I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 170

Swirling the wine glass in his hand, Yun Shen strode towards Shi Nuan. “Ms. Shi, long time no see!”

A little surprised to see Yun Shen in such an occasion, the astonishment in Shi Nuan’s eyes were evident. Cocking her brow, she looked at Yun Shen and exclaimed, “Mr. Yun!” She did not expect that Shi Wei would invite Yun Shen to her birthday banquet.

Shi Nuan had a very bad impression on Yun Shen. It was because of this man twice that she was in danger. Hence, seeing Yun Shen here today sounded an alarm for Shi Nuan. At the thought of Shi Wei’s insistence on her attendance today, she frowned slightly and looked at Yun Shen, “Is Mr. Yun familiar with my sister?”

Arching his brow, Yun Shen teased, “No. In fact, I know you better, don’t I?” Yun Shen looked at Shi Nuan flirtatiously, and his slutry eyes lingered on Shi Nuan coquettishly and made Shi Nuan extremely uncomfortable.

When Yun Shen saw the undisguised look of disgust on Shi Nuan’s face, a gleam of light flashed from the bottom of his eyes but he quickly covered it, “Ms. Nuan doesn’t seem to be friendly to me!”

“Mr. Yun, you are thinking too much!” Shi Nuan said with a forced smile.

 

However, Yun Shen looked at her with interest, “Speaking of which, both we are pretty fated, aren’t we?”

Huh.

 

Shi Nuan sneered in her heart. She could not sit there anymore so she got up and nodded slightly, “Excuse me, I need to use the bathroom. Mr. Yun, please help yourself!”

Yun Shen was thrilled with how Shi Nuan hurriedly excused herself that he twitched his lips. Swirling the wine glass in his hand, he felt that things were going to be more interesting.

When Anna saw that Shi Nuan left the banquet room, she hurriedly followed her.

Shi Nuan could felt that someone was following her. When she sped up so did the other person and when she stopped the other person would stop too. Pursing her lips, she accelerated her pace and quickly closed the door the moment she entered the bathroom. However, the other party was quicker and blocked the door before it could be closed.

Shi Nuan looked up and upon realizing whom the person was, she exclaimed in shock, “Why is it you?”

Anna curled her lips and pushed the door open, and closed the door behind her again. “Yeah, it’s me!” she looked at Shi Nuan and said, “There isn’t much time left. Long story short, I think you could guess why Shi Wei invited Yun Shen over today. Later, she will give you a drink that was laced and get me to watch you. When that happens, I will change that glass of wine and you will pretend to drink too much and leave dizzily. I will take you to the private room but you need to find a way to get rid of me!”

“What about you?” Shi Nuan was a little taken aback for she did not expect Shi Wei to use this trick again. Previously, they had also resorted to the same methods to deal with her. Hence, it was unexpected that they would use the same trick again. “What about Yun Shen? Is he aware of the plan?”

Anna shook her head, “He doesn’t know either, so Shi Wei asked Su Su to watch Yun Shen and drug his wine too. I heard that Yun Shen has a bad reputation, so I don’t know what advancements he would make on you, so be careful!”

After Anna opened the door, she looked around. When she did not see anyone, she heaved a sigh of relief, “I’ll go first. You should take care of yourself!”

“Anna!” Shi Nuan stopped her. Anna turned to look at her, “Is there anything else?”

“Thank you!” Anna might not have been kind to her before, but since she was willing to help her now; Shi Nuan felt grateful to her no matter what her reason was.

Anna twitched her lips, “You don’t have to thank me. I admit that I did not like you before, but you didn’t seem to have done anything hurtful to me, and yet I was punished the same way. I’m doing this for myself. Okay, I really need to go now.”

Shi Nuan stayed in the bathroom for a while before leaving.

When Shi Nuan returned to the banquet room, everyone already had their first round of drinks. Shi Wei looked very happy and kept greeting everyone. Everyone gathered around in groups and chatted. Girls were probably talking about fashion or gossiping while men were talking about business or entertainment.

After Shi Nuan came in, Shi Wei immediately turned her gaze on her. She then glanced at Anna, and when she saw Anna nodding, Shi Wei walked over with confidence, “Nuan, where have you been? I thought you went back!”

“Why would I? It’s my sister’s birthday today so I have to wait until my sister’s cuts her cake before leaving!” Shi Nuan said and looked around. Indeed, she saw Su Su talking to Yun Shen. On the other hand, she saw Yun Shen look at her enigmatically.

Shi Nuan disliked Yun Shen’s unscrupulous eyes so she looked away and asked, “Where’s my brother-in-law? How can he not show up at my sister’s birthday?”

Speaking of Fu Xicheng, Shi Wei’s face sank slightly but she gave a smile. “Xicheng is still busy in the company, you know that he is about to take over Fu Cheng now, so naturally he will be busy!”

“Really? He may be busy but today is my sister’s birthday!” Shi Nuan said meaningfully.

An ominous dark look flashed across Shi Wei’s eyes. When she saw someone coming over with a tray of wine; she waved, “Nuan, we have not had a drink today. Let’s have a drink!”

“Sure!” Shi Nuan looked at Anna’s eyes. After Anna gave her a hint, she pretended to be casual and took a glass of wine.
