Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Was it alright to be looking at Gu Qingcheng so openly?
Lin Nuan was hesitating over whether she should turn her gaze away when Gu Qingcheng coincidentally raised his head to look in her direction as well.
Gu Qingcheng was considered an eye-catching man. His handso and cool features that were filled with aloofness and self-restraint were especially attractive to young ladies.
Lin Nuan held her breath and saw that Gu Qingcheng didn’t turn his gaze from her.
The young lady was still chattering in a soft voice by Lin Nuan’s ears about how handso Gu Qingcheng was. She was showing the sa reaction that any other young lady would.
Lin Nuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Glancing over and softly chatting should be how ordinary young ladies reacted…
Lin Nuan wore a black, short knee-length dress with puffy hems and black high heels, bringing contrast to how fair, long, and slender her legs were.
She wore a black leather jacket over it, and her waist-length long hair draped down like a waterfall, making her palm-sized face appear even fairer and more tender. Her black gemstone-like eyes, which contrasted against the white parts, could catch one’s eyes without having to do anything.
All ordinary n would probably take a few more looks at such a beautiful lady.
Their gazes t, and the expression in Gu Qingcheng’s eyes let Lin Nuan felt at ease.
She clutched her handbag tightly and walked with an upright posture, appearing like she was trying to use her beauty to attract Gu Qingcheng’s attention.
Even when Lin Nuan and Gu Qingcheng passed each other, their gazes were still stuck to one another…
The short-haired lady kept on turning back, and she pulled at Lin Nuan’s arm, mumbling softly, “That man is still looking at you! He’s really such an attractive man! I wonder if he would dare co up to you and ask for your number!”
Gu Qingcheng’s gaze almost followed Lin Nuan through the entire phase, looking openly to see if there was anyone following Lin Nuan.
“What are you looking at?”
A pair of slender arms wrapped around Gu Qingcheng’s neck and clean and fair hands turned his face back…
Gu Qingcheng turned and saw the beautiful lady who was wearing the coat, cap and mask that Lin Nuan had worn. She acted very intimately with Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng’s lips curled up, and his hand wrapped around the lady’s slender waist as he headed for the elevator.
The few people in the hall who were wearing various expressions followed after him.
…
The short-haired lady put out her hand and called for a taxi once they left the hotel.
In the car, the young lady turned to take a glance before removing her coat and saying, “There’s no one following us!”
Lin Nuan was stunned and subconsciously looked at the driver, feeling uneasy.
“He’s one of us!” The young lady smiled and said to Lin Nuan, “Mr. Gu told us to send you to the apartnt. Everything has been prepared for you there!”
The young lady then handed the red handbag to Lin Nuan. “There’s a phone and so cash inside. We’ll be in the vicinity, protecting you!”
Lin Nuan wanted to ask who they were, but when the words reached her mouth, she swallowed them back and only nodded.
These people looked like they were Gu Qingcheng’s subordinates, and Lin Nuan could tell that they were very skilled. When the short-haired young lady put out her hand to pull her earlier, Lin Nuan could clearly feel the calluses ford from friction when using a gun.
These people who worked for Gu Qingcheng were all skilled actors and would definitely be able to win Oscars! Their acting was even better than professional actors!
The young lady was a little surprised. When she saw how weak and lost Lin Nuan appeared to be earlier, she thought that Lin Nuan would ask a lot of questions. She hadn’t expected that Lin Nuan would nod her head so calmly.
As for the relationship between Lin Nuan and Gu Qingcheng, it was sothing that they, as subordinates, shouldn’t be trying to guess…
Since Gu Qingcheng said that Lin Nuan was soone very important, then it must be so. They would protect her well.
Lin Nuan looked at the red bag, feeling very uneasy. Fu Huai’an said that the dangerous business was handled by Gu Qingcheng. Did that an that these people also worked for Fu Huai’an?
Were they all killers?
Lin Nuan’s mind was in a ss, and she couldn’t help but feel scared.
To Lin Nuan, people like them only appeared in television and novels. Coming into close contact with them made her feel uneasy, giving her the feeling that her life was in danger and that she was leading the life of a fugitive.
It was really terrible…
After all, Lin Nuan didn’t have superb skills, nor was she capable of protecting herself if trouble popped up! Furthermore, she wasn’t the type of person who was especially adventurous or liked to look for excitent!
Such an unknown world, which was filled with life and death, was unfamiliar to a person like her who was slow to warm up to things. It was horrifying!
It wasn’t like how she had gone to Iraq in 2016 to look for Wen Moshen!
Back then, Lin Nuan felt that the entire world had beco aningless, and despair was the greatest sorrow. Those who were unafraid of danger had nothing to fear.
But right now, Lin Nuan had Fu Huai’an and Tuan Tuan, as well as her good friends Bai Xiaonian and Song Yao!
She also couldn’t bear to part with her family in the Lin family!
Lin Nuan, being a person who was filled with weaknesses, had poor compatibility with Fu Huai’an’s other world.
Without Fu Huai’an by her side, Lin Nuan felt extrely anxious and at a loss.
When the short-haired young lady saw Lin Nuan resting against the seat with her eyes closed, she didn’t disturb her.
It wasn’t until they reached the apartnt that she said to Lin Nuan, “Third floor, 0308. The level is lower, and even if you encounter an ambush, it’ll be easier to escape.”
The young lady was afraid that Lin Nuan was inexperienced and reminded her out of goodwill. However, her words made Lin Nuan feel increasingly uneasy, fearing that danger would appear at any mont.
…
Lin Nuan went upstairs with the key and opened the door. The sensor lights at the entryway lit up.
The apartnt wasn’t big, but it was clean and tidy and had everything one would need.
After closing the door, Lin Nuan changed into slippers, but she was unable to rest at ease. She looked outside through the peephole and then walked to the window and looked downstairs.
The taxi that had brought her there earlier was parked downstairs, making Lin Nuan feel a little more at ease.
The sun was already setting, and the warm orange light shone in from the westward windows, covering the entire living room in a warm orange color that would make one feel at ease.
The flaming clouds in the sky when Lin Nuan looked out of the massive westward windows appeared very brilliant. They were like a colorful canvas for the towering buildings in the distance.
It was supposed to be a warming, colorful, and beautiful scene, but Lin Nuan’s heart was heavy.
After entering the apartnt, Lin Nuan placed the keys on the coffee table and checked the environnt briefly. She then hugged a cushion and sat on the one-seater sofa that was facing the door, staring at it, calculating the ti when Fu Huai’an would arrive.
Lin Nuan didn’t wish to stay overseas a mont longer. She wanted to return to their ho country.
She had the feeling that she would only be safe if she were back in their country.
The light from the setting sun moved from the sofa to the walls, becoming increasingly dark until night descended. Darkness encompassed the entire apartnt, and only the lights from the bustling night scene outside provided a tiny light source for the apartnt.
Lin Nuan unknowingly dozed off while leaning against the sofa, hugging onto the cushion tightly.
She didn’t sleep well, and her brows were tightly furrowed. It was as if the slightest movent could wake her up.
Suddenly, two fighting wild cats outside the window jumped up to the apartnt’s balcony via the pipes in succession, letting out intense ows. Lin Nuan was shocked awake and turned to look toward the windows…
