Mr Fu, I Really Love You

After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiaonian’s father told her that while she was away, Lin Nuan didn’t have the time to visit him, but she would frequently call him and have tonics sent to him. Bai Xiaonian’s father was someone who remembered debts of kindness, so he told this to his daughter so that she would repay Lin Nuan in the future.

”At the end of September, before the child was born, she said that they had grown some peanuts in their yard, and she even sent me a box after they harvested the peanuts.”

”Got it!” Bai Xiaonian smiled and nodded. Her father had told her about this over the phone before, but Lin Nuan hadn’t mentioned a word of this to her.

Bai Xiaonian knew that Lin Nuan’s character had always been like this.

When they reached the Fu residence, Bai Xiaonian got out of the car. Bai Xiaonian’s father rolled down the window and stuck his head out to ask, ”You’re going in empty-handed?”

Bai Xiaonian patted her backpack. ”Don’t worry, it’s with me!”

Bai Xiaonian’s father then nodded and told the driver he could drive on.

During those years in college, Bai Xiaonian and Song Yao had indeed helped Lin Nuan a lot. Later, it was Lin Nuan who helped out Bai Xiaonian. Never mind other things… when Bai Xiaonian’s father contracted that illness and needed money, Song Yao and Lin Nuan gave her their savings without a second word. She had never forgotten what they did for her.

That was some time ago now. Her father’s condition had stabilized since he started taking the cheaper version of Abinoque. It didn’t matter whether Bai Xiaonian repaid this kindness or not, but if she wanted to be friends with Lin Nuan and Song Yao for life, she had to return the money to them.

Knowing Bai Xiaonian was an especially close friend of Lin Nuan’s, the door guards asked someone to drive Bai Xiaonian to the entrance of the house in a battery-operated cart.

When Little Lu heard that Bai Xiaonian had come, he went to the mahjong room. Although he lowered his voice and spoke by Fu Huai’an’s ear, informing him of Bai Xiaonian’s arrival, everyone at the mahjong table could hear him clearly.

Tang Zheng and Bai Jinyu both gazed in Lu Jinnan’s direction, and even Gu Qingcheng did the same.

Sitting calmly on the sofa, Fu Huai’an raised a hand and nodded, holding his phone. ”Got it!”

Fu Huai’an put his phone away and said to the people at the mahjong table, ”I’ll go and inform Xiao Nuan…”

Fu Huai’an spoke like he usually did. Everyone looked at Lu Jinnan. It was Lu Jinnan’s turn. He held an ”8 Characters” tile in his hand and grazed it with his fingers, gaze fixated on his tiles as if he didn’t hear a thing. He casually discarded the ”8 Characters” tile he was holding, then drew another tile. It was another ”8 Characters” tile.

One round had passed, but Lu Jinnan still said nothing.

No one really knew what Lu Jinnan was thinking, but it had been a while since he took a puff of his cigarette, and he looked a little dazed.

”She’s already back. You’re not going over to take a look?” Bai Jinyu asked as he formed a melded sequence with the ”6 Characters” tile Lu Jinnan discarded.

Lu Jinnan’s brows knitted. He tapped away some cigarette ash but still looked calm enough. ”Later…”
