Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 1019: He Had Never Felt So Panicked and Awkward Before!

Now that he knew his relationship with Lin Nuan, Cen Mo had no idea how to talk to her.

Thinking back to the past, the sarcastic manner he spoke to Lin Nuan with…

“Skk…” Cen Mo gasped, then raised a hand to his forehead, vexed.

Back then, why was he so ruthless with his words, just so that he could get a kick out of it?

Great. How was he going to make peace with her now?

From how Cen Mo saw it, his position in Lin Nuan’s heart was perhaps not even like that of an ordinary friend. How was he going to compare in closeness to Lin Nuan’s brother at the Lins, Lin Chen…

Why had he forced himself to this step!

In the past, Lin Chen would always tell Cen Mo not to take things to the extreme, lest paths crossed again in the future. Cen Mo denounced his advice to be nonsense—towards people he considered to be beneath him, there wasn’t a need to be lenient. As for people stronger than him, they wouldn’t need him to spare them anyway!

But now…

Cen Mo pressed hard upon his temples. He had never felt so panicked and awkward before!

What was he going to say to Lin Nuan later?

Cen Mo got up and practiced with a frown. “You’re back? Have some bird’s nest porridge!”

After rehearsing in a soft voice, Cen Mo frowned even harder. Did he sound too stiff and stern?

“You’ve worked hard. Quickly come and have some bird’s nest porridge…”

After those words came out of his mouth, Cen Mo’s face turned even darker. This was totally unlike him! It made him sound somewhat toady. He covered his face with both hands.

After adjusting his attitude, Cen Mo said again in a low voice, “Your sis-in-law got the kitchen to make you some bird’s nest porridge. Come and try?”

Something still felt off…

From the start, Lin Nuan only said she wanted to find the child her birth parents lost and had never said something like she was his younger sister!

Cen Mo’s brows furrowed deeply, and he bit his thumb. This was an action Cen Mo would only do when he was nervous. It had been many years since he did this.

No matter how complex Cen Mo’s feelings were, Lin Nuan still entered eventually…

Fu Huai’an had one arm circled around Lin Nuan’s thin shoulders, the other hand carrying Tuan Tuan. His suit jacket was unbuttoned, and the white shirt inside had a stiff collar, exuding his mature aura.

Cen Mo stood up and looked towards the door, looking like he had something to say but yet hadn’t thought of how to say it.

“You’re back!” Song Yao stuck her head out of the kitchen. “Nuan Nuan, come quick! The bird’s nest your older brother had made for you and Tuan Tuan is ready. Pregnant women need to eat more of this, as it’s good for the baby. When your baby is born, your baby will have fair and tender skin. It’s also good for kids’ health!”

Song Yao naturally said the words “your older brother.” Cen Mo casually stuck his hands into his pockets, clenching his fists. He was worried that Lin Nuan would refuse the porridge and, by doing that, refuse to acknowledge him as her older brother.

Lin Nuan removed the tweed cap from Tuan Tuan’s head and stroked his head. Watching Fu Huai’an lower the kid, she said, “Is there anything else to eat? My appetite seems especially good lately!”

“Saihand! Get the kitchen to prepare something!”

Right after Lin Nuan spoke, Cen Mo called out to Saihand. Although his voice was stern, his expression when looking at Lin Nuan wasn’t. His nervous gaze flickered, looking so panicky that even Saihand couldn’t bear to watch on anymore.

“It’s like that when you’re pregnant!” Song Yao pulled Lin Nuan and Tuan Tuan towards the dining room. “Once, when I was soundly asleep, I was jolted awake because of hunger, do you believe it? That was when I just discovered I was pregnant! At that time, I could eat especially well and had a great urge to eat. I would sneak to the kitchen in the middle of the night to look for food, and your brother would think I had run away. He would shout for Saihand, wanting to run out the door to capture me back before even changing out of his pajamas!”

Only after Song Yao finished speaking did she suddenly realize she had blabbed to Lin Nuan about the way she interacted with Cen Mo…

Lin Nuan gazed at Song Yao, her brows knitted.

“An exaggerated description!” Song Yao smiled and hooked her arm with Lin Nuan’s. “Quick, come and have a taste of the bird’s nest!”

Cen Mo remained standing with both hands in his pockets, gazing at Fu Huai’an, who had a hint of a smile on his face. It felt so weird that Fu Huai’an had suddenly become his brother-in-law.

“Let’s all have some together!” Cen Mo said.

Fu Huai’an nodded, looking as deep and mature as always. “Okay!”

Cen Mo and Fu Huai’an walked to the entrance of the dining room. They saw Tuan Tuan standing on a chair and obediently pushing his little bowl to Lin Nuan, saying earnestly, “Mama, eat!”

Tuan Tuan had heard Song Yao say that it was good for the baby, so he wanted Lin Nuan to have more of it…

“Aiyoh… our Tuan Tuan is really sensible!” Looking at Tuan Tuan, Song Yao’s heart nearly melted. “Is Tuan Tuan giving your share to Mama because you know it’s good for the baby?”

Tuan Tuan nodded vigorously. “Mama, hungry!”

“Where can we find a kid as cute and sensible as our Tuan Tuan?” Song Yao was growing increasingly fond of Tuan Tuan. She reached out to stroke Tuan Tuan’s little head. “Tuan Tuan, eat up! Uncle’s house doesn’t have anything else, but we have plenty of bird’s nest! If Mama wants more, we can just ask the kitchen to cook some more!”

Tuan Tuan looked overjoyed to hear this. Sitting close to Lin Nuan, he hugged his little bowl as he shoved a mouthful of sweet bird’s nest into his mouth, shaking his head from side to side happily.

Very soon, he would become an older brother. He was so happy!

Cen Mo hesitated at the entrance of the dining room, not entering. When Fu Huai’an started moving, he reached out to grab Fu Huai’an’s arm. “I have something to discuss with you!”

“Mm, I’m all ears…” Fu Huai’an nodded, patiently gazing at Cen Mo, waiting for him to speak.

“Lin Nuan is pregnant now. She just took a plane over here and has just finished filming her scenes. Tell her not to rush back to China to pay respects to our parents. Stay here and rest for a few days. We can set off back home to pay respects to our parents after that! I’m not that anxious!”

“I think the same way. Xiao Nuan is afraid you might be anxious to do so,” Fu Huai’an said.

“I’m not anxious. I got by for so many years without having seen my parents. Now that my parents are no longer around… Lin Nuan and the baby in her tummy are more important!”

Cen Mo cared as much about Lin Nuan’s baby as he did Song Yao’s baby!

Cen Mo had lacked kinship since young. Although he had a vicious tongue… pretending not to care, he actually craved such feelings more than anyone.

Fu Huai’an gazed at Cen Mo with a hint of a smile. “Why don’t you discuss it with Xiao Nuan yourself? No idea how to bring it up?”

Having had his thoughts exposed, Cen Mo looked awkward, though he didn’t deny it. “A little…”

“Just speak normally. The affections between siblings won’t come into existence overnight, but your blood relation is there. You’ll be able to build up your relationship faster than unrelated people!”

Upon hearing Fu Huai’an say this, Cen Mo felt a little more relieved. He followed Fu Huai’an into the dining room…

Saihand personally went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, so the kitchen was really fast.

The supper was prepared according to the nutrition requirements of a pregnant woman. The kitchen was aware that Cen Mo would be eating as well, and Song Yao had a habit of eating supper at night, so the kitchen prepared a lot of food.
