I Want A Lifetime With You

Looking at how disheartened Shi Nuan looked, Shen Shixiu had a pressing urge to say something but thought better of it in the end. At last, he let his hands down and tried to look nonchalant. “No problem!”

Pursing her lips, Shi Nuan responded, “Since Mr. Shen isn’t the man I’m looking for, I shall not disturb you any longer than I should.” Shi Nuan was not going to prolong her conversation with Shen Shixiu. She decided not to waste her time since she would not get the answer she wanted from him.

Shen Shixiu nodded. As Shi Nuan was getting ready to leave, he followed suit. “Please let me offer you a ride home, Ms. Shi.”

“No need for that because I actually drove here.” Shi Nuan pointed toward somewhere outside the shopping center. “My car is just at the parking lot.”

Shen Shixiu nodded. “Well, let me help you with your shopping bags then!”

Shi Nuan did not reject his kind offer, so they walked out of the shopping center together. They were comfortable in each other’s presence even though no words were exchanged between them along the journey.

Shi Nuan stared straight ahead as she was walked. Surprise flickered in her eyes when she suddenly spotted a man who looked familiar to her, especially when he scrambled toward a woman and tried to pull her back toward himself. The woman, whose face Shi Nuan could not see clearly, seemed reluctant to go with him. Then, Shi Nuan caught a glimpse of the guy’s face to find that he was actually Su Shaoqing.

Su Shaoqing seized the woman by her arm and pulled her hard toward his chest. The next second, he claimed her lips and gave her a passionate smooch. Shi Nuan was so flabbergasted by the sight that she stood rooted to the spot at once.

With her eyes wide open, she observed their interaction. The woman quickly shoved Su Shaoqing away and gave his face a vicious slap. After wiping her mouth clean in disgust, she scurried away.

What the heck is going on?

As far as Shi Nuan knew, Su Shaoqing had never had any trouble with women before. Although he always acted and spoke frivolously, he was a rather decent guy who did not fool around. However, it was obvious just now that Su Shaoqing was forcing a kiss on that woman.

“What’s the matter?”

Shen Shixiu walked up and stood beside Shi Nuan. When he noticed how her eyes were glued on a man standing somewhere not far away from them, he narrowed his eyes in bewilderment. “Do you know that guy?”

Shi Nuan’s mind was pulled back to reality instantly. In a slightly awkward manner, she nodded. “Yes!”

She took a sharp intake of breath when Su Shaoqing turned around to face her. He appeared fairly unfazed as he covered the part of his face that had been slapped by the woman earlier with his hands. To Shi Nuan’s surprise, there was even a glimmer of delight in his eyes.

The corners of her lips twitched in confusion. Am I seeing things, or is Su Shaoqing actually looking quite pleased to be slapped by the woman?

Su Shaoqing finally spotted Shi Nuan, and the faint smile on his face froze. He first fixed his gaze on her and then on Shen Shixiu.
