Lin Ran's eyes were red. The urge to say something mean was on the tip of her tongue, but seeing the intimidating Fu Huai'an following after Lin Nuan, those words were stuck in her throat.
"18th floor..." Lin Ran mumbled as she pursed her lips, unwilling to say another word.
Lin Nuan let go of Lin Ran and rushed towards the elevator.
...
As she walked out of the elevator, Lin Nuan saw the butler carrying a thermos bottle outside one of the wards.
"Uncle Mu!"
Lin Nuan called out as she jogged over.
"Miss, you came!" The Mu butler couldn't contain his joy at seeing her.
He noticed Fu Huai'an standing behind Lin Nuan, emanating an extraordinary presence. Butler Mu recalled that last night at the dinner table, Liang Mulan had mentioned that Lin Nuan had already gotten her marriage certificate, thus he couldn't help paying more attention to Fu Huai'an more and nodded at him.
Butler Mu had been in the Lin Family for many years. He had seen a lot and had come in contact with a lot of people. Fu Huai'an wasn't old, yet his eyes had a feeling of depth to it. He wore a suit and the mature, refined presence he radiated was especially intense, just like their family's Lin Chen. He had an air of authority and an intimidating quality unlike most peers his age.
Butler Mu naturally compared Fu Huai'an and Lin Chen and found it very difficult to see who was the real alpha.
"How's my mother doing?"
Lin Nuan stood at the door and asked. She didn't know how badly Liang Mulan was injured and wanted to know more about the situation so she could prepare herself mentally for it.
"The doctor said there's no big issue. It's just that the wound on her hand was pretty long and needed twenty-eight stitches. She also had three stitches in her head. The CT scan of her head hasn't come out yet, but the doctor said she wasn't unconscious when she fell down so there shouldn't be a big problem."
Lin Nuan's heart in mid-air finally came down slightly. She then realized her feet were numb.
"Is Mother awake?"
Butler Mu nodded and turned around to open the ward door for Lin Nuan. He walked inside first and said to Liang Mulan, "Auntie, Miss and your son-in-law are here."
Lin Nuan felt somewhat uncomfortable upon hearing the title son-in-law for the first time. She looked at Liang Mulan in panic but she didn't explain.
Lying in bed, Liang Mulan was calling her husband who had just landed from his flight. As she heard them, she hurriedly said, "It's fine, I'm okay. You don't need to fly back. Nuan Nuan is here, so I'm hanging up first..."
Seeing that Liang Mulan didn't look as awful as she'd imagined, Lin Nuan let out a deep sigh of relief. Her heart finally returned to her chest yet her eyes grew wet and her throat felt stifled.
"Why did you guys come?" Liang Mulan didn't want Lin Nuan to worry and made a little face at her. However, she accidentally pulled the wound on her face, causing it to sting a little.
Lin Nuan put down her bag and turned around to look at Fu Huai'an."Thank you for sending me here..."
Lin Nuan's order for him to leave was indeed quite heartless. Fu Huai'an had sent her over here and she couldn't even wait for him take a drink of water before trying to get rid of him.
Seeing Fu Huai'an's deep, enigmatic eyes glancing towards her, she herself felt sheepish. Her ears turned red and betrayed her yet again.
Fu Huai'an walked past Lin Nuan and said a few words to Liang Mulan, then left the ward accompanied by Butler Mu.
The ward was only left with Lin Nuan and Liang Mulan.
Lin Nuan took the thermos bottle that Butler Mu had brought over."I'll go get you some warm water."
Liang Mulan didn't say anything. She knew Lin Nuan felt awful inside...
Inside the water room.
Lin Nuan put the bottle under the tap of the water tank and began to collect the water. Her nose began to sniffle.
She intended to keep a distance from the Lin Family and be less involved as much as possible, yet the moment she received a call that Liang Mulan had an accident, she was in such a panic that she wished she could have wings just to fly by her side and check up on her.
