I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 132

Shi Nuan blushed and pushed Fu Chengyan away. “You’re crazy!”

With a laugh, Fu Chengyan turned over and pinned Shi Nuan underneath him. With his two arms next to Shi Nuan and a curve of his lips, he wrapped Shi Nuan’s fragile body.

Shi Nuan gulped, suddenly feeling a sense of oppression. “It’s getting late, Yan. We—”

“It really is. Your body is too weak, May. I think from now on, we should work out together every morning!” Fu Chengyan said while gazing into Shi Nuan’s eyes. There was a lot of meaning behind his words.

Shi Nuan’s heart skipped a beat. By the time she could react, she was already being swept away by Fu Chengyan’s actions.

There was no denying that Fu Chengyan was a pro in this regard. Shi Nuan had just gone through so much last night, but everything he did to tease her would make her lose control of herself.

 

It was a heavy price to pay for being so brazen. The exercise Fu Chengyan spoke of was merely doing certain things in bed.

After they were done, Fu Chengyan energetically kissed Shi Nuan on the corner of her lips and carried her into the bathroom. Poor Shi Nuan hadn’t even recovered from last night, and now her legs had turned jelly-like.

 

Shi Nuan looked up at Fu Chengyan’s profile in anger while laying against his shoulder. She couldn’t help but dig her teeth into his flesh.

Fu Chengyan squinted and took a breath. With a hand on her waist, Fu Chengyan was carefully cleaning her body. When she bit his shoulder, his entire body tightened and a flame lip up in his eyes. “Are you trying to stir me up, May?”

Shi Nuan instantly froze and said, “That’s enough, Fu Chengyan!”

With a smile in his eyes, Fu Chengyan kissed the corner of Shi Nuan’s eye. “Alright, I’m just kidding!” He didn’t know whether to feel tickled or angry, seeing Shi Nuan looking frantic like that. “OK, put on your clothes and head down! Don’t forget that we have to meet your granddad today!”

“Right! Granddad!” Shi Nuan suddenly remembered and couldn’t help but give Fu Chengyan a punch. “It’s all your fault! I nearly forgot all about meeting grandpa,” she said while biting her lip. “What should I do? I haven’t even prepared a gift for him. Today is the day I officially introduce you to him. It’d be too rude to show up empty-handed!”

“Alright, don’t panic!” Fu Chengyan said as he grabbed onto Shi Nuan’s arm. “Put on your clothes and come downstairs!”

When the two walked downstairs, Zhou Zheng had already been waiting for hours.

Upon receiving orders last night to show up here early the next morning, Zhou Zheng did as he was told. He had given Fu Chengyan a call, only to be told to come inside and wait.

It was a long, miserable wait. Zhou Zheng had been here from 8am until almost noon. He had rushed over to his boss’s house before even eating breakfast.

And in the end? The boss walked down while radiating happiness, as though he feared no one would know what he had been up to this morning!

Shi Nuan walked behind slowly, not noticing there was a guest in the living room until she heard Zhou Zheng’s voice. “Mr. Zhou? Why are you here?” she asked while in shock.

After looking at Zhou Zheng, she turned back to Fu Chengyan. “Go on. I’ll prepare some food in the kitchen!”

Fu Chengyan grabbed Shi Nuan’s hand. “Just something simple will do.”

Shi Nuan nodded and glanced at Fu Chengyan, indicating him to let go of her hand. But Fu Chengyan didn’t seem to notice her hint.

Zhou Zheng quickly turned his head to look elsewhere, thinking, such torture! I haven’t even had breakfast, and now they’re being all lovey-dovey in front of me. This is terrific. I’ll kill him!

Shi Nuan broke free of Fu Chengyan’s grasp. “I’ll get going!”

Fu Chengyan retracted his gaze and glanced at Zhou Zheng indifferently. “Where’s the stuff?”

“Right here!” Zhou Zheng quickly handed a long box over to Fu Chengyan. “Mr. Qin said this is an artwork by Liu Zongyuan. Didn’t you say you wanted to give this to the old man?”

Fu Chengyan gave Zhou Zheng a glare, causing the latter to lower his volume. “Mr. Qin had it repaired again, so it’s been very well-preserved!”

With a nod, Fu Chengyan took out the painting to have a look before putting it back into the box. “And the rest?”

“The rest are inside your car.” Knowing that Fu Chengyan was going to meet Shi Nuan’s grandfather, Zhou Zheng began scouring ever since last night, he went to one of the malls under Shengyuan to place the orders and have someone send the items over immediately. He dared not slack off one bit.

Fu Chengyan nodded. “OK. You may leave!”

Zhou Zheng froze for a moment. “Yes sir!”

Fu Chengyan was the only one in the living room when Shi Nuan came out. “Where’s Mr. Zhou?” Shi Nuan asked as she looked around.

“He’s left!” Fu Chengyan looked up at Shi Nuan while in the midst of reading a financial magazine. “Why? Do you need him for something?”

Shi Nuan shook her head. “I just think it’s a bit unfair for him to be working for you even during the weekend! It’s time to eat.”

