132 Don’t Come Over(2)
Before he could finish his sentence, he caught a glimpse of Shen Hanyu, Sang Qianqian, and Shen Shaofeng entering the room. He quickly strode forward to welcome them.
“Shaofeng, you’ve completely recovered? You can even walk now, congratulations.”
“Yeah, you can barely be considered a normal person.”
Shen Shaofeng laughed. “If I have time in the future, I’ll come to the center to play chess with you.”
“No problem, you’re welcome to visit often.” Guo Dingsong laughed heartily.
Shen Shaofeng’s eyes fell on Xie Shi’an and Ruan Xiaoshuang. “These two are?”
“The two children from the capital.”
Guo Dingsong introduced them to each other. He looked at Shen Hanyu and Xie Shi’an meaningfully. “You’re here to attend my birthday party today. Eat, drink, and have fun. Don’t cause any trouble for Uncle Guo.”
Shen Shaofeng didn’t know what was going on. “Dingsong, you’re going too far. Who would cause trouble for no reason?”
Guo Dingsong smiled but didn’t say anything. On the other hand, Sang Qianqian also didn’t expect to see Xie Shi’an again at Guo Dingsong’s birthday banquet.
She pretended not to see him, but Xie Shi’an’s eyes moved from her hand to her face, dark and unspeakable.
Shen Hanyu turned around with the girl in his arms, blocking Xie Shi’an’s sight.
“Didn’t you say you wanted to see the dojo? I’ll show you around.”
Sang Qianqian nodded her head obediently. It was really awkward to stay here. Both Xie Shi’an and Xia Sitong were here
It was better to avoid them.
When the two of them returned, the birthday banquet had already begun.
Guo Dingsong specially arranged for Xie Shi’an and Ruan Xiaoshuang to sit at another table so that they wouldn’t have to face awkwardness.
However, Xia Sitong was sitting at this table.
She wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but Sang Qianqian felt that Xia Sitong’s att.i.tude toward her was particularly solicitous in front of others. In fact, it could even be said that she was pretending to be close with her.
It made Sang Qianqian feel very uncomfortable and inexplicably repulsed.
Xia Sitong even poured a gla.s.s of wine for Shen Hanyu and brought it over personally, insisting on toasting him. She said she had done many wrong things in the past and hoped that he wouldn’t hold it against her.
Shen Shaofeng was very pleased. “Hanyu sees you as his own sister. Why would he care about what you did?” he said. “The past is the past. In the future, you all have to live well.”
Not long after, Xia Sitong picked up a call with an anxious expression, “There’s an important client in the studio. There’s a problem with the design plan, and I have to rush back to settle it.”
Shen Shaofeng hurriedly said, “Then let Hanyu send you there.”
Shen Hanyu’s expression was calm as he handed over the car keys. “Go there yourself.”
“Sitong’s hand was injured in an accident today. Don’t you see that it’s still bandaged? she can’t drive.”
Shen Shaofeng said, “Just make a short trip and come back quickly.”
“Qianqian, can I borrow Brother Hanyu from you for a while?”
Xia Sitong said embarra.s.sedly, “This happened so suddenly. I won’t do it again.”
Sang Qianqian wanted to say no, but when she met Shen Shaofeng’s eager eyes, she could only nod.
“Come back early. I’ll wait for you,” she said.
Shen Hanyu caressed the girl’s hair and replied gently, “Alright,” he said.
Not long after Shen Hanyu left.
Sang Qianqian went to the washroom. When she came out, she saw Xie Shi standing quietly in the shadow of the porch.
When she walked past Xie Shi’an without looking at him, he suddenly grabbed her hand and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Qianqian.”
His grip was extremely tight, and Sang Qianqian couldn’t break free. She was annoyed, “Xie Shi’an, what are you doing?”
“Qianqian, I’m sorry, but I really had my own difficulties. I had no choice but to leave…”
Xie Shi’an’s eyes were dazed from the wine. “Qianqian, what do I have to do to make you forgive me?”
“Xie Shi’an, you’re really strange.”
Sang Qianqian was speechless. “There’s nothing between us anymore. What is there for me to forgive you about?”
Xie Shi’an looked deeply at Sang Qianqian. He had never seen such determination on the girl’s face.
For some reason, he was reminded of the day when Shen Hanyu had hugged her and kissed her. Perhaps he was really drunk, or perhaps he was really too indignant.
The blood in Xie Shi’an’s head rushed up along with the smell of alcohol. Without a word, he hugged Sang Qianqian and lowered his head to kiss her.
Sang Qianqian’s mind buzzed. She used all her strength to push him away and gave Xie Shi’an a backhanded slap.
“Xie Shi’an, can you wake up? We’re already over!”
The pain on his face allowed Xie Shi’an to regain some of his consciousness.
The girl in front of him was no longer as friendly as she had been to him that day. Her black and white eyes were filled with shock and anger.
Xie Shi’an’s breathing was a little rough, and he said hoa.r.s.ely, “I’m sorry,” she said.
