I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 420

It turned out that he had never trusted her.

The look in Shu Qing’s eyes dimmed. She looked down, her body trembling. After a long time, she looked up at Su Huaibei again—this time with a clear gaze. “You’re right not to trust me. After all, I’ve never trusted you either!”

“You…” The look in Su Huaibei’s eyes suddenly grew stern while his face clouded over. He was about to say something when the car came to a halt. “Mr. Su, we’ve arrived!”

Su Huaibei narrowed his eyes as he fixed his gaze on Shu Qing with a hostile look. She was in a daze, seemingly lost in thought.

Su Huaibei still wanted to speak, but Shu Qing had already put on her sunglasses, cutting off eye contact with him.

After opening the door and getting out of the car, she stood in front of Su Huaibei and gave him a cold look. “Don’t come in!”

 

Seeing Shu Qing enter Emerald Garden, Su Huaibei closed his eyes to clear his head. “What did she do lately?”

“Ms. Shu went back to see Old Master Jiang.”

 

Su Huaibei opened his eyes abruptly. “When did she do that?”

“Earlier in the afternoon!” Ellen paused. “Ms. Shu didn’t seem like she was hiding it from me. She knew I was following her.”

After carefully studying Su Huaibei’s expression, Ellen thought for a moment and then added, “Ms. Shu also saw someone today!”

“Who is it?”

“Shi Nuan, the second daughter of the Shi family.”

Seeing that Su Huaibei didn’t speak, Ellen carefully measured her words as she went on, “Ms. Shu seemed very emotional when she saw her!”

At this, Su Huaibei gave off a chill. “Shi Nuan? The daughter of Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu?” There was a slight chill in his eyes. “Isn’t she?”

“I think so!”

“You think? When did Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu give birth to a second child?” There was a slight emotional fluctuation in Su Huaibei’s eyes. “Get me the information about Shi Nuan right away!”

“I’ll get it done in one day, Mr. Su!”

A day later, Ellen gave all the information about Shi Nuan to Su Huaibei. When the latter saw Shi Nuan’s photo, he froze, his hand gripping the paper tightly. “Is this everything?”

“Yes!”

Su Huaibei waved his hand to dismiss Ellen.

After staring at Shi Nuan’s photo for several good minutes, he opened the file containing all the information about the woman.

The information inside was very detailed; it included Shi Nuan’s status in the Shi family, the things she had gone through since childhood, and her character. Finally, there was also information about her marriage with Fu Chengyan.

“Fu Chengyan!”

Su Huaibei stroked his chin. “It’s him!”

Shi Nuan was not doing great in the Shi family. As the second daughter of Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu, she did not receive the same treatment as Shi Wei. Instead, she kept being oppressed, and Shi Wei stole her boyfriend away in the end. This was the result of Ellen’s investigation.

The subsequent information showed that Shi Nuan had married Fu Chengyan, but the Shi family had no knowledge of it. This showed that Shi Nuan did not have a good relationship with Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu.

Su Huaibei fixed his sharp gaze on Shi Nuan’s face in the photo. This girl looked exactly the same as Shu Qing when she was younger, and she also looked very similar to Shen Qianan.

It dawned on Su Huaibei in an instant that this girl might be the child who had been abandoned by Shu Qing back then.

Could Shi Nuan be the child in her arms when she was abandoned by Shen Feng?

Su Huaibei abruptly rose to his feet. The moment he stood up, his legs went stiff. When Ellen and Min Han, who were outside, heard the sound, they immediately opened the door and saw him holding a coat, walking over slowly yet calmly. “I’m going to the Shi residence!”

“The Shi residence?” Min Han was dumbfounded. “Sir, you…”

Su Huaibei changed his mind. “Forget it. Go and find out where Shi Nuan is now. I want to meet her.”

“But, Sir, Shi Nuan…” Min Han hesitated, then shot Ellen a look.

Ellen didn’t actually know how to respond as well. Su Huaibei was unpredictable; they could not figure him out even though they had worked with him for many years. “Sir, why do you want to see Shi Nuan?”

Ellen could not fathom Su Huaibei’s action. What relationship could there be between Shi Nuan and Su Huaibei? It was already weird that he asked her to investigate Shi Nuan’s background before, but now he actually wanted to see Shi Nuan, which was simply baffling.

Su Huaibei shot Ellen a sharp look, silencing all his questioning instantly. “I’ll get the car ready!”

“I’ll find out Shi Nuan’s whereabouts right away!” Min Han immediately took out his phone to call someone when Su Huaibei shot him a look.
