Chapter 565 Mr. Fu Wants To See You
Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 565
Fu Sijue's icy-cold gaze fell on Shen Qianan. Seeing how she was unrelenting and pushing him, he tightened his grip around her neck. Shen Qianan felt the force around her neck and looked at Fu Sijue in disbelief. Then, as if she figured something out, she stopped struggling and eventually placed herself at his mercy.
She turned her gaze away from him, and it looked like she was prepared for anything that was about to happen. A small bit of force from Fu Sijue was enough to make Shen Qianan's face gradually turn red. His bloodshot eyes remained fixed on her, but she never met his gaze.
His grip tightened with every passing second, and Shen Qianan eventually found herself unable to breathe. However, she did not hold out against him as if she was a soldier who had laid down her arm. Looking at her behaving this way only infuriated Fu Sijie further. He loosened his grip and tossed Shen Qianan onto the bed with great force. "You wish to die? I won't let that happen. Even if you were to die, that can only happen with me!" He peered down at her, his gaze detached. "I won't let you die alone nor die ahead of me."
As soon as he was done speaking, Fu Sijue left the room and slammed the door shut, causing a loud thud to echo throughout the room. This time, he would not return. Shen Qianan knew that she had won another gamble, but such a win did not make her happy.
Truth be told, she would rather Fu Sijue strangle her to death back then, but he did not.
For someone like Shen Qianan who was stuck in this predicament, death would be a form of release. There was no need to be afraid of what he might do later on if she was no longer alive. Alas, he did not take her life. What he would and would not do in the future was not something she could predict.
Shen Qianan lay down on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. A hint of mockery flitted across her face as she curled her lips into a smirk. She was not sure how much time had passed, but she finally sat up from the bed. Shen Qianan reached for the mask that was on the ground, her fingertips trembling slightly.
As she grazed the mask gently with her fingers, a river of tears began streaming down her cheeks.
Meanwhile, after Fu Sijue left the room, Ying hurried up to him and reported, "Mr. Fu, something happened over at the company!"
"What?" Fu Sijue was stupefied. "When and what happened?"
"Not too long ago. It happened right after Mr. Shen left." Ying looked at Fu Sijue with a troubled gaze. He noticed the latter was not wearing his mask. "Mr. Fu, anyone who has seen your true face-"
Before he could finish speaking, Ying was interrupted by Fu Sijue's bellow. "Do I need you to teach me how to do things?" Both his gaze and tone were frosty. "Do not touch her. If I find out you've touched her as you did four years ago, don't doubt the fact that I will make you pay for it."
This was Fu Sijue's final warning for Ying, but when the latter heard his words, he was utterly taken aback. "Mr. Fu, you mustn't forget about your revenge. If the old master knows you're like this-"
"Shut up!" Fu Sijue glared daggers at Ying. His words were sharp as if they could pierce through one's heart.
"He's gone. You must remember that the person you're loyal to now is me, not him. If you like obeying his words so much, I don't mind sending you to accompany him in the
afterlife."
Ying wanted to continue speaking, but after seeing the warning in Fu Sijue's eyes, he ultimately decided to hold his tongue. He had been following Fu Sijue for a number of years now, and naturally, he knew how ruthless Fu Sijue could be. He was heartless and as hard as nails.
It's just that...
Ying's eyes fell on the door. The woman on the other side of that door is an exception.
He initially thought Fu Sijue was just toying with the woman and would not care for her sincerely, but he had misjudged his master.
"For now, you must return to Frosa immediately. There's a problem at the company," Ying urged, "Mr. Fu..."
"Enough is enough. You shouldn't intervene in this matter." Fu Sijue frowned and looked at Ying with contempt and anger in his eyes. He then walked toward Shen Qianan's room and stood in front of the door for a long while before finally turning around and leaving. "Move Mrs. Fu to somewhere else. If anything happens to her, I'll make you pay with your life."
Hearing this, Ying clenched his fist.
Shen Qianan was the bane of Fu Sijue's existence. Ying regretted not ending her life once and for all back then. Now, her reemergence was bringing imperfections to their perfect plan. I can't believe Mr. Fu is willing to put himself in danger for that woman's sake. He even exchanged punches with Fu Chengyan and Pei Jingxiu against our plan. That woman cannot be spared.
Ying could not let Fu Sijue discover his intentions. Thus, he readily agreed, "Of course, I will ensure Mrs. Fu's safety."
Fu Sijue glanced at him briefly before leaving the villa.
Since leaving the villa, Yun Shen felt that someone was following him. Although he looked carefree and aloof, Yun Shen was the most low-profile member of the Yun family. Furthermore, he seemed to be the most useless one out of the three sons of the family. Alas, people who lived a hermetic life like this were more unpredictable.
Before getting into the car, Yun Shen smiled and ordered, "Come on out!"
The other person obviously knew Yun Shen had detected his presence, thus he stepped out of the shadows and greeted respectfully, "Third Master Yun." "Who sent you here?"
"Mr. Fu."
Yun Shen was not expecting the man to be so honest, but the thought of the woman in the villa crossed his mind, and he seemed to have understood something. "And?" "Mr. Fu wants to see you." The man went straight to the point and continued, "Third Master Yun, please follow me."
