After Going Viral on a Dating Show, I'm Pampered by All-Chapter 223: L: I tell myself to be selfish just this once.
Chapter 223: Chapter 223: L: I tell myself to be selfish just this once.
Sang Nanfeng successfully managed to escape from the deserted island by exposing his own identity and fabricating a story about company troubles, which left the director with no choice but to let him go.
As Sang Qingran was with him, she naturally left as well, in summary: the face was lost by Sang Nanfeng, but the luck was enjoyed by Sang Qingran together.
Once they left the deserted island, the first thing they did was to search for Qiaoqiao’s whereabouts, only to find out that she wasn’t allergic at all and had even gone shopping with Si Chenli.
Sang Nanfeng: "..."
His heart felt relieved, yet... he felt like he had lost face big time.
Rose Entertainment
Seeing Sister Qiao actually come to work at the company, the receptionist couldn’t help but become teary-eyed, especially since Sang Family’s brother had caused such a scene before, making it difficult for everyone not to know that Sister Qiao was sick.
Although she had come to the company previously, she hadn’t come to work, leading everyone to think that Sister Qiao’s days were numbered, so she probably wasn’t planning to engage in her career anymore.
Now it seemed they were wrong, their Sister Qiao was very healthy!
So today, the receptionist was particularly loud, "Sister Qiao, good morning!"
The shout startled not only Sang Qiao but also other artists and staff passing by, who turned their heads to look in her direction.
"Good morning, you’re quite spirited today." Sang Qiao gave a light smile and continued her steps towards the upstairs.
She held her phone and sent a message to Si Chenli, Qiaoqiao is sleepy: "Good morning."
After intending to put away her phone, she received another message, L: "I’m at Jiangcheng Third Hospital today, won’t be back for a couple of days, come by and I’ll give you a check-up."
Qiaoqiao is sleepy: "Okay."
Sang Qiao had already taken the elevator up and had to wait until it reached the next floor before getting out and going back in to take it down, walking quickly out of the company.
The receptionist who had just thought Sister Qiao was going to work hard: "?" She’s... leaving already?
Jiangcheng City Third Hospital
When Sang Qiao arrived, Shangguan Yuan was already waiting for her at the entrance, eagerly running over to her as soon as he spotted her figure, "My brother is attending to other patients, so we’ll need to wait a bit. I’ll take you upstairs to wait."
"Okay, no problem, I’m not in a hurry." Sang Qiao followed him up the stairs.
After Shangguan Lin finished checking on the other patients, he conducted a thorough examination for Sang Qiao. The three of them walked out of the examination room, one after the other.
Shangguan Lin turned around to look at Shangguan Yuan beside him, "Why don’t you go downstairs and buy us two breakfasts?"
"Okay." Shangguan Yuan knew that his brother must have something he wanted to say to Qiao alone, hence the deliberate excuse to send him away.
He wasn’t foolish enough to really go buy them breakfast but went downstairs to have his own breakfast instead.
"Is there something wrong with my health?" Sang Qiao looked up at L, not understanding why there would be something Shangguan Yuan couldn’t hear, and asked in confusion.
"No, Sang Qiao, your health is very good, and it will get better and better. Congratulations, you are healthy now." Shangguan Lin’s dark eyes lowered slightly, his gaze falling on her fair and delicate face.
"All of this is thanks to you, and I thank you," Sang Qiao said, her red lips curving up into a smile.
Her eyes brightened when she laughed, as if filled with all the light in the world, dazzling and impossible to look away from. Shangguan Lin lowered his head and also smiled.
The selfishness and affection concealed in his heart, he finally wanted to put an end to today.
"Sang Qiao, during the time you were ill, a man came looking for you and asked about you. At that time, I thought he was Si Chenli, so I deceived him by saying that you were about to die."
"Hmm?" Sang Qiao was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting this episode.
"He believed it and was very upset. He kept begging me to tell him where you were. I just said I didn’t know. Later, I found out that he was your fourth brother, not Si Chenli. Do you know why I didn’t want to tell him any bit of your news at that time?"
Shangguan Lin spoke these words softly, yet he appeared strong and resolute.
Sang Qiao, being so oblivious to emotions and having such a family, Si Chenli must have put in a lot of effort to make Sang Qiao’s heart flutter.
This was beyond doubt.
"Because I didn’t want to see you and him getting along so amicably. I told myself that I would be selfish just this once. You only belonged to me for that brief period. If Si Chenli really believed you were dead and let go of you, then he wouldn’t be worthy of your love. If he was still waiting for you..."
"All that doesn’t matter anymore." Sang Qiao seemed to sense what he was about to say and couldn’t help frowning.
"It matters to me. These are my love confessions that I never expressed. I need to justify myself, and give you a closure too. Later on, you should live well with Si Chenli."
Shangguan Lin couldn’t help extending his hand, wanting to touch her head. Sang Qiao stepped back.
His hand, hanging in mid-air, fell short and he casually withdrew it. "Sang Qiao, if he ever treats you poorly or if one day you two still can’t make it to the end, come to me. Consider me."
"L, don’t wait for me. Look at others. Ah Li and I will surely make it to the very end."
Before she met Si Chenli, Sang Qiao had been single since birth, with no romantic prospects. But once she got together with Si Chenli, romantic opportunities began to bloom, one after another.
For someone as insignificant as Young Master Liang, rejection would suffice, but L made her feel troubled. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
They had been such good friends...
"Um, I’ll try." Shangguan Lin’s voice was very soft. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand to hold Sang Qiao’s, kissed the back of her hand briefly, and then let go.
His gesture was so quick that Sang Qiao didn’t even have time to react before her hand was released.
"It’s just a courtesy, don’t overthink it. I probably won’t come back after I leave this time, so no need to see me off. Goodbye." Shangguan Lin left with a light laugh, striding away.
Sang Qiao looked at the back of her hand and then went to the restroom to wash her hands.
Lu Jiao, who was hiding behind a wall, was ecstatic after capturing this scene. Sang Qiao was really bold, daring to have an affair while dating Mr. Si.
She flicked through the photos on her phone and sent them to Si Chenli without hesitation. She really wanted to see how Sang Qiao would explain this to Si Chenli!
"Jiaojiao, what are you doing here? Let’s go." Madam Lu came out of the consultation room and called out impatiently.
"Okay, Mom, are you done with the checkup?" Lu Jiao quickly caught up, supporting Madam Lu’s wrist.
"Uh-huh, no more crazy dog-like behavior from now on, understand? You can’t mess with the Sang Family; they’re now protected by Mr. Si."
Madam Lu was angry that Lu Jiao was always restless, but after all, she was her only child. She could only be more patient in guiding her.
"I understand. But what if I could get Mr. Si to be with me?"
Lu Jiao remembered how, because of the crazy dog incident, she not only lost five million yuan but also got a scolding from Mr. Lu. She almost had her allowance cut off, which was very upsetting.
Fortunately, the Lu Family was ruled by her mother, and Mr. Lu, being a son-in-law, didn’t have much real power.
