I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 529
Chapter 529 Falling Into A Trap
“Bancheng, are you saying that they hid the man here? But…” It was evident that Su Shaoqing did not
believe what he said. He turned around and looked at Fu Chengyan, who was staring at the vi quietly
as his eyes glinted shrewdly. It seemed like he was thinking about something. “Chengyan?”
Pursing his lips, Fu Chengyan turned around to look at Su Bancheng. “I didn’t bring many people with
me here. Do you have enough people with you?” At that moment, he looked extremely calm.
Su Bancheng curled his lips into a smirk. “How can this benefit me?”
Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes. “What benefits do you want, Mr. Jiang?” He asked his question
calmly, so no one could tell whether he was angry. Moreover, he did not look like a man whose wife
had been kidnapped.

A smile appeared on Su Bancheng’s face. The corners of his long, narrow eyes crinkled as he stated, “I
haven’t thought about it yet. You can just put it on your tab first, Mr. Fu. We’ll settle itter.”
“Jiang Shizheng,” Fu Chengyan said out of the blue. Upon hearing that, Su Bancheng froze. He
narrowed his eyes and looked at Fu Chengyan, the smile on his face disappearing gradually. “What are
you trying to say, Mr. Fu?”
“Mr. Jiang, does your grandpa have a younger brother?”
Su Bancheng’s smile stiffened. A momentter, he let out a chuckle. “Mr. Fu, I’m d we’re not
enemies.”
“Of course!” Fu Chengyan grinned. “Considering our rtionship, you’re supposed to be my brother-in-
law, right?”
Su Bancheng twitched his mouth, saying nothing.
Meanwhile, Su Shaoqing was dumbfounded. Initially, he was wearing a solemn expression as he was
thinking about how they should save Shi Nuan. However, as soon as he heard the conversation
between Fu Chengyan and Su Bancheng, he was stunned. I can’t seem to understand what they are
saying.
“You guys… Wait a minute. Why are you calling my brother your brother-inw? Am I not your only
brother-inw here?” he asked. Although Su Bancheng is rted to the Su family, he belongs to the
Jiang family. So, his connection to Shi Nuan is…
“Wait. Jiang Shizheng? Bancheng, your grandpa’s name is Jiang Shilin, right?” Su Shaoqing was
smart. Immediately, he recalled everything, so he pped his leg and said, “No wonder Shi Nuan’s
grandpa felt so familiar when I met him! I didn’t know you guys were rted.”
Having said that, he turned around and looked at Su Bancheng. Su Bancheng slightly pursed his lips,
saying, “I’ll help you with Shi Nuan’s matter, but I want to take over the Aureate Jade project!”
“No problem!”
With that, the two reached a mutual understanding.
Instantly, Su Bancheng sent someone to monitor the situation around the vi. Meanwhile, Fu
Chengyan and Su Shaoqing started preparing the equipment together. As they turned their heads
around, they noticed that Su Bancheng was staring at the screen in a daze.
“Have you found anything?”
“Mr. Fu, do you know you’ve fallen into their trap?” Su Bancheng turned off theputer and looked at
Fu Chengyan. As expected, Fu Chengyan remained unruffled.
“What do you mean?” Su Shaoqing asked, unable toprehend what riddles they were talking about
this time.
Su Bancheng nced at Su Shaoqing as if he was staring at an idiot. The next second, he shifted his
eyes back onto Fu Chengyan. “You already knew that Shi Nuan is not their target?”
Fu Chengyan nodded. “Since he wants to y some tricks, I shall y along with him!”
Hearing that, Su Bancheng broke intoughter. “Then, why did you ask me toe here?”
Fu Chengyan replied calmly, “Just in case.” After all, he did not like to do something he was not
confident of seeding in, even if there was only a slim chance of failing.
He had guessed that Shi Nuan was not his opponent’s target, so they would never do anything to her.
Nevertheless, since Shi Nuan was with them, he could not act rashly.
The past two days were the most unbearable days Fu Chengyan had ever experienced. Unfortunately,
he had to try his best to keep hisposure. Otherwise, his opponent might take the opportunity to
take advantage of him.
He knew those people would not hurt Shi Nuan. Hence, he slowed down his pace on purpose to find
out what they were nning to do.
After a brief altercation with them, Fu Chengyan was now certain of their purpose. They kidnapped Shi
Nuan in an attempt to take control of him. Once he started panicking, they would then make their next
move.
If Fu Chengyan’s guess was correct, it was very likely that something big would happen within
Shengyuan Group in the next few days.
As he had expected, before he even did anything to save Shi Nuan, he received some news from Zhou
Zheng. “Mr. Fu, someone purposely sold Shengyuan Group’s shares at a low price just now. Also,
there’s an issue in the capital.”
Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes. “What is it?”
“Someone attacked Shengyuan Group’s firewall a few times, but they don’t seem to intend to seed.
They stopped doing anything after that.”
“I got it.” Fu Chengyan hung up the call. He could not help but roll his eyes, which initially looked
emotionless.
Not long after, he received another call from Pei Jingxiu. “It seems like your opponent is determined to
destroy your family this time. Not only did they attack Shengyuan Group, but they also did something to
the systems of Prosperous Dynasty and our cinemas!” Despite the news he was bringing, there were
no traces of anxiety in Pei Jingxiu’s voice.
