I Want A Lifetime With You

“But…” Shi Nuan wanted to protest, yet she decided against it when she saw the emotionless expression on Pei Jingxiu’s face.

She gulped as she looked at the two lifeless bodies on the ground. It was then that she realized how fragile life was. They had just been breathing down her neck a while ago but now are no longer part of this world.

It wasn’t that she was a saint, but she had never seen anything like this in real life. Nothing could have prepared her for this. Even if she had seen it before on TV or read about it in novels, those were all fake. Besides, she didn’t witness it with her own eyes. But now that it unfolded in front of her, she was indeed frightened.

Shi Nuan stared at Pei Jingxiu. She couldn’t understand what went through his mind, given the fact that he could still remain calm under those circumstances.

Pei Jingxiu narrowed his eyes and looked at Shi Nuan. He realized that he had really given her a fright. He paused for a moment before apologizing, “I’m sorry that I frightened you.”

Shi Nuan nodded but then shook her head immediately. “Pei, I know that you wanted to save me. But, you killed them because of me, I…what about them? All the security cameras here would have captured what happened. Pei…you…”

“Don’t worry!” Pei Jingxiu was relieved when he heard what Shi Nuan said. He was worried that she would be too stunned to react. However, she seemed to be brave enough. “Someone will take care of it.”

“But…” Shi Nuan pointed at the men on the floor. “Will you really be fine?”

Pei Jingxiu was about to reply when his phone rang. It was Ning Xi who called. “How did it go?”

“All the security footage around you has been wiped. But time is of the essence. You will need to leave immediately,” Ning Xi explained as she looked at them through her screen. “Someone will clean up after you!”

Following that, she added, “There’s an ambush along the way to Fu Chengyan’s house. It appears that someone really wants him dead. Both of you should stay away from there!”

“Alright!” Pei Jingxiu took a look at Shi Nuan. “Let’s go. I’ll send you back!”

“Sure!” Shi Nuan nodded obediently. “About them…will you really be alright? Pei, you have to be honest with me.”

“Yes, I’m sure of that. Let’s get in the car!” Shi Nuan got into the front passenger seat. Pei Jingxiu looked at her and said, “There’s an ambush on the way to Wutong Residence. You can’t go back yet until all the threats have been removed!”

“Then…” Shi Nuan hesitated. “Pei, I don’t have anywhere else to go. Also, what about Yan? What happened to him? Where is he? Given that I’m being hunted, he must be in danger too!” Shi Nuan’s face went pale as she spoke. “Pei, do you know where he is?”

Pei Jingxiu raised his eyebrow and smiled as he reassured her, “Don’t worry, there is hardly anyone who can beat Yan given how tough he is.”
