When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 549: Return to the Sheng Family (Part 9)
Sheng Jianan’s statement is very likely to provoke questions about the "mistake" in his words, especially leading one to immediately consider whether he had committed infidelity during the marriage.
A bold reporter directly asked the question, but Sheng Jianan unusually did not shy away, and answered openly: "The person I used to be, held myself above others, not knowing how to cherish someone. This has once made me lose her. As for what you all want to ask, your imaginations are overly abundant. I, Sheng Jianan, have only one wife, only one lover, only one woman."
If another person had said such words, it would obviously seem like intentional hype, but who needs that kind of hype when the person is Sheng Jianan? Once the news broke, it stirred up a fervor akin to a feeding frenzy.
When Tang Yanqi saw this piece of news, she was also taken aback. Although Sheng Jianan would say things to her that were either touching or embarrassing, saying such things in public like this was indeed a first.
Sheng Jianan, though arrogant and domineering, is in the end still somewhat reserved when it comes to emotions.
Tang Yanqi read those audacious declarations twice and couldn’t help but smile; she understood what he meant, she was his one and only.
At night, Tang Yanqi took a bath and lay on the bed reading. Shortly after, Sheng Jianan also came out of the bathroom and walked over to her, sitting down: "Were you uncomfortable today?"
"No, I’m fine. I can’t be uncomfortable every day."
"Want to..."
Before Sheng Jianan could finish his sentence, his phone rang. The phone was on the bedside table, and Tang Yanqi also glanced over.
It was a call from Mrs. Sheng.
Sheng Jianan answered the call directly in front of her: "Mom?"
"Jianan, Yanqi is back, how could you not tell us? Do we need to find such things out from the newspaper?"
There was a hint of reproach in Mrs. Sheng’s tone, but Sheng Jianan did not explain, letting her speak: "Find some time to bring Yanqi back for a visit. No matter what, we are still a family."
"Okay, I’ll ask her."
Sheng Jianan didn’t agree directly, and his attitude clearly made Mrs. Sheng on the other end dissatisfied. However, Sheng Jianan didn’t give her a chance to say more, directly hanging up the phone, and looked at Tang Yanqi: "My mom wants us to go back sometime, do you want to go?"
"Can we not go if I don’t want to?"
"Of course."
Without hesitation, Sheng Jianan responded. Although his mother ostensibly accepted Tang Yanqi, Sheng Jianan knew they must have made her feel uncomfortable, especially when Grandfather passed away.
If Tang Yanqi holds any grievances towards them, he would allow her never to face them.
"I will not let you suffer again. You married me, not the Sheng Family."
Tang Yanqi smiled: "Let’s go, they’re not going to eat me alive."
What’s past is past. Now, Mrs. Sheng doesn’t have anything that can threaten her, nor is she afraid of her threats. She doesn’t want to leave the person before her, and no one can make her leave.
She once did not fully trust him and had weaknesses, but now she fears nothing. Sheng Jianan’s attitude further reassures her.
Whether Mrs. Sheng accepts her or not, she doesn’t care. It’s not about disrespecting her opinions but someone who would do something to harm her; she truly does not see anything worthy of respect.
The issue of the car accident—though she has no evidence—Tang Yanqi believes in her judgment. Not mentioning it is merely to avoid making things awkward for the person in front of her.
