I Want a Lifetime with You
Chapter 516 The Shareholders Meeting

Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 516

After Shi Yunsheng's sudden death, Shi Nuan and Shi Yu were the biggest beneficiaries of Huancheng according to Shi Yunsheng's will. Before that, Shi Yunsheng had entrusted a lawyer, Zhang Quan, to do equity certificates on behalf of Shi Nuan and

Shi Yu, evidencing their ownership of Huancheng's equity. Then, not long after that was Huancheng's shareholders' meeting.

Huancheng's employees knew nothing about Shi Yunsheng's decision at that moment. It just so happened that that day was also the company's shareholders' meeting. Meanwhile, Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu got to know this information a day before the meeting.

According to Zhang Quan, Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu had to be present on that day.

Meanwhile, Shen Shixiu's equity ownership changes had nothing to do with Zhang Quan. Therefore, Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu had to deal with this issue.

Fu Chengyan was occupied with work and did not attend the meeting. However, he had instructed Zhou Zheng to follow and take care of Shi Nuan. Fu Chengyan was not worried about it because of Zhou Zheng's accompaniment. Also, he was not perturbed that Shi Nuan would be at a disadvantage with Shen Shixiu by her side.

Shi Nuan had slept early lately but got up late because of her pregnancy. However, she woke up earlier than usual as she had to attend a shareholders' meeting later that day. For that, Zhou Zheng was already waiting downstairs, but he could not urge his employer and the employer's wife. Hence, he could only sit straight under the watchful eye of Fu Zhengyun.

Fu Zhengyun knew Zhou Zheng for sure. Noticing that Fu Chengyan's key aide was always at Shi Nuan's disposal, Fu Zhengyun realized that Shi Nuan was important to Fu Chengyan. Although Fu Zhengyun no longer objected to Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan being together, he still did not want to see Fu Chengyan dote on Shi Nuan too much. He rubbed his temples as a pang of pain hit his head when he thought of this. Why is he so devoted as if he is his wife's slave?

Compared to the mood upstairs, the atmosphere downstairs was gloomy and tense.

Shi Nuan's head bobbed about when she brushed her teeth with her eyes closed. Standing aside, Fu Chengyan looked at her worriedly and reached out his hand to support Shi Nuan. He was troubled by the thought that she might fall head on to the sink while brushing her teeth.

Then, he reached out his hand and supported her head before saying, "Are you that tired? Why don't you stay home and not go to the meeting today?" "No!" Shi Nuan shook her head and rejected his suggestion without a second thought. At that instant, she opened her eyes and continued, "I'm the biggest shareholder of Huancheng now, so I must attend the shareholders' meeting today. It's inappropriate fo me to be absent. Plus, Huancheng is Granddad's blood, sweat, and tears. I can't bear to see his efforts go down the drain."

"All right. You should be more careful then. Oh, well. Why don't you call Zhang Quan and ask him to postpone the meeting to later in the afternoon?" Fu Chengyan suggested helplessly. "Hmm, it's fine. I think they will be dissatisfied with the sudden change of schedule.

Well, I believe they already dislike me now anyway." Shi Nuan shook her head and continued, "It's okay. I'm not a kid anymore, and I can deal with it by myself. Moreover, haven't you already asked Zhou Zheng to come with me?"

Shi Nuan spoke inaudibly while brushing her teeth. After her voice fell, she rinsed her mouth and spat out the water from her mouth. While there were some foam bubbles at the corner of her mouth, she turned around and glanced at Fu Chengyan.

Seeing this, Fu Chengyan froze at that moment. Then, he reached out his hand and used his rough finger to rub the corner of her mouth, wiping away the bubbles. Helpless, he said dotingly, "All right. Clean your face now. You're running late."

"Okay!"

After gargling her mouth, Shi Nuan grabbed a towel and cleaned her face. Fu Chengyan had already wetted the towel before passing it to her.

Shi Nuan grinned and prodded Fu Chengyan in his chin with her head. "I love you so much, Yan!"

