Chapter 566: In Any Case, I Will Definitely Not Turn Around to Graze on an Old Pasture
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Nuan had too much dignity and pride to earn her living under her rival in love, Chu Xun.
“Who’s that influential investor behind Weng Lin? How did he manage to remove you from the program just like that? Chu Xun didn’t consider the fact that if it weren’t for you…” Bai Xiaonian paused, thinking she could speak her mind since Fu Huai’an and Lu Jinnan weren’t around. “If it weren’t for you, who was dragged into the scandal with Wen Moshen and Gu Hanyan, ‘A Sunday Date’ wouldn’t enjoy such popularity today.”
The more Bai Xiaonian thought about it, the angrier she got. Recalling the Weibo post made by the winner of the Best Actor Award, Shi Hanchu, she thought it likely that Shi Hanchu had only agreed to go on the show because of Lin Nuan!
Her anger was bottled up inside of her. Edging closer to Lin Nuan, she said with determination and zeal, “Why don’t you ask your husband to invest in you! Isn’t it just money? Your husband even has a private plane, so that money must be peanuts to him! Get your husband to crush Chu Xun with money by investing in you. Snatch back ‘A Sunday Date’!”
In Bai Xiaonian’s heart, Lin Nuan first shot to popularity with “A Sunday Date,” so she viewed “A Sunday Date” and Lin Nuan as one entity.
Lin Nuan didn’t reveal a word of what Fang Yan said to Bai Xiaonian, afraid that Bai Xiaonian might leave Haicheng TV Station with her out of loyalty.
Bai Xiaonian’s career was progressing smoothly at Haicheng TV Station now, so Lin Nuan thought that no matter what, Chu Xun wouldn’t resort to picking on Bai Xiaonian as well.
Lin Nuan shook her head. “What meaning is there in snatching the program back like that?”
Not wanting Bai Xiaonian to harp on about this matter, Lin Nuan changed the topic. “Are you really planning to get together with Lu Jinnan?”
“Do I look like I’m faking it?” Bai Xiaonian took a bite of an apple and smiled as she asked Lin Nuan.
“Then… does Uncle Bai know about it? I know that Uncle Bai is quite fond of Lu Jinbei.”
Lin Nuan recalled how Lu Jinnan’s father had called Lu Jinbei in front of Bai Xiaonian’s father that day, urging Lu Jinbei to look after Bai Xiaonian.
Lin Nuan could tell that there was a hint of a smile in Bai Xiaonian’s father’s eyes then.
“If my dad likes him, then he can marry Lu Jinbei! In any case, I will definitely not turn around to graze on an old pasture1, especially with a scumbag who cheated on me…” Bai Xiaonian set down the half-eaten apple and picked up the bag of chips on the table, stuffing a potato chip into her mouth as she shrugged.
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
Only Bai Xiaonian would say something like having her own father marry Lu Jinbei!
Bai Xiaonian hugged the bag of potato chips and stared at the door of the lounge. After confirming that Lu Jinnan and Fu Huai’an weren’t about to barge in, she mysteriously edged closer to Lin Nuan. She licked her index finger and thumb before asking in a lowered voice, “Nuan… let me ask you. Do you and your Fu Huai’an make merry every night? Is Fu Huai’an’s technique superb and particularly experienced, pleasuring you every time?”
Lin Nuan stared at the gossipy Bai Xiaonian and held back the reddening sensation in her ears. Her brows tightened, and she deliberately kept a straight face. “Which eye of yours saw us making merry every night?”
Bai Xiaonian’s vision strayed towards Lin Nuan’s neck, and she raised an eyebrow and grinned wickedly.
Lin Nuan tugged on her collar and reached over for a pillow, hugging it to her chest. She seemed as if she was watching the movie seriously as she ignored Bai Xiaonian.
“Don’t deny it! Look at the way you’re flushed and glowing and look a little fatigued. Clearly, you have been tormented ferociously while being nourished at the same time!”
There were no men around, so Bai Xiaonian spoke her mind freely.
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
“That scoundrel Lu Jinnan and Fu Huai’an are clearly good friends, so why are they so different? That scoundrel…” Bai Xiaonian’s heart raced at the mention of Lu Jinnan. “Never mind the fact that he has no technique to speak of, he also likes to use brute force! Most importantly, he doesn’t heed anything anyone else says! He thinks he’s the number one in the world and invincible!”
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
If she had a choice, Lin Nuan didn’t wish to listen to the bedroom affairs between her good friend and her boyfriend.
“Nuan, can you get Fu Huai’an to teach Lu Jinnan that scoundrel!”
Lin Nuan almost spat out the longan red dates tea in her mouth. She stared at Bai Xiaonian as if she was a monster. “Bai Xiaonian, you really have no inhibitions! Where in the world does a person interfere in her good friend’s… bedroom affairs?”
“How is this interfering! This is to make our life more blissful and harmonious!” Bai Xiaonian pointed a finger at Lin Nuan. “Are you my good friend or what?”
“Not a good friend! Bye, I won’t be sending you off…” Lin Nuan replied in a proper tone.
Bai Xiaonian remained silent, a series of ellipses going through her mind.
Lin Nuan hugged her mug of longan red dates tea and continued staring at the tv screen, ignoring Bai Xiaonian.
“I knew some friends could share in hardships but not in joy! Now that you’re living a nourished life, like a well-watered rose, you’re not willing to lend a helping hand to your slowly withering friend!”
Bai Xiaonian lifted her leg, which was still wrapped in a cast, and placed it on the coffee table, pitifully caressing it…
“Bai Xiaonian, it’s a pity that you didn’t choose to act. If you had pursued an acting career, it wouldn’t be a problem for you to claim the Best Actress Award!” Lin Nuan’s mouth twitched, and she couldn’t resist rubbing it in Bai Xiaonian’s face.
“I’m truly sad. I hadn’t expected the flower of our friendship would wither just like that…”
“Are you done going on about this?” Lin Nuan shot a sideways glance at Bai Xiaonian.
“Will you help or not!” Bai Xiaonian’s petite face was puffed up with anger. “If you refuse to help me, I will say bye-bye to you! End of our friendship!”
“You’re asking me to approach Fu Huai’an about your bedroom affairs with Lu Jinnan! Fu Huai’an could shut me up with one line—why am I so concerned with Lu Jinnan’s bedroom affairs? If I told him it was you who begged me to ask him to broach the subject with Lu Jinnan, who could guarantee Fu Huai’an wouldn’t tell him? Wouldn’t Lu Jinnan lose all face then?”
Lin Nuan felt that Bai Xiaonian was as intelligent as a vixen when she was intelligent, but when she got stupid, she was really stupid!
“Just like you and me, if Lu Jinnan told Fu Huai’an to come and talk to me, I’d surely tell you. Putting yourself in other people’s shoes, Bai Xiaonian, if Lu Jinnan found out about this, do you still plan on dating him properly?”
Lin Nuan spoke in a fast and urgent manner. Bai Xiaonian apparently heeded her words, staring at Lin Nuan with a displeased look. “You’re so fierce when you have reason on your side!”
When she thought of her sex life with Lu Jinnan, Bai Xiaonian felt like there was a cotton ball stuck in her heart.
Clearly, she was the victor armed with rich theoretical knowledge, so she should be leading a nourished life when it came to intimate interactions! But how come every time Lu Jinnan felt pleasured, she would end up in an awkward state?
The day before, that scoundrel Lu Jinnan had completely ignored her instructions! He was so barbaric that Bai Xiaonian had the impulse to strangle him to death!
