681 Paid No Attention to Old Madam Fu
Tuan Tuan gave the question some serious thought. With his eyes lowered and tiny tear droplets still visible on his dense eyelashes, he grabbed Lin Nuan’s sleeve with his little hand. Although he was petrified, Tuan Tuan felt it was more important that he retrieve his necklace. And so, the little one shook his head resolutely. “Not afraid!”
Lin Nuan let out a long exhale, her heart aching for Tuan Tuan. She really regretted agreeing to come to the Fu family mansion today!
She should have proposed they reminisce Fu Huai’an’s mother as a family of three!
Today there was fury in Lin Nuan’s heart. Originally, she hadn’t wanted Tuan Tuan to see her angry manner, but now was the time Tuan Tuan most lacked a sense of security, so she was all the more unwilling to leave him alone.
“Let’s go!” Lin Nuan carried Tuan Tuan and opened the door.
Fu Cheng, who was standing at the top of the stairs and grabbing Ye Ziqi’s collar, released his grip. Seeing Lin Nuan with Tuan Tuan in her arms, he hurriedly asked, “Is Tuan Tuan okay?”
Fu Cheng glanced towards Tuan Tuan. He originally wanted to touch Tuan Tuan’s little head, but he was afraid that Lin Nuan might be unhappy, so he retracted his raised hand.
“Didn’t you ask for a confrontation? Let’s head downstairs and have one!” Lin Nuan’s gaze swept over Ye Ziqi’s clearly crumpled collar as she spoke with a cold face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTuan Tuan had his arms around Lin Nuan’s neck. When he straightened his back and looked towards Fu Cheng and Ye Ziqi, it was clear that his eyes and nose were red from crying earlier.
When they got downstairs, Lin Nuan saw Su Manman holding one child in each hand, and both of Fu Cheng’s kids were shouting for their father and mother.
Once Lin Nuan got downstairs, before even setting Tuan Tuan on the floor, she looked at Fu Cheng’s son. Her vision swept over the pendant hanging from his neck as she said, “Fu Cheng, first, ask your son to return the pendant he snatched away from my son. We can settle scores after that!” action
Lin Nuan turned her head to look at Fu Cheng and Ye Ziqi.
“No!” Fu Mingming clutched the pendant before his chest. “This is mine!”
“In order to snatch away a pendant, he resorted to killing a person. Your child is still so young. I wonder if he was imperceptibly influenced by what he constantly sees and hears. Or, is he so vicious by nature that it makes one’s hair stand?” Lin Nuan didn’t bother to hide her disgust as she stared at Fu Mingming. “To give such a kid a few slaps and then toss him into the lake to cleanse his dirty heart that reeks of a rotten stench, that is considered letting him off easily!”
Lin Nuan’s words were too sharp.
Old Madam Fu appeared displeased, but it was also true that her heart ached for Tuan Tuan. So she said, “It was merely kids playing around. Is it as serious as you put it? Why are you speaking so harshly to a child? Don’t argue a point to death here!”
Old Madam Fu then spoke in a gentle voice to Fu Mingming, who was still crying. She said, “I believe Mingming didn’t mean it. Mingming, you’re in the wrong here, so you need to apologize to Tuan Tuan! In the future, you cannot bully Tuan Tuan again. You’re older than Tuan Tuan and are considered his senior. How could you bully Tuan Tuan?”
Lin Nuan snickered in her heart, knowing very well why Old Madam Fu was showing such leniency towards Fu Mingming. Fu Huai’an had yet to return to the Kaide Corporation, meaning Old Madam Fu still needed to rely on Fu Cheng!
Old Madam Fu was a person who placed her own interests above everything else, so Lin Nuan never hoped to depend on Old Madam Fu to claim justice for her. But still, Tuan Tuan had her! And Su Manman! If all else failed, there was still Fu Huai’an!
Based on how much Fu Huai’an doted on Tuan Tuan, Fu Cheng’s family shouldn’t expect to live well from now on.
“This is my brother’s pendant!” Fu Xinxin said pitifully to Old Madam Fu. She cried and exclaimed, “Grandma! This is my brother’s pendant, not Tuan Tuan’s! We didn’t push Tuan Tuan! He fell into the lake by himself! Mingming even wanted to help pull him up!”
Lin Nuan nearly laughed out loud. This young daughter of Fu Cheng had really widened her horizon, lying without batting an eyelash. Lying came so naturally to her! Lin Nuan almost wanted to clap for this little girl and award her the youngest Best Actress Award ever!
Lin Nuan watched the little girl perform, as if viewing a circus show. She snickered and waited for the little girl to finish her words.
Other people might not know where this pendant came from, but Su Manman was clear about it!
This pendant was personally given to Lin Nuan as a gift by Shu Xin when Lin Nuan attended the variety show with Su Manman!
Furthermore, this pendant was carved by Venerable Konglong. She heard that Shu Xin went to great lengths to get Venerable Konglong to carve two of them. Not to mention, her name was carved and hidden in those complicated prints. Su Manman didn’t believe that Fu Cheng’s daughter had the capability to ask Venerable Konglong to carve her a pendant at her young age!
Even if she had the capability, how could it be such a coincidence… that the pendant she asked Venerable Konglong to carve her was identical to Tuan Tuan’s?
“Mine!” Tuan Tuan pointed at the pendant, looking at Lin Nuan anxiously. “Mama gave me! Mine! Mine!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLin Nuan gently caressed Tuan Tuan’s back, then reassured him softly, “No hurry, Tuan Tuan. Mama will surely get back your necklace for you!”
“This was a present from me to Mingming! Tuan Tuan, how could you lie? If you like it, just tell Mingming. No matter how much he likes it, he would give it to you! Mingming is your senior… he is at least this sensible! Papa and Mama always taught us to give in to little kids who are younger than us!” Fu Xinxin then gazed at her father pitifully, sobbing in an upset manner. “Papa, I gave this to Mingming!”
The minute Ye Ziqi heard this, she exploded. As if she was the only person with reason in this world, even her voice raised by several pitches as she said, “It’s just a pendant. If your son really likes it, I can ask Mingming to give it to your son. But how could you be so vicious as to accuse Mingming of pushing your son into the lake!”
After that angry speech, Ye Ziqi covered her lips with her hand, her shaky voice sounding incredibly mournful. “Just because the Fu family’s blood doesn’t run in our bodies, you ganged up to frame my son? Do you get a kick out of this? Do you think we wanted to come to your Fu house? Our Ye family has status in Haicheng too! It’s not as if we don’t have a home in Haicheng!”
“Ziqi!” Fu Cheng subtly warned her with his low voice.
“Did I say anything wrong?” As Ye Ziqi turned around and glared at Fu Cheng, tears slipped down her cheeks.
Fu Cheng’s throat vibrated. As if he couldn’t bear to look at Ye Ziqi, his gaze turned to Old Madam Fu. He said, “Mom, I’m sorry to have caused all this unpleasantness on Big Sister’s birthday! I’ll take Ziqi and the kids to stay at a hotel!”
Old Madam Fu frowned. “You staying at home is fine, why do you want to go stay at a hotel?”
She then looked at Lin Nuan. “Lin Nuan, you went a little overboard this time!”
Chu Xun stood by Old Madam Fu’s side, her eyes constantly straying upstairs, fearful that Fu Huai’an might come down at any moment.
On the other hand, Chu Xun was popping champagne in her heart as she watched Old Madam Fu make things difficult for Lin Nuan.
The corners of Lin Nuan’s lips turned up as she snickered. She ignored and paid no attention to Old Madam Fu. She merely said, “Framed your son for pushing Tuan Tuan into the water just because of a pendant?”
