I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 112

“You’re doing this for the mere shares owned by Shi Wei, right? Ha! Dad, you know why I ended up with Shi Wei, right?” Fu Xicheng shot an icy stare at Fu Yuqing. “I was happy with Nuan, but…”

“Shut up!” Fu Yuqing cut Fu Xicheng off. “You ungrateful rascal! I did that for your sake. If you marry Shi Wei, not only her shares, but the whole Huancheng and Shi family will be under your control. What does Shi Nuan have? If she’s that capable, I won’t be against your relationship!”

“Nuan…” Fu Xicheng was about to say something but thought the better. He thought about what happened today and that Shi Nuan’s remarks were like a huge slap to his face.

Back then, I was free to do anything back in university. I had excellent results and was passionate about everything. But after I started working, I have to about the consequences before I make a decision!

It was obvious Shi Nuan looked down on me today.

As feelings of humiliation overwhelmed him, Fu Xicheng clenched his fists tightly, his veins almost popping out.

The man felt helpless when he recalled Shi Nuan saying she’d rather sell her shares to others than give it to him. He glared at Fu Yuqing before leaving and slammed the door behind him with a loud bang.

As a mother, Liu Minjun was worried and tried to leave with him, but Fu Yuqing stopped her from doing so. “Ignore him! I did everything for him! Let him calm down and think about it. I warn you, don’t you dare meddle with this. You pamper him too much!”

Liu Minjun’s face drained of color. She thinned her lips before smiling resignedly. “Cheng is our son. Isn’t that a bit too harsh? Besides, Shi Wei…”

“They can develop feelings for each other later on. I don’t think Shi Nuan is that good! It has been decided, so go and meet Jiang Yu tomorrow.”

At that moment, Fu Xicheng was extremely annoyed. He wanted to vent out the frustrations in his heart. With that, the man floored the accelerator and sped away from the Fu household.

After a while, Fu Xicheng reached a bar. He sat under the bright neon lights and tried to numb himself by drinking one after the other. He glanced at his surroundings with dazed eyes, recalling the wonderful memories he had with Shi Nuan. Suddenly, Fu Xicheng smashed the glass he was holding onto the ground. “Why?!” Why is Shi Nuan not favored? Why didn’t Shi Yunsheng give Shi Nuan his shares earlier?

If Shi Yunsheng had given Shi Nuan his shares earlier, I wouldn’t have to be with Shi Wei. All these…

“Sir, are you alright?” The bartender hurriedly informed the security after seeing Fu Xicheng’s reaction. “Sir!”

Fu Xicheng gazed at the people surrounding him in a drunken stupor before shoving them away. “I’m fine. Give me more liquor!” He took out his wallet and slammed it on the table.

Those who frequent the bar either got dumped or lost their job and wanted to get drunk here. Hence, the bartender was certain Fu Xicheng was among one of those people. “Sir, you should stop drinking.”

“Why can’t I drink? I have money!” Fu Xicheng burped and stuttered, “Bring me more!” He took out his phone, scrolled to Shi Nuan’s number, and proceeded to call her.

At that time, Shi Nuan was still taking a shower, and her phone was left on the bedside table. It just so happened that Fu Chengyan heard the phone ringing when he walked in. When he spotted Fu Xicheng’s number on the screen, his gaze darkened instantly.

Although Fu Chengyan rejected the call, Fu Xicheng still wouldn’t give up and continued calling her. Right at that instant, Fu Chengyan’s gaze grew even colder. He allowed the phone to ring as he clutched it in his hand.

When Shi Nuan came out, she saw Fu Chengyan holding her phone that was still ringing. “What’s wrong?”

Fu Chengyan arched his brows and gave the phone to her. Shi Nuan frowned when she saw the caller ID and hung up at once. She raised her head to gaze at Fu Chengyan. “I…”

Before she could finish, her phone started ringing again. Shi Nuan frowned in displeasure and rejected the call again. However, before she could speak, Fu Chengyan asked, “Why didn’t you wipe your hair with a towel before coming out?”

Shi Nuan was surprised as Fu Chengyan strode to the bathroom. After a while, he returned with a towel in his hand, signaling her to sit down.

“Well…” Shi Nuan bit her lip in hesitation.

“Come here!” Fu Chengyan waved to her, seemingly unperturbed by Fu Xicheng’s calls. Shi Nuan had no idea what was going on in that man’s mind as she slowly made her way towards him.

Then, his slender fingers ran through her hair and dried them gently. Shi Nuan could feel her heart thumping wildly in her chest. It was nothing serious, but she felt guilty about it.

If Fu Chengyan had said something, she wouldn’t feel this way.

However, there was an awkward silence between them at that moment. Shi Nuan bit her lips and was about to say something when her phone rang again. It was, as expected, Fu Xicheng again. His never-ending calls had appeared to make Shi Nuan was upset when she rejected his call without haste. After that, she blocked his number before silence ensued again. “Why won’t you say something?”
