I Want A Lifetime With You

Shi Nuan was stunned for a second, and not a single word was spat out. She thought that Fu Chengyuan was mad, but after thinking it through, she burst out in laughter. “Ah! Then isn’t Lin Yu cooler than you?” she jokingly said as she turned around.

Fu Chengyan frowned and put the documents aside. “So proud of yourself now, huh?”

Shi Nuan pursed her lips as she tried not to laugh. She shrugged and shook her head, “Umm, no?”

Fu Chengyan squinted; his eyes narrowed in the dim-lighted car. Suddenly, Shi Nuan’s felt her chest tighten as she swallowed her saliva. She was nervous and accidentally kicked the door, hurting her feet and cried out in pain.

“What happened?” Fu Chengyan asked as she heard the tense cries. He frowned and looked in Shi Nuan’s direction, “What’s wrong?”

They were in the car park. He immediately opened the door and went to the driver’s seat. Shi Nuan was massaging her feet in pain. He then lifted her feet to check on her; he was surprised when he saw Shi Nuan’s ankle swollen like a tennis ball. Her feet were worn out as well, which made Fu Chengyuan frown.

He massaged gently on her ankle, “Is it painful?”

“Not at all!” she shook her head. Although she was, she did not want Fu Chengyan to worry about her. “It’s okay. I’m alright now,” she said. “I bumped into something, and it was a small incident. No big deal.”

“Are you sure?” Fu Chengyan sensed something wrong as he raised his eyebrows. Again, he reached out to massage Shi Nuan’s ankle, but this time, he was rather rough. Shi Nuan took another deep breath and tried to retract her legs; she was unable to move as Fu Chengyan held them firmly.

“It doesn’t hurt?” Fu Chengyuan glared at her. “Why are you wearing high heels to work?” Even though his voice was cold and emotionless, Shi Nuan knew that Chengyuan was worried about her.

Fu Chengyan lectured her; she was aggrieved and looked down. She dare not say a single word. With an icy cold expression, Fu Chengyan said, “Don’t assume that staying silent would solve the problem. Why didn’t you change before you went out with Lin Yu? And he didn’t care about it when you got hurt?”

“This has nothing to do with him. It’s my fault!” Shi Nuan felt bad if Lin Yu were to be involved in such a trivial matter. “It’s my first day at work. I had no idea that he would bring me to West City. If I had known, I wouldn’t wear this pair of heels!” she explained, tears rolling down her cheek.

Her pinky finger wandered about flirtatiously. Toying with his fingers, she then poked the back of Fu Chengyan’s hands in a cheeky manner. She bit her lips and said, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I promise I’ll take good care of myself next time.”

“Next time?” Fu Chengyan raised his voice. “You just don’t care at all!”

“That’s not true!” Shi Nuan protested in dissatisfaction. “As I said, today’s an exception. You know, we girls just want to look pretty all the time – it’s natural for us to wear high heels. Also, it’s not like I’ll go to West City every day, right? Usually, we just stay in the office and it bores me.” Shi Nuan mumbled softly, sounded like a chanting monk.

Fu Chengyan pinched the space between his brows and shook his head; he was frustrated as he looked at how helpless Shi Nuan was. He pinched Shi Nuan’s ankle again, “Still hurts?”
