41 Chapter 39: It’s Better to Die
Sang Pengcheng was thunderstruck when he received the news that something had happened to Sang Qianqian.
He couldn’t believe that his precious daughter was facing a life and death crisis again.
When Sang Pengcheng and Sang Minglang arrived at the hospital, Sang Qianqian was already in the emergency room.
Shen Hanyu was covered in blood, as if he had lost his soul. He stood outside the door without moving.
Sang Minglang’s face was ashen as he punched him fiercely and said sternly, “Shen Hanyu, you’ve harmed my sister!”
Shen Hanyu didn’t even dodge. After taking the punch, blood flowed out of his tightly pursed lips.
Sang Minglang wanted to attack again, but Sang Pengcheng sighed and said, “Minglang, forget it.”
Sang Pengcheng already knew the whole story from the bodyguard.
Why was his daughter so stupid?
She actually pounced over and used her body to block that slash for Shen Hanyu. Sang Pengcheng still couldn’t tell what his daughter was thinking about Shen Hanyu. She said that she liked Shen Hanyu, but she wanted to leave Ming City.
She said that she didn’t like him, but she… didn’t hesitate to use her life to save Shen Hanyu.
He wondered if his daughter would be able to survive this.
Sang Pengcheng couldn’t stop his tears.
A ruthless person in the business world who had never frowned no matter how many difficulties he encountered was now sitting on a bench outside. He covered his face and sobbed non-stop, making one’s heart ache.
Meanwhile, in a villa in Ming City.
Han Tianyi, who had been tied up and covered in blood, had already taken a shower and changed his clothes. He was playing cards with Wen Xu.
“So? I acted realistically just now, didn’t I?”
He had just lost a game of cards with Wen Xu and had to be punished. Wen Xu asked him to act as a hostage who was tortured by the robbers.
Han Tianyi was very satisfied with his performance.
Wen Xu was obviously a little uneasy and said perfunctorily, “It’s alright.”
“What do you mean okay? That’s my explosive performance, okay? Let me think about what I’ll let you play when you lose later.”
Han Tianyi thought of something and smiled mischievously. He whispered something in Wen Xu’s ear.
Wen Xu’s face darkened slightly. “I couldn’t tell. Han Tianyi, why are you so mean?! Didn’t you say you would live among a thousand flowers without getting a single leaf on you?”
Han Tianyi smiled. “I want to see what you look like when you’re wet.”
Wen Xu was so angry that he punched him. “Get lost!”
They were playing around when Wen Xu’s phone rang. It was his father.
“Where are you?” his father asked. “Aren’t you always with your Sister Qianqian? Why are you nowhere to be seen now that she’s been stabbed and hospitalized?”
Wen Xu’s expression changed. “Who stabbed her?”
“I don’t know. I heard the man wasn’t supposed to hurt her. I think she shielded someone.” Wen Xu’s father did not understand the situation, either. “Hurry up and come back!”
Wen Xu hung up. His hands were trembling. He grabbed the car keys from the table, turned around, and ran out.

San Qian’s consciousness was groggy and drifting, as if he had fallen into an endless dark abyss.
There was a long pause. There seemed to be low murmurs around her and soft noises.
She tried to open her eyes, but the light in front of her was very bright and blinding. Sang Qianqian instinctively wanted to raise her hand to cover her eyes.
“Miss Sang, are you awake?”
The nurse sensed her movement and exclaimed, “Don’t move—there’s an IV needle in the back of your hand.”
Sang Qianqian looked around in confusion. “Where, where is this?”
The nurse said quickly, “This is the ICU. You’ve been injured, and you just got out of surgery.”
This hospital was under the name of the Sang family, so the nurse was especially polite to Sang Qianqian.
Sang Qianqian struggled to remember what happened.
On the long street, Shen Hanyu, the man in the cap, pounced over.
Sang Qianqian also recalled what she said to Shen Hanyu in the car when she thought she was going to die. In an instant, she remembered everything.
She took a deep breath. “Am I going to die?”
“You won’t, Miss Sang. The most dangerous time has pa.s.sed.”
The nurse comforted her. “In a few days, when your condition stabilizes, you can be transferred to a normal ward.”
Sang Qianqian was speechless.
‘I’m not going to die, am I?’
Would Shen Hanyu go back on his word?
She thought of the nightmare where Shen Hanyu said, “Sang Qianqian, I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”
Then she thought about his Phoenix company. She thought about her dream of being locked in a mental hospital, the cruel torture she had been subjected to, and all the things that had happened when her father and she had fallen off a building. She felt as if she were seeing them.
She felt terrified and uneasy.
She used to think that dreams were just dreams after all.
However, the various plots in the dream mysteriously turned into reality. Although it was different from reality, it was more or less the same.
Suddenly, a thought occurred to Sang Qian.
If she died, could everything be stopped?
If she died, there would be no more tragedy in the dream. All the grudges between the Sang family and the Shen family could also be perfectly written off.
Moreover, it could completely cut off Shen Hanyu’s thoughts of revenge.
This was because he would feel embarra.s.sed to take revenge on the Sang family for Madam Shen’s death.
Sang thought about it and felt that it was better for her to die. It seemed to have the best outcome.
In any case, she had to leave Ming City. If she left alive, she might as well die. If she died, nothing will happen to the Sang family.
In the future, in an unfamiliar city, her life would no longer be troubled by Shen Hanyu. She would no longer have to worry about that nightmare.
Sang Qianqian had made up her mind. She said to the nurse, “Please call my father in.” Worried, she added, “I just want to see my father. Please don’t let anyone else in.” The nurse agreed quickly and went off with a nod.
Outside the ICU, the air was stifling.
Shen Hanyu’s face was pale, and his pupils were dark, like a cold statue.
He was still dressed in his b.l.o.o.d.y clothes. He stood there quietly, but so much time had pa.s.sed that the blood on his clothes had already coagulated into a dark red color.
The nurse hurried out and said to Sang Pengcheng, “President Sang, Miss Sang is awake. She wants to see you.”
Sang Pengcheng hurriedly got up and almost staggered into the ICU.
Shen Hanyu’s eyebrows finally moved. He raised his leg stiffly, as if he also wanted to see Sang Qianqian.
Sang Minglang stepped in front of him and said coldly, “My sister only wants to see my father!”
She didn’t even call her own brother in. Shen Hanyu still wanted to go in? Dream on! Shen Hanyu moved his lips but did not say anything.
Beside him, Wen Xu’s eyes were red as he looked at Shen Hanyu with mixed emotions. He already knew the reason for Sang Qianqian’s injury, and his mind was a mess. What the h.e.l.l was going on?
Why would Sister Qian foolishly block a knife for Shen Hanyu?
Who was the person who wanted to kill Shen Hanyu?

Sang Pengcheng didn’t stay long in the ICU. He came out with a heavy expression.
