Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing nodded their heads continuously. Uncle Blessing had long brought out their two packed pieces of luggage. “This is my and Aunt Blessing’s luggage!”
“Do you need to take two large pieces of luggage with you when you attend a wedding?” Fu Tianci looked like his eyes were about to pop out as he gazed at the two 29-inch expandable pieces of luggage.
“These are local specialties for Xiao Nuan and Huai’an!” Aunt Blessing smiled vibrantly.
The door was pushed open, and Little Blessing squeezed its way out from the door. The minute it saw Lin Nuan, Little Blessing ran towards her and wagged its tail hard at her, then stuck out its tongue. Seeing Tuan Tuan in Lin Nuan’s arms, Little Blessing stopped in front of Lin Nuan and cocked its head to gaze at Tuan Tuan, who was in Lin Nuan’s arms.
Tuan Tuan also gazed at Little Blessing, cocking his head sideways just like Little Blessing did. Uncle Blessing couldn’t resist laughing out loud at the sight.
“Uncle Blessing, Aunt Blessing, what are you going to do with Little Blessing?” asked Lin Nuan.
“Aunt Blessing and I have asked someone to come take care of Little Blessing and look after the house. She’ll be here soon. Can we wait for a little while and leave after she gets here?” asked Aunt Blessing.
Lin Nuan nodded.
“Then, I’ll take your things to the car first!” Little Lu attentively went to carry the two pieces of luggage by Uncle Blessing’s side.
There was a distance from the Blessings’ place to the car, so Little Lu thought he could carry the luggage over first.
“Little Lu, the two pieces of luggage are rather heavy. You’ll carry one, and I’ll carry the other one!” Uncle Blessing quickly offered.
Fu Huai’an saw Little Lu and Uncle Blessing come out, each carrying a piece of luggage in their hands, and looked into the house…
“Huai’an, we’ll be leaving shortly. The young lady that your Aunt Blessing asked to take care of Little Blessing and look after our house isn’t here yet! Let’s leave after she gets here…”
Fu Huai’an nodded and took the luggage from Uncle Blessing’s hands.
“Aye, aye, aye! Let me do it myself!” Uncle Blessing feared he might tire Fu Huai’an out.
“You stay and play with Tuan Tuan…”
Fu Huai’an lifted the luggage with one hand and proceeded to walk out.
Jiang Chengyuan’s lips trembled as he gazed at the view of Fu Huai’an’s lean and long back, a bitter sensation in his heart and mouth.
On the other hand, Uncle Blessing looked at Fu Huai’an’s back view with an elated expression, clearly heartened at the act of filial piety from a child to his elder.
“Mr. Jiang, don’t stand outside! Come in and take a seat!” Uncle Blessing said to Jiang Chengyuan.
Jiang Chengyuan gazed at that large door from which Fu Huai’an disappeared, and he was lost in thought for a good while. It was only when Tuan Tuan’s laughter rang out from inside the house that Jiang Chengyuan turned his head to look indoors and followed Uncle Blessing into the house.
Inside the house, Little Blessing was touching its nose against Tuan Tuan’s chubby little hand and wagging its tail vigorously, its silly and adorable manner causing laughter to erupt all around.
“Alright, alright, Little Blessing!” Aunt Blessing bent over and stroked Little Blessing’s head. “We know you’re fond of Tuan Tuan! We get it! We get it… we all get it!”
When Little Blessing heard Aunt Blessing’s words, it raised its head, stuck out its tongue, and shook its tail, then squatted before Tuan Tuan, looking endearingly silly.
A lady with waist-length hair dressed in a white down jacket walked to the door with an umbrella. She was about to reach for the doorbell when she saw that the door was closed but not locked. Hence, she lightly pushed it open and gently called out, “Uncle Blessing! Aunt Blessing!”
When Little Blessing heard this sound, it scooted out immediately…
Aunt Blessing looked up at the voice too. “Ya! It’s Miaomiao! Uncle Blessing… quickly go out and welcome her in!”
