I Want A Lifetime With You

Pei Jingxiu rested one arm on the banister, lifted his head, and looked up at Su Bancheng. Even though the two weren’t on equal footing, it didn’t lessen Pei Jingxiu’s strong aura one bit. He narrowed his eyes and chuckled coolly. “I’m afraid I don’t quite understand what Mr. Jiang is referring to.”

Su Bancheng looked at him with piercing eyes, “Mr. Pei should understand. Shaoqing is still a child. There are things that he’s not suited to know or do!”

“Looks like Mr. Jiang really cares for Shaoqing. Similarly, I care for him too.” Pei Jingxiu answered calmly. “I won’t include him in certain matters. You don’t have to worry about that.”

Su Bancheng didn’t relax even after hearing his assurance. “Then… your return?”

“To see old friends,” Pei Jingxiu grinned. “If I came back for that matter, do you think I’d come to Jiang City instead of Sheen City?”

“Either way, I can’t stop whatever Mr. Pei is intending to do. But my only request is to not involve Shaoqing. The Su family’s future depends on him. He is the true heir after all.”

“Did Mr. Jiang ask Shaoqing about his own wishes? These things that are important to you all might not be as important to him!” Having said that, Pei Jingxiu then turned around and left Su Shaoqing’s place, with Su Bancheng solemnly looking on.

When Pei Jingxiu arrived at his own place, he could tell there was something off. He didn’t turn on the lights but took a quick scan of his surroundings. A normal person would usually be less agile in the dark, but Pei Jingxiu was someone who had been in the darkness for a long period of time, and so he could quickly adjust to it.

He looked around again, then headed upstairs. The strange feeling he had grew stronger until someone pounced at him, but he deftly dodged the attack. Two shadows started fighting in the middle of the big study. But soon enough, Pei Jingxiu had the upper hand. He reached out and clenched onto the person’s vital spot.

“Nine!”

Pei Jingxiu’s voice sounded stern. “You’ve gotten slower!” The person called ‘Nine” stood still for a while as if her neck wasn’t the one being clenched. She smiled and asked, “Do you mean that I should take you down before you even set foot in here the next time?”

Pei Jingxiu relaxed his grip and went to turn on the lights.

The study brightened up. Pei Jingxiu stood by the door, with one hand on the frame and the other just hanging. He looked intently at the young girl in front of him.

The girl was dressed in all black and looked very chic. Her black hair was tied up, showing off her delicate face. This was the girl whom Pei Jingxiu referred to as ‘Nine.’ Her actual name was Ning Xi.

Ning Xi, too, was looking at Pei Jingxiu. She was surprised to find him wearing a nice-looking suit, something that was unusual for him. No wonder she thought that his moves were a little stiff. It must’ve been because of his clothes.
