I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 356

Fu Chengyan glanced at him but gave him the cold shoulder. Instead, he turned to nod slightly at Su Yunwan. “Good evening, Mrs. Su!”

“Good evening!” Su Yunwan nodded, her eyes darting back and forth between Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan. “Why didn’t you tell me that you’ve gotten married?”

Fu Chengyan chuckled. “My marriage with Nuan is very low-key. Only my good friends know about it. I plan to let you know when I have a wedding reception!”

Su Yunwan gave a slight nod. “You’re so lucky. Ms. Shi is a gentle and graceful girl. It’s Bancheng’s loss for not being able to be with her,” said Su Yunwan with a smile. Fu Chengyan and Su Bancheng looked at each other and smiled simultaneously.

“Mom, Mr. Fu and Ms. Shi were married long before she knew me.”

“Oh, really?”

Su Yunwan was a little surprised and looked at Shi Nuan in suspicion. “But the Shi family seems to…”

Shi Nuan smiled awkwardly. “Only my two grandfathers know about my marriage.”

Su Yunwan now understood. “It’s up to you young people to decide for yourselves. Like these two brats, despite their age and no matter how many times I’ve nagged at them, they still don’t have a girlfriend. They’re no match for you, Mr. Fu!” Su Yunwan knew that it was the family matters of the Shi family so she didn’t dwell on it. Instead, she changed the subject and complained about Su Bancheng and Su Shaoqing.

Su Shaoqing raised his eyebrows slightly. Obviously not wanting to continue with this subject, he said, “Aunt Su, it’s getting late now. Besides, we have been standing at the gate of the Shi residence, which isn’t very appropriate!” He then shot Su Bancheng a look and the latter also seconded, “I think Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu still have something to do.”

“Well, don’t forget to invite us to your wedding reception!”

“Of course!”

After saying goodbye to the Su family, Fu Chengyan left with Shi Nuan. Sitting in the car, the latter’s depressed mood—due to Fu Chengyan’s absence earlier—was now completely gone. Shi Nuan kept chatting happily with Fu Chengyan. “By the way, Yan, why did you go to Fu residence today? What happened there?”

Tightening his grip on the steering wheel, Fu Chengyan shook his head with a frown and said, “It’s nothing!” He paused. “The old man is just pulling a new trick.”

Sensing that Fu Chengyan didn’t want to bring it up, Shi Nuan reckoned that Old Master Fu must have asked him to divorce her. Hence, Shi Nuan lost the mood to continue with the subject. ““Have you had dinner, Yan?”

Fu Chengyan turned his head and said with a slight frown, “You didn’t eat?” His voice rose slightly in pitch but it carried an affirmative tone.

Shi Nuan was stunned for a moment before she hurriedly cooked up some excuses with a silly smile. “Umm… It’s all because there were too many guests today, and…”

“And you were pestered by the Shi family members?” Fu Chengyan sounded displeased. “You don’t need to entertain them.”

Shi Nuan heaved a sigh. “Do you think I want to?” In fact, she did avoid the Shi family members, but Jiang Yu just would not leave her alone. She had already fled to the yard but Jiang Yu still managed to find her. “Forget it. Let’s not talk about these unpleasant things. You must be hungry, too. I’m craving hot pot now. Why don’t you go with me?”

Shi Nuan reached out and shook Fu Chengyan’s arm as her head turned coquettishly with her movement. Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes and finally shook his head to yield to her request. “Okay. Where do you want to go?”

“Just the one we usually go to. There should not be so many people now.” Shi Nuan let go of Fu Chengyan’s arm in excitement. “I’m in a good mood now, so it’s my treat!”

Fu Chengyan shook his head once again and stretched out his hand to stroke the tip of Shi Nuan’s nose. “Don’t worry. I still have the money for this; I won’t let you go hungry!”

The mood in the Fu family home changed because of Fu Chengyan’s attitude.

Although Fu Zhengyun had brought Shen Qianan back, the former was actually dissatisfied with her as well. Fu Zhengyun was particularly displeased after seeing Shen Qianan’s son. But he had no other choice now. In order to make Fu Chengyan divorce Shi Nuan, the substitute, he could only use Shen Qianan.

Once Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan divorced, Fu Zhengyun figured he still had ways to deal with Shen Qianan.

Fu Zhengyun was of the opinion that neither Shi Nuan nor Shen Qianan was worthy of Fu Chengyan.

The mood in the Fu family was tense, to say the least. Fu Heng was obviously on Fu Chengyan’s side. Meanwhile, Ning Xin was not in good health. Although she had become a lot better after the operation, Fu Heng still did not want her to overexert herself, so he brought her upstairs to rest early.

Fu Zhengyun took Shen Qianan upstairs to have a talk, leaving Fu Sheng and Song Zhenyan sitting downstairs in silence.

Fu Sheng couldn’t describe his feelings at this moment. After all, he was the one who matchmade Fu Chengyan with Shen Qianan in the first place. But after Shen Qianan had done what she did, Fu Sheng also found it hard to continue supporting her. Coincidentally, Fu Chengyan sent her abroad at that time. Nothing happened in the past few years, so the recent turn of events caught them off guard.

“Hmph! Let me tell you, Fu Sheng. I don’t like Shi Nuan, but this Shen Qianan is even more annoying.” Song Zhenyan was irritated whenever she saw Shen Qianan and especially Yu. She was, in fact, on the same page with Fu Zhengyun in this regard.

Fu Sheng shot Song Zhenyan a puzzled look. “Are you saying that you’re taking the side of Yan and Shi Nuan?”

It was just that Fu Sheng didn’t quite understand one thing. Shen Qianan is not a fool, so she couldn’t have overlooked this. Why did she still choose to come back? Why did she choose to listen to Father?
