127 I’ll Convince Them
“Have you finished eating with your brother? Do you need me to get Qu Jiang to pick you up?”
Sang Qianqian’s eyes reddened the moment she heard the man’s deep and gentle voice could be heard from the other end of the line.
“Hanyu, my brother, h-he dragged me to a hotel. He’s taking an early flight back to Yuecheng tomorrow.”
Sang Qianqian felt extremely aggrieved. She was able to hold back her tears earlier, but now that she was on the phone with Shen Hanyu, everything seemed to pour out.
Shen Hanyu’s voice changed. “What happened?”
“It’s just that I didn’t dare to tell my family that I came to Ming City to treat your illness. My brother was very angry when he found out about this.”
Sang Qianqian suppressed her emotions. “In addition to the fire, he was afraid that something would happen to me, so he insisted that I go home…”
The girl’s voice was filled with suppressed sobs. Shen Hanyu’s heart was clenched tightly, and he felt pain. His voice was low, and his eyes were dark. “Which hotel are you at?”
Sang Qianqian refused to say, “You don’t have to come over. My brother doesn’t know that we’re together. If you come over, he’ll be even angrier.”
She was more worried about the follow-up treatment. “You may have to come to Yuecheng Hospital to look for me in the following month. Come to Yuecheng tomorrow and stay for a month. Let Vice President Guo take care of the company’s affairs…”
Her brother’s anger might subside a little if she returned to Yuecheng. It was impossible for her to resign. If she begged her father, she should be able to continue working in the hospital.
Even if her father didn’t agree to let her go to the hospital, Director Xue would still be there, so Shen Hanyu’s treatment wouldn’t be delayed.
The problem now was that her relationship with Shen Hanyu was something that her father and brother would definitely object to. It would probably take a long time to convince them to agree.
It would be difficult for her to go back to Ming City to find Shen Hanyu in a short time.
“Qianqian, don’t worry. I’ll take care of this.”
Shen Hanyu’s voice was extremely low. The sound waves from the microphone were close to her ears. It was deep and had an inexplicable calmness that made her feel at ease.
Sang Qianqian was taken aback. “How are you going to resolve this?”
“I’ll have to tell your family about us sooner or later.”
Shen Hanyu’s tone was extremely calm. “Tomorrow, go back to Yuecheng with your brother. I’ll be there soon. Don’t worry, I’ll convince them.”
Sang Qianqian did not know how he was going to convince her brother and father. However, when she thought about Sang Minglang’s att.i.tude tonight, she felt that the chance of convincing her brother was really too slim.
“My brother and father have a deep prejudice against you. If you come to Yuecheng to see them, you have to… Be careful.”
Sang Qianqian thought for a moment and worriedly reminded him, “If he gets angry and attacks you, you should avoid him.”
“Alright,” he said.
Shen Hanyu’s lips curved into a smile, and his voice was unusually gentle. “Sleep early. I’ll see you tomorrow.

The next day, Sang Qianqian followed Sang Minglang back to Yuecheng.
Sang Pengcheng was overjoyed. “Ever since I went to Ming City, I’ve been calling you for cla.s.ses. What, you’re finally willing to take advantage of the weekend to come back and see Dad?”
Without waiting for Sang Qianqian to speak, Sang Minglang said coldly, “She’s not only studying, she’s also treating patients! She’s been performing acupuncture on Shen Hanyu in the middle of the night and almost got into an accident. Moreover, her house was set on fire and she almost lost her life in Ming City!”
Sang Qianqian was a little embarra.s.sed. “Brother!”
Sang Pengcheng’s expression changed. “What happened? What arson?”
Sang Minglang explained the situation in a few words, “If I hadn’t discovered this, who knows how long she would have kept it from us. She didn’t even want me to bring her back and kept throwing tantrums at me.”
Sang Pengcheng looked into Sang Qianqian’s eyes and said with a serious tone, “I was wondering why you called me not long ago and said that you met Shen Shaofeng. So you went to see Shen Hanyu. Qianqian, how could you hide such a big thing from us?”
At that time, she only said that Shen Shaofeng was looking for her to sincerely apologize for what happened back then.
Sang Pengcheng thought that was all there was to it and did not think much about it. He even tried his best to help Shen Shaofeng with the artificial limbs.
After all, her daughter had faked her death and left Ming City specifically to avoid Shen Hanyu. Who would have thought that she would go to Ming City this time for Shen Hanyu!
Now that things had come to this, there was no point in explaining. Sang Qianqian could only speak the truth, “If I tell you, you won’t let me go. But when I pleaded for Wen Xu, I promised him this condition. I can’t go back on my word. And I don’t regret going to Ming City to find Shen Hanyu at all.”
She looked at Sang Pengcheng and Sang Minglang, who weren’t looking happy. She gritted her teeth and said, “Dad, Brother, I’m already with Shen Hanyu.”
She thought a lot on the plane. Since Shen Hanyu was coming to Yuecheng to meet her family, her relationship with him would definitely be exposed.
It was better for her to say it than for Shen Hanyu to say it. At least, they would be less angry and shocked once Shen Hanyu arrived.
The moment these words came out, it was no less than a bomb. The living room, which was originally considered calm, suddenly became turbulent and the situation changed.
Sang Minglang couldn’t believe it, “What did you say? What do you mean by ‘together’?”
“It’s the kind of relationship that you’re thinking of. He’s my boyfriend now,” Sang Qianqian said.
“Nonsense!”
Sang Pengcheng slammed his palm on the coffee table, causing the teapot and tea bowls to bounce up from the impact.
He was furious. “Have you forgotten about that nightmare of yours? Have you forgotten how much the Sang family had to pay to leave Ming City? It doesn’t matter who you date, but you can’t be with Shen Hanyu!”
Sang Qianqian’s emotions were complicated. Before she went to Ming City, she had the same thoughts. However, after spending some time with Shen Hanyu, those barriers and principles she once had all disappeared without a trace. In the end, she could only follow her heart and agree to his request.
She couldn’t understand why she made that decision back then, just like how she still couldn’t understand how she fell in love with Shen Hanyu at first sight five years ago.
Sang Minglang stared at his little sister and was practically fuming, “How long have you been in Ming City? It has only been two months, and you’ve already been bewitched by Shen Hanyu again? You don’t look like the kind of person who would be deceived by a man. Why did you fall for Shen Hanyu’s tricks again?”
“He didn’t bewitch me, I…”
Before Sang Qianqian could finish her sentence, a servant rushed in. “Master, there’s someone outside who wants to see you and the Young Master. He says his name is Shen Hanyu.”
Sang Minglang was infuriated. He stood up. “He still dares to chase me all the way here? I’ll tell him to get lost!”
“Minglang, let him in.”
Sang Pengcheng’s face darkened. “Since he’s here, there’s something I need to clear up with him!”
He turned his head and looked at Sang Qianqian. “Qianqian, go upstairs,” He said sternly. “Without my permission, you are not allowed to come down!”
Sang Qianqian was speechless.
