I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 363
Shi Nuan’s lips curled up as her gazeid upon the ring. “How did you know, Ms. Shen? Your eyes sure
are sharp! No one has ever noticed that I am a married woman.” As Shi Nuan spoke, she could see the
color on Shen Qianan’s face fading out. She then asked, “Ms. Shen, are you sure you’re fine? You look
very pale. Please don’t faint on your first day at work! It will not look good for thepany!”
“Oh, I…” Shen Qianan didn’t expect Shi Nuan to be such an eloquent speaker. The files on Shi Nuan
seemed to have described her as a different person. Shi Nuan has been bullied a lot in the Shi family.
Her sister has even stolen her boyfriend from her. How is she still so…
“Ah! I forgot that I came here to ask Mr. Fu for help!” Right after speaking, Shi Nuan walked past Shen
Qianan toward Fu Chengyan’s office. She knocked on the door gently. A voice came from inside. “Who
is it?”
“Mr. Fu, it’s me!” Shi Nuan replied. “It’s Shi Nuan from the Project Management Department!”
“Come in.”
As Shi Nuan entered the room, Fu Chengyan was putting down his pen. He rose from his seat and
froze in ce for a second when he saw the box of pastries in Shi Nuan’s hand. “What’s the matter?”
Shi Nuan pressed her lips together and stood motionless at her spot. Her eyes were fluttering at Fu
Chengyan. Fu Chengyan couldn’t tell whether she was happy or not.
Fu Chengyan furrowed his brows. He ambled over to Shi Nuan’s side. Shi Nuan took a small step back
when she saw Fu Chengyan getting close to her. She wanted to stay a distance away from him.
Fu Chengyan’s torso stiffened up for a second. His arm that was reaching out for Shi Nuan just a
second ago hung in midair. If I can’t tell what Shi Nuan is feeling at the moment just by looking at her
face, then the time we spent together is all wasted.
Fu Chengyan knew Shi Nuan. She would nevere looking for him at work for personal matters,
unless… “Have you seen her before?”Shi Nuan knew which
‘her’ Fu Chengyan was referring to.
She didn’t reply to him right away. Her bright eyes were fixated on him. A minuteter, Fu Chengyan
sighed. “Are you here to question me?”
Shi Nuan still kept mum. Fu Chengyan massaged a spot between his brows. “I am the one who’s
supposedly at fault here. Aren’t you going to do anything to me?”
Shi Nuan’s expression softened. She remained silent for a while more before passing the box of
pastries in her hand to him. “Since I made this for you, then you must eat it.”
Fu Chengyan lifted both of his brows in confusion. Still, he took over the box from Shi Nuan’s hands. “Is
it crushed?”
“Yeah, I identally dropped it just now.” Shi Nuan nodded and raised her head to look at Fu
Chengyan. “Why didn’t you tell me that the two of us look exactly the same?”
Fu Chengyan wriggled his brows. To him, the answer to Shi Nuan’s question was simple but it could
not be verbalized bluntly. To his knowledge of women, they were very sensitive when it came to other
women. Once a man said something wrong, they would zero down on it until they got a satisfactory
answer.
“Fu Chengyan, answer me!”
“What kind of response are you expecting from me?” Fu Chengyan raised a finger to point at the rest
area in his office. The couple made their way there. “You guys do look alike, but you two are not exactly
the same. Understand?”
Shi Nuan wriggled her lips and told herself to keep a cold head no matter what.
“I know what you want to ask me. Did I marry you because of her? Is it because you two look alike that
I married you?” said Fu Chengyan
Shi Nuan tightened her fists. Her face did not have much life in them.
She could act tough in front of others, but in front of Fu Chengyan, she did not have the strength to do
so.
“Remember what I told you yesterday? I said, don’t listen to what other people say.”
“Then, should I believe in your words?”
Fu Chengyan’s dark eyes met Shi Nuan’s gaze. “Do you have faith in me?”
