I Want A Lifetime With You

“Forget about it then,” Su Yian conceded. She figured that there was no need for her to be so worked up over it when Shi Nuan herself appeared unruffled. She came to the conclusion that no matter what Shi Wei said, it did not change the facts. She finally loosened up and said sheepishly, “It looks like I still have a lot to learn to reach your level of serenity.”

Shi Nuan just chuckled – she was far from serene. She simply recalled all the times she spent with Fu Chengyan. No matter what happened, Fu Chengyan kept his cool and remained calm and steady at all times. Shi Nuan had been around Fu Chengyan enough to be influenced by him imperceptibly.

Song Rongrong handed two glasses of wine to Shi Nuan and Su Yian, “Let’s not talk about her anymore. I heard that all of Prosperous Dynasty’s guests are either wealthy or respectable. Liu Min’s husband must be quite capable in order to secure this venue, especially since we have the whole floor to ourselves.”

Song Rongrong nudged Shi Nuan’s shoulder with her own, “Does your husband know who owns Prosperous Dynasty?”

Shi Nuan shook her head, “I didn’t ask. Not his, I suppose.” If it belonged to him, it would really take Shi Nuan by surprise.

In contrast to the quiet atmosphere on Shi Nuan’s side, Shi Wei was swamped by people who came in waves to befriend her for their own benefit. Shi Wei welcomed them with her arms wide opened and a big friendly smile plastered on her face.

Basically, Liu Min had only invited those achievers in the same batch who had certain accomplishments. Hence, Shi Wei did not mind socializing with them. Wave after wave of people came, but in the end, Liu Min pulled her out and said she needed to talk to Shi Wei, “Hey, people, we still have all the time on earth. But now, I have matters to discuss with Shi Wei.”

With that, Shi Wei was dragged away by Liu Min, but the crowd was reluctant, and some even tried to follow them. Hence, Shi Wei flashed them a bright smile and said, “I’ll catch up with you guys later. I’m pretty sure most of you already have my number.”

Shi Wei, being the social butterfly she was, had immediately left them a good impression. After a while, Liu Min had led Shi Wei to a corner. She breathed out a sigh of relief when they were finally away from the crowd, “My dear friend, it’s been a while since we’ve met, and it looks like you are doing quite well!”

“Oh, stop it.” Shi Wei squinted her eyes and looked at Liu Min. “You’re not too shabby either! With that hotshot husband like yours, only he has the right connections to arrange for such a grand venue in the Prosperous Dynasty.” Shi Wei put on a smile when she talked to Liu Min, but her heart was full of disdain.

All this while, Liu Min had always been known as someone competent and not for her looks. She was someone who would be called a plain Jane at school. Hence, Shi Wei would usually try to avoid interactions with her back when they were still classmates. However, Shi Wei did not expect Liu Min’s life would turn out so well. It was all thanks to her husband, Song Shen, who was quite the hotshot. He is so much better compared to Fu Xicheng.

Shi Wei bit her lips as she immersed deeply in her thoughts. A sinister look flashed for a mere second in her eyes, but it dissipated when she forced out a smile, “Speaking of which, where is your husband?”

“He is still at work. He said he will be here later,” Liu Min took a good look at Shi Wei before replying. “You’re getting prettier every day.”

“Thank you,” Shi Wei faked on a smile while responding, “What did you want to tell me?”

“Silly me! I totally forgot about that. My sister-in-law likes you very much, and she wouldn’t stop talking about how much she wants to meet you. Since she is still young, my in-laws wanted to keep a close eye on her, and they don’t allow her to come to these places. I was just thinking if I could trouble you with an autographed photo. Since this is just to fulfill her wish, I wasn’t sure that it would be such a good idea if I had asked for your help in front of everyone,” Liu Min answered.
