I Want A Lifetime With You

Shi Nuan nodded. “I won’t say it, of course, but…” She was still a little worried. “What if Li Heng and Huan don’t get back together? Huan implied that she won’t stay here for long.”

“You don’t have to worry about this.” Fu Chengyan flashed her a smile and walked out of the study holding her hand. “Since Huan has returned, Li Heng won’t let her go so easily.” How could he let her go so easily after having waited for three years?

On the following day, Fu Chengyan had to go to work so Shi Nuan took Pei Huan to the hospital. As Ning Xin’s condition didn’t allow any more delays, Pei Huan went directly to Su Shaoqing. “Dr. Su!”

“Mrs. Li!” Seeing Pei Huan, Su Shaoqing flashed her an innocent grin as he moved a chair over. “Have a seat, Mrs. Li!”

Pei Huan glanced at Su Shaoqing. “Dr. Su, I have now divorced from Li Heng, so don’t call me Mrs. Li. You should just call me Pei Huan or Fu Jiazhen!”

Su Shaoqing squinted at Pei Huan. Instead of feeling embarrassed, he burst into laughter. “Oh well, it’s good that you dumped a man like Li Heng. You can easily find someone younger and richer than Li Heng anyway.” Su Shaoqing waved his hand nonchalantly. “I’ll stick to Pei Huan then. I feel awkward when I call you by your other name.”

“Okay!” Pei Huan was fine with it——it was just a name. She then added, “I came here today to ask you about my mom’s condition. I didn’t find it appropriate to ask too many questions yesterday.”

Su Shaoqing nodded and assumed a serious look again. “Wait a minute. I’ll call someone in!” Su Shaoqing got up and walked to the desk to make a phone call. “Dr. Li, please come to the office!”

After Su Shaoqing hung up the phone, he looked at Pei Huan. “Dr. Li is the attending doctor of Aunt Ning.”

“The same doctor as three years ago?”

Su Shaoqing gave a slight nod. “Aunt Ning’s health is no longer as good as before. It’s a relief that you can come back.”

“I want my mom to go through surgery as soon as possible.” This matter couldn’t be delayed anymore. Pei Huan felt guilty for Ning Xin as she did not know that so many things had happened to the latter during her three-year absence.

“Huan, we can’t rush things. Besides, we haven’t seen each other for three years. We aren’t clear on your current health condition, nor do we have a good idea of Aunt Ning’s health. I’m just worried that your aunt’s body will reject it!”

“How could it be? I thought three years ago—”

“You also said that it was three years ago. We can’t rush things. We still have to do some examinations and wait for the results before we can make the decision.”

As soon as Su Shaoqing finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. After he gave the person permission to come in, Dr. Li was seen rushing inside. “What can I do for you, Director?”

“Dr. Li, please have a seat. This is Ning Xin’s daughter.” Su Shaoqing pointed at Pei Huan.

Dr. Li looked at Pei Huan. “Hi, Ms. Pei, it’s been a while.”

“Hi, Dr. Li, as you’re my mom’s attending doctor, I’d like to know her condition!”

Ever since Pei Huan came out of Su Shaoqing’s office, she had been looking ghastly. She pinched the space between her eyebrows and checked the time before walking toward Ning Xin’s ward.
