I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 135

Shi Wei had been busy preparing for the wedding recently. Despite parents from both sides insisting on letting them handle the event, getting married was every girl’s dream, and Shi Wei was no exception.

She had been constantly buying things from Liu Minjun, which was an important step to appease the latter. Shi Wei noticed that Fu Xicheng seemed rather distracted recently. She knew he still couldn’t get over that wench, Shi Nuan. Even when they were about to get married, Fu Xicheng was still thinking about Shi Nuan.

It wasn’t as though Shi Wei didn’t know, but she just couldn’t accept it. To Shi Wei, spending the rest of her life with Fu Xicheng was certain.

Fu Xicheng’s current weaknesses were Fu Yuqing and Liu Minjun. Fu Yuqing was a grown man and there was no need for Shi Wei to try to butter him up. She only needed to look elegant enough for the man to accept her. But Liu Minjun was different. Liu Minjun was a housewife who gave her everything to Fu Xicheng and Fu Yuqing.

Fu Xicheng was Liu Minjun’s only son, and it was clear how much she loved him. There was no way Fu Xicheng wouldn’t want Shi Wei, so long as Shi Wei could appease Liu Minjun.

So no matter what Liu Minjun was busy with, Shi Wei would always be there with her. Liu Minjun wasn’t a cold-hearted woman. Accepting the fact that her son was going to marry Shi Wei and seeing how decent her future daughter-in-law looked, she slowly began to forget about Shi Nuan.

Shi Wei was so busy that she naturally forgot all about Anna. She couldn’t care less about whether her friend was dead or alive.

Shi Wei recalled that Su Su went to meet her on the day before the wedding. Su Su mentioned that Anna was now doing fine and was resting at home. Anna seemed to have been traumatized and hadn’t left the house for a long time. It was only now that Shi Wei remembered her. “Then… Did Anna tell you anything? Did she blame me?”

Su Su shook her head. “I’ve been busy too, so I haven’t contacted her much. I heard all of this from Li Qiao over some coffee. She asked me why she hadn’t seen me with Anna for a while,” Su Su said. “Do you think Anna is blaming us for what had happened?”

“Why would she blame you? She’d probably blame me! Did you know she called me up once? But none of us knows who she offended, and there was no way I could help her. Besides, I’ve been busy preparing for the wedding, so I’ve neglected her,” Shi Wei said, looking frustrated. “I don’t even know if she’ll come to my wedding tomorrow!”

The woman they were talking about happened to be shopping with her mother. After the incident, Anna was so traumatized that she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days.

Anna didn’t want to leave the house with her scars. Despite putting on makeup, they still looked very visible.

On top of that, Anna had always been extremely vain. She had always looked good, so she just couldn’t accept having two scars on her face now. Anna also couldn’t understand why her father refused to let her fix the scars. She was only allowed to leave the country for surgery after reflecting on her past actions.

“Mom, let’s just go home!” Anna had a pair of sunglasses on and looked rather apprehensive. Mrs. An felt sorry too, but there was nothing else she could do. She took Anna out because she felt she simply couldn’t let her daughter remain stuck at home.

“Spend some time shopping with me, dear child! You used to be so busy that you hardly ever kept mommy company,” Mrs. An said while patting Anna’s hand. But Anna was beyond upset. “But my face!” she exclaimed while looking around.

“You’ll always be the prettiest girl to mommy!”

“But…” Anna wanted to say more, but she suddenly saw two familiar silhouettes from nearby.

It didn’t take long for her to recognize Shi Wei and Su Su. The two girls chatted and laughed while shopping together. Anna clenched her fists and glared at them with rage. She wanted to walk towards them but Mrs. An held her back. “What are you thinking of doing, Anna? You promised your father and brother that you wouldn’t be friends with them anymore!”

“I…” Anna reluctantly walked in the opposite direction while being dragged along by Mrs. An.

Anna was extremely unhappy. The hatred in her heart intensified as she touched her own face and thought about the document An Chenyu had shown her.

She had always considered Shi Wei and Su Su her two best friends, but she didn’t think they’d abandon and even use her when she needed them most. Anna remembered her brother saying that if Shi Nuan hadn’t been saved and actually died of poisoning back then, Anna would have been labeled a murder.

“Anna? Anna?” Mrs. An began to panic upon seeing how pale Anna’s face became. “If you don’t want to shop, then mommy will bring you home!”

“Mom, I’m fine!” Anna knew she had made her mother worry, so she quickly put on a smile. “Sorry, I got a bit too worked up. I won’t be so stubborn anymore, don’t worry.” But just as she spoke, she was startled to see Shi Nuan walking in her direction and her gaze changed promptly.

Shi Nuan didn’t expect to run into Anna either. They hadn’t met ever since that classmates’ gathering, so Shi Nuan was rather shocked.

Anna’s face wasn’t exactly ruined, but it still looked a bit frightening, especially when a beautiful woman like her had two knife scars on her face.
