I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 31

“Nuan is here?”

Mr. Yang, the Shi family’s housekeeper, was the first person to notice Shi Nuan. “Hurry over! What are you standing outside for?” he said with a smile.

“It may not be winter yet, but the autumn wind can get pretty cold. Come on in, Nuan. Go say hi to the old man. You have no idea how much he misses you!”

Mr. Yang had been the one to serve and remain alongside Shi Yunsheng all these years. Having stayed in the Shi family home all this while, he was well aware of everyone’s characters and certainly knew how much the old man loved Shi Nuan.

Shi Nuan’s felt tears well up in her eyes. Her hand felt warm in his. “OK, then take me to see grandpa! How has he been? Is he eating well?”

“He’s eating well and is full of energy!” Mr. Yang said with a smile. “You really do care about him. He’s exceptionally happy knowing that you’d come back today.”

 

Mr. Yang knew Shi Nuan didn’t like being in noisy settings, so they avoided the crowd by passing through the backyard, then headed upstairs to meet Shi Yunsheng.

It may have been Shi Yunsheng’s birthday, but the true motive behind this party was for Shi Jingzheng to make some new connections with well-known businessmen. Shi Yunsheng was already old, so he had little interest in such affairs. If it weren’t for Shi Nuan, he wouldn’t have agreed to this celebration.

 

Shi Nuan went up to the second floor, walked pass the corridor and reached Shi Yunsheng’s study room. She knocked on the door. “Grandpa! It’s me, Nuan!”

Shi Yunsheng’s eyes instantly lit up. “Come in, Nuan!”

Shi Nuan pushed the door open to see Shi Yunsheng practicing his calligraphy. She walked over with a smile. “Hi, grandpa.”

“Nuan!”
