Chapter 1148: I Was Picked Up!
“Leave the things that are tying you down to !” Fu Huai’an looked at Gu Qingcheng seriously.
Back then, Gu Qingcheng was brought into this because of Fu Huai’an. Now… Fu Huai’an was going to pull Gu Qingcheng out of it! It didn’t matter what price he had to pay to do that.
…
Bai Jinyu had accompanied Yun Liuli the entire ti for her checkup, so even though the report wasn’t out yet, he was already certain that Yun Liuli’s recovery was going well.
Bai Jinyu helped Yun Liuli change the dressing for her wound, then, together with his wife, Xu Wanwan, sent Yun Liuli out. Xu Wanwan couldn’t help but instruct Yun Liuli, “Don’t play on the thrill rides later on!”
“Got it!”
Xu Wanwan watched as Yun Liuli got into the car, and she pursed her lips. “I’m so envious of Xiao Liuli, Sister Xiao Nuan, and the others! They can go out to play, but I have to stay here and continue my internship…”
Xu Wanwan wrapped her hands around Bai Jinyu’s arm. “Professor Bai… rember to give a very good appraisal when I finish my internship!”
Bai Jinyu glanced at the Xu Wanwan, who was smiling brightly. “Work hard during your internship, be good, and pay attention in class, and your good appraisal won’t run off!”
“What if I don’t be good and pay attention in class?” Xu Wanwan asked.
Bai Jinyu’s eyes narrowed, and he licked his lips. He threw sideward glances to make sure that there wasn’t anyone nearby before saying next to Xu Wanwan’s ear, “If you don’t be good and pay attention in class, I’ll f*ck you until you cry at night!”
Xu Wanwan bit hard on her lower lip, then pinched Bai Jinyu on the arm, her neck turning red. “Who is afraid of who?”
“Tsk!” Bai Jinyu smacked his lips. “Just don’t cry and beg for rcy!”
The journey from the hospital to the amusent park was about 30 to 40 minutes. When Yun Liuli arrived, it was already 10:30 am. She gave Lin Nuan a call when she was at the amusent park’s entrance.
Lin Nuan was holding Yuan Yuan while sitting down with Bai Xiaonian under a patio umbrella at the resting area’s cafe, drinking coffee.
You Nainai had taken Little Candy and Tuan Tuan to ride on the carousel…
Lu Jinnan, who had his shaless mode activated, was one table away from Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian. He was also having a cup of coffee.
Lin Nuan held back her smile and asked Bai Xiaonian, “Didn’t you tell Lu Jinnan that this is a gathering between us girls?”
Bai Xiaonian put down the porcelain coffee cup and pouted. “He knows…”
“Xiaonian…” Lin Nuan gently patted the child who was fast asleep in her arms, saying to Bai Xiaonian, “Lu Jinnan really cares about you. He’s such a proud person, and it’s very rare and comndable for him to do this for you!”
Bai Xiaonian didn’t tell Lin Nuan about her miscarriage. She smiled, not saying a word…
What Bai Xiaonian had lost was a child. This was a hurdle in her heart that she couldn’t cross.
Seeing that Bai Xiaonian’s eyes were dyed in a layer of grief, although Lin Nuan had no idea what happened, she still wanted her friend to be happy. She wanted to talk about so happy things, so she asked Bai Xiaonian, “Is Uncle Bai used to it with Lu Jinnan staying at your place?”
At the ntion of her father, Bai Xiaonian felt angry. “Haha…”
Lin Nuan’s phone vibrated. Seeing that it was from Yun Liuli, she picked up the call and told her their location. She then smiled and asked Bai Xiaonian, “Uncle Bai neglected you?”
“I feel that Lu Jinnan is his real child, while I was picked up!” Bai Xiaonian said this, then took a sip of coffee, rolling her eyes.
There was also Lu Jinnan’s father. She had no idea what Lu Jinnan had told his father, but Lu Jinnan’s father ca to visit almost every day. He even took up the responsibility of buying the groceries. He would go to the market to buy the freshest fruits, vegetables, eggs, and milk in the morning, then accompany Bai Xiaonian’s father out for a walk later on!
