The moment the doorbell rang, Yun Shu, who was sitting on the sofa dazedly, sprang up. She walked towards the door barefooted with a complicated expression of sadness and joy. It was as if she was not opening the door for her financial backer but was on her way to be executed.
As she was about to open the door, she took a deep breath and plastered a slightly rigid smile before opening the door.
“Fu-Fu…” Yun Shu’s expression went blank. What should she call him? Sugar daddy or President Fu? After much deliberation, the former was too shameful, so she softly called out, “President Fu.”
Fu Ran’s face was still expressionless. His voice was not gentle from the phone call but a little cold and rigid. He said, “Just call me by my name.”
Yun Shu, who stole the female supporting character’s role, was now facing Fu Ran, the male lead, and felt a little guilty and afraid. His look and voice intensified her fear. Her body trembled unconsciously, and her voice was even softer. “Fu-Fu Ran…”
Fu Ran’s expression became even uglier. She was clearly…clearly not afraid of him yesterday…
Then, the two stood awkwardly in the doorway for a short while. It was only until there was a cold breeze, causing the barefooted Yun Shu wearing a thin nightgown to shiver and sneeze. The awkward situation crumbled.
Fu Ran furrowed his brows. He squeezed into the door a little forcefully and closed it with his hands. In the meantime, he quickly took off his jacket and put it over Yun Shu. Seeing that she did not have any shoes on, his frown deepened. The next moment, he reached out his arms and carried her.
It wasn’t a princess carry. He was just carrying her from her waist, and her feet were slightly off the ground.
Fu Ran didn’t carry her for too long. He went over to the sofa and put Yun Shu down. Then, he tucked her feet into his custom-made suit, which fit him perfectly but was too big for her.
Yun Shu was dumbfounded. After Fu Ran completed the series of actions, she gave an “ah” as an afterthought.
Fu Ran’s brows did not relax as he said to her, “Remember to wear shoes next time. It’s not good to catch a cold and fall sick.”
Yun Shu looked up at him. Even though Fu Ran’s expression was not very pleasant, and his voice was also cold and rigid, the guilt and fear in her heart suddenly disappeared.
Yun Shu thought to herself in a trance. It turns out that the fictional character coming to life is not much different from an ordinary flesh and blood person, except that he is more handsome and rich… Ah, he is really good looking.
Fu Ran originally wanted to say a few more words. But when he saw Yun Shu staring at him… He stopped. His back straightened to sit next to Yun Shu. After the girl’s fragrance wafted into his nose, he straightened his back even more.
……
……
……
We can’t keep being silent any longer!
Fu Ran cleared his throat and tried to soften his tone. “Why are you still awake at this late hour?”
Upon hearing these words, Yun Shu returned to her senses and subconsciously pulled the jacket she was wearing closer. Slowly, she realized that it belonged to the man, where there was the man’s cold scent on it. Her face instantly turned red, and she mumbled, “I had a nightmare, and I woke up…”
Fu Ran looked at Yun Shu for a while before saying, “Do not be afraid. Dreams are the opposite of reality.”
—— But this dream was different. It is real.
Yun Shu fluttered her eyelashes and didn’t say anything.
Fu Ran’s breath hitched, and his heartbeat was beating like thunder.
Yun Shu had made a name for herself in just a few years because of her looks. She was the first choice for flower vase <sup>[1]</sup> roles in various productions, so naturally, she was extremely good looking.
Yun Shu’s appearance was on the flamboyant side, and she could easily fall into the category of a sultry slut. But she was born with stunning eyes. They were watery and clear with a slight droop at the corner of her eyes. This added a tinge of innocence to her sultry appearance, resulting in her overall flamboyant appearance mixed with innocence. It was so pure and desirable that it caused one to be unable to control oneself.
That person was none other than Fu Ran.
—— Damn it. Why is this woman so beautiful?!
<sup>[1]</sup> 花瓶(huāpíng)-Flower vase refers to just being a pretty face.
