I Want A Lifetime With You

Everyone in the private room instinctively rose to their feet to welcome their arrival. Even Shi Wei joined in, albeit reluctantly. She was intimidated by Fu Chengyan’s domineering aura. The same applied to Fu Xicheng. He had been gluing his eyes on Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan right from the very moment they stepped into the room.

Fu Chengyan was wearing a cream-colored sweater together with a pair of faded blue jeans. With his pretty face, he looked like a guy in his early twenties. Yet, he made sure everyone treated him seriously with his penetrating gaze.

As for Shi Nuan, she was wearing a similar outfit as him. Obviously, the two were rocking couple outfits.

The two made their way to the table, looking calm and collected. Fu Chengyan first helped his wife with the seat before sitting down himself. He scanned everyone in the room with his penetrating eyes and asked after a brief pause, “Why’re all of you standing?”

“Oh, please excuse us! Come on, let’s sit down!” Fu Yuqing was the first to break out of his trance. His eyes flickered with admiration while examining Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan’s matching outfits. “Chengyan… Well… Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu, I must say that the two of you really look like a perfect couple!”

Shi Nuan smiled in response. “Mr. Fu, thank you for the compliment. I think we look good too!”

She did not think there was any problem with complimenting themselves. With her eyes glinting with delight, she gave everyone else a cursory glance before turning to the restaurant manager standing in the corner of the private room. “May I have the menu, please?”

“Nuan, we already made an order earlier,” Shi Wei couldn’t help but point out.

It pissed Shi Wei to see Shi Nuan basking in the limelight as that used to belong to her wherever she went. While I’m a superstar, Shi Nuan is only a wage-earner. What makes her so special that she’s capable of stealing my thunder now? Is it because she’s Fu Chengyan’s wife?

Shi Nuan was startled by Shi Wei’s reminder. Then, she quickly put the smile back on her face and asked the restaurant manager, “Is that so?”

“Yes, Mrs. Fu!” As it was not Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan’s first time patronizing the restaurant, the manager had long acquainted and been on good terms with the couple. In a friendly manner, he handed the menu to Shi Nuan and said, “These are the dishes ordered by the gentleman over there just now. However, some of them are not quite fancied by Mr. Fu. So…”

Shi Nuan nodded at him reassuringly. “Just leave it to me!”

She gave a fleeting glance at the list of dishes ordered by Fu Yuqing before starting to filter it. “Remove this, this, and that because Yan doesn’t like them. Also, these two dishes are too oily for Yan’s liking too!”

smile, she added, “However, we shouldn’t be wasteful when it comes to food.” Shi Nuan closed the menu and announced, “That’ll be all. Other than the items I’ve removed, I’ll leave you to serve the dishes in the order you decide. All of us will have tea instead of liquor.” She turned to Fu Chengyan before saying to the restaurant manager, “Shall we go for
