Chapter 477: Not Resort to Using a Kid As Cannon Fodder!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[@Little flabs: Am I the only one to have noticed that every item in this house would cost an ordinary person an entire year, or even a few years, of wages?]

[@Understand it all: It’s harder to handle the elder son now that he’s all grown-up, but little kids are naive and easy to conquer. I must say I now look at Miss Lin Nuan in a different light!]

On Weibo, some came out to speak for Lin Nuan, but there weren’t many of them.

Some were watching the fun, and some were there to rub it in!

Lin Nuan was used to this by now and wasn’t too angered by it.

Luckily, not too many were focused on Tuan Tuan in the comments. Most of them were discussing Lin Nuan’s personal life, her relationship with Fu Tianci, and that with his father.

Fu Tianci had participated in the contest under the name Lu Tianyu, so for the time being, no one had dug up Fu Tianci and the Fus…

But, with information being so transparent in today’s society, with no one to cover up Fu Tianci’s identity, it was only a matter of time before this was revealed in the public’s eye.

Lin Nuan subconsciously glanced at Fu Huai’an, who was on his phone. Fu Huai’an’s gaze was deep and indifferent. “Think of a way to hold down the news and don’t let this matter worsen. Tianci’s identity has to be kept a secret! Don’t hold down the news all at once, do it gradually… don’t let this matter ferment.”

It wasn’t Fu Huai’an’s intention to berate Little Lu. With the high penetration rate of the Internet, it was difficult for even a governmental body to hold down a piece of unfavorable news in time.

Lin Nuan’s phone vibrated. It was a text from Fang Yan, advising her not to answer any questions from the media today. She also reminded her to wear a mask and cap before she left her house and said that they could talk when they met.

Lu Jinnan’s call came the moment Fu Huai’an hung up the call with Little Lu.

Lu Jinnan had gone to meet the children of Guangxia Pharmaceuticals’ boss for the last time last night. After he was done speaking with them, he had gone back to take care of Bai Xiaonian and didn’t take note of the news that had broken out!

It was only when he woke up early this morning and received his assistant’s call that he read the news and anxiously gave Fu Huai’an a call.

The plan Lu Jinnan had in mind was simple—to borrow the East?Wind?¹?.

Fu Huai’an narrowed his eyes and didn’t reply. Lu Jinnan explained, “In the past, only people in the circle knew that Fu Tianci was the old man’s illegitimate son, while outsiders knew nothing of it. Once Fu Tianci’s identity is exposed, if the old man dares to hand the Kaide Corporation over to him, we shall see how badly the share price will drop! It will drop so badly the old man will be crying for his father!”

Fu Qingquan certainly had his qualms about this, or things wouldn’t be in the current state—having to put Fu Huai’an in the position of the president while paving the path for his son in the dark to eventually take over.

Seeing as Fu Huai’an wasn’t replying, Lu Jinnan added, “Are you worried about Lin Nuan?”

“I also feel that this is a matter concerning the grown-ups and that we shouldn’t resort to using a kid as cannon fodder.” Fu Huai’an ultimately couldn’t bear to do that to Fu Tianci.

Lu Jinnan was silent for a good while but didn’t continue to convince him. After all, the matter implicated Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan also set down the phone in her hands and smiled at Fu Huai’an as she said, “Luckily, only the back view of Tuan Tuan was captured in the photo. So long as it doesn’t implicate Tuan Tuan or you, I don’t care at all. I’ve grown used to all these attacks over the years. It’s my life, and it’s enough that I’m leading it well, what others say isn’t important to me.”

Fu Huai’an gazed at Lin Nuan and didn’t say anything. Only after a while did he ask Lin Nuan, “Have you ever thought about revealing our marriage publicly?”

Lin Nuan placed her right hand on her knee. “Then what about Tuan Tuan? After we reveal it publicly, what do I say when people ask about Tuan Tuan? Even though I wasn’t in the public eye for the past several years, people around me know I’ve never given birth to a kid. Have you thought about how Tuan Tuan is going to find out he’s not my biological son after we announce our marriage publicly?”

