But… I feel that Sis-in-law is pretty formidable already. Even if Lu Jinnan wasn't around, Lu Qili probably wouldn't have been able to hurt Sis-in-law!”

Hearing Little Candy chitter-chattering about bragging about this at the kindergarten, You Nainai's highly-strung nerves eased.

Yun Liuli had sent Gu Qingcheng a message to tell him that everything was fine. She told him not to call as it would make everyone more nervous and also not to pick her up now! She said that she would be good and return to the Fu residence with Lin Nuan. With Lin Nuan around, Gu Qingcheng's mind was at ease. She reminded Gu Qingcheng to pick her up at night.

When Gu Qingcheng saw Yun Liuli's messages, he wasn't so worried, as he knew about Yun Liuli's skills. Even with one arm injured, Gu Qingcheng believed that Lu Qili wouldn't be able to hurt Yun Liuli.

On the contrary, the atmosphere was heavy in Fu Huai'an's car.

Lin Nuan asked Fu Huai'an not to overthink things. It wasn't that Fu Huai'an wished to overthink, but… the instant Fu Huai'an retracted the team protecting Lin Nuan, this happened. He was settling Gu Qingcheng's affairs, so this… made Fu Huai'an feel uneasy.

Settling Gu Qingcheng's matter was significant! It wasn't without its risks.

Fu Huai'an had never feared danger, but he feared danger would befall Lin Nuan, Tuan Tuan, and Yuan Yuan.

Fu Huai'an gripped Lin Nuan's hand tightly and didn't say a single word as he drove them back home.

Gu Qingcheng knew that Yun Liuli was taken to the Fu residence by Fu Huai'an, so he went there too, even arriving earlier than Fu Huai'an and the rest.

Before Yun Liuli got out of the car, she saw Gu Qingcheng standing at the entrance with both hands in his pockets. With both hands pressed against the car window, her lips curled into a smile. Once the car stopped, she pulled open the car door and ran into Gu Qingcheng's arms.

Gu Qingcheng was mindful that Yun Liuli's arm was injured, so he retreated two steps and gripped Yun Liuli's shoulders to avoid bumping against her injured arm. ”Slower!”

”Are you here to pick me up?” Yun Liuli looked up at Gu Qingcheng. ”I'm not injured. Lu Jinnan got hurt, but… I think this misfortune might have come to him as a blessing in disguise. Sister Xiao Bai's heart might ache for Lu Jinnan, and she might end up patching things up with him!”

Lin Nuan got out of the car with Yuan Yuan in her arms and heard Fu Huai'an say to Tuan Tuan, ”Tuan Tuan, be good and keep Mama and Sister company. Papa has something to discuss with Uncle Tang and Uncle Gu. I'll hand Mama and Sister to you, okay?”

Tuan Tuan nodded solemnly. ”I'll protect Mama… and Sister!”

”Is this about Lu Qili's matter?” Lin Nuan frowned. ”Lu Qili already killed someone, just let the law…”

Fu Huai'an smiled at Lin Nuan and interrupted her words. ”It's about Gu Qingcheng's matter!”

Upon hearing Fu Huai'an mention this, Lin Nuan knew what Fu Huai'an was referring to. They had at least this much chemistry after being a married couple for so long!

Lin Nuan knew that Fu Huai'an had perhaps… pulled Gu Qingcheng out from that quagmire!

Lin Nuan nodded. ”I got it! You guys can take your time. I'll get the kitchen to prepare lunch. If you're not down by then, I'll get them to bring the food up to you!”

Fu Huai'an gripped Lin Nuan's petite hand. ”Thanks for the hard work!”

”No!” said Lin Nuan as she shook her head.

Be it Fu Huai'an, Gu Qingcheng… Lu Jinnan, or Tang Zheng, they were all loyal and sentimental men!
