I Want A Lifetime With You

“But I…”

“Yeah, you did!” Shi Nuan grinned at Fu Zhengyun stammering. “I was asking if Mr. Fu wanted to eat something just now, but it seemed like you were not in the mood to eat. However, you didn’t forbid me from eating after I told you I’m going to have a piece of the cake.”

“That doesn’t mean you can eat here!” Fu Zhengyun was vexed by Shi Nuan’s theory. “You should know better, Shi Nuan! You have worked here for a considerable amount of time. If everyone eats at their desks, the whole office space will reek of food!”

“Yeah, all the more reason it’s appropriate for me to eat here! The odor of the food won’t leave this room.” Shi Nuan saw that the water was boiling and poured it over the tea set. “Mr. Fu, please don’t be angry! For a man your age, it’s better if you stay relaxed. It’s not good for your health if you’re all worked up.”

“You!”

Fu Zhengyun was speechless. He could only glare at Shi Nuan. Shi Nuan did not fear him at all. She smiled gently at Fu Zhengyun in response. “There’s a reason Yan has food in his office. If it’s not for eating, then what is it for? Am I to offer them to the gods and pray for the prosperity of Shengyuan?”

“Nonsense!”

“Mr. Fu, which part of my speech did I not make sense?”

“Shut your mouth!” Fu Zhengyun slammed his palm on the tabletop. He finally blew his top. “Shi Nuan, do you have no respect whatsoever for the seniors? Does it thrill you to talk back?”

Shi Nuan tried to hold in her laughter. Fu Zhengyun looked comical as he scowled at Shi Nuan. Shi Nuan put in a lot of effort to maintain a straight face. She still needed to reply to Fu Zhengyun.

“Mr. Fu, my apologies. However, I wasn’t retaliating at all. I was merely speaking the truth.” Shi Nuan plopped a bag of tea leaves into the hot water and started brewing tea.

Fu Zhengyun felt like he was of no threat to Shi Nuan. He clenched his teeth upon the smug look on Shi Nuan’s face. He was now even more disapproving of Shi Nuan as Fu Chengyan’s wife.

In truth, Shi Nuan wanted to please Fu Zhengyun, but with Fu Zhengyun’s quirky demeanor, she had a feeling he still wouldn’t accept her even if she followed his wishes. Furthermore, Fu Chengyan told her to not take Fu Chengyan too seriously. Thus, Fu Chengyan decided to just deal with Fu Zhengyun as she saw fit.

Now, Shi Nuan was in a pretty good mood. As she was brewing tea, she tried to initiate a few conversations with Fu Zhengyun. Soon, the tea was ready to be served. Shi Nuan poured some tea into a teacup and took it to Fu Zhengyun. “Mr. Fu, it’s been a while since you last visited the company. Anything urgent you need to discuss with Yan?”

“Why do you have to know? Do you think I’ll spill anything to you? You are only a normal employee of Shengyuan. Speaking of which, why are you here instead of working at your desk? So what if you are Yan’s wife? If you do anything wrong, Yan will not be able to cover for you. You ought to be professional and keep your personal life separate from your work-life!”

Fu Zhengyun sneered at Shi Nuan. There was a triumphant glow in his eyes. Obviously, he was elated for being able to find fault with Shi Nuan. Meanwhile, Shi Nuan was both amused and vexed. All in all, Shi Nuan actually found Fu Zhengyun quite adorable, even though he was superb at pissing people off.

“Mr. Fu, you might not know this. I have taken a long leave. Hence, I…” Shi Nuan purposely dragged her words. She wanted to revel in Fu Zhengyun’s reaction to her pregnancy.
