Chapter 400 - Open Marriage

At Starlight Entertainment.

Xian Nuan sobbed a little after she ended the call with Luo Wu Han because she felt that he was blaming everything on her. She had always been a highly work-driven person, and she had tasked all the responsibilities of parenting to Luo Wu Han. She didn't really know what families were, and neither did she know what love was. The only thing that she knew was work, and she only knew that she had to work hard to climb to the top. That was why she didn't know what kind of responsibilities she had as a mother.

Xian Nuan believed that as long as she gave birth to her child, her role as a mother was completed. She didn't know that nurturing and caring for the child was also part of her responsibilities as a mother. A big part of the reason why she didn't know what the duties of a mother were was that her own mother was like that as well. She never really got the chance to see her mother because her mother was a highly work-driven person and had spent most of the time on work. Her mother had been absent during her younger days, and so she never received the motherly love. Meanwhile, her father had been the one thing care for her and raising her, and that's why the only love that she had probably felt was fatherly love. That was why she believed that Luo Wu Han should be the one responsible for taking care of Luo Bing Bing and not her.

"Take a deep breath. Don't let whatever that Luo Wu Han had said get to you. You don't have to get so angry… It is bad for your health..."

Fan Hui comforted Xian Nuan as he held her hands. His hand then gently stroke the back of her hands in hopes of making her feel less angry. His eyes were filled with the pain he felt for her.

Xian Nuan had a shareholders' meeting earlier on when Luo Wu Han called her, but there wasn't anyone else in the room now other than Fan Hui, who was the major shareholder. Fan Hui knew what kind of relationship Xian Nuan and Luo Wu Han had, and that was why he asked everyone else to leave the meeting room.

Fan Hui was the one that Xian Nuan had been spending her free time with. Whenever she didn't go home or whenever she was down, he was always there for her.

Unlike Luo Wu Han, who had slept with many secretaries, Xian Nuan only had this shareholder as a partner. Fan Hui was a very kind and gentle person, and the relationship between Xian Nuan and Fan Hui was more like a real married couple compared to Xian Nuan and Luo Wu Han.

Fan Hui actually loved Xian Nuan for more than twenty years already, but she didn't know about the feelings that he had for her. The only reason why he didn't profess his love to her was that she was married. He knew that it was wrong for him to be sleeping with her. He also knew that it was wrong for him to even simply care for her like her partner when she was already married. However, he felt that since Luo Wu Han didn't cherish her and had agreed on an open marriage with her, then he could at least shower his love for her in a different way with a different role. He was happy enough that he could hold his hands and live a life with her like a married couple in secret. He knew that she didn't know what love was, but he had been trying to teach her what it was in hopes of her understanding it and then turn around to be with him forever.

Fan Hui didn't know why he loved Xian Nuan despite the things that she had been doing. Yes, she did some bad things to keep Starlight Entertainment going. However, the love he had for her didn't diminish because of those things. In fact, it might have even made his feelings for her grew because of how hard she worked to protect her company and how serious she looked. He also didn't understand why he stayed single for someone that was already married. Perhaps he was just waiting for her to turn around, and when that day comes, he could truly have her in his arms.

Xian Nuan didn't know why she always felt very at ease when she was with Fan Hui, but she really enjoyed the feeling she had when she was around him. She felt calm and secure whenever he was around. It was as though no matter what happened, he would be there to support her and be her shelter.

Xian Nuan took in a deep breath to calm herself down before she spoke, "How could I not get angry? Luo Wu Han is blaming me for whatever that had happened, but I am also suffering... I am actually suffering more than him, and yet he blames everything on me and says that I didn't take good care of Bing Bing... He said that he would take care of Bing Bing, and I trusted him to do that. However, he didn't, and he is blaming me for not taking good care of her... Besides, I am also angry at myself... I should have known that Blue Diamond Entertainment was up to no good when Rise joined the competition… Blue Diamond Entertainment has always been going against us... I should have prepared myself for such situations... However, I also feel very conflicted because I really didn't know that Ning's Fashion would do such things... I really don't know how I should feel... I feel angry at myself and yet angry at Luo Wu Han for blaming me..."

Xian Nuan teared up while she spoke, and Fan Hui used his thumb to wipe away the tears and gently cupped her cheeks.
