I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 164
She felt a sudden pressure on her shoulder so she lifted her head and bore into his eyes.
Fu Chengyan consoled her as he patted her on the shoulder, “You still have me!” Shi Nuan grinned and
ced her hand on Fu Chengyan’s, “I know!” She couldn’t imagine what would happen to her if it
wasn’t for Fu Chengyan.
Initially, Shi Nuan started going out with Fu Chengyan in order to break free from the Shi family and she
never thought she would fall for him. Her encounter with Fu Chengyan was totally unexpected but she
never regretted it.
“Don’t worry, I’m not the old naive Shi Nuan anymore and I won’t be deceived. But I’m worried that she
would ask me to date Su Bancheng. You can’t let Su Shaoqing back us up all the time! On top of that,
I’m afraid Su Bancheng’s parents would know about this!”
“Don’t worry, Su Bancheng will take care of it!” Fu Chengyan held her hands as he sat on the sofa with
Shi Nuan in his arms while drying her hair with carefully, “You don’t have to worry about this.”
“Oh…and today Su Shaoqing was harsh to my mom. Do you think my mom would go to Su
Bancheng’s mother?”
Fu Chengyan paused; the thought had never urred to him. However, he said, “That wouldn’t be
much of a problem, Shaoqing and Su Bancheng will take care of it.”
“Oh…alright!” Shi Nuan nodded, “That would be great.”
On the other hand, Su Yunwan had ended the call but her brows creased in displease.
She had been in poor health since she gave birth to Su Bancheng. She had insisted on giving birth to
Su Bancheng and her health had deteriorated since.
All these years, Su Yunwan had been living a solitary life in Jiang City ever since she came back from
Sheen City. Jiang Yu had contacted her out of the blue and brought up the past. Su Yunwan had
always remembered that she owed Jiang Yu a favor and that was the reason why she set up the blind
date.
But it seemed like Jiang Yu had changed a lot after all these years.
“Cheng!” Su Yunwan was holding on a string of chanting beads and she shook her head slightly, “I
heard that you quarreled with your Aunt Jiang today?”
Su Bancheng was brewing tea and he paused for a while. He furrowed his brows but smiled and
casually poured Su Yunwan a cup of tea, “It’s no big deal.”
“Is it? But your Aunt Jiang said you turned her goodwill down. I heard that the missy of the Shi family is
quite a nicedy. Cheng, you’re not young anymore. You should spend more time with her and maybe
you would start having feelings for her.”
Su Bancheng nodded, “Mother, I understand what you mean. Ms. Shi may be a nicedy but I have no
control over my feelings.” Su Bancheng raised his hand to hand Su Yunwan a cup of tea and his gaze
bored straight into her eyes.
Su Yunwan’s hand paused in mid-air while holding her teacup. She was a little lost in Su Bancheng’s
gaze but she managed to return to her senses. “Mother was not trying to pressure you but I owe her a
favor and now she asked for…”
“That would be easy. If mother had owed her a favor, I shall return her the favor as your son. I can
definitely show up on the blind date. But I suppose mother had mistaken Aunt Jiang’s intention.”
“What do you mean?”
“Aunt Jiang wants me to marry Shi Nuan right away.” Su Bancheng’s gaze was cold, “Mother, do you
know what’s at stake?”
“Fine, I will leave it up to you. But how long are you nning to stay this time?” Su Yunwan said, “It’s
not appropriate for you to stay in Jiang City for long since you’re a member of the Jiang family. Don’t
forget you’re the heir of the Jiang family, your father…”
“Mother!” Su Bancheng intervened in Su Yunwan’s words. He narrowed his eyes was getting
impatience, “I know what I’m doing. Everything is under control in Sheen City. Mother, I will im
everything that belongs to me, don’t you have faith in your son?”
“Fine!” Su Yunwan pursed her lips. She put down her teacup and picked up her prayer beads.
Su Bancheng understood that they would nevere to a consensus on this topic, “Mother, you
should rest earlier today. I’d better get going now!”
Su Bancheng called Su Shaoqing as soon as he left Su Yunwan’s room, “What have you done today?”
Su Shaoqing had just arrived home and was about to call it a day when he received Su Bancheng’s
call. He raised his brow at Su Bancheng’s interrogative tone, “What else could I have done? I went to
see Shi Nuan at your request, didn’t I?
Su Bancheng squinted his eyes, “What did you say to Jiang Yu? She was furious that she gave my
mother a call!”
“What? She even dared to call Aunt!” Su Shaoqing was perplexed, “Actually I didn’t say much. But you
know what, that woman asked me to marry Shi Nuan immediately! Erm…wait a sec! I mean Su
Bancheng, you’re the one who’s supposed to marry Shi Nuan! I would never promise her that!”
Su Bancheng frowned; it turned out to be exactly as what he had assumed, “You need to ask Fu
Chengyan to solve it. She’s his woman and he must solve the problem himself!”
