224 A Big Gift
The man did not seem to hear the knocking on the door. His cold and dark eyes did not move away from the photo for a long time.
Guo Muyang simply pushed the door open and went straight in. He immediately coughed a few times from the heavy smoke in the room.
“Miss Sang is going to marry Xie Shi’an. Did you know about it?” he asked after a moment of hesitation.
Actually, that was a useless question. Even Fang Lan could recognize the bride in the photo as Sang Qianqian, so how could Shen Hanyu not recognize her?
Shen Hanyu’s eyes were hidden in the darkness, and only the red dot on his fingertip was visible.
He didn’t reply to Guo Muyang’s question. His voice was extremely hoarse as he asked, “Has Uncle Guo come to Beijing?”
“Yes, he’s already at the wedding venue.” Guo Muyang said, “I’ll be going there later.
The Guo family and Xie Shi’an did not have a deep friendship.
However, on the day of Guo Dingsong’s birthday banquet, Xie Shi’an had personally come to present a gift. Furthermore, because of his relationship with Ruan Cheng, Guo Dingsong had specially made a trip.
As for Guo Muyang, he was just there to join in the fun, mainly to see if he could chat with Sang Qianqian.
“How did Uncle Guo respond to what I asked you to tell him?”
“How else would he respond? You know about his relationship with the Ruan family. He’s dead set on defending them.”
Guo Muyang looked helpless. “No matter how I tried to persuade him, he wouldn’t listen. He said that the list of old subordinates of the Ruan family that he gave me was already a special case. He said that he would never stand against Ruan Cheng and accuse him.”
He sighed. “My dad also said that he did a lot of illegal things for Ruan Cheng in order to help him. If he were to really accuse Ruan Cheng, he might end up in prison. He’s already said that, so what else can I do?”
Shen Hanyu’s eyes were cold and emotionless. “If that’s the case, then don’t force yourself.”
Guo Muyang didn’t know what to say for a moment, so he dragged a chair and sat down, silently lighting a cigarette.
In his mind, he recalled what had happened in the abandoned mental hospital that day.
After the loud noise, the flames soared into the sky, accompanied by thick smoke.
He really thought something had happened to Shen Hanyu.
However, when they arrived, they discovered that Shen Hanyu was only unconscious. Although he had been shocked by the shrapnel, his life was not in danger.
Speaking of which, it was really heaven’s work.
Shen Hanyu was about to pick up the woman on the ground when Sang Pengcheng called him. He wouldn’t have picked up anyone else’s call, but Sang Pengcheng’s call was one he had to pick up.
At that time, Shen Hanyu had mistakenly thought that the woman who had died on the ground was Sang Qianqian.
No matter how strong his self-control was, he couldn’t be by ‘Sang Qianqian’s’ side while answering Sang Pengcheng’s call.
He was afraid that the other party could hear the difference in his emotions and voice and could not bear to let Sang Pengcheng know of Sang Qianqian’s death, so Shen Hanyu walked a little further away.
It was this kindness that saved Shen Hanyu. However, Shen Hanyu was also seriously injured. He was hospitalized for more than half a month before he was discharged.
Many years ago, when Sang Qianqian faked her death, Shen Hanyu also fell sick. At that time, he was in a bad mood and could not sleep at night.
This time, Shen Hanyu was unusually calm. When his injuries were slightly better, he calmly planned a flawless plan.
In order for Ruan Cheng to let down his guard and for the plan to be foolproof, he played along and even gave up his position as Phoenix’s CEO.
Initially, everything was going smoothly. But who would have thought that the biggest problem would be Sang Qianqian?
He had thought that Sang Qianqian would be fine if he was no longer around, but who knew that things would turn out to be even more troublesome after his disappearance.
Even if a hundred thunderbolts suddenly fell from the sky, it wouldn’t be as shocking as today’s news.
Guo Muyang’s mood at this moment was simply indescribable. Of course, most importantly, it was not worth it for Hanyu.
Escaping from death, losing the love of his life, and then having to muster his spirits to continue planning carefully. In the end, everything became a joke in front of this photo of the loving bride and groom.
Sang Qianqian was not dead at all. She was still alive and well. Not only was she alive, but she was also going to marry Xie Shi’an.
“What are you guys doing? It’s like a gas chamber, I’m choking to death.”
Fang Lan came in, pulled open the curtains, and pushed open the windows. Finally, there was some fresh air in the room.
“Xie Shi’an is doing very well now. He has a good career and a good relationship.”
Fang Lan crossed her arms and leaned against the window, frowning, “I don’t quite understand. Does Miss Sang know that something happened to Hanyu? How could she agree to marry Xie Shi’an?”
If Sang Qianqian didn’t know that something had happened to Shen Hanyu, then she should have absolute trust in him and believe that he would definitely save her.
If she mistakenly thought that Shen Hanyu was no longer around, then she should not have married Xie Shi’an
It had only been a few months, and Shen Hanyu’s body was still warm. It was not appropriate for her to get married so soon.
“Miss Sang must have had no choice.”
Guo Muyang spoke up for Sang Qianqian. “Her brother is still in Ruan Cheng’s hands. I’m afraid she’ll have no choice but to agree to whatever Xie Shi’an requests.”
“Looking at this photo, the two of them seem to be getting along quite well. If she was really forced, would Xie Shi’an smile so happily if Miss Sang was nice to him?”
Fang Lan said bluntly, “Don’t forget what kind of relationship Xie Shi’an had with Miss Sang in the past. Perhaps Miss Sang was willing to do it.”
When she finished her words, the air in the room became colder and it was very depressing.
Guo Muyang glared at Fang Lan. “Can you stop talking?”
“Would you understand if I didn’t say that?”
“I’m just reminding you not to have any thoughts of snatching the bride. Not to mention that we may fail to take Miss Sang away, even if we did, Hanyu’s identity might be exposed, and all our hard work all this time would be in vain. Last time, we didn’t take advantage of the situation to pursue and stop halfway, and what did we get in return? If we let Ruan Cheng catch his breath now, who knows what else he’ll do?”
Fang Lan was quick to speak and hit the nail on the head. “It’s not that I want to say this, but Miss Sang has already been by Xie Shi’an’s side for more than three months. If Xie Shi’an really wanted to use Sang Minglang to threaten her, everything that should have happened would have already happened. The wedding was just a formality. If they could get married, they could get a divorce in the future. Hanyu, a little impatience spoils a great plan. At most, you can just get her back once the Ruan family collapses.”
Shen Hanyu’s face was as dark as water, and there was an indescribable malice in his eyes.
He glanced at Fang Lan expressionlessly, “Did I say that I’m going to snatch the bride?”
“It’s good that you’re not planning to.”
...
Fang Lan heaved a sigh of relief. “I was just afraid that you would be impulsive and rush to the wedding to snatch her away.”
“There’s no need to snatch her.”
Shen Hanyu’s eyes darkened, and it was hard to tell what he was feeling. “Didn’t I prepare a big gift for Ruan Cheng? Let’s give it to him today.”
“Alright,” Fang Lan understood and smiled, “I promise that this gift will be a beautiful one.”
After Fang Lan and Guo Muyang left, the room was silent.
Shen Hanyu lit up another cigarette. The white smoke that rose from the cigarette blurred the man’s cold face.
His eyes were lowered, and no one knew what he was thinking.
