I Want A Lifetime With You

Shi Nuan stared at Fu Chengyan, stunned. She hadn’t expected this turn of events at all. As she gazed back and forth between Fu Chengyan and Song Zhenyan, the look in her eyes changed from shock to contempt.

Before this, she had wondered if Fu Chengyan was being a little unfilial towards Song Zhenyan by being so defiant towards her. Upon hearing about Song Zhenyan’s evil deeds, however, she no longer felt that way.

Fu Chengyan had seen his mother lace his father’s drink with drugs, dragging a completely innocent woman into her revenge plan.

Shi Nuan suddenly remembered something else— Fu Chengyan had once told her that he had a half-sister called Fu Ling who was born to a different woman. Shi Nuan wondered if that half-sister was the product of the tryst between Fu Sheng and that personal assistant.

“No, Yan! Listen to your mother! I had only done that because…”

“You did that because you’d wanted to find an excuse to divorce my father, didn’t you? Afterward, you would have probably found a way to destroy Uncle Heng’s marriage as well. After getting Aunt Ning to leave him, you would have married Uncle Heng, just like you’d wanted to all along.”

“I…”

Song Zhenyan staggered backward. She had kept that secret buried, in the bottom of her heart for so long. She had never expected that someone else would unearth it someday. To her consternation, Fu Chengyan had been the one to find out about it, and he now lay her intentions bare, for all to see.

“All this while, you had never gotten over the fact that my father had raped you, taking away your chance at happiness. Can you guess who was the one who had drugged him thirty-five years ago, forcing him upon you?” Fu Chengyan frowned. He refused to back down, despite seeing the look of distress on Song Zhenyan’s face. “I’ve already told you this before— you could’ve chosen to remain in the Song Residence, living out the rest of your life in peace and comfort. That would have been the best course of action for you. However, you’d chosen to return to the Fu family to stir up trouble for us again. I won’t stop you from doing that, but I’ll make you pay for everything that you’d done back then. I’m your biological son, and your blood flows through my veins. However, if you make a move to endanger my wife, I shall do the same to your beloved Song family!”

Fu Chengyan was giving her an ultimatum. “That’s all I have to say to you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Chengyan took Shi Nuan by the hand and left the room immediately. Shi Nuan could tell that he was in an awful mood— to the Fu family and Fu Chengyan himself, these matters concerned deep and ancient grudges, and bringing them up again would reopen old wounds.

Since he had exposed these secrets to the world today, Fu Chengyan must have made up his mind about his next course of action.

Others may not have known Fu Chengyan or understood him, but Shi Nuan knew this man like the back of her hand. He isn’t as vicious and emotionless as he seems— in actual fact… ”Yan!”

Fu Chengyan got into the car and helped Shi Nuan in putting on her seatbelt, with a rather neutral expression on his face. Just as he was about to start the car, Shi Nuan clasped his hand worriedly as she prodded, “You…”

Fu Chengyan glanced at her from the side and forced a smile onto his face. Gazing gently at her, he asked, “Did I scare you back in there?”

Shi Nuan shook her head. Suddenly, she felt her heart begin to ache a little, for this man. Fu Chengyan always looked so impenetrable and invincible, but Shi Nuan knew that it was just a front that he put up.

No matter how capable Fu Chengyan is, he is still human, and a normal man at that. Like everyone else, he longs for close relationships and concern, from the people around him. Upon hearing the conversation between him and Song Zhenyan just now, Shi Nuan could surmise that he had probably never experienced a mother’s love before.

She hadn’t expected Song Zhenyan to fall for Fu Heng either— after all, she had been married to Fu Sheng for such a long time. Because of her jealousy towards Ning Xin and Fu Heng’s relationship, as well as her own grudge against Fu Sheng, Song Zhenyan had launched her own plan of revenge, causing so much harm to everyone else.

“Then, about Fu Ling…”

“The relationship between the Fu family members has always been a little complicated. Other than the few half-siblings that I’ve already mentioned to you, the rest don’t actually exist. Don’t believe those rumors!” Fu Chengyan patted Ning Xin’s hand gently. “Fu Ling is the daughter of
