I Want A Lifetime With You

I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 241

Each of them went back to their respective homes after the discussion. Fu Chengyan touched his pockets as he looked in Pei Jingxiu’s direction. “I cannot thank you enough!”

Pei Jingxiu laughed. “I thought you would blame me for frightening her.” He remembered how Shi Nuan looked at him at the scene. “Luckily, it was me that she saw and not you.” He added, “Nevertheless, she is a brave one. She didn’t scream at all, and neither did she faint!”

Any ordinary person would have panicked in the same situation. However, Shi Nuan didn’t. No doubt she was a little traumatized, but that was all. Pei Jingxiu squinted and recalled the look on Ning Xi’s face the first time he met her.

Fu Chengyan knitted his eyebrows slightly and said, “No matter what, I would still like to thank you again for today!”

“That’s enough already. It’s late now, time to get some rest!”

After Fu Chengyan went upstairs, Pei Jingxiu took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket. He proceeded to pick one out and placed it between his fingers while staring blankly out of the window.

That night, Zhou Zheng, Jiang Hu, and Liang Lin got rid of all the ambushers around Wutong Residence. There wasn’t a lot of them, but they were all professional killers. If Fu Chengyan had gone home that night, he wouldn’t have stood a chance no matter how good he was at fighting. He would be outnumbered.

“Mr. Fu, we have taken out all of the enemies there. What else do you need?”

“Good job. You guys should take the day off!” Fu Chengyan ended his call and turned to look at Shi Nuan, who was sound asleep. He smiled as he put the blanket which she had kicked away back on her. Just as he was about to leave, Shi Nuan grabbed his hand. She muttered in her sleep, “Yan, don’t go.”

“Alright, I won’t go.” Fu Chengyan held her hand as he sat by the bed. He held a newspaper in one hand while she held onto the other.

When Shi Nuan finally woke up, it was already past ten. She managed to sleep well last night. It was likely because she felt secure with Fu Chengyan beside her, on top of what they had been through yesterday.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Fu Chengyan leaning against the bed while reading a newspaper. The sun shone into the room from an angle. It brought with it a sense of warmth in the middle of winter.

Shi Nuan blinked her eyes. Fu Chengyan felt it instantly, even though it was just a minute movement. He put down his papers and looked at her. “Awake already?”

Shi Nuan nodded with a smile. When she saw that she was still holding onto Fu Chengyan’s hand, she felt embarrassed and let go. “W-Why didn’t you wake me up?”

“I didn’t want to disturb your sleep.” Fu Chengyan picked some of Shi Nuan’s hair and tucked them behind her ear. “How do you feel? Did you sleep well?”

“Yes, I slept well. Why did you wake up so early?” Shi Nuan asked as she flicked the sheets aside and got out of bed.
