I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 163

“You…you little brat…” Jiang Yu had lifted her hand to smack Shi Nuan when someone pushed the door of the room open, “Yo! What’s happening here!”

Su Shaoqing was leaning against the door frame while staring at Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu stiffened and halted with her hand still raised in mid-air.

Shi Nuan sneered without sparing a glance at Jiang Yu; then, she turned around to face Su Shaoqing, “Mr. Su, why did you come back?”

“Oh! I suddenly remembered that I have something to discuss with Ms. Shi. Well, guess I arrive in time to see this farce!” Su Shaoqing made an innuendo.

Jiang Yu’s face turned pale and she quickly retrieved her hand, “Mr. Su, is there something urgent that you need to talk to Nuan? Actually, I was just…”

“Aunt Jiang, I’m not an idiot and I can see what happened just now!” Su Shaoqing interjected coldly, “I never know that the missy of the Shi family is being treated so badly.”

 

His remark was a slap in Jiang Yu’s face, “Oh! Mr. Su, what are you talking about? Nuan and I have a close relationship with each other. What happened just now was just…”

“Mr. Su, let’s go!” Shi Nuan was unwilling to squabble with Jiang Yu anymore, let alone listening to any more of her lies. Nuannuan knew clearly that the sole reason Jiang Yu treated her nicely was to take advantage of her.

 

Su Shaoqing curled his lips, “Great, I will drive you home! But Ms. Shi, are you living with the Shi family or…” Su Shaoqing took a glance at Jiang Yu as he spoke.

Shi Nuan showed a mocking smile, “I’ve rented a house. I’ll have to trouble Mr. Su to drive me home then.” Shi Nuan’s words rubbed in Jiang Yu’s face since Jiang Yu had always mentioned that Shi Nuan was still living with them and that she cared a lot about Su Bancheng.

Both Shi Nuan and Su Shaoqing left Yun Ling and Su Shaoqing burst into a gale of laughter, “ Sister-in-law, your mom is such a nincompoop!”

Shi Nuan raised her brow, “Mm!” She was not in the mood of entertaining to his jest.

She could never change the fact that Jiang Yu was her mother and neither could she refute anything Jiang Yu did.

Su Shaoqing realized he had said the wrong thing and smiled awkwardly, “I’m sorry sister-in-law, I didn’t mean to…”

“I know.” Shi Nuan felt a little helpless, “It’s just that we can’t choose our family nor our parents.”

“Yes!” Su Shaoqing nodded, “Sis-in-law, get in. Fu Chengyan called just now and he asked me to drive you home safely!” Su Shaoqing gestured her into the car as he opened the car door.

Shi Nuan smiled faintly, “I drove here so there’s no need to trouble you.”

“Hey, you’re not.. Why don’t you leave your car at Yun Ling? You can ask Fu Chengyan to drive it back home when he’s free.” Su Shaoqing advised her because he just received a call saying that there was someone suspicious walking around.

Shi Nuan took his offer since Su Shaoqing insisted, “It is my pleasure then.”

“Please don’t say that. You’re like family to me.” Su Shaoqing got behind the wheels and the car drove into the stream of traffic soon. Fu Xicheng was standing not far away with his fists clenched and his eyes glowering.

He couldn’t believe Shi Nuan and Su Bancheng were together.

Fu Chengyan was busy in his study when Su Shaoqing sent Shi Nuan home safely. His eyes flickered when he heard the sound of car engine and paused his work at hand.

Su Shaoqing and Shi Nuan met Fu Chengyan who was halfway down the stairs and she rushed to him, “Yan!”

“Mm!” Fu Chengyan cast a glance at Shi Nuan and was relieved seeing that she had returned safely. Then, he shifted his eyes to Su Shaoqing. Su Shaoqing raised his brow, “Mission accomplished! But Fu Chengyan, how do you know there’s someone out there?”

“Who’s out there?” Shi Nuan peered at them dubiously, “What are you guys talking about?”

“Nothing!” Fu Chengyan stroked Shi Nuan’s hair gently and caressed her cheek, “You must be tired, go up and get some rest. I need to talk with Shaoqing!”

“Oh…alright!” Shi Nuan nodded, “Then I’ll go up now!”

Fu Chengyan’s gaze followed Shi Nuan as she walked upstairs before looking back at Su Shaoqing, “It’s just a guess of mine.”

Su Shaoqing winced the corner of his lips, “Do you think you were god and could guess it right?”

“So there was really someone out there?” Fu Chengyan motioned Su Shaoqing to take a seat. He put his hand in the pocket and his eyes were contemplative, “Is it Fu Xicheng?”

“You must have had an undercover spy alongside him!” Su Shaoqing’s lips once again winced, “You’re right, I saw him there. I noticed his car before I entered and it was still there when I left. I went back after you called me but guess what I saw?”
