I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 417
Fu Chengyan continued to give her a few more cups of water. It was not until she insisted that she
couldn’t drink anymore that he stopped. “Who did you see today, Grandpa?” Fu Chengyan asked.
Upon hearing that question, both Jiang Shizheng and Shi Nuan turned to look at him. Then, Shi Nuan
blinked her eyes and asked, “Who did he see?”
Shi Nuan darted a nce at Fu Chengyan and then at Jiang Shizheng. “Did anyone visit you today,
Grandpa?”
With a grim look on his face, Jiang Shizheng stared into Fu Chengyan’s eyes for a long time before
shaking his head. “No. I’m just an old man. Other than the asional visits from you two, no one
remembers me.”
Jiang Shizheng seemed to be mocking himself, but in fact, he was warning Fu Chengyan. He knew Fu
Chengyan was a smart man, but he couldn’t let Shi Nuan know about his previous encounter.
Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes knowingly. “You’re wrong, Grandpa. You had so many outstanding
students back then. I don’t believe that they would note to see you!”
“Did a student visit today, Grandpa?” Shi Nuan grinned happily. “I still remember many students of
yoursing to see you when I was still going to school. Most of Grandpa’s students are insightful and
good!” Shi Nuan looked at Fu Chengyan as she spoke. Thetter narrowed his eyes and couldn’t help
but pinch her nose.
Shi Nuan pped his hand away. “How dare you bully me in front of Grandpa!”
“Alright. You’re not kids anymore!” Jiang Shizheng couldn’t help but shake his head. “It was just a
former student of mine, whom you don’t even know!” Jiang Shizheng said, making it clear that he didn’t
want to continue with the topic.
With an unknown gleam in his eyes, Fu Chengyan did not continue asking more questions. Instead, he
engaged in academic discussion with Jiang Shizheng. Although Jiang Shizheng was old and no longer
taught, there was no end to learning, and he couldn’t remain idle for even a moment.
Jiang Shizheng went to Jing Universityst time because the principal of Jing University had sent him
an invitation and wanted to hire him as their lecturer again.
Jiang Shizheng only promised them to consider it, but they kept urging him. In fact, this was more or
less because all the students under Jiang Shizheng had be sessful. They wanted to use his
name to associate themselves with these schrs, particrly a bigshot like Fu Chengyan. This was
also the reason why Jiang Shizheng had been reluctant to agree to the offer.

Speaking of this issue, Jiang Shizheng heaved a sigh. “The ethos nowadays is different from when I
was teaching back then!”
“The times are changing, Professor!” Fu Chengyan quipped.
After hearing the way Fu Chengyan addressed him, Jiang Shizheng was slightly taken aback. He then
laughed out loud. “So you’re saying I’m getting old and may be unsuitable for these times.”
Fu Chengyan raised his eyebrows nomittally.
Shi Nuan felt a little drowsy while listening to Fu Chengyan and Jiang Shizheng’s conversation.
In fact, her lethargy had started way before this; she would also have a bad appetite at times. She was
unaware of her pregnancy back then, so she didn’t know the cause of such lethargy. She had thought
she was simply too tired from work. Now that she knew that she was pregnant, she turned bold and
would sleep whenever she was sleepy.
Fu Chengyan looked at her as she nodded off. Just as her head was about to fall forward, he reacted
quickly to support it and ced it gently on his thigh.
She looked at him in a daze, blinked, and rubbed her eyes cluelessly. “I’m so sleepy, Yan!”
“Sleep for a while then. Be good!” Fu Chengyan found a morefortable position and got a pillow to
make her morefortable. Shi Nuan thenid on his thigh and drifted off.
As Jiang Shizheng watched the affectionate interaction between Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan, there
was a glint in his eyes before he let out a helpless sigh. “I know your feelings for Nuan. I’m your
teacher, and so I know I can trust you!”
“You’re right, Grandpa!”
Jiang Shizheng shook his head. “Take good care of Nuan. I know you will definitely protect her well!”
Fu Chengyan’s eyes were shimmering. “Who did you see today?”
Meanwhile, Jiang Shizheng’s eyes also held a glint of something. “Alright. Let Nuan sleep for a while! I
always get Aunt Fei to clean her room. You should take her there!”
Hearing this, Fu Chengyan nodded, then carefully supported Shi Nuan’s body and carried her. He did
everything lightly for fear that he would wake her up.
After putting her on the bed, Fu Chengyan closed the door gently and headed to Jiang Shizheng’s
study.
At that moment, Jiang Shizheng had already taken out the chessboard. When he saw Fu Chengyan
coming in, he beckoned him. “Come here!”
The man walked over as told. Upon seeing the chessboard, he set it up with Jiang Shizheng. “You want
to y a game with me, Grandpa?”
Jiang Shizheng nodded. “ck or white?”
“As usual, ck for me!”
Fu Chengyan took the ck pieces over. “You go first, Professor!”
