I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot - Chapter 142
142 I Can
Sang Qianqian was very happy to see such a Rong Yi.
Rong Yi really knew how to pick a place. The scenic spots he chose this time were more fascinating than the last time.
Rong Yan chattered and was as lively as a happy fruit.
She seemed to understand Sang Qianqian’s problem this time and intentionally joked around with Rong Yi along the way, making Sang Qianqian laugh.
!!
The complicated thoughts in her heart were also temporarily thrown to the back of her mind.
On the way back to the city, Yun Li called her.
Her tone was full of disappointment, “Qianqian, you moved? I couldn’t find you in school because they said you took the day off…”
Sang Qianqian was surprised. “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming to Ming City?”
Yun Li sighed. “Didn’t I mention last time that I’d surprise you next time I visit?”
She didn’t expect that she wouldn’t be able to surprise Sang Qianqian, and instead, she would end up in such a miserable state.
It would take a while for Sang Qianqian to reach the city. “Wait here, I’ll get Wen Xu to pick you up.”
Yun Li was unwilling. “I think it’s better not to. Wen Xu should be quite busy…”
“He’s quite busy, but he should still have time to pick you up.”
Sang Qianqian did not allow her to reject. “I’ll let Wen Xu know. I’ll go to Cloud Sea Restaurant to look for you guys later.”
After hanging up the phone, Yun Li held the phone in her hand, her mood a little complicated.
She didn’t have to wait long before Wen Xu arrived. The car window rolled down, revealing his handsome and calm face. “Get in the car.”
Yun Li didn’t even dare to look at him and got into the car with her head lowered.
Wen Xu glanced at her. “Didn’t I ask you to call me when you’re in Ming City?”
Yun Li coughed. “It would’ve been convenient to take a taxi. I don’t need to trouble you.”
Wen Xu’s gaze swept past Yun Li. She was wearing a v-neck light yellow dress and sitting with her eyes lowered. From this angle, he could vaguely see the scenery inside.
Wen Xu inexplicably thought of the night when the two of them were drunk, and his throat was a little dry.
He looked away and started the car without saying anything. The atmosphere in the car was very silent, so silent that Yun Li wasn’t used to it.
In the past, when she was with Wen Xu, the two of them would either bicker or throw back-handed insults at each other. However, after meeting him this time, she clearly felt that Wen Xu had changed for the better.
He spoke less, and his aura was different. He was obviously much calmer. However, when he was silent, he gave people even more pressure.
Yun Li had already heard from Sang Qianqian that Wen Xu had left ZhongwenFilm and Television Group to work with Youying Group instead.
She was quite sympathetic to Wen Xu. After all, nobody could choose what sort of biological family they end up with.
In the end, Yun Li still broke the silence. “How are you now? Are you doing well?”
“I’m alright,” Wen Xu replied indifferently. It was just two words, so short that it was completely different from Wen Xu’s previous style.
Yun Li didn’t know how to continue the conversation. Her lips moved, but she simply shut up.
—
Soon, they finally made it to Cloud Sea Restaurant. Sang Qianqian had arrived as well, and there was a beautiful young lady standing beside her.
As soon as she saw Wen Xu and Yun Li, the girl ran over with a smile. “Brother Wen Xu, Sister Yun Li!”
Yun Li couldn’t help but look at her a few more times. “You are?”
“I am Rong Yan, my brother is Rong Ce.”
Rong Yan took her hand and said from the bottom of her heart, “I heard from Sister Qianqian that you’ve come to Ming City, so I came to greet you. The interview you wrote for my big brother last time was very well written. My big brother was almost blown up by praises on the internet.”
Yun Li came to a realization and humbly replied, “As long as your big brother is satisfied.”
“Of course he’s satisfied.”
Rong Yan said enthusiastically, “My brother said that if you come to Ming City again, he must treat you to a meal. Are you free tomorrow night?”
Yun Li hesitated. “I’m not sure. I’m here to interview President Shen, so it depends on him.”
“I’ve asked him just now. Hanyu will be very busy tomorrow as his company has a new product to release.”
Sang Qianqian said, “But he’ll be free at noon the day after tomorrow. You can go to his office to look for him.”
“Then I’ll tell my brother later and ask him to treat Sister Yun Li to dinner tomorrow night,” Rong Yan said immediately.
“Sure.” Yun Li nodded with a smile.
Keeping in touch with a big shot like Rong Ce would undoubtedly be beneficial to her future interview career. Maybe one day, it would be of great use.
The few of them sat down and ordered.
Shen Hanyu sent her a message, “Are you home? Shall we have dinner together?”
Sang Qianqian immediately made a call. “We’re eating at Cloud Sea Restaurant, and Yun Li is here. Do you want to come?”
Shen Hanyu looked around the meeting room. His phone rang, and the dozen or so executives looked up at him.
He lowered his voice and spoke more gently. “I’m not coming. I’ll pick you up later.”
The higher-ups were all a little dumbfounded and looked at each other.
President Shen was usually cold and decisive in his actions and words. He didn’t drag things out, especially in meetings. He had an inhumane coldness to him.
Who was he talking to on the phone? His tone was so gentle and caring.
Sang Qianqian grunted in acknowledgment and whispered, “Then remember to eat.”
Shen Hanyu pursed his lips and smiled. “Alright,” he said.
The higher-ups nearly went insane.
Who was the person on the other end of the line? How could President Shen break his tradition of not picking up the phone during a meeting and even smile?
—
When they were almost done with the meal, Shen Hanyu arrived.
Sang Qianqian already had a boyfriend and had moved to the place Shen Hanyu had arranged for her. No matter what, Yun Li refused to stay with her and insisted on booking a hotel.
Ultimately, Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian sent Yun Li to the hotel, while Wen Xu sent Rong Yan home.
Not having to face Wen Xu, Yun Li immediately became more talkative.
She gently nudged Sang Qianqian and whispered into her ear, “Qianqian, I realized that President Shen is really nice to you. He even shielded you from the roof of the car just now, afraid that you would hit your head.”
Sang smiled faintly. “That’s not the only thing he does for me.”
“I noticed that when you mention him, your eyes become gentle and you’re almost smiling.”
Yun Li glanced at her and teased her. “Then when are you two going to hold your wedding?”
She did not expect Sang Qianqian to answer this question. After all, she understood Sang Qianqian’s personality. She was slow to warm up and passive. Falling in love might be possible for her, but it wouldn’t be so easy to get married.
Unexpectedly, Sang Qianqian replied seriously, “We should be getting our marriage certificate soon, but as for the wedding…”
She looked up at Shen Hanyu, who was driving, and smiled. “It will depend on the speed of Hanyu’s preparation. If he can prepare for the wedding within half a month, we might be able to hold our wedding by then.”
Shen Hanyu’s hands on the steering wheel trembled, also making the car tremble as if it was drifting.
He had always thought that when Sang Qianqian said she would marry him after the treatment was over, she was referring to an unspecified amount of time.
It was just like how people liked to say “Tomorrow, so and so,” but it wasn’t really tomorrow.
Shen Hanyu didn’t expect that Sang Qianqian’s time wasn’t a random estimate, but an extremely specific and precise time.
At the red light, he immediately stepped on the brakes and stopped.
Turning back to look at Sang Qianqian, Shen Hanyu’s eyes were deep and his voice was hoarse as he said, “I can,”
He could prepare for a wedding in half a month. Whatever wedding Sang Qianqian wanted, he would be able to prepare it.
