She took a few sips and was about to push it away from her… when Fu Huai’an coaxed her to take a few more mouthfuls. With a bit of coaxing here and there, Lin Nuan ended up drinking nearly half the cup.

Now that she was feeling warmer, Lin Nuan held onto Fu Huai’an’s firm forearm and watched the rising steam from the cup. She sniffed the aroma of the milk and said, “Huai’an, regarding Xiao Bai and Lu Jinnan’s matter, I know you’re in a difficult position too. I don’t dare to hope that you will stand on my side since Lu Jinnan is an especially important friend to you. I just hope… you won’t interfere in this! Just this one request, okay?”

Fu Huai’an’s lips were pursed as he swallowed back the words he was about to say to defend Lu Jinnan. “Drink some more…”

Fu Huai’an didn’t give Lin Nuan a direct answer, and Lin Nuan didn’t try to force one out of him either. She lowered her head and gazed at the cup of milk in front of her, then obediently took a small sip, but there was a deathly quiet in the depths of her eyes.

After she finished the milk, Lin Nuan still didn’t press Fu Huai’an for an answer. She merely pushed away the sandwich Fu Huai’an had brought to her mouth, saying she didn’t have the appetite and that she wanted to wait for Bai Xiaonian outside the operating room.

Lin Nuan got up to leave but was held back by the wrist by Fu Huai’an. He pulled Lin Nuan into his embrace and made her sit on his lap, enveloping her in his arms tightly. He said, “Xiao Nuan, let’s have a good chat… regarding Bai Xiaonian and Lu Jinnan’s matter, in a peaceful manner.”

Lin Nuan clenched her hands a little too tightly, to the point that it ached, then nodded. “Okay…”

Keeping Lin Nuan in his arms, Fu Huai’an began, “Xiao Nuan, firstly, I don’t believe Lu Jinnan would force himself upon Bai Xiaonian…”

The minute she heard those words, Lin Nuan couldn’t keep still and jumped up, tightly clenching her fists as tears instantly started pouring down her face. “Fu Huai’an! Even Lu Jinnan himself has owned up to it, but you’re still defending him? Bai Xiaonian jumped down from a building and is still lying in the operating room right now. And you’re telling me you don’t believe it? What proof do you need to make you believe? You’ll only believe it when you lose the lawsuit?”

Regarding this matter, regardless of the truth, Fu Huai’an did feel guilty speaking up for Lu Jinnan. His brows were knit together as he pulled Lin Nuan into his arms once again without regard for her will.

Lin Nuan couldn’t break free of him. She bit hard on her lips, nostrils flaring. “I only ask that you don’t interfere in this matter! You touch your heart and ask yourself, is such a request overboard? The one lying in the operating room right now is my bestest best friend, while your scum of a friend is standing there perfectly fine! Bai Xiaonian is exactly like my sister. All these years, she was the one who supported me through everything in life. Without Bai Xiaonian… I’d have died countless times from despair!”

Lin Nuan recalled all that Bai Xiaonian had done for her, and her heart ached terribly, as if she was stabbed with a knife. She even wished the one lying on the operating table right now was herself.

“Then I also ask one thing of you, don’t interfere in this matter either!” Fu Huai’an gazed at Lin Nuan’s eyes as he said, “Bai Xiaonian is your best friend, but Lu Jinnan is mine too! Xiao Nuan… since you ask that I don’t interfere in this matter, then it’s only fair that you stay out of it too.”

“Fair?” Lin Nuan was trembling all over by now. She felt as if she had just heard a joke. She deployed all her might to get away from Fu Huai’an and stood up. “Fu Huai’an, you’re talking fairness with me? I’ll tell you what’s fair! Fair would be your friend suffering an injury to his p*nis, then him jumping down from a building and ending up on an operating table, not knowing if he was going to come out alive. That’s fairness for you! Bai Xiaonian is lying in there right now… and you’re asking me to stay out of it? Then who’s going to take care of this matter? Let Bai Xiaonian perish by herself? You sure calculated your sums well!”