Shi Nuan bit her lip. “I don’t know how to answer your question. I just want to know, did you marry me
because of me alone, and not anyone else?”
Fu Chengyan chuckled as if he had just heard something ridiculous. He sat down next to Shi Nuan and
pinched her nose. “Yes. I love you for who you are.”
Shi Nuanughed. “Alright, I believe in you. If you are lying, please lie to me for the rest of your life.”
She smiled broadly at Fu Chengyan. “If you can’t lie to me forever, then please tell me the truth now. I
am not someone who will cling blindly to another man, you hear me?”
“Yes, mdy!” Fu Chengyan nodded. As Shi Nuan was about to leave, Fu Chengyan got on his feet
and grabbed Shi Nuan’s hand. “Do you also think the two of you are alike?”
Fu Chengyan’s question caught Shi Nuan by surprise. She shook her head at once. “I am myself and
no one else.”
Fu Chengyan grinned. “Good that you know that. You should know that I am someone who will never
settle for anything. If I really have a thing for Shen Qianan, I wouldn’t have married you in the first ce
because I’ll pursue her until she’s mine. But that didn’t happen. You are mine. She isn’t. Thus, you are
not a recement.” Fu Chengyan prodded Shi Nuan’s cheeks with his knuckles. “It’s not like anyone
can rece you too.”
Shi Nuan’s lips curled up into a beautiful crescent. “You better remember what you said.”
“Yes! I will remember it for the rest of my life!” Fu Chengyan ced his hand along Shi Nuan’s shoulder
de. “I think you have to use your heart to learn what you are to me, and not just by your eyes.”
Shi Nuan took a deep breath. “I’ll try my best, but I am still a human after all. So don’t you dare lie to
me, Fu Chengyan!”
Shi Nuan left Fu Chengyan’s office. She took another breather before she left the twenty-seventh floor.
Meanwhile, in one corner, Shen Qianan was peeping at Shi Nuan as she left. There was an
unfathomable expression on her face.
“Ms. Shen, have you made a copy of the files I wanted?”
Mai Qi appeared out of nowhere and queried Shen Qianan, who turned over in an instant. “Oh, I
haven’t finished it. I’m not very familiar with the photocopy machine.”

Shen Qianan was a pampered kid back home. Growing up, she didn’t have to do any chores or run any
errands. Even when she was with Fu Chengyan and went overseas, she also didn’t have to do
anything that was trivial, like what Mai Qi asked her to do. Even though she was chased out of her
family, the Shen family still treated her well. Every year they would still send her money. She and her
son didn’t have to worry about not making ends meet at all. The only thing Shen Qianan couldn’t
ept was the fact that she could not return.
As a result, Shen Qianan couldn’t handle thebor she had to do at Shengyuan.
“Yan likes to drink coffee in the morning. How about I go make Yan a cup of coffee?”
“It’s okay, Ms. Shen!” Mai Qi stopped Shen Qianan from going to the pantry. She then responded with a
smile, “Mr. Fu doesn’t drink coffee in the morning.”
“Wait, but I remember he used to…”
“Mrs. Fu said coffee doesn’t sit well with Mr. Fu’s stomach. Now, Mr. Fu doesn’t drink coffee anymore.”
Mai Qi spoke with the smile still on her face. “It is your first day at work, Ms. Shen. It’s okay if you don’t
know about this.”
“But I…”
“Also, since we’re in the office, it’s better if you address Mr. Fu in a more formal manner. If not you
could be penalized for being indecorous.” Mai Qi took the files from Shen Qianan’s hands. “Anyway,
you don’t have to prepare any food or drinks for Mr. Fu. That’s actually my job, haha! By the way, you
can only enter Mr. Fu’s office if he calls for you. Remember this, alright? Okay, now let’s head over to
the photocopy machine. I’ll show you how to use it.”
