I Want A Lifetime With You

“Are you going to let me continue like this, Ms. Shu?”

Shu Qing eyed the taxi driver briefly and apologized. After getting down from the taxi, she turned to Fu Yi impatiently. “What else is there to talk about? What truth?”

“There’s a café across the street. If you don’t mind, we can go there and have some coffee while we talk.”

“Alright.”

Shu Qing put on her sunglasses and crossed the road first, followed by Fu Yi.

“Alright. Just say what you have to say. What else I didn’t know about?”

Shu Qing thought Fu Yi would only utter some nonsense about her being an ungrateful wretch. Indeed, Fu Yi intended to tell her that, but not in the way she thought.

After the waiter served their coffees, Fu Yi turned to Shu Qing with a stern look. “I bet Ms. Shu must be wondering what truth I have to tell you when everything is so clear cut back then. You still remember how Mr. Su was never by your side when you needed him the most, am I right?”

“But do you know how desperate he was when he tried to find you everywhere on that fateful night? You did not listen to him and continued staying in contact with Shen Feng, even joining him for dinner with the producers. By the time he heard about it, he tried looking for you, only to find you looking all traumatized and delirious after the incident. Do you know how he almost went crazy at the sight and struggled to bring you to the hospital?”

Shu Qing snapped her head up suddenly. “What did you say?”

“What did I say? Who did you think sent you to the hospital that day? It was Mr. Su who sent you there. He even said that the most regretful thing he has ever done in his life is to bring you to the capital and let you have your way with your life. Do you know that Mr. Su has already negotiated a good drama for you and was about to sign it back then? But what were you doing then? You only know how to blame him for his incompetence to shoot you to stardom. You attended the dinner at the hotel without telling him, right?”

Fu Yi continued with a cold smirk. “Mr. Su has told me repeatedly that there were three things he regretted most in his life. The first one is bringing you out of Jiang City to the capital, while the second thing he regretted most is to leave you at the hospital and went off to take revenge on the rapists himself. Otherwise, how else do you think those rapists vanished without a trace in the capital?”

Shu Qing stared at Fu Yi in disbelief, but Fu Yi was far from done. “Mr. Su went to meet those bastards and took revenge on them, all for the sake of avenging you. Do you know why his heart was injured? That’s the injury he sustained when he got ambushed by one of them, who drove a dagger straight into his chest. Lucky for him, the dagger did not stab right into his heart, but he has to bear with this constant defect in his heart for life.”

“No, I don’t believe this!” Shu Qing stood up suddenly, her fingers trembling violently. “You’re lying, aren’t you?”

“Hah! Do I need to lie? What good does it do to me for lying to you?” Fu Yi eyed her icily. “Do you know how long Mr. Su was hospitalized after that? He was in a coma for four months! It took him four months before he regained his consciousness! And the first thing he did after waking up is to look for you. But where were you then? You were in Shen Feng’s villa chatting to him happily. He was greeted with the sight of you talking animatedly to Shen Feng while being pregnant!”

“No… this can’t be it… He said he already has a new girlfriend back then, so he broke up with me! He-”

“Mr. Su told you that?”
