I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 205
Fu Xicheng was waiting in Shengyuan’s lobby despite getting rejected. He knew Fu Chengyan would
refuse to see him, but thought the man was in the building. Hence, he remained in the lobby. Fu
Xicheng would be sorely disappointed since Fu Chengyan wasn’t nning to go back to his office.
Fu Xicheng waited in Shengyuan’s lobby for a long time. He even watched the staff leaving for their
lunch break. Instead of meeting Fu Chengyan, the man saw someone he had never expected to meet.
Shi Nuan and Yuan Jia didn’t go on the site inspection with Lin Yu today. They had just finish a minor
project, so Yuan Jia insisted on treating Shi Nuan to a meal. As Shi Nuan couldn’t make time for dinner,
Yuan Jia decided to buy her lunch instead. They were heading to a Japanese restaurant near
Shengyuan for lunch when Fu Xicheng spotted Shi Nuan at the entrance of Shengyuan Group.
Shi Nuan saw Fu Xicheng too. She was surprised to see Fu Xicheng at Shengyuan’s entrance.
It had been months since theyst met. Shi Nuan looked great, and she appeared to be glowing. Fu
Xicheng had already given up on Shi Nuan, but his heart started thumping furiously upon seeing her
again.
Yuan Jia didn’t know who Fu Xicheng was, so she didn’t notice Shi Nuan’s strange reaction. Yuan Jia
was rambling about what they would orderter when she raised her head and noticed that Shi Nuan
seemed to be avoiding someone. She asked curiously, “Shi Nuan, what’s wrong?”
Shi Nuan pursed her lips. But before she could speak, Fu Xicheng had alreadye to them and
blocked their way. “Nuan, long time no see!”
Yuan Jia staggered back in shock by Fu Xicheng’s sudden appearance. She patted her chest before
staring at Fu Xicheng in suspicion. “Who are you? Do you know Shi Nuan?” Yuan Jia turned to Shi
Nuan. “Nuan, is he your friend?”
Shi Nuan’s brows were creased. If she had a choice, she would deny knowing him. But since she didn’t
know the reason for arrival, she merely looked at him and asked, “What is it?”
Fu Xicheng frowned, seemingly displeased by Shi Nuan’s distant reply. “What? Can’t Ie if
nothing’s on? Nuan, we were once—”
“Fu Xicheng, please make way if you have nothing to say. Our lunch break isn’t long, so don’t take up
our time!” Shi Nuan had no time to listen to Fu Xicheng’s nonsense.
Her rtionship with Fu Xicheng was already over for some time. She had already given up and
forgotten about that man since she wasn’t someone who refused to move on.
Fu Xicheng’s face fell when he heard her answer. But because of the stranger beside Shi Nuan, he
couldn’t retort back. The man gave Yuan Jia an apologetic look. “Hello, you must be Nuan’s colleague.
Can you please excuse us? I need to talk to Nuan.”
“Well…” Yuan Jia was stumped as she turned to Shi Nuan. It was obvious Shi Nuan didn’t like the man
at all, and wouldn’t want to talk to him in private. “I’m sorry, sir. You heard her, too. We don’t have time
to talk to you now. Please don’t waste our lunch break as we need toe back to workter.”
Since Shi Nuan had no intention to talk to Fu Xicheng, Yuan Jia took Shi Nuan’s hand and left. But Fu
Xicheng wouldn’t let them leave. “Nuan, can’t you listen to me?”
“What do you have to say, Mr. Fu? I don’t think there’s anything to talk about.” Shi Nuan gave him a
smile. “You can say it here. I’ll give you two minutes, and we’ll leave right after that.”
“You… Nuan, how are you doing in Shengyuan?” Fu Xicheng was about to fly into a fit of rage, but he
held his anger back upon seeing Shi Nuan’s expression.
“Can’t you see? I’m doing well as long as I don’t see you. Anything else, Mr. Fu?”
Fu Xicheng’s face had already darkened as he said, “I’m d that you’re doing well. Well… Which
department in Shengyuan are you in? I remember you were in the project management department
previously. After leaving Fucheng, I thought you would—”
“Mr. Fu, get to the point. I don’t think you’re here for me. Why are you here?”
“I-I just want to know if you’re doing well. I also want to ask about the West City project. Since you’re in
the project management department, I believe you know about it, so—”
“I’m sorry,” Shi Nuan cut Fu Xicheng off. “Since you’re aware that I’m working at Shengyuan now, I’m
sure you understand that my loyalties lie with thispany. This is inside information, so I don’t think
you should ask me about it. If I leak such vital information, how would I keep my foothold in this
industry.”
