I Want A Lifetime With You

Shi Nuan knew it was impolite for her to ask. Besides, Shen Shixiu was Shen Qianan’s brother after all. It would be quite weird for her to pose the question. Having said that, Shi Nuan still blurted the question. Her intuition was telling her that Shen Shixiu was unlike his sister.

Shen Shixiu’s eyes glinted with delight when he saw the text from Shi Nuan. His slender fingers brushed against the screen, focusing on the few words in Shi Nuan’s text. The delight in his eyes was apparent.

Jiang Zhan was standing right opposite to him. He shuddered at the sight of his boss’s smile.

“Let’s go back!” Shen Shixiu tucked away his phone and lifted his head to look at Jiang Zhan. “How’s the preparation going?”

“Everything is ready, sir. But it seems like Ms. Qianan is reluctant to go back!” Jiang Zhan tried to sound Shen Shixiu out as he glanced at him. Shen Shixiu’s face sank. “She doesn’t want to leave? Then take Yu with you!”

“But…” Jiang Zhan hesitated. “Yu is still too young. Sir, I think it’s quite heartless if you really do so…” “Yu is Ms. Qianan’s lifeline. She…”

“Her lifeline? Try taking Yu away and see if she cares more about her son or Fu Chengyan!” Shen Shixiu rose and noticed his phone beeping. He took out his phone. It was still a text from Shi Nuan: Mr. Shen, what time is your flight tomorrow? Would you like to be Yan and my guest?

Shen Shixiu’s gaze darkened. He looked at the text. His gaze grew frosty, and he did not reply to the text. “What time is the flight tomorrow?”

“Three in the afternoon, sir. You need to sign a contract in the morning.” Jiang Zhan reported. “Sir, what time is your meeting with Ms. Shi? I will make the arrangements now!”

“No need!” Shen Shixiu cast a glance at Jiang Zhan. “Go back and get packing. We will head back tomorrow.”

Jiang Zhan looked at his silhouette. It’s getting harder and harder to read him.

Shi Nuan did not get a reply from Shen Shixiu and sent another text: Mr. Shen, do you need me to book the restaurant? He did not reply either.

The corner of her mouth quirked up as she raised a brow. Maybe Shen Shixiu is busy. So, she did not send another text. However, she looked at Shen Shixiu’s profile ID. Miss.

Shi Nuan was stumped. She did not know what it meant. Then, she proceeded to save his contact.

Some time had passed but Shi Nuan still felt quite bored. She rose and left Fu Chengyan’s office and headed toward the Project Management Department.

Ever since Shi Nuan knew that she was pregnant, she had not been to the office for almost half a month. The other people in the office were gossiping about her. They wondered if she had offended the higher-ups; or if her absence was due to her ambiguous relationship with Mr. Fu.