Fu Chengyan put down the magazine and got up to walk towards Shi Nuan.

He was dressed in very simple loungewear. He only wore a set of light gray casual clothes, but still looked radiant anyway.

The man always looked calm. He often exuded a very cold and distant vibe while wearing a suit. But in casual clothes, Shi Nuan felt he looked very warm and gentle.

He had such a nice body shape that anything he wore looked out of this world on him.

“Who cares about that? You wouldn’t pity him if you knew how much I pay him every month, not to mention the annual bonus he gets,” Fu Chengyan said nonchalantly and glanced at the food on the table. “Didn’t I say something simple will do?”

“That can’t do. It’s already noon!” Shi Nuan couldn’t help but glare at Fu Chengyan. “It’s all your fault!”

Shi Nuan had arranged to meet Shi Yunsheng in the afternoon at Yun Shui Jian.

The venue had been chosen by Fu Chengyan. Yun Shui Jian was an extremely elegant place.

Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan arrived first. Seeing that the woman with Fu Chengyan was the same one as who had come before, the manager naturally took note of her.

Since Fu Chengyan was the one who personally called the place and even requested for it to be closed to the public, the manager had begun preparations immediately.

“This is the pavilion, Mr. Fu. Will it do?”

Fu Chengyan entered while holding Shi Nuan’s hand and nodded after giving the place a glance. “Yup!”

The manager sighed with relief inside. “In that case, I’ll have the staff get things ready.”

Shi Nuan observed the place after the manager left. “This one is slightly different from the one we went to previously!” she said as her eyes lit up.

Fu Chengyan nodded and sat down while still holding Shi Nuan’s hand. Shi Nuan sat next to Fu Chengyan, letting the man hold her hand. He placed it over his knee and squeezed it lightly.

Shi Nuan noticed Fu Chengyan was making a lot of small movements, and especially liked playing with her fingers. Even if Shi Nuan didn’t think there was anything fun about playing with them.

Suddenly, a knock came from outside and the manager pushed the door open. “After you, sir.”

Shi Nuan quickly got up and dragged Fu Chengyan along. “Granddad!” she greeted.

Under the assist of Mr. Yang, Shi Yunsheng walked in while clutching onto a cane. The old man looked up upon hearing Shi Nuan’s clear voice. His eyes gleamed as he saw Shi Nuan and he looked towards Fu Chengyan behind her.

“Granddad!” Fu Chengyan said gracefully, accepting Shi Yunsheng’s gaze.

Shi Yunsheng narrowed his eyes and nodded. “Hello!”

“Don’t just stand there, granddad. Have a seat!” Shi Nuan said while letting go of Fu Chengyan’s hand to help the old man sit down. “Granddad, I believe you know who Yan is! He was also there during your birthday celebration and even gave you a jade chessboard. Do you still remember?”

“Hello, granddad,” Fu Chengyan said with light nod.

Shi Yunsheng gently patted Shi Nuan with a laugh. “Of course I do. How could I not, you silly girl?” He then turned to look at Fu Chengyan. The old man smiled, but carefully sized Fu Chengyan up with his eyes before nodding in satisfaction. “You little brat, how could you not have told me about your marriage? I—”

“Aren’t I telling you about it now?” Shi Nuan held onto Shi Yunsheng’s arm affectionately and snuggled up to him. “You were sick the last time, so I didn’t want you worrying about me. That’s why I didn’t tell you about my marriage to Yan. Yan treats me very well, granddad!”

“You have no shame at all, my dear grandchild.” Despite saying that, it was clear that Shi Yunsheng adored and pampered Shi Nuan a lot. “Have you told your maternal grandfather about your marriage? He’s not as good-tempered as I am. Have you brought Yan to meet him?”

“Yes, we have,” Shi Nuan said with a smile. “Grandpa really doesn’t have a good temper.” She then said beside Shi Yunsheng’s ear, “I wasn’t the one who told him about it. He had found out from someone else, so he was pretty mad about it. Yan and I spent a lot of time and effort to appease him.”

“You little brat!” Shi Yunsheng exclaimed while giving Shi Nuan a light slap on the forehead. “You’re so mischievous. So did you receive your grandpa’s blessing?” The old man was speaking to Shi Nuan, but his eyes were focused on Fu Chengyan.

Fu Chengyan curled his lips. “Thank you for your concern, granddad. We’ve received his blessing, so we’re here for yours today!”

“I’m a very easy-going old man. I’m fine with anything as long as you treat Nuan well!” Shi Yunsheng didn’t have anything to ask for. “But I’m sure you’re aware of Nuan’s situation. To put it frankly, Nuan has gone through a lot since she was a child. She… An old man like me has nothing else to ask for, except for one thing: treat Nuan well. Treat her well for life.”

Fu Chengyan smiled. “Of course. I’ve taken May as my wife, so I’ll naturally take care of her. As for what you’ve mentioned about May’s situation, I don’t think it’s a problem at all. Since she’s married me, I’ll definitely protect her for life!”
