I Want A Lifetime With You

Chapter 13

Shi Nuan looked at her grandfather in annoyance, while he looked back at her awkwardly, then she snorted. “I can follow your arrangements in anything else, grandpa, but not this.”

This matter was related to her happiness, so she didn’t want to be too rash about this. If Fu Chengyan ended up being like Fu Xicheng, it would be a tragedy for her.

Jiang Shizheng was in no position to keep this discussion going on. His plan was to have his granddaughter meet Fu Chengyan and see if they could get some sparks going, but now that Shi Nuan was so reluctant, Jiang Shizheng thought he shouldn’t interfere anymore. “Alright, I won’t mention this anymore, but Yan’s a nice young man, so—”

“Grandpa!” Shi Nuan frowned. “I won’t visit anymore if you keep this up.” Shi Nuan interrupted him. “We should go out now. Leaving Mr. Fu alone in the living room is no way to treat a guest.”

“You little kid…” Jiang Shizheng was helpless, so he gave up on this prospect for now.

When Fu Chengyan saw them coming out, he looked at Shi Nuan and smiled. “Sir.”

“Sorry for that, Yan. It’s not every day you come here, and yet we’ve been discourteous.” Jiang Shizheng felt embarrassed, since he was the one who pulled this off today. “Cook something for us, Fei.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan were invited to have a meal together, then they spent the rest of the afternoon in Jiang Shizheng’s house. When Fu Chengyan received a call, that marked the end of his visit, and he said goodbye to Jiang Shizheng.

No matter how he looked, Jiang Shizheng thought his granddaughter was a great match for Fu Chengyan, so he didn’t want them to miss each other. “It’s getting late, Nuan, so you should go back too. Will you mind sending her home for me, Yan?”

“Grandpa!”

“I’ll be honored to.” Fu Chengyan replied, then he looked at Shi Nuan with a smile. There was an irresistible charm in his smile. Shi Nuan frowned. For some reason, she disliked Fu Chengyan treating her this way, but now that he had said so, she couldn’t refuse him, or else it would be rude.

Shi Nuan smiled awkwardly, “Sorry for troubling you, Mr. Fu.”

“Not at all.”

They went down after saying goodbye to Jiang Shizheng, but not long after that, Shi Nuan bade Fu Chengyan farewell. “I don’t want to trouble you, Mr. Fu, so I’ll hail a ride back.”

“You seem to really dislike me, Ms. Shi.” Fu Chengyan arched his eyebrow. “Could it be that you have something going on for me?”

Shi Nuan was annoyed by his way of thinking. “Don’t take this the wrong way, Mr. Fu. I just think we should maintain some distance between us, since we’re not related. You seem to be busy, so I won’t be bothering you now, Mr. Fu. Good day.”

Shi Nuan was about to leave, but Fu Chengyan quickly grabbed her hand.

Fu Chengyan squinted, feeling delighted after seeing her blush from anger. “It’s not an emergency though, and I’ve promised Mr. Jiang I’d send you back, so I can’t go back on my promise. Besides, abandoning a lady at the side of the road is not what a gentleman should do.”

Fu Chengyan seemed to be agreeable, but in all actuality, he was being very bossy. The man tightened his grip on her hand, unwilling to let her go. Shi Nuan looked angrily at her arm he grabbed, and her face turned scarlet. “Let me go, Fu Chengyan!” She said angrily.
