I Want A Lifetime With You

“Why can’t I be here?” Song Jingyu shot a curious look at Mai Qi. “Oh, by the way, the person in charge at HR wasn’t in the office due to work. No one would get me the files I need.” Song Jingyu glanced at Mai Qi, before looking in the direction Mai Qi was looking at. She spotted a female figure entering Fu Chengyan’s office, and her gaze immediately turned sharp. “Who is that woman?”

“What woman?” Mai Qi stammered.

Noticing Song Jingyu’s gaze, Mai Qi immediately calmed herself down. “Oh, you mean the woman who just entered Mr. Fu’s office? She is from the project management department. Mr. Fu wanted to discuss a project with them,” Mai Qi told Song Jingyu, whose expression darkened. “Ms. Song?”

“Is she the only female in the project management department?”

“No. We have many female colleagues there.” Mai Qi looked at her inquisitively. “Why do you ask?”

“Then who just entered his office? What’s her name? How is her performance in Shengyuan?” Song Jingyu asked several questions in a row before Mai Qi could regain her senses.

So Song Jingyu thinks Shi Nuan is her rival? Mai Qi raised her brows. “Her name is Shi Nuan. She’s the deputy of the department head, Mr. Lin. Mr. Fu wanted to discuss work with her.”

“Really?” Song Jingyu wasn’t convinced. “Mai Qi, don’t lie to me. We’re friends now!”

“Ms. Song, you must be joking. You are so kind to me, of course I won’t lie to you. By the way, I’ve finished my work. Should we discuss our ideas now? I think doing the same thing every year seems to be a bad idea. Why don’t we come up with some new ideas this year? We might attract Mr. Fu’s attention this way.”

“That’s a great idea.” Mai Qi’s words distracted Song Jingyu, and she forgot about Shi Nuan instantly. “Let’s go, Mai Qi. It’s almost time for our lunch break. Why don’t I buy you lunch? We can discuss this over lunch.”

“Sure. Ms. Song, please wait while I pack up my stuff.” Mai Qi glanced at Fu Chengyan’s office and heaved a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Shi Nuan overheard Song Jingyu and Mai Qi’s conversation just as she was about to enter the office. She walked in and shut the door immediately. The woman stood at the door and cautiously peered outside. Fu Chengyan squinted his eyes in amusement upon seeing Shi Nuan crouching by the door. “What’s wrong? Why are you acting like a thief?”

Chengyan dutifully held his tongue while Shi Nuan opened the door and poked her head out. Her heart was lodged in her throat when she overheard Song Jingyu and Mai Qi’s

Since her husband said nothing, she continued, “I’m not afraid of others finding out about us since we’re already married. I’m not against telling everyone about us now. But, if Song Jingyu finds out about us, I think she won’t let us off easy. We’re amid the first phase of the project, so I don’t want this to affect