Mai Qi was a bright employee, which was why Fu Chengyan kept her at his side for so many years.
In fact, Mai Qi knew what kind of attitude Fu Chengyan had toward Shen Qianan. Naturally, she
wouldn’t let the woman get close to him.
Even if Shen Qianan were displeased, there was nothing she could say. Mai Qi was her superior. If she
didn’t want her close to Fu Chengyan, then it must be an order from the man himself.
Shen Qianan clenched her fists. The thought of Shi Nuan was unsettling to her. It was natural for
anyone to be disturbed by the knowledge that they had a doppelganger. To make things worse for
Shen Qianan, Shi Nuan was Fu Chengyan’s wife.
Mai Qi could read Shen Qianan’s subtle expression from her body movements. She shook her head
internally. Just now, when Shi Nuan was talking to Shen Qianan, Mai Qi could see that there was a
world of difference between Shi Nuan and Shen Qianan.
After teaching Shen Qianan how to use the photocopy machine, she took the photocopied documents
to Fu Chengyan’s office right away. “Mr. Fu, just now when Ms. Shi was here, she bumped into Shen
Qianan. Because of that, they…” Mai Qi recounted everything she saw to Fu Chengyan. The man
didn’t say anything when she was done with her words. He only asked her to leave. But right before
she stepped out of the room, he gave her an order. “Give her more work. Don’t the secretaries have a
lot of grunt work to do? Hand anything you guys can’t finish to her.”
“Alright.” Mai Qi tucked her lips in before saying, “If there isn’t anything else, I’ll get back to my work
now.”
Fu Chengyan twiddled with his brows after Mai Qi left the room. Then, he took out a set of files from a
drawer.
Those files contained the findings of Zhou Zheng. If they were true, Shen Qianan stayed in C Country
for a period of time before moving to K Nation to settle down there for the long term. Her social circle
was big. She met all sorts of people, but she just couldn’t find a job. As for Shen Qianan’s source of
ie, other than the money she received from the Shen family, there was another unknown source
Zhou Zheng was unable to track down.
Fu Chengyan pinched his forehead. After a long while of staring at the document, he returned the files
to their original position.
Why is it K Nation again?
Knock knock! Someone was at the door. “Mr. Fu!”
“Come in!”
Zhou Zheng entered Fu Chengyan’s office. “Mr. Fu, this is the information gathered from K Nation. It’s
quite simr to the files that I gave you yesterday, but it’s still different. ording to this file, after
returning to her home country, Shen Qianan did visit C Country before going back to K Nation. She
then got in touch with Old Master. Old Master also visited Shen Qianan for quite a few times, and all of
these took ce around the time after your wedding.”
Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes. “Then what about Yu?”
“Oh, there isn’t a lot of information on Yu too. It is only known that he was born in Santiago Hospital. A
female doctor named Taylor was the gynecologist in charge. Even though Ms. Shen was by herself
when she was giving birth to Yu, someone was with her during her pregnancy checkups.”
“Was it a man?”
“Yes!”
Fu Chengyan’s dagger-like eyes were glowing with excitement. His slender fingers picked up a piece of
paper and his gazeid upon a portrait printed on it. It was indeed a picture of Shen Qianan in the
hospital. “Who is that guy?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Fu. I wasn’t able to find out more about that man.” Zhou Zheng lowered his head as if he
were awaiting his punishment.
Fu Chengyan waved his hand dismissively. “Just continue with your investigation. Focus on C Country
and K Nation. Also, check on Shen Shixiu too while you’re at it.”
“Shen Shixiu? The brother of Ms. Shen?” Zhou Zheng was flummoxed as Fu Chengyan rarely
interacted with anyone from the Shen family. Fu Chengyan did not know Shen Shixiu well. The only
time the two of them had something to do with each other was because of Shen Qianan, which was
three years ago.
Zhou Zheng had met Shen Shixiu before. He was a dangerous man.