Fu Xicheng froze. “I didn’t mean that. I just wanted to ask if you know anything about the project. Why
did Shengyuan give up on working with Fucheng suddenly? Previously we—”
“Give up? Did Shengyuan ever verbalize a coboration with Fucheng?” Shi Nuan scoffed. “Or was it
all your delusion?” Shi Nuan nced at her watch. “Your two minutes are up. I’m sorry!”
Shi Nuan nudged Yuan Jia, who immediately said, “Sir, your questions are rted to ourpany’s
internal affairs. I hope you won’t make it difficult for Shi Nuan. No matter what your rtionship is,
business is business. I’m sorry, but we have to go.”
As Yuan Jia was present, Fu Xicheng’s hands were tied.
After Shi Nuan left with Yuan Jia, Fu Xicheng left, too. Shi Nuan didn’t tell him any useful information,
but her attitude hinted that Shengyuan never intended to coborate with Fucheng in the first ce.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.
After Shi Nuan left with Yuan Jia, Yuan Jia started to prod Shi Nuan, “This Fu Xicheng isn’t rted to
our boss, right?”
“I think so!” Shi Nuan’s lips curved up in a smirk.
Actually, they weren’t rted. But Fu Xicheng’s family would, of course, try their best to establish
connections with Fu Chengyan. But they didn’t even know their ce.
“How are you rted to him? I think he was staring at you strangely. His words were strange, too. He
seemed like a nice man, but after close inspection, I don’t really like him. He even tried to use you.”
Yuan Jia had a low opinion of that man. She was suspicious when Shi Nuan remained silent. “Don’t tell
me… You’re in a rtionship with him?”
“No!” Shi Nuan’s lips thinned. “He’s my sister’s husband, and also my previous superior.”
“Oh, right. He mentioned Fucheng, and you worked there previously. So you and him…”
“We’re not on good terms. Otherwise, I wouldn’t havee to Shengyuan.” Shi Nuan obviously wanted
to stop talking about Fu Xicheng. “He must be here to ask why Fucheng wasn’t chosen for the West
City project.” That was just Shi Nuan’s guess, but she was quite certain of it.
Yuan Jia shrugged. “Well, we’re coborating with Li Group this time. Fucheng is nothingpared to
Li Group.” Yuan Jia chuckled as they went across the road, heading to the Japanese restaurant. Once
they reached the restaurant, Yuan Jia immediately found a table. “Today’s lunch is on me, so feel free
to order anything you want.”
“Sure!”
Meanwhile, after failing to meet Fu Chengyan at Shengyuan, Fu Xicheng went home and told his father
what he had found out. Fu Yuqing brought him to the Fu n’s residence at once.
The Fu n was at home today. Fu Sheng, Fu Heng, and their respective wives, as well as Fu
Zhengyun were all present.
Fu Yuqing arrived with loads of gift, and the butler couldn’t stop him from ordering other servants to
carry the gifts in.
Fu Zhengyun was ying chess with Fu Sheng upstairs, while Fu Heng and his wife remained in their
room. Downstairs, Song Zhenyan was making tea when she heard themotion out there. “You don’t
have to do this as you’re the butler. Let the other servants do this.”
“Here, Hang. Move all the supplements in. I haven’t been here in a while. How is Old Master Fu?”
Song Zhenyan faltered when she noticed a middle-aged man walking in like he was familiar with the
ce.
Song Zhenyan rarely came to Jiang City, so she didn’t know who Fu Yuqing was, let alone the
connection he had with Fu n. All she noticed was that the man entered and started ordering the
butler around. The butler wouldn’t even listen to her orders.
The butler was definitely upset. “Mr. Fu, I told you Old Master Fu isn’t receiving any guests today.”
“I’m not a guest. My surname is Fu, and we belong to the same n. Our ancestors were a family, so
we’re considered rtives. I was free and decided to visit Old Master Fu since I haven’t visited him in a
while.”
“Oh, you have a guest?” Fu Yuqing’s gaze settled on Song Zhenyan, and his eyes widened in awe
when he saw her exquisite looks. “You said Old Master Fu isn’t receiving guests. Isn’t this a guest?”
“Hmph!” Song Zhenyan harrumphed in disgust. The middle-aged man had left a poor impression on
her. “Who is this? I think you’re getting incapabletely. Why did you allow strangers to enter the
house?”
