I Want A Lifetime With You

Chapter 557 We Will Not Accept Her

Lin Shuqin froze as he could not believe that her own son would say something like that. “But, her background-”

“I wish to date her not because of her background, but because I love her. It doesn’t matter who she is; I just want to be with her. Mother, I’m hoping you’ll support me!” It was Su Shaoqing’s first time speaking to Lin Shuqin with a tone like this. Lin Shuqin still could not accept it. “Shaoqing-”

“Mother, it’s getting late. You should get some rest.” Ultimately, their conversation came to an abrupt end. Su Shaoqing didn’t mind if Lin Shuqin agreed or disagreed because no one could change his mind. No one, not even his biological mother.

On the other hand, Fu Ling wanted to ask about the shower in the bathroom with Su Shaoqing. She could not get the shower to work no matter how many times she tried.

She was on her way to the study and accidentally heard Su Shaoqing’s conversation with Lin Shuqin. Fu Ling was about to call out to him but stopped when she realized they were arguing. She then quickly returned to Su Shaoqing’s room.

She shut the door while the conversation replayed in her head. Fu Ling only smiled, and it was not a pleasant one. Her head dropped, and her fingers shivered. She sighed and went back into the bathroom after a while.

Fu Ling expected that she would not be able to fall asleep. In reality, she had been busy lately and was tired. After blowing her hair dry, she slept soundly on the bed.

It was late in the night when the bedroom door was pushed open. Su Shaoqing came in as his gaze fell on Fu Ling’s face. Even though it was dark, he could still see her face at a glance.

Since he had previously been trained in the army, his vision was exceptionally keen, as was his night vision. He approached Fu Ling and sat on the edge of the bed as he looked at Fu Ling’s sleeping face.

He reached out his hand, wanting to caress her. Just when his hand was near her cheek, he hesitated. In the darkness, he stared at Fu Ling as a feeling of nostalgia struck him. It was as if time had frozen in place.

Fu Ling had no idea Su Shaoqing had entered the room and was watching her sleep, nor did she realize he had been sitting on the bed the whole night.

When Fu Ling awoke the next morning, she could smell a familiar scent in the air but had no idea what it was. She then took a whiff of the blanket, and it had the same smell.

She frowned deeply but did nothing else. She quickly went to wash up and changed into the clothes Su Shaoqing had given her the day before.

To be honest, Lin Shuqin’s body was still in good shape despite her getting old. Fu Ling’s body was similar to Lin Shuqin’s, with the exception that Fu Ling was slightly taller.

Su Shaoqing had given her a cheongsam. Fu Ling, who came from a prestigious scholar family, adored cheongsam, especially custom-made ones. Knowing that, Su Shaoqing had asked Lin Shuqin to pick some of her cheongsams for Fu Ling. Despite her reluctance, Lin Shuqin chose two decent cheongsams that would look excellent on Fu Ling.
