I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 392
Every single word Shi Nuan spoke was nothing but the truth. It gave everyone – especially Shi Wei and
Jiang Yu – a hard p in the face. If they had not sabotaged and plotted against Shi Nuan back then,
she might not have had the chance to meet Fu Chengyan, let alone getting married to himter.
Thus, Shi Nuan’s sarcastic remark was actually true to some extent – she was somewhat grateful to
them. After all, without all the dirty stuff they had done to her , she might not have been able to move
on from the breakup with Fu Xicheng. She would not have met Fu Chengyan too.
They had hurt her so deeply that she had never thought of the possibility of patching things up with
them. Just as she was struggling the hardest in life, Fu Chengyan appeared. It was impossible not to
fall in love with him because he really treated her like a princess.
Jiang Yu’s expression hardened. She had a pressing urge to give Shi Nuan a piece of her mind, but
she dared not do so in the presence of Fu Chengyan. Having no other choice, she secretly harbored
the grudge against Shi Nuan and made up her mind to teach Shi Nuan a lesson the next time when Fu
Chengyan was not around.
Shi Nuan understood Jiang Yu too well to know what was on her mind. Therefore, she knew she should
make full use of the asion to humiliate her because she knew that the woman wouldn’t dare to do
anything to her in Fu Chengyan’s presence.
When the waiter came to serve the food, Shi Nuan made use of the opportunity to go to the washroom.
Immediately, Shi Wei left her seat and followed suit. Shi Nuan couldn’t help but sneer at Shi Wei’s
behavior.
She knew her sister wouldn’t be able to stand the idea of being overshadowed by her. As expected, her
sister entered the washroom right after her and immediately locked the door. “Nuan!”
Shi Nuan cast her a sideways nce. “Wei, how can I help you?”
Biting her lips, Shi Wei ventured, “Are you and Fu Chengyan really married? I mean… Do you guys
really have a marriage certificate?”
“Wei, do you think we’re merely putting on an act? Should I get Yan to bring our marriage certificate
over here to show you?” Shi Nuan raised her brows while observing the hesitation on Shi Wei’s face
with amusement.
Shi Wei shook her head. “No, that’s not necessary. I’m just… I’m just really surprised to know that you
actually got married to Fu Chengyan so early. Aren’t you…” Although she did notplete her
question, Shi Nuan understood what her sister meant. Obviously, Shi Wei still found it hard to believe
that Fu Chengyan and her were to married each other.
With a breezy smile, Shi Nuan looked at Shi Wei and asked in a rxed tone, “What are you trying to
say?”
“Nuan, I’m very sorry for what I’ve done to you. I really didn’t mean it. I just couldn’t help myself to fall in
love with Xicheng during the time you were away. Xicheng couldn’t bear with the long-distance
rtionship with you, and that was why…”
“You don’t have to keep on bringing that up because it’s all but a thing in the past. Besides, your
rtionship with Fu Xicheng really doesn’t bother me anymore.”
“You might not be bothered by it, but what about Fu Chengyan? Are you sure he doesn’t mind it?” Shi
Wei was doubtful on that point. In her opinion, a man like Fu Chengyan would not befortable to
know that his wife had dated Fu Xicheng before and that there was even a slim chance that she still
harbored feelings for him.
“Does Fu Chengyan know about your past rtionship with Xicheng? Could he…”Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“Wei.” Shi Nuan cut her off with a sudden chuckle. “Seems like you have forgotten that you’re still an
artist under Xinhuang? For your information, I already married Yan when you first joined Xinhuang.
Also, I already mentioned just now that you were the one who brought Yan and I together. So, of
course, Yan knows about my past rtionship with Fu Xicheng. Perhaps, you will get a clearer idea by
start recalling things that had happened at that time. Don’t you find it fishy that Yan would always be by
my side whenever you bumped into me? Or, can’t you notice how helpful he had been to me without
asking anything in return?”
Shi Nuan shed her a smirk. As she fumbled for something in her bag, she maintained aposed
expression on her face. In the meantime, Shi Wei’s face was contorted with utter consternation.
All of a sudden, shbacks of all the encounters she had had with Shi Nuan started flooding her mind.
Every now and then, she would see Shi Nuan with Fu Chengyan and Su Shaoqing; they always looked
like her guardian angels.
“Seriously? You already got married Fu Chengyan at that time, but you watched me embarrassing
myself like a clown?” Shi Wei eximed. Never had it urred to her that Shi Nuan would turn out to
be such a scheming person.
Suddenly, she thought of all her previous interactions with Shi Nuan. More often than not, Shi Nuan
would always hold back her anger under all circumstances. Shi Nuan had never been this aggressive
before.
With a faint smile, Shi Nuan responded, “Of course, you’re free to interpret it that way. Yet, I’m not
interested in wasting my time dwelling on the past. In fact, as long as you don’t cross me, I might not
even have the time to bother about your business!”
“You… Shi Nuan, do you really think you’ve got all the bragging rights now that you’re Fu Chengyan’s
wife? Have you forgotten about Shen Qianan? She used to be Fu Chengyan’s fiancée, and she even
gave birth to his child. What makes you better than her when you’re just her recement? Are you
naive enough to think that Fu Chengyan really loves you?”
“Haha!”
“Why are youughing? Did I say anything wrongly? Shi Nuan, I don’t even know why you’re gloating.
Let me get straight to the point with you here. If you’re smart enough, you really should work together
with us. Now that Fu Chengyan still has feelings for you and has yet to dump you, you should make
use of the chance and rake in as much money from him as you can.
