I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 596

Chapter 596 I Remember When I Was Young

Fu Chengyan had not wanted Shi Nuan to know that Shen Qianan was injured and at the hospital, but she still found out in the end. Despite being heavily pregnant, Shi Nuan insisted on visiting Shen Qianan at the hospital. Fu Chengyan had no choice but to let her go. But to be safe, he personally went with her. He even brought along many bodyguards and increased security measures, acting so cautiously it was as if Shi Nuan was a cripple incapable of doing anything herself.

Although she thought he was going a little overboard, she did not try to stop him. After all, it was good enough that he was letting her visit Shen Qianan, and she dared not make any request of him.

However, she could not help puzzling over what an odd person Fu Sijue was. “So, you’re saying Fu Sijue is actually Yun Jing, the man Qianan likes? And they’re Yu’s biological parents? So, have you resolved your matters? Apart from the virus in our bodies, there’s nothing else we need to be worried about, right?”

In truth, Shi Nuan had drawn that conclusion after learning bits and pieces of information over the past few days.

She had sensed something amiss when Fu Chengyan went out a second time the other day and failed to return. Hence, she gathered information from various people, including Fu Ling and Pei Huan. Based on that, she managed to piece together some parts of what had happened. That was how she found out Shen Qianan was hurt and why she insisted on going to the hospital to visit the latter. I also want to meet my supposed brother-in-law and ask my sister what on earth was she thinking!

Since she had made up her mind, there was nothing Fu Chengyan could do to stop her. All he could do was nod and give in. When he had gotten wind that she was going around digging for information, he knew that some things just could not be kept secret from her. Hence, he opted to tell her the details he felt she could handle. As for the bone-chilling scenes, he did not think it was necessary for her to know.

“That’s pretty much it,” he responded.

Shi Nuan frowned slightly. “So, what are you planning on doing? About Fu Sijue, I mean. Since he’s not part of the Yun family but the Fu clan, how are you planning to deal with him? And what were his motives?”

After all, the Fu clan was a huge temptation. Seeing that she had no idea what Fu Sijue’s motives were, she thought it was better for Fu Chengyan to be more cautious.

However, Fu Chengyan chuckled at her response. He reached out to pat her head, then took her hand in his. “If he has his sights on the Fu clan, that’s understandable. Besides, I’m too lazy to care about these matters,” he replied, completely unconcerned about anything related to the Fu clan.

Shi Nuan laughed and asked, “Then what do you care about?”

Glancing at her with a trace of a warm smile in his beautiful eyes, he pinched her hand lightly, then lifted it to his lips and kissed it. “You!”

Shi Nuan felt her face flush, and her heart skipped a beat as if all aflutter. Although they had been together for some time, and she was sure she loved him deeply, the flutter in her heart was not quite the same as how it usually felt when overwhelmed by love.

She could not help feeling a sense of familiarity as she gazed into his eyes. It was as if she had seen those eyes a long time ago.

While Shi Nuan’s heart pounded slightly and her face turned scarlet, he continued fixing his eyes on her after saying those sweet words. She shot him a sidelong glance and tilted her head, murmuring, “Yan, did we… meet a long time ago? Or did I know you from before?”

Fu Chengyan sighed. “What do you think?”

This silly girl. Didn’t she already know? We met each other a long time ago. I used to be one of Jiang Shizheng’s students, and she used to go to his house very often during that time. There’s no way she wouldn’t have known me.

“I know. You told me before. D*mn it! Why can’t I remember anything?” Shi Nuan answered with a frown, lifting a hand in frustration and tapping herself sharply on her head. I must’ve met him before, and we probably knew each other very well. Otherwise, there’s no way he’d treat me as if I’m special. Even when I thought we were meeting for the first time or still felt we weren’t that close, he was already looking at me differently.

Seeing her strike herself on her head, Fu Chengyan reached over and grabbed her hand. “That’s enough. Aren’t you worried doing that will make you even more of an idiot?”

Shi Nuan snorted. “You’re the idiot! Besides, even if I were an idiot, I’d still be your wife. So, what would you do about that? Don’t tell me you’d give me the cold shoulder!”

“Not at all. Whatever it is, I’ll like you all the same,” Fu Chengyan replied with a grin.

“That’s more like it,” she responded, smirking.

Nonetheless, he took her hand and pulled her into his arms. “If you can’t remember, then don’t think about it. In any case, I’ll be by your side every day for the rest of your life.”

Those words left a warm, fuzzy feeling in her heart. “Mmm, got it. It’s just that I sometimes think it’s a little unfair to me. You remember the past we shared, but I don’t. So, it feels like something is missing, and I’m not whole.”

