I Want A Lifetime With You

Fu Chengyan reached out his hand and patted Li Heng who immediately came in.

Li Heng then found a seat and sat down. He greeted, “Mother.”

“Why don’t you call me Aunt Ning instead!” Ning Xin felt uncomfortable when she heard him address her as “Mother”. However, her upbringing prevented her from saying something rude to him. She added, “Since you managed to persuade Yan, I imagine it must be something really important. So, go ahead and tell me what is it that you wanted to discuss?”

Li Heng nodded as he received a cup of tea Shi Nuan had served him. With a slight nod, he greeted, “Aunt Ning!”

“I’m here to talk to you about Huan.”

When Ning Xin heard the name, her fingers twitched. She pursed her lips.

She glared at Li Heng with displeasure. “I remember your relationship with Huan ended three years ago when you divorced.”

“No, we didn’t divorce!” Li Heng replied abruptly. However, due to Ning Xin’s status, his tone was still relatively gentle. It did not contain his usual frostiness at all.

His words not only surprised Ning Xin, but even Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan were shocked, too.

Li Heng pursed his lips and put down his tea cup. “The truth is that we never did divorce.”

“That’s impossible. When she left… she…” Ning Xin’s face was pale as a sheet as she likely recalled Pei Huan’s depressed look. She immediately took a deep breath and said, “Even if you didn’t divorce her, she has already left for three years. The fact that both of you have been living separately is enough reason for her to file for a divorce. Besides, I’m sure you’re well aware of what happened then. Li Heng, since Huan chose to leave, it means she is unwilling to go back to the past. She has gotten over it; why can’t you let go, too?”

“How can I let go?” Li Heng replied softly as his tone carried with it his pain. He frowned as he looked at Ning Xin and said, “How can I let go of Huan?”

“This is your personal matter. You are a ruthless and decisive man in the business world, so why come to an old lady like me for relationship advice?” Ning Xin said, “No matter what you want to discuss with me today, I cannot help you if it relates to Huan. Huan is…” Ning Xin looked towards Fu Chengyan, who nodded immediately and gestured Shi Nuan to get up. “May needs to go through the accounts with her friend. I’ll go and help them, too. Li Heng, you stay and chat with Aunt Ning.”

Fu Chengyan shot Li Heng a glare as a warning before leaving with Shi Nuan in tow.

Shi Nuan was still worried and turned to look back. She said in a concerned tone, “Why did you drag me out, too? Aunt Ning is obviously not going to forgive Li Heng. Li Heng is… Besides, Aunt Ning isn’t in great health.”

“If we stayed there, it would be awkward for Li Heng to say what he wanted. Let’s go and take a walk!”

Chengyan didn’t feel that their departure was a bad thing as he knew Ning Xin very well. He was well aware that she was someone who is sensible. Nothing untoward would happen. While Li Heng is ruthless,

Nuan could do other than nod. “Let’s go chat

the two people in the room felt more relaxed. Li Heng poured a cup of tea for Ning Xin and said, “There was a misunderstanding between Huan and me.
