563 I’m Not Done Preparing Your Proposal Gif

Fu Huai'an had said previously that Qin Zhe had the capability to vanish from the plane quietly.

Fu Huai'an saw it just now, but he didn't stop Qin Zhe because he didn't want Naseer's men to discover him.

Qin Zhe was a soldier, so it was only right that he accomplished his mission…

While Fu Huai'an wanted to save him on account of their camaraderie, as a soldier, he first had to ensure the successful accomplishment of the mission, not his own life.

It was much harder accomplishing such a mission away from the troops than it was to do it in an aboveboard fashion. Qin Zhe had watched as Feng Yang died; after breaking down, he very quickly pulled himself up. He knew what his goal was, and he was willing to sacrifice his life to accomplish it, even if… Fu Huai'an had made things so clear to him.

Soldiers weren't politicians—they made decisions based on whether something should or should not be done, and they wouldn't weigh the pros and cons like politicians.

"Go back!" Fu Huai'an said to Little Lu.

…

Before Tuan Tuan fell asleep, Lin Nuan folded a paper crane for him. Although it was to coax a kid, she had asked Little Lu to tell Tuan Tuan that she and Fu Huai'an had prepared a surprise for him. She was feeling troubled yesterday and forgot all about it, so she had to make up for it last minute today.

After coaxing Tuan Tuan to sleep, Lin Nuan lay down beside Tuan Tuan and hugged the warm and soft little one in her arms, still feeling anxious.

It was already so late, and Fu Huai'an wasn't back yet. Lin Nuan feared that something might have happened to him.

Lin Nuan had thought that this overseas trip was a happy event; she didn't expect to be on tenterhooks constantly—this went against their original hopes for the trip.

Lin Nuan suddenly recalled that the man in Iraq who told her that Lu Xiangsi didn't die seemed to be Qin Zhe…

However, later, Lu Xiangsi still ended up losing her life in Iraq.

Lin Nuan lowered her head and looked at Tuan Tuan in her embrace, hugging the child even tighter.

It was pitch-black outside the windows, and so quiet that Lin Nuan could hear the sound of waves crashing against the shore, one wave after another. As time passed… Lin Nuan felt more anxious with each passing wave.

After a long while, Lin Nuan heard the sound of the door opening gently. She turned her head towards Tuan Tuan's bedroom door.

Through the cracks, Lin Nuan could see a dark shadow. Her heart raised to her throat.

The door opened; it was Fu Huai'an's tall and broad figure standing at the door.

Lin Nuan heaved a sigh of relief and turned back to fix the blanket on Tuan Tuan. Only after leaving the room and gently closing the door behind her did she ask Fu Huai'an, "Have you sent him away?"

Fu Huai'an didn't want Lin Nuan to worry, so he smiled and nodded. "En!"

After letting out a long exhale, Lin Nuan spread out her arms and hugged Fu Huai'an's narrow waist, burying her face in his chest. "After accompanying Tuan Tuan to The Lost Chambers Aquarium, let's return home! I'm constantly on tenterhooks here!"

Hugging Lin Nuan tightly in his arms, Fu Huai'an smiled slightly. "It's too early to be going back. I'm not done preparing your proposal gift!"

"There's nothing more important than safety. Even if there's no proposal gift, I'm already married to you! We're a married couple in the eyes of the law!" Lin Nuan gazed at Fu Huai'an and emphasized.

"Lu Jinnan's already on his way here with Bai Xiaonian. Do we dump them here while we go back ourselves?" Fu Huai'an cupped Lin Nuan's petite face in his hands and gently kissed her. "Stop worrying. Running into Qin Zhe was merely a little accident. Just relax! We won't be staying very long in Dubai. After accompanying Tuan Tuan to The Lost Chambers Aquarium, we'll set off for Venice."

Lin Nuan didn't make a sound, surprised that Lu Jinnan was coming over with Bai Xiaonian.

