  After closing the door, Lin Nuan didn’t hide things from Fu Huai’an. She said to him, “The day I had breakfast with Xiaonian at the restaurant, a man called Li Muyang came to me and told me that my voice was nearly identical to that of his deceased lover. He said he wanted to talk to me. It’s the same man who bumped into me when we were strolling previously. I felt there was something strange with that man, as if he had been sick for a long time.”


  Originally, Fu Huai’an didn’t wish to tell Lin Nuan about Li Muyang. However, upon hearing Lin Nuan say that her voice was nearly identical to Li Muyang’s deceased lover, he frowned and pulled her into his arms, filling her in on Li Muyang’s identity.

  “Li Muyang’s original name wasn’t Li Muyang. It was Matt De Niro.” Fu Huai’an spoke softly in Lin Nuan’s ear, saying, “You likely don’t know what happened in America in the second half of 2016.”


  Lin Nuan was occupied with a lot at that time and likely wasn’t in the mood to follow such international news that had no bearing on her.

  The De Niro family was, on the surface, a company that manufactured and sold military ammunition and weapons—a supplier of the most technologically advanced weaponry to the US Army. But it was, in fact, America’s most influential underworld family.

  The De Niro family originated in the UK. A British princess had married into the De Niro family, which made the De Niro family feel that their future generations had royal blood. It wasn’t known why they went to live in America.

  On November 23rd, 2016, Matt De Niro bathed the entire De Niro family in blood, including underage kids. He was rumored to be avenging his lover, who passed away three days prior.

  Later, Matt De Niro turned himself in, but his lawyer argued that Matt De Niro’s uncles had—because they were displeased with his mother being Chinese—bribed his childhood playmates and swapped out his vitamins for medication that would cause one’s neurological senses to weaken and their mental state to become abnormal over time…


  He proved that Matt De Niro only committed manslaughter under the effects of those medications, added to him losing control of his mind because he had just lost his lover.

  Later, Matt De Niro returned to the De Niro manor to recuperate. He appeared to stop interfering in worldly affairs on the surface, but in the dark, his methods became more ruthless and brutal…


  Everyone said that Matt De Niro had a mental health condition, a lunatic!

  Fu Huai’an hadn’t expected the seemingly harmless looking guy to be Matt De Niro.

  After hearing Li Muyang’s real identity, Lin Nuan inevitably felt worried.

  Seeing Lin Nuan look up at him with a worried look, Fu Huai’an gently laughed. “Relax, I’ll be around! If we run into that same incident in the restaurant, and I’m not around, try not to get into a direct conflict with him. When I’m around…”


  Lin Nuan nodded like an elementary school kid, waiting for Fu Huai’an to carry on.

  Fu Huai’an lowered his head and leaned his forehead against Lin Nuan’s. There was a smile in his voice as he said, “You have nothing to fear!”


  Fu Huai’an’s words, while making Lin Nuan feel touched, made her detect something unusual.

  When Fu Huai’an was around, she had nothing to fear?

  Matt De Niro’s identity and background made Lin Nuan’s hair stand, and that was just from hearing the story. But here Fu Huai’an was, telling Lin Nuan she had nothing to fear when he was around.

  Fu Huai’an sounded relaxed, not like he was merely consoling her.

  In Lin Nuan’s heart, even if Fu Huai’an used to be in the special forces, he was a proper businessman now. How could he be this relaxed facing someone with such a powerful underworld background?

  Lin Nuan didn’t believe that Fu Huai’an was merely speaking out of self-confidence.

  Either Fu Huai’an had known this Matt De Niro back in America, or…


  Lin Nuan was unwilling to consider the other possibility.

  Some things Lin Nuan had seen in the movies, but she hoped they were just things that appeared in movies. She only wanted to lead a peaceful and safe life with Fu Huai’an.

  Lin Nuan couldn’t take great ups and downs like the incident in Dubai.

  “Then, that invitation tonight from Matt De Niro…”


  Fu Huai’an cupped a hand behind Lin Nuan’s head and planted a kiss on her lips before saying, “If you don’t wish to go, I’ll go myself. Think about what you want to eat and get Bai Xiaonian and Lu Jinnan to accompany you! If you wish to come along, I’ll be around, so you don’t need to be afraid…”


  After a moment’s hesitation, she decided that she didn’t want to hide anything from Fu Huai’an, lest it increased the distance between them should something like this repeatedly happen over time.

  Therefore, Lin Nuan leaned backward and moved her forehead away from Fu Huai’an’s. She gazed at him with her clear and bright eyes, asking in a serious voice, “Huai’an, other than the Kaide Corporation and your private companies and business dealings, is there… anything that you do not wish for me to find out about?”


  Lin Nuan was asking subtly.

  Her petite hand tightly clenched the clothing on Fu Huai’an’s firm back, a thin layer of sweat on her palms. “We’re a married couple, and the most important thing between a married couple is trust. I don’t wish to hide anything from you, so please don’t hide anything from me for fear that I would worry!”


  Fu Huai’an remained unmoving. He knew that Lin Nuan was smart, and also that with Lin Nuan’s sensitive nature, she would be able to detect small details.

  After Lin Nuan finished speaking, Fu Huai’an realized that while he was talking about Matt De Niro, he had revealed some traces.

  “Are you willing to tell me?” Lin Nuan’s hands were on Fu Huai’an’s back, her entire being squeezed into Fu Huai’an’s embrace, their bodies closely pressed together.

  Lin Nuan’s scent filled his nostrils…


  Fu Huai’an gazed at Lin Nuan with his deep-set eyes, not uttering a word with his lips pursed. His clearly defined face was in front of Lin Nuan’s eyes, yet she felt like she couldn’t see through him.

  He gently hugged Lin Nuan into his arms and avoided her anticipating eyes. Fu Huai’an’s mature voice rang in Lin Nuan’s ears as he said, “It’s not that I want to hide anything from you. I didn’t tell you… because I haven’t handled these risky business matters myself for many years, and I felt that it was past tense.”


  Hearing Fu Huai’an say this, Lin Nuan’s eyes reddened as she pressed on, asking, “Really?”


  Fu Huai’an nodded, gazing earnestly at her reddened eyes and assuring her in a mature voice that sounded convincing. “Really…”


  Gu Qingcheng was the one handling these matters now, and he was also the one doing the most dangerous things.

  “Then promise me, never place yourself in danger!” Lin Nuan hugged Fu Huai’an with all her strength, looking up into his eyes. “I only have this one request!”


  Lin Nuan could ignore everything else, except Fu Huai’an’s safety.

  When she thought of those large and small old scars on Fu Huai’an’s body, Lin Nuan felt her heart ache. She didn’t wish new scars to be added onto Fu Huai’an.
