Chapter 13
I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot
The Mount Yu Immortal Couple Temple
The scenery on the island was beautiful, and there were many scenic spots. However, after walking around, it was already dusk.
At night, there was a barbeque party on the beach. Sang Minglang had even called over the band performing for the opening tomorrow and specially arranged a Beach Music Festival to liven things up.
Wen Xu was so upset with Shen Hanyu that he decided to go surfing on a yacht.
Xia Sitong wanted to go to the beach to pick up shells, so Shen Hanyu accompanied her.
The lively Music Festival was left with only Sang Qianqian as an audience.
She sat there for a while, bored, before getting up and going to look for her brother.
Sang Minglang was standing outside the balcony, making a call. He didnât even notice that Sang Qianqian had entered.
âI called him last time to remind him, but he didnât seem to remember. Heâs still in cahoots with the Han family at this point.â
Sang Minglangâs voice was a little cold. âArenât they holding a press conference at the Longxing building tomorrow? Contact the buildingâs Management Committee and teach them a lesson. Let them know their limits.â
After Sang Minglang hung up the phone, Sang Qianqian walked over, âBrother, who will you teach a lesson to?â
Sang Minglang laughed without changing his expression. âOh, itâs just a few people who donât care about the Sang family. Qianqian, you donât need to worry too much about the business world.â
âBrother, donât bully them too much. Who knows what could happen? We might even work with them in the future.â
Sang Qianqian was truly worried.
âI know. Donât worry; Brother has a plan.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Sang Minglang rubbed Sang Qianqianâs head, âWhy arenât you playing at the beach? Did we not arrange enough events? Or did Shen Hanyu make you angry?â
Sang Qianqian shook her head. âNo, none of those happened. I just came to see you.â
âThen letâs have dinner together.â
As Sang Minglang spoke, he called the hotelâs restaurant and asked for food to be sent over. Additionally, he requested for ice cream to be added.
The hotel sent dinner over quickly. Sang Minglang pushed the documents on the table to the side and laid out the food, âIâve been swamped these two days. When the opening of Yushan Island ends tomorrow, Iâll play with you.â
Sang Qianqian wasnât hungry, so she only ate the ice cream.
Sheâd always been greedy for cold treats. Unknowingly, sheâd even eaten Sang Minglangâs portion.
After the two of them chatted, Sang Qianqian saw that her brother had finished eating and stood up. âSince youâre busy, Iâll go take a look around.â
She didnât want to return to the beach, so she strolled around the stone path on the island. Unknowingly, sheâd reached the foot of Mount Yu.
Sang Qianqian hesitated for a moment but still went up.
Mount Yu wasnât very high. After walking for about half an hour, the lamps on the top of the mountain were already lit. An ancestral hall with green tiles and red walls was hidden among the trees, giving off an indescribable sense of loneliness and silence.
She could vaguely see two statues in the ancestral hall. The man statue was dressed in a military uniform, and elegant jewelry adorned the woman statue. Upon speculation, they must be the general and his wife.
Sang Qianqianâs feet hadnât even crossed the threshold when she was already stunned.
In the ancestral hall, someone stood quietly, observing the statues from both sides.
His clothes fluttered slightly from the night breeze, but his expression was focused. The warm yellow light poured down on his head, and the young manâs well-defined face was visible.
Shen Hanyuâs unparalleled youth and his low-profile calmness seemed to be a perfect combination.
Sang Qianqian stood there silently for a while before preparing to leave quietly. Unfortunately, Shen Hanyu heard the noise and turned around.
The two of them looked at each other, and Sang Qianqian explained awkwardly, âI-I was just curious about the story, so I came up to take a look. I didnât expect you to be here...â
If sheâd known, she wouldnât have come up. At this point, Shen Hanyu mightâve already thought that she was following him on purpose.
Shen Hanyu hummed in acknowledgment and didnât say anything else.
Sang Qianqian looked around. âWhereâs Xia Sitong? Is she not here?â
Only after saying this did she recall Xia Sitongâs acrophobia.
âShe doesnât like hiking, so sheâs going to rest.â Shen Hanyu said.
Sang Qianqian didnât know what to say. Then, seeing that he was about to leave, she hurriedly said, âIâll go in and take a look.â
The ancestral hall wasnât big, and there were murals on the walls around it. On the walls were all legends about the general and his wife fighting against demons and ghosts to protect the people of Mount Yu.
Sang Qianqian walked around the hall to take a closer look. When she came out again, Shen Hanyu was nowhere to be seen.
She heaved a sigh of relief and deliberately stayed inside for a long time before walking out.
As soon as she stepped out of the ancestral hall, she saw Shen Hanyu standing next to the stone tablet in the courtyard, staring at the words on it in a daze.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned around and looked at her indifferently. âLetâs go,â He said.
