Even if he had character, who can guarantee that he could compose himself when other women threw themselves at him?
The more she got to know him, the more she understood the kind of intoxicating attraction Fu Huai'an commanded. If he wanted to, which woman could escape from him?
Whether it was dating or marriage, Lin Nuan didn't have the energy to prepare herself to fight off all the girls trying to get her man at all times.
At the end of the day, she felt insecure being with a man like Fu Huai'an.
She wanted someone who was more ordinary to be in a relationship with or even for marriage. The more average he was, the safer she felt.
Lin Nuan's understanding of men came from examples around her in real life...
Lin Nuan's father in the Lin family managed to maintain a good body despite being middle-aged. His appearance was quite above average.
Even when a successful man who had an attractive body grew older, the women throwing themselves at him wouldn't decrease. Liang Mulan was well aware—she just didn't want to be petty about it and closed an eye to it.
Lin Nuan couldn't be as generous as Liang Mulan, especially if it was her own husband. She would definitely file for divorce. She couldn't share a husband with someone even if it meant she lost everything—she just felt it was too dirty.
Bai Xiaonian's father, despite being a normal worker, seemed to be incompatible with her mother who was a legend in the journalism sector. But it was a man like that who had never fallen for another woman even ten years after Bai Xiaonian's mother had passed away. He raised her all on his own. When people around him persuaded him to marry someone else, he refused.
Not only that, Bai Xiaonian's father never forgot a single anniversary with her mother in those ten years. Every year, he would mourn over her during those times.
If she had to choose between a man like her father in the Lin family who was an overachiever in every area in life and a man like Bai Xiaonian's father who was average in every part of life, she would pick the latter.
After Fu Huai'an made it clear to her that if she didn't marry him she wasn't breaking any promises, being the peace-lover she was, Lin Nuan had ultimately let out a sigh of relief. She had then decided not to cross paths with Fu Huai'an anymore in the future.
"Thud thud thud—"
Someone knocked on the bathroom door.
Lin Nuan had a bit too many shocks that evening.
Bai Xiaonian walked out of her room half-awake as soon as her alarm went off. She took a look at the lit bathroom and asked, "Nuan Nuan, are you up?"
Bai Xiaonian's voice made Lin Nuan so nervous she couldn't breathe. All she could hear was her pounding heart.
There was no way she could calm herself down. She was afraid Bai Xiaonian would get suspicious if she answered shakily, hence she unconsciously bit on her lips again.
"Nuan?"
Bai Xiaonian nudged the door handle upon receiving no response. Lin Nuan's hand, still around Fu Huai'an's neck, grew stiff.
"Yeah... I'm awake! Using the toilet!" Lin Nuan tried hard to control her heartbeat, but her voice was still a bit shaky.
"Then I'll sleep a while longer. Call me when you're done washing up."
"Okay, " Lin Nuan answered properly.
As she heard the bedroom door facing the bathroom click shut, she let out a sigh of relief and took back her arm wrapped around his neck with great embarrassment. She shooed him away."Hurry up and use the toilet then get out of here! My friend is awake..."
"You're shooing me away right after the kiss?"
He said in a flirtatious voice that made her blush so hard she couldn't look at him.
