I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot-Chapter 451 Tell Me Your Reason

451 Tell Me Your Reason

She wasn't that stupid. She knew her own strength as well as Shen Hanyu's strength. From the beginning to the end, she never wanted to confront him.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have tried so hard to pretend to be mentally retarded, and she wouldn't have left the capital immediately after giving herself away.

Hiding behind the scenes, stirring up waves, toying with everyone, watching Shen Hanyu and Sang Qiaqian separate with her own eyes, watching Shen Hanyu suffer in pain and struggle to deal with all kinds of troubles, hehe, that would be fun.

She smiled as she looked at Sang Qianqian and Xie Shi'an, who were obviously relieved.

She found it funny. Did these two people think that there was still room for redemption? That was why they were so calm.

Unfortunately, she would not give them any chance to turn the tables.

In her chessboard, everyone was just a chess piece. Everyone would follow her predetermined plan and complete the game step by step.

This will go on until the end.

Shen Hanyu did receive a call from Sang Qianqian. She said that she would wait for Sang Pengcheng to return from abroad and settle the matters at the Beijing branch before returning to Ming City.

He did not have the slightest doubt because he had never thought that she would lie to him. It wasn't that he didn't feel strange, but she rarely took the initiative to contact him after that.

However, he had no time to spare and did not even have time to think. All his energy was invested in the search and rescue.

As time passed, Shen Shaofeng's search and rescue finally came to an end. Even though they had found his phone by the beach, there was no miracle in the end.

The date of the funeral was soon set.

Shen Hanyu, who had not slept for days and nights, called Sang Qianqian and told her the news in a hoarse voice.

Sang Qianqian was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone. "Hanyu, I might not be able to come back."

Her reason was that her father could not come back from abroad due to health reasons. Therefore, she was now in charge of the Beijing branch company's matters and couldn't leave at all.

Her excuse was too clumsy. Shen Hanyu hung up the phone and contacted Sang Pengcheng.

Sang Pengcheng was playing chess with Uncle Zhong, laughing loudly on the other end of the phone.

His body didn't have any abnormalities. Moreover, he didn't even know that Sang Minglang was injured.

Therefore, she had been lying to him ever since Sang Qianqian had sent him back.

It was obvious she had no intention of returning to Ming City.

Shen Hanyu's face darkened as he dialed the number of the people Jian Zheng had left in the capital.

The news he received was that, during this period, Sang Qianqian had indeed gone to the company every day to deal with some matters. However, Xie Shi'an would pick her up every morning and night.

Sang Qianqian said that she didn't know much about the company's affairs and that Xie Shi'an was there to help her.

After all, they were only bodyguards. Since Sang Qianqian had already explained, they did not dare to ask questions or suspect anything.

Shen Hanyu didn't know what had happened to her, but the night before they parted, she was clearly fine.

She even cried and explained to him that nothing had happened between her and Xie Shi'an. So what was wrong with her?

Perhaps it was because his face was too dark and cold, but Guo Muyang was shocked when he pushed the door open.

"Hanyu, you… My condolences."

Guo Muyang thought that he was like this because of Shen Shaofeng, so he tried to persuade him dryly, thinking that he was smart enough to change the topic. "Have you called Miss Sang? When will she arrive today? Are you going to pick her up personally, or should I arrange for someone to pick her up?"

The funeral was scheduled for tomorrow at noon. If Sang Qianqian was going to be back, it would definitely be today.

Guo Muyang subconsciously felt that Shen Hanyu's face turned even uglier when he asked this question.

He was a little confused. "What's wrong?"

"No need. She can't come back."

Shen Hanyu stood up expressionlessly and walked out.

Guo Muyang was stunned. Sang Qianqian couldn't come back?

How could this be?

This was Shen Shaofeng's funeral, so it wasn't a small matter. As the Shen family's daughter-in-law, she wasn't even going to attend her father-in-law's funeral. What was the meaning of this? 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎ｌ.𝚘ｒｇ

However, Sang Qianqian really didn't return.

The funeral was not very ostentatious. Only the Shen family's old friends and relatives came. There weren't a lot of people.

However, almost all of them had been invited to Shen Hanyu's wedding and knew that Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian were husband and wife.

Thus, many of them were wondering why Sang Qianqian wasn't by Shen Hanyu's side at a time like this.

Despite that, no one dared to ask a single question when they saw his frosty expression.

After the funeral, Shen Hanyu silently kowtowed three times in front of the grave and left Ming City that day.

"What happened to Hanyu and Miss Sang?"

Rong Ce was confused. He asked Guo Muyang, "Didn't you say that they made up a long time ago?"

"I don't know."

Guo Muyang shook his head and sighed. "I hope Hanyu will have good luck this time."

Instinctively, something big must have happened between the two of them. Otherwise, with Sang Qianqian's personality, she would've attended Shen Shaofeng's funeral.

Shen Hanyu wouldn't be able to salvage the situation so easily if Sang Qianqian had decided not to return in such a decisive manner.

In the Beijing branch office.

Sang Qianqian leaned back in her chair tiredly, her eyes slightly closed.

The air conditioner in the office was a little cold. She frowned and subconsciously hugged her shoulders.

In her trance, it was as if someone had covered her with a thin blanket, and a soft warmth wrapped around her.

"Today was Father-in-law's funeral, but I didn't go back. I didn't even call."

Sang Qianqian still did not open her eyes. She was lost in her own thoughts as she muttered, "Shi'an, am I being too cruel?"

"You may have been cruel there, but you probably have a reason for doing so."

His deep and hoarse voice sounded like thunder in his ears.

Her entire body trembled. She opened her eyes abruptly and met Shen Hanyu's dark and mysterious eyes.

Her nerves tensed up unconsciously as she stared at him in a daze.

"Don't you recognize me?" Shen Hanyu said meaningfully.

Sang Qianqian's consciousness, which had been shaken to the point of falling apart, finally began to slowly gather together.

She shook her head almost instinctively, but she immediately stopped. "You, why are you here?"

His gaze swept past the woman's pale face. She was like a frightened bird, hugging the blanket stiffly, as her body slightly trembled.

He turned around and poured a cup of hot tea. He grabbed her cold hand and stuffed the cup into it.

He then pulled a chair over and sat down opposite her. He asked calmly, "Why? Can't I come?"

The teacup was very warm, and the steam made Sang Qianqian's eyelashes uncontrollably moist to the point where it was about to spill out of her eyes.

She lowered her eyes. "If you're here to ask me why I'm not going back, I might not be able to give you a satisfactory reason."

"Not necessarily."

Shen Hanyu looked at her steadily. "Tell me your reason."

Before he came, Sang Qianqian had thought about how to say those heartless words to him many times.

However, when it came to her mouth, her brain could not help but say, "The company is very busy right now, so I can't leave..."

"Yes, you said that before."

Shen Hanyu's expression was calm and his tone could even be said to be peaceful. "Anything else?"