“Okay, okay, okay!” Uncle Blessing, who had just picked up the snacks, hurriedly placed them down and went out to welcome her in, with Little Blessing leading the way in front.
“It’s the young lady who’s here to look after our house. She’s called Sun Miaomiao. Previously, when Little Blessing went missing, it was Miaomiao who found him and sent him back. She’s an art college student who’s also pretty and kind. The last time she came to our house to visit Little Blessing, she heard that we were going to Haicheng to attend Xiao Nuan and Huai’an’s wedding. Upon hearing us discussing whether we ought to send Little Blessing to the pet shop, Miaomiao offered to come over and help take care of him…”
As Lin Nuan listened to Aunt Blessing talk, she turned her head towards the door.
In the snow, a long-haired lady carrying a light gray umbrella was bent over stroking Little Blessing’s head. When she heard Uncle Blessing come out, she quickly looked up, smiled, and closed her umbrella. “Uncle Blessing!”
Sun Miaomiao’s barbie doll-like pretty eyes sparkled as if they were encrusted with the galaxies. Her black and silky straight hair fell around her white down jacket, making her petite face appear all the fairer.
It was rare to see someone as pretty and innocent-looking as her. She had the kind of goddess-like looks that men wished their first love would have.
“Apologies Uncle Blessing, I was caught in a traffic jam, hence the lateness!” Sun Miaomiao smiled at Uncle Blessing apologetically.
Uncle Blessing waved a hand. “No, no! We’re just about to leave too!”
Aunt Blessing had come out too. Lin Nuan picked up Tuan Tuan’s little jacket and helped Tuan Tuan put it on…
Seeing that Aunt Blessing had come out too, Sun Miaomiao raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ears, then revealed a gentle smile at Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing. “Don’t worry, Uncle Blessing, Aunt Blessing, I’ll make sure to take good care of Little Blessing!”
“With Miaomiao here, your Uncle Blessing and I have nothing to worry about!” Aunt Blessing quickly invited Sun Miaomiao into the house.
All these years, Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing didn’t have children and had always regarded these children as their own children. They were nice to everyone.
“Uncle Blessing, I’ve already put the luggage into the car. We can leave at any time!” Little Lu entered and said.
Sun Miaomiao turned around. Seeing Little Lu, who had an extraordinary aura, enter, she smiled and nodded, thinking that Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing were going to attend this man’s wedding. However, before she could congratulate him, she saw Fu Huai’an, who was standing behind Little Lu. Sun Miaomiao paused in surprise…
Sun Miaomiao was an art student, and she had learned drawing in her major!
She had seen many models with deep-set facial features, yet she had never seen someone like Fu Huai’an. He had such cold and tough features, which revealed a hint of masculinity and maturity, exuding a strong masculine hormonal scent.
Having been in the business world for so many years, even if Fu Huai’an wasn’t wearing a suit, his strong and powerful aura had already been carved into his bones and could still easily be sensed. Much less today, when Fu Huai’an was in a formal suit, which, under the complements of his well-built figure, differentiated him from most successful people in society.
Sun Miaomiao’s heart couldn’t help beating faster, and she blushed as she gazed at Fu Huai’an. She quickly diverted her gaze and looked towards Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing to flash them a smile.
Lin Nuan carried a dressed Tuan Tuan out, with Fu Tianci following closely behind. She asked, “Can we leave now?”
Sun Miaomiao turned to the source of the voice and was surprised to see the show host Lin Nuan, whom she could only see on TV. She was carrying an adorable child in her arms, and a young man was standing next to her with his hands in his pockets. The latter’s brows were slightly furrowed, and he appeared to have come straight out of a comic…
Lin Nuan’s gentle eyes smiled lightly. Against the backdrop of the heavy snow, her exquisite facial features were stunning.
