I Want A Lifetime With You

Chapter 53

It took Shi Nuan a while to realize what Fu Chengyan’s actually meant, but she didn’t get the chance to speak about it again.

They went straight to the meat section in the supermarket when they reached the mall. Shi Nuan cooked at home very often but she rarely bought her ingredients in a mall but the wet market. However, she didn’t cook as much now as she had to work.

Comparatively, Fu Chengyan was clearly more familiar with the place than Shi Nuan. She began to have a different impression about the man in front of him.

Fu Chengyan was someone special to her. He might come from a wealthy family, but he was different from them. He was elegant and well-mannered, but also dark and evil.

Shi Nuan had no other words to describe him, but he was definitely special to her.

Fu Chengyan turned around check on her as he felt she had stopped behind him. He saw her standing still with her gaze fixed upon him.

Fu Chengyan tilted his eyebrow and tapped the shopping cart with his slender fingers, “What’s the matter?”

Shi Nuan came out of her daze and shook her head, “No, I was thinking what I’ll be cooking later.”

“Didn’t you mention them just now?” Fu Chengyan laughed lightly, “Do you think they are not enough? Shall we change the menu?”

“Huh? No!” Shi Nuan’s face flushed with embarrassment, “I was thinking about some greens.”

“Oh…” Fu Chengyan dragged his tone and smiled, “What do you have in mind?”

Shi Nuan bit her lips and shook her head, “Nothing.”

“Take your time. We’ll think about it as we shop.” Fu Chengyan pointed to the front, “Let’s buy a fish first.”

Fu Chengyan was obviously an experienced shopper so Shi Nuan was merely walking behind him when he selected the ingredients.

Fu Chengyan was serious in everything he did. She exclaimed behind him, “I think you can cook for us in the future.”

“I don’t mind if you’re alright with that, my wife.” Fu Chengyan smiled at the little woman who was doing some serious thinking.

Shi Nuan stiffened, “Didn’t you say you’ll think of a new nickname?” She bit her lips, “Stop calling me that.”

“Hmm?” Fu Chengyan tapped his fingers, “But I have no clue.”

“Call me Little Five like my grandfather. He gave me the nickname because of my birthdate.”

“Little Five?” Fu Chengyan staggered at the simple nickname, but he agreed to it as no one else would address her this way, “Sure, Little Five!”

Shi Nuan blushed slightly and that lifted his mood. Fu Chengyan felt happy too, “Let’s go, Little Five.”

Shi Nuan was not used to him calling her nickname. But she got over it immediately as it was better than being called his wife.

They picked up plenty of groceries which was more than enough for the next few days. Fu Chengyan disapproved, “They won’t be fresh if we keep them for too long.”

“Oh!” Shi Nuan placed back the excess groceries obediently, “Then we’ll… Ah!”

Before she was done, a careless customer misplaced her shopping cart and bumped right into Shi Nuan. Fu Chengyan couldn’t shield her in time from the sudden accident.

He was quick enough to pull Shi Nuan aside, but she still sprained her leg at the collision.

She drew a deep breath from the stinging pain on her calf.

Fu Chengyan saw her reaction. He pushed the shopping cart away and rubbed her wound, “Was it painful?”

She could feel pain from where he was pressing, but she shook her head, “I’m fine.”

“Are you okay? I’m so sorry! I was too busy attending to my child that I forgot about my shopping cart!” A lady with a child in her arms came over apologetically. “I’m really sorry! Are you hurt? Shall I take you to the hospital?”

It was obvious that the lady didn’t mean to hurt her.

Shi Nuan smiled at the lady, “It’s okay, I’m fine. I don’t have to go to the hospital.”

“Are you sure?” Fu Chengyan stood up in a sudden and covered Shi Nuan with his colossal body. The lady was struck in a daze with his looks.

This was her first time she had ever seen such a good-looking man. She didn’t even realize that her child was still crying in her arms.

