I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 246

Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan spotted Lin Shen, too. A woman was clinging onto him as they made their way over.

“Mr. Fu, what brings you here today?” Lin Shen swept his gaze across the ring on Shi Nuan’s finger before nodding. “By the way, you got married without telling anyone. You didn’t even throw a banquet to announce it. Are you only buying a ring today?”

Lin Shen gazed at the ring on Shi Nuan’s hand, which was obviously a cheap and simple ring. “Mr. Fu, are you short on funds? Why didn’t you buy a nicer ring for her?” Lin Shen shot a look at the salesperson deliberately.

The salesperson paled visibly at his words. The other salespeople exchanged glances after hearing what Lin Shen said.

None of them knew Fu Chengyan, but after observing how Lin Shen treated Fu Chengyan, they were sure Fu Chengyan was someone influential.

Fu Chengyan arched his brows and shot Lin Shen a look. Before he could say anything, Shi Nuan spoke up. “I think a simple design suits me well. We are the ones getting married. It’s the thought that matters.” Shi Nuan examined the ring before shaking her head. “Anyway, we have been married for a long time, so it doesn’t matter at all. It’s late, let’s go home.”

A smile lit up Fu Chengyan’s face. “Okay!” He turned to Lin Shen. “Mr. Lin, Ms. Zhou, take your time.”

Fu Chengyan returned the ring to its original spot, then took Shi Nuan’s hand before turning to walk out. Lin Shen’s fiancée, Zhou Qian, spoke up. “Mr. Fu, why are you in a hurry to leave? I haven’t been introduced to your wife yet.”

Zhou Qian was a smart woman who was great at reading social situations. She had guessed Shi Nuan’s identity from their conversation. Previously, she didn’t have time to attend Pei Jingxiu’s event and missed the opportunity to meet Shi Nuan.

“Mrs. Fu, hello. I’m Lin Shen’s fiancée, Zhou Qian.”

Since Zhou Qian had stretched her hand out in greeting, Shi Nuan took her hand politely. “Hello, Ms. Zhou. I am Shi Nuan.”

“What a coincidence, meeting you here. Shall we go for tea?”

“No need, it’s late.” Fu Chengyan glanced at his watch and gave Lin Shen a curt nod. “We’ll meet up next time.”

“Sure!” Lin Shen didn’t insist, since Fu Chengyan seemed unwilling. “Next time, invite us to your wedding!”

“Of course.” Fu Chengyan nodded slightly and left with Shi Nuan’s hand in his. After Fu Chengyan left, Lin Shen’s face immediately fell. “Ask your manager to come see me.”

“M-Manager? Who are you? Our manager isn’t here.” One salesperson stammered upon feeling Lin Shen’s oppressive aura. “Our manager isn’t here.”

“He isn’t here? Good. Tell him everyone here, including him, is fired! I want you to disappear from my sight today!” Lin Shen demanded furiously.

Zhou Qian sensed his anger and asked, “What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly get angry? Are you afraid that you’ve offended Fu Chengyan?”

“What do you think?”

Lin Shen was certain the problem wasn’t Fu Chengyan. It was Shi Nuan. Although Fu Chengyan seemed to call the shots and he garnered respect wherever he went, it was obvious that he had come today because Shi Nuan wanted to.

But these ignorant salespersons had looked down on Shi Nuan and angered Fu Chengyan.

Shi Nuan seemed simple-minded, but she was the hardest to please. She was not one to be impressed by materialistic treasures and had no desires or wants, so it would be difficult to please her.

“Don’t worry. Maybe you’re overreacting.”

“Can’t you see? Fu Chengyan agreed to everything Shi Nuan said.” Lin Shen turned and glanced at everyone with a grim expression on his face. “Where is he?”

“Mr. Lin? Why are you here? What’s wrong?”

The manager rushed in while they were talking. Truth was, he had been in the store all the while, but had remained hidden because the situation seemed unfavorable for him. Now that he saw Lin Shen’s stormy expression, he knew he was in deep trouble.

“‘What’s wrong’? Why did we hire you? To chase customers away?” Lin Shen shot a sharp look at the manager, who was already wiping his sweat off with a handkerchief. The manager replied cautiously, “Mr. Lin, I don’t get what you mean. Of course, we wouldn’t chase our customers away. Was it all a misunderstanding?” The manager pointed at one salesperson. “You! Come, tell me what had happened. Why is Mr. Lin upset?”
