I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 239


    “But…” Shi Nuan wanted to protest, yet she decided against it when she saw the emotionless


    expression on Pei Jingxiu’s face.


    She gulped as she looked at the two lifeless bodies on the ground. It was then that she realized how


    fragile life was. They had just been breathing down her neck a while ago but now are no longer part of


    this world.


    It wasn’t that she was a saint, but she had never seen anything like this in real life. Nothing could have


    prepared her for this. Even if she had seen it before on TV or read about it in novels, those were all


    fake. Besides, she didn’t witness it with her own eyes. But now that it unfolded in front of her, she was


    indeed frightened.


    Shi Nuan stared at Pei Jingxiu. She couldn’t understand what went through his mind, given the fact that


    he could still remain calm under those circumstances.


    Pei Jingxiu narrowed his eyes and looked at Shi Nuan. He realized that he had really given her a fright.


    He paused for a moment before apologizing, “I’m sorry that I frightened you.”


    Shi Nuan nodded but then shook her head immediately. “Pei, I know that you wanted to save me. But,


    you killed them because of me, I…what about them? All the security cameras here would have


    captured what happened. Pei…you…”


    “Don’t worry!” Pei Jingxiu was relieved when he heard what Shi Nuan said. He was worried that she


    would be too stunned to react. However, she seemed to be brave enough. “Someone will take care of


    it.”


    “But…” Shi Nuan pointed at the men on the floor. “Will you really be fine?”


    Pei Jingxiu was about to reply when his phone rang. It was Ning Xi who called. “How did it go?”


    “All the security footage around you has been wiped. But time is of the essence. You will need to leave


    immediately,” Ning Xi exined as she looked at them through her screen. “Someone will clean up


    after you!”


    Following that, she added, “There’s an ambush along the way to Fu Chengyan’s house. It appears that


    someone really wants him dead. Both of you should stay away from there!”


    “Alright!” Pei Jingxiu took a look at Shi Nuan. “Let’s go. I’ll send you back!”


    “Sure!” Shi Nuan nodded obediently. “About them…will you really be alright? Pei, you have to be


    honest with me.”


    “Yes, I’m sure of that. Let’s get in the car!” Shi Nuan got into the front passenger seat. Pei Jingxiu


    looked at her and said, “There’s an ambush on the way to Wutong Residence. You can’t go back yet


    until all the threats have been removed!”


    “Then…” Shi Nuan hesitated. “Pei, I don’t have anywhere else to go. Also, what about Yan? What


    happened to him? Where is he? Given that I’m being hunted, he must be in danger too!” Shi Nuan’s


    face went pale as she spoke. “Pei, do you know where he is?”


    Pei Jingxiu raised his eyebrow and smiled as he reassured her, “Don’t worry, there is hardly anyone


    who can beat Yan given how tough he is.”


    “Didn’t the guy just now say that they were from the Qin n? Who are they and where are they from?


    What do those assassins want with Yan…”


    “I don’t really know the details. Perhaps you can ask Chengyan when you see him. I’ll take you back to


    my ce first as Chengyan has a house there too.”Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    “But isn’t Mr. George staying there?” Shi Nuan asked. “It isn’t appropriate for me to go over there now.


    Pei, I’m fine. Please send me to…”


    “You will either go to my ce or Shaoqing’s. Chengyan wille to pick you up when he’s done!” Pei


    Jingxiu said as his expression grew increasingly stern. “Chengyan asked me to take care of you, so I


    have to make sure that you’re safe.”


    “Alright, but Yan…”


    “Shaoqing and Li Heng are on their way to him, so you can stop worrying now.”


    Shi Nuan nodded. “Alright then, I’ll go back with you first!”


    Right after Pei Jingxiu and Shi Nuan left, a bunch of men arrived to clear Wenjiang Street of the debris.


    They also removed the dead bodies.


    Fu Chengyan kept driving until he was on the outskirts of the city and only stopped when he reached


    an abandoned factory. He turned off his car lights and opened the window. As he waited, he held a


    cigarette between his fingers but didn’t light it up.


    He then saw two men and a woman get down from the car that was following him. They had weapons


    in their hands and approached him slowly.


    He squinted as he fiddled with a lighter with his other hand, flicking it on and off. Only when their leader


    was close enough did he open the door and spring out of the car.


    The three assassins couldn’t see what he was doing clearly. When they finally realized what was going


    on, Fu Chengyan had flung the lighter at them while he threw a kick towards their leader. The lighter


    ignited over their heads with a loud bang. None of them could see what Fu Chengyan was doing. All


    they could hear was a loud noise as a bullet pierced the lighter and caused it to explode.


    “Ah!” Their leader was stunned as his face was hurt from the explosion. He struggled to pick himself up


    while his two otherpanions were also injured, though their injuries weren’t serious.


    “Boss, are you alright?” The female assassin helped her leader up.


    “Fu Chengyan, I’m going to get you for this!” The man pushed away hispanion as he raised his


    gun and started shooting at Fu Chengyan. However, Fu Chengyan evaded his shots by rolling over the


    roof of the car to take cover on the other side of the car.


    He had a small pistol in his hand. After taking a quick aim at the leader’s forehead, he fired a shot right


    in the center of his head.


