I Want A Lifetime With You

Chapter 369

Shi Nuan’s words were obviously directed at Shen Qianan. She was not going to let herself be bullied so easily. If anyone tried to lay claim to her husband, she would take them down at all costs. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Shen Qianan couldn’t withstand Shi Nuan’s attacks. Her hands trembled as a streak of bitterness flashed across her eyes. She looked truly pitiful.

Shi Nuan glanced at the expression on the face that resembled hers and scoffed internally.

Shen Qianan’s gaze then moved to Fu Chengyan. She hoped the man would say something to defend her. When Fu Chengyan split up with Shen Qianan, he had sent her off without saying anything. Shen Qianan always thought Fu Chengyan still had feelings for her. If not, why would he marry someone who looked so alike as herself?

But unfortunately, Fu Chengyan didn’t notice the pitiful look on Shen Qianan’s face.

He was absorbed in his work. Even though a storm was brewing before him, he did not say a word.

Shen Qianan was disappointed, but she was not going to back down so easily. She took a deep breath and put on a smile. Then, she looked Shi Nuan firmly in her eyes. “You are indeed very capable, but it’s not good for you if you only know how to work. No man likes a woman who’s too caught up in her career.”

“Oh, is that so?” Shi Nuan lifted her lips.

She chuckled dismissively, but she was irked when she saw Shen Qianan staring at her husband. “So I can assume that your future husband prefers you to act weak and helpless?”

“You…” Shen Qianan was dumbfounded. She did not think that Shi Nuan would be so direct with her words. At a loss, she turned to Fu Chengyan unwittingly. The man’s brows quirked a bit but he still

continued working. Shen Qianan writhed her lips. “I just think that a woman doesn’t have to show that they are strong and capable all the time. Ms. Shi, you have mistaken my words!”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I really do have some other work to tend to at the Project Management Department. If there’s really nothing else, I will take my leave now. Not everyone can be so efficient as Ms. Shen as to have time for chitchat and tea but still be able to finish their work on time.”

Shi Nuan then smiled politely at Fu Zhengyun. “Chairman, I’ll take my leave then.”

Fu Zhengyun kept mum the whole time as his eyes shifted between Shi Nuan and Shen Qianan. In the end, he only stared as Shi Nuan left the room.

A beat later, Fu Zhengyun’s eyes drifted over to Shen Qianan. At once, the woman could feel icicles on her spine. She rose from her seat and said, “Chairman, I suddenly remember I still have work to finish. I’ll also take my leave now!” She then walked up to Fu Chengyan, then took a deep breath before saying, “Yan, I didn’t mean to take jabs at Ms. Shi just now. I was merely trying to…”

Fu Chengyan finally raised his head. The coldness in his eyes frightened even Shen Qianan. She subconsciously pinched her palm to force herself come to her senses. “Yan, I-”

“Looks like Grandpa only brought your body here but left your brains at home.”

The blood drained from Shen Qianan’s face. “Yan, w-what do you mean?”

Fu Chengyan annotated on the document he was reading as he spoke without looking at Shen Qianan. “Without my approval, you aren’t supposed to enter my office, especially with your rank in the company. Since it’s only your first mistake, you only have to pay a fine that amounts to one month of your salary.”

Shen Qianan inhaled sharply. “Yan, do you really have to-”

“Please address me by Mr. Fu in the office! Leave now!”

Shen Qianan still wanted to continue, but her throat was jammed shut by the icy air around Fu Chengyan. She bit her lips and scurried out of the office. The tears welling in her eyes were about to slide down her cheeks.

Fu Chengyan heard a loud bang as the door shut. He put down the pen in his hand and lifted his head. Then, his eyes met that of Fu Zhengyun’s. “Grandpa, do you think she will change anything in my life?”

Fu Zhengyun twisted his brows. “It’s true that she won’t be able to change anything. But let me be clear! Shi Nuan will never be the matriarch of the Fu clan. Dream on, Yan!”

“Then let me make myself clear too! There’s only one woman that I will marry and that will be Shi Nuan. I will not marry anyone else!” Fu Chengyan rose from his seat and looked down at Fu Zhengyun.

Fu Zhengyun slammed his walking cane on the ground. “You just want to challenge me and rebel against my words, right? Anyway, what good is that Shi Nuan woman? She has nothing. Her family has nothing. She can’t aid you in your career. How can she ever be a good fit for you?”

Fu Chengyan smirked. He had one hand in his pocket. His sharp eyes stared straight into Fu Chengyan’s eyes. “So what if Shi Nuan didn’t come from a prominent family? I have never expected her to help me in any way. Grandpa, you know that I’ve never care about what she can offer me!”

“You are the future head of the Fu clan. You can’t always have everything your way. I will say it one last time. Shi Nuan is not suitable for you.”

“I think she’s the perfect match for me! No one in the world will ever be able to replace her!” Fu Chengyan was not going to compromise even if he had to rebel against his grandfather. He was fearless.

“You’ve also seen it yourself just now. So what if Shen Qianan is from the prestigious Shen family? She can’t work for her life! Just this point alone proves that anyone can be better than her!” he retorted.

