I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 170

Swirling the wine glass in his hand, Yun Shen strode towards Shi Nuan. “Ms. Shi, long time no see!”

A little surprised to see Yun Shen in such an occasion, the astonishment in Shi Nuan’s eyes were evident. Cocking her brow, she looked at Yun Shen and exclaimed, “Mr. Yun!” She did not expect that Shi Wei would invite Yun Shen to her birthday banquet.

Shi Nuan had a very bad impression on Yun Shen. It was because of this man twice that she was in danger. Hence, seeing Yun Shen here today sounded an alarm for Shi Nuan. At the thought of Shi Wei’s insistence on her attendance today, she frowned slightly and looked at Yun Shen, “Is Mr. Yun familiar with my sister?”

Arching his brow, Yun Shen teased, “No. In fact, I know you better, don’t I?” Yun Shen looked at Shi Nuan flirtatiously, and his slutry eyes lingered on Shi Nuan coquettishly and made Shi Nuan extremely uncomfortable.

When Yun Shen saw the undisguised look of disgust on Shi Nuan’s face, a gleam of light flashed from the bottom of his eyes but he quickly covered it, “Ms. Nuan doesn’t seem to be friendly to me!”

“Mr. Yun, you are thinking too much!” Shi Nuan said with a forced smile.

 

However, Yun Shen looked at her with interest, “Speaking of which, both we are pretty fated, aren’t we?”

Huh.

 

Shi Nuan sneered in her heart. She could not sit there anymore so she got up and nodded slightly, “Excuse me, I need to use the bathroom. Mr. Yun, please help yourself!”

Yun Shen was thrilled with how Shi Nuan hurriedly excused herself that he twitched his lips. Swirling the wine glass in his hand, he felt that things were going to be more interesting.

When Anna saw that Shi Nuan left the banquet room, she hurriedly followed her.

Shi Nuan could felt that someone was following her. When she sped up so did the other person and when she stopped the other person would stop too. Pursing her lips, she accelerated her pace and quickly closed the door the moment she entered the bathroom. However, the other party was quicker and blocked the door before it could be closed.

Shi Nuan looked up and upon realizing whom the person was, she exclaimed in shock, “Why is it you?”

Anna curled her lips and pushed the door open, and closed the door behind her again. “Yeah, it’s me!” she looked at Shi Nuan and said, “There isn’t much time left. Long story short, I think you could guess why Shi Wei invited Yun Shen over today. Later, she will give you a drink that was laced and get me to watch you. When that happens, I will change that glass of wine and you will pretend to drink too much and leave dizzily. I will take you to the private room but you need to find a way to get rid of me!”

“What about you?” Shi Nuan was a little taken aback for she did not expect Shi Wei to use this trick again. Previously, they had also resorted to the same methods to deal with her. Hence, it was unexpected that they would use the same trick again. “What about Yun Shen? Is he aware of the plan?”

Anna shook her head, “He doesn’t know either, so Shi Wei asked Su Su to watch Yun Shen and drug his wine too. I heard that Yun Shen has a bad reputation, so I don’t know what advancements he would make on you, so be careful!”

After Anna opened the door, she looked around. When she did not see anyone, she heaved a sigh of relief, “I’ll go first. You should take care of yourself!”

“Anna!” Shi Nuan stopped her. Anna turned to look at her, “Is there anything else?”

“Thank you!” Anna might not have been kind to her before, but since she was willing to help her now; Shi Nuan felt grateful to her no matter what her reason was.

Anna twitched her lips, “You don’t have to thank me. I admit that I did not like you before, but you didn’t seem to have done anything hurtful to me, and yet I was punished the same way. I’m doing this for myself. Okay, I really need to go now.”

Shi Nuan stayed in the bathroom for a while before leaving.

When Shi Nuan returned to the banquet room, everyone already had their first round of drinks. Shi Wei looked very happy and kept greeting everyone. Everyone gathered around in groups and chatted. Girls were probably talking about fashion or gossiping while men were talking about business or entertainment.

After Shi Nuan came in, Shi Wei immediately turned her gaze on her. She then glanced at Anna, and when she saw Anna nodding, Shi Wei walked over with confidence, “Nuan, where have you been? I thought you went back!”

“Why would I? It’s my sister’s birthday today so I have to wait until my sister’s cuts her cake before leaving!” Shi Nuan said and looked around. Indeed, she saw Su Su talking to Yun Shen. On the other hand, she saw Yun Shen look at her enigmatically.

Shi Nuan disliked Yun Shen’s unscrupulous eyes so she looked away and asked, “Where’s my brother-in-law? How can he not show up at my sister’s birthday?”

Speaking of Fu Xicheng, Shi Wei’s face sank slightly but she gave a smile. “Xicheng is still busy in the company, you know that he is about to take over Fu Cheng now, so naturally he will be busy!”

“Really? He may be busy but today is my sister’s birthday!” Shi Nuan said meaningfully.

An ominous dark look flashed across Shi Wei’s eyes. When she saw someone coming over with a tray of wine; she waved, “Nuan, we have not had a drink today. Let’s have a drink!”

