I Want A Lifetime With You

“By the way, has Shaoqing been going out with someone lately?” Shi Nuan turned to look at Fu Chengyan with newfound curiosity in her eyes. She pushed his hands away from her temples and asked after a short beat, “I saw Shaoqing with a lady outside the shopping center just now. You know what, he actually forced a kiss on that lady!”

“He forced a kiss on a lady?” Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes which were tinged with a trace of doubt. “You’re sure you saw him doing that?”

“I’m very sure!” Shi Nuan nodded. “I saw him when Shen Shixiu and I were leaving the shopping center. That lady was a badass one! She slapped him before marching away.”

“Eh?” Fu Chengyan raised his brows, intrigued by the matter. “Did you manage to see the lady’s face?”

When Shi Nuan heard his question, she couldn’t help but sigh. “I’m dying to know who that lady was because I didn’t get to see her face. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked you about her.” Shi Nuan sat upright and wrapped her hands around his arm instead. After adjusting her posture, she added, “The way Su Shaoqing reacted after getting slapped was very bizarre too. He actually looked quite pleased to be slapped!”

“Ha!” Fu Chengyan chuckled. “I’ve got it!”

“What do you know about it?” Shi Nuan couldn’t help but raise her brows at him. “Do you know who that lady is? Is she his crush? That doesn’t seem like it. I’ve known Shaoqing for around six months, but I’ve never heard him talking about dating any woman before,” Shi Nuan commented, feeling doubtful.

It was hard to think of that lady just now as the woman Su Shaoqing was pursuing.

Yet, Fu Chengyan curled his lips into a smile as he answered her, “That lady is his nemesis. She’s back to haunt him now!”

“His nemesis?” Shi Nuan blinked her eyes in confusion. “Do you mean that that lady is his ex-girlfriend?”

“No. Do you remember I once told you about my other younger sister?” Fu Chengyan reached out to run his fingers through her tousled hair.

Shi Nuan felt enlightened immediately. With her eyes widened in consternation, she asked, “Do you mean Ling? Fu Ling?”

Fu Chengyan had told her about his two younger sisters before. One of them was his Uncle Heng’s daughter, Pei Huan, and the other was his half-sister, Fu Ling. However, Shi Nuan had never met Fu Ling before, and Fu Chengyan did not tell her where she had gone at that time. “Does Shaoqing have a crush on Fu Ling?”

“Maybe?” Fu Chengyan sighed. “When Ling was little, she spent a lot of time with Shaoqing. She was very dependent on him.” Fu Chengyan looked lost in reminiscence the more he talked about his sister. “Ling didn’t live with me at the Fu Residence at that time, but that didn’t affect how she loved spending time with Shaoqing. However, something happened later on, and that made their relationship rather complicated.”

Shi Nuan’s heart sank a little. “Do you mean Fu Ling has feelings for Shaoqing, but that isn’t reciprocal?” After some contemplation, she thought that information did not match the scene she witnessed at the shopping center just now. “But, I think Shaoqing has feelings for her, judging from their interaction just now…”
