I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 331

“Oh yes!” Bao clapped his hands in glee.

Li Heng’s eyes curved smilingly. “Ok! Let’s play that one again!”

“Wait!”

Seeing how Li Heng wanted to leave with Bao in his arms, Pei Huan immediately rushed over and snatched her son from him. “Why are you taking Bao out with you?” Pei Huan confronted him sternly. “I already said Bao is not your son, so why are you-”

“Pei Huan, it has been a long time since Bao last came out to play, so I don’t want to talk about this whole biological father thing with you. I’m not in a hurry, anyway. We have a long time ahead of us to clear things up,” Li Heng interrupted Pei Huan. “Goodness, I wonder how you raised Bao for the past few years. He’s already three, and it’s time for him to mingle around with people. Do you know he’ll end up with some character flaw if you always keep him indoors?”

“Enough, Li Heng! What right do you have to reprimand me? Bao and I are not even related to you. I’m warning you now; if you bring Bao out without my permission again, I’ll call the cops and get them to arrest you!”

Pei Huan turned around with Bao in her arms, but the little boy looked at her with his pitiful puppy eyes. “Mommy, why won’t you let me play with Uncle Li? I really like him!”

Hearing his words, Pei Huan’s brows knitted so tightly that it almost formed a knot. She didn’t expect Bao to be so attached to Li Heng, especially when he had never met the man before. How is Bao so close to him when they have never met each other before? Is this what people call the bond between a biological father and son? But I’m the one who put my life on the line to give birth to Bao! Throughout those years when I almost died of childbirth, struggling to raise Bao alone, Li Heng was never by my side.

“Be a good boy, Bao. You’ve been playing outside for a long time already. Let’s go home, alright?” Pei Huan wiped off the sweat on his forehead. “Look how much you’ve perspired. What if you fall sick later?”

“But…”

“Huan, since Bao is already here, let him have some fun. Don’t tell me you’re still worried that something bad will happen to him with so many of us here,” Fu Chengyan spoke up. He then eyed Shi Nuan briefly before adding, “Plus, it’s your sister-in-law that brought your son out, and not us. Letting Bao staying indoors all day is bad for him.”

“Yes, Huan. You shouldn’t worry about your son so much. We had so much fun playing with him just now. I know you’re worried about his safety, but Li Heng asked the park to clear the crowd before we came over, so there’s no one else here now. Besides, we’re now in Jiang City; no one would dare to harm Bao over here. You’ve seen how happy he is to play with us. I even took pictures of him too. I plan to develop the photos and keep them in our photo album. Bao looks so cute in here!” Shi Nuan gushed before her friend.

Hearing that, Pei Huan knew she couldn’t just leave with her son like that. Hence, she had no choice but to nod her head reluctantly. “Fine. But he cannot play for too long. Bao… he has been physically weak as a baby.”

“Alright, sure. We shall play for another hour and head back.” Shi Nuan chuckled at her reluctance. “Bao, your Mommy just agreed to let you play for a while longer!”

“Oh, yay! I love you, Mommy!”

Despite her reluctance, Pei Huan couldn’t bring herself to rob her son of fun and happiness. Hence, she brought Bao to play, with Li Heng tagging along.

Meanwhile, Shi Nuan took Fu Chengyan’s hand and dragged him to a bench. “Look how adorable Bao looks here!”

“Indeed!” Fu Chengyan had on a wide smile. “You seem to like children very much, don’t you?”

“Yes, I do!” Shi Nuan nodded happily as she waved her phone screen before Fu Chengyan. “Look, I’ve captured the moment when Li Heng is playing with Bao. They resemble each other so much! Bao is literally the exact copy of his father! Even their expression and actions are the same! My goodness…” Shi Nuan rambled away while commenting on the similarities between Li Heng and Bao. When she looked up, her gaze suddenly met with Fu Chengyan’s smoldering ones. She couldn’t help but feel her heart skip a beat.

Fu Chengyan’s face moved nearer and nearer as Shi Nuan stared at him. She blinked her eyes and touched her nose sheepishly while letting out a dry laugh. “Yan, why are you looking at me like that?”

Fu Chengyan’s slanted eyes were full of mirth as he replied, “Since you like children so much, why don’t we make one ourselves?”

Make one ourselves?

Shi Nuan’s heart thumped erratically at his words. She started to blush profusely as she looked into his attractive eyes. She couldn’t help but gulp in response. “Err… about that… Hehe, we should just let nature take its course. Having a child is something to be decided by fate, you know.”

“So you’re not against the idea of making one, right? My dear Mrs. Fu?” Fu Chengyan wrapped an arm around her shoulders, pulling Shi Nuan towards him.

The couple now sat on the bench with Shi Nuan’s head leaning on Fu Chengyan’s shoulder. From her position, she studied his handsome side profile with a crimson face. “Err…” Wait, do I even mean that? I don’t remember saying I want a child myself.

Regardless of what she meant, Shi Nuan indeed favored children, especially one as cute as Bao. Shi Nuan couldn’t help but melt at the thought of her future children that would be as adorable as Bao. “Actually, that sounds like a good idea!”

Shi Nuan jerked back to her senses after realizing what she had said. “Wait a second. I thought we were talking about Li Heng, Pei Huan, and Bao?”

“Yes, we were.” Fu Chengyan averted his gaze to the family of three. What a glaring sight!

“You seem to like Li Heng very much.” Fu Chengyan raised his brows at her. Are you saying that Li Heng is better than me? He thought while looking at her questioningly.

Shi Nuan’s mouth twitched at his answer. “But Li Heng has already apologized this morning. Didn’t he promise to buy me a brand new Ferrari as compensation?” Shi Nuan blinked her eyes innocently. Why do I have a feeling Chengyan wants to rig something off Li Heng?

“Err…” What? Wow, that’s so cunning of him!

I guess one should never try to guess the thoughts of Mr. Fu Chengyan, the cunning Second Master of the Fu clan. Even I cannot guess what sort of cunning tricks he has up his sleeves.
