I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot

247 Retain(2)

On the way here, she had sent Shen Hanyu a message, asking when he would be home.

All she got was a cold reply, “I won’t be back tonight.”

No matter how slow Sang Qianqian was, she could tell that Shen Hanyu was avoiding her on purpose.

She was going back to Yuecheng the next day, and she had to see Shen Hanyu tonight.

Fang Lan hesitated for a moment. Forget it. Since she had already come out to see Sang Qianqian today, she might as well be a good person to the end.

She made up her mind and said, “Alright, I’ll bring you to see him. But you don’t have to go to the Zhen family’s residence. He’s just outside.”

Even though she said that, Fang Lan did not dare to show up in front of Shen Hanyu. She only sent him a message and left in advance.

On the other hand, even though he knew that Fang Lan wouldn’t say anything she should not, Shen Hanyu was still annoyed.

When he received Fang Lan’s message, he had just received a call from Old Lady Zhen. He was leaning against his car with a heavy heart.

As such, when Sang Qianqian arrived, he did not even have the time to get into the car to avoid her.

In the cold autumn night, the two of them looked at each other silently from a few steps away.

The girl’s eyes were red and teary. Shen Hanyu couldn’t stand the look in her eyes and looked away.

He had originally thought that Sang Qianqian would question him about why he was avoiding her even though he was clearly here. However, she just looked at him with tears in her eyes and said in a soft voice, “When you were injured, did it hurt a lot?”

the veins on Shen Hanyu’s forehead twitched violently. He almost thought that Sang Qianqian had already found out the truth.

His throat was a little dry. “There’s no point in saying all this now.”

The main point was that their lives could no longer be connected in the future.

Sang Qianqian’s tears could no longer be held back.

“I’m sorry, Hanyu,”

She cried and said, “I didn’t know that you were injured at that time. I thought you were gone, so I had no choice but to pretend to agree to marry Xie Shi’an. I wanted to hypnotize Xie Shi’an and make him tell the truth in front of all the media and guests at the wedding, but I didn’t expect Ruan Cheng to see through me…”

Shen Hanyu’s thin lips moved. Was that why Ruan Cheng’s men had tied her up and thrown her in the room that night?

“Hanyu, I’ve never betrayed you. You’re the one I love, and you’ll always be the one I love.”

Sang Qianqian explained in a trembling voice. She thought that Shen Hanyu was avoiding her because he was concerned about her relationship with Xie Shi’an.

“I only have one real wedding in my life. From the moment you put this ring on me, I’ve always been your wife in my heart.”

Sang Qianqian stretched out her hand. On her ring finger was the ‘Pink Love’ ring that Shen Hanyu had once given her. It was also the ring that she had worn when she and Shen Hanyu got married.

In the dim night, the diamond on the ring was so bright that even the darkness couldn’t block it.

It had been tempered by fire and soaked in hot blood. When they first came to the capital, Sang Qianqian had returned it to Shen Hanyu and had temporarily lost it.

After that, Shen Hanyu returned the ring to her.

“When you gave the ring back to me, I’ve been thinking that I’ll wear it and come to you one day.”

Sang Qianqian’s eyes were filled with tears as she hugged Shen Hanyu tightly. “Hanyu, if you’re willing, we can still be husband and wife, just like before, okay?”

The girl’s face was pressed against his chest, and Shen Hanyu could feel that his clothes were wet.

Shen Hanyu stood there stiffly. He felt as if the spot that was wet from her tears was on fire.

The boiling temperature burned him, so hot that his tightly-tensed nerves were about to break.

For a moment, he wanted to say yes no matter what. However, the last bit of his rationality still allowed his muddled consciousness to wake up slightly.

He grabbed Sang Qianqian’s shoulders and pushed her away.

“After so many things have happened, do you think we should still be together?”

Shen Hanyu said slowly, word by word, “I’m used to having everything under my control. However, you’re the only exception. To be honest, I don’t like the feeling of losing control of my life after meeting you.”

His pitch-black pupils were dark and cold. “We were indeed married, but we are still not considered husband and wife. I don’t think there’s a need for us to start over.”

Sang Qianqian looked at Shen Hanyu with reddened eyes. “Hanyu, do you really think so?”

Shen Hanyu did not say a word and forced himself to look away from Sang Qianqian. He turned around and was about to get into the car when Sang Qianqian ran after him and hugged him from behind.

“I know I didn’t do well in many places in the past, but I won’t do it again in the future.”

Sang Qianqian sobbed. “I’ll try my best to be a good wife. Hanyu, please don’t abandon me, okay?”

Shen Hanyu’s heart felt like it had been shattered, and his internal organs ached. His throat seemed to be blocked by something, and even breathing was difficult.

“Sang Qianqian, I really wanted to be your husband in the past. I always wanted to see you.”

Shen Hanyu suppressed his emotions and said in a hoarse voice, “But after walking on the edge of life and death, I realized that I don’t love you as much as I thought I would. It doesn’t matter even if I don’t see you for more than a month. Are my words clear enough?”

“I don’t believe you.”

Sang Qianqian’s heart ached. “Hanyu, even if you want to lie to me, you should find a better reason.”

If he didn’t love her, how could he give up his life for her? It was like this in his previous life, and it was the same in this life.

Rather than believing that Shen Hanyu did not love her, she might as well believe that the sun would rise from the west tonight.

“Hanyu, can you tell me what happened?”

Sang Qianqian hugged his waist even more tightly. “If anything happens, we’ll face it together…”

“Nothing happened,”

Shen Hanyu cut her off and said in a low voice, “Sang Qianqian, you know that I’ve died once. I really don’t want to make the same mistake in the future.”

With that, he pried away Sang Qianqian’s fingers and got into the car without looking back.

Sang Qianqian watched as the car quickly disappeared from her sight. She crouched down weakly and buried her head in her arms, crying out loud.
