I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 21
Fu Yuqing’s expression changed after hearing Shi Nuan’s words. His sharp rended on her. But
Shi Nuan merely straightened her back,pletely unafraid of Fu Yuqing’s gaze.
No matter how furious Fu Yuqing was, he couldn’t berate Shi Nuan. He could only let out an awkward
chuckle and say, “You haven’t seen your grandpa for so long. Don’t you miss him?”
Shi Nuan frowned. If there was still someone in the Shi family that she truly cared about, it would be the
old man. Fu Yuqing clearly wanted her to return as soon as possible so she could say a few nice words
to her grandpa and persuade him to agree to Fu Xicheng’s and Shi Wei’s marriage.
These guys surely have it nned well. They’re the ones who screwed me over, yet I’m being forced to
cover for them.
Seeing Shi Nuan remain silent, Fu Yuqing continued, “It’ll be the old man’s birthday in a few days,
Nuan. No matter what Xicheng and Wei did, the Shi family is still your family, and the old man is still
your grandpa.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Fu. I’ll definitely return for grandpa’s birthday. Is there anything else? If not, I’ll be
heading back to work!”
“Think carefully about what I’ve just told you, Nuan. There’s nothing in it for you if you keep carrying on
like this. Why can’t you let go? If you could just say a few nice things to the old man, then I promise you
that the sales manager position will be yours.”
Shi Nuan raised her head in shock and stared at Fu Yuqing with a veryplicated expression. Then,
she finally let out a soft chuckle and asked, “Do you not know how to keep your public and private
interests separate, Mr. Fu?”
“You…”
“I still have work to do, so I’ll take my leave if there’s nothing else you have to tell me regarding work.”
Fu Yuqing was aghast when Shi Nuan did not give him any form of respect. “You should know your
ce!” he said ruthlessly while staring at Shi Nuan’s back.
……
A weekter, Shi Nuan received a phone call from the old man. “Come back and visit, Nuan. You can
count on your grandpa if you need anything.”
Shi Nuan knew she couldn’t avoid her problems forever. She was still a Shi family member, even if they
didn’t like her.

Shi Nuan gripped her phone tightly before answering, “Of course, grandpa. You’re my support.
Besides, how can I not drop by on your birthday? Since I couldn’t make it during yourst birthday, I’ll
prepare you an extra gift this year.” She tried her best to sound more natural.
But there was no way Shi Yunsheng wouldn’t notice. “Juste back. I don’t need any of that
nonsense,” he said, sounding resigned.
“Come on, I’ll surely bring you a gift you’ll be happy with.”
After hanging up, Shi Nuan froze for a moment as she saw Fu Xicheng walking towards her.
For the past week, Shi Nuan would evade Fu Xicheng as much as she could. But now Fu Xicheng
seemed determined to not let her escape. The moment Shi Nuan got up to leave, he quickly grabbed
her by the hand and said, “Let’s talk, Nuan.”
Shi Nuan pushed Fu Xicheng aside and stared coldly at him.
“There’s nothing to talk about between us.” No matter how much she used to like him, she could only
view him with hatred now. “I still have work to do.”
“Why must you be like this, Nuan? Why can’t you ept the fact that nothing good would evere
out of our rtionship!?”
Fu Xicheng looked at Shi Nuan in frustration, feeling as though the once kind and caring Shi Nuan was
now gone. Just a year was enough to change a person this much. “Can’t we continue to be friends?”
“Friends?” Shi Nuan scoffed. “No, we can’t. Also, it’s over between us. I’m not clinging to you anymore,
so please stop your nonsense in public.”
“Nuan,” Fu Xicheng called out to her. “Grandpa’s birthday is in two days. Wei and I really hope you can
come home!”
Shi Nuan froze. She could feel her blood boiling, but she tried her best to control her anger. She
clutched her purse tightly, straightened her back and dered, “I will go back, but it won’t be because
of you!”
