I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 160

It was very late when the two of them arrived back home. Shi Nuan had slept in the cinema just now and was quite alert now, so she borrowed Fu Chengyan’s study room to work.

Although she had just entered the company and Lin Yu didn’t assign much work to her, Shi Nuan felt the need to get started as soon as possible and finish the job quickly. After all, Lin Yu even had the intention to let her follow up on the project in West City, which was a once in a lifetime opportunity for her.

After Fu Chengyan came back, he let Shi Nuan use his study room and went to the living room to watch the news on financial matters. Arnold curled up at his feet and looked at him with pitiful eyes from time to time. Fu Chengyan slanted a gaze at Arnold, which caused him to lower his head in submission. Fu Chengyan extended a hand to pat Arnold’s head, “Mommy is working, so you can’t go up there and disturb her.”

“Woof, woof!” Arnold barked, seeming as if he understood.

Arnold actually belonged to Fu Chengyan, but due to his busy work schedule and also some issues, he had Su Shaoqing take care of him. So, Arnold had lived with him for quite a long time. Others thought that Arnold belonged to Su Shaoqing, and Fu Chengyan didn’t intend to take him back.

This time, for some reason, Su Shaoqing had sent Arnold back to him twice, and Arnold seemed to take a liking to Shi Nuan.

Fu Chengyan smiled faintly and commanded, “Sit, boy!” Arnold obediently sat on the ground, staying motionless but keeping his eyes on Fu Chengyan the whole time.

It was already past ten when Zhou Zheng called, “Mr. Fu, the matter has been clarified. A female colleague in Mrs. Fu’s department was jealous that Mrs. Fu caught the favor of Director Lin the moment she entered the company, so she tried to make her look bad in front of all her colleagues, saying that she had someone backing her and entered the company through underhanded means.”

Zhou Zheng mused that this was in fact a very trivial matter, but because it was Shi Nuan whom they were talking about right now, it was a different situation in Fu Chengyan’s eyes. He had personally witnessed the wrath of Mr. Fu towards others, all for the sake of Shi Nuan. That was something he’d never forget in his entire life.

“Okay!” Fu Chengyan nodded. When he saw Arnold pad over to him, he stretched out his hand to ruffle his furry head. Shi Nuan indeed had someone backing her: him!

“Mr. Fu?” Zhou Zheng was a little unsure of Fu Chengyan’s thoughts at that moment, so he hesitated before saying, “Should I deal with her?”

“Deal with her?” The corners of Fu Chengyan’s lips hooked upwards, “That’s not necessary. It’s just a small matter. May can solve it by herself.” Fu Chengyan then said, “She’ll handle it on her own.”

Zhou Zheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He also felt that this wasn’t such a big deal, and based on Shi Nuan’s personality, she wouldn’t really take it to heart. However, he didn’t dare to guess the thoughts of his boss anymore, so he thought that he’d better ask before making any speculations, “Alright, got it.”

“Wait!” Fu Chengyan abruptly said in a voice of authority, “Send someone to keep an eye!”

“Understood!”

Fu Chengyan kept his phone just as the news announcement was over. Then, he got up and headed upstairs.

Shi Nuan was busy in the study room for quite some time and felt that her whole body had become stiff. When she looked up from her work, she saw Fu Chengyan in a bathrobe with the neckline slightly open and a white belt tied around his waist. He stood just by the door with a towel in his hand.

Shi Nuan’s mouth opened in surprise, “Why did you come here without drying your hair first?”

Fu Chengyan raised his brows and walked in, “Are you still not done yet? You just started working and Lin Yu already loaded you with so much work?”

“That’s not it!” Shi Nuan smiled and showed the document in her hand to Fu Chengyan, but didn’t give it to him. Instead, she only waved it in front of his face, “These were all given to me by Mr. Lin. He asked me to read them when I’m free.

Also, isn’t the project in West City about to begin? Since Mr. Lin asked me to learn from him and gave me such a good opportunity, I don’t wanna screw up at such a critical moment!”

“You won’t!” Fu Chengyan chuckled softly and managed to take a glimpse at the document in Shi Nuan’s hand. He never expected Lin Yu to be this generous. “Lin Yu is quite capable. You can learn something valuable from him!”

“Yeah, I think so too!” Shi Nuan smiled and closed the document file. She still felt very awake after her nap just now. However, she knew that she couldn’t rush certain things and that it was better to go slow and steady, “Am I affecting your work by taking up your study room?”

“Nope!” Fu Chengyan smiled and reached out to caress Shi Nuan’s hair, “Not going to read anymore?”

Shi Nuan nodded and kneaded her sore neck, “No.”

Fu Chengyan grabbed her hand and lowered it, making her confused as to what he was doing. Fu Chengyan then went to stand behind her to massage her shoulders. Shi Nuan was flattered by his gesture but quickly stopped Fu Chengyan, “It’s okay. I’m fine.”

Fu Chengyan didn’t listen and only motioned for Shi Nuan to sit still. His strength was just right; neither too little nor too much. Shi Nuan instantly felt her body relax a lot. When Fu Chengyan saw the contentment on Shi Nuan’s face, his lips couldn’t help but stretch into a smile, then he said, “What do you think after reading it?”

Shi Nuan opened her eyes and tilted her head backwards to look at Fu Chengyan, mulling over his question for a moment, “Lin Yu is indeed very capable. I think that he always considers things from every aspect. Take the project from three years ago as an example.
