I Want A Lifetime With You

I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 195

Both of them arrived at the company one after the other. Fu Chengyan had to oblige with Shi Nuan’s request to come to work separately. The man was terribly upset, but his wife insisted. He had no choice but to say yes in order to sleep in the master bedroom tonight.

Fu Chengyan arrived at the 27th floor using his VIP lane, and Shi Nuan came in through the entrance. She bumped into Zhou Zheng there. Zhou Zheng gave her a curious stare. The man kept staring at her even after they had entered the elevator. Shi Nuan turned to him with a smile. “Mr. Zhou, do you have something to say?”

“Err, did you come to work alone today?” Since there were other colleagues present, Zhou Zheng asked reservedly. Shi Nuan replied with a grin. “Why do I not come to work alone? Do I need someone else to accompany me?”

Zhou Zheng nodded when he realized what she meant. “You’re right, Ms. Shi.”

“I’m here,” Shi Nuan pointed at the floor number. “We’ll catch up another time!”

Zhou Zheng watched as Shi Nuan left, he approved her answer silently.

Song Jingyu became the talk of the town because of what she did last night. Everyone started gossiping about her. They were actually upset as this young lady used her connections to get a job here. However, it was obvious Fu Chengyan didn’t give her special treatment, so they weren’t afraid of gossiping about her.

Song Jingyu realized her colleagues had isolated her. She was working on the 27th floor, but there was only a small area for her to walk around. Mai Qi was the head of the secretary, so she was to assign work for every secretary. Song Jingyu’s task was simple—to review the reports. That was her only task.

Song Jingyu fought with Mai Qi a few times because of this, but Mai Qi refused to give in. The young lady was working under Mai Qi and dared not offend her, so she had no choice but to listen to Song Zhenyan’s advice to bribe Mai Qi. For the entire day, Song Jingyu had no chance to go to Fu Chengyan’s office, let alone meeting him.

She was terribly upset, but Mai Qi was not someone who would get bribed easily. For the next few days, Song Jingyu bought Mai Qi drinks and many gifts, but Mai Qi didn’t accept any of them.

At noon, Song Jingyu went downstairs to meet Song Zhenyan. She complained about how much she suffered for the past few days. “Aunt Song, why did Yan treat me that way? Is he still hung up on Shen Qianan?”

“No,” Song Zhenyan denied it. “I know Yan well. He won’t ever forgive Shen Qianan as she had humiliated him back then. Yan doesn’t love her anymore. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have remained single for the past few years, right?”

Song Zhenyan patted Song Jingyu’s hand. “Listen to me. Stay here patiently. Yan will realize how good you are soon.”

“But I can’t even meet Yan here. How will he realize that?” Song Jingyu wasn’t convinced. “Aunt Song, is he in love with someone else?”

Song Zhenyan was astounded, but immediately refuted it. “Impossible. Did you see any woman by his side? I’ve never seen one. Plus, the Fu clan said nothing, too. I think you’re being worried for nothing. Just hang in there. If it still doesn’t work, I’ll find another way. I’m always on your side.” Song Zhenyan consoled Song Jingyu. “Since you’re in a foul mood, let’s go eat something good. You can come back when you feel better.”

“Can I?”

“Let’s go.”

“Mr. Fu, your mother brought Song Jingyu out.” Zhou Zheng was downstairs and saw Song Zhenyan bringing Song Jingyu out. “What should I do?”

“Ignore her. When she comes back to work, put her absence on record.” Fu Chengyan hung up on him and continued reading the document in his hand. Not long after, his phone rang again. It was Song Zhenyan. “Yan, I took Jingyu out for lunch. Work is important, but being healthy is important too. Jingyu lost weight after she started working for Shengyuan. Yan, did you give her too much work?”

“If I’m not mistaken, mother, it’s only half-past eleven in the morning. It isn’t time for her lunch break yet.” Fu Chengyan told his mother icily. “Since Song Jingyu is now a part of Shengyuan, she should obey our rules. She can leave if she doesn’t want to work here.”

“Yan. Yan!” Song Zhenyan yelled, but Fu Chengyan had already hung up. The woman glared at her phone furiously for some time. “Yan’s disrespectful behavior is growing day by day.”

“Aunt Song, is Yan mad at me? Should I go back to work?”

“Sit down. I’m his mother, so he won’t go against me! Sit down!” Fu Chengyan’s behavior enraged Song Zhenyan immensely. “I’ll send you back to Shengyuan later. He won’t dare to do anything to you!”

In reality, Fu Chengyan put on his coat and left after he had hung up on his mother. Because he wouldn’t be here in the afternoon, he ordered Mai Qi to record Song Jingyu’s absence once she came back as a warning. No one was allowed to intercede on her behalf.

