I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 556
Chapter 556 What Are You Afraid Of
Su Shaoqing naturally noticed the hidden meaning in Fu Ling’s words. He was about to say something,
but he realized that the time was not right since he had not grabbed hold of her yet. “I’ll take you there.
It’s just beside my room!”
After saying that, Su Shaoqing immediately grabbed Fu Ling’s arm before she could even react. Fu
Ling tried to put up a fight, but Su Shaoqing didn’t give her any chance to do so. Then, she heard Su
Shaoqing say, “Mother, Aunt Su, I’ll be bringing Ling upstairs to rest.”
After saying that, Su Shaoqing grabbed Fu Ling’s hands and went upstairs without even looking at Lin
Shuqin and Su Yunwan’s reactions. After Su Shaoqing and Fu Ling went upstairs, Lin Shuqin looked
upset as she clutched her teacup tightly. Su Yunwan took a look at Lin Shuqin andmented, “It’s
rare to see you like this.”
Lin Shuqin frowned and grumbled, “It’s all right if he chooses anyone else, but why did he have to
choose her?”
Su Yunwan raised her eyebrow and responded, “It’s a good thing that he’s willing to bring her home.
Do you want him to stay single forever?”
However, Lin Shuqin was still upset. “But that girl doesn’t suit him! She’s a cunning woman!” Su
Yunwan knew what Lin Shuqin was thinking about. “But Shaoqing likes her. Besides, the event that
happened all those years ago-”
Lin Shuqin became even more frustrated when she thought about it. “That’s enough, Yunwan! She’s
such a cunning woman. I already knew that she didn’t suit Shaoqing when she set him up before. I
thought Shaoqing would meet a better woman when she finally left, but look at what happened now?”
shemented.
Su Yunwan tapped Lin Shuqin’s hand andforted her. “We can’t rush these things. I think Shaoqing
hasn’t settled on her yet. They haven’t married yet anyway, so there’s no need to be so anxious.”
After hearing that, Lin Shuqin could only hide her frustration.
How can I not be anxious? Su Yunwan said Su Shaoqing hasn’t settled on her yet, but he has already
brought her home!
Meanwhile, Su Shaoqing was taking Fu Ling upstairs. As they turned around a corner, Fu Ling pped
Su Shaoqing’s hand away. She gave Su Shaoqing a dirty look as she went past him and headed
upstairs.
Su Shaoqing frowned. Looking at his empty palm, this was the first time that he had a feeling of
emptiness in his heart. However, he didn’t think much about it as he hurried up the stairs to catch up
with Fu Ling. He brought her to a room beside his and said, “You’ll sleep in my room tonight while I’ll
sleep in the room next door.”
“No. I’ll sleep in the room next door,” Fu Ling turned him down without any hesitation.
She knew she was already pushing it when she came to the Su residence, so there was no way she
would sleep in Su Shaoqing’s room. Moreover, ever since she returned from abroad, she had no ns
to develop her rtionship with Su Shaoqing, so she turned him down.
However, Su Shaoqingughed and asked, “The room next door is my study. Do you want to sleep in
my study?”
Fu Ling frowned and snapped, “Then, bring me to the guest room!”
“The guest room is not cleaned yet. Besides, it’ste now, so it would be inappropriate and
inconvenient to ask the servants to clean up the room,” Su Shaoqing said.
Fu Ling didn’t look pleased when she heard that. “Then, bring me back to the mansion!” she snapped.
Su Shaoqing’s face darkened, and he asked, “What are you afraid of, Ling?”
Fu Ling remained silent as she looked at Su Shaoqing. He took the opportunity to get close to Fu Ling
and asked, “Are you scared that you’ll fall in love with me again?”
Su Shaoqing was getting too close to her that she could feel his warm breath on her neck. His familiar
smell surrounded her, and she didn’t know how to react. She blushed as she pushed Su Shaoqing
away. “You’re so full of yourself. I won’t fall for the same trick twice! Su Shaoqing, it’s over between us,
or should I say, we never even started anything before!”
Fu Ling’s words were heartless and cold. She looked at Su Shaoqing, but her eyescked the passion
they had all those years ago.
When Su Shaoqing noticed that Fu Ling was looking at him lovingly all those years ago, he turned her
down repeatedly and hurt her. He even said something nasty to hurt her feelings and got her to stay
away from him.
Su Shaoqing had seen the love in Fu Ling’s eyes countless times, so he would never forget it.
However, there was none of that in Fu Ling’s eyes right now.
In the past, Su Shaoqing could deceive himself and insisted that Fu Ling was only pretending not to
love him. However, this was the first time he felt afraid when he looked at Fu Ling’s cold and heartless
eyes. “Ling-” Su Shaoqing called out to her as he grabbed her arm.
Fu Ling didn’t resist. Instead, she looked at Su Shaoqing impassively and said, “Mr. Su, do you think
I’m still the naive and pathetic girl from before?”
She looked down at Su Shaoqing’s hand which was holding her and mocked, “Mr. Su, what are you
doing? Please don’t forget. I may be an illegitimate child, but I’m still Fu Chengyan’s sister and a
member of the Fu n. You are even friends with my brother. Do you think it’s appropriate for you toy
your hands on me in private?”