This greatly attacked the visual senses of Sun Miaomiao, who studied art.
Jiang Chengyuan was still seated inside the house. After a moment’s hesitation, he stood up and walked out from inside.
Fu Huai’an wasn’t planning to invite him to his and Lin Nuan’s wedding. Although regretful, Jiang Chengyuan was unable to lower his stance and beg Fu Huai’an or Lin Nuan, so he could only quietly announce that he was leaving.
Aunt Blessing sent Jiang Chengyuan to the door. Watching Jiang Chengyuan’s lonesome back view leave, she felt a little bad for him and wanted to persuade Fu Huai’an. However, at the same time, she felt that it wasn’t her place to meddle in this matter, so she held herself back from saying something.
Lin Nuan turned her head sideways and glanced at the expressionless Fu Huai’an, ultimately not saying anything.
Fu Huai’an wasn’t accepted by his father when he was still a child and thus didn’t grow up by his father’s side. Now, the adult Fu Huai’an naturally couldn’t accept this so-called birth father, and Lin Nuan could totally understand why!
To bring up his birth father, Jiang Chengyuan, was as good as revealing Fu Huai’an’s old scars. Lin Nuan was unwilling to do that.
After sending away Jiang Chengyuan, the house started bustling with life again.
“Miaomiao, make yourself at home. Your Aunt Blessing has already changed the bedsheets in the room you stayed in the last time you stayed over. There are also fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as yogurt in the fridge!” Uncle Blessing informed her.
Sun Miaomiao nodded. “Uncle Blessing, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of myself and Little Blessing!”
“Then let’s go…” Fu Huai’an spoke, his rich voice sounding deep and sexy.
Fu Tianci was still holding onto Fu Huai’an’s jacket. “Put on your jacket first!”
Fu Huai’an moved to Lin Nuan’s side and elegantly and fluidly put on his jacket and adjusted his collar. He then took Tuan Tuan from Lin Nuan’s arms with one hand, the other hand holding Lin Nuan’s petite hand. “Let’s go!”
Sun Miaomiao couldn’t resist looking in Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s direction. Fu Huai’an’s calm demeanor made him appear superior to others. The way he talked and moved also gave off a noble and elegant impression. His powerful and intimidating aura was something a mere college student had never seen before.
“Then, Miaomiao, we’ll get going now! We’ll hand the house and Little Blessing to you!” Aunt Blessing beamed and said.
“Aunt Blessing, don’t worry!” Sun Miaomiao’s ears were a little reddened. Her vision turned to Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an one again, and she asked Aunt Blessing in a small voice, “Aunt Blessing, are you and Uncle Blessing going to attend Ms. Lin Nuan and her husband’s wedding?”
Lin Nuan was, after all, considered a celebrity, so Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing weren’t surprised that others could recognize her.
Aunt Blessing smiled and nodded. “Yes. But Xiao Nuan and Huai’an don’t intend to make it known to the public. So, Miaomiao, you must keep this a secret!”
Sun Miaomiao nodded right away. “Uncle Blessing, Aunt Blessing, don’t worry!”
Sun Miaomiao and Little Blessing stood at the door in the yard, watching as Lin Nuan, Fu Huai’an, and the rest left. She lowered her head and said to Little Blessing, “If that’s Lin Nuan… then the one beside her should be the Kaide Corporation’s President Fu Huai’an! This is the first time I’ve seen Fu Huai’an in person. He’s so handsome!”
Little Blessing, who was sitting down beside Sun Miaomiao, barked as if agreeing with what she said.
“I’m not sure if I’ll have the chance to see him again. But… with Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing here, I should be able to see him again!”
Little Blessing gazed at Sun Miaomiao, shaking its head as if it didn’t understand what she was saying, looking endearingly silly.
Sun Miaomiao was so tickled that she laughed out loud. She covered her lips with one hand as she laughed, then reached out to stroke Little Blessing’s head. “Let’s go… go inside!”
Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing were seated in Little Lu’s car and were following behind Fu Huai’an’s car as they drove out of Jincheng.
On the way, Fu Huai’an received Ji Zibai’s call. The latter had wanted to meet Fu Huai’an for a bit. After finding out that Fu Huai’an had already set off and left Jincheng, Ji Zibai decided to rush to Haicheng after Christmas and help with the preparations for Fu Huai’an’s wedding.
…
After discussing it, Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an decided first to arrange for Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing to stay at their new place. Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing couldn’t keep still and wanted to help out with Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an’s wedding—their feelings identical to Liang Mulan’s in that respect!
As the wedding date got closer, Liang Mulan went to their new place nearly every day, giving them instructions and reminders about the wedding details, such as food and the like.
So Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan had arranged for Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing to stay at their new residence. That way, they could get busy like Liang Mulan and wouldn’t be bored.
On the way, Fu Huai’an’s phone kept on vibrating, but he didn’t answer it. Fu Tianci, who was seated in the front passenger seat, couldn’t help glancing at it for Fu Huai’an. The minute he saw that it was Fu Qingquan, Fu Tianci’s scalp went numb.
“It’s my dad!” Fu Tianci said in a soft voice. “It should be… that Secretary Song told my dad about it!”
Fu Huai’an, who hadn’t asked Fu Tianci the reason he had left the house until now, asked, “Care to tell me why you left the house?”
Fu Tianci’s hands clenched, but he pretended to be nonchalant as he said with a frown, “Just… I don’t know what the hell was wrong with the students at school, but they ganged up to bully a young lady. I couldn’t stand it, so I beat up a fellow called Qiao Yihang. I heard he’s the young master of some corporation that recently started some collaboration with the Kaide Corporation! The moment I went home and told my mom about it, she exploded. I looked at how flustered and panicked she was and feared the old man might want to beat me to death like the last time! So, I fled first…”
Fu Tianci only told half of the story.
The reason Fu Tianci beat up that Qiao Yihang fellow was that, previously, there was a female classmate who jumped off the school building due to Qiao Yihang taking the lead to round up other students to bully her in school.
That was Fu Tianci’s classmate, someone from the same class!
Fu Tianci could still remember that right before that female student died, she had sat at her desk dripping wet. She was drenched from head to toe, and the thin fabric of her summer uniform had clung tightly to her body, revealing her curves and the bra underneath completely. Even though she had raised her arms and hugged her chest to cover herself, she couldn’t hide it.
The girls in the class had taken the love letter that the girl wrote to a senior and read it out loud in a weird and ugly way, as if mimicking her.
The girl, who had been tolerating it until then, exploded. As she got up, her chair made a loud sound as it scratched against the floor.
Fu Tianci, who was sleeping in the last row, was awoken by this noise. He looked up at that girl and only heard her say in a choked voice, “All of you people will suffer retribution!”
Early the next morning, when they went to school, they saw that female student standing up on the school building. The students who had been bullying the girl were cheering loudly for her to jump down.
Even now, Fu Tianci could still remember the way that girl looked before she jumped down, as she shouted out with a look of despair on her face that the people in the school were her murderers!
Fu Tianci was standing in the front row at that time. When that girl jumped down, her warm blood splattered across Fu Tianci’s white skateboard shoes.
From that day onwards, Fu Tianci had felt that his body was stained with that female classmate’s blood too.
He felt that way even though he didn’t know the name of that classmate and had never participated in bullying her!
Later, Fu Tianci found out that Qiao Yihang was fond of that girl and was rejected by her when he confessed to her. And so, he ganged up with the other students at the school to isolate and bully this girl.
Every night, when Fu Tianci dreamed of the scene where that female classmate had cried and shouted out with a look of despair on her face that the people in the school were her murderers, he would feel guilty about it!
He wondered, what if he had stood out and spoken a word or two in defense of that girl, or simply handed her a jacket when she was drenched…
