109 Special Protection
Sang Qianqian had not added Shen Hanyu on WeChat and only had his contact number. When she saw the verification message, she felt a little strange.
Shen Hanyu added her as a friend, but he emphasized himself as her new boyfriend. What did he mean by this?
[When did you say you’d come to see me later?]
Without any small talk, Shen Hanyu’s first sentence caught Sang Qianqian off guard.
Sang Qianqian thought for a moment and replied, [9 pm?]
She was just about to give him acupuncture treatment.
Shen Hanyu replied, [That’s too late of a time.]
It was just three words, but Sang Qianqian seemed to have seen the man’s frown.
Sang Qianqian replied, [Then when do you want to do it?]
Shen Hanyu replied, [At noon.]
Sang Qianqian replied, [But It’s only 10 o’clock now.]
It was only two hours away from noon, and she had only left his place half an hour ago.
Shen Hanyu replied, [So?]
Sang Qianqian was speechless. Thinking of his injury, her heart softened.
[Then I’ll go over to find you after lunch.]
Shen Hanyu replied, [You can eat with me.]
Sang Qianqian replied, [No.]
Wen Xu was still at her place, and he had just asked her what she wanted to eat for lunch and had already made a reservation in advance.
On the other end of the line, Shen Hanyu stared at the girl’s message and smiled. Reading her “No”, he could imagine her saying that in a coquettish tone.

Sang Qianqian contacted a teacher at her Medical School and told him that she would be taking a day off. At the same time, she borrowed an acupuncture kit from the school.
All of her things had been destroyed in that fire last night.
Wen Xu went to the school to retrieve it. When he returned, he heard from Sang Qianqian that she had already been discharged.
Wen Xu was anxious. “Sister, it’s just a few trivial matters at school. What’s the point of going?”
“It’s a trivial matter for you, but it’s a professional improvement for me.”
Sang Qianqian said seriously, “I’m not injured at all; It’s just that my throat hurts a little. I’ll be fine after taking some medicine.”
When Director Xue had asked her to study at Ming City University, although it was to treat Shen Hanyu’s illness, this arrangement had taken a lot of effort.
Sang Qianqian studied Western medicine, but this time, she was studying Chinese medicine.
The perception of Chinese medicine in society is somewhat polarized. Those who believe in it treat it like a G.o.d, while those who don’t sneer at it.
Before she set off, Director Xue once said earnestly, “Western medicine does have many modern treatment methods, but Chinese medicine has been pa.s.sed down in our country for thousands of years, so it must have its own advantages. Some diseases that Western medicine can’t cure can be cured by Chinese medicine. For example, Shen Hanyu’s headache and insomnia can be cured by Chinese medicine with a prescription and a period of acupuncture treatment.”
What Director Xue meant was that he hoped Sang Qianqian could dabble in both Chinese and Western medicine so that they could benefit each other. “It will be very beneficial for your future career.”
The month-long Advanced Studies trip had indeed opened up an ancient and mysterious door to medicine for her. The practical acupuncture lessons every night had benefited her a lot, and Sang Qianqian really didn’t want to miss out on it.
Moreover, it was only a mild respiratory burn, so it really wasn’t a big deal. A day of observation was enough. It was a waste of time to stay in the hospital.
Wen Xu couldn’t argue with Sang Qianqian. After all, she was a doctor. In the end, he could only helplessly say, “Then you can leave the hospital tomorrow and stay at my place. You won’t be able to go back to your place, after all.”
Sang Qianqian nodded. “Sure.”

During lunch.
Sang Qianqian coughed. “Wen Xu, what do you think of Shen Hanyu?”
Wen Xu ate and replied a little nonchalantly, “He’s alright.”
Shen Hanyu was willing to stand up for his Sister Qian. He taught Long Junzhe, Wen Hao, and Ding Aojia a lesson, and he even risked his life to rush into the fire to save Sister Qian.
To be able to do all this, Shen Hanyu really was a fine person.
Sang Qianqian was slightly taken aback “Then, do you think that someone like him is suitable as a boyfriend?”
Wen Xu immediately raised his eyes, puzzled and vigilant. “Whose boyfriend? Sister, you’re not going to give yourself to him just because he saved you, are you?”
“There’s nothing wrong with repaying him with my body.”
Sang Qianqian said on purpose, “Shen Hanyu is handsome, young, and successful. He treats me very well, and he is the perfect boyfriend I have in mind.”
Wen Xu looked as if he had been struck by lightning. “Sister, are you serious?”
Sang Qianqian was amused. “You don’t have to care if it’s true or not. Just answer my question first.”
Wen Xu’s face was filled with a complicated expression.
However, after thinking for a moment, he answered seriously, “If he were to be someone’s boyfriend, he would probably be quite good at taking care of his significant other.”
Although Shen Hanyu looked very cold, Wen Xu could more or less guess his personality from his way of doing things after knowing him for so long.
Shen Hanyu was a very protective person. Once someone is close to him, as long as it did not cross his bottom line, Shen Hanyu would tolerate them and even give them special treatment.
A few years ago, when Guo Muyang had just been promoted as Phoenix Technology’s Vice President, it was said that there was a lot of controversy about his ability within the company.
For one thing, he was too young and had an easy-going personality. For another, he wasn’t like Shen Hanyu, a founder who had extraordinary talent in research and development and decision-making skills. With Guo Muyang’s qualifications, the company’s top management did not approve of him.
Not long after Guo Muyang took office, he caused a huge loss to the company because of a mistake in decision-making.
At that time, the news was spreading like wildfire within Phoenix. Everyone thought that Guo Muyang wouldn’t be able to stay as the Vice President for long. But who knew that not only did Shen Hanyu not blame him, but he even let Guo Muyang take charge of another important project?
Of course, Guo Muyang didn’t let Shen Hanyu down. With this project, he made a beautiful comeback and gradually established his own prestige in Phoenix.
Shen Hanyu’s love for Guo Muyang could be said to be due to his work, and it was even more so for Xia Sitong. After all, he and Sang Qianqian had both seen for themselves how Shen Hanyu had treated Xia Sitong back then.
After Xia Sitong graduated from University, she started her own studio. In a short period of time, she had gained some fame in the design field, and it was all thanks to Shen Hanyu’s strong support.
It seems that Wen Xu’s evaluation of Shen Hanyu was higher than Sang Qianqian had expected.
Sang Qianqian felt more at ease and stopped eating. She took the acupuncture bag and said, “Take your time to eat. I’m going upstairs to perform acupuncture on Shen Hanyu.”
Wen Xu’s expression was complicated. “Sis, don’t tell me you really have feelings for him?”
“It’s normal.” Sang smiled lightly. “After all, I used to like him.”
Wen Xu was speechless.
Sister, you’re also aware that you liked him before. A good horse doesn’t go back to the gra.s.s, Sister!
However, Sang Qianqian had already walked away briskly, leaving Wen Xu speechless and confused.

Sang Qianqian had just arrived outside Shen Hanyu’s ward when she heard voices coming from inside.
“Brother Hanyu, don’t you think that you confirmed your relationship with Sang Qianqian too quickly?”
It was Xia Sitong’s voice, “She might have made this decision out of grat.i.tude for you saving her. You’re sincere, but she was probably acting on impulse…”
“Enough!”
“I told you last time that it’s none of your business,” Shen Hanyu interrupted her, suppressing his anger. “You’re in no place to interfere in my relationship with her. Xia Sitong, do you really want me to completely fall out with you?”