Fu Chengyan smiled and had a few more intimate moments with Shi Nuan before going downstairs with her hand in his.

Zhou Zheng had already waited for them downstairs for more than an hour. He kept eyeing his watch, wondering if they had already woken up or not. At that moment, he heard the noise of the footsteps ringing out from upstairs. Then, he stood upright and greeted, "Good morning, Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu!"

Fu Chengyan nodded and said, "I'll leave May to you. You can settle the company work later, and ask me if you're unsure about anything." Despite this, he trusted that Zhou Zheng was a capable man. He was only comforting Shi Nuan and trying to ease her nervousness.

In reality, Shi Nuan was quite anxious too. After hearing Fu Chengyan's words, she felt more at ease. Later, she heard him saying, "Will Shen Shixiu attend the meeting today too?"

Startled, Shi Nuan nodded in response. "I think so. Granddad has left some shares for him. Although he said he doesn't want them, he still needs to join the meeting as he's now one of the shareholders of Huancheng."

Fu Chengyan nodded in agreement. "All right. Don't worry too much since he'll be there." "Yeah." Shi Nuan pursed her lips and continued, "Hmm, I think you're more worried than

I am." After finishing her sentence, she stood on tiptoes and planted a kiss on Fu Chengyan's cheek. "All right! I'll be leaving now."

"Okay." Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhou Zheng before saying, "Take care of Mrs. Fu."

"Yes, sure."

"Wait a minute!" Fu Zhengyun's voice rang out from the door of the kitchen. After that, Fu Zhengyun instructed the chef to bring out some snacks and said, "Alas! How can you disregard the baby in your belly? You're pregnant, so you must have breakfast first.

Quick, give her the food so that she can eat it on the way there."

Although Fu Zhengyun sounded stern and angry, Shi Nuan knew he cared for her. Thinking of this, she beamed and responded sweetly, "Thank you, Grandpa. You know best."

Fu Zhengyun harrumphed and said in annoyance, "You've got everything in your hand already, haven't you? Huancheng is nothing compared to a subsidiary company under Shengyuan Group. Its value is not even worth your effort! Why do they want to trouble you by asking you to go personally?"

It seemed to Fu Zhengyun that it was pointless for Shi Nuan to attend the meeting.

"I'll be back soon, Grandpa. I'll come home later.”

"All right. Go ahead then."

Shi Nuan made her way out after she bade goodbye to Fu Zhengyun.

Zhou Zheng was the chauffeur, and Shi Nuan sat in the back seat. After witnessing the scene earlier in the house, Zhou Zheng could not help but heave a long sigh and exclaim, "You're blessed, Mrs. Fu!" Shi Nuan smiled. "Yeah, you're right."

She shared the same feeling as he did. "Do you want to have some, Zhou Zheng?"

"No, it's fine, Mrs. Fu. I've already eaten. Enjoy your breakfast."

"Okay." Shi Nuan nodded and savored her food.

Ever since Shi Nuan was pregnant, it was not surprising that her appetite had increased much. After all, she had to feed her two babies too. However, it startled Zhou Zheng to see that she ate a lot since she did not have any morning sickness symptoms.

After finishing her food, Shi Nuan could not help but burp involuntarily. Seeing this, Zhou Zheng immediately handed a glass of soy milk to her and said, "Here you go, Mrs.

Fu."

Shi Nuan took the glass and said, "Thank you." Her phone rang after she took a sip of the soy milk. It was a call from Shen Shixiu.

Recalling that Shen Shixiu would be there in the meeting, Shi Nuan picked up the call.

"Hi."

After knowing that Shen Shixiu was also Shi Yu, Shi Nuan felt there was a slight change in their relationship. For that, she did not know how to address Shen Shixiu. Hence, she avoided calling his name.

"It's me, Nuan!"

Shen Shixiu's words put Shi Nuan into a light trance. He sounds calm and unperturbed by what had happened. It seems like I'm the one who's overthinking the situation. "Yeah, anything?"

