I Want A Lifetime With You

Shi Nuan picked an outfit that was suitable for a celebratory occasion. Then she waited for Fu Chengyan, who still hadn’t come home because he had been busier these days. Yet, she received the man’s phone call after waiting over an hour. “Sorry, May. I don’t think I’ll be able to attend the party with you.”

Shi Nuan was taken aback. “What’s wrong? Did something happen at work?” she asked instinctively. “No,” Fu Chengyan replied. “Something came up at the Fu Residence. I’ll have to head over.”

“But… I promised Granddad that I’d take you to the party. My parents are also expecting you… Okay, then. It’ll be fine if I show up a little late.” Despite feeling a little dejected, Shi Nuan knew that Fu Chengyan was a man of his word; if he couldn’t make it, there had to be something more important he needed to take care of. “I’ll go on my own, then.”

“Wait!” Fu Chengyan called out to her before pausing for a moment. “I’ll get Shaoqing to go with you.”

“T-That’s not necessary!”

“I’m worried,” Fu Chengyan responded with a sigh. “No one else in the Shi family aside from your granddad knows that we’re married. They might give you a hard time if you don’t head over with Shaoqing.”

Shi Nuan pursed her lips as her gaze darkened. Eventually, she nodded. “Okay, then.”

“May!” Fu Chengyan called out to her. “Come home earlier.”

“You too,” Shi Nuan replied and hung up. She then remained seated for a while before pulling herself together and getting ready.

Su Shaoqing’s phone call came just as she left home. “Where are you now, Nuan?”

“I just left home.” Shi Nuan hopped into her car and buckled her seatbelt. “What about you?”

“I’m at the hospital. I’m gonna have to ask you to give me a ride!” Su Shaoqing answered with a smile. “I just finished up my work here.”

“Okay. Thanks for your help, Mr. Su!”

“Not at all!” Su Shaoqing chuckled, and his eyes gleamed as he hung up.

This is such an important moment, but he’s making me go there as an imposter instead of attending the party himself? Is this really appropriate?

Still, Su Shaoqing didn’t think too much about it. He headed into his office, removed his white coat, put on a clean suit, and left the hospital.

Shi Nuan’s car was parked right outside the hospital. Su Shaoqing had actually lost this eye-catching, red Ferrari to Fu Chengyan during a bet. He certainly didn’t expect Shi Nuan to be driving it now.

Shi Nuan wound down the window. “Over here, Mr. Su!”

In one smooth motion, Su Shaoqing strode over, opened the door, and hopped in.

With a twinkle in his eyes and a faint smile, he gazed at Shi Nuan. “You must be upset that Chengyan can’t come with you, Nuan.”
