I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 437

“Marry you?” Fu Chengyan showed Shen Qianan a cold look.

Treating her like a fool, he insulted her, “Are you even thinking straight?”

Shen Qianan bit her lip. No matter what he says, I will not respond.

Glancing over at Shen Qianan, who was on the floor, he realized that this was the first time he had seen this side of her. Pinching his nose bridge, he sneered, “Do you think he will return to your side if the news that we are getting married spreads?”

“Aren’t you thinking too highly of yourself?” He stared at her arrogantly, clearly without a hint of respect for her. “Ask for something else.”

Shen Qianan laughed bitterly. Then she got up from the floor. “Don’t you want to find out who that man is? If you spread the word about our marriage, he will certainly hear about it. Once he gets the news, why would he leave his child in your hands? Fu Chengyan, do you dare to take this bet? If you won, you will know who this man is.”

“Oh?” Fu Chengyan chuckled. “Do you think I want to know who he is?”

Glaring at the man before her, Shen Qianan tightened her fist. She was obviously scared of him, yet she forced herself to calm down and stared him in the eye.

She had no other choice but to ask him for help if she wanted to find the father of her child.

After all, she already knew that she was nothing but a pawn to everyone in this game. However, she could not accept the fact so easily.

Matching Shen Qianan’s gaze, Fu Chengyan could see the same stubborn look Shi Nuan would give him.

He frowned. “It’s a pity because you got it wrong. His identity does not matter to me at all.”

“I don’t think so.” Shen Qianan continued to refute, “How can you be unbothered? There is such a powerful man in the Fu clan, and you don’t want to know who he is? How do you expect me to believe you?”

“Well, it’s up to you to believe it.” Then, looking past Shen Qianan at the door behind her, he called, “You have been eavesdropping for so long, I guess your legs must be hurting.”

Shen Qianan’s face turned pale when he heard what Fu Chengyan said. Instantly, she turned back. When Shi Nuan came out from the room, she felt her blood turn cold and staggered backwards, bumping into a chair behind her. Staring at the woman that just appeared, she stammered, “You…”

On the other hand, Shi Nuan did not expect to be discovered the first time she eavesdropped on them, and she felt slightly annoyed. She raised her head to look at Fu Chengyan, then at Shen Qianan before resigning to fate to walk out of the lounge. Feeling awkward, she raised her hand and waved. “Ms. Shen, hello. It’s been a while.”

At that moment, Shen Qianan could not describe her emotions. What is Shi Nuan doing here? How can she still seem so calm after hearing our whole conversation? She doesn’t seem surprised to hear about his true personality. How can she greet me so calmly?

Shi Nuan smiled at Shen Qianan but pursed her lips when she saw the latter staring oddly at her. “What’s wrong?”

Shock was written across Shen Qianan’s face who asked, “You were in there all along?”

Although Shi Nuan thought it was a stupid question, she still tried to control her facial expression. Smiling and nodding, she replied, “Yes, I have been in the lounge the whole time. I did not expect you to be here. Both of you seemed to be engrossed in the conversation with each other, and it felt rude for me to interrupt.”

While Shi Nuan spoke, she shot a look at Fu Chengyan like she was blaming him. If he did not call her out, she would not have chosen to come out at that time.

As a woman, Shi Nuan knew that Shen Qianan must be feeling fragile now. Aware that a third person was listening to their conversation, Shen Qianan must be embarrassed.

Sure enough, Shen Qianan’s expression turned ugly when she heard Shi Nuan’s words. She stiffened and gritted her teeth. “You must be really pleased then.”

Shi Nuan felt wronged. Looking at Shen Qianan, Shi Nuan frowned. She felt like she was being put in the spot, “Ms. Shen, you have mistaken. I’m not pleased to hear all that.” Well, I’ve already heard about this when Shen Shixiu and Shen Qianan were in the hotel earlier. Of course, I’m aware of this.

I feel wronged that she thinks that I’m pleased to hear all of this. Besides, there is nothing about the situation to be happy about. However, looking at Shen Qianan’s face, Shi Nuan was afraid that the former would not accept her answer, so she further explained, “Ms. Shen, I know that you don’t want to leave Jiang City, but there are many other ways to do that. Why do you have to resort to breaking up someone’s family?”

“You…”

“Actually, you don’t even love Yan. You only came back because Yan’s grandpa found you, and you don’t want to become destitute and homeless again. On top of that, Yu cannot do without a father, and you want to give him a complete family.”

Shen Qianan looked at Shi Nuan in disbelief, but the latter laughed instead. “Did you wonder why I acted this way? Normally most women would kick a fuss when they realize that their husband was messing around with other women. Isn’t that right?”

Shen Qianan bit her lips, refusing to admit to it aloud, but what Shi Nuan said was true.

After all this time, she might still have feelings for Fu Chengyan, but it was not the only reason she was here.

Since Fu Zhengyun found her, she knew she had the chance to return. The DNA test between Yu and Fu Zhengyun made her more determined to come back.

When Fu Zhengyun found her and asked to do a test with Yu, she was still unsure who her son’s biological father was and was hesitant. Then, when she bribed a doctor to change the results from the DNA test, she realized that Yu was related to the Fu clan.

It was not Fu Chengyan nor anyone she knew in the Fu clan. However, he must be related to them, that was why she came back.

Meanwhile, Shi Nuan could sense Shen Qianan’s hatred for herself. That woman…I don’t know how to describe how I feel about her. I don’t know if it’s sympathy or hatred, but they are not enough to describe it.