When Jiang Shizheng heard the form of address Fu Chengyan used, he knew that thetter was really
going to y chess with him, so he nodded. “Just ask whatever you want to!”
“If I win this game, you have to tell me whether May had an ident in the past or if she has suffered
from some memory loss, okay?” Fu Chengyan asked.
Hearing his words, Jiang Shizheng froze as a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes. “How did you
know about that?”
Fu Chengyan caught his drift.
Jiang Shizheng seemed to be taking a walk down memoryne as he added, “It’s not like I can’t tell
you about this, so we don’t have to wait until the game is over.”
Fu Chengyan nodded, signaling Jiang Shizheng to go on with what he had to say.
Jiang Shizheng thought for a while and sighed. “It happened when Nuan was about fifteen years old.
You had gone abroad then. She did not return home after school one day. No one in the Shi family
knew where she had gone until someone from the hospital called the next day…” Jiang Shizheng said
while choking up, “Nuan was covered in cuts and bruises. When she was sent to the hospital, she had
lost consciousness. No one knew what had happened. She was found floating by the river. When she
was rescued, the person thought she had died.”
As Jiang Shizheng spoke, he noticed a trace of astonishment in Fu Chengyan’s eyes. “Nuan doesn’t
know about this. She merely thought she had a bad illness. The old man from the Shi family and I told
them clearly that they shouldn’t let Nuan know about this.”
Fu Chengyan knitted his brows. “So May has really lost her memory?”
“Notpletely. She just forgot about things that had happened during that period of time!” Jiang
Shizheng thought for a while and added, “I thought I didn’t need to tell her about the truth since
everything was alright!”
Fu Chengyan raised a corner of his lips in a wry smile. “But she forgot about me, Professor!”
Jiang Shizheng nodded. “I know. Since then, she has never mentioned you again. I thought that since
you had gone abroad, maybe you and she…” Jiang Shizheng paused midsentence when he met Fu
Chengyan’s eyes.
Although Fu Chengyan was his student, he was still intimidated by the strong presence exuded by the
man. After all, Fu Chengyan was no longer an underage student like he had been back then.
“You can guess what happenedter. Nuan forgot about the things during that period, but she
remembers everyone except you!” As Jiang Shizheng spoke, he clearly saw the change in the
expression on Fu Chengyan’s face. “Later, she met Fu Xicheng in university, and the two started
dating. They were initially going to get married, but unexpectedly, something like that happenedter. I
think you know what happened after that!”
“So, if Fu Xicheng hadn’t cheated on her, would you have allowed May to marry him?” Fu Chengyan
asked coldly. “What do you think I would have done if May really married someone else?”
Jiang Shizheng squinted his eyes and replied, “You wouldn’t have done anything! You’re my student. I
know how you are!”
Fu Chengyan shed him a smile. “People change, Professor!” He was not a saint. “May belongs with
me, no matter in the past or now or the future!”
At this, Jiang Shizheng nodded. “I know!” In the matters of Shi Nuan and Fu Xicheng, what Fu
Chengyan did was so much more than met the eye.
“It’s not idental that you and Nuan met again.” The introduction of their acquaintance was also not
idental.
Jiang Shizheng knew him too well. Fu Chengyan would go after everything he wanted quickly – he
would never give up before he achieved his goal. “If Fu Xicheng and Shi Wei didn’t betray Nuan, what
would you have done?”
Fu Chengyan raised his brows. “What do you think, Professor?”
Jiang Shizheng shook his head. “Let’s y chess!”
Fu Chengyan wore a faint smile. “After you, Professor.”
Then, Jiang Shizheng yed a piece. Looking up, Fu Chengyan also picked a ck chess piece to
y. “After this game is over, you still have to answer me a question, Professor!”
“What’s it?”
“It’s about May’s parents.”
Following his reply, a white piece fell from Jiang Shizheng’s fingers andnded on the chessboard.
There was a hint of panic on his face as he looked up and asserted with an impatient look, “She’s the
daughter of Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu.”
Fu Chengyan smirked. “Are you still trying to hide the truth from us, Professor?”
Jiang Shizheng squinted his eyes. “I didn’t hide anything from you. Nuan is indeed the daughter of Shi
Jingzheng and Jiang Yu. Otherwise, do you think I will let my granddaughter go to a stranger’s house
given my rtionship with Shi Yunsheng?”
There was now a dangerous glint in Fu Chengyan’s eyes.
He yed another piece and said, “Do you have your reasons for doing so, Professor? Or could it
be…” He paused and rephrased, “I saw a man, who May mistook for her uncle, Shi Yu, a few days ago.
The man is called Shen Shixiu. Do you know him, Grandpa?”
Jiang Shizheng suddenly dropped the chess piece in his hand on the chessboard. A cold expression
was apparent on his face. “Yan, are you questioning me?”
“I wouldn’t dare to! One or two coincidences are normal in this world, but Shen Shixiu’s younger sister,
Shen Qianan, looks exactly like May. What do you think, Grandpa?”
