I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 165

“Don’t worry, I will not let her ruin your happiness!” Jiang Yu said as she flashed a cruel expression. She won’t let Shi Nuan ruin Shi Wei’s happiness, just like how her mother had ruined hers.

Shi Wei was relieved once she had Jiang Yu’s reassurance. She knew better than anyone that not only did her mother didn’t love Shi Nuan but she hated her to the bone. Shi Wei had known this since a young age when she still had a close relationship with Shi Nuan.

Shi Wei was playful then. Once, she hid in the closet in Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu’s bedroom while playing hide-and-seek and overheard the secret — that Shi Nuan was not her biological sister. Instead, Shi Nuan’s biological mother was someone whom her mother hated. This had caused Shi Wei to change her attitude toward Shi Nuan.

Shi Wei never told anyone about that incident. However, she clearly knew that her mother, Jiang Yu was not truly genuine in helping her too. Jiang Yu did it mostly out of revenge because she would think of that woman whenever she saw Shi Nuan since they looked very much alike.

Shi Nuan narrowed her eyes and displayed a frosty look. Since Shi Wei was little, her mother had taught her to seize everything Shi Nuan owned. She loved Fu Xicheng and she wouldn’t let Shi Nuan take Fu Xicheng away from her. Shi Nuan was a jinx — just like her biological mother.

“Remember don’t tell Xicheng about this. Both of you are newly-weds so talk to him nicely and don’t fight with him. Do you understand me?” Jiang Yu was worried that Fu Xicheng might still have feeling for Shi Nuan. Hence, it would only bring more damage if Shi Wei were to fight with him. “You should show filial affection toward his parents so that they know you’re the perfect match for Fu Xicheng!”

 

“I know, mom!” Shi Wei had calmed herself down in order for her not to make any rash decisions. She couldn’t let it slide knowing that Fu Xicheng still had feelings for Shi Nuan but what else could she do? Fu Xicheng will never divorce her as long as Fu Yuqing and Liu Minjun acknowledge her as their daughter-in-law.

“That’s great. As long as you know what to do. I think Xicheng and your father are done with their conversation. Let’s go!”

 

Shi Jingzheng and Fu Xicheng were talking about business. Shi Jingzheng was very pleased with Fu Xicheng as his son-in-law because he was smart and diligent. Both of them met Jiang Yu and Shi Wei who just came out of the room.

Shi Wei clutched Fu Xicheng’s arm and her face lit up with glee, “Xicheng, you’re done talking with dad?”

“Mm!” Fu Xicheng’s brows creased as he suddenly recalled what happened at Yun Ling today. Shi Nuan had gone on a blind date with someone else and it was time for him to let go since there was nothing he can do. A pang of guilt hit him when he saw Shi Wei’s smiling face. He patted Shi Wei’s hand gently, “We’re just talking about business. What did you and mom chat about just now?”

“That’s a secret!” Shi Wei smiled, “Xicheng, let’s go home!”

“Alright!”

Fu Xicheng and Shi Wei left the Shi family but the atmosphere in the car was gloomy. Shi Wei was unhappy because Fu Xicheng had gone to Yun Ling today to meet Shi Nuan. However, she could only hide her anger as her mother had reminded her to not argue with Fu Xicheng.

Fu Xicheng had sensed Shi Wei’s low spirits and he felt guilty as he recalled what happened today, “What’s wrong?”

Shi Wei shook her head while looking distressed, “Erm…nothing. It’s just that my mom had told me something.”

“Mm? What is it?” Fu Xicheng decelerated when he saw Shi Wei was downhearted, “Tell me about it! You can always share your problems with me.”

Shi Wei pursed her lips and pressed her hands together, “It’s nothing actually.” She stole a glance at Fu Xicheng. “My mom is worried that you would dump me because I am busy with my acting career and I can’t take good care of you. She asked me to quit my career so I can spend more time with you and have a baby.”

Fu Xicheng’s expression suddenly changed but he managed to compose himself and said, “Mom cares about you but it’s your decision though.” Fu Xicheng reached for her hand and patted it gently, “Are you feeling insecure with me recently? It’s all my fault, but Wei you know I love you.”

“I know.” Shi Wei bit her lips, “I know you love me, or else you won’t…I know I’m wrong when I hurt Nuan previously. Xicheng, you know that my mom and I are constantly trying to make it up for Nuan.”

“Mm!” Fu Xicheng nodded. He felt remorseful because he knew it. He felt sorry for Shi Wei as he looked at her. He knew Shi Wei loved him. After all, he had hurt Shi Nuan and he didn’t want to hurt Shi Wei.

“Wei, I promise you that I won’t do anything to displease you. You decide when we shall have a baby. I will never divorce you no matter what.” He had married Shi Wei so he could only let Shi Nuan down.

“Mm! Thank you Xicheng, you are always so nice to me!” With her teary eyes, Shi Wei gripped Fu Xicheng’s hands tightly. Unbeknownst to anyone, she was devilishly rejoicing in her heart.

Shi Nuan, you’re a loser! Fu Xicheng belongs to me, Shi Wei!

Recently, Lin Yu had brought Shi Nuan along as they were working outdoors. She wore sports attire and sports shoes so it would be more convenient at work. Although it was wintertime, the sun was still blistering outside. Shi Nuan’s weight had dropped drastically and her skin tone had darkened.

Song Rongrong couldn’t stop laughing at Shi Nuan when she saw her appearance. Although Shi Nuan was working for Shengyuan Group, it looked like she was doing a mining job elsewhere. Shi Nuan was disgruntled because of his teasing.
