I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot - Chapter 49
49 I Haven’t Given Up Yet
“President Shen suddenly asked me where my sister was just now. I’m confused.”
Before Shen Hanyu could say anything, Wen Xu said, “This kid fell down. I helped him up, but President Shen said that he saw my sister helping the kid. Even the kid himself said that I helped him, not my sister.”
Guo Muyang was startled. He looked at Shen Hanyu with a complicated expression.
There was one time when Shen Hanyu didn’t sleep for seven days and seven nights as the pain in his body acted up. He was so dazed that he mistook Guo Muyang for Sang Qianqian, holding Muyang’s hand.
!!
However, Shen Hanyu’s condition had been good for the past two days, and his headache hadn’t acted up.
Could it be that Hanyu’s condition had worsened? Even if he didn’t have a headache, could he be in a trance?
Guo Muyang smiled at Wen Xu apologetically. “I’m sorry. Maybe he’s too tired and his eyes are playing tricks now.”
Wen Xu shrugged his shoulders. “It’s a good thing it’s me. If it were anyone else, they would’ve been shocked.”
Shen Hanyu looked at Wen Xu with a dark expression. “What’re you doing in Yuecheng?”
“The ocean view in Yuecheng is pretty good, so I’m here for a walk.” Wen Xu’s tone was indifferent. “Isn’t President Shen here too?”
The conversation between the two of them had an inexplicable sense of confrontation.
Guo Muyang quickly changed the topic. “President Wen, are you also taking the eight o’clock flight back to Ming City? Let’s chat while we walk.”
Wen Xu hesitated for a moment, and he inadvertently glanced at the nearby bathroom, but he still nodded. “Alright,” he said.
The three of them left for a long time.
Sang Qianqian’s phone rang. “We’re boarding now. Sister, you can leave.”
Only then did Sang Qianqian dare to come out of the washroom. She held her chest and heaved a long sigh of relief.
That was close, that was really close!
It had been so many years that she had almost forgotten about Shen Hanyu’s existence.
Who would’ve thought that she would run into Shen Hanyu while seeing Wen Xu off? She was really scared out of her wits.
Fortunately, Wen Xu’s reaction was fast. The child was also smart and quickly read the situation. Otherwise, it would’ve been really bad.
Speaking of which, she and Shen Hanyu had lived in peace for so many years. Why would Shen Hanyu suddenly come to Yuecheng?
The two places were thousands of miles apart. Additionally, Ming City’s development was focused on high-tech, while Yuecheng’s development was in the medical industry. It would be difficult for mobile communication companies to find the right customers if they came here to discuss cooperation.
This was also the reason why Sang Qianqian had tried to persuade her father to move his business to Yue Cty.
After they moved in, even the company changed its name. Her father and brother also rarely appeared in the public and media, keeping an extremely low profile.
Logically speaking, there was no way Shen Hanyu would know that Sang Qianqian was here.
But he still came, and even nearly bumped into her at the airport.
Sang Qianqian’s heart skipped a beat. Shen Hanyu couldn’t have come here to see a doctor, right?
However, just as she was about to hide, she hurriedly turned around to take a look.
However, she felt that he was quite fast when he ran over, and he didn’t seem to be sick.
Sang Qianqian couldn’t figure anything out and decided not to think about it. She simply sent a message to Wen Xu. “Don’t come to my place for the time being. Let’s wait until the wind blows over.”
“Don’t worry, Sis,” Wen Xu replied quickly. “I don’t think Shen Hanyu suspects anything at all. He even thinks that he’s hallucinating.”
Sang Qianqian was speechless. In any case, she had to be careful.
Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang. Sang Qianqian picked it up. “Shi’an? You’re back from your business trip?”
On the other end, the man smiled and said, “Yes, you’re home now, right? I brought you a gift. Should I give it to you?”
“Now? I just sent Wen Xu off at the airport.”
Sang Qianqian asked, “What gift did you get? Why don’t you just go to the hospital tomorrow and give it to me?”
“If I gave it to you at the hospital, you’ll have to bring it home. It’s inconvenient to bring it back with you. Plus, your villa isn’t far from here.”
Xie Shi’an’s voice was gentle but persistent.
Sang Qianqian thought for a moment. “That’s good too. I’ll be home in about 40 minutes.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
On the other end, Xie Shi’an was waiting outside the Sang family’s villa. His gaze fell on the gift he was going to give to Sang Qianqian, and his eyes were filled with gentleness and anticipation.
When Sang Qianqian returned home, she saw Xie Shi’an before she even got out of the car.
She quickly jogged over. “I’m sorry. There was a traffic jam on the way. Did you wait for a long time?”
“No, I’ve only been here for a while.”
Xie Shi’an turned around and opened the car door. He took out a stack of books from the car and smiled. “This gift is a little heavy. Why don’t I help you bring it in?”
Sang Qianqian was pleasantly surprised. “Dr. Arturu’s original collection? How did you know I wanted this?”
Xie Shi’an said, “Last time, I heard you mention that you liked his work. I happened to see it when I was on the business trip, so I bought it for you.”
Dr. Arturu was a very famous doctor and author. In the past two years, he had written several works, but unfortunately, they weren’t translated and published in China.
Sang Qianqian had always wanted to buy the entire set of his books, but she couldn’t buy it in China, so she had to give up.
She didn’t expect Xie Shi’an to be so thoughtful as to buy it for her.
Xie Shi’an carried the books and followed Sang Qianqian into the villa.
Sang Minglang and Sang Pengcheng were discussing some matters in the living room. Xie Shi’an bowed and said, “Uncle Sang, Mr. Sang.”
Sang Minglang didn’t say anything. Sang Pengcheng smiled, “Shi’an is here? Quickly sit.”
“I’m only here to bring in the books for Qianqian. I’ll leave immediately.”
Xie Shi’an continued, “It’s already so late. I won’t disturb Uncle Sang any longer.”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. Come over for a meal whenever you’re free.” Sang Pengcheng was very enthusiastic.
Xie Shi’an put down the books and Sang Qianqian sent him out.
At the door, Xie Shi’an took out an exquisite gift box from his pocket. “Qianqian, this is for you.”
Sang Qianqian was surprised. “This is also a gift for me?”
Xie Shi’an nodded. “It’s not convenient for you to use your phone when you’re treating patients. It’ll be better if you have a watch.”
Sang Qianqian looked at the logo on the box. It was a famous luxury watch brand.
This gift was indeed a little expensive.
“Shi’an, I have my own watch. There’s no need…”
“You’ve been wearing that for a long time. It’s time to change it.”
Xie Shi’an stuffed the gift box into her hands. “Besides, you can’t take back the gift you’ve given. If you feel embarrassed, you can treat me to a meal when you’re free.”
He opened the car door, got into the car, and waved at Sang Qianqian with a smile. “I’m leaving. See you tomorrow.”
Sang Qianqian’s emotions were complicated.
She had accidentally dropped her watch, and there were scratches on it. She had indeed thought about buying a new watch.
It was just that she was usually too busy, so she had been delaying it.
Speaking of which, Xie Shi’an always seemed to be able to accurately guess her thoughts from the details.
All these years, it seemed that it had always been like this. His intentions were always impossible to refuse.
“Xie Shi’an has been waiting for you outside for more than an hour.”
When Sang Qianqian returned to the living room, Sang Minglang’s lips twitched. “Qianqian, this person must’ve pursued you for at least four years now, right? He still hasn’t given up?”
