Mr Fu, I Really Love You

“You’re the child’s mother… It’s a given that he came to find you.”

Fu Huai’an’s low, rich voice carried an evident undertone of delight – which penetrated Lin Nuan’s body like a bolt of electricity.

Lin Nuan had no idea how to respond to him when he put it that way.

What did Fu Huai’an mean? Was he rushing Lin Nuan to consider it quickly and agree, otherwise Tuan Tuan would get scolded if she wasn’t his mother?

How would anyone use their own son to threaten somebody?

Was Fu Huai’an being overly shameless?

“I’ll pass the phone to Tuan Tuan…” Lin Nuan said as she passed it over to him and told him it was his father calling.

Tuan Tuan’s petite hand grabbed the phone while the other was unwilling to let go of Lin Nuan’s finger. Lin Nuan had to kneel down to hold up the phone next to his ear.

Tuan Tuan hollered into the phone feeling somewhat guilty, “Papa…”

Lin Nuan could hear Fu Huai’an’s harsh scolding near the phone. She intentionally turned her head to keep a distance between herself and the phone as the palm of her hand began to sweat.

After he hung up the phone, Tuan Tuan didn’t seem disappointed like he should be after getting a scolding. His eyes looked like embedded, glistening stars. He grabbed Lin Nuan’s fingers even tighter.

“Papa said, if Mama wants to have me, I can follow Mama!”

Tuan Tuan succinctly summarized what Fu Huai’an said over the phone, yet he forgot to mention that Uncle Lu was going to deliver his luggage over to Mama’s house.

Lin Nuan was shocked. She was originally planning to comfort Tuan Tuan in his disappointment yet the words were caught in her throat.

“Are you bringing Tuan Tuan back to your place?” Bai Xiaonian glanced at him without waiting for Lin Nuan to respond, “Otherwise, I’ll take Song Yao to my place.”

Lin Nuan’s house wasn’t big in the first place. With Bai Xiaonian and Song Yao staying over, not to mention how crowded it would be with three adults and a child, it wouldn’t be appropriate to let a child see the wounds on Song Yao’s face.

Tuan Tuan looked at Lin Nuan with utmost anticipation, his soft hands clutching onto her finger, as if he was afraid to be abandoned.

“I’ll tidy up the small bedroom today when I get back for me and Tuan Tuan to stay in. You don’t have to keep sleeping on the floor. Share the larger bed with Song Yao.”

Yesterday, Song Yao came out of the blue, leaving her no time to clean up the small bedroom. Hence, Bai Xiaonian had to sleep on the floor since it wasn’t fit to sleep in. With Tuan Tuan coming over, it was about time to clean it up.

Lin Nuan looked at Tuan Tuan’s smile which held such healing power. She felt perhaps letting Tuan Tuan come over would comfort Song Yao.

“Let’s stay together!”

Tuan Tuan’s mood turned as bright as day when he heard Lin Nuan say that. He was so excited he nearly leaped into the air. He loved Mama the most, and of course, Papa as well.

“Go back and notify Song Yao first. I’ll take Tuan Tuan to the supermarket to buy some things…”

Song Yao brought a case of vegetables and fruits when she came over – but she still needed daily supplies.

Since Fu Huai’an was on a business trip for three days and about to return tomorrow or the day after, she also had to prepare some snacks and milk for Tuan Tuan.

…

The supermarket was under the Sheng De Building. The first floor sold children’s clothes and sports apparel.

Tuan Tuan was wearing pajamas – he obviously needed to get a new outfit.

Lin Nuan didn’t have any children and was thus unfamiliar with these children brands. As she looked down to ask him which shop he liked, she noticed he was looking at the door of a sportswear shop. Three models resembling a family was wearing the same style outfit.

Lin Nuan followed his gaze and asked, “Do you like that outfit?”

Tuan Tuan nodded.

Lin Nuan brought him into that sportswear shop and let the assistant bring out the outfit the child model displayed outside for Tuan Tuan to try on.
