I Want A Lifetime With You

Fu Chengyan sighed involuntarily and pinched her nose. He remarked in a snarky tone, “You, little mistress, are too smart!” Shi Nuan grabbed his index finger and chided, “What did you call me? You are the mistress!”

Fu Chengyan glanced at her and shook his head. “You are my mistress!” he remarked and kissed her finger.

“Whatever. I am your mistress because I can’t possibly be your wife, can I?” Shi Nuan attempted to twist Fu Chengyan’s ear but was intercepted by him. He then used his palms to clasp hers tightly while he whispered, “You silly goose. I only have one wife, and that’s you.”

She huffed and said, “Don’t try to change the subject again!”

He sighed and wrapped his arms around her. “Let’s go up first. It has been such a long day and I miss you.”

Shi Nuan grinned and hugged his neck, signaling for him to bend down. After planting a big kiss on his forehead, she said, “You won’t feel tired anymore!”

Fu Chengyan gazed at her gently. “You are right. I’m no longer tired when I see your beautiful face,” he commented.

After Fu Chengyan finished bathing, Shi Nuan patted the empty seat next to her and uttered, “I’ll help you dry your hair.”

He sat down but didn’t let her dry his hair. “Zhou Zheng said that you went to Xinhuang today. Did something happen?” he inquired.

“What a big mouth he has!” Shi Nuan remarked. “Nothing much happened. I already knew she was going to react like that so I didn’t take it to heart. I just felt a bit sad that she treats me and Shen Qianan so poorly. If she didn’t like us, why did she give birth to us?” Shi Nuan was perplexed. She was being stubborn because she wanted to figure out the truth.

Fu Chengyan reached out and gripped her hand tightly. He questioned, “Do you want to know the reason for that?”

After seeing her nod, he warned, “However, the truth hurts. You still want to know?”

She continued nodding her head despite noticing that Fu Chengyan’s face was clouded over.

“You have a decent life now, even though you haven’t figured out the whole truth. So there is no need for you to know the truth, May.” he reasoned.

“I know that!” Shi Nuan sighed. “You must be wondering why I want to know. I’m not insistent, but since I have the chance to find out the truth, I want to take up that opportunity. Yan, I know you are worried that I will be hurt. But I’m a grown woman and I know what I am doing, so stop worrying about me!” she lamented. She walked towards Fu Chengyan and sat behind him. Massaging his shoulders, she continued, “I will have to face the truth one day. Although my life won’t be affected even if I don’t know the truth, have you thought about my mental state?”

“Alright, fine!” Fu Chengyan said. He patted her hands and said, “She went to visit Grandpa today.”

“She? Do you mean Shu Qing?” Shi Nuan was astonished and gasped, “Is that why Grandpa wanted you to see him?”

Fu Chengyan nodded and elaborated, “She wasn’t the only one to visit him. She went there with someone else.”
