I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 102

Fu Chengyan tilted his brows and grinned, “You want to avoid suspicion from others?”

Upon hearing that, Shi Nuan shot Fu Chengyan a death glare. She felt like he was teasing her, but Fu Chengyan gave her a reassuring smile. He then pinched her hand lightly and sighed, “No one knows about us.”

Shi Nuan’s eyes met with Fu Chengyan’s, and she felt like he was blaming her, albeit in a teasing manner. He’s right. I was the one who didn’t want to expose our relationship. But Fu Chengyan had consented to this too.

She did not force him back then. However, she peeped at Zhou Zheng for a split second and then back at Fu Chengyan again. It was obvious that she was telling him that there were some who knew about their relationship.

Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes and glared at Zhou Zheng, giving him a warning.

There was no way Zhou Zheng could straighten his back further, and thus, could only protest silently in his heart. It’s not like I wanted to know! Just then, Zhou Zheng cleared his throat and plucked up the courage to speak, “Madam, you can pretend that I don’t exist at all. In fact, at times like this, I wish I could be invisible.”

Shi Nuan was amused by his remark and looked at Fu Chengyan as she burst into laughter.

She found Fu Chengyan’s assistant to be quite funny. He did not even blink when he said that he wished he could be invisible.

“Okay, then I’ll pretend that you don’t exist.” Shi Nuan grinned.

Soon after, the car had reached the basement parking of Xinhuang Entertainment, and there were a few lots reserved for Fu Chengyan. Zhou Zheng then got off the car to open the door for Fu Chengyan, “Master Chengyan, Qin Hong had called again to rush things up. She informed that Shi Wei is throwing a tantrum.”

However, Fu Chengyan merely pursed his lips, “Let her wait!” He had wanted to witness the extent of Shi Wei’s tantrums.

Shi Nuan got off the car after Fu Chengyan and frowned upon hearing Zhou Zheng’s words, “She’s throwing a tantrum?” Shi Nuan was puzzled. Even though Shi Wei had not treated her well, she had always behaved in front of others.

As an actress, Shi Wei would take good care of her image on different occasions, and throwing a tantrum was the least expected.

“Yep, I think it has been quite some time.” Zhou Zheng smiled as he commented. He was not at all surprised at Shi Wei’s demeanor. It was even quite common among celebrities, as their images were at stake.

“What do you think, Master Chengyan?” Zhou Zheng glanced at Fu Chengyan and asked.

“Take her to the first recording studio, and keep the CCTV rolling.” Fu Chengyan replied as he slid his hands in his pockets. He paused for some time before asking again, “Which script did you give her?” He was unfamiliar with the operations of the entertainment company since he had always delegated everything to Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng thought for a while before answering, “It’s a historical drama about spies. The second female lead is the antagonist, and her ending is quite tragic. Master Chengyan, do you want to change it?”

“No need!” Fu Chengyan nodded his head. “This one will do. Who’s the director?”

“It’s Mr. Chen. Chen Yuming. He is well known for being strict on set. On the other hand, he was quite upset that Shi Wei had been selected without auditioning this time.”

Fu Chengyan frowned, “Then try to console him.” He then turned his head over to Shi Nuan and said, “I’ll bring you upstairs. You might have to come here often in the future.”

“Okay!” Shi Nuan smiled as she thought about the shares that she had exchanged with Fu Chengyan and knew what he meant by that.

Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan went directly to the president’s office while Zhou Zheng called Qin Hong, “Take her to the first recording studio. Is Mr. Chen here?”

“No. Mr. Chen said that the second female lead has already been set aside for Shi Wei and that her audition doesn’t matter. He’s quite upset at casting her, but what can we do?” Qin Hong did not understand Zhou Zheng’s intention, so he asked, “Who is this Shi Wei? How did she get the second female lead role without even auditioning? Mr. Chen has had his eyes set on Bai Qing for this role. Surely he would be bummed out about this.”

“It’s not my intention either. This is an order from the top management. Though it’s up to you guys on how you guys want to treat her.” Zhou Zheng replied nonchalantly, “Just make sure to give her this role.”

“Okay then!” Qin Hong had finally grasped the situation when he heard Qin Hong saying that it was an order from the top. “Then I’ll bring her to the first recording studio then. Mr. Zhou, are you going to watch the audition?”

Audition? More like a good show.

Zhou Zheng’s lips curved into a smile as he thought about Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan in the president’s office, “Yep. I’m going to watch it. This is going to be a good one.”

In the meantime, Shi Wei had been waiting for over an hour, and her patience was running thin. She would have thrown a tantrum already if her agent had not stopped her from doing so.

The staff here are seriously slacking! I mean, seriously, what are they even doing? I’m here because Fu Chengyan introduced me! Doesn’t that mean anything? Fu Chengyan had promised to give her this role and that today’s audition was just for show. She was here only out of respect for him. However, it seemed like the staff here did not take her seriously.