Right then, Shi Nuan had just finished her work. Lin Yu had assigned her and Yuan Jia to deal with the data from their previous survey. Both ladies worked hard for a few days to compile the data and completed the second review. Fu Chengyan would be the reviewer this time.

Lin Yu was absent from work today because of health reasons, so Shi Nuan had to call Fu Chengyan herself.

“What is it?” Fu Chengyan had just entered his car when he received Shi Nuan’s call. “Go on.”

“Are you in your office?” Shi Nuan tapped on her desk. “It’s about the survey data of West City. You said it wasn’t perfect, right? Yuan Jia, Mr. Lin, and I had already reviewed it for the second time. I want to hand it to you now.”

“Now? I’m at the underground garage.” Fu Chengyan glanced at his schedule. “You can come here.”

“You’re going out?” Shi Nuan asked. “If you’re going out for work, I can give the file to you tonight.”

“No need, come down now. You can come along with me.” Fu Chengyan told her and set the timer on his watch. “I’ll give you ten minutes to pack up and come down here.”

“Okay!” Shi Nuan swiftly tidied up the documents into a file and packed her stuff up. She went to Yuan Jia and told her, “I need to head out, but I’m not sure what time I’ll be back. Just call me if you or Mr. Lin needs me.”

“Oh, okay.” Yuan Jia was busy with her work. She didn’t even raise her head to look at Shi Nuan. “Go on. I think we’re done for the day. Director Lin won’t be back for a few days, and we’ve almost finished our work.” A thought suddenly occurred to Yuan Jia as she raised her head abruptly. “By the way, Director Lin told us before his leave that the survey data has to be handed to Mr. Fu by today. I think the documents are with you.”

Shi Nuan grinned and waved the file in her hand. “It’s here! I’m going to hand this to Mr. Fu. But I think he’s going out, so he asked me to go with him.”

“Oh, get going then.” Yuan Jia waved to Shi Nuan. After Shi Nuan had left, Yuan Jia looked up in sudden realization. “Mr. Fu asked Shi Nuan to go with him?” That seems strange, but I can’t really tell what is strange about it.

Meanwhile, Shi Nuan walked to Fu Chengyan’s parking lot with the file in her hand. She saw the man leaning on the door while talking on the phone.

Fu Chengyan spotted Shi Nuan, too. He watched as Shi Nuan ran over, panting heavily. The man glanced at his watch and arched his brows. “You’re on time. It took you nine minutes and fifty seconds.”

Shi Nuan shot him an exasperated look. “Where are you going?” She gave him the file and said, “Here you go. I won’t be following you.”

Fu Chengyan took the file and grabbed her arm. “I’ll see you later.” He told the person on the phone before he hung up.

Fu Chengyan looked at the file in his hand before opening the door of his car, gesturing for Shi Nuan to get into his car. Shi Nuan gazed at Fu Chengyan for a while. “You must be heading out for some important business. Is it okay if you bring me along?”

Fu Chengyan chuckled as he reached out to tousle Shi Nuan’s hair. “Just get in. It will not be a problem since I’ve decided to bring you along.”

The man pushed her into his car and buckled the seatbelt for her. Shi Nuan could only straighten her back and stare at the back of Fu Chengyan’s head. Even though they had been married for some time, she would still feel shy whenever Fu Chengyan did these intimate actions especially in public. They were in Fu Chengyan’s designated parking lot, but people might still show up especially that annoying Song Jingyu.

After Fu Chengyan had buckled his wife up, he realized she was staring at him. The man pinched Shi Nuan’s cheeks and said, “What’s wrong? Is your husband too handsome that you can’t take your eyes off him?”

“You’re the most narcissistic person I’ve ever met. By the way, you haven’t told me where we are going.”

“You’ll find out later.” Fu Chengyan ran one finger across Shi Nuan’s nose before going back to the driver’s seat. The man shot Shi Nuan a pensive look in his seat.

Shi Nuan followed Fu Chengyan’s gaze and asked curiously, “What is it? Is something wrong?”

Fu Chengyan shook his head. “Nothing. But before we go there, there’s somewhere else we need to go.” The man reversed his car and drove out of the garage.

Shi Nuan blinked and look at herself. “You think my outfit isn’t suitable?”

Fu Chengyan raised his brows. “May, you’re getting smarter by the day.”

“It’s not I am smart but your hint was too obvious.” Shi Nuan preferred to wear more comfortable clothes because she had been going to the site lately. The weather had gotten colder, so her outfits were often unfashionable.

“Where are we going now? Are we going home to get changed?”

Fu Chengyan shook his head. “No time for that. Let’s go to the shopping mall nearby Shengyuan.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

When Fu Chengyan drove out of Shengyuan, Song Zhenyan and Song Jingyu’s car had just returned. Song Jingyu spotted Fu Chengyan’s car from afar and yelled out, “Stop! Stop the car!”