Lin Nuan furrowed her brows, the hand on her knee tightly clenched into a fist as she continued, “Have you thought about how Tuan Tuan would feel? Are we going to tell Tuan Tuan that his birth mother is no longer around?”

Fu Huai’an reached out to grab Lin Nuan’s petite hand. Tuan Tuan was at the top of her consideration in all matters, even though he wasn’t Lin Nuan’s biological son. There was an inexplicable feeling in Fu Huai’an’s heart when he thought of this.

“We can tell the public that you gave birth to Tuan Tuan before you went to Iraq…”

Lin Nuan gazed at Fu Huai’an, a puzzled look in her eyes.

This time, Fu Huai’an did want to borrow the East Wind, but… it was to confirm his marriage to Lin Nuan, as well as the relationship between Tuan Tuan and Lin Nuan.

“But, this matter might make you feel a little aggrieved!”

“I don’t quite get it…”

“We’ll say that we got together very early on. After you gave birth to Tuan Tuan, you went to Iraq in search of Wen Moshen because you couldn’t get over him, causing us to separate for many years. Later, when I came back with our kid, we reconciled.” This was quite sudden, and Fu Huai’an himself felt there was something wrong with what he just proposed after the words came out of his mouth. “But you would then be criticized by people…”

Lin Nuan’s hands clenched, her heart beating faster.

“Regarding Tuan Tuan’s parentage, I’m also worried it might be exposed before Tuan Tuan comes of age. Not many people know of Tuan Tuan’s parentage, so this would be the safest way to handle the matter. When Tuan Tuan comes of age, we can tell him the truth.”

Before Lin Nuan could reply, Tuan Tuan had already woken up upstairs. Auntie Li was praising Tuan Tuan as she carried him downstairs.

Fu Huai’an gripped Lin Nuan’s hand with force, indicating for her to take her time to consider and not continue with this topic.

…

Today, Lin Nuan didn’t have time to send Tuan Tuan to kindergarten, so she only reminded him to be obedient in school and told him that she might return late that night; if she were late, Tuan Tuan should be good and rest early on his own.

Tuan Tuan recalled his conversation with Little Candy in the kindergarten. Little Candy had said that she only had to wheedle with her granny to get her to satisfy Little Candy with anything she wanted; however, if she used the same technique with her mother, it was completely useless. So her conclusion was, her granny loved her and her mother did not!

The little one nodded, then stuck out a chubby little finger. “Then… give me a kiss!”

“Young Master really knows how to wheedle…”

Uncle Hu, who was waiting for Tuan Tuan to get into the car by the side, couldn’t resist smiling as he spoke.

Hence, Tuan Tuan nodded his head, admitting to it in all seriousness, his little gaze full of nervousness as he looked at Lin Nuan. “En!”

Lin Nuan smiled. Seeing the look of seriousness on Tuan Tuan’s face—her gentle eyes particularly vibrant under the golden glow of the morning sun—she planted a kiss on his little face.

Tuan Tuan beamed broadly, his hands tightly clasped around Lin Nuan’s neck, his entire body leaning against her…

Tuan Tuan was overjoyed; he wheedled in front of Mama, and Mama acceded to his request! That meant Mama did love him!

He too loved Mama! But Tuan Tuan was so shy! He didn’t know what he should say to Mama!

Hence, little Tuan Tuan also planted a kiss on Lin Nuan’s face as he called out, “Mama!”

“En!” Lin Nuan answered.

Tuan Tuan’s ears flushed. His hands were behind Lin Nuan’s neck, fidgeting as he spoke in a soft and cute voice, with clear articulation, “Love Mama!”

Lin Nuan understood what he meant; little Tuan Tuan said he loved her.

Lin Nuan’s heart was about to melt. “En! Mama loves Tuan Tuan too!”
