Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Lin Jingquan and Lin Jinghui, and even Lin Chen and Lin Nuan, had all bought a smartphone for Old Master Lin before; however, Old Master Lin always said he wasn’t used to it, so he ended up giving them away to servants or the chauffeur.

Unexpectedly, at this age, Old Master Lin was suddenly thinking of using a smartphone.

After hearing Lin Nuan say that the brightness had been adjusted to the lowest setting, Old Master Lin put on his presbyopic glasses again. The two of them had their heads close together as they looked at the phone screen. Old Master Lin then asked, “How do I operate it?”

Lin Nuan attentively explained how to adjust the screen brightness to its maximum…

The screen brightened up, and Lin Nuan could see that it was her publicity poster for “The Exorcist” on the display.

The image was that of the back view of Lin Nuan in a black robe. Director Chen had asked the photographer to take this photo back then, and on it were the words, “You exorcise, and I’ll succumb…”

Lin Nuan’s eyes reddened. She recalled how Old Master Lin was asking if it was her in the photo, and she felt terrible, as if her heart was all stuffed up.

Being considerate of the fact that Old Master Lin was advanced in age and had poor eyesight, Lin Nuan increased the text size on the phone screen.

After adjusting the settings for a while, Lin Nuan returned the phone to Old Master Lin. “Grandpa, take a look and see if there’s anything else that needs to be adjusted.”

“Where do I read the news?”

Lin Nuan downloaded a news app for Old Master Lin and taught him how to read the news.

Old Master Lin’s fingers swiped on the screen for a bit, and then he asked several more questions…

The grandfather-granddaughter duo stayed together like that for a long while, and when Assistant Liu came back into the room with the chrysanthemum tea, they were still fidgeting with the phone.

“Old Master, if you’re done resting, we should go out! Old Master Fu was still asking for you earlier…” Assistant Liu said in a low voice in Old Master Lin’s ear.

“Has the engagement started?” Old Master Lin held his presbyopic glasses, his squinting eyes not leaving the screen as he asked.

“Not yet…”

“Then what’s the hurry! We’ll still make it in time if we go out later when it starts. I get mad when I see that mistress of Fu Qingquan!” Old Master Lin frowned, displaying his temper and not caring if he was in someone else’s territory.

“Old Master…” Assistant Liu smiled helplessly and threw Lin Nuan a pleading gaze, as if asking for help. “The doctor said that your eyes aren’t suited to look at screens over a prolonged period!”

Old Master Lin glanced up at Assistant Liu. “The doctor said your lungs aren’t good and advised you to smoke less. Have you heeded his words?”

Assistant Liu was speechless.

“The pot calling the kettle black!” Old Master Lin put away his phone and removed his presbyopic glasses, handing them over to Assistant Liu. His deep gaze turned to Lin Nuan. “How does Fu Huai’an treat you?”

Lin Nuan smiled and nodded. “He treats me very well…”

Not believing Lin Nuan’s words lightly, Old Master Lin sized her up. His brows furrowed. “How come you’re thinner?”

It had been many years since he saw Lin Nuan. Old Master Lin knew the kid was deliberately avoiding him!

He was originally not willing to come to the Fu manor to attend the illegitimate son’s engagement party, but later, he thought about it…

Firstly, Fu Qingquan and Old Master Lin were alumni back in the day. To come here today would be considered giving him face due to their business partnership. Fu Qingquan had always been a snob, so it was rare for him to give Old Master Lin a call personally—one must know that the Lins and the Fus were never on the same level!

Secondly, although that boy was an illegitimate son, it wasn’t his choice to be one, so he was an innocent party.

Thirdly, Old Master Lin wanted to see if he could bump into Lin Nuan here.

“I need to appear on camera, and I’ll look better if I slim down.” Lin Nuan raised her hands to her petite face and smiled at Old Master Lin.

“Why would you look good on camera when you’re so skinny?” Old Master Lin frowned. “Pick a time to go back home and stay for a while. I’ll get Auntie Ma to boost your body constitution. Don’t get pregnant when your body constitution is out of balance, that’s not good for you!”

Old Master Lin’s tone of voice didn’t leave any room for negotiation, as usual. Lin Nuan clenched her fists by her sides, ultimately not able to tell him that she wouldn’t ever be going back.

Under the warm-toned lighting, Old Master Lin saw Lin Nuan’s lowered gaze. He propped his arms against the sofa as he stood up and adjusted his suit, then said, “Remember to call your grandmother before you come back. She will surely be happy!”

Hearing this, Assistant Liu thought that the grandfather-granddaughter duo had already talked things out and was feeling glad about that. He then opened the door for Old Master Lin.

Watching as Old Master Lin walked out of the room, Lin Nuan remained standing in the resting room. Thinking that Lin Nuan was going to leave the room after them, Assistant Liu didn’t close the door.

Lin Nuan had just started walking out when she heard someone criticizing Fu Huai’an…

“No wonder you kept shaking when you saw that Fu Huai’an! That Fu Huai’an is too atrocious! I have to find Fu Qingquan to settle scores! After all, Mu Guangpu is Mu Mantong’s cousin! Fu Huai’an is but a maternal grandson of the Fus and is only a junior! How could he be so brutal as to make Guangpu impotent!”

Lin Nuan heard the voice coming from the room next door and thought it sounded a little familiar.

“Mom!” A gentle and soft female voice sounded anxious. “Stop making a fuss! Mu Mantong is getting engaged today! If we blow things up and Mu Mantong’s engagement gets called off, Guangpu will suffer the consequences! All these years, outsiders only see how glamorous Guangpu has it, but I see it with my own eyes, how Guangpu has suffered in a bid to suck up to Old Master Mu! Stop making trouble!”

“Are you silly or what! This concerns the rest of your life! Now that Guangpu is impotent, you have to make Fu Huai’an responsible for the rest of your life!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Nuan walked to the door of that resting room, anger surging up within her.

Make Fu Huai’an responsible? How would they make him responsible!

She peeked in through the slightly ajar door and saw that there was a mother and daughter pair inside the room. The daughter was teary-faced and holding onto her mother’s arm.

Lin Nuan got a proper look at the slightly plump middle-aged woman—it was the same woman who had accused her cat of eating her Showa koi.

Lin Nuan narrowed her eyes and whipped out her phone from her bag, turning on the video function.

This was a well-tried and tested method by Lin Nuan!

Simple, aggressive, and very useful…

“Furthermore!” That middle-aged woman lowered her voice. “All the better if we blow this matter up! You see… previously, people were saying that Old Master Mu made Guangpu change his surname to Mu because he had the intention of grooming him to become the successor of the Mus! This Mu Mantong is a cripple and cannot walk, so if the husband she seeks comes from an unworthy family, Guangpu will then be able to hold up his head! Even if you can no longer count on him in sexual matters, you can count on money!”

The younger woman paused momentarily as she stared at her mother…

“What’s more, even if we don’t manage to destroy Mu Mantong’s engagement this time around, you can take the chance to let everyone find out that Mu Guangpu has become impotent. That way, it’ll be easier for you to get a divorce from him in the future!”
