I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 245


    When Shi Nuan saw a hint of lust in Fu Chengyan’s star-like eyes, she quickly pushed him aside.


    Overwhelmed with embarrassment, she sat upright hastily before reprimanding, “Why are you like that?


    Can’t you see how unsuitable the timing and ce are? Keep driving!”


    Fu Chengyan collected hisposure as his lips widened into a smile. His eyes sparkled as he


    stroked Shi Nuan’s hair. “Alright, sit tight!”


    Shi Nuan tucked her lips in. “I already told you that I’m not a child. So don’t keep using such methods


    on me.” She continued, “Yan, your mother and Song Jingyu seem to be…” Difficult!


    When Fu Chengyan heard those names, his eyes sank. Shi Nuan also felt that it was a mistake to bring


    them up now. She thenughed over it and changed the topic, “I would like to eat hotpot today.”


    “Hotpot?” Fu Chengyan raised an eyebrow. He then looked at Shi Nuan reluctantly. “Do you know how


    many times we had hotpot this month?”


    “Can’t we?” Shi Nuan lifted her eyebrows and stiffened her neck as she nced at him. “I love having


    hotpot.”


    Fu Chengyan sighed. “It’s not that you can’t. Although hotpots are delicious, you might fall sick if you


    have too much of them.” Fu Chengyan frowned as he swept his eyes across Shi Nuan. “I’m just


    concerned for your health.”


    “But it’s winter now. Isn’t it normal to have hotpots during winter?” Shi Nuan paused for a while. “It’s


    decided then, we will go out for hotpot.”


    “You mean eat outside?” Fu Chengyan raised his eyebrows. Shi Nuan nodded and replied, “Yes, let’s


    eat out!”


    After what had happened earlier on, Shi Nuan no longer had any desire to cook. She figured that Fu


    Chengyan wasn’t keen on doing so either.


    Fu Chengyan stared at Shi Nuan for a while before nodding. He reached out his hands to touch her


    cheeks and said, “You’re the boss.” Foolish girl. He knew without even asking that she was worried


    about him. That’s why she suggested going out to eat hotpot.


    Both of them drove to Huanhai City as Shi Nuan knew about a delicious hotpot restaurant that had just


    opened. Hence she suggested that they try it.


    After Fu Chengyan parked his car, the two of them entered the restaurant. Shi Nuan had called to


    make reservations before they arrived. Hence, everything went smoothly. The ma?tre d’ led them to a


    private room and Shi Nuan ordered the dishes as Fu Chengyan talked to Zhou Zheng on the phone,


    “Have you made any progress on what I asked you to do?”


    Zhou Zheng was also eating at that moment. Fu Chengyan’s strange question had stunned him. “What


    do you mean, Mr. Fu?”


    “The picture. I asked you to do it yesterday. It looks like you have forgotten.” Fu Chengyan’s annoyance


    could be felt through the phone. Zhou Zheng jumped when he recalled what Fu Chengyan had


    instructed him to do. He answered hesitantly, “Mr. Fu, I…have forgotten about it!”


    “Forgotten! Excellent!” Fu Chengyan’s tone carried with it a hint of anger. Zhou Zheng put down his


    food immediately and sat up straight. “But you can’t me me for what happenedst night. Jiang Hu


    and I went to clear the ambushes near your house!”


    Zhou Zheng felt like crying as he hadn’t had any rest sincest night. He had justpleted his task


    and finally got to have something to eat. He didn’t expect to be interrogated by Fu Chengyan at that


    moment. “Mr. Fu, have some mercy. I’ll get it done right now, I promise. I guarantee that I’ll have


    something to report tonight.”


    “Tonight?” Fu Chengyan squinted his eyes. “Tomorrow morning is fine. Get it done quickly!” Fu


    Chengyan ended the call without saying how he was going to punish Zhou Zheng.


    Zhou Zheng was relieved and wondered if Fu Chengyan had decided to forgive him for forgetting.


    In reality, Zhou Zheng was right. Fu Chengyan wasn’t going to hold him to task as he had indeed given


    a tight deadline. Fu Chengyan kept his phone as he turned to look at Shi Nuan.


    The hotpot had been served, but it hadn’te to a boil yet. Shi Nuan could only stare at the pot


    where the soup was scarlet red. It was going to be extremely spicy.


    When Shi Nuan saw that Fu Chengyan had ended his call, she asked, “What is it? Isn’t the office


    closed for the holidays? Why do you still have something to discuss with Zhou Zheng?”


    “It’s nothing,” Fu Chengyan replied as he noticed Shi Nuan already holding the chopsticks in her right


    hand, eager to try the food. When Shi Nuan realized that Fu Chengyan was looking at her, or her


    actions to be precise, she felt embarrassed and retracted her hand.


    But Fu Chengyan quickly caught her right hand while his obsidian ck eyes were fixated on it. She


    didn’t know what he was looking at as he examined her finger up close, so close that he seemed to be


    obsessed.


    Shi Nuan felt curious as she observed Fu Chengyan’s actions. She took a picture of him staring at her


    finger while he held it. “What are you doing? The hotpot is ready, so we can start cooking now. You can


    let go of me too!”


    Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes as they moved around in a flurry. He then nodded and replied, “Okay,


    the food is ready. Let’s eat!”


