I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 203
“What else do you want? I’ve just started the investigation, so I got little information. If you are curious,
go ask Jiang Shizheng or Shi Yunsheng. You can get an answer faster that way.”
Li Heng had already told him everything he knew.
Fu Chengyan furrowed his brows, because this was indeed an arduous task. It had been years, so it
was difficult to find out clues based on what they had. If someone deliberately withheld the truth, the
investigation would take a long time.
“Jiang Yu and Jiang Shizheng seem to be at odds,” Fu Chengyan recalled he had once met Jiang Yu
when he was Jiang Shizheng’s student, but Jiang Yu must’ve forgotten about it, since she didn’t know
who he was. “Focus on Jiang Shizheng and Jiang Yu, then.”
“Okay, I’ll try that.” Li Heng shrugged. “Wanna y a round?”
Meanwhile, Lin Yu and George were chatting enthusiastically. Like attracts like, and both men were
excellent in their field. George appreciated Lin Yu’s talents a lot. “Lin, if you didn’t choose toe
back, you would’ve achieved a lot by now.”
Lin Yu’s eyes flickered, but the man’s lips curved up in a faint smile. “Not really. Back then, I had my
own reasons to return. If I didn’t return, no matter how much I achieved, I wouldn’t be happy.”
Shi Nuan faltered upon hearing the man’s answer. She had been working under Lin Yu for only a short
time, but she knew the man well. Lin Yu was a workaholic. Nothing could change his mind when it
came work. If he had a great chance back then, why did he give up the chance to return?
Lin Yu said nothing when he saw Shi Nuan’s surprise. He merely smiled and said, “There was
someone important to me.”
“Oh, then did you find that person?” George’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. “Back then, you told me you
were going back for her, but I thought you were lying to me. So this person exists, then?”
Lin Yu paused, and his eyes darkened. His lips curled up in a bitter smile. “Yes, I found her. But I think
I’ve lost her again.”
Shi Nuan sighed wistfully when she saw Lin Yu’s expression. “Mr. Lin, you’re a great person. I believe
you’ll meet someone better in the future.”
“Thank you!” Lin Yu grinned. “I believe she’s doing well now, so it doesn’t matter anymore. Come, let’s
talk about something else.”
At night, Fu Chengyan treated both George and Lin Yu to dinner. Shi Nuan noticed Lin Yu was
interested in Su Yian, so she dragged her friend along to apany her under the pretense that she
didn’t want to be the only female at the table.

Su Yian wanted to say no, because she only knew Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan among them. Actually,
besides Shi Nuan, she wasn’t close to the others at all. But Shi Nuan kept begging her toe along,
so she didn’t have the heart to reject her. In the end, all of them went to Shuchang Restaurant.
Shi Nuan had booked the ce earlier. She chose this restaurant because they were treating George.
Shuchang Restaurant wasn’t the top restaurant in Jiang City, but it was the oldest restaurant in Jiang
City. The owner of Shuchang Restaurant was a descendant of an imperial chef of the Qing dynasty.
Hence, it was famous and popr for its food. If Shi Nuan didn’t make reservations, they might not be
able to go in.
George had heard about Shuchang Restaurant some time ago. A few years ago, he wanted toe,
but had to leave the country in a hurry because of his packed schedule. This time, the man was excited
to be here.
“Eric, your wife is really considerate.”
Shi Nuan and Su Yian were leading the way, and the owner of Shuchang Restaurant came to wee
them because he knew who Fu Chengyan was. But because Fu Chengyan was talking to his guest,
Shi Nuan went to the owner and told him, “Hello, I’ve booked the Changshang Pavilion.”
“Oh, are you Ms. Shi?”
“Yes,” Shi Nuan replied with a faint smile. “Please lead the way.”
“This way please, Ms. Shi!”
All of them arrived at Changshang Pavilion. Shi Nuan had already sat down after arranging the seats.
Fu Chengyan and the others arrived strolled in soon after. When Fu Chengyan heard George praising
Shi Nuan, his face lit up with an amused smile. “Mr. George, thank you.”
“By the way, Lin and I were talking about the West City project. He told me it’s a bitplicated this
time?”
“Not really. Let’s talk about work tomorrow!” Fu Chengyan gestured for George to enter the pavilion.
George—who was slightly embarrassed by his response—held back his enthusiasm.
George knew nothing about Fu Chengyan, but Lin Yu knew his boss well. The man had an idea of was
going in Fu Chengyan’s mind as he hurriedly changed the topic.
During dinner, none of them talked about work. Fu Chengyan paid full attention to Shi Nuan. No matter
what she wanted to eat or get, he would be the first one to pass it to her. It was slightly embarrassing
for Shi Nuan because her husband treated her like a child.
