I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 404

The senior manager gasped but continued to report in a dazed state. In fact, he could not recall how and when he had returned to his seat.

At this moment, Shi Nuan sent a message to Fu Chengyan, who replied almost instantly.

She could not help but giggle when she saw the emoticons Fu Chengyan had sent her. Her eyes sparkled with amusement.

This man still claims that he is not jealous! It’s so obvious that he’s lying! I have only treated Shen Shixiu to a meal! Why is Fu Chengyan so jealous this time? He seemed fine when I treated others last time!

Come to think of it… Since Fu Chengyan started to use WeChat, he has been using all sorts of cute emoticons, which even a girl like me doesn’t use!

Suddenly, a word popped up in Shi Nuan’s mind, which best described Fu Chengyan’s recent behavior, and she blurted out, “Vain!” Fu Chengyan is turning more vain over time!

“What happened?” Shen Shixiu narrowed his eyes at her.

Shi Nuan was jolted back to her senses upon hearing Shen Shixiu’s voice. Repressing her smile, she ran her fingers through her hair and replied sheepishly, “It’s… nothing!”

“What made you so happy?” Shen Shixiu smiled as he walked over to Shi Nuan’s side. The two actually looked quite good together. Shi Nuan lifted her eyes to meet Shen Shixiu’s gaze. His eyes are so gentle, and he’s so nice! It’s hard to imagine that he’s Shen Qianan’s brother. Furthermore, he bears such a strong resemblance to Shi Yu. It doesn’t matter if he’s Shen Qianan’s brother; it will never affect my opinion of him!

Judging from the warm smile on Shen Shixiu’s face now, one might mistake him as an amiable person. In reality, however, he was usually cold and aloof. Only in the presence of Shi Nuan would he smile so warmly.

Shi Nuan led Shen Shixiu to the car park. “Mr. Shen, I guess you won’t mind me driving this car?”

Li Heng had gifted her this car as her own car had broken down, and Shi Nuan had accepted his offer graciously. Anyway, it’s no big deal to accept a gift from a family member!

Her new car was also a Ferrari, but it was more subtle than the car gifted by Su Shaoqing. Thus, Shi Nuan had been driving her new car to work recently.

Shen Shixiu nodded and got into the passenger seat. It was apparent that Shen Shixiu was not entirely comfortable, though. The car seemed way too small for his tall, broad-shouldered frame which was similar to Fu Chengyan’s.

After Shi Nuan got into the car and noticed Shen Shixiu’s discomfort, she asked in an embarrassed tone, “Should I give Yan a call to borrow a car from him?”

“It’s fine!” Shen Shixiu smiled faintly and asked as he put on the seat belt, “I’m comfortable enough. Can you please show me around? I seldom come to Jiang City.”

Shi Nuan paused for a moment before replying, “Mr. Shen, you have been in Jiang City for so long, but your sister hasn’t shown you around yet?”

Shen Shixiu stiffened upon the mention of Shen Qianan before replying, “She’s not from Jiang City either, so she’s not familiar here too. Furthermore, Jiang City has changed over the last few years. I’m worried she will get lost, so I have ordered her to stay in the hotel.”

Shi Nuan was speechless.

Shen Shixiu cast a glance at her. “Is there any other matter?”

Shi Nuan shook her head. I wonder what his stand is regarding the whole matter? I have assumed that he will help his sister even if they are only step-siblings. But now, he is helping me instead! Maybe he has given up, knowing that he won’t get anything out of Fu Chengyan? Otherwise, he would have come to Jiang City to find his sister earlier.

Shen Shixiu pursed his lips. At this moment, his phone rang. It was from his assistant, Jiang Zhan. “Mr. Shen, Ms. Shen is demanding to go out. I can’t stop her. Do you think…”

Frowning, Shen Shixiu said, “Wait for me. I’ll come over now!” He hung up the call and said to Shi Nuan, “I’m sorry, but do you think you can send me to the hotel?”

“Mr. Shen, do you need to attend to a matter urgently?”

“Yes. It’s about my sister!”

Shi Nuan arched a brow but did not say anything as she turned the car around and drove to Shen Shixiu’s hotel immediately.
