I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 150

When Su Shaoqing sent Shi Nuan back home, they met Fu Chengyan, who just got down after changing into a set of clean loungewear. Fu Chengyan raised his eyebrows and said, “Well, that’s late.”

Shi Nuan removed her shoes and passed a pair of indoor slippers to Su Shaoqing, “Please make yourself at home, I’ll go get you some water.”

Fu Chengyan lifted his eyebrows and looked at Su Shaoqing. He responded with a smiley face and teased, “Too bad you weren’t there, Chengyan. It was quite a show!” Su Shaoqing spoke as he sat down. He then made himself comfortable by placing his feet on the coffee table but Fu Chengyan kicked his feet back and said, “Mind your manners!”

Su Shaoqing was in a good mood. He smiled at Fu Chengyan and teased him again, “You need to be careful. Your wife just received a love confession. That fella confessed to your wife in front of me!”

“Who?”

Fu Chengyan’s face turned terribly scary and he glanced at Su Shaoqing coldly.

Shi Nuan just happened to walk out with two cups of water. She passed one to Su Shaoqing then another to Fu Chengyan and explained, “Don’t listen to him. He was just my classmate. There is nothing going on between us.” Su Shaoqing looked as if he was enjoying the chaos.

“OK,” Fu Chengyan was comforted with her presence. He received the glass of water and took a sip. He noticed that Su Shaoqing was not planning on leaving, so he continued, “I still have something to discuss with Shaoqing. Why don’t you go get a shower and rest?”

“Sure,” Shi Nuan glanced at Fu Chengyan and Su Shaoqing. She figured they probably had something important to discuss, so she left to give them some privacy.

After Shi Nuan left Fu Chengyan’s sight, he turned to Su Shaoqing and questioned gloomily, “Her classmate? Which one?”

Su Shaoqing curled his lips and smiled innocently with a spark in his eyes, “I knew you weren’t going to let it go.” Even though Shi Nuan comforted Fu Chengyan promptly, with his temper, he was not going to let anyone taint Shi Nuan. “Remember that reunion last time? Your wife was bitten by a snake. The classmate was the one who saved her.”

Once Su Shaoqing finished his sentence, he could feel the temperature drop down. He could not help sighing, “Chengyan, don’t be dramatic. He likes your wife, that’s all.”

“That’s not allowed!”

Fu Chengyan tried to recall the man who saved Shi Nuan and immediately squinted his eyes, asking, “What did he say to May?”

“Nothing much though. According to my observation, your wife was not attracted to him at all. So, you don’t have to worry. Comparatively, you are one of the most capable men in Jiang City. Now the problem is with my brother,” Su Shaoqing said.

Fu Chengyan furrowed his eyebrow, “Su Bancheng is not interested in May.” If not, they would not have reached their mutual agreement.

“Right, he is not interested. But my aunt owes it to your mother-in-law. You know Jiang Yu’s nature. Now that they can finally form ties with Su Family, they won’t give up easily. This could probably keep your wife busy for a while. In fact, my brother would be a nice choice- they have good taste!” Su Shaoqing gloated.

Fu Chengyan looked at Su Shaoqing but it was difficult to tell what was on his mind.

It creeped Su Shaoqing out, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Well, I still have you on my side. So from now on, you are responsible for your role as Su Bancheng,” stressed Fu Chengyan as he stood up and looked at Su Shaoqing condescendingly.

“What? Where did this come from? Come on, Chengyan, be sensible. I only promised you and my brother to help out once. It was a desperate measure. You can’t have me pretend to be him every single time. And she is your wife. Are you really OK with that?” Su Shaoqing protested and narrowed his almond-shaped eyes with dissatisfaction.

Su Shaoqing felt a sense of numbness rippling across his scalp. The thought of Fu Chengyan and Su Bancheng plotting against him together troubled him, “I treated both of you as my brothers, I don’t deserve this!”

Fu Chengyan curled his lips, his narrowed eyes looked smiley but full with conspiracies. He tapped on Su Shaoqing’s shoulder to comfort his anxiousness, “I believe in you. You will play this right in my favor. OK now, time’s up. You should go now.”

Fu Chengyan chucked Su Shaoqing out mercilessly. He went to the bedroom to check on Shi Nuan and found that she was taking a shower. He then proceeded to his study room.

To attend the wedding today, he postponed a lot of work. He still had to prepare the documents for tomorrow’s meeting. Hence, Fu Chengyan buried himself with work once he entered the study room.

After Shi Nuan had her shower, she waited for Fu Chengyan for a while in the bedroom. When he did not show up, Shi Nuan checked the hallway and realized the lights in the living room were off. She headed to the study room and found Fu Chengyan busy working.
