I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 113

The landlord acted swiftly. Soon after, the police arrived and were greeted by a drunk Fu Xicheng. They immediately brought him away.

Although Fu Xicheng was terribly drunk, he was still clear-headed. He seemed to have regained his senses when he saw the two police officers. “I’m here for my girlfriend. What are you doing? Let go!”

“Girlfriend? You’re drunk and causing a fuss. They said you kept loitering around recently. Well, you seem familiar. Didn’t you get arrested last time too?”

One of the police officers took a look at him and seemed to recall a previous incident. The other officer glanced at him too. “Yeah, it’s definitely you. Come on. You’re causing a nuisance to the public in the middle of the night.”

The police took Fu Xicheng away, but the man refused to give up and continued yelling Shi Nuan’s name. “Shi Nuan, come out! Tell them I’m your boyfriend! Shi Nuan!”

A moment later, Fu Xicheng was brought to the police station. He remained there for two hours before he woke up from a drunken stupor. When the police officer saw that he was finally sober, he told Fu Xicheng, “Sir, someone reported you for causing a nuisance to the public. Do you still remember what you did?”

Fu Xicheng seemed upset at that moment. “Did she call the police? I didn’t cause any nuisance to the public. You can call her to verify that! I really am her boyfriend!”

“Fine, call her now.” The police officer shot Fu Xicheng a look and said, “Go on, ask her to come and bail you out.”

However, Fu Xicheng’s face fell that instant. He took out his phone and hesitated for a while before asking, “Can I use your phone?”

The police officer eyed him in suspicion, which led Fu Xicheng into a sheepish grin as he ran his fingers through his messy hair. “My phone ran out of battery.”

With that, the police officer handed the phone over to him, and Fu Xicheng dialed Shi Nuan’s number at once.

Meanwhile, Shi Nuan had just finished an intense lovemaking session as she lay on top of Fu Chengyan, spent from the intimacy. Fu Chengyan’s hand reached out to tousle her hair. He was about to pull her up when her phone started ringing again.

He narrowed his eyes at the unknown number before lowering his head to look at Shi Nuan. “Who is it?” Shi Nuan asked.

“An unknown number. Are you tired?” Fu Chengyan kissed the corner of her lips. “Rest for a while, and I’ll bring you to the bathroom to take a shower later.”

That seems nice. Shi Nuan closed her eyes in exhaustion and nodded.

In the meantime, Fu Chengyan had decided to answer the call. Right that instant, Fu Xicheng’s voice rang out from the phone. “Shi Nuan, you’re finally answering. Do you have to do this? Why won’t you let me in? It was just an argument. And you even called the police? Nuan…”

Fu Chengyan’s eyes narrowed as he glanced at Shi Nuan, who had drifted off a while ago. He put her down gently and was about to walk out when Shi Nuan grabbed his hand. “Where are you going?”

When Shi Nuan spoke, her voice sounded nasal, so it was apparent she was still half asleep. Fu Chengyan chuckled and caressed her forehead gently. “Go back to sleep. I won’t be going anywhere.”

At the other end of the call, Fu Xicheng overheard the gentle male voice and Shi Nuan’s mumble. “Who are you? Why are you with Nuan?” He clutched the phone furiously and demanded, “Who are you?”

But Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes and hung up the call.

Fu Xicheng, whose call had just been dropped by that unknown person, was red with rage. He fumed and glared at the phone as if he was going to burn a hole through it. He tried to dial the number again, but this time, no one picked up.

The police officer in front of him sensed something was wrong, so he asked, “Hey, you wouldn’t have mistaken, would you?”

“Mistaken? Nuan is my girlfriend!” Fu Xicheng retorted. He was about to call her again, but the police officer took the phone back and mocked, “Well, aren’t you something! Who would call the cops on their own boyfriend, saying that they’re a nuisance? I don’t think she’s your girlfriend. Or have you guys broken up? Come on, I’ve seen plenty of cases like these. Why else would a grown man like you end up at a girl’s house in the middle of the night?”

“We didn’t break up. It was only a misunderstanding. Sir, please lend me your phone and let me call her again!”

The police officer had had it this time, so he snapped back at him, “I’ll lend you the phone, but I don’t think you should call your girlfriend. Why don’t you just call your parents?”

Fu Xicheng took the phone but dialed Shi Nuan’s number yet again. After ringing twice, someone answered, “Hello?” It was Shi Nuan. “Who are you?”

“It’s me, Nuan!” Fu Xicheng said as he held back his displeasure. “Who was the man who had picked up earlier?”
