Lin Nuan felt a little excited upon hearing fans were waiting for her.
\"Five minutes from now,\" Fu Huai'an answered.
Fang Yan nodded.
Since there were fans outside, Fang Yan didn't feel good leaving first. She planned to send Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an away before leaving.
Actually, even if there were no fans waiting today, there'd be the media.
Although Fu Huai'an was cautious, news of him accompanying Lin Nuan to the show recording still leaked.
The media outlets that wanted to know if Fu Huai'an planned to return to the Kaide Corporation were like hungry wolves who had sniffed meat, arriving early upon hearing the news. They intended to find Fu Huai'an via Lin Nuan and see if they could sniff out information this way.
Fang Yan wasn't concerned about Fu Huai'an's plans for the future, but with the surging popularity of Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an as a married couple, Fang Yan reckoned this was the best opportunity to bring up Lin Nuan's fame by another notch!
Some people said that this married couple was a walking dog food dispenser, putting on shows of public affection anytime and anywhere, so sweet it was sickening. Some people said that they believed in love once again because of the two of them. Members of the public were very interested in their life as a married couple.
There was an online poll studying netizens' interest level in various celebrity married couples. Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an surprisingly overtook many heavenly kings and queens to become the celebrity married couple that netizens had the most interest in.
Hence, news like Fu Huai'an accompanying Lin Nuan to attend the recording of a variety show was most suitable for building upon that image. Fang Yan hoped those reporters would take more photos and write more about it.
After Fang Yan communicated with the production crew, very quickly, the security people arrived to escort Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an to the parking lot.
They left the dressing room and walked towards the exit at the end of the corridor. It was then that some fans caught sight of Fu Huai'an walking out with Lin Nuan's hand in his and shrieked. The fans who were camping at the door were in a flurry of excitement.
Lin Nuan's fans now called themselves \"little suns.\" The little suns were very excited. They hadn't expected to see Lin Nuan's husband, Fu Huai'an, alongside her.
Seeing the two of them with their fingers intertwined, how could one not be excited?
A thin layer of sweat formed over Lin Nuan's palms when she heard the fans shrieking. She followed Fu Huai'an's closely by his side and left under the escort of the security personnel.
The staff members cleared the path in front of them. Lin Nuan could feel the passion from her fans the minute she exited from the backdoor. They were holding presents they wanted to give to Lin Nuan, and they were also shrieking as they snapped pictures of Lin Nuan with their phones while screaming her name.
Lin Nuan nodded at her fans politely. She smiled at every camera that was pointing at her, making the fans who were taking pictures of her so excited that tears welled up in their eyes.
Lin Nuan had never been one who chased after celebrities, so she couldn't quite understand these fans' excited emotions. However, at this moment, she truly felt the love from her fans.
She felt a warmth in her heart; these fans were truly her little suns.
Fang Yan protected Lin Nuan by her side, one hand supporting her, the other blocking her from the fans and apologizing to those fans at the same time…
Seeing Lin Nuan's arms full of the presents from her fans, Fang Yan started to help Lin Nuan collect them. She performed her responsibilities well and, at the same time, didn't appear cold or arrogant.
Reporters caught wind of this and rushed forward with their gear. They shoved microphones in front of Fu Huai'an, and the lights never stopped flashing.
\"Mr. Fu, there's news that you met the Jiahe Corporation's President Tang Xi in secret yesterday! Are you considering joining the Jiahe Corporation after your long vacation?\"
\"Mr. Fu, there's news that you falling out with the chairman was the main reason you made up your mind to leave the Kaide Corporation this time. Is that really the case?\"
\"Mr. Fu, please answer our questions!\"
Fu Huai'an's handsome and masculine features tensed up. He had one hand holding onto Lin Nuan's petite hand, while the other circled her shoulders as he walked her to the car. The entire time, the reporters' questions kept coming.
\"Mr. Fu! Please say something!\"
\"Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu…\"
Fu Huai'an walked Lin Nuan to the front passenger seat. He had just helped her get into the car when the security personnel could no longer hold back the fans and reporters.
A fan was bumped into by a reporter and fell forward into the arms of a security guard, who lost his balance and fell backward. Thankfully, Fu Huai'an was there to support the security guard, preventing him from falling.
That fan saw Fu Huai'an up close and no longer cared about the fact that she was still in the security guard's arms. She pointed her phone at Fu Huai'an and snapped shots of him furiously…
\"Stop taking photos! Stop taking photos…\"
The security guard managed to block her with much difficulty. Only then did Fu Huai'an manage to walk around the front of the car and get into the driver's seat.
Fang Yan pulled open the backseat door and placed all of the presents Lin Nuan's fans had given her into the car.
The fans and reporters were blocked off by a human barricade formed by a batch of newly arrived security personnel. The fans screamed Lin Nuan's name maniacally, whilst the reporters did the same with Fu Huai'an's name. The combined screaming voices created a din that gave one a headache.
Even though the security personnel kept chasing people away from the car, Fu Huai'an couldn't drive away. Only when they finally managed to get out of the parking lot did Fu Huai'an's car manage to join the line of vehicles on the main road.
It was only after snapping out of the state of shock that Lin Nuan realized that her arms were full of presents from her fans. She shifted those presents to the backseat and only heaved a sigh of relief after putting on her seatbelt.
Her palms were already covered in a layer of sweat. Lin Nuan drew a tissue and wiped her hands as she said, \"This is the first time I encountered a situation like this!\"
\"So, in the future, you can't be without You Nainai by your side!\" Fu Huai'an said.
Lin Nuan nodded.
If Lin Nuan hadn't realized how popular she had become when she was overseas, she experienced it today.
After their meal at the restaurant, Lin Nuan received a call from Tuan Tuan back home. The kid asked Lin Nuan what time she was going to return. He missed his mommy.
Lin Nuan's heart was about to melt. \"Mama and Papa are coming back soon. Mama has a little present for Tuan Tuan! Be good and wait for Mama, okay?\"
On the other end of the line, Tuan Tuan's eyes lit up. He raised the phone with his chubby little hands and nodded his head vigorously, saying, \"Okay!\"
After hanging up the call, Lin Nuan urged Fu Huai'an to hurry home.
However, Lin Nuan hadn't expected to see Liang Mulan at the entrance of Tianfu Bay.
It seemed as if Liang Mulan had been there for a long time. With a shawl around her shoulders, she was carrying her handbag and a paper bag, insisting on waiting there despite the chauffeur's suggestion for her to wait inside the car.
From the car, Lin Nuan saw the way Liang Mulan was peering into the villa as she stood at the entrance, and her heart felt as if it had been harshly squeezed.
When Liang Mulan heard the sound of tires slowing down, she thought it was yet another car passing by, so she shifted to the side to give way to the car.
Lin Nuan's throat vibrated. \"That's…\"
\"Your Lin family mother. She should be here to find you!\" Fu Huai'an didn't find it surprising.
Today at the villa, Lin Nuan didn't say a word about how affectionate Lin Ran and Ji Yun were as a mother-and-daughter duo, and she even encouraged Lin Ran to visit Ji Yun more often.
Lin Nuan's biological mother, Ji Yun, had shown unreserved love towards Lin Ran, and Lin Nuan could be so magnanimous towards that. Judging another person's feelings by one's own, why did Lin Ran stop Liang Mulan from seeing Lin Nuan time and time again?