"You can just call me Shixiu, Nuan." Shen Shixiu knew that Shi Nuan still felt uneasy about his new identity. He continued, "The Shi family has got nothing to do with me, anyway. So, you don't need to worry about this."

Shi Nuan clicked her tongue. It's not as easy as he said. Well, since Shen Shixiu had already decided, I'll just do as he says. Then, she called out, "Shixiu!"

Shen Shixiu smiled and said, "You and Qianan are sisters, so you can call me that." Shi Nuan pursed her lips and did not know what to say.

Although Shen Qianan was a child from the Shen family, she was Shen Shixiu's sister for many years. Therefore, it was appropriate for Shen Qianan to address him intimately. Well, who am I to Shen Shixiu, though? At that moment, she felt that it was an intricate network of relationships that was very confusing.

"All right, Shixiu."

"I'll go to Huancheng today. What about you?"

"Yes, I'm on the way." While she was speaking, she glanced at Zhou Zheng subconsciously. Sensing her gaze, he replied, "We'll be at Huancheng in about half an hour, Mrs. Fu."

Shi Nuan nodded and heard Zhou Zheng continue, "You won't be late for the meeting."

"Okay." Shi Nuan nodded and asked, "Where are you now, Shixiu?"

"Oh, me? I'll be there around half an hour too." Shen Shixiu said with a smile, "Well if that's the case, see you at Huancheng!"

Shen Shixiu hung up the phone and intently fixed his gaze at the car not far from him.

Then, he pointed at it. Seeing this, Jiang Zhan was confused by Shen Shixiu's behavior.

Why does Mr. Shen want to do this unnecessary action? He's already at the Fu residence's door. Jiang Zhan could only muse to himself, of course. He did not dare to say that in front of Shen Shixiu. Shen Shixiu lowered his eyes and looked at the share transfer agreement beside him. At that moment, he fell into deep thought.

"Are all the shareholders of Huancheng going to be there for the meeting today?" Shen Shixiu asked.

Jiang Zhan straightened his body upon hearing Shen Shixiu's question. "Yes, Mr. Shen. The shareholders are interested to know who the main shareholder of the company is. At the same time, they seem to have some objections against it. Therefore, they will be there to replace out more insider info. Most of them have picked sides with Shi Jingzheng, and some remain calm and unmoved by the situation. Of course, those who are sitting on the fence are looking for the best opportunity. To be honest, Huancheng is nothing but a shell company. I don't think you need to involve yourself in these troubled waters." Jiang Zhan thought there was no need for Shen Shixiu to interfere in this matter.

The only explanation Shen Shixiu wanted to do that was for the sake of Shi Nuan.

The duration Jiang Zhan had worked for Shen Shixiu was not very long, but it was not too short either. Jiang Zhan had never seen Shen Shixiu put effort into any trivial or useless matters before. Moreover, even the person from Sheen City could not move and attract Shen Shixiu too.

Shen Shixiu raised his head and stared at Jiang Zhan sagaciously upon hearing the latter's question. Sensing that, he could not help but shiver in fear. I guess I've crossed the line. Thinking of the possibility, Jiang Zhan ended the conversation.

Shen Shixiu finally reached half an hour later. He was punctual.

After Shi Nuan reached, she saw Shen Shixiu's car pull over nearby. Shen Shixiu pushed open the car door and noticed Shi Nuan's car at that instant. Then, he strode toward her. Shi Nuan then lowered the window and opened the vehicle door after seeing Shen Shixiu walking toward her. "Hi, Shixiu!"

"Hey, Nuan!" Shen Shixiu nodded and looked at Shi Nuan dotingly. After a while, he averted his eyes and glanced at Zhou Zheng. "Hi, Mr. Zhou."

"Oh, you're here, Mr. Shen." Zhou Zheng was familiar with Shen Shixiu. After all, he had investigated the latter before. However, he was guarded against Shen Shixiu again after noticing how gentle and warm the latter looked at Shi Nuan.

Shen Shixiu smiled and gazed meaningfully at Shi Nuan before saying, "Yeah.”