    In the midst of the confusion, Fu Chengyan shot at the other male assassin and killed him. Now, only


    the female assassin was left. However, Fu Chengyan had ran out of bullets.


    It wasn’t a habit of his to bring a gun with him. He was just taking precautions given the frequent news


    he received from K Nation. Nevertheless, he didn’t expect that he had to use it.


    The female assassin did not expect Fu Chengyan to be so skillful. Two of herpanions had already


    been shot dead before they could do anything. She realized that he had unbelievably quick reflexes


    and wasn’t to be trifled with.


    The man who Fu Chengyan had just shot was among the top three assassins in the Qin n called


    Qin Qi. Qin Qi’s marksmanship was renowned within the n, and no one could shoot more urately


    than him. Ironically, he was shot right in the head by Fu Chengyan instead.


    The female assassin waited for a while, but there was no sign of any movement from Fu Chengyan.


    “Fu Chengyan, I know you are out of bullets! Only one of us will walk out alive from here. I’m going to


    kill you to avenge mypanions!”


    “Is that so?” Fu Chengyan held the gun in his hand as he racked his brain for ideas. He squinted and


    took out his phone from his pocket. Li Heng was still on the line and sent him the female assassin’s


    location.


    Fu Chengyan put his phone back. When he felt that the female assassin was starting to feel frustrated,


    he said, “If you hadn’te to get rid of me, I wouldn’t have the opportunity to kill you. Now that I’m


    going to die soon, can you at least tell me who paid you to kill me? I just don’t want to die without


    knowing!”


    “I’ll tell you since you want to know about it so badly. Our employer is from your own country. He has


    paid a lot of money for us to take your life. So, don’t me us as no one is going to turn down that


    much money.”


    “Give me a name!” Fu Chengyan yelled impatiently. “I’m running out of time to talk to you!”


    Just when the female assassin was distracted, Fu Chengyan dived over the car roof towards her. No


    matter how fast her reflexes were, they were still not enough to beat Fu Chengyan. With one hand, he


    grabbed the assassin’s gun and unloaded the magazine from it. His other hand then took out a military


    dagger and slit her throat before she could say anything.


    She stared at him with her eyes widened in shock. She tried to cover her neck with one hand while her


    other hand pointed at him with disbelief. “You…you…”


    She couldn’t believe how fast he was, given that there was no chance for her to react at all. Fu


    Chengyan had not only managed to remove her gun but also killed her at the same time.


    Fu Chengyan picked himself up and nced at his jacket, which was now stained with blood. He took it


    off and carried it in his hand. After that, he looked down at the female assassin who died with her eyes


    open and said, “I never liked anyone who talked too much!” In fact, he wasn’t really interested to know


    who wanted him dead.


    “You cane out now!”


    “Tsk Tsk!”


    Su Shaoqing couldn’t help but shake his head as he held a gun in his hand. “My word! Chengyan,


    you’re overdoing it here. I came all the way here just for you, but you managed to handle it


    singlehandedly. What did you need me for then? Are you trying to waste my time?”


    Su Shaoqing nced at the three bodies from the corner of his eye. “Not bad.”


    Fu Chengyan shot a nce back at Su Shaoqing. “Aren’t you alreadyte?”


    “Of course, do you know how difficult it was to find this ce? But it’s really a good idea to get them out


    to a deserted ce like this. Tsk tsk, who did you offend recently?”


    Fu Chengyan wasn’t bothered to entertain Su Shaoqing. He took another look at them and made sure


    that he didn’t touch them at all before leaving.


    Su Shaoqing rushed up to him when he saw that he was leaving. “Hey, don’t you want to do something


    about them? At least…” Su Shaoqing swallowed his remaining words as he knew how Fu Chengyan


    did things. He wasn’t going to do anything that he wasn’t confident of. If he dared to walk away, it


    meant that he didn’t leave any evidence behind.


    “By the way, Li Heng said that there’s an ambush near your house. I’ve already called Zhou Zheng. He


    is on his way to deal with it together with Liang Lin and Jiang Hu.”


    Fu Chengyan closed his car door but didn’t start the engine. Su Shaoqing’s words reminded him of


    something important. He nced at him and asked, “How about May?”


    “Tsk tsk, even under such circumstances, you can still rub it in on a poor single guy like me.” Su


    Shaoqing sighed. However, when he saw that Fu Chengyan still had that murderous expression on, he


    stopped fooling around. “Don’t worry. Aren’t you confident in Pei Jingxiu’s abilities? No one can get


    past him. By the way, he just called and said that there’s an ambush near your house. So, he has taken


    Mrs. Fu back to his ce.”


    Fu Chengyan nodded and went on to floor the elerator.


    Su Shaoqing gaped as he was left in the dust when Fu Chengyan sped off. He muttered to himself,


    “Hey hey, Chengyan. You always prioritize your wife over your friends. I just rushed all the way here to


    save you, and yet you left just like that. Chengyan…”


    As Su Shaoqing wasining, Fu Chengyan’s car was no longer anywhere to be seen.


    Su Shaoqing couldn’t help but roll his eyes. He then nced at the three dead bodies. “You guys are


    such an unlucky bunch. Why did youe all the way here in search of trouble? Other than getting


    yourselves killed, I still have to bury you. The worse thing is that I’m not even getting paid!”
