I Want a Lifetime with You

Fu Xicheng was waiting in Shengyuan’s lobby despite getting rejected. He knew Fu Chengyan would refuse to see him, but thought the man was in the building. Hence, he remained in the lobby. Fu Xicheng would be sorely disappointed since Fu Chengyan wasn’t planning to go back to his office.

Fu Xicheng waited in Shengyuan’s lobby for a long time. He even watched the staff leaving for their lunch break. Instead of meeting Fu Chengyan, the man saw someone he had never expected to meet.

Shi Nuan and Yuan Jia didn’t go on the site inspection with Lin Yu today. They had just finish a minor project, so Yuan Jia insisted on treating Shi Nuan to a meal. As Shi Nuan couldn’t make time for dinner, Yuan Jia decided to buy her lunch instead. They were heading to a Japanese restaurant near Shengyuan for lunch when Fu Xicheng spotted Shi Nuan at the entrance of Shengyuan Group.

Shi Nuan saw Fu Xicheng too. She was surprised to see Fu Xicheng at Shengyuan’s entrance.

It had been months since they last met. Shi Nuan looked great, and she appeared to be glowing. Fu Xicheng had already given up on Shi Nuan, but his heart started thumping furiously upon seeing her again.

Yuan Jia didn’t know who Fu Xicheng was, so she didn’t notice Shi Nuan’s strange reaction. Yuan Jia was rambling about what they would order later when she raised her head and noticed that Shi Nuan seemed to be avoiding someone. She asked curiously, “Shi Nuan, what’s wrong?”

Shi Nuan pursed her lips. But before she could speak, Fu Xicheng had already come to them and blocked their way. “Nuan, long time no see!”

Yuan Jia staggered back in shock by Fu Xicheng’s sudden appearance. She patted her chest before staring at Fu Xicheng in suspicion. “Who are you? Do you know Shi Nuan?” Yuan Jia turned to Shi Nuan. “Nuan, is he your friend?”

Shi Nuan’s brows were creased. If she had a choice, she would deny knowing him. But since she didn’t know the reason for arrival, she merely looked at him and asked, “What is it?”

Fu Xicheng frowned, seemingly displeased by Shi Nuan’s distant reply. “What? Can’t I come if nothing’s on? Nuan, we were once—”

“Fu Xicheng, please make way if you have nothing to say. Our lunch break isn’t long, so don’t take up our time!” Shi Nuan had no time to listen to Fu Xicheng’s nonsense.

Her relationship with Fu Xicheng was already over for some time. She had already given up and forgotten about that man since she wasn’t someone who refused to move on.

Fu Xicheng’s face fell when he heard her answer. But because of the stranger beside Shi Nuan, he couldn’t retort back. The man gave Yuan Jia an apologetic look. “Hello, you must be Nuan’s colleague. Can you please excuse us? I need to talk to Nuan.”
