Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 555

Fu Chengyan laughed at Shi Nuan’s words and pinched her nose. “You can’t sleep?” Shi Nuan nodded while pouting. “Yeah.” Fu Chengyan chuckled and turned sideways, supporting his head with one hand while placing another on Shi Nuan’s belly. He then gently stroked it as though he was coaxing her. “Honey, I like you no matter what.” A bright smile appeared on Shi Nuan’s face. Just when she was going to speak, she felt a sudden nudge in her belly. “Ah!”

Meanwhile, Fu Chengyan raised his eyebrows as he could feel the pulses. The next moment, he sat up and placed his head near Shi Nuan’s stomach. “Did it just move?”

The latter nodded hurriedly. Curiosity and delight filled her eyes. “Yes. It just moved… Ah! Could it be the fetal movement, Yan?”

“It must be!” Although Fu Chengyan had never encountered fetal movements nor grasped what they were, he had learned about them in Yu Qing’s free lessons. She taught that one could feel the fetal movements once the baby reached a certain growth.

It was an indescribable feeling for Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan, who knew nothing about fetal movements, to experience what they were in person.

Shi Nuan stared at Fu Chengyan with excitement glowing in her eyes. Meanwhile, the latter’s expression softened. Under the dim light, he looked unbelievably gentle.

His big palm was on Shi Nuan’s belly as he caressed it gently. Joy swirled in his eyes as he coaxed, “Be good. I know you guys are excited, but it’s late now. Don’t disturb Mommy’s sleep, okay?”

Shi Nuan laughed happily upon hearing Fu Chengyan’s gentle voice. “Yan, will they understand what you said?”

“They will as my children are brilliant!” With that, Fu Chengyan neared her belly and spoke. His warm breath fanned Shi Nuan’s belly. Shi Nuan’s gaze softened when she saw how Fu Chengyan interacted with their babies. She reached out her hand, stroked Fu Chengyan’s black hair with her sleek fingers, and patted. “That’s enough. It’s late now. We should sleep.”

Fu Chengyan nodded and kissed her on the lips before he lay down. “Let’s sleep then.”

Shi Nuan closed her eyes eagerly. Meanwhile, staring at her sleeping face, Fu Chengyan reached out his hand and held hers, their fingers intertwining.

After Fu Ling left the hospital with Su Shaoqing, she halted the thought of not wanting to go back with the latter as Fu Chengyan’s words resounded in her ears. Fu Chengyan had been treating her nicely despite her awkward, opposing status in the Fu clan. Deep inside her heart, she was aware of Fu Chengyan’s kindness throughout the years. That was why she felt guilty and moved out of the Fu residence.

She knew that Fu Chengyan would never ask her to return to the Fu residence unless there was a serious matter. However, she would rather go to the Su residence over the Fu residence. The Fu clan was something that Fu Ling had yet to get over.

Fu Ling glanced sideways at Su Shaoqing, who was focusing on driving. She let out a weak laugh before she turned around and viewed the scenery outside through the window.

As for the Su family… it won’t matter much to me since nothing will ever happen between us. Regardless of her thought, her fingers were snarling tightly, turning pale. The color expressed how anxious she was at the moment.

In the meantime, Su Shaoqing did not know what she was thinking. What troubled his mind was Fu Ling’s attitude toward him. The latter seemed to be colder to him as compared to before.

Su Shaoqing thought that Fu Ling behaved in such a way just because of her unwillingness to follow him to the Su residence as he requested. Usually, he would give up on persuading her. However, for some reason, frustration built up in him at that moment as though he was worried about her safety or angry at her for having rejected him so many times.

“Let’s go to the Su residence?” Su Shaoqing asked. Fu Ling clasped her hands upon hearing that. After a while, she turned around and faced Su Shaoqing with a composed look. “Haven’t you already decided it, Mr. Su?”

The latter furrowed his eyebrows as he did not like her cold tone. “You don’t have to speak to me like that, Ling. I’ll send you to the Fu residence if you don’t want to go to the Su residence.”

“There’s no need for that,” Fu Ling rejected him curtly. She looked at Su Shaoqing indifferently. “I’d rather go to the Su residence over the Fu residence. Plus, we’re old acquaintances, aren’t we?”

The latter frowned, gripped the steering wheel tightly, and decided to keep his mouth shut, afraid that he would fail to control his outbursts. He was scared that his words would end up hurting Fu Ling. To be exact, he wished that the latter would vent her frustration on him.

Upon seeing the quiet Su Shaoqing, Fu Ling did not continue the conversation.

Her eyes darkened when she imagined what would happen next at the Su residence. Hence, she closed her eyes and stopped thinking about it.

Su Shaoqing felt suffocated in the stuffy atmosphere. However, the moment Fu Ling had her eyes closed was the only chance he dared to stare at her. There was no trace of arrogance found on her resting face. It was as if they had gone back to the old days.

Fu Ling had been staying by Su Shaoqing’s side obediently. However, her presence had always gone unnoticed by the latter. She never asked him for anything, but what she wanted was more than everything else he had. Her wish had turned into an extravagant hope as he could never fulfill what she wanted.

Su Shaoqing wondered for the very first time while staring at Fu Ling’s sleeping face.
