I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 277

The news of Fu Chengyan leaving the Fu family home that eventful night had spread. Everyone was also clear on Fu Chengyan’s attitude toward Song Jingyu. He would never marry her so naturally, he wouldn’t show up for the wedding.

With such an understanding, everyone knew to act accordingly and was more cautious when it came to doing business with the Song family.

They all knew what kind of person Fu Chengyan was. It would good if he chose to not take action, but if he did, things would certainly blow up.

Song Zhenyan became extremely cautious because of the incident. She grew up in a household filled with strife; the scheming and backstabbing in the Song family were no less than the Fu family. The reason Song Zhenyan still had a firm standing in the Song family even after getting married was not just because of the Fu family, but also because of her tactics. Even though she was a woman, Song Zhenyan had built a lot of connections while she was still in the Song family. But after she married into the Fu family, she could never really stretch her legs and realize her potential. This was one reason Song Zhenyan refused to return to the Fu family.

She was getting very impatient. She could not let go of what had happened during dinner that night. Fu Chengyan was her son, and yet he treated her like a rival. She couldn’t and wouldn’t accept it.

“Yan, are you still listening to me?”

Song Huaiyan, who was all the way in the capital, quickly heard of the events of that night. Fu Chengyan’s attitude was a slap in the face for the Song family. This forced Song Huaiyan to have some serious thoughts about the issue. “What on earth was Fu Chengyan thinking?”

“Huaiyan, how about we just forget about Jingyu’s problem?” Song Zhenyan had turned it over and over in her mind and concluded that Fu Chengyan had no reason to treat her that way. Which meant all of it had to be because of Song Jingyu.

Song Zhenyan refused to admit this before, but after returning to the Fu family, she truly learned the meaning of indifference.

Previously, even though those in the Fu family disliked her, they never made it obvious. But now, every single member of the Fu family, from old to young, despised her and the Song family. The reason behind all this was none other than Song Jingyu and Fu Chengyan’s marriage.

Song Zhenyan admitted she had her own personal reasons and wanted to fix her relationship with Fu Chengyan, but she kept failing because of Song Jingyu.

“What are you saying?” Song Huaiyan inhaled sharply when he heard what Song Zhenyan said. “Did you get a concussion? Jingyu and Fu Chengyan’s marriage is a done deal. You agreed to it too! And the little piece of work took Jingyu’s virginity. How dare he try to pretend like nothing ever happened?”

“Huaiyan!” Song Zhenyan was getting a headache. “No one is sure what really happened all those years ago. Yan and Jingyu told different stories. Do you think Yan is someone who would take advantage of Jingyu and not own up to it?”

Even though Song Zhenyan’s relationship with Fu Chengyan wasn’t great, he was still her son, and she knew and trusted his character.

No one saw what happened between Fu Chengyan and Song Jingyu all those years ago. The only thing known was Fu Chengyan suddenly became enraged and stormed out of the Song house while the housekeepers looked on. Yet, none of them actually witnessed him taking advantage of Song Jingyu.

She claimed that something happened between her and Fu Chengyan. She also had the marks and bruises on her body as proof. So everyone concluded that Fu Chengyan was the culprit. Song Jingyu insisted so, too.

Song Zhenyan believed this version of events as well. However, after observing Fu Chengyan all this while, her intuition told her it was someone else who had sexually harassed Song Jingyu.

“He’s your son, so you’re naturally on his side. But don’t forget, you’re part of the Song family. Have you forgotten how the Fu family treated you those years ago? There’s not one good person in there. The Song family took care of you in your time of need, and that’s a fact!”

“I know! I don’t need you to remind me!” Song Zhenyan was nearly in hysterics when she interrupted Song Huaiyan. “I don’t need your constant reminder of my painful past!”

Song Zhenyan had experienced unimaginable pain when she was caught between Fu Sheng and Fu Heng. It was a past she couldn’t bear to revisit. “Anyway, if you want both the Fu family and the Song family to be unharmed, then my suggestion is for you to drop this matter about Jingyu and Yan’s marriage. Chengyan is my son, I know him. If you continue to go down this road, no one knows what he will do.”

“Aunt, what did you say?” Song Zhenyan’s door suddenly opened and in came a zombie-like Song Jingyu. Her eyes dripped with menace as she looked at Song Zhenyan. “Aunt, what did you say? What do you mean?”

“I…”

Song Zhenyan was so taken aback by Song Jingyu’s entrance that she dropped her phone. “Jingyu, listen to me. There’re plenty of good men out there, you can have anyone else you want. I’ll introduce some-”

“Enough!” Song Jingyu pushed Song Zhenyan away hysterically. “You were lying to me all this while! You said you would treat me well and help me with Yan. They were all lies!”