At least you’re left with something by the time he decides to dump you, aren’t you?” Shi Wei did not
think there was anything wrong with her mindset, especially after she met Shen Qianan in person. It
cemented her opinion that Fu Chengyan would definitely leave Shi Nuan one day because Shi Nuan
was the spitting image of Shen Qianan.
“Nothing. Actually, I couldn’t agree with you more.” Smiling, Shi Nuan sauntered toward the sink to
wash her hands. She then turned to face Shi Wei. “It’s a must for every woman to have that kind of
awareness. Wei, you should watch out too. You know, Fu Xicheng used to date me. What if he regrets
two-timing me when he realizes I’m so much better than you? Do you think he will ask to divorce you?”
Looking amused, she concluded, “In fact, I think that’s highly likely to happen!”
“You…”
“Wei, I think you’ve got a point. It’s always good to n ahead, don’t you think? Actually, you should
heed that advice too! Generally speaking, men are all fickle-minded and unpredictable. I still remember
that Fu Xicheng had once promised me he would love me forever, but what happened in the end? He
went on to marry you, didn’t he?”
“Shi Nuan, you shouldn’t me me when you were the one who failed to keep your man!” Shi Wei
would always freak out whenever Shi Nuan mentioned Fu Xicheng. She glowered at Shi Nuan and
yelled, “I’m the woman he loves!”
“I know; that’s why I’m envious of you having a man who loves you so much,” Shi Nuan answered
perfunctorily. “Look, I think it’s really time for us to head back to the room.”
“Shi Nuan, stop right there!” Shi Wei seized one of her arms to stop her from leaving. “Can’t you see
I’m still talking to you? Before Fu Chengyan resents you and thinks of getting rid of you, you’d better
make sure he gives you a share of his wealth! I’m telling you this for your own good because you won’t
be pleased to be left with nothing after he dumps you!”
“Let me go!” Shi Nuan’s gaze darkened as she tried to shove Shi Wei’s hand away. Staring at her
grimly, she snapped, “It seems like I should thank you for your constant reminder of how Fu Chengyan
will dump me one day! Are you secretly hoping that will happen soon? Let me make this very clear to
you, Shi Wei. I only decided to be here for the sake of Grandpa and Granddad. Do you actually think
we’re here because of you?”
Shi Nuan snorted icily. “My rtionship with Yan and my future have nothing to do with you. Are you
guys trying to use me as a tool to gain an advantage over Yan? Dream on!”
Shi Nuan gave up trying to be pleasant. She went on to rebuke Shi Wei mercilessly, “I’m only willing to
be here because of Grandpa and Granddad. After this, I won’t force myself to spend time with any of
you!”
With that, she opened the door and marched out of the washroom. Shi Wei, who refused to give up,
caught up to her. Her face was twisted with rage as she seethed, “Shi Nuan, how dare you be so
arrogant? You know what? You’re nothing but a pitiful orphan who was abandoned by your family!
You aren’t part of the Shi family, and you aren’t my parent’s biological child at all! My parents only took
you in and raised you like one of their own purely because they sympathized with you! Do you think
you can get rid of us after getting married? You’re an ungrateful bastard who has no idea how to
appreciate people who took care of you for years!”
In a fit of rage, she blurted everything out without much thought. Yet, she regretted saying those things
almost immediately. There was no way she could retract her remark, so she stared straight into Shi
Nuan’s eyes, seeing no point to cower in fear.
Contrary to her expectation, Shi Nuan did not look horrified or surprised to learn the shocking truth.
Instead, she was staring at her so calmly as though she had long learned about the secret of her
identity way before this.
Shi Wei looked dazedly at Shi Nuan, her lips pursed and her brows furrowed in confusion. “Are you
losing your mind? Didn’t you hear what I said just now?”
Shi Nuan smirked. “You’re the one losing your mind here. Of course, I heard what you said.” She
chuckled. “What’s the matter? Are you puzzled by my reaction?”
“A-Aren’t you surprised to find that out at all?” Her reaction was not how Shi Wei had imagined before.
She had expected to see Shi Nuan look shaken, gob smacked, or even horrified when she learned the
truth. She knew Shi Nuan had always been a person who cared about her family a great deal ever
since she was a little girl. Shi Nuan was desperate for love from Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu.
Therefore, she always made sure she behaved the best in their presence. Because of that, Shi Wei
thought Shi Nuan would experience a mental breakdown after realizing that she was actually an
orphan. However, nothing of that sort took ce as Shi Nuan only looked at her with calmness and
composure.
“You…”
“Wei, care to share what sort of reaction you expected to see from me? Should I be wailing and yelling
as I refuse to ept the truth? Should I be asking Fu Chengyan’s help to salvage my rtionship with
my parents as well as the entire Shi family? Do you actually expect Fu Chengyan to offer some
advantage to the Shi family so that I can still be epted as part of the family?”
Shi Wei stiffened with an extremely sullen expression on her face. Shi Nuan’s guess was spot-on. That
was the exact reason why Shi Wei felt so embarrassed at the moment. “Don’t you feel sad at all to
learn about the truth?”
“Sad? Perhaps I did feel that some time ago. However, it’s impossible to stay upset for too long
because one will get used to it as time passes.” Suddenly, something struck Shi Nuan. “Oh, by the way,
I forgot to tell you something just now. Actually…” She took her phone out from her handbag. “As Yan
and I are still newlyweds, we’re basically inseparable. So, I’ve been on an ongoing voice call with him
since I was in the toilet just now. Wei, I don’t think you mind it, right?”
