I Want A Lifetime With You

Shi Nuan was stunned by Fu Chengyan’s sudden question. She glanced at him in suspicion and blinked twice. His solemn question surprised her, and the hand that was smoothing out his forehead stilled. She had never seen Fu Chengyan act this cautious and hesitant before.

Shi Nuan pursed her lips and blinked before staring at Fu Chengyan seriously. “What do you want me to ask? Did you do something behind my back? Something against my wishes?”

Fu Chengyan seemed conflicted, so Shi Nuan was somewhat startled. She sat up and asked in a sober tone, “Really?”

“Listen, this—”

“Wait,” Shi Nuan lifted her hand to stop Fu Chengyan. She contemplated the possibilities before saying, “Don’t say anything and let me think. This is the first time I’ve ever seen you acting like this. Actually, no matter what you did, as long as you didn’t betray me, I won’t mind. Okay, you can go on now.”

Fu Chengyan’s lips thinned as he met Shi Nuan’s gaze. Shi Nuan stared at Fu Chengyan. Something was obviously wrong, but she couldn’t tell what it was. Gradually, her expression turned solemn. “Are you not going to tell me?”

“Didn’t you read the news today?”

News?

Shi Nuan was taken aback as she turned to look at to the newspapers and her phone. “You know well that I normally read the financial section only. Hmm…” Shi Nuan unlocked her phone and went straight to the trending section. Immediately, news regarding Fu Chengyan and Shi Wei’s scandal appeared on the screen.

Shi Nuan stared at Fu Chengyan in shock. Biting her lip, she raised her head and asked in an uncertain tone, “You mean this?” She waved her phone at Fu Chengyan.

When she noticed Fu Chengyan’s grave expression, everything became clear. The man was the one behind this. Shi Nuan was smart. She immediately guessed why Fu Chengyan did this.

The woman arched her brows and tossed her phone aside, pretending to be vexed. “I’m mad. This will lead to serious consequences. Make sure you come out with a plausible explanation.”

Shi Nuan glowered at Fu Chengyan, as if she was warning him that she wouldn’t leave the matter unsettled.

Fu Chengyan remained silent as they stared at each other. Shi Nuan could the air between them thicken as tension arose. In the end, she pretended to cough twice and relented. “Fine, I’m not mad. Why should I be mad? I don’t believe a word they say. I know you are not interested in Shi Nuan. After all, she isn’t as great as me, and she’s already married. You won’t be interested in a married woman, right? I know I am the most important person in your heart.”
