I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 187

Shi Nuan could feel that Fu Chengyan’s temperament was more volatile ever since he came back from the Fu family home. Although she was curious as to what had happened, she didn’t ask since he didn’t bring it up.

As the days pass by, Shi Nuan started to settle into her work at the project management department. She could more or less independently resolve most of the issues assigned to her by Lin Yu. With regards to the project at West City, Lin Yu would always bring Shi Nuan along to inspect it.

Lin Yu had also gone through Shi Nuan’s proposals and felt that they were very well thought out.

Shi Nuan had accompanied Lin Yu out today and by the time they came back, it was already late in the afternoon. At the entrance of the Shengyuan building, she saw a young lady helping a graceful and elegant middle-aged woman down from a car. It was obvious to her that the woman was someone really important.

Shi Nuan was walking behind Lin Yu as they discussed the outstanding details from today’s site visit. She overheard the young lady in front talking. She said, “Aung Song, do you think Yan will be angry if he knows that we came to see him at the office?”

Shi Nuan stopped in her tracks at that very moment. Lin Yu was caught by surprise and stopped walking too. They then heard the middle-aged woman reply. “What can he say? I’m his mother and you’re his sister. Let’s go!”

Shi Nuan knitted her eyebrows and sighed for a moment before realizing Lin Yu was looking at her. She then looked up at Lin Yu, “Mr. Lin, do you have something to say?”

Lin Yu shook his head. “Let’s go. We still need to work overtime today. We should get cracking while all the information is still fresh in our heads.”

“I agree with you!” Shi Nuan closed her file. “Mr. Lin, I’ll head upstairs first to process all these data!”

The middle-aged woman that Shi Nuan saw was Fu Chengyan’s mother, Song Zhenyan. It was just that they had never seen each other before, Shi Nuan didn’t manage to get a clear look at her either. But given what she overheard them saying just now and the fact that Fu Chengyan’s mood deteriorated ever since he went home; she figured that the relationships among the members of the Fu family are probably complicated.

Song Zhenyan brought Song Jingyu into the building and went straight to Fu Chengyan’s office.

Fu Chengyan was in the midst of discussing work with Zhou Zheng when he heard his secretary’s anxious voice. “I’m sorry madam. Our president can’t see you without an appointment!”

“I’m his mother. Do I need your permission to see him?”

Just as Song Zhenyan finished, Fu Chengyan squinted his eyes. Song Zhenyan pushed open the door and entered while Song Jingyu stared haughtily at the secretary.

Mai Qi felt trapped as she was unable to stop Song Zhenyan and Song Jingyu. “Mr. Fu, this madam…she…”

Fu Chengyan waved his hand. “It’s fine!” Mai Qi then left the room and closed the door as instructed.

Fu Chengyan shot a glance at Song Zhenyan before looking towards Zhou Zheng. Zhou Zheng understood immediately and said, “Mr. Fu, I have something to attend to now. I’ll return to brief you on this later!”

After Zhou Zheng left, Fu Chengyan put down his pen and looked up. His fearsome gaze fell on Song Zhenyan. “Mother, what brings you here today?”

Song Zhenyan raised an eyebrow and was irritated at Fu Chengyan’s transactional tone. “Yan, I’m your mother. Can’t you speak with me properly?”

“Please tell how would you like me to speak to you? We’re in Shengyuan’s office and you’re not an employee here. So you have violated the company’s rules just by being here. Notwithstanding the fact that you have brought an outsider in too. If there were to be a leak of any company secrets, you would be the first suspect. So what do you think?”

“Bastard!” Song Zhenyan cursed at Fu Chengyan after hearing what he said. “How dare you speak to me like that?”

Fu Chengyan stayed silent. Song Zhenyan continued, “I had no choice but to come here because you didn’t want to go home. So I have to look for you here.”

When Fu Chengyan heard Song Zhenyan soften her tone, he curled his lips as his gaze was unengaged. “I’m afraid you got the wrong impression. I have always been living this way. Granddad and father never had any issue with it.”

“That’s them. It doesn’t matter to them because they’re not concerned about you. But Yan, I’m your mother.”

“I’m surprised that you still remember that you’re my mother! When I needed you the most you weren’t there. You came back when I don’t need you anymore.” Fu Chengyan’s tone turned cold as he expressed his frustration. “I’m working now. If you have any official business you can make an appointment with my secretary. If it’s personal you will have to wait till I finish work!”

“Fu Chengyan!” Song Zhenyan gritted her teeth. “I’m not here to discuss this with you. You must know that if not for you, I won’t even have come to Jiang City from the capital.”

“Then please go back to where you came from!”

Fu Chengyan got up immediately and glared at Song Zhenyan. “You should stay at the capital and never come back if there’s nothing important!”
