129 Unless She… Doesn’t Want Me Anymore
Sang Qianqian waited anxiously upstairs, feeling uneasy.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Sang Minglang finally came up. He stared at her with a strange look.
Sang Qianqian was getting gooseb.u.mps from her brother’s stare. “Brother, why are you looking at me like that?”
“Seriously, what sort of people are you attracting?”
Sang Minglang’s expression was a little complicated.
Xie Shi’an was already crazy enough. Every now and then, he would wait for Qianqian at the Sang family’s door for four years.
Who would have thought that an even crazier person would come? He even abandoned all the businesses under his name just to be with her.
“Brother, what do you mean? Can’t you make yourself clear?” Sang Qianqian was confused by his words.
“Do you really want to be with Shen Hanyu?” Sang Minglang did not answer and asked instead.
“Aren’t we already together?”
Sang Qianqian replied seriously, “At least for now, I have no thoughts of breaking up with him.”
Sang Minglang nodded his head, “Alright, you choose your own path. You also choose your own person. Just don’t cry if Shen Hanyu is as bad as Xie Shi’an in the future.”
Although Shen Hanyu was sincere enough today, it was hard to say what a man’s heart was like. What you can’t get is always the best. Once you get it, you might not know how to cherish it. Wasn’t Xie Shi’an a living example?
Moreover, even if people’s hearts didn’t change, the world was too fickle. If you don’t reach the day where you grow old together, you’ll never know if the current person by your side will be the one you truly love the most.
Sang Qianqian was stunned for a moment before she became overjoyed. “Brother, does this mean you and Father have agreed to let us be together?”
Sang Minglang stuffed a pile of materials into her hands. “Keep it well. Although we won’t take Shen Hanyu’s shares, it’s more or less a guarantee to keep it. In the future, if he makes you angry, you can just sign it and he’ll bleed a lot.”
Sang Qianqian glanced at the contents of the doc.u.ment, feeling complicated. “Where is he?”
“Downstairs. Dad is asking him a few questions.”
Sang Minglang was about to head upstairs when Sang Qianqian stuffed all the doc.u.ments into his arms. “Brother, help put them away for me.”
She then turned around and ran off in a hurry.
Sang Minglang was helpless. No wonder people said that a grown girl couldn’t be kept at home. This girl was really… Once she had a boyfriend, she would push aside her whole family.
When his gaze landed on these doc.u.ments, Sang Minglang suddenly felt a sense of desolation. Shen Hanyu had given up everything just to be with his sister.
He was the same many years ago. He took out everything he had along with his heart. He was humble and pious in front of the girl he loved.
In the end, he was thrown into the dust and trampled to pieces. After so many years, he still couldn’t recover.
He hoped that his sister didn’t choose the wrong person this time, and he also hoped that Shen Hanyu wouldn’t have the same bad luck he had.
When Sang Qianqian went downstairs, she saw her father talking to Shen Hanyu. He seemed to be asking about Shen Shaofeng’s recovery.
Hearing footsteps, the two of them turned their heads at the same time.
Sang Qianqian’s eyes swept over Shen Hanyu’s handsome face. ‘Hmm, he’s not hurt. It looks like Brother didn’t do anything to him.’
She sat down beside Sang Pengcheng and said obediently, “Dad, you don’t know how nervous I was just now. Thank you for your understanding.”
“You should be nervous. There are other matters at hand.”
Sang Pengcheng’s face was tense. “The real arsonist hasn’t been caught yet, which means you are still in danger. In my opinion, you’d better not return to Ming City before this matter is settled.”
“How can we do that? I have to go back.”
Sang Qianqian was unhappy when she heard this. “I have to attend the Advanced Studies cla.s.s in school, and I still have to perform acupuncture on Hanyu. Don’t worry, Dad. Hanyu asked Uncle Guo dingsong to protect me. I’ll be fine.”
Sang Pengcheng was startled. “Guo Dingsong?”
The Dingsong Martial Arts Center that Guo Dingsong had opened in Ming City was quite famous, but he was even more famous than the center.
Countless rich and powerful families in Ming City wanted Guo Dingsong to be their bodyguard, but they were all rejected.
So why would he step out to protect Qianqian?
Shen Hanyu explained, “Uncle Guo and I are good friends. He promised to protect Qianqian until the murderer is caught.”
The way Sang Pengcheng looked at Shen Hanyu was a little strange. He’s quite impressive; to be able to become friends with Guo Dingsong despite his age.
He was more or less relieved and said seriously, “Even if Guo Dingsong is around, we can’t let our guard down. Qianqian, you have to be extra careful.”
This meant that he had agreed to let her return to Ming City.
Sang Qianqian smiled. “I know, Dad. I’ll be fine.”
“After so many twists and turns, I didn’t expect you two to still end up together.”
Sang Pengcheng looked at Shen Hanyu and said in a serious tone, “I’ll leave my daughter to you, so you must take good care of her. If you do something to her, I, as her father, will be the first one to take action.”
He thought of Xie Shi’an’s matter and couldn’t help but remind him again, “If you really can’t get along one day and want to break up, you must part on good terms. My daughter isn’t a clingy person; Once you’ve made things clear, she’ll naturally accept the truth.”
Shen Hanyu looked deeply into Sang Qianqian’s eyes. I would never break up with Qianqian, unless she… Doesn’t want me anymore.”
The last few words were spoken very softly.
Sang Qianqian was amused. “I wouldn’t abandon you for no reason.”
Sang Pengcheng was pleased. “That’s good. It’s best if the two of you can stay like this forever. That way, I’ll be happy.”
Raising a daughter was indeed more worrying than raising a boy. He was afraid that she would be deceived, bullied, met with a bad person, and entrusted by the wrong person.
Before Shen Hanyu had stepped into the Sang family’s house, he would have found it unbelievable if someone said he would agree to his daughter being with Shen Hanyu.
However, after a deep conversation with Shen Hanyu, Sang Pengcheng had a feeling that it would be difficult to find someone in this world who loved his daughter as much as Shen Hanyu did.
Shen Hanyu should be able to rest a.s.sured that Qianqian and Shen Hanyu were together.
—
At noon, Shen Hanyu had lunch at the Sang family’s house.
Sang Minglang said meaningfully, “A certain someone said in the past that she would be bringing a boyfriend home for dinner, but in the end, Dad and I have waited for a long time. We’ve been waiting for almost three months.”
“At least I found one. Some people haven’t found partners yet.”
Sang Qianqian blinked her eyes. “Brother, are you really not planning to go to Ming City again? Sister Xiao–”
Sang Minglang expressionlessly picked up a custard bun and stuffed it into her mouth. “Shut up and eat.”
Because of Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian’s relationship, Sang Pengcheng’s att.i.tude toward him had changed a lot.
At the dinner table, he even suggested Shen Hanyu to stay the night and return to Ming City with Sang Qianqian the next morning.
Sang Qianqian subconsciously looked at her brother, feeling that he might not be so kind as to let Shen Hanyu stay over.
To her surprise, Sang Minglang glanced at Shen Hanyu with an indifferent expression, “You’re not allowed to sleep with Qianqian. However, we have a guest room on the first floor, so you can stay there if you want.”
Of course, Shen Hanyu had never thought of sharing a room with Sang Qianqian and staying over at the Sang family’s house for a night.
To him, this was already a pleasant surprise.
