I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot - Chapter 240
240 Identity
Sang Qianqian held her phone in a daze.
Why did she feel that Shen Hanyu was acting a little strange?
What was he busy with? Why was he so busy that he didn’t even have time to see her when she woke up?
When Sang Minglang pushed the door open and entered, he saw his sister’s appearance and looked as if he had expected it.
!!
“Did he not pick up the phone, or did he answer and say he was busy?”
“He said he’s busy.”
Sang Qianqian pursed her lips. “Brother, Father said that Hanyu had met with some trouble. What is it?”
“It’s nothing big. Shen Hanyu is related to the Zhen family.”
Sang Minglang said indifferently, “His mother is the Zhen family’s Old Lady’s long-lost daughter.”
Sang Qianqian was stunned for a moment. She could not believe it. “Is it… The Zhen family from the capital?”
Sang Minglang nodded his head, “Yes.”
Sang Qianqian was speechless for a while.
Even though Sang Qianqian had been living a life of luxury since she was young, it would not be too much to call her the eldest daughter of a wealthy family.
However, if there were different levels of wealthy families, then the Zhen family of Beijing should be the wealthiest family.
The family had a history of hundreds of years. They were mysterious, low-key, but they were prominent, noble, and powerful.
The Ruan family used to be quite famous in the capital. Ruan Cheng was unscrupulous in his actions, but all these years, he had never dared to have any conflict with the Zhen family.
Against the zhen family, he would rather suffer losses and retreat than offend them.
Not only were the Zhen family’s businesses involved in the mining industry and the economy, but they also had many secret military factories that specialized in producing high-end military equipment.
The strength, resources, and network behind them could be seen at a glance. Other noble families could only look up to them.
Shen Shaofeng said that he had just reunited with the Zhen family when something happened to one of the Zhen family’s military factories. Old Lady Zhen sent Shen Hanyu to help with the matters there.
Sang Minglang raised his head and looked at his sister. In the end, he still explained on Shen Hanyu’s behalf, “Shen Hanyu is not the kind of person who would change his mind. When he comes back, you can talk to him face to face.”
During this period, Shen Hanyu did not come to the hospital, but Shen Shaofeng came to visit every few days to express his apologies.
He said that Shen Hanyu was unable to come over to accompany Sang Qianqian because of the Zhen family’s matters.
Initially, Sang Minglang did not doubt Shen Shaofeng’s words. However, half a month passed, and another half a month passed.
Shen Hanyu still didn’t show up, and Sang Minglang felt that something was off. He had called Shen Hanyu a few times, but he always said that he was busy.
If Sang Minglang had not witnessed with his own eyes how much Shen Hanyu had sacrificed for his sister, he would’ve suspected that Shen Hanyu had a change of heart and no longer liked his sister.
But even so, Sang Minglang was still inclined to believe that Shen Hanyu was hiding something.
On the other hand, Sang Qianqian actually had the same thoughts as her brother. If she ever doubted Shen Hanyu’s feelings for her, she would think that it was blasphemy.
Perhaps, the situation there was really too troublesome, and he was too busy to split himself.
The tiny bit of emotion in her heart disappeared very quickly. “Brother, when can I be discharged?”
“You have to go for a full body examination tomorrow morning.”
Sang Minglang said, “If there are no problems, you can be discharged the day after tomorrow.”
Sang Qianqian nodded. “Brother, when did you and Dad return from Europe?”
Sang Minglang did not hide anything, “I didn’t go to Europe. I was the one who called dad to come back.”
Sang Qianqian was stunned. “Why didn’t you go?”
When she asked to see Ruan Cheng, she didn’t even think about living. At that time, she was most worried about her brother.
In order to convince Xie Shi’an to help her send her brother overseas safely, she had put in a lot of effort.
Unexpectedly, he didn’t leave at all?
“Ruan Cheng’s men did something to the car and it exploded halfway through. My eyes were injured and my memory was damaged temporarily, but I’m fine now.”
Sang Minglang paused. “Ruan Xiaoshuang came in time and saved my life.”
Actually, even if the car had not exploded, Sang Minglang had no intention of leaving. His sister was still in Ruan Cheng’s hands, so how could he leave at ease?
At that time, his plan was to get off the car halfway, contact his men, and then return to the small courtyard to try and save Sang Qianqian.
He just didn’t expect Ruan Cheng to be so vicious and didn’t want him to live at all.
Sang Qianqian trembled in fear as she heard this. Ruan Cheng was really a bad person to the bone.
His and Ruan Xiaoshuang’s characters were like heaven and earth. They didn’t seem like biological siblings at all.
“Brother, how did Ruan Cheng die?”
“The police said he was killed on the spot on the top of a mountain east of the airport while he was escaping.”
As for what exactly had happened on the mountain summit that day, Sang Minglang had actually not personally seen it.
Due to the car’s explosion, he couldn’t see and had lost his memories. His mind was filled with images of being tortured by Ruan Cheng’s men and then being imprisoned in the Ruan family’s secret room and humiliated. Therefore, his attitude toward Ruan Xiaoshuang was extremely bad.
Perhaps Ruan Xiaoshuang couldn’t stand his attitude, so she disappeared.
The people taking care of him were two extremely patient nurses.
The doctor told him that he had found a donor for his cornea, and he could undergo the cornea transplantation.
However, he was found by Shao Jin’s men two days after the operation. They hit his head hard and knocked him out. He knew nothing about what happened after that.
When he woke up, he was in the hospital. He strangely remembered everything in the past, and his eyes regained their vision not long after.
The police told him that Ruan Cheng, Shao Jin, and the others were shot dead by the police on the top of the mountain. Ruan Cheng’s sister, Ruan Xiaoshuang, jumped off a cliff and fell into the river.
It was said that Xie Shi’an had people search along the river for more than ten days, but they could not find her.
Sang Minglang had gone to see that cliff before. Jumping down from such a high height, with the wild currents and towering mountain rocks below, the possibility of survival was almost zero.
—
The ward was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Sang Qianqian subconsciously turned to look at her brother. She knew how much her brother had loved Ruan Xiaoshuang. Now that Ruan Xiaoshuang was dead, her brother must be very sad.
However, Sang Minglang’s expression was so calm that it was almost indifferent.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Sang Minglang said casually, “She has nothing to do with me since a long time ago.”
Sang Qianqian hesitated. How could they not be related?
After all, she was the person he had liked for so many years. However, all the things that happened to the Sang family were all because of the Ruan family.
Even if Ruan Xiaoshuang was still alive, her brother wouldn’t want anything to do with Ruan Xiaoshuang anymore. Her brother didn’t even want to mention her name anymore.
However, Sang Qianqian could not understand why Ruan Xiaoshuang would make such a decision.
She should be someone who could distinguish right from wrong. Why would she take things so hard and do something so stupid because of Ruan Cheng’s death?
—
Footsteps could be heard from outside the door, followed by a happy voice. “Qianqian, you’re awake?”
Sang Qianqian looked up and saw Shen Shaofeng striding in, holding a large bouquet of bright red roses in his hand.
Seeing Sang Qianqian’s gaze on the flowers, Shen Shaofeng explained with a smile, “Hanyu can’t come over. He asked me to buy these for you.”
