  • Jiang Shizheng understood what he was saying quickly, and his expression froze, but he snapped out of it quickly. “She just came back from overseas, so I think she's still adapting to the jetlag. Since you're here today, Yan, why don't you stay for a meal?” He then called Aunt Fei over. “Get some groceries. Nuan and Yan are going to have their meal here today, so pick up the pace.” Jiang Shizheng took out a few notes and handed it to Aunt Fei.
  • Aunt Fei had been working here for years, so she knew what Jiang Shizheng was thinking. She squinted before taking the money and left. “Yes, sir. Enjoy your chat with Mr. Fu and the little young lady.”
  • Shi Nuan looked at Fu Chengyan while her grandfather was talking to Aunt Fei. She couldn't understand how Fu Chengyan would know Jiang Shizheng. On the other hand, Fu Chengyan smiled at her. “You seem surprised to see me, Ms. Shi.”
  • “Of course I am. Aren't you? Are you really my grandpa's student?” Shi Nuan couldn't believe it, for Fu Chengyan was a no ordinary person.
  • Fu Chengyan arched his eyebrow, but he did not answer her. “Do you think we'll lie to you? There is no need for that.” Fu Chengyan replied. Shi Nuan bristled, wanting to retort, but she was out of any comebacks.
  • Jiang Shizheng's eyes gleamed, then his gaze flitting between Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan. “She's the girl I've been talking to you about, Yan. My granddaughter has been a great student, and now she's a director in her company.” Jiang Shizheng praised his granddaughter to high heavens, and Fu Chengyan agreed. Whenever Fu Chengyan glanced at her, Shi Nuan could feel her skin tingle.
  • “Alright, you guys have fun. I'll go to my study now.” Jiang Shizheng patted Shi Nuan's hand. “He's our guest, Nuan, so entertain him for me.”
  • Jiang Shizheng left before Shi Nuan could refuse. Shi Nuan wanted to follow him, but after she glanced at the unmoving Fu Chengyan, the woman sat down reluctantly. “I've never heard my grandpa talk about you, Mr. Fu. When did you become his student?”
  • He squinted. “Is that so? But Mr. Jiang always talks about you.” Fu Chengyan replied. When he stood up, Shi Nuan scrambled backward in shock. “Stay away from me!” She looked at him angrily.
  • “I thought you said you don't know me, Ms. Shi. We should sit closer and get to know each other quicker, no?” Fu Chengyan smiled. “We shouldn't let Mr. Jiang down, you know.” He whispered in her ear.
  • “Why you...” Shi Nuan blushed. Now she knew why her grandfather called her back. She would be an idiot if she didn't get the message by now. However, she didn't expect her grandfather to be in such a hurry. She only had a breakup, but that didn't mean she was unwanted. Also, of all the men he could have found for me, he just had to get Fu Chengyan.
  • She had just refused his advances yesterday, but her grandfather was already trying to matchmake her him today. I don't even know how he thinks about me! ”Don't take this the wrong way. My grandpa's just doing this for fun. He's bored, you see. So, don't take it too seriously.”
  • It's only a breakup. It's not like nobody wants me. Besides, I'm still young, so men will come in droves. I'm spoilt for choice. ”Don't you think it's heard to breathe this way, Mr. Fu?” Shi Nuan felt suffocated. She started pushing at his chest with both hands. “Can you at least be a bit reserved and keep some distance between us?”
