I Want A Lifetime With You

“You…you…” Shi Nuan blushed. She was lost of words, and her embarrassment intensified when Fu Chengyan remained unabashed, “You’re shameless!”

Fu Chengyan chuckled and put the file down. A tapered finger stroked his chiseled jawline as he spoke, “Am I shameless? I’m your husband and that’s a normal thing for me to say. May, we’re a married couple and it’s normal to discuss this topic. Are you feeling shy?”

Shi Nuan pursed her lips, “I never knew you were such a brazen person!” He appeared to be a stern gentleman when she first met him. Was he starting to show his true colors now that they were married?

Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes but smiled regardless.

He made his way toward Shi Nuan and held her hand since she refused to come near him. He gave her hand a gentle squeeze, “Why are your hands so cold? It’s wintertime now, so you should keep yourself warm even when you’re at home!”

“Mm!” Shi Nuan obediently complied as her heart softened at his caring words, “I will.” She burrowed her hands deeper into Fu Chengyan’s warm hands, “My hands become warmer this way!”

Fu Chengyan’s eyes were filled with delight as he stroked the tip of Shi Nuan’s nose, “Are you hungry?”

Shi Nuan felt a tad hungry at an instant. She rubbed her tummy and nodded, “Yes, I’m hungry!”

“You must be hungry now since you didn’t eat much yesterday! There’s porridge in the kitchen, I’ll bring you some.” Fu Chengyan loosened his grip, but Shi Nuan grasped his hand and shook her head, “Never mind, I can get it myself. Weren’t you working just now? You better get back to your job!”

“It doesn’t matter!” Fu Chengyan caressed Shi Nuan’s face, “You’re much more important than my work. I’ll eat with you!”

“Oh, have you not eaten yet?” Shi Nuan exclaimed in surprise, “It’s rather late now, you should have eaten earlier!” Shu Nuan scolded, “You shouldn’t starve yourself. Next time, you should eat first if I haven’t wake up.”

“Okay!”

“Then let’s go and eat now!”

Shi Nuan held Fu Chengyan’s hand and admonished, “Yan, you should take good care of your body.”

Fu Chengyan curled his lips with his eyes fixated on Shi Nuan.

Both of them had their meals in the dining room; not only had Fu Chengyan prepared porridge, but he made steamed buns as well. Shi Nuan was astonished when she noticed that steamed buns had been shaped into different animals. The buns were a bit misshapen, but Shi Nuan found it all the more endearing.

Shi Nuan beamed and raised her brow in surprise, “Yan, did you make these all by yourself?”

Fu Chengyan cast his eyes downward, “No!”