After all, Bai Xiaonian's legs were still in that state…

Turning Lin Nuan around, Fu Huai'an hugged her from behind, moving slowly towards their master bedroom.

Lin Nuan's chilly back was closely pressed against Fu Huai'an's firm chest, which was without an ounce of excess fat. Fu Huai'an's strong and forceful heartbeat, and his scalding body temperature… gradually put Lin Nuan's heart at ease.

Fu Huai'an spoke in Lin Nuan's ear in a soft voice, talking about Venice's scenery, saying he liked Venice's afternoon sunset the best.

That night, Lin Nuan didn't sleep well in Fu Huai'an's arms.

Lin Nuan had nightmares the entire night, either about someone pointing a gun at Fu Huai'an or that she had killed someone with a gun.

The next morning, when Lin Nuan woke up, she found dark circles under her eyes, to no surprise.

When they were having breakfast in the dining room, Bai Xiaonian was pushed into the room by Lu Jinnan—they arrived at midnight.

"Nuan Nuan!" Bai Xiaonian called out to Lin Nuan in a joyful manner.

Lin Nuan smiled at Bai Xiaonian. "I heard from Little Lu that you guys arrived at midnight. I thought you would sleep in until noon!"

"Uncle!" It was rare for Tuan Tuan to address Lu Jinnan. He had heard from Little Lu that Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian were going to join them to eat and have fun. Although their family of three's trip was disrupted, Tuan Tuan was still very happy. So long as Papa and Mama were with him, Tuan Tuan didn't mind who else followed along.

"Sister!" Tuan Tuan obediently addressed Bai Xiaonian as Sister.

In the past, Bai Xiaonian had taught Tuan Tuan that he must address her as Sister when he saw her.

"Our Tuan Tuan is so obedient!" Bai Xiaonian gleefully glanced at Lu Jinnan.

"You've been lowered in seniority. What's there to be happy about…" Lu Jinnan "tsked" at Bai Xiaonian.

"I don't mind! Proves that I'm young. Not like some people who appear old and can only be an uncle!" Bai Xiaonian shrugged.

Lu Jinnan was speechless.

Fu Huai'an placed a Xiaolongbao on Lin Nuan's plate as if there was no one around them, saying, "After we're done with breakfast, go upstairs and sleep a little more. We'll set off after you wake up!"

Lin Nuan was in Fu Huai'an's arms the entire night, so he knew that Lin Nuan didn't sleep well. Add to that Lin Nuan's dark circles and the fact that she didn't appear too well, and anyone could tell that Lin Nuan didn't sleep well.

Bai Xiaonian got the wrong idea and thought that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an had fooled around until a late hour last night, causing Lin Nuan to be deprived of sleep.

Lu Jinnan pushed Bai Xiaonian to sit by Lin Nuan's side. Bai Xiaonian nudged Lin Nuan with her arm.

Seeing Lin Nuan manage a smile at her with effort, Bai Xiaonian could sense something was wrong, so she subconsciously glanced in Fu Huai'an's direction.

Fu Huai'an set the milk in front of Lin Nuan and didn't appear different from usual, so Bai Xiaonian couldn't tell if something was amiss.

Bai Xiaonian wouldn't overly interfere in her friends' relationship matters, so she lowered her head and finished the porridge Lu Jinnan had set in front of her without saying a word.

After breakfast, Lin Nuan looked at Tuan Tuan's sparkly large eyes and couldn't bear to disappoint the child, so she stroked Tuan Tuan's little head and said, "I'm not tired. It's just that I had a night full of dreams last night. Let's take Tuan Tuan to The Lost Chambers Aquarium!"

Tuan Tuan could also see the dark circles under Lin Nuan's eyes. His chubby little hand was rested on Lin Nuan's knee as he gazed up at her, appearing worried.

Lin Nuan got a scare indeed. Within the short span of one day, so many things had happened. First, it was the accident… then Qin Zhe had raised a gun at Fu Huai'an. After breakfast, though, those emotions had eased.
