Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 543
"Isn't this ignorance?" Shen Qianan sincerely said as she helped Shi Nuan into the hospital room. "You think you're young now, and your body is healthy enough to tolerate your abuse. However, when you grow older, you'll know that your body can't withstand all this damage!"
Shi Nuan burst into laughter. "You're saying like you are more experienced than me, but you're only a year older!" Shen Qianan's face reddened as she felt a bit awkward. "I'm still older than you." "Yes, you are." Shi Nuan didn't want to argue with Shen Qianan. "Oh, right! Where's Yu?"
"He's at the Fu residence, probably playing with Bao." As Shen Qianan was talking about Yu, her face softened. It was clear that Shen Qianan loved Yu very much. "It's difficult to replace a playmate of a similar age as Yu. So, it's no surprise that he likes to play with Bao!"
Shen Qianan would become more talkative if the topic of Yu came up. "It's not easy for Pei Huan to look after Bao alone."
"You're right," Shi Nuan said and nodded her head. "It must have been pretty tough for Huan." As she finished speaking, Shi Nuan grabbed and held Shen Qianan's hands. "Qianan, it must have been hard for you too, taking care of Yu."
The corner of Shen Qianan's mouth twitched. "I-It's still manageable." At that time, she was willful. A princess like her wouldn't know how to take care of people. However, she was reluctant to part with the little life she had in her, and she was hesitant to sever the connection she had with her baby.
In the end, she wilfully gave birth to Yu. That period was the hardest part of her life. Shen Qianan was unsure whether the decision she made was correct, but the most challenging part was already over. "All right, let's talk about something else now. Did Dr. Yu tell you the twins you're having right now are boys or girls?"
"He didn't say," Shi Nuan said while shaking her head. "Actually, I don't mind what gender they are. I never checked on purpose." Shi Nuan was not fixated on the gender of her unborn twins, and it seemed like the Fu clan was not too particular with their genders too. It was fine as long as she could give birth safely.
Shen Qianan nodded her head. "That's good, but I'm envious. You're going to have twins."
After that, the sisters chatted for some time. When Shi Nuan felt tired, Shen Qianan watched over her as she slept. Then, Shen Qianan left when Fu Chengyan arrived.
Fu Chengyan walked Shen Qianan to the door. As his gaze focused on Shen Qianan, he asked, "Have you gotten the injection?"
Shen Qianan's expression turned stiff at his question. She then nodded and said, "Yes, but don't tell Nuan!"
Fu Chengyan paused before nodding. "I'll let Zhou Zheng send you home."
"Okay!" Shen Qianan did not refuse Fu Chengyan's goodwill. However, after thinking for a while, she suggested, "From tomorrow onwards, I'll leave Yu in the Fu residence while I go back by myself." A dark glint flashed in Fu Chengyan's eyes. He wanted to renege but, in the end, decided against it. "Okay."
"I'll take my leave, then," she said as she left.
Instead of entering the door, Fu Chengyan just stood in front of it.
He knew that what he was doing was selfish and perhaps unfair to Shen Qianan, but he had no other options now. To make that person appear, he had to bet everything on Shen Qianan.
According to the information obtained about the person, Fu Chengyan knew that he had lingering feelings toward Shen Qianan. Therefore, he wanted to see whether the person would make a move to save Shen Qianan, who had been injected with the virus. So, he wanted to take a risk to see whether that person would enter the trap he had set.
Shen Qianan exited the hospital and saw that Zhou Zheng was waiting for her not far off on the road. Zhou Zheng opened the car door when she approached the vehicle. "Ms. Shen, I was ordered by Mr. Fu to send you back."
"Okay," Shen Qianan said and nodded her head. "Thank you."
After she got in the car, she felt that Zhou Zheng was especially quiet today since he did not say anything.
Although Shen Qianan was not that familiar with Zhou Zheng, she knew about him somewhat. Her instincts were telling her that this Zhou Zheng was not quite right. "Zhou Zheng, where is the toy that my brother-in-law ordered you to buy? Yu said he wanted a Transformers set."
As she spoke, she noticed that the man in the driver's seat turned stiff before answering, "Oh, I'm terribly sorry, Ms. Shen. I was too preoccupied with fetching you that I forgot to buy it. Can I buy it tomorrow?" As the man carefully observed Shen Qianan, Shen Qianan scrutinized the unusual Zhou Zheng too. At the moment the man answered her question, Shen Qianan slightly frowned. "Zhou Zheng, can you stop the car at..." she said and looked at the surroundings before continuing, "Do you see that mall across the street? Park there. I want to buy a present for Yu. I haven't seen Yu for a whole day now, and if I don't, he'll get angry!"
Shen Qianan's request was logical, yet the man took quite some time before answering. "Ms. Shen, I'm afraid I can't do that. You see, it's not safe, and I haven't scouted the place yet. Going out in public places are dangerous, so I'll send you back."
Unusual Zhou Zheng's refusal to stop the car was clear as day. Immediately, Shen Qianan's frown deepened. "You're not Zhou Zheng!"