“I see. I don’t think he will stir up anymotion for the time being. I’ll leave everything in Jiang City to
you for now.” After ending the call, Fu Chengyan asked, “How are things going on at the vi? How
many people do they have?”
“Around forty to fifty of them. It seems like all of them know how to fight. I’m just not sure how skillful
they are. How many people have you brought?” As he spoke, Su Bancheng kept his phone. His
subordinates had reported that the opponent at the vi was not letting their guard down. Many guards
were circling thepound, and almost every corner of the vi was guarded. Although they were
merely using Shi Nuan as a decoy, it was undeniable that they were powerful.
Fu Chengyan nced at Su Bancheng before looking at Su Shaoqing. “Four!” he answered.
Su Bancheng’s eyes twitched. “You’re going up against fifty men with four people? Do you want me to
call more people here?”
“There’s no need for that!” Su Shaoqing spoke up. “Just ask them to stall those people for us. By the
way, can your men hack their system?”
Su Bancheng shook his head. “They don’t have anymunication devices in the vi. Not even a
phone cable.” Therefore, there was no way they could find out the situation inside.
Fu Chengyan knitted his brows. “Lend me two of your men.”
Then, he opened up the map Su Bancheng had given him. After browsing through the paper, he
pointed at a few locations. “Shaoqing, bring two men to this spot. Mr. Jiang, please bring two men here.
As for me, I’ll go to this area. Can we do this in five minutes?”
Su Shaoqing lifted a brow while looking at Su Bancheng. “I can, but I don’t know if Bancheng can make
it in time.”
“Of course, I can!” Su Bancheng retracted his gaze. Smiling, he reached out a hand to pat Su
Shaoqing’s shoulder. “Are you looking down on me?”
Meanwhile, Shi Nuan had been in the vi for a whole day. After she woke up this day, the old woman
signaled to her that she had brought some food. As usual, she did not say anything to Shi Nuan.
Shi Nuan knew she should not sit there and wait for something to happen. She had to find a way out,
but she had no idea where she was at the moment.
The day before, she had taken the opportunity to observe her surroundings while the old woman was
not paying attention to her. The only thing Shi Nuan figured out was that she was in a remote and
wealthy residential area. However, she did not see any electronic devices,ndlines, andwork
cables in the vi. Therefore, she could not contact anyone to save her.
Fortunately, the old woman did not lock the room this day. Shi Nuan spent a long time observing the
situation outside through the window, so she could tell that all the guards were capable and well-
trained. Nevertheless, she noticed that there was a pattern in their patrol. They would take turns to
patrol the vi every fifteen minutes. Hence, even if she managed to escape from the house, she would
have to find a way to hide from them. In that case, she did not have much time left now.
Shi Nuan nced around the room. There was nothing except for some furniture.
Currently, she was on the second floor of the vi. When she saw the bedsheet on the bed, she
recalled the tiny window she had seen while taking her shower in the bathroom. I wonder if that window
can be opened.
In an instant, she ran to the bathroom and opened the window with all her strength. To her surprise,
she managed to open it. Cautiously, she nced out of the window. The second floor was not very high
from the ground. As long as she tied the bedsheet tightlyter, she should be able to escape.
For now, she only had to wait for the guards to change their posts. No one would probably notice her if
she climbed out the window during that time.
At that thought, Shi Nuan strode back to the bedroom swiftly. She used all of her strength to rip the
bedsheet, but it was harder than she thought.
There were no scissors in the room. Left with no choice, she fixated her gaze on the bowl she had used
for breakfast that morning.
Picking up the bowl, she ran into the bathroom and closed the door and window to avoid noises from
escaping. Afterward, she smashed the bowl hard.
She quickly picked up a shard to cut the bedsheet. Unfortunately, danger was fast approaching.
Right then, the old woman was waiting for Mr. J’s order downstairs when she heard a noiseing
from upstairs. Although it was not loud, she still heard it.
Soon, she received a call from Mr. J. “It’s time for action. Leave the area as soon as you’re done!”
Although his order was short, the old woman understood what he was saying. She picked up a syringe
from the first-aid kit and headed upstairs quickly.
As Shi Nuan cut the bedsheet, she turned around from time to time to look at the door She tried to
speed up her action, but the shard was not sharp enough. It took her a lot of effort just to make a hole
in the bedsheet. Just as she was about to rip it open, someone opened the bedroom door. The old
woman walked inside the room, staring at her with a cold, terrifying gaze. “What are you doing?”
Shi Nuan tightened her grip on the shard and hid her hands behind her. “What could I be doing? I’m the
one who should ask you the question! Why are you guys locking me in here? Where is your boss? I
want to see him.”
To calm herself down, she mustered up her courage to yell at the old woman. Moreover, she did not
want thetter to notice her nervousness.
However, the old woman’s gaze fell upon the bloodstain on the corner of the bedsheet, and she
immediately realized what Shi Nuan was doing.
Her eyes turned sinister as she questioned, “You’re trying to escape, aren’t you?”
“No!”
“Then, what is this?” The old woman pointed at the corner of the bedsheet. Shi Nuan’s heart dropped
as soon as she looked down. Before Shi Nuan could regain her senses, the old woman approached
her. She moved so fast that Shi Nuan could not even react in time.
The next moment, Shi Nuan felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. The old woman had stabbed her with the
syringe.
“Hey! What are you doing?”
