I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 345

“Mr. Li, Ms. Li went elsewhere today once you left. She met with your third uncle, Li Cenbei.” Li Heng’s men reported.

Li Heng’s men, who followed Pei Huan, handed him a recording and said, “This is a recording of their conversation. Unfortunately, we couldn’t secure a clearer recording because we were too far away.”

Li Heng squinted his eyes as he took the recording from his subordinates and listened to it carefully. His gaze soon turned sharp. “Where did Pei Huan go after that?”

“She went straight back to Wutong Residence, but she didn’t seem to be in a good mood.”

Li Heng waved his hands. “Send two other men to follow Li Cenbei. Let’s see what other tricks he has up his sleeves!”

Once everyone had left, Li Heng stood by the window sill and looked out into the dark sky. He stretched out his hands and clenched his fists tightly as his eyes burned a terrifying gaze.

I did not plan to push things. However, they’ve left me with no choice.

Li Heng composed himself and called Fu Chengyan, “I’ve figured it out. It was Li Cenbei who injected the virus into Pei Huan. It seems that I’m next on his list. As for Bao…” Li Heng paused. “I plan to place Bao in your care for now!”

“Alright!” Fu Chengyan’s gaze hardened as he asked, “Do you need my help?”

“Everything’s still in the stage of deployment, but you should increase the manpower at K Nation. I’ve sent out some men in search of the ghost doctor, and I’m hoping to receive good news soon.”

“Got it!” Fu Chengyan nodded. After he hung up, he turned and saw Pei Huan standing behind him. He squinted his eyes and asked, “Why aren’t you asleep?”

“Chengyan, I need to talk to you.”

“Is it about Bao or Li Heng?” Fu Chengyan asked. Pei Huan was slightly surprised, smiling bitterly. “Both!”

Fu Chengyan nodded. “Is Bao with Nuan right now?”

“Yup!” Pei Huan nodded. “Thank you, Chengyan!”

“Let’s talk in the study.”

Once they were both in the study, Fu Chengyan gestured Pei Huan to sit down. “What is it? I’ll do my best to help you within my abilities.”

Pei Huan paused before saying, “It’s about my mother’s illness. Is it possible for you to find a suitable bone marrow match for my mother? If we can’t, what happens then?” Pei Huan glanced at Fu Chengyan with a solemn look.

Fu Chengyan pondered slightly and sighed. “Huan, I know how tough this is on you. I also grew up under Aunt Ning’s care, and she treated me like family. In fact, I – more than anyone else – hope that Aunt Ning’s illness can be cured as soon as possible. However, you should know that the chances of finding the right bone marrow match are extremely low. Your husband’s condition doesn’t cut it. Therefore, I had to look for someone else. I might find it soon enough though…”

“You may never find it too, right? Or even if you found a match, my mom would already have passed?” Pei Huan’s voice trembled as she swallowed nervously. Her face went pale, “This is all my fault. My mother wouldn’t have become like this if I hadn’t abandoned my parents to run away from the sad memories.”

“Huan, this isn’t your fault. No one expected this to happen!” Fu Chengyan patted Pei Huan in comfort. “You should think on the brighter side. Who knows, we might be in luck and find a match instantly?”

“How is that possible… My mom, she…”

“Huan, as long as there’s a glimmer of hope, don’t give up.” Fu Chengyan stood up and looked at Pei Huan condescendingly. “You’re a fighter, and fighters don’t give up so easily. Besides, even if you and everyone else fails… I believe that the Ning family will pull through this!”

“Ning family?” Of course, my mother is from the Ning family.

A wave of realization then hit Pei Huan. “I can go to the Ning family and ask them for help!”

Pei Huan got up and was ready to leave, but Fu Chengyan halted her. “Huan, don’t worry. I have already sent Pei Jingxiu to take care of this matter.”

“Pei Jingxiu?” Oh, right. Jingxiu is Mr. Li’s adopted son from the Ning family. He was also raised by Ning Xin for a short while. He must have been here when Ning Xin fell ill.

“So you’ve already prepared ahead for this?”

Fu Chengyan nodded. “I believe you know Ning Xi, don’t you? She’s the daughter of the Ning family who wandered alone and away from the Ning family. She’s now amid a medical examination in Jiang City. The report will be out in a couple of days!”

Pei Huan let out a sigh of relief upon hearing those words.

Fu Chengyan motioned her to sit down. “Alright, we’re done talking about Aunt Ning’s matter. What else did you want to talk to me about?”