With a composed face, he answered, "You must be joking, Ms. Shen. Who else could I be apart from Zhou Zheng? This is not funny at all."
"You are not Zhou Zheng," Shen Qianan repeated with certainty. "The Zhou Zheng I know wouldn't talk like this." Although he had the same face and a similar voice as Zhou Zheng, this man's way of speaking was different.
As Zhou Zheng was constantly at Fu Chengyan's side, he would have picked up some traces of Fu Chengyan's behavior and mannerisms. However, the Zhou Zheng here did not have any of it. "Who are you? I want to get off here!" Shen Qianan shouted.
"I am terribly sorry, Ms. Shen. My employer wants me to take you to him."
As the impostor realized his cover was blown, he did not try to hide his identity anymore. "Rest assured, Ms. Shen. My employer will not do anything to you. He misses you, that's all."
"Who is your employer? I don't know him, so let me go!"
Shen Qianan started to become more anxious, and she reached out to open the car door. Unfortunately for her, the car was modified, and it was locked from the front, so Shen Qianan could not open it. "Let me off here!"
"Ms. Shen, I advise you not to do any futile actions. Now, I'm inviting you. If you refuse to cooperate, I'll be forced to take more drastic measures," the fake Zhou Zheng threatened when he saw that Shen Qianan was being troublesome.
Gritting her teeth, Shen Qianan retorted, "Why do I need to go to your employer when he calls? Who is he? I don't know him!"
"J, my employer is Mr. J. Did you forget him, Ms. Shen?" He noticed that Shen Qianan had frozen for a slight moment. The imposter narrowed his eyes, believing that she had indeed heard what he said. "Ms. Shen, don't you miss my employer since you haven't met him for so many years?"
"Why would I miss him?" Shen Qianan coldly said. "You want me to miss a kidnapper and a sexual assaulter?" Shen Qianan glared at the man. At this moment, Shen Qianan stopped struggling. However, her entire person had become cold, and her words became expressionless.
"I think Ms. Shen might have misunderstood my employer. My employer has been thinking about you when you aren't there for all these years. Maybe you think that he has forgotten you, but in fact, my employer has always been by your side!"
"Haha!" Shen Qianan glared at the man coldly. "Do you think that I will believe anything you say?" She would never believe anything they said. Shen Qianan added, "If your employer really cares about me, will he let me wander on my own for so many years? So, please let me off. I don't want to see him."
"I am sorry, Ms. Shen. My mission is to bring you back!" The man ignored Shen Qianan's request and continued, "Please wait for a while longer, Ms. Shen. We are almost there." Shen Qianan did not go against him, for she knew that the man would not listen to her. He would never let her leave.
Not long after, Shen Qianan felt a sudden weakness in her body, and she felt dizzy. Then, she fell unconscious. The man in the driver's seat turned his head back and looked at Shen Qianan before removing the handkerchief away from his nose and mouth. Seeing her sleeping face, he continued on his journey.
Outside the hospital, the real Zhou Zheng stood in an obscure place. He watched Shen Qianan get into the car before immediately calling Fu Chengyan. "Mr. Fu, you've guessed correctly. The person has taken action. He has found someone to impersonate me and took Ms. Shen away."
At this moment, Fu Chengyan was standing in front of the ward entrance. Looking at the soundly sleeping Shi Nuan, he tightened his grip on the phone before replying, "Okay, keep tailing them."
"Rest assured, Mr. Fu. We have our men tailing them. We will not lose them," Zhou Zheng said. "Moreover, we still have the chip implanted in Ms. Shen's body. If anything goes wrong, we can still replace her."
"Good."
Fu Chengyan hung up the phone, but his eyes darkened.
Shen Qianan felt that she had a very long and disjointed dream. Her last memory was frozen from four years ago when Jue failed to meet her. And from that day onwards, she had never seen him again. Shen Qianan was unsure what she had shouted in her dream, but tears streamed uncontrollably down her face.
She had slept for five hours. During these five hours, she knew she was dreaming, but she didn't remember what she had dreamt. She kept murmuring and muttering.
Shen Qianan was lying on the bed, entrapped in a nightmare. A man was standing by her bed. He had his arms behind him, and his eyes stared intently at Shen Qianan's face as if he could not get enough of her.
The eyes behind his silver mask showed a trace of warmth. He reached out and brushed a finger against Shen Qianan's face. "Qian!"
In that instant, Shen Qianan felt a sense of coolness on her face. It felt a little ticklish too.
She tried to open her eyes, but she heard a familiar yet strange voice in her ear. The man was calling her with an unfamiliar name.
"Qian!"
The man in her dream seemed like it was calling her too. "Qian!”
Shen Qianan kept running and running. She didn't know where the sound came from - be it from the front or back. She kept wandering and searching for something. "Jue, is that you?" "Qian!" "Jue!" She reached out and grabbed his hand. His hand felt cold and clammy.
Her eyes snapped open, and she saw that familiar mask appear before her. Shen Qianan's face was wet with tears. However, when she saw the cold and unfeeling mask and the man behind it, she froze before snarling, "It's you!"
