I Want A Lifetime With You

The paddle boat was a small human-powered watercraft. By peddling, it could be propelled around the river.

However, it was getting dark. The couple worried that they would drown if anything happened.

Shi Nuan coiled her arms around Fu Chengyan’s neck. She looked at him with a pitiful gaze. Of course, Fu Chengyan could tell that she was unwilling to leave the place without giving the paddle boat a try. He touched Shi Nuan’s forehead gently. “It’s okay. We can come back at an earlier time tomorrow. I’ll peddle with you for the whole day, alright?”

“It’s fine. I’m too old to make a fuss out of this anyway. I just feel bad for missing this since we’re already here.” Shi Nuan indeed wanted to go on the paddle boat but she was sensible enough to not make a scene for not getting her way. “Let me down. We can just take a stroll along the river bay. It’s quite windy!”

“Okay. Hmm, so you can walk on your own feet now, old granny?” Fu Chengyan tried to joke with Shi Nuan.

Shi Nuan’s face reddened and smacked Fu Chengyan on his shoulder. “Put me down now!”

The two of them walked along the river for quite some time until someone from the Fu Residence gave them a ring. It was Fu Zhengyun. “Do you guys know what time it is? The whole family is waiting for you for dinner!”

Fu Chengyan arched a brow. “Didn’t I tell you guys not to wait for us?”

“You…” Fu Zhengyun almost forgot to breathe. “Young man, watch your tone! Didn’t I say to come home earlier today for dinner?”

“Oh right! Oops, I forgot about it! Sorry!” Fu Chengyan sounded nonchalant. “You guys go ahead! It’s already way past dinner time anyway.”

“You little rascal! You may not want to eat, but my great-grandchildren are still waiting for their food!”

“Oh, they have already eaten,” Fu Chengyan replied. “Go ahead and have dinner without us, Grandpa!”

“Pft! You don’t take me seriously at all! Shi Nuan is now pregnant, mind you! What if she ate something that is harmful to her body, huh? You never know what goes into the food they prepare at restaurants!”

“It’s fine. Anyway, we’ve already eaten. Just go ahead and eat without us. We are in the middle of something. Bye!” Fu Chengyan hurriedly hung up the call. He raised his head and realized that Shi Nuan had been listening to the conversation he had with Fu Zhengyun the whole time.

Fu Chengyan quirked his eyebrows. “You heard everything?”