His expression did not change as he tugged at her hair lightly with his long and slender fingers and said, “You didn’t use to be so gentle and quiet before.”

Shi Nuan blinked at him. “Huh? Nonsense! Both Grandpa and Grandfather said I was a good and obedient child!”

“Is that so?” His lips curved upward as he gazed down at her earnest expression. He could not help chuckling at how serious she looked and caressed her cheek with his rough fingertips. Finding it somewhat ticklish, she stuck out her hand and grabbed his. “Stop messing around!”

Fu Chengyan leaned in and kissed the tip of her nose. “You? Gentle and quiet? Do you know under what circumstances did we first meet?”

“No,” she replied with a shake of her head. Then, she reached up and placed her hand behind his neck, forcing him to continue leaning down and look at her. “Did you happen to pass by and fall in love with me at first sight because of my beauty?”

His eyes twinkled with laughter. Then, he lowered his head so that his forehead touched her chin and sighed softly. “Yes. It was love at first sight.”

I’m afraid she’ll never remember how we first met. I was passing under the shade of a stretch of trees on the way to Professor Jiang’s house when I heard the sound of leaves rustling. It happened to be a bright and sunny day, and the sun’s oblique rays shone through the trees. Upon hearing the rustling sound, I looked upward and spotted a girl in a floral dress climbing a tree. I didn’t know why she was doing so. She was probably oblivious to how her actions were… making one’s imagination run wild.

That was the first time Fu Chengyan laid eyes on Shi Nuan, and she looked young. She continued scaling the tree, climbing higher and higher, only to pick a flower that was blooming on the tree. Perhaps it was not even a flower, but just something that resembled one.

Nor did she have the faintest clue that her cartoon-printed underwear was on display as she climbed the tree and that he saw it when he looked up.

He could hear his heart pounding as his heartbeat started racing subconsciously. Even though he was only a teenager at the time, he had always been calm and collected, much more mature than others his age. Moreover, he had always been in control of every aspect of his life. However, his self-control cracked and came crashing down as soon as he saw her.

In the end, she slipped and tumbled toward the ground.

No one knew that when she slipped and fell into my arms, I fell for her at that very moment.

He was amused as he gazed at Shi Nuan, who was looking half-asleep. However, he did not say anything and merely held her tighter.

Initially, I thought that young love would sink to the bottom of the ocean after my departure. After that, I dreamed of her, and not just once but repeatedly. All my firsts seem to be related to her. Sometimes, I even wondered whether I was also plaguing her thoughts like a disease. But upon my subsequent return, I learned she already had a boyfriend. In fact, she did not even remember me.

Fu Chengyan thought he would have to bury his feelings for her after all.

However, he kept watching her secretly, telling himself each time that he had to control his yearning for her. But in the end, he could not hold himself back.

I behaved utterly despicably. Later, I learned that Shi Nuan was away on a business trip and that Shi Wei had always coveted everything that Shi Nuan had. That was why I…

He gazed at Shi Nuan quietly. She might never know how low I stooped to get her. In fact, I pressed on with my plan despite knowing those people didn’t treat her well, just so I could have her.

He reached out and gently brushed his hand against her cheek.

If, just if Fu Xicheng had been good enough and could make her happy, I might not have taken action. But regardless of whether it was the Shi family or Fu Xicheng, neither of them could give her a sense of stability. My methods may have been despicable, but she still ended up by my side.

“May!”

“Huh?” Shi Nuan felt sleepy. Since she got pregnant, she had become lethargic and gained weight with each passing day. Although she knew she was getting bigger, she could neither control her eating nor her drowsiness.

She opened her eyes dazedly and stared at Fu Chengyan, the sight of him seeming to overlap with a memory from somewhere deep in the corner of her mind. Squinting, she suddenly gave a satisfied giggle. “Ah Yan!”

Fu Chengyan was stunned, and he started trembling. He stared straight at her and stretched a hand with slightly quivering fingers toward her. “What? What did you just call me?”

At that moment, she blinked and jolted awake. Gazing at Fu Chengyan blearily, she sensed that something seemed to be off. “What’s the matter, Yan? Are we almost there?” she asked. Looking out the window, she smiled to see that the car had already stopped in front of the hospital. “Let’s get out, Yan.”

He frowned, but only for a brief moment. Quickly composing himself, he reached over and flicked her forehead. “All right.”

“Hey! Don’t flick my forehead! That hurt!” she exclaimed with a soft cry. Reaching over and flicking his forehead, she said, “Now we’re even!”
