Lu Jinnan bit onto the cigarette butt, his gaze fearlessly sizing up Lin Nuan across the road and said, “Women—just give them a car, some flowers, a bag, and a card, and it’s pretty easy to coax them into bed. Is it necessary for you to plan such a huge trap?”

“She’s different from those women of yours,” Fu Huai’an’s deep voice replied calmly, a smile ghosting the corner of his lips in between the puffs of white cigarette smoke.

“She’s indeed different. I investigated that Lin Nuan before; a flower at the radio station that no one has ever managed to tarnish. She’s really hard to obtain, too smart, and quite good at faking it.” Lu Jinnan spoke with a sour tone, “So you like the kind that’s harder to get?

Or… do you like it when women who are harder to obtain submit themselves to you?”

Fu Huai’an pressed the area between his brows with the hand holding the cigarette. He remained silent, and the look in his eyes seemed distant and fathomless.

A car drove over—Lin Nuan ignored the puddles of water on the road and left the pavement, reaching her hand out to stop the car…

“Lin Nuan?!”

Gu Hanyan called her name, but Lin Nuan didn’t look back.

A mixture of mud and ice-cold water soaked Lin Nuan’s white sports shoes, but she didn’t even notice it. She was anxious to escape a place so close to Fu Huai’an. It was only after entering the cab and the warm air hit her that she realized her feet were freezing.

…

Lin Nuan held her umbrella and stood in front of Fu Huai’an’s villa, hesitating.

Because of Gu Hanyan’s last words, once Lin Nuan reached her house, she again gave the cab driver Fu Huai’an’s address.

She was afraid that after tonight, she would lose the courage to come and find Fu Huai’an.

“Miss Lin…”

Upon hearing a voice, Lin Nuan raised her head and saw that Fu Huai’an’s housekeeper had already opened the door to the house. She jogged over to Lin Nuan while carrying an umbrella.

Lin Nuan had once sent Fu Huai’an’s son back home, thus his housekeeper had seen her before and recognized her.

The warm light inside the house shone out from the door, making individual raindrops clear and distinct…

“I saw someone was standing outside without moving for such a long time so I came out to take a look. I didn’t think that it would be Miss Lin!” Auntie Li gave a friendly smile to Lin Nuan. “Is Miss Lin here today to see Tuan Tuan? Tuan Tuan misses you and talks about you every day. He keeps saying that Miss Lin promised to come visit him.”

The sound of the heavy rain hitting the umbrella couldn’t drown out Auntie Li’s happy voice…

She quickly invited Lin Nuan into the house, saying, “It’s pouring outside right now! Quickly enter the house, Miss Lin.”

“Is Mr. Fu back?” When Lin Nuan asked the question, her grip on the umbrella subconsciously tightened and her heart felt unavoidably anxious.

Lin Nuan’s voice was very small and almost couldn’t be heard. Auntie Li took a while to process the question before she reacted and smiled, replying, “Sir is not back yet…”

A car’s bright headlights shone over and Lin Nuan immediately froze in her steps.

Inside the car, Fu Huai’an’s assistant saw the car light hitting Lin Nuan, whose pants were already half-drenched. She was standing together with Auntie Li with a slightly pale face. The assistant looked at Fu Huai’an through the rearview mirror, saying, “Boss, it’s Miss Lin…”

Fu Huai’an had lowered his head, his deep eyes focused on his phone’s screen. The light from the screen outlined Fu Huai’an’s cold features, emotionless without a hint of warmth…

Fu Huai’an looked up, and indeed it was Lin Nuan…

Lin Nuan raised her hand to block the car’s overly bright light, her heartbeat increasing.

The car came to a stop and Fu Huai’an’s assistant exited the car and greeted Lin Nuan briefly before jogging over to the other side of the vehicle. He held an umbrella to escort Fu Huai’an outside.

Fu Huai’an stepped out of the car, his suit still immaculate—even his leather shoes were clean and had only a few rainwater droplets on them. It was a sharp contrast compared to Lin Nuan’s disheveled look.

Lin Nuan subconsciously straightened her back.

“Sir is back…” Auntie Li smiled and spoke in a happy tone.

“It’s raining too hard, you should go in first,” Fu Huai’an said to Lin Nuan in a low voice.

Lin Nuan followed after Fu Huai’an and entered the house. Auntie Li drew a bath for her, finding her some clean clothes.

“Miss Lin, since the rain is too heavy and Jing’er road has been flooded, you definitely won’t be able to go home tonight. Sir said to let you rest for here for the night, and you can leave tomorrow.” Auntie Li passed a clean set of clothes to Lin Nuan, “This is a new set of pajamas Sir just bought yesterday; it’s washed and unworn. Your clothes are all soaked, so please make do with this for now. Dinner is already prepared so you can come down and eat after you’re done bathing.””

“Thank you…” Lin Nuan took the pajamas.

Lin Nuan took a hot bath in the bathroom of the guest room, feeling much better afterward.
