Chapter 443: Not Even Realizing That Fu Huai’an Had Entered the Kitchen

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Fu Huai’an had one arm around Little Candy, the other holding onto his phone as he looked through his email with his brows furrowed.

Lin Nuan had little Tuan Tuan in her arms. She was seated on the kid’s stool while looking at Tuan Tuan’s drawings, her lips somewhat arched.

You Nainai saw Little Candy lying on Fu Huai’an’s shoulder, her chubby little face squeezed, sleeping rather soundly. Her face appeared pinkish from the warmth, and her eyelashes were long, dense, and curled, like that of a barbie doll.

Instinctively afraid of Fu Huai’an, You Nainai’s footsteps halted at the entrance of the classroom. In a low voice, she said, “Sir Fu…”

Fu Huai’an looked up, his deep gaze creating a sense of panic in You Nainai.

You Nainai was late today because of Tang Zheng…

Tang Zheng demanded to know whose daughter Little Candy was. You Nainai claimed that she was the child she had with another man, but Tang Zheng refused to believe her. He followed You Nainai around for an entire day just so he could get an answer.

You Nainai dared not tell her mother the relationship between Tang Zheng and Little Candy. Without getting her story straight with Little Candy, she was afraid the heartless Little Candy would spout nonsense in front of her granny. You Nainai feared she would be beaten to death and so she didn’t dare let her mother fetch Little Candy.

You Nainai finally managed to get Tang Zheng to shoo with great effort. When she got to the kindergarten, she was surprised to see Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan.

“She fell asleep…” Fu Huai’an locked his phone screen and carried Little Candy to You Nainai.

You Nainai hurriedly took Little Candy into her arms…

When she landed in her arms, Little Candy mumbled, “Daddy…”

You Nainai felt like her heart was struck for a moment. With reddened eyes, she bit her lip and thanked him in a low voice. “Thanks, Sir Fu, I’ll leave with the child first…”

Regarding Tang Zheng, neither You Nainai nor Fu Huai’an made mention of him.

“Wait a minute…” Lin Nuan rose with Tuan Tuan in her arms, handing the jacket she just took off to Fu Huai’an, to cover Little Candy with.

You Nainai tried to refuse but heard Lin Nuan say, “The kid is still little, and it’s freezing out there… she’s going to catch the flu otherwise!”

“Give you a ride?” Fu Huai’an asked.

You Nainai shook her head. “It’s okay, I drove here…”

You Nainai smiled at Lin Nuan. “Thanks…”

Lin Nuan returned the smile.

Right after You Nainai left with Little Candy, the previously asleep Tuan Tuan started to wake up.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, saw that he was in Lin Nuan’s arms, then rubbed his chubby little face against Lin Nuan. “Mama… are we still going to the movies?”

Tuan Tuan’s soft and warm little body was nested in Lin Nuan’s embrace, asking Lin Nuan the question before he even opened his eyes properly.

“Yes! We’re taking Tuan Tuan out for some delicious food, then watching ‘Hotel Transylvania,’ sound good?”

Such comedies were popular with kids at the cinema…

Tuan Tuan heard from his little friends at the kindergarten today that their parents took them to watch “Hotel Transylvania.” They said that there were many adorable monsters in the movie and that it was super fun. He was full of envy as he listened to them talk.

Tuan Tuan’s eyes lit up, and he nodded his head vigorously.

…

At the cinema, the best-selling movies were “Hotel Transylvania” and “Summer in Phoenix City,” which starred Su Manman.

It was Tuan Tuan’s first time at the movies, so everything was fascinating to him…

In the past, Fu Huai’an never had the time to take Tuan Tuan to the movies.

He sat obediently between Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an, popcorn and coke in his arms.

He bit the straw and sucked in a big gulp, then leaned back in his seat and raised the coke for Lin Nuan with both arms, letting Lin Nuan drink some as well.

Lin Nuan grabbed Tuan Tuan’s raised hands and took a sip. Tuan Tuan’s ears flushed as he shyly held on tight to the coke and took another big gulp himself.

In the theater, laughter was plentiful, especially that of children.

After the movie ended, Fu Huai’an was afraid Tuan Tuan might get stomped by the throng of moviegoers exiting the place. Therefore, he held the little fellow in one arm, the other arm holding Lin Nuan’s as they left the theater.

As they left, on the two sides of the corridors were posters from Su Manman’s movie, “Summer in Phoenix City.”

Lin Nuan heard people discussing Su Manman’s new movie, “The Exorcist,” and her ears perked up—likely due to the fact that she would be participating in it herself.

“‘Summer in Phoenix City’ was so good, Su Manman’s acting was excellent! I’m looking forward to Su Manman’s ‘The Exorcist’! As a hardcore fan of this novel, I feel that Su Manman will be able to interpret the Feng Wuluan in my heart!”

“Yeah! I think so too! I feel that Su Manman is exactly like the image of Feng Wuluan in my heart. But… I’m a little pessimistic about the choice to cast that Lin Nuan as Feng Wuluan’s previous reincarnation…”

“Right, everyone around me says so too! Feng Wuluan’s previous reincarnation was so carefree and unrestrained. The despair after losing her lover, I feel that, as a non-professional actor, Lin Nuan won’t be able to express it well…”

“I am personally rather fond of Lin Nuan as a talk show host, but I feel that Lin Nuan’s disposition is a million miles off base compared to Feng Wuluan. Although I haven’t watched the movie, I feel that Lin Nuan is going to pull down the acting standard of ‘The Exorcist.’”

“Aye! I thought that Su Manman would take on the role of Feng Wuluan’s previous reincarnation herself. Even though I know from the original novel that Feng Wuluan’s looks changed from her previous to current life, but to cast Lin Nuan instead… It’s so awkward that I don’t even wanna watch anymore. The favorite character of so many of the novel’s hardcore fans was the previous reincarnation of Feng Wuluan!”

“I have insider news. I heard that when Lin Nuan went for the shoot, they had to do endless takes for her shot. The director got so mad he ordered Lin Nuan to go home. I’m not sure if they’re gonna replace Lin Nuan, but it’d be wonderful if they do! How nice would it be if they could find a proper actress for this role!”

As Lin Nuan listened in on their conversation, her heart sank.

She recalled the endless NG scenes and the way the director sat there with his brows deeply furrowed…

Regarding this character, Lin Nuan felt that she wasn’t able to fully interpret it because she wasn’t trying hard enough.

Even though it was only one scene!

It wasn’t enough to simply read the script. For her to understand the real Feng Wuluan, Lin Nuan felt she had to read the entire novel to do the job well.

…

After putting Tuan Tuan to sleep, Lin Nuan washed up and laid on the bed. She turned on her laptop and found the original novel of “The Exorcist.”

“Still not sleeping?” Fu Huai’an asked as he finished his phone call and entered the room to find Lin Nuan reading on her laptop at the head of the bed.

“En!” Lin Nuan held the laptop and lifted the sheets. “I’ll go read outside! Else I’ll disturb your sleep…”

“What are you reading?” Fu Huai’an placed his phone at the head of the bed and asked Lin Nuan.

“The original novel of ‘The Exorcist.’ You can sleep first, I’m going to spend a good while reading…”

Today at the cinema, Fu Huai’an had overheard other people’s criticisms of Lin Nuan.

Fu Huai’an had no reason to stop Lin Nuan from putting in effort to perform her job well.

Lin Nuan put on a pair of anti-glare glasses and sat in the kitchen downstairs, perusing the original novel.

There were a total of more than 1.5 million words in the novel. Lin Nuan read each and every word very carefully, not even realizing that Fu Huai’an had entered the kitchen.
