I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 120

Time was passing so quickly that, in a blink of an eye, it was already the end of the month. Both the Shi family and the Fu family had been actively engaged in the preparations for Fu Xicheng and Shi Wei’s wedding.

Meanwhile, Shi Wei had also been at Xinhuang for a period of time. She had started with the promotional activities of her upcoming movie, and had also received news that the crew would start filming in the middle of next month.

Since their wedding was to be held on the third of next month, Shi Wei had taken time off to go for gown-fitting and make other preparations. However, as compared to Shi Wei, Fu Xicheng had been holding a passive stance throughout the wedding preparations so far.

His engagement to Shi Wei happened too suddenly. Adding on to the fact that Fu Xicheng had yet to completely get over Shi Nuan, the man was very reluctant to proceed with the marriage. This was even more so after he got to know that Shi Nuan had Shi Yunsheng’s shares.

Therefore, Fu Xicheng had been using work as an excuse to reject Shi Wei’s multiple requests for him to accompany her to the gown-fitting sessions, causing the woman to feel very frustrated.

She had opined that the reason Fu Xicheng was acting this way was because of Shi Nuan, which made Shi Wei dislike her even more.

Shi Wei went for her gown-fitting session accompanied by her good friends, Anna and Su Su. Anna saw that Shi Wei was in a bad mood and inquired about the reason. After being aware of the thoughts that Fu Xicheng was harboring, her temper sparked too. “What does Shi Nuan want? Why is her presence still lingering?”

“Anna, you can’t say that. After all, Nuan is still mad at me because of my relationship with Xicheng.” Shi Wei let out a sigh and continued trying on the gowns listlessly. Although she said that it was not Nuan’s fault, her expression betrayed her.

Anna had a straightforward personality. She had been bearing a grudge against Shi Nuan since a long time ago. During their schooling days, Shi Nuan was the most popular girl in class due to her good looks and excellent grades. She was even the reason most guys joined their course.

Anna was confident of her own looks and wondered if those boys were actually blind, to have ignored her group, and went after Shi Nuan instead.

“How can she be mad at you? How is this your fault? I think you make a good pair with Fu Xicheng. Besides, they were not even married. It’s perfectly normal for you and Fu Xicheng to get married now.” Anna looked towards Su Su as she spoke, and asked, “Why are you not saying anything?”

Su Su shook her head and replied, “I was just thinking if Shi Nuan would turn up at our class gathering tomorrow.”

“Class gathering?” An unfathomable glint flashed across Anna’s eyes as she looked at Shi Wei.

Shi Wei raised her brows when she saw that sly look in Anna’s eyes. “Anna, what are you thinking of doing?” She asked.

“What do you mean what I’m thinking of doing? Tomorrow is our class gathering, but I almost forgot that Shi Nuan was our good friend in school!” Anna sneered and continued, “Wei, I’m not sure if you know, during that one year while you were overseas filming, Shi Nuan behaved so arrogantly in school!”

Anna let out a cold snort and tugged on Shi Wei’s hand. “Don’t worry, since Shi Nuan is so mean to you, we shall let her have a taste of her own medicine tomorrow!” She said.

“Anna, don’t act rashly. No matter what, Nuan is still my younger sister. Although our relationship has soured, I’m still her elder sister!” Shi Wei pulled out of Anna’s grip and held her hand instead. An bright glint flashed across Shi Wei’s eyes, as her lips curled up.

She was too familiar with Anna’s character. The more she was not allowed to do something; the more she would rebel against it.

Also, Anna had indeed loathed Shi Nuan when they were in school. It all started when a guy whom Anna liked, rejected her confession and pursued Shi Nuan instead. That incident remained a knot in her heart.

“You treat her like a sister, but has she ever treated you like one? That’s enough, Wei. I know you are worried about her, but you should stay out of this. Anyway, I have decided that no matter what, I’m going to teach Shi Nuan a lesson. Otherwise, she would just grow increasingly outrageous and keep taking advantage of you.”

Shi Wei narrowed her eyes and secretly gloated. However, she maintained a worried expression as she looked at Su Su.

Su Su shook her head and said, “Wei, just keep out of this. It’s a feud between Anna and Shi Nuan, you know that too!”

Shi Wei looked down towards the ground helplessly. Making sure that Anna and Su Su were not looking, the woman clenched her fists tightly as the corners of her mouth curved up into a cold smile.

Shi Nuan, I’ll see what else you can do now! You want to snatch Fu Xicheng away from me? I’ll show you the price you’ll have to pay for it tomorrow.

Shi Nuan had originally not intended to attend the class gathering tomorrow. However, Song Rongrong and Su Yian kept persuading her to go, saying that they had not attended a class gathering in a long while. Moreover, they had a few other good friends from those days whom they had not met in a long time too. When the class monitor, Liu Min, got married previously, none of them had attended her wedding. This time round, Liu Min had specially called to remind them of the class gathering, and insisted that they had to go, for the sake of the camaraderie they shared.

Shi Nuan was feeling tortured by the pressure coming from Song Rongrong and Su Yian. Furthermore, Liu Min had even personally given her a call tonight, to make sure that she turned up, as the class monitor wanted to introduce some friends to her.

After the woman hung up the phone, she fell into a daze for a second. Just then, Fu Chengyan came out of the shower, with water still dripping from his wet hair. Shi Nuan put away her phone and asked, “Why didn’t you dry your hair?”
