I Want A Lifetime With You

“Damn it, how am I supposed to know about her return? Hold on, were you unable to make it to the Shi residence yesterday because you went to meet Shen Qianan? Holy cow, don’t tell me you still have feelings for…”

“I went back to Fu Residence because the butler gave me a call telling me my grandfather was dying.” Fu Chengyan ended his sentence with a cold snort and an icy glint in his eyes.

Su Shaoqing looked dumbfounded. “Something doesn’t add up. Didn’t your grandfather think Shen Qianan was not good enough for you back then? I can still remember how much he used to resent her and that look on his face when he couldn’t wait to kill her to vent his anger! Why is he suddenly taking her side now? Is he resorting to the childish trick of using Shen Qianan as his pawn to destroy Nuan?”

Su Shaoqing stroke his jaw contemplatively. When he saw the ominous look on Fu Chengyan’s face, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes when he realized his speculation was right. “I can’t believe he’s really doing such a thing! Your grandfather is certainly very… intriguing.”

“He’s so insistent on breaking Nuan and you apart though he hates Shen Qianan too. I’m shocked that he still cares to punish you like that at his age.” While condemning Fu Zhengyun, Su Shaoqing was observing Fu Chengyan’s expression too. “Anyway, it’s only a matter of time before Nuan finds out about Shen Qianan. The point is, they literally look the…”

“I’m very sure I know which one I love.” Fu Chengyan frowned at Su Shaoqing without him realizing it, making Su Shaoqing shudder in fear. “Why are you shooting daggers at me? It’s not like I’m accusing you of anything. Look, you know yourself well, but what about the rest of the people?

There’s no way they’ll know what is on your mind. To make matters worse, you really did meet Shen Qianan before marrying Nuan. That’s a fact. Anyone is bound to get the wrong idea, let alone Nuan.”

Su Shaoqing shook his head and sighed. “What are you planning to do about it now?”

“I didn’t meet her first!” Holding the knife, Fu Chengyan emphasized sternly with his lips pursed. “I didn’t.”

“Uhm… What do you mean?” Su Shaoqing thought he had heard him wrongly. At the same time, he was intimidated by the grim expression on Fu Chengyan’s face as well as the knife in his tight grip. It seemed highly likely that the latter would slaughter anyone who offended him with that knife he was currently holding.

Touching his neck subconsciously, Su Shaoqing decided to take a few steps back to maintain some distance from him.

Meanwhile, Fu Chengyan fixed an icy gaze on Su Shaoqing, putting emphasis on each and every word he was about to say. “I didn’t meet Shen Qianan first. I met May before her!”

This time, Su Shaoqing got his message loud and clear. He was stupefied for a few seconds before exclaiming, “Are you saying that you actually knew Nuan first? Boy, you really are great at keeping secrets! Since you met Nuan first, why did you date Shen Qianan instead of her then?”

Su Shaoqing was deterred from continuing his sentence by Fu Chengyan’s lethal stare. “Who told you I even dated her before?”

Huh?

“Did you not?” Su Shaoqing tried to recall what had taken place over the past few years. Indeed, he had often seen Shen Qianan appearing together with Fu Chengyan at various places, but Fu Chengyan had never introduced her as his girlfriend or fiancée.

“Wait a minute. Does it mean you’ve never had feelings for Shen Qianan?” That piece of information was too shocking that Su Shaoqing needed some time to process it. Anyone who did not know Fu Chengyan well enough would assume the man was lying. But as his long-time buddy, Su Shaoqing knew that Fu Chengyan couldn’t be more serious about it, judging from his flinty face.

Su Shaoqing fell silent for a short while to ponder over everything. “Seems like everybody has been having this misunderstanding about you all along. But then again, why did you let Shen Qianan shadow you wherever you went at that time if you had no feelings for her at all?”

Before leaving the kitchen, he reminded Fu Chengyan, “Here’s a tip for you, bro – you should act fast and decisive when it comes to relationships.