“Sure!” Shi Nuan looked at Anna’s eyes. After Anna gave her a hint, she pretended to be casual and took a glass of wine.

Shi Wei squinted her eyes when she saw that Shi Nuan was holding the wine that she had laced beforehand. She could not conceal the look of joy on her face so she took another glass. “Nuan, let’s take advantage of my birthday today to clear away the misunderstandings we have between us. In the future, I will definitely take good care of you.”

“I will take good care of you, too!” Shi Nuan smiled and clinked a glass with Shi Wei, and she drank the glass of wine in Shi Wei’s expectation.

When Shi Wei saw Shi Nuan drink the glass of wine, her face lit up more, “Nuan, thank you for being forgiving about what happened before. I promise to treat you well in the future.” May you fall into the pits of hell!

On the other hand, Su Su had been talking with Yun Shen. Seeing that Yun Shen had drunk the glass of wine that had been laced, she squinted her eyes and praised, “ Mr. Yun is really a good drinker!”

“Ms. Su also has good alcohol tolerance! You hold your drinks very well!”

“Mr. Yun is too kind!” Su Su blushed. She actually blushed inexplicably and her heart started to beat slightly faster looking at Yun Shen’s face .

Yun Shen curled his lips and leaned in, “Ms. Su is so beautiful today!”

There was no woman who did not like being praised. Su Su was a normal and beautiful woman. Therefore, it would be natural for her to be very happy when praised. “Mr. Yun…” Su Su’s head was a little dizzy. Yun Shen squinted his eyes, then stretched out his hand to embrace her shoulder to steady her. He said, “Weird, how did I get drunk by drinking so little wine today?”

Upon hearing those words, Su Su’s eyes brightened. “Mr. Yun? Since you are uncomfortable, let me carry you somewhere to take a rest?”

“Okay!” Yun Shen nodded his head and leaned his weight against Su Su’s body for support.

Su Su felt dizzy initially. She was unable to breathe now that Yun Shen pressed his weight on her. She could only feel his weight, so she gritted her teeth and helped him to leave.

Shi Wei and Anna looked at each other knowingly. Anna nodded and looked at Shi Nuan.

When Shi Nuan saw Su Su and Yun Shen left, she staggered a few steps in pretense. Shi Wei hurried over to help Shi Nuan, “Nuan, what’s wrong with you?”

Shi Nuan shook her head and smiled, “It’s okay, I might have drunk too much, but I’m okay!”

“Look at you, let me take you to rest. The cake cutting hasn’t started and I still have to wait for your brother-in-law to come over anyway!” Shi Wei said very thoughtfully, “Let’s go!”

“It’s ok.” Shi Nuan shook her head, “It’s your birthday today. It’s not good to leave. I’ll just sit here for a while!”

Shi Wei was a little embarrassed so she suggested, “Why not let Anna take you there?” She gave Anna a wink, “Anna, please take my sister to the lounge.”

“Okay!” Anna came over to help Shi Nuan, “Let’s go, I’ll take you there!”

“Okay, thank you.” Shi Nuan smiled. In the next moment she wobbled and leaned against Anna who helped her to leave. Looking at Shi Nuan’s back, Shi Wei’s lips curled into a smile. Shi Nuan, this time you will be ruined.

Shi Wei gestured towards those people hiding in the dark and they followed suit.

Anna steadied Shi Nuan, “You can knock me down later; then, you can go back to the venue or leave. Although Yun Shen and Shi Wei are not together, I cannot control him if he take advantage of you!”

“Okay, but I don’t think it is a good idea for me to knock you down,” Shi Nuan was a little hesitant. Anna frowned slightly and said, “Perhaps you can leave first. I will say that I have sent you into the room.”

“Okay!”

“Wait, someone is coming!” Anna heard the voices, “They’re Shi Wei’s paparazzi. It seems like she wants to ruin you.” As Anna said that, she was disgusted by Shi Wei’s character, “Aren’t you two sisters, why…”

“You mean why does she treat me this way?” Shi Nuan sneered, “I don’t know either!” Shi Nuan frowned then suggested, “Let’s go to the bathroom first!”

Shi Nuan and Anna quickly entered the bathroom. The two stayed in the bathroom for more than half an hour before Shi Nuan asked Anna to leave first.

Anna returned to the banquet room. When Shi Wei saw Anna coming, she curled her lips and asked, “How did it go?”

“Don’t worry, I have already sent her to the lounge.” Anna smiled, “How about Yun Shen?”

“I’m not sure yet. Su Su hasn’t returned and the paparazzi had already headed over. Later, we’ll go over.” Shi Wei smiled triumphantly, “I will definitely help you take revenge.” Shi Wei looked at the scar on Anna’s face. Despite applying a thick layer of makeup, the traces of the scar could still be seen. “Anna, when will you go for plastic surgery to illuminate the scar?” Shi Wei asked. Anna touched her face and her eyes darkened. Gritting her teeth, she said, “After the dust settles, my brother promised to help me heal it!”

“Don’t worry, Anna, this time the results will definitely satisfy you!” Shi Wei sneered, “You will definitely not be let down!” As long as Shi Nuan’s reputation was ruined, their hatred could be avenged.
