I Want A Lifetime With You

“Is that too much to ask for?” Shi Nuan mumbled under her breath and seemed to be seriously pondering over it. Then, she looked at Fu Chengyan and asked, “Darling, am I being too much to ask you for a diamond?”

“Not at all!” Fu Chengyan reached out and brushed aside the loose strands of hair on Shi Nuan’s forehead. “You can have any kind of diamonds you want!” Fu Chengyan replied affectionately, going along with his wife’s demands.

Shen Qianan’s expression changed as she said, “I used to be Yan’s fiancée after all. Isn’t Ms. Shi going a little overboard now?”

“Hehe, I’ve already said just now that I don’t lack anything and will not covet anything that belongs to others. Even though I am not exceptionally capable, I am still apt at protecting my properties. I won’t be going after things that belong to others, but if anyone has their eyes on what’s mine, I won’t go easy on them. What are your thoughts on this, Ms. Shen?”

“You… “

“It’s nice to be sentimental, but no one can accurately predict events that will unfold. Change is the only constant. Sometimes, we think we’re sure that something would last forever, but that’s just because it’s not time yet. When the time comes, we may then realize that there’s no such thing as forever. That’s why it’s most important for us to cherish the present.”

Shi Nuan slid her hand into Fu Chengyan’s hand and said, “This man is mine now. If you’re still not convinced, Ms. Shen, let’s just wait and see then!” After she finished speaking, she opened Fu Chengyan’s car door and pushed him in before turning around and looking at Shen Qianan. “I got my looks from my parents and not you. Ms. Shen, you should really think about your words just now. If Yan married me because of my looks, you wouldn’t have been his past tense.”

Shi Nuan got into the car after that. She put on her seat belt and shut the door immediately, not giving Shen Qianan any chance to reply. Her execution was smooth without missing a single beat.

With one hand supporting the left side of his face, Fu Chengyan looked at Shi Nuan with interest.

Shi Nuan halted her actions and eyed the man suspiciously. “Why are you looking at me like that? Is your heart aching from the way I spoke to her just now?”

Fu Chengyan had an amused glint in his eye and smiled broadly as he replied, “Why would my heart be aching?” The man had never known that his wife had such a silver tongue. Her domineering aura had completely knocked Shen Qianan out earlier on.

Shi Nuan managed to relax a little after hearing what the man said. When she saw that Fu Chengyan had looked away and was driving past Shen Qianan, she appeared to be deep in thought before asking, “Regarding Shen Qianan… What are your feelings toward her?”

Fu Chengyan cocked his head to the side and looked at Shi Nuan again. “What do you think?”

Shi Nuan shook her head and answered, “I don’t know and I can’t tell. But like what I told you previously, if there’s something that you’re intentionally keeping from me, then keep it from me forever.”

Fu Chengyan reached for Shi Nuan’s hand and gave it a light squeeze. “It’s not the right time to tell you some things yet.”

“Then when’s the right time?” Shi Nuan held Fu Chengyan’s hand and continued, “You should know that I’m just an ordinary woman. There are certain things that are inflexible to me and I’m very serious about them. Even I myself don’t know what I would do if I’m triggered.”

Shi Nuan had tried not to mind at first, but Shen Qianan kept pushing it. She wasn’t someone who would allow herself to be taken advantage of.