“Hey, Brother! This is an agreement between you and Fu Chengyan so I have nothing to do with it!
Aunt asked you to go on the blind date, not me!” Su Shaoqing muttered, “I’m tired and I have a surgery
scheduled tomorrow morning so I’m going to bed now!”
“Wait!” Su Bancheng’s gaze turned cold, “You know I don’t have a good temper. I’m from the Jiang
family and you’re the one from the Su family. You will eventually need to take responsibility for the
future of the Su family.”
“Hey hey hey, my bad! I’m wrong, ok? I willmunicate with Fu Chengyan, alright?” Su Shaoqing
conceded, “I guess it’s karma. I owed you and Fu Chengyan in my past life and now you guys are here
to torture me.” Su Shaoqing gritted his teeth, “Anything else?”
With an aloof expression, Su Bancheng ended the call and went downstairs where he met Su
Shaoqing’s father, Su Huaibei. Su Huaibei sighed as soon as he saw Su Bancheng, “I wouldn’t need to
worry that much if Shaoqing is half as capable as you. Cheng, you won’t be leaving so soon, right?”
“Yes, uncle.” Su Bancheng replied as he led Su Huaibei into the study, “The Su family is such a big
family but no one is willing to take over the enormous family business. You’re grandfather and I, we’re
growing older and will eventually leave the Su family business to you and Shaoqing. But Shaoqing has
no interest in it, so it’s all on you.”
Su Huaibei was displeased that the younger generation of the Su family was running away from their
responsibility. Other families were fighting for inheritance but no one was willing to strive for the Su
family.
Su Bancheng curled his lips, “Shaoqing is still young and I can help to take care of the Su family
temporarily. We will eventually let Shaoqing take over the Su family business once he’s ready!”
Su Huaibei shook his head at Su Bancheng’s words, “I think you’re more reliable than Shaoqing. Oh,
and about Sheen City…”
“They wouldn’t need me back too soon since my brother is there.” Su Bancheng smirked but added as
he met with Su Huaibei’s worried face, “Don’t worry, uncle. Jiang Shengjing still has no final say over
the Jiang family at the moment.”
“That’s a piece of good news! I’m just worried that you might not be able to cope with both sides. Oh, I
heard from your mother that she had arranged your marriage, you…”
“I will consider. She’s a nicedy but the Shi family is not a good choice for marriage.”
Su Huaibei nodded in agreement, “As long as you know what you’re doing. Your mother…she cares
about you.”
“I know!”
Jiang Yu was still smoldering in resentment after she ended the call. She had never expected Shi
Nuan’s disobedience and Su Bancheng’s unruliness. She thought Su Bancheng wouldpromise for
the sake of her rtionship with Su Yunwan but he was intractable.
Jiang Yu was used to having the whip hand in the Shi family. She was infuriated because this was the
first time her had ever been humiliated.
When Shi Wei came back, Fu Xicheng was having a conversation with his father, Shi Jingzheng, in the
study. Shi Wei entered Jiang Yu’s room and found Jiang Yu in a bad mood, “Mom? What’s wrong?”

“It’s all because of Shi Nuan, that little brat!” Jiang Yu couldn’t me Su Bancheng so she ced the
me on Shi Nuan since she was her daughter.
Shi Wei recalled that Shi Nuan had met with Su Bancheng today, “Did Shi Nuan turn down the
marriage proposal? Who does she think she is? Su Bancheng was such an exemry man. How could
she refuse to marry him?”
“This little brat won’t listen to me and Su Bancheng won’tpromise either. They gave me a p in
the face as soon as I mention their marriage. His mother, Su Yunwan has always treated me with
respect but he was so disrespectful toward me.”
“Mom, you mean Su Bancheng refuses to marry Shi Nuan?” Shi Wei’s brows creased, “Then what
should we do now? Actually, Xicheng was disheartened the whole day when he learned that you are
setting Shi Nuan up with Su Bancheng and he even…”
Shi Wei was angry. Initially, Fu Xicheng promised that he woulde back with her in the afternoon
but he only fetched her at eight o’clock at night.
Jiang Yu clenched her fists at Shi Wei’s words, “You’re right, we can’t wait any longer! We must work it
out as soon as possible.” Jiang Yu and Shi Wei would only feel relieved after Shi Nuan got married. “If
Su Bancheng refuses, then we will look for someone else. I am sure we can find someone.”
“Mom, I think I have a better idea!” Shi Wei looked devious, “Do you still remember Yun Shen?”
“Yun Shen? Why do you mention him suddenly?” It irked Jiang Yu to think of Yun Shen. Yun Shen was
a tough nut to crack.
“You know how unscrupulous Yun Shen’s reputation is in Jiang City. If we let…” Shi Wei whispered in
Jiang Yu’s ears, “Mom, I don’t care! Xicheng will not give up as long as Shi Nuan doesn’t have a
boyfriend or hasn’t gotten married. I can’t afford to let her ruin my hard-earned happiness!”
