I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 426

It was indeed crazy.

Shi Nuan had always thought Fu Chengyan as well as both her own granddad and grandpa were the quirkiest people she had ever seen, but Fu Zhengyun was on another level. “Doesn’t your grandpa not like me?”

If he doesn’t like me, why is he doing so much for me?

Shi Nuan lowered her gaze to her belly. She was jealous of the unfair treatment the two of them had.

However, Shi Nuan soon figured there was nothing to be envious about. Her children were her assets.

Fu Chengyan seemed to be able to sense the thoughts streaming inside Shi Nuan’s head at the moment. Fu Chengyan ruffled her hair and said, “What’s important is the end result. I never care about the process.”

Shi Nuan raised her head and gave Fu Chengyan a broad grin.

“Young Master, Young Mistress, please change into these.” The maid handed Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan each a pair of shoes. “These are new. Old Master has already gotten them sanitized, so they are safe to use.”

Fu Chengyan quirked his eyebrows and gave Shi Nuan a meaningful look. Except for a gentle roll of her eyes, she didn’t know how to describe her feelings.

“Nuan is here?”

Fu Heng helped Ning Xin downstairs. The elderly woman was thrilled to see Shi Nuan. “Come here, love!”

“Aunt Ning! Uncle Heng!” Shi Nuan greeted them affectionately. She sprung towards Ning Xin the moment she changed into her new shoes. Fu Chengyan’s heart almost leaped out of his chest seeing his pregnant wife so reckless. “Slow down for goodness sake!”

Other than Fu Chengyan’s voice, another man’s voice also permeated the room. Fu Zhengyun saw Shi Nuan dashing across the room and shouted, “Stop running! Under no circumstances you are allowed to run! What if you injure my great-grandchildren?”

Shi Nuan came to an abrupt rest as the voices of the two men clashed at her eardrums. Now, she trod carefully as if she was literally walking on thin ice, which now appeared comical to everyone in the room.

Ning Xin was also amused by Shi Nuan’s exaggerated attention in each of her movements. She took Shi Nuan’s hands and led her to the sofa. “Nuan, let me have a look at you! You seemed to have lost weight! Did you lose appetite because of the baby in you? You went down a size!” Ning Xin was genuinely concerned about Shi Nuan. She glared at Fu Chengyan with blame in her eyes. “Yan, did you not take good care of your wife?”

Fu Chengyan didn’t know how to react. He finally admitted to the allegation made against him, “I’ll make it up to her from now on!”

Ning Xin scoffed lightly, “Good thing that Nuan is now with us! Since Uncle Heng and I have nothing much to do now, and Huan and Bao are not around to distract us, we can take care of Nuan!” Ning Xin was over the moon to have Shi Nuan at the Fu Residence, as she adored Shi Nuan almost as much as she loved her own daughter.

Shi Nuan smiled and replied, “Thank you, Aunt Ning! But to be honest, Yan has treated me like a queen! In fact, I gained quite some weight!” Shi Nuan pinched her cheeks. “Aunt Ning, look at this! How am I more skinny?”

“Alright then! Haha!”

“Also, I am perfectly capable of taking care of myself! There’s no need to worry about me.”

“Alright, alright! I will have more faith in you as a grownup!” Ning Xin exclaimed as she patted Shi Nuan’s head. “Are you hungry?”

“I’m okay.”

“The dishes are about to be served anytime now.” Fu Zhengyun turned up in the living room after spending dozens of minutes in the kitchen nitpicking at the chefs’ cooking.

Shi Nuan heard what Fu Zhengyun had done in the kitchen and stared at him in astonishment.

Fu Zhengyun noticed Shi Nuan’s eyes on him and instantly his face reddened with shame. He looked away and coughed dryly. “Hey you, listen up! Be more careful with yourself! Anything happens to my great-grandchildren and I’ll chase you out!” Fu Zhengyun pointed at Shi Nuan and uttered.

Shi Nuan raised a brow with mirth.

Fu Zhengyun was a peculiar old man. Despite having lived for so long, he still acted like a kid at times. Perhaps it was true what people said, that after a certain age, the elderly would starting to behave like children.

“Old Master, the dishes are done!” The butler walked out of the kitchen and asked, “When will be a good time to serve dinner?”

“Now!” Fu Zhengyun’s gaze fell on Shi Nuan’s belly. “I sure don’t want to hear any complaints about us tormenting our expectant mother over here.”

Shi Nuan uncontrollably swept her eyes at her husband. Fu Chengyan reached out at once to hold her hand.

Fu Zhengyun scanned the crowd in the living room. “Where are Fu Sheng and that woman?”

“Master Sheng is not at home. Mistress Zhenyan-” Before the butler could finish his words, Song Zhenyan emerged at the stairs.

Right away, her attention went to Shi Nuan. There was a complicated expression on her face. However, she continued her way down the stairs and headed to the kitchen without saying anything.

Fu Zhengyun snorted but didn’t utter a word too. It was obvious that he had something against Song Zhenyan.

Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan made their way to the dining room along with everyone. Once everyone settled down around the table, Fu Zhengyun declared, “Let’s start eating. I have no idea when that fella is going to be back. From today onwards, we will not wait for whoever late for dinner.”

As the head of the Fu family, Fu Zhengyun’s words carried much weight with them. No one dared to turn a deaf ear to his commands. Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan were not particularly intimidated by the old man’s authoritative aura. Yet, Shi Nuan was sure that Fu Zhengyun’s warning was directed at her.

Still, Fu Zhengyun had made a lot of progress compared to before. Shi Nuan did not expect Fu Zhengyun to immediately change his attitude towards her even though she was pregnant now.

“Alright! Serve the dishes!”
