I Want A Lifetime With You

“Do you really mean it?” Hope rekindled in Fu Jiaqi’s eyes. She couldn’t believe Lai Jingdong’s words. “Are you not bluffing?”

“You of all people should know that I never lie. I will definitely keep to my promise!” Lai Jingdong’s eyes were fixated on Fu Jiaqi. “You cannot change the situation you were born into, but you sure can alter the path of your destiny. I stopped loving you not because you no longer belong to the Fu family. I stopped loving you because you did too many things that I find unacceptable. Jiaqi, if you are willing to better yourself, I will learn to have you back in my life. I promise I will not bring up divorce ever again!”

“Are you for real?” Fu Jiaqi still couldn’t quite believe her ears until she saw Lai Jingdong nodding. She felt herself loosening up, but in the next instant, she seemed to remember something and wrapped her arms around her belly. “But…”

“But what?” Lai Jingdong cast a questioning gaze at Fu Jiaqi. He was confused as to what concerns Fu Jiaqi still had at this point in time, especially since she was in a dead-end now. “Do you still not trust me?”

“No! I trust you!” Fu Jiaqi shook her head violently. “I believe in everything you said. O-okay, I’ll tell you about what happened three years ago. To be honest, until today, I am still not sure what happened to Pei Huan. I remember someone calling me on the phone…” Fu Jiaqi gave Lai Jingdong the entire account of what she knew about the incident that happened three years ago.

In another room, Li Heng and Su Shaoqing were monitoring the two of them via the security camera. They were able to eavesdrop on the information Fu Jiaqi was sharing.

Su Shaoqing scoffed and patted Li Heng on his shoulder. “I didn’t think that a guy like Lai Jingdong would be willing to sacrifice his happiness for Pei Huan.”

Suddenly, before Su Shaoqing could finish his sentence, he felt a pressing killer intent directed at him. The next instant, Su Shaoqing ducked down as a fist came flying at his face. He took a step back and avoided Li Heng’s punch. “What the hell are you doing, Li Heng!” Su Shaoqing was confounded by Li Heng’s sudden outburst at him. What’s wrong with me suggesting that Lai Jingdong fancies Pei Huan a lot?

Li Heng narrowed his eyes and continued to throw a few more punches at Su Shaoqing. Each of his attacks seemed to carry his entire body weight. For the next few minutes, Su Shaoqing was busy dodging the incoming blows from Li Heng. Finally, Su Shaoqing tired himself out and raised both of his hands in defeat. “Alright, alright! I won’t say anything about Lai Jingdong and Pei Huan again! Pei Huan belongs to you and no one else!”

Only then Li Heng came to a rest. His fiery eyes met Su Shaoqing’s, and he said, “You are weaker now.”

“Of course! My hands are built to hold scalpels, not to fight you!” Su Shaoqing was never really interested in martial arts or anything that involved physical violence. I am a literal gentleman, okay?

Li Heng’s lips curled up into a crescent. He took the jacket hanging on the chair. “Since you’re the one who brought him here, you take care of him later when he’s done.”

“Hey, don’t go yet! You want me to settle the rest alone?” Su Shaoqing bawled but Li Heng was already gone.

“That rascal! He just likes to make my life difficult!” Yet, as much as Su Shaoqing didn’t want to confront the couple, he still went down to the darkroom a few moments later.

At this point, Lai Jingdong had already calmed Fu Jiaqi down. When he saw Su Shaoqing walking into the room, he asked, “Where’s Li Heng?”

“He left. If there’s anything important, just let me know.” Su Shaoqing simpered as his eyes fell onto Fu Jiaqi.
