I Want A Lifetime With You

“I…”

“Enough. Why are you so chatty when we have a guest? Eat your meal!” Shi Yunsheng was the head of the family, so he spoke up to cut Jiang Yu off and shot her a glare.

Jiang Yu might have something to say, but because of Shi Yunsheng she dared not continue. She could only lower her head and put those thoughts away. However, in her heart, she was inwardly seething at Shi Nuan’s ignorance.

Everyone was restless during dinner. After that, Shi Yunsheng invited Su Shaoqing to play chess with him. Because Shi Nuan didn’t want to play happy family with the others, she followed them to Shi Yunsheng’s room.

The butler, Mr. Yang, had prepared Shi Yunsheng’s favorite tea leaves. Shi Nuan brewed the tea at one side while Shi Yunsheng started playing chess with Su Shaoqing.

To be honest, Su Shaoqing was good at chess. Shi Nuan’s impression of Su Shaoqing was that he was a rich playboy. She never knew he could stay silent for such a long time.

Shi Yunsheng was a good chess player as well. Although Fu Chengyan had defeated him previously, he was confident of himself. But today, he lost to Su Shaoqing, and he was impressed with the young man. “Looks like I made a mistake. Mr. Su, you’re a skilled chess player.”

Su Shaoqing’s eyes were smiling as he pinched the bridge of his nose like he had forced to do so. “Old Mr. Shi, actually, my chess skills are trained by Chengyan. If the opportunity arises, you can play chess with him next time.”

“Mr. Su, you have no idea how much my Granddad likes to play chess. Of course he had played with Yan,” Shi Nuan brought over the tea she had been warming up with a smile. “Granddad, you must’ve met your match.”

“You!” Shi Yunsheng couldn’t help but shake his head. He sniffed at the tea and a flash of appreciation appeared in his eyes. “Not bad!”

Shi Nuan replied with a smile and handed the other cup of tea to Su Shaoqing. “Granddad, have fun with Mr. Su. I need to go to the bathroom. I will be right back!”

The woman stood up and left Shi Yunsheng’s room. After she had gone to the bathroom and was on the way back, she happened to pass by the study. The door was open, and the light was on. When Shi Nuan walked closer to the door, she could hear someone talking.

“Look at how arrogant Shi Nuan is! Does she think she could boss everyone around with Su Bancheng’s help? She thinks she could get rid of the Shi family. Doesn’t she remember who introduced her to that man?”

Jiang Yu’s enraged voice sounded from the study. She was obviously full of hatred. Shi Nuan never imagined that one day she would be eavesdropping on her parents.

She knew her mother didn’t like her, but had never thought her hatred was so intense.

Lower your voice. What

It was a tremendous relief for both of them. “Fine, it’s just a cat. Remember, don’t mention this ever again. Don’t be partial just to vent your anger.
