Chapter 308:1 Have Something to Tell You
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After more than a year, Shen Hanyu once again ate at the same table with the Sang family. During the meal, Sang Pengcheng kept reminding him that his heart was as sincere as when Shen Hanyu came to propose marriage last year.
What worried him the most was the Zhen family’s att.i.tude. He was afraid that if the Zhen family objected to the relationship, his daughter would inevitably get hurt.
Now that Zhen Yiping had come to visit in person, his sincerity was enough to dispel his concerns, so he was much more amiable to Shen Hanyu.
As for Wen Xu and Sang Minglang, they had more or less expected today’s situation and naturally did not have any objections.
The meal ended peacefully.
“Shen Hanyu, come out for a moment. I have something to tell you,” Wen Xu said to Shen Hanyu.
Sang Qianqian did not know what Wen Xu wanted to do and hurriedly said, “What can’t you say here?”
…..
“Sis, what are you afraid of? He’s my brother-in-law now, so I won’t make things difficult for him.”
Wen Xu laughed. “I really just want to say a few words to him.”
Sang Qianqian was still in doubt, but Shen Hanyu had already stood up. He gestured for her not to worry and said gently, “I’ll be right back.”
She didn’t know what Wen Xu was thinking, but instead of staying in the warm house, he brought Shen Hanyu to the garden.
“What does Wen Xu need to say? Why does he have to hide it so much?”
Through the gla.s.s window, Sang Qianqian looked at their backs and was slightly speechless. “Are they afraid I’ll hear them?”
“Who cares? It’s for your own good.”
Sang Minglang asked, “By the way, you and Shen Hanyu haven’t gotten your marriage certificate yet, have you?”
“Not yet,” Sang Qianqian replied honestly.
“Since the misunderstanding has been cleared up and you two have decided to spend the rest of your lives together, it’s better to get your marriage certificate as soon as possible.”
“Please don’t let things drag on like last time,” Sang Pengcheng urged. “If you delay it anymore, it’ll just cause more trouble.”
Sang Qianqian curled her lips slightly. “We’ll get the certificate immediately when we return to —
In the garden, the leaves had long since withered, and the spa.r.s.e branches outlined the shadows in the night, emitting a bleak chill.
Wen Xu stopped in his tracks. When he turned around, he could see Sang Qianqian smiling and saying something to Sang Pengcheng in the well-lit living room.
Shen Hanyu followed his gaze and his eyes fell on the girl’s face. His eyes suddenly became gentle.
Even his tone when speaking to Wen Xu was calm and peaceful. “What do you want to say to me?”
“I grew up with my sister and I’ve seen many people pursuing her, but she’s dead set on you. Shen Hanyu, you really are lucky.” Wen Xu said with a sneer in his eyes.
“Thank you,” Shen Hanyu said with a smile, “I’m indeed quite lucky.”
Wen Xu’s hair stood on end as if he had swallowed a fly. He sneered, “Don’t be too smug, Shen Hanyu. You won’t be so lucky every time.”
He glanced at Shen Hanyu. “To be honest, I couldn’t bear to see my sister upset after you broke up with her, so I went to the capital. Even though you’ve avoided meeting her, I’ve personally witnessed Fang Lan coming to the Zhen family’s residence for two consecutive nights within the past three days. She even stayed over at the Zhen residence for one night. Did she go to look for you?”
“She asked for my help with her work,” Shen Hanyu did not deny it.
“Whether it’s a problem at work or something else, I’m afraid only you know best. My sister believes that nothing is going on between you and Fang Lan. Shen Hanyu, you’d better not break up with my sister so easily, or else…” Wen Xu’s expression turned cold.
He slowly walked toward Shen Hanyu and whispered something in a voice that only Shen Hanyu could hear.
Shen Hanyu’s expression changed slightly, and his pupils shrank. He looked at Wen Xu with a strange expression, but he quickly returned to normal.
“I’m quite curious. If that day really comes, I wonder who my sister will choose between you and me?” Wen Xu raised his eyebrows.
Shen Hanyu’s eyes were emotionless as he said, “Don’t worry, I won’t give your sister a choice.”
Shen Hanyu had already returned to the living room, but Wen Xu still stood outside for a while.
In fact, he had only said those words to Shen Hanyu on purpose, so that he would feel a sense of crisis and not dare to leave her sister like last time.
This was because Wen Xu did not have the courage to let Sang Qianqian choose. It was like this many years ago, and it was the same many years later.
When he was young, his attachment to Sang Qianqian was not just because of a sibling relationship.
Later on, as he grew older, he hesitated. Before he could tell Sang Qianqian about his feelings, he saw the merciless scene of Sang Qianqian rejecting Han Tianyi’s confession.
Originally, he and Han Tianyi had a close relationship with her. However, ever since Han Tianyi confessed to her, Sang Qianqian had intentionally distanced herself from him.
Therefore, Wen Xu didn’t dare to say anything and could only try his best to maintain his Younger Brother image.
After that, Sang Qianqian met Shen Hanyu and fell in love at first sight.
Wen Xu pretended that nothing had happened and helped her pursue Shen Hanyu until she gave up on him.
Later on, when Sang Qianqian went overseas to study, Wen Xu went to look for her, thinking that he could finally let Sang Qianqian know his true feelings.
However, he saw that Xie Shi’an had appeared beside her.
When Wen Xu arrived, he saw the two of them in a cafe. They seemed to be chatting happily as Sang Qianqian was constantly smiling.
Xie Shi’an had been by Sang Qianqian’s side for four years, but Wen Xu never had the chance to say those words he had been suppressing in his heart.
He didn’t dare to say it out loud.
When Sang Qianqian reunited with Shen Hanyu, they fell in love and got married.
Wen Xu’s thoughts, which had never seen the light of day, had really become a story of him alone.
This was until a few months ago when Sang Qianqian and Shen Hanyu broke up.
When Wen Xu came to Yuecheng to see her, he saw her forced smile and her sad appearance when no one was around. Those thoughts that had been hidden for many years eventually stirred again.
He had once wondered if she would accept him if he told her his true feelings; If she had a new boyfriend by her side, she might not be so sad.
It was a pity that he had Yun Li by his side at that time.
Thus, Wen Xu couldn’t say anything in the end.
He would never have the chance to say it, as not long after, Sang Qianqian found out the truth about Shen Hanyu’s breakup with her, and she immediately went overseas to seek medical help.
After that, she made up with Shen Hanyu.
His emotions that had once been in turmoil should be completely buried even if the dust had settled.
“Wen Xu, what are you thinking about? Are you that unafraid of the cold?”
Sang Qianqian called out to him from afar, “Hurry up and come in!”
“I’m on my way.”
Wen Xu responded and dialed Yun Li’s phone as he walked back. “Are you free now? If you have time, come to my sister’s house.”
“Now?”
Yun Li was slightly stunned. “Qianqian said that her father is inviting President Shen to dinner tonight. Would it be appropriate for me to go?”
“It’s appropriate.”
Wen Xu smiled. “I have to return to Ming City tomorrow morning. I’ll take you to meet my sister tonight. I’ll also let you see… My brother-in-law.”
Yun Li was speechless.
She didn’t hold her phone properly and it fell to the ground with a clatter..