There was hurt in Su Shaoqing’s eyes as he let go of her. “Ling, are you still ming me? I-”

Fu Ling stared at Su Shaoqing and said, “I would dly ept since you offered me your room. Mr.
Su, it’ste, and I’m getting tired.”
Su Shaoqing pursed his lips as he opened the door of his room. “Please go ahead and wash up. I’ll ask
the servants to bring you a change of clothes.”
Fu Ling stopped being melodramatic as she nodded and entered Su Shaoqing’s room.
She only breathed a sigh of relief when she closed the door. She looked down at her trembling hands
which had betrayed her true emotions.
Fu Ling crossed her arms as she felt a little cold. A hint of loneliness shed across her eyes as she
laughed self-deprecatingly, but she immediately returned to her cold self again.
She only nced at Su Shaoqing’s room for a moment before averting her gaze.
I knew I will run into Su Shaoqing when I returned to Jiang City and meet with the people from my past.
I’m mentally prepared, but sometimes I still can’t control my emotions.
She closed her eyes and reminisced about her pathetic self from three years ago. She had learned her
lesson and knew some things just weren’t meant to be hers, so she no longer longed for them.
The lesson from three years ago had made her realize that time wouldn’t wipe away the differences
between Su Shaoqing and her. It would only make her realize how different she was from Su Shaoqing.
Fu Ling’s cold eyes grew even colder. During her stay at C Country, the only thing she learned was
how to hide her emotions and live a good life.
Someone knocked, so Fu Ling opened the door. She saw it was Su Shaoqing, so she asked, “Mr. Su,
is there anything else?”
“Here are your clothes. It’ste, and we don’t have any clothes for you. You have a simr size to my
mother, so I borrowed two sets of clothes from her.”
Fu Ling nodded. “Thank you, Mr. Su.”
Fu Ling’s expression was devoid of feelings when she took the clothes from him. When her fingers
touched Su Shaoqing, he suddenly held on to her hand and said, “Ling, you don’t need to be so distant
to me!” Su Shaoqing’s voice sounded a little hoarse, and this would have never happened to him in the
past.
Fu Ling lowered her gaze. Her eyes gleamed for a moment, but she quickly hid her emotions. “Mr. Su,
you are being paranoid. I’m grateful that you let me stay here today. If there is nothing else, I’ll be going
to take a shower,” she said.
Fu Ling pulled her hand away from Su Shaoqing’s grasp and closed the door without looking at him.
After seeing Fu Ling shut the door in his face for the second time, he looked lonely as he stood by the
door.
Lin Shuqin was standing at the bottom of the stairs. She felt upset when she saw Shaoqing in this
state. “Shaoqing,e with me. I’ve something I wanted to talk to you about,” she said.
Su Shaoqing hid his emotions and said, “It’s gettingte, Mother. What do you want to talk to me
about?”
“Come here!” Lin Shuqin insisted so Su Shaoqing had no choice but to follow her.
“Close the door,” Lin Shuqin ordered.
Lin Shuqin had brought Su Shaoqing to the study beside his room. He had just closed the door when
her face darkened. “Shaoqing, you’re not a child anymore. I have always turned a blind eye to the
company you keep, but I’ll not agree if you want to be with her!”
Su Shaoqing narrowed his eyes and asked, “Mother, you don’t like Ling?”
“I’ve never liked her before. I already told you before. She is not suitable for you. I thought you listened
to my advice!” Su Shaoqing did indeed assure herst time that there was nothing going on between
Fu Ling and him. However, Shaoqing suddenly slept with her when my back was turned. The baby that
she had brought so much trouble to the Su family!
“She has ulterior motives for getting close to you. Shaoqing, she is a homewrecker, just like her
mother…”
“Mother! I don’t wish to hear you say something like this again!” Su Shaoqing interrupted her.
Su Shaoqing’s face darkened as his tone became cold.
“What did you say? How dare you talk to me like this?” Lin Shuqin didn’t expect Su Shaoqing to talk to
her like this for Fu Ling’s sake. “Do you know what you are talking about? You’re my mother, so I
should listen to you. However, I wish you can ept Ling!” Su Shaoqing said.
“Shaoqing-”
Looking at Lin Shuqin, Su Shaoqing became serious unexpectedly and said, “Mother, I have missed
the chance to be with Ling for so long, so I don’t want to let her go again! I know you are still angry
about what happened before, but that’s not her fault. It’s actually my fault!”
Su Shaoqing smiled bitterly and continued, “It happened so many years ago, so I don’t want to talk
about it again. There is still a misunderstanding between me and her, so I hope you don’te
between us!”
Su Shaoqing’s voice was chilly, and he had a serious look on his face when he looked straight at Lin
Shuqin. However, Lin Shuqin couldn’t ept what Su Shaoqing had just said to her. “Shaoqing, there
will be no future between you and Fu Ling. Both of you are not suitable for each other. Didn’t you
promise me before that there wouldn’t be anything happening between you two?” Lin Shuqin asked.
“But Mother, I want to pursue her now,” Su Shaoqing insisted.