“You!”

Fu Zhengyun suddenly had a moment of realization. “Don’t tell me you didn’t interrupt their argument just now because you wanted to show me what Shi Nuan is capable of! Yes, I do agree that Shi Nuan is more capable than Shen Qianan. But as long as I don’t agree, she will never be a part of the Fu family.”

“My wife doesn’t need your approval!” Fu Chengyan shot Fu Zhengyun down right away. “It’s quite late now. Grandpa, if you have anything else that’s work-related, please go ahead and tell me about it. But if you want to stick around to talk about my personal affairs, I don’t think I can carry on with the conversation. Now that Shi Nuan and I are legally wedded, there’s nothing you can do to tear us apart. I hope I have made myself clear enough!” Fu Chengyan paused a while before adding, “Grandpa, aren’t you curious as to whose child Yu is?”

Fu Zhengyun gawked at Fu Chengyan. “Didn’t she say that you’re Yu’s father?”

Fu Chengyan plastered on a smile. He was relaxed now. Slumping his body against the side of the sofa, he uttered mysteriously, “Grandpa, why do you believe her now? You used to think she was lying back then, no?”

Fu Zhengyun’s face was as white as a sheet. “I’ve done a DNA test on Yu. He’s indeed descended from the Fu family.”

Fu Chengyan’s face twitched as he gritted his teeth. “And thus you think the kid is mine?”

Fu Zhengyun tightened the grip on his walking cane. “Just tell me! Did you sleep with Shen Qianan back then?” If Fu Chengyan did sleep with Shen Qianan before, then what happened during the month Shen Qianan was taken away? Shen Qianan never divulged to anyone what happened to her in the month she disappeared.

When Shen Qianan showed up in Fu Chengyan’s room with her clothes disheveled, everyone thought something happened between the two of them. However, Fu Chengyan had gone over to the Song family in the capital after that, and when he came back, Shen Qianan was already pregnant.

Fu Chengyan neither admitted nor denied anything. The only thing he did then was sending Shen Qianan out of Z Nation.

After Shen Qianan left, there were a few racy pictures of Shen Qianan left at the Fu Residence. It was at this time Fu Zhengyun and Fu Sheng decided to call off the marriage between Fu Chengyan and Shen Qianan. After that, no one ever brought up Shen Qianan again.

But during the previous time Fu Zhengyun went to C Country to visit Shen Qianan, he really found Yu familiar looking. At once, he suggested Shen Qianan carry out paternity testing for Yu. Fu Zhengyun could not let Fu Chengyan know about the testing. Thus, he was the one who provided the genetic material required for the paternity test. In the end, it was proven that Yu was related to the Fu family.

Thus, Fu Zhengyun doubtfully brought Shen Qianan and Yu back to the Fu Residence. If Yu were indeed Fu Chengyan’s son, he would legally adopt Yu into the Fu family after he had driven Shi Nuan away. To Fu Zhengyun, Shen Qianan was also not good enough for his grandson. He would never let Fu Chengyan marry her too.

“You are underestimating me, Grandpa. I will never let my woman be harmed by anyone. If Yu is really my son, I will not neglect him. Why do you think I sent Shen Qianan away back then?”

Fu Zhengyun’s words were caught in his throat. “But the results of the paternity testing show that-”

“Pfft! Grandpa, you can’t trust everything you see. I can also ask Shaoqing to forge such medical documents for me.” Fu Chengyan scoffed. “Grandpa, you were in the business world for such a long time. How could you be fooled by such tricks?”

Fu Zhengyun’s face was covered in gloom. He loathed being reprimanded by his grandson. “Even if Yu is not your son, I will still not accept both your wife and Shen Qianan into the family!” That was Fu Zhengyun’s ultimatum.

He continued, “Don’t make me repeat myself. I will only take Shi Nuan as my wife. If you wish to remain in your stance, then I have to apologize. There’s no way I can ever conform to your wishes! I don’t care whatever happens to the Fu family!”

“You brat! Don’t you dare threaten me!” Fu Zhengyun’s sullen eyes were glowering at Fu Chengyan. “I was the one who gave you this position you have now! If you think I can’t remove you from this office, think again! Your woman or your career? You can only choose one!”

The color on Fu Chengyan’s face also faded. “If that’s the case, I have nothing else to say. Grandpa, if this is how things have to go down, you know what my decision is going to be.”

“You…” Fu Zhengyun clenched his fist around his walking cane. The veins on his hand were bulging.

Fu Chengyan furrowed his brows once Fu Zhengyun stormed out of the office. Out of the blue, someone knocked at the door. Fu Chengyan groaned in annoyance, “What is it!”

“Mr. Fu, it’s me!” Zhou Zheng entered the room. “There is some information about Yu from K Nation!”

Zhou Zheng passed the files to Fu Chengyan. “Mr. Fu, Yu actually did a paternity test with your grandfather before. The report has not been tampered with. Yu is indeed related to the Fu family.”

Fu Chengyan was slightly taken aback. He narrowed his eyes and ordered, “I want you to find out what happened to Shen Qianan in the month she disappeared three years ago.”
