I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 173

Shi Wei had almost broken down when she saw Shi Nuan appeared unscathed in front of her.. She smoldered with resentment after seeing Yun Shen as she recalled the look on Su Su’s face. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists tightly. “Why is Mr. Yun here? Didn’t I see you getting tipsy and entered the lounge to rest just now?

“Yeah, I indeed had a bit too much to drink. It was still Ms. Shi’s friend who accompanied me to the lounge just now!” Yun Shen replied with a sly glint appeared in his wry eyes. The man sized Shi Wei up and continued, “Is Ms. Shi sure that you don’t have to see a doctor? It’s not very auspicious for you to be looking so pale on your birthday!”

Shi Wei staggered and almost tripped.

There were rumors about Yun Shen being fearless and indifferent and did not abide to any principles. Words also had it that he was ruthless and vicious. Anyone who offended him had not ended up well.

It had never occurred to Shi Wei that Yun Shen could be that inhumane. It seemed like he had already found out what was going on. “Mr. Yun, you’re right. As a matter of fact, I’m not feeling well and that’s why I look pale. I shall make a move first then.”

Yun Shen’s lips curled up into a smirk as Shi Wei fled in a hurry. A mischievous glint appeared in his eyes as he turned his gaze towards Shi Nuan. “Ms. Shi, it seems like we are quite fated!”

“Are we?” Shi Nuan narrowed her eyes as she answered.

“Of course! You see, this is the third time I saved you from harm.” Yun Shen smiled. His foxy eyes were fixed on Shi Nuan. “I can stop worrying now after seeing that you are safe,” he said.

“Really?” Shi Nuan met his gaze and replied, “Mr. Yun saved me thrice?” When did he save me? The woman wondered. Even if he had, tonight was definitely the only time.

After hearing what Shi Nuan said, Yun Shen couldn’t help but express disapproval. “Tsk-tsk. It seems like Ms. Shi is really heartless. How could you have forgotten me, your life savior!”

She pursed her lips into a thin line and furrowed her brows. “I really appreciate Mr. Yun’s help tonight. But you did that to save yourself too! Besides, I would have been fine even without your help.” Shi Nuan made it very clear. Even if Yun Shen had not done anything, she would still be unharmed. On the other hand, she felt that Yun Shen had gone a little overboard. Su Su was still a woman after all.

Although Shi Nuan was not fond of Su Su, she felt that it was too cruel for a woman to have to go through this ordeal. However, she was glad that it wasn’t her. When she saw the way Su Su looked just now, she had frozen for a moment due to shock. It was impossible for Shi Nuan to imagine the way she would have handled it if it was her instead of Su Su.

Yun Shen arched his eyebrow and wanted to say something when Shi Nuan’s phone suddenly rang. The woman took out her phone and took a look at the screen. A tender expression appeared in her eyes as she answered, “Hello?”

“Has the gathering ended?” Fu Chengyan asked in a gentle tone. Hearing his deep voice over the phone elevated Shi Nuan’s mood instantly. “Yup, it has just ended,” the woman answered.

“I’m outside now. You can come out!”

“You are here?” Shi Nuan’s eyes brightened. When she noticed that Yun Shen was still looking at her, she walked further away before she continued in a happy tone. “OK, give me a while. I’ll come out now!”

The woman kept her phone and said, “Sorry, Mr. Yun, I’ll have to go now. It’s getting late.”

Yun Shen looked at Shi Nuan with his unfathomable eyes as he followed behind her.

Shi Nuan saw a car parked outside when she walked out. However, it did not belong to Fu Chengyan. The car looked familiar but Shi Nuan could not remember whose it was. When the car door opened, Su Shaoqing stepped out.

There was a look of surprise on her face as she saw Su Shaoqing. She walked over and asked, “Why are you here?”

“Why? Is Mrs. Fu very shocked to see me?” Su Shaoqing said with a smile in his stretched eyes. However, his gaze shifted behind Shi Nuan. Shi Nuan followed the direction of his eyes and frowned as she asked, “Why did he come out too?”

“There’s nothing to be curious about.” Su Shaoqing replied. “Let’s get into the car!”

Su Shaoqing opened the car door on the passenger’s side for Shi Nuan. After Shi Nuan was seated, she immediately noticed Fu Chengyan who was seated at the back. “Yan!” She exclaimed in surprise.

Fu Chengyan nodded and said, “Fasten your seat belt!”

Shi Nuan put on her seat belt at once. Doubts started arising in her mind after Su Shaoqing got into the car. “Why are both of you here?” However, she finally realized what was going on. “So, you doubled up as Su Bancheng today?”

Su Shaoqing extended his hands in front of him and let out a helpless sigh. “Tell me about it. I can’t even assume my own identity now and have to use another’s name!”

Shi Nuan giggled uncontrollably as she said, “Su, you have such a good sense of humor!”

“Thanks for the compliment, Mrs. Fu!” Su Shaoqing stepped on the accelerator and sped off into the night.
