I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 381

“Yes. It seems to be the case. Yu is definitely a descendant of the Fu clan.” A look of displeasure crossed Fu Chengyan’s face as he thought about the test results. Since Yu is not my son, there are only a few possibilities of who his father can be. After all, the few direct descendants of the Fu clan consist of my grandpa, my uncle, my father and I. It can’t be Uncle Heng, so it may be my father. If that’s the case, I really don’t know what to do.

Fu Chengyan massaged his temples as he felt the beginning of a headache creeping along the base of his neck. Looking at the troubled look on his face, Shi Nuan felt worried as she realized that this matter concerned the entire Fu clan. “You…”

“I’m alright!” Fu Chengyan shook his head. “There is a reason why I didn’t want to tell you the truth. I have yet to find out the answers to everything.”

Shi Nuan understood Fu Chengyan well enough to know that he was not his usual self despite his nonchalant tone and calm manner. She pursed her lips together. “Stop explaining then. I don’t want to know everything for now.”

“But you have mistaken my relationship with Shen Qianan,” Fu Chengyan protested in a helpless and aggrieved tone. Shocked by the unusual child-like aggrievement in his eyes, Shi Nuan was dumbfounded and could not react for a second.

“Why aren’t you replying to me?” Fu Chengyan decided to push his luck by leaning closer to Shi Nuan and holding her hands in his. He felt that he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

 

The past few days had caused Fu Chengyan to feel so insecure and miserable that he was willing to do all sorts of absurd acts to win her back.

Shi Nuan could not help but tremble as Fu Chengyan took her hands in his. I haven’t felt this way for a long time. Initially, I thought that I won’t be able to accept Fu Chengyan’s explanation. But now that I come to think of it, it’s pretty acceptable.

 

“Um… I don’t blame you since you have made yourself clear. It’s just that… I still feel terrible!” Shi Nuan sighed deeply as she struggled to withdraw her hands from his grip. “Let go of me first!”

Fu Chengyan looked at her, determined not to let her go. Finally, Shi Nuan gave up. “Why is Shen Qianan pestering you if you have nothing to do with her?”

Fu Chengyan curled his lips. “I want to know the reason too. Whatever it is, it is not because she likes me.”

“Why are you so sure?” Shi Nuan asked in a suspicious tone. I’ve seen how Shen Qianan treats Fu Chengyan. She behaves as if she is his ex-lover! It is clear that she wants to be together with him!

“I’m not sure. But I understand her character very well. She used to cling to me, but ever since she disappeared for a month three years ago, she had been very cold to me and even left me for another man. What’s more, she got pregnant afterwards.”

“Maybe she fell in love with another man at that time? And that child is theirs?” Shi Nuan finally understood Shen Qianan’s motive for returning now. “So it is not because of you that she has returned with Yu. Aside from your grandpa wanting her to destroy our relationship, she has come back for the kid’s father!”

Fu Chengyan smiled. A mixture of approval and humor flashed across his eyes. “So you have been tolerating Shen Qianan, not only because she saved your life before, but also because of Yu’s father?”

“Yes!” Fu Chengyan nodded. “His father is definitely a member of the Fu clan, although I don’t know who he is yet.”

“But the Fu clan members…” There are only you, your grandpa, your father and your uncle. All of you don’t seem to have anything to do with Shen Qianan.

Reading her mind, Fu Chengyan replied, “Actually, aside from my father and Uncle Heng, there is one more Fu clan member in their generation.”

“Who’s that?” Shi Nuan was astounded. “Why haven’t I heard about him before?”

“Even my memory of this person is vague, much less you. I have only thought about this person because it’s impossible that Yu’s father is my father or Uncle Heng.”

“Who is he?”

“Someone who has been forgotten long ago.” Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes at the memory of the mysterious Fu clan member. Suddenly, the car pulled to a stop, and the privacy screen was rolled down. Zhou Zheng announced respectfully, “Mr. Fu, we have arrived at Wutong Residence.”

As he looked into the rear mirror while making the announcement, his eyes darted to Fu Chengyan’s hands which were holding Shi Nuan’s hands tightly. He lifted a brow at the sight. No wonder he is my boss. He has managed to coax her within such a short period of time.

Suddenly, he felt Fu Chengyan’s glare on him like the heat of the blistering sun. Thus, he immediately turned his gaze away and went out to open the car door. “Mr. Fu.”

Fu Chengyan cast a glance at Zhou Zheng. As he got off the car while holding Shi Nuan’s hand, he ordered, “Go and investigate this person for me!” He took out a slip of paper from his pocket, wrote someone’s name on it before passing the paper to Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng took it with suspicion, and his eyes widened in shock as he read the name on it. “Mr. Fu, are you sure?”

“Hurry up and get it done!”

“Yes!”