“Lin Nuan, I know you feel awful about what happened to Bai Xiaonian, but what we need to do now is rationally cope with the aftermath, not let our emotions take over! The worst thing that can happen after we run into a problem is for us to be rash and lose our cool. If you’re not coolheaded, you’re more likely to mess things up!” Fu Huai’an was provoked by what Lin Nuan had said as well. He got up too, his intimidating aura apparent.

Lin Nuan’s anger was bottled up inside of her with no outlet for her to vent, so her words were inevitably harsh. “Mess up? Mess up who? Mess up Lu Jinnan? I’ve long known you’re not the kind of righteous lawyer who upholds the country’s laws! Lu Jinnan’s murder case had no lack of witness and material evidence, but you still managed to get him acquitted of his charges! Much less a rape, this is probably nothing in your eyes! Even if the one who got hurt is my bestest best friend!”

Lin Nuan was caught up in a fit of rage and couldn’t listen to a word of what Fu Huai’an was saying. She flung open the door to the stairs and left.

Fu Huai’an’s neck was stiff, the veins on his temples popping, his masseter muscle particularly apparent.

The relationship between Lu Jinnan, Bai Xiaonian, and the two of them was too significant, and it was uncertain as to whether Bai Xiaonian would even survive this…

This was the first time Fu Huai’an felt a matter was thorny.

What happened between Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian was like a knife… that carved a crack in his and Lin Nuan’s relationship.

He was infuriated too.

Fu Huai’an drew a cigarette and bit it at the corner of his lips, but he couldn’t find his lighter after much fumbling, so he furiously crushed the cigarette into a ball.

Bai Xiaonian was operated on by Bai Jinyu under Fu Huai’an’s request. It was very successful…

The door to the operating room opened. Lu Jinnan was the first to get up but was shoved aside by Lin Nuan. He stood frozen there, throat slightly vibrating.

Fu Huai’an stared at the disheveled Lu Jinnan, the hands in his trouser pockets slightly clenching.

Lin Nuan and Lu Jinbei circled Bai Jinyu and pressed for her condition.

Seeing Lin Nuan’s reddened eyes, Bai Jinyu knew Lin Nuan was worried, so he smiled at Lin Nuan in a relaxed manner. “Sis-in-law, your friend will be fine. Have confidence in my skills. We merely cut an opening behind her ear, we’ve taken care of it properly, even if it results in a scar it’d be behind the ear and hardly noticeable.”

Lin Nuan saw Bai Xiaonian being pushed out. She couldn’t resist the urge to rush to Bai Xiaonian’s side and grab her hand, but she was also anxious to hear about Bai Xiaonian’s condition from Bai Jinyu.

Her reaction didn’t go unnoticed by Bai Jinyu, and so he told her, “Sis-in-law, you accompany your friend to the ICU first. I’ll change into something else, then come and tell you everything in detail!”

Lin Nuan thanked him and then proceeded to the ICU with Bai Xiaonian, along with Lu Jinbei. Bai Jinyu took off his surgery cap and glanced at Lu Jinnan’s handsome, scratched face, the corners of his lips turning up. “Yo… I say Old Lu, you also have your aggrieved moments? You’re capable indeed, Bai Xiaonian’s first time… and you managed to torment her like that. How ferocious were you to have forced the young lady to jump off a building?”

Lu Jinnan pulled a long face and stared at Bai Jinyu with such coldness in his eyes that it made one shudder.

Bai Jinyu hurriedly threw up his hands and laughed. “Ok ok ok… no more jokes, no more jokes! Don’t worry, Bai Xiaonian is fine, we’ve removed the blood clot. With today’s advanced technology, it was minimally invasive… she’s totally fine, just some fracturing in her legs, not a big problem at all. I guarantee within a month or two, I’ll return a vibrant and lively Bai Xiaonian to you!”

This group of friends was well aware of Lu Jinnan’s character. If Lu Jinnan weren’t genuinely fond of Bai Xiaonian, he absolutely wouldn’t have touched her at all…
