Chapter 49 - 49 I Haven’t Given Up Yet
I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot
49 I Havenât Given Up Yet
âPresident Shen suddenly asked me where my sister was just now. Iâm confused.â
Before Shen Hanyu could say anything, Wen Xu said, âThis 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.â
Guo Muyang was startled. He looked at Shen Hanyu with a complicated expression.
There was one time when Shen Hanyu didnât 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 Muyangâs hand.
However, Shen Hanyuâs condition had been good for the past two days, and his headache hadnât acted up.
Could it be that Hanyuâs condition had worsened? Even if he didnât have a headache, could he be in a trance?
Guo Muyang smiled at Wen Xu apologetically. âIâm sorry. Maybe heâs too tired and his eyes are playing tricks now.â
Wen Xu shrugged his shoulders. âItâs a good thing itâs me. If it were anyone else, they wouldâve been shocked.â
Shen Hanyu looked at Wen Xu with a dark expression. âWhatâre you doing in Yuecheng?â
âThe ocean view in Yuecheng is pretty good, so Iâm here for a walk.â Wen Xuâs tone was indifferent. âIsnât President Shen here too?â
The conversation between the two of them had an inexplicable sense of confrontation.
Guo Muyang quickly changed the topic. âPresident Wen, are you also taking the eight oâclock flight back to Ming City? Letâs chat while we walk.â
Wen Xu hesitated for a moment, and he inadvertently glanced at the nearby bathroom, but he still nodded. âAlright,â he said.
The three of them left for a long time.
Sang Qianqianâs phone rang. âWeâre boarding now. Sister, you can leave.â
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 Hanyuâs existence.
Who wouldâve thought that she would run into Shen Hanyu while seeing Wen Xu off? She was really scared out of her wits.
Fortunately, Wen Xuâs reaction was fast. The child was also smart and quickly read the situation. Otherwise, it wouldâve 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 Cityâs development was focused on high-tech, while Yuechengâs 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 Qianqianâs heart skipped a beat. Shen Hanyu couldnât 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 didnât seem to be sick.
Sang Qianqian couldnât figure anything out and decided not to think about it. She simply sent a message to Wen Xu. âDonât come to my place for the time being. Letâs wait until the wind blows over.â
âDonât worry, Sis,â Wen Xu replied quickly. âI donât think Shen Hanyu suspects anything at all. He even thinks that heâs hallucinating.â
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. âShiâan? Youâre back from your business trip?â
On the other end, the man smiled and said, âYes, youâre home now, right? I brought you a gift. Should I give it to you?â
âNow? I just sent Wen Xu off at the airport.â
Sang Qianqian asked, âWhat gift did you get? Why donât you just go to the hospital tomorrow and give it to me?â
âIf I gave it to you at the hospital, youâll have to bring it home. Itâs inconvenient to bring it back with you. Plus, your villa isnât far from here.â
Xie Shiâanâs voice was gentle but persistent.
Sang Qianqian thought for a moment. âThatâs good too. Iâll be home in about 40 minutes.â
âOkay, Iâll wait for you.â
On the other end, Xie Shiâan was waiting outside the Sang familyâs 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 Shiâan before she even got out of the car.
She quickly jogged over. âIâm sorry. There was a traffic jam on the way. Did you wait for a long time?â
âNo, Iâve only been here for a while.â
Xie Shiâan turned around and opened the car door. He took out a stack of books from the car and smiled. âThis gift is a little heavy. Why donât I help you bring it in?â
Sang Qianqian was pleasantly surprised. âDr. Arturuâs original collection? How did you know I wanted this?â
Xie Shiâan said, âLast 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.â
Dr. Arturu was a very famous doctor and author. In the past two years, he had written several works, but unfortunately, they werenât translated and published in China.
Sang Qianqian had always wanted to buy the entire set of his books, but she couldnât buy it in China, so she had to give up.
She didnât expect Xie Shiâan to be so thoughtful as to buy it for her.
Xie Shiâan carried the books and followed Sang Qianqian into the villa.
Sang Minglang and Sang Pengcheng were discussing some matters in the living room. Xie Shiâan bowed and said, âUncle Sang, Mr. Sang.â
Sang Minglang didnât say anything. Sang Pengcheng smiled, âShiâan is here? Quickly sit.â
âIâm only here to bring in the books for Qianqian. Iâll leave immediately.â
Xie Shiâan continued, âItâs already so late. I wonât disturb Uncle Sang any longer.â
âItâs fine, itâs fine. Come over for a meal whenever youâre free.â Sang Pengcheng was very enthusiastic.
Xie Shiâan put down the books and Sang Qianqian sent him out.
At the door, Xie Shiâan took out an exquisite gift box from his pocket. âQianqian, this is for you.â
Sang Qianqian was surprised. âThis is also a gift for me?â
Xie Shiâan nodded. âItâs not convenient for you to use your phone when youâre treating patients. Itâll be better if you have a watch.â
Sang Qianqian looked at the logo on the box. It was a famous luxury watch brand.
This gift was indeed a little expensive.
âShiâan, I have my own watch. Thereâs no needâ¦â
âYouâve been wearing that for a long time. Itâs time to change it.â
Xie Shiâan stuffed the gift box into her hands. âBesides, you canât take back the gift youâve given. If you feel embarrassed, you can treat me to a meal when youâre free.â
He opened the car door, got into the car, and waved at Sang Qianqian with a smile. âIâm leaving. See you tomorrow.â
Sang Qianqianâs 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 Shiâan 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.
âXie Shiâan has been waiting for you outside for more than an hour.â
When Sang Qianqian returned to the living room, Sang Minglangâs lips twitched. âQianqian, this person mustâve pursued you for at least four years now, right? He still hasnât given up?â