Meanwhile, the others chatted in French fluently during dinner. George was from France, so his mother
tongue was French while Lin Yu was his student. Su Yian would asionally introduce the Chinese
traditional culture George was interested in. So, the three of them seemed liked-minded.
Shi Nuan reached out to pinch Fu Chengyan’s waist silently. She motioned for Fu Chengyan to look at
Lin Yu and Su Yian.
Fu Chengyan was in the midst of peeling off the shells from the prawns, but he raised his head to look
at Shi Nuan. “Hmm?”
Shi Nuan gestured for him to remain silent before she signaled him to look at Lin Yu and Su Yian.
Leaning closer, she whispered in his ear, “What do you think about them?”
A smirk appeared on Fu Chengyan’s lips as he fed Shi Nuan a prawn. “Eat up.”
Shi Nuan raised her brows. Fu Chengyan said nothing, but she knew the man already knew what she
meant.
She couldn’t help but nce at Lin Yu and Su Yian again. They seemed like a perfect pair.
After dinner, Shi Nuan suggested Lin Yu to fetch Su Yian home, while she and Fu Chengyan would
fetch George home.
Lin Yu was a gentleman. Since Shi Nuan requested, he couldn’t refuse. Fu Chengyan saw through Shi
Nuan’s trick and shook his head in resignation.
After dropping George off, Shi Nuan recounted the events of the day. Fu Chengyan said nothing as his
wife chattered on. When she finally finished, he handed her a bottle of water. Shi Nuan paused before
taking the water from him. “Don’t you have anything to say?”
“No,” Fu Chengyan hesitated, “Are you tired?”
“Well, I’m not really tired. But, Yian must be tired. I forced her toe to dinner,” Shi Nuan chuckled.
“By the way, you have no idea how Mr. Lin stared at Yian when he arrived at the teahouse. He couldn’t
take his eyes off her!”
Fu Chengyan merely smiled as he tapped her nose. “Your actions were too obvious. Won’t your friend
feel awkward?”
“Was I that obvious?” Shi Nuan blinked. “I did this for them. Yian is an exceptional woman, and I think
Mr. Lin has a prominent character, too. He’s obviously attracted to Yian.”
“Not necessarily,” Fu Chengyan remained a neutral stance. “They are the ones who know their feelings
best. You shouldn’t interfere.”
“I’m not interfering. They seemed to be attracted to each other, so I’m simply giving them a push. If they
aren’t fated to be together, they can be friends.” Shi Nuan beamed in delight. “By the way, how did your
discussion with Li Heng go today?”
“Not bad.”
Shi Nuan held the water bottle right up to Fu Chengyan’s lips. The man nced sideways at her and
spotted the crafty look in her eyes. He shook his head in amusement and took a sip of the water.
“You told Mr. Zhou to deal with Shi Wei’s situation yesterday, right? How did it go?”
“She had a disagreement with someone at the drama set. The whole thing was recorded, and she got
threatened. It’s nothing serious. Zhou Zheng can deal with it,” Fu Chengyan replied, “So, you don’t
have to worry about her for the time being. She’s really asking for trouble.”
Shi Nuan nodded and fed Fu Chengyan a sip of water. “I think you know her well. She’s a ma for
trouble. I would know, since I grew up with her. Besides troubling me, she’d create trouble wherever
she went.”
Back then, Shi Wei liked to pick on Shi Nuan. Her sister was also on bad terms with their other
ssmates.
Shi Wei had a fragile look about her that attracted men, but women hated her.
Shi Nuan heaved a sigh of relief upon recalling that. “I hope she’ll be at the drama set for a long
time.” This way, I can stop worrying for a while.
But that was only Shi Nuan’s wishful thinking. She knew Shi Wei wouldn’t leave her alone. If Shi Wei
wasn’t busy shooting her drama, she might’ve tried to make Shi Nuan’s life miserable. Now, since she
couldn’t stir up trouble for Shi Nuan, she started creating chaos at the set.
Shi Wei’s assistant was a hardworking, servile girl. As Shi Wei acted badly today and the director gave
her a scolding, she was simmering with resentment. Her assistant managed to offend her at the worst
possible timing. Shi Wei was terribly upset and immediately yelled at her assistant.
“I told you to bring me water, not try to burn my tongue! Drink it! Show me if it burns your tongue!” Shi
Wei screeched as she flung the cup at her assistant.
Shi Wei was resting under a tree while the other actors were still acting. When they turned to see what
themotion was about, all they saw was Shi Wei flinging the cup at her assistant.
“Be careful!”