When they heard that Bai Xiaonian was going to work, the two old n would have lunch together. When Bai Xiaonian ca back in the evening, Bai Xiaonian’s father would be the one who cooked, Lu Jinnan’s father would wash the dishes, and Lu Jinnan would sweep and mop the floor with great familiarity.
Bai Xiaonian beca the one who didn’t do any household chores at ho. If she showed any signs of wanting to do sothing, there’d be soone who would imdiately snatch the job from her. It’d be either Lu Jinnan or his father. Bai Xiaonian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
And then there was her job…
When Bai Xiaonian went for her show recordings, Lu Jinnan would always tag along!
Everyone knew that Lu Jinnan was the Kaide Corporation’s president, and even the director was only short of putting Lu Jinnan on an altar and revering him. Bai Xiaonian couldn’t bear to see this.
Bai Xiaonian complained to Lin Nuan but saw that Lin Nuan’s face was filled with smiles. “How can you be smiling…”
“To be honest, I’m very happy to see that Lu Jinnan cares so much for you!” Lin Nuan grabbed Bai Xiaonian’s hand. “Song Yao and my brother are married and are very happy together. Out of the three of us… you’re the only one who’s by yourself!”
Seeing that Bai Xiaonian was about to say sothing, Lin Nuan tightened her grip on Bai Xiaonian’s slender hand. “I’m not saying that… marriage is the only eventual destination. I’m saying that… I know that you aren’t happy being by yourself. You’re a lady who appears tough on the outside but actually has a fragile heart. After Lu Jinbei had an affair back then, you didn’t manage to put things down even after many years… Every ti you got drunk, you would be in a lot of pain.”
Bai Xiaonian took a sip of her coffee, retorting, “That’s not true!”
“You, , and Song Yao… out of the three of us, you’re the one who needs the most care and love!” Lin Nuan persuaded Bai Xiaonian in a soft voice. “You always pretend to have a very tough front, and you want us to think the sa as well. Therefore, you always hide everything in your heart, no matter what happens. You only tell us the happy things and not the sad ones! Xiaonian… you always say that there are no secrets between the three of us, but you’re the one with the most secrets hidden in your heart!”
“Xiao Liuli is here!” Bai Xiaonian saw Yun Liuli in the distance and tried to divert the topic.
Lin Nuan didn’t turn, seeming as if she was bent on finishing what she had to say to Bai Xiaonian. “Ever since you ca back from the United States, you have been hiding sothing from Song Yao and . Both of us can tell. The reason we didn’t wish to ask you… is because we’re waiting until you’re willing to tell us! We’re always willing to listen!”
“Sister Xiao Nuan! Sister Xiaonian!”
Hearing Yun Liuli’s clear voice, Lin Nuan drew back her hand that had been holding onto Bai Xiaonian’s. Yuan Yuan moved in her arms, and she gently patted her. Lin Nuan then turned to look in Yun Liuli’s direction.
Yun Liuli was in a very good mood today. Although she wasn’t smiling, her eyes were shining even more brilliantly than today’s sunlight.
“Nainai took Tuan Tuan and Little Candy to the carousel ride. Do you want to go have a ride as well?” Lin Nuan asked.
When Yun Liuli saw Lu Jinnan, she was stunned for a mont. She then nodded to greet him and took a seat next to Bai Xiaonian. She threw a wary glance at Lu Jinnan, who was drinking his coffee, lowered her voice, and said, “I won’t be going. Sister Xiaonian, did you prepare the thing that I asked for your help on?”
Bai Xiaonian nodded. “I’ve already sent it to your email. Didn’t you see it?”
“You sent it?” Yun Liuli’s eyes appeared elated. “I haven’t seen it…”
“Bai Xiaonian, what did you send to Xiao Liuli?” The alarm in Lin Nuan’s heart went off.
Bai Xiaonian shrugged. “It’s the videos that I sent you previously. Xiao Liuli insisted on asking for them. There was nothing I could do about it!”