    Fu Chengyan let go of Shi Nuan’s hand. Shi Nuan was still perplexed, but before she could ponder


    about it, her bowl was already filled with meat. “What are you doing? I can take them myself. You


    should go ahead and eat!”


    Shi Nuan lowered her head, but her heart was filled with joy due to Fu Chengyan’s sweet gesture, not


    to mention that the hotpot was extremely satisfying.


    They didn’t talk much until the end of the meal when Fu Chengyan suggested that they go shopping at


    the nearby mall. Shi Nuan couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you hate shopping?”


    “Huh? Since when did I say that?” Fu Chengyan reached out and grabbed Shi Nuan’s hand to pull her


    closer to him. He then gently stroked her fingers. Shi Nuan’s right hand had nothing on, so it looked


    bare.


    “Let’s go shopping. It’s time to buy something.”


    “Huh?” Shi Nuan didn’t understand what Fu Chengyan was trying to say at all. However, when they


    reached the jewelry section on the third floor, she immediately understood.


    She was half a step behind Fu Chengyan as he kept hold of her hand. When Shi Nuan looked down at


    her right hand, a wide smile appeared on her face.


    Fu Chengyan wasn’t able to see her smile from the front. But when they entered the jewelry shop


    together, all eyes were on them.


    “Wee, how can I help you? Are you here to buy a ring?”


    The salesperson looked at Fu Chengyan’s dressing. Although she couldn’t make out the brand, she


    could see from the material that it wasn’t something ordinary people could afford. Meanwhile, Shi Nuan


    looked radiant next to him. Although she wasn’t wearing anything fancy, she gave others an impression


    that she was a professional. However, her hand was being held by Fu Chengyan. Hence, her look


    didn’t seem to match her clothes.


    “Sir…”


    “Wait!” Fu Chengyan raised his hand and interrupted the salesperson. He nced at Shi Nuan. “Come


    and take a look. Which one do you fancy?”


    “So, you really wanted to buy a ring for me!” Shi Nuan couldn’t help butugh as she finally understood


    what he was doing just now. “That’s why you were looking at my fingers during dinner?”


    Fu Chengyan smiled with his eyes. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and choose one.” Fu


    Chengyan walked to one of the cabs and checked out the items on disy.


    Shi Nuan followed him and gave up at first sight of the rings. Fu Chengyan caught her hand. “Don’t you


    like it?”


    Shi Nuan shook her head. “It’s not that. I just don’t feelfortable wearing such an expensive ring in


    the office.” Shi Nuan knew that her colleagues weren’t aware that she was Mrs. Fu. Hence, if she were


    to wear such an expensive ring after the incidentst night, they would definitely get the wrong


    impression. Shi Nuan didn’t want to stand out at work like that.


    Fu Chengyan lowered his gaze and nodded. “So what kind of ring would you like?”


    “Erm, something that’s less shy, with a simple yet elegant design.” Shi Nuan went to see other


    disy cases as she spoke, “Yan,e here. What do you think of this?” Shi Nuan pointed at a ring


    with a minimalist design. Not only was there no diamond, but there weren’t any engravings on it too. It


    was just a simple ring, but its shape was kind of special.


    Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes. “Can you please let us see that?”


    When the salesperson saw that the ring Shi Nuan chose was neither eye-catching nor expensive, her


    attitude changed. She took another look at both of them and felt they weren’t that rich. They probably


    only pretended to be rich.


    “Sir, do you really not want to see other designs? This ring…”

    “Show it to us!” Fu Chengyan red at the salesperson impatiently. “What is it? Aren’t you open for


    business? Can’t you satisfy your customer’s request?”


    “Sorry, I’ll bring it out at once!” Although the salesperson looked upset, she still brought out the ring and


    showed it to Fu Chengyan.


    She thought that she could close a big sales deal today. However, she didn’t expect them to be country


    bumpkins.


    When another customer entered the shop, she left them and went to serve the new customers instead.


    Fu Chengyan squinted his eyes as he held the ring above her finger. “Do you want to try it on?”


    Shi Nuan had noticed the difference in the salesperson’s attitude. However, she didn’t take it


    personally. She held out her hand for Fu Chengyan to slip the ring onto her finger. It was a perfect fit


    and did not look too jarring.


    “How is it? Do you like it?”


    “Yes!” Fu Chengyan nodded. He lifted Shi Nuan’s hand that had the ring on to take a closer look. “It


    looks great!”


    “I think so too.” Shi Nuan then took off the ring. “Excuse me. We would like to take this ring.”


    Shi Nuan didn’t say it loudly, but it was audible for the staff. There were a few sales representatives in


    the shop who hesitated to help Fu Chengyan as they weren’t supposed to close the sale of another


    colleague. However, the salesperson who served them earlier on ignored them as she was attending to


    another customer.


    “Sir, are you here to buy some jewelry for thedy? Please have a seat.”


    The new customer was Lin Shen and his fiancée, Zhou Qian. They were on a date and were shopping


    around. Zhou Qian had told Lin Shen that she wanted to take a look at some jewelry. Hence they both


    came into the shop.


    Lin Shen heard Shi Nuan’s voice and looked up. She smiled at them and said, “Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu, what a


    surprise to see you here!”