Fu Chengyan frowned at the lady with scornful eyes.

Shi Nuan tugged his hand in worry of the lady’s safety, “It’s okay. I’m fine.” She didn’t want him to scold the lady. She moved her leg about to show Fu Chengyan that she was fine.

When Fu Chengyan wanted to say something but she shook head, “Let’s finish our grocery shopping. I’m so hungry.”

Shi Nuan pulled Fu Chengyan away with a limp. The lady came back to her senses and flushed as they left.

Fu Chengyan knew that Shi Nuan was bearing the pain. He pulled her towards him as he saw her limping her way ahead. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Shi Nuan was confused with his action, “What is it?”

Fu Chengyan carried her immediately without a word while a flustered Shi Nuan hugged his neck, “What are you doing? Let me down!”

Shi Nuan flushed as she was embarrassed with Fu Chengyan’s showing his affection in public. The crowd stopped to look at them She lowered her head and pulled his sleeve, “Can you put me down now? Hey! Don’t place me in the shopping cart! I’m not a child anymore!”

Shi Nuan’s face turned crimson red as Fu Chengyan placed her in the shopping cart. She tried to climb out of it but Fu Chengyan stopped her.

“What’s the matter with you?”

Fu Chengyan’s long fingers pressed Shi Nuan’s shoulders and looked at her. “Don’t move. Do you still want your legs?” His eyes shone with pleasure.

Shi Nuan was touched, “I’m fine! What do think I am for you put me in here?”

“You can choose between sitting in the shopping cart and going to the hospital.” Fu Chengyan gave her two options.

Shi Nuan opened her mouth but decided to keep quiet.

She was irritated with Fu Chengyan’s domineering attitude, but she felt touched by it sometimes too.

Not many men would be so delicate when it came to tending to their partners’ injuries. Hence, Shi Nuan pursed her lips and sat quietly in the shopping cart. She might be touched but she felt weird being pushed in a shopping cart by Fu Chengyan.

However, Fu Chengyan smiled behind Shi Nuan when she was looking. The smile on him influenced everyone around and they were so envious of her.

Fu Chengyan continued to shove daily necessities into the shopping cart while pushing the embarrassed Shi Nuan around. She peeked at him after a while, “Do we need anything else?”

“Yes, we have to get more for you even if you’ve brought a lot with you when you move in.” Fu Chengyan stared at Shi Nuan. She reminded him of his Samoyed with her big round eyes peering at him from her curled body inside the shopping cart.

The Samoyed tend to follow him around when it was little. He couldn’t bring it along when he left Jiang City. He found out later that it was put to sleep because of its old age.

Fu Chengyan’s eyes dimmed with the memory. Shi Nuan seemed to sense his emotions and she just kept quiet.

Fu Chengyan rubbed her head while squinting his eyes, “Shall we go faster?”

“What?”

Shi Nuan pouted her lips while pushing his hand away, “You messed up my hair!” Then she shouted in fear, “Slow down, Fu Chengyan! What are you doing?”

Fu Chengyan pushed the shopping cart in high speed through the aisles. Everyone stopped and watched the two adults fooling around.

Under his influence, Shi Nuan began to relax and came out of her unpleasant mood. She pointed to the front while gripping on to the shopping cart, “Go faster, Fu Chengyan! I need some facial cleanser!”

“Sure!” Fu Chengyan curved his lips upwards to a nice smile and felt delighted after watching Shi Nuan’s smile.

In the end, they were caught by the mall security and taken to a room at the back, “Dear sir and madam, you’ve caused a stir in our mall.”

“Yes.” Fu Chengyan nodded, “Is there anything else?”

The security officer was agitated by Fu Chengyan’s attitude, “I say sir…”

“Please don’t misunderstand!” Shi Nuan stood up and bowed immediately as she glared at Fu Chengyan, “I’m sorry for being too playful and caused you trouble. Please forgive my husband’s bad attitude too.”
