I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 386

“What a flirt!” Fu Chengyan pinched Shi Nuan’s nose and looked at her tenderly. “You must want something if you’re treating me so well.”

“You’re so smart!” Shi Nuan laughed, then tiptoed and kissed Fu Chengyan’s chin. “Shen Shixiu.”

Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes. “You want me to investigate him?”

Shi Nuan nodded, then sighed softly. “He looks so similar to my uncle. Even though it’s not uncommon for people to look alike…” Shi Nuan paused. “I look rather similar to Shen Qianan. Now, Shen Shixiu looks similar to my uncle, too. Yan, do you still remember my family background?”

“You want me to investigate your relationship with Shen Shixiu and Shen Qianan?”

Shi Nuan nodded. Even though she was still smiling, it was now bittersweet. “I don’t want to believe it is true, either, but don’t you think it is too much of a coincidence?”

“Yes.” Fu Chengyan nodded. Holding Shi Nuan’s hand, he walked inside. “Is that why you wanted to stay there today? To see if Shen Shixiu is really Shi Yu?”

“Yes!”

“I got it. Leave this to me. I’ll definitely find out the truth for you!” Actually, he had the same thoughts as Shi Nuan.

After all, coincidences seldom happened twice. There must be something more to this than meets the eye.

The two of them headed upstairs. From the second-floor balcony, Shen Qianan’s gaze fell onto Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan. The glimmer of sadness in her eyes reflected her unbearable pain.

The next day, Fu Chengyan left together with Shi Nuan while Shen Shixiu brought Shen Qianan away with him. Even though Shen Qianan was unwilling, she couldn’t disobey Shen Shixiu.

Not many people truly understood Shen Shixiu, but as his sister, Shen Qianan knew his temper well. Shen Shixiu was someone to be feared.

Back then, when Shen Qianan first met Shen Shixiu, he was still a teenager, but he was already very cunning. Even though she was also a teenager then, she was already afraid of Shen Shixiu.

“Sir! Madam!”

Shen Shixiu had come to Jiang City prepared. His deputy, Jiang Zhan, had also come along to be his chauffeur.

When Jiang Zhan saw Shen Qianan carrying Yu, he moved over to take him from her, but she refused. “I can carry him. Yu gets scared easily.”

Jiang Zhan retracted his hands and opened the car door for Shen Shixiu and Shen Qianan. “Sir, I’ve already settled the hotel arrangements. Based on your schedule, we will need to stay in Jiang City for about a month!”

“Okay!” Shen Shixiu nodded and took the tablet from Jiang Zhan, briefly scanning his schedule. He asked, “Is the headquarters of the Prosperous Group still in Sheen City?”

“Yes. However, there is also a branch in Jiang City. Right now, Li Heng’s nephew Li Xufan is in charge.” Jiang Zhan got into the car. “Sir, shall we go to the hotel now?”

“Alright. Please help to arrange Ms. Qianan’s schedule as well.” As Shen Shixiu spoke, he glanced at Yu, who was lying in Shen Qianan’s arms. “Is he three years old?”

Shen Qianan looked at Shen Shixiu guardedly. Shen Shixiu’s mouth twitched. “After being in Jiang City for so long, haven’t you found a school for him?”

“No need for that. Yu is still young. There’s no need to enroll him into a school yet!” Shen Qianan rejected his idea right away.

Shen Shixiu raised an eyebrow. “Am I your enemy?”

Even though Shen Qianan pursed her lips and remained silent, Shen Shixiu could tell that she didn’t trust or like him.

Shen Shixiu’s lips curled up as he lowered his head and studied the information on his tablet instead. Throughout the ride, he would discuss work matters with Jiang Zhan, but he didn’t bother Shen Qianan anymore.

From their conversation, Shen Qianan guessed that Shen Shixiu must be managing most of Jiangyuan Group’s operations at the moment. Shen Qianan became even warier of Shen Shixiu. She asked, “How is Father’s health like recently?”

Looking up, Shen Shixiu paused. “So you still remember you have a father? Since you’ve returned, why didn’t you go to the capital?”

“I don’t think Father wants to see me, either!” Shen Qianan’s mouth twitched. “Since young, he’s never liked me!”

Shen Shixiu frowned. “No matter what, he is still your father!”

“Isn’t he your father, too?” Shen Qianan’s mouth twitched. “But did he treat you well?”

Shen Shixiu closed his files and passed the tablet back to Jiang Zhan, then looked at Shen Qianan from head to toe. “It seems like there’s another reason you’re not willing to go back home!” He said affirmatively.