Yun Shen raised his eyebrows. Since he was in a fairly good mood, he got into the car and instructed, "Very well. Take me there then!"
Fu Chengyan's subordinates did not take Yun Shen far. Since Fu Chengyan had been in the hospital recently, Yun Shen was led to the hospital. When the car stopped at the entrance of the hospital, Yun Shen raised his brows, curious. However, he did not make a fuss and got out of the car anyway.
"Mr. Fu's preference is extraordinary. He's going to meet me in the hospital?" Although Yun Shen said so, he still trod on the heels of the subordinates into the hospital.
They arrived in front of Fu Chengyan's ward not long after. The subordinate gave a slight knock on the door and pushed it open, gesturing for Yun Shen to enter.
As soon as Yun Shen stepped into the room, he was left open-mouthed by the scene in front of him. Shi Nuan, whose face was drained of color, was lying in bed. Meanwhile, there was a young girl sitting beside her. The young girl held a needle in her hand and concentrated on giving Shi Nuan acupuncture. At the same time, Fu Chengyan was also by Shi Nuan's side, holding her hand while tenderly caressing her forehead. His movement was gentle as if he was treating an extremely cherished treasure.
Shi Nuan kept her eyes open and looked at Fu Chengyan with a firm look. She bit her lips softly to ease the pain.
Huo Ling's speed was breakneck, and her skills were also quite good. Though pain was excruciating for Shi Nuan, Huo Ling still did not stop.
Seeing this, Fu Chengyan knitted his brows. He reached out to hold Shi Nuan's hand. "Hang in there. You can bite my hand if it hurts."
His voice was soft but audible. Shi Nuan shook her head and held Fu Chengyan's arm tightly. She only lowered her head fiercely and let her teeth sink deeply into his arm when she was in great pain. Fu Chengyan felt nothing, and he merely kept his gaze on her.
Finally, Huo Lin put away the needle. Her expression was solemn as she advised, "If you feel any discomfort in the future, please tell me in advance. That way, I can figure out the best treatment for your symptoms!" Huo Ling raised her arm and wiped the sweat off her forehead. Seeing how Shi Nuan was still in pain, she pulled out a small bottle from her bag and passed it to the older woman, saying, "These are the medicinal candies I made a few days ago. I've infused numerous herbs into them. Go ahead and take one. It'll help relieve your pain."
When Yun Shen heard that, he immediately burst into laughter. It was then Huo Ling finally noticed his arrival. She furrowed her brows at the unwelcomed guest and scolded, "What are you laughing at? I've got fists, and I'm not afraid to use them."
Yun Shen clicked his tongue and shook his head in disapproval. He then looked at Huo Ling with a disdainful gaze as he said, "How can a young girl like you be so vicious?"
Huo Ling liked gorgeous people. She appreciated everything that felt easy on her eyes. Still, when she saw Yun Shen's handsome face, Huo Ling miraculously did not have an exaggerated reaction. There was only a flicker of annoyance that crossed her face.
Huo Ling pinched her chin, looking at Yun Shen from head to toe.
Yun Shen felt this girl was quite interesting. It seems that she's a doctor, and her medical skills are quite excellent. Otherwise, knowing Fu Chengyan's cautious personality, there's no way he would entrust Shi Nuan's life to this wimpy kid.
Meanwhile, Huo Ling was having thoughts of her own as well. I must have seen too many gorgeous people recently so my eyes got tired. Otherwise, why would I have zero reaction toward such a handsome man?
She took a few more glances at Yun Shen but still could not figure out the reason why she was so uninterested in him. In the end, Huo Ling came to the conclusion that Yun Shen was probably the least outstanding one among all the handsome men she had seen. That must be it! Look at that face of his. It's way too feminine. That must be why I didn't react to him.
At that thought, Huo Ling felt her face crumpled in disgust. She spared him another glance and then withdrew her gaze.
However, the little changes in her expression did not escape Yun Shen's eyes. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Hey, young lady. Nice to meet you. What's your name?" "Creep!" Huo Ling ridiculed him and averted her gaze in response. She then looked at Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan and was all smiles again as she fangirled over their looks. Ah, as expected, Fu Chengyan and Shi Nuan are the most pleasing to my eyes!
"Ms. Nuan, please take one."
As she observed the interaction between Huo Ling and Yun Shen, the word, Frenemies, popped up in Shi Nuan's mind. Shi Nuan could not explain why, but she felt that their interaction was extremely amusing.
However, she was feeling a great deal of pain. Thus, she immediately took a piece of candy and popped it in her mouth. The candy was sweet. In addition to the faint taste of medicinal herbs, she could taste the refreshing sweetness of dried fruits as well.
Shi Nuan's eyes instantly brightened as she looked at Huo Ling in surprise. The latter noticed her expression and puffed up her chest. "How is it, Ms. Nuan? I wasn't lying, huh?"
Shi Nuan nodded in response. "You're right! It's really sweet. Also..." She felt that her limbs were no longer as painful as they were before, and the colors had returned to her face.
Fu Chengyan squinted his eyes. He heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this and patted Shi Nuan's shoulder lightly. "You've just completed your treatment, so you should get some rest. All right?"
Shi Nuan gave him a nod and lay down with Fu Chengyan's support. He got up and walked toward Yun Shen. "Master Yun, shall we have a chat?"
