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

I Was Just Curious, That’s All

Under the street lights, the girl’s blue dress seemed to shine like a bunch of stars.

It was either from nervousness or the weather, but she crossed her arms and shivered slightly. She looked pitiful.

Seeing that he’d stopped, Sang Qianqian also stopped with a look of panic in her eyes.

Shen Hanyu looked at her, his eyes dark and gloomy. “Why?”

Sang Qianqian’s hair stood on end from his gaze. “What do you mean why?”

“You didn’t have to care about Sitong.” Shen Hanyu said in a deep voice.

Sang Qianqian thought that he was going to ask something. “The situation was urgent, so I didn’t have time to think.”

But in fact, he still wanted to ponder.

Xia Sitong and Shen Hanyu had a close relationship. If she’d saved Xia Sitong, Shen Hanyu might show some mercy to the Sang family once he became a significant figure in the business world.

However, this thought only flashed through his mind.

Shen Hanyu stared at her without a word.

This cold, judgmental gaze made Sang Qianqian’s heart tighten for no reason.

Fortunately, Shen Hanyu didn’t say anything else.

However, she didn’t know if it was her imagination, but he seemed to have slowed down and tried his best to walk beside her.

The lights elongated their shadows. The surroundings were tranquil, with only the sound of crickets hopping around in the grass.

“Shen Hanyu, there’s something I’ve been wanting to tell you.”

Sang Qianqian hesitated but eventually said, “You don’t have to take my confession to heart. I’ll pretend that it never happened in the future.”

She lowered her eyes and said softly, “Since I was young, the people around me have always given in to me. There was nothing I couldn’t get. Thus, suddenly being rejected aroused my curiosity. However, it was just pure curiosity and nothing more. Once I understood what it was, I decided to let go.”

These words were tactful, but Sang Qianqian believed that Shen Hanyu would understand her meaning. She didn’t really like him that much. She was just curious, that’s all.

She didn’t expect Shen Hanyu to react to her words. In one breath, she said everything she had on her mind.

“This time, Dad was willing to help your mother because he really wanted to make friends with your father. Moreover, arranging a consultation with medical experts is not troublesome for the Sang family. Therefore, you don’t need to feel that you owe my dad anything, and you don’t need to choose to study in the same school as me just to thank him.”

There was a huge difference in ranking between foreign universities and majors.

Sang Qianqian majored in medicine. Although the school she applied to was more authoritative in medicine, it was only ranked in the top 20 international universities.

With Shen Hanyu’s abilities, he could quickly get into better-ranked universities like Harvard and Oxford.

“I won’t risk my future just because I’m grateful,” Shen Hanyu said calmly.

Sang Qianqian heaved a sigh of relief and said, “That’s great. You don’t know this, but I was terrified that you’d listen to Dad and choose to go to the same school as me.”

The soft street light shone on her porcelain-white and beautiful face. The girl’s eyebrows were curved, and her long, curled eyelashes fluttered. It was as if stars were shining in her eyes.

It was obvious that she was pleased to be able to go to a different school from Shen Hanyu.

Shen Hanyu shifted his gaze to the shadow on the ground.

The shadows jumped up and down, overlapping with each other from time to time. The two were talking just now, unknowingly closer to each other. The girl beside him had a light, sweet, floral scent.

Shen Hanyu took a step to the side with a calm expression, and the distance between the two figures suddenly widened.

...

When the two arrived at the police station, police officers took Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian to different interrogation rooms.

By the time Sang Qianqian was done with her statement, Xia Sitong and Shen Hanyu also came out. Even Xia Zhixin and Shen Shaofeng had rushed over.

Xia Zhixin ran over to Xia Sitong and asked nervously, “Sitong, are you okay? I heard that something happened to you and was worried to death!”

Xia Sitong threw herself into Xia Zhixin’s arms and cried her heart out. Xia Zhixin comforted her gently.

On the other end, Shen Shaofeng saw Sang Qianqian and was very surprised. “Why is Miss Sang here?”

Shen Hanyu briefly explained what happened, and Shen Shaofeng was grateful. “It’s a good thing that Miss Sang reached out to help. After this, Zhixin and I will bring Hanyu and Sitong over to thank you personally.”

“Hanyu.” He turned to Shen Hanyu saying, “It’s getting late. Please send Miss Sang home. I don’t want Mr. Sang to worry.”

Sang Qianqian didn’t dare to let Shen Hanyu send her. “No need. My chauffeur is already waiting outside.”

“Let’s go.” Shen Hanyu said indifferently.

He sent her out of the police station. “You’d better go to the hospital tomorrow to check your hand.” contemporary romance

Sang Qianqian was slightly startled, and she softly thanked him.

Shen Hanyu turned around and went back inside the building.

Xia Zhixin was saying something to Shen Shaofeng emotionally. “There’s an 80% chance that the Sang family is behind this!”

Shen Shaofeng was stunned, then he found it funny. “Zhixin, how is that possible?”

“It’s President Han’s son’s birthday today, and he specially invited Sitong and me over. I’ve only talked to President Han for a while when Sang Minglang called and weirdly asked me if I’ve recovered. He even told me to drink less.”

Xia Zhixin didn’t believe that Sang Minglang would be so kind, “For all we know, he might be the one who caused Sitong’s accident!”

“This matter can’t be related to the Sang family.”

Shen Hanyu denied it in a low voice. “If the Sang family wanted to make things difficult for Sitong, they wouldn’t have let Sang Qianqian get hurt so easily.”

Xia Zhixin was stunned. “Sang Qianqian got injured?”

Just now, he had been so focused on his daughter that he didn’t even look at Sang Qianqian.

“The child’s forehead is red and swollen, and she cut her palm.”

Shen Shaofeng’s expression was serious. “Zhixin, you can’t suspect people without any evidence.”

“Dad, this should be an accident.”

Xia Sitong chimed in, “Sang Qianqian’s neck was grabbed by that drunkard, and her life was almost in danger. She might’ve really been in trouble if it wasn’t for Brother Hanyu’s timely arrival.”

“I’m sorry. I assumed that out of panic.”

Xia Zhixin patted his head, “It’s mainly because of Sang Minglang’s phone call. It was too much of a coincidence.”

It just happened that he was meeting Han Shangrong, so how could it not be suspicious?

“Maybe it was just a coincidence. I think we’d better wait for the police’s decision and not speculate things.” Shen Shaofeng said.

The police’s results came out very quickly.

It turned out that the drunkard was an unemployed vagrant. After getting drunk, he had watched those kinds of movies online and had wanted to go out to find some excitement. Who knew that he would bump into Xia Sitong? Under the influence of alcohol, he instantly had evil intentions.

He really had nothing to do with the Sang family.

…

The next day, Sang Qianqian went to the hospital. The wound on her palm was quite deep, and the doctor prescribed her some medicine.

She didn’t expect that Shen Shaofeng wasn’t just bluffing when he said he’d personally visit her to thank her.

Two days later, Shen Shaofeng brought Shen Hanyu and Xia Sitong to the Sang family with a big gift.
