226 Who Exactly Are You
Her tone was clearly provocative. Ruan Cheng’s expression darkened and he was about to speak.
At this moment, Shao Jin’s phone rang.
He picked it up, and his expression changed. He whispered something into Ruan Cheng’s ear.
Ruan Cheng’s expression changed as well. He stood up and said, “Let’s go to the company.”
“What about the wedding? Should we cancel it? And this woman, what should we do with her?”
Shao Jin pointed at Sang Qianqian. We can’t just let her off like this.”
“The wedding will go on as usual. Entertain the guests as you should. As for her,”
As Ruan Cheng spoke, his cold gaze fell on Sang Qianqian. Sang Qianqian felt as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake.
Ruan Cheng retracted his gaze, turned around, and walked out. His voice was indifferent as he said, “Lock her up first. When Shi’an wakes up, let him handle it.”
At a time like this, there was no need to anger Xie Shi’an for Sang Qianqian’s sake.
Moreover, it was impossible for Xie Shi’an to not bear grudges about what happened today. As for how he would treat Sang Qianqian in the future, Shi’an would have a clear understanding of that.
Outside the manor, the few small jet planes had already left, and the romantic traces in the sky had also disappeared little by little.
Alongside that, a helicopter was slowly leaving the manor.
The emcee came up with the most loving excuse and said that the bride wanted to see the scenery, so the groom accompanied her to the helicopter.
The guests sighed at the willfulness of the new couple and envied the indulgence and pampering the groom gave to the bride. On the stage, it was still very lively.
The top stars of the entertainment industry began to take turns to appear on stage and perform one show after another.
In the midst of the singing and dancing, no one noticed that it was Ruan Cheng and his subordinates who had left in the helicopter.
No one knew that the groom was sleeping in the manor’s guest room, and the bride was being roughly pushed into another room by several men.
Shao Jin must have wanted to take revenge, as he tied Sang Qianqian’s hands and feet behind her back. Her mouth and nose were also sealed with tape so that she would suffer.
Sang Qianqian’s struggles were to no avail, so she simply found a more comfortable position to lie down and conserve her energy.
Ruan Cheng was indeed more difficult to deal with than she had thought. She had already reached the last step, but he still saw through her.
But luckily, she didn’t place all her hopes on the wedding. Before she took this step, she had already made two preparations.
She still left a little hope for herself. She hoped that her other plan would not fail.
Sang Qianqian thought of what Ruan Cheng had said before he left, “To the company.”
Ruan Cheng had not been to the Ruan family’s corporation for the past two years due to his poor health. The company’s matters had always been left to the people around him to handle.
His sudden departure must have meant that something very important had happened in the Ruan family corporation.
So, what could have happened that would make Ruan Cheng rush to the company to deal with it personally?
During this period of time, she did not have a mobile phone or a computer, so she could not go online at all. It was as if she was isolated from the world and completely did not understand the situation outside.
After thinking for a long time, she couldn’t guess the reason.
But in her mind, she suddenly remembered what her brother had said.
“Shen Hanyu is more thoughtful than I am. Even if he’s no longer around, Ruan Cheng wouldn’t have an easy time.”
Shen Hanyu was gone, but Fang Lan and his friends were still there.
They seemed to be well-known hackers from an international organization. Fang Lan had once told her that with just the few of them, they could easily stir up a storm if they wanted to.
If something really happened to the Ruan family’s corporation, would it be Fang Lan’s doing?
The sun outside the window gradually set in the west, and the light in the room dimmed.
Sang Qianqian’s bound hands and feet were blocked from blood flow. At first, she could feel pain, but later, she only felt numbness.
Her nose and mouth had been blocked for a long time, and even breathing was a little difficult. Her brain seemed to begin suffering from lack of oxygen, and her consciousness was gradually becoming hazy.
The manor was brightly lit in the evening. Neon lights flickered, reflecting the stars in the dark night. The guests were attending the wedding banquet, and the hall was filled with toasts.
However, in the blink of an eye, all the lights went out, and the entire manor fell into darkness.
After panicking for a few minutes, the lights came on again, making everyone let out a long breath.
However, in the few minutes where the lights went out, there was already a straight figure standing silently in the shadows within Sang Qianqian’s room.
He quietly looked at the girl on the ground, not knowing if she was asleep or unconscious. His eyes were extremely deep, and one could not see the end of its depths.
After a long while, he finally walked to Sang Qianqian’s side and gently picked her up. He walked to the side of the bed and put her down.
He first removed the restraints on her mouth and nose, and when he was about to untie the ropes on her hands and feet, he realized that the knots were very tight and complicated.
The man hesitated for a moment, then turned around and took a wedding ribbon, covering Sang Qianqian’s eyes.
Only then did he turn on a small wall lamp. Under the light of the wall lamp, he lowered his head and untied the knot.
Even though his movements were gentle, Sang Qianqian was still jolted awake from her daze. She opened her eyes, only to find that her eyes were blindfolded and she could not see anything.
There was clearly someone beside her, untying the rope around her ankle.
“Who is it?” Sang Qianqian’s nerves tensed up.
The man paused and didn’t speak.
Sang Qianqian heaved a sigh of relief. “Is it Shi’an?”
When Shi’an’s name was uttered, the air seemed to suddenly turn cold. Sang Qianqian subconsciously felt uneasy.
but on second thought, Shao Jin had asked someone to tie her up and throw her here before he left. In such a big manor, no one would dare to enter the house without permission and untie her rope except for Xie Shi’an.
Sang Qianqian lowered her voice. “It’s Shi’an, right? Why aren’t you saying anything?”
...
Under the light, the man’s well-defined handsome face was like a layer of frost and snow, and the coldness froze inch by inch.
Sang Qianqian could vaguely feel that the other party was looking at her.
She couldn’t see his gaze, but it made her feel scared for no reason. It was as if she was being stared at by a wild wolf, and her skin was trembling.
Sang Qianqian let go of the other party and instinctively retreated. Her voice was trembling as she said, “You’re not Xie Shi’an. Who are you?”
The man didn’t say a word. Instead, he grabbed her ankle with his large palm and pulled her to his side with a force that was neither too strong nor too light.
“What are you trying to do?” Sang Qianqian screamed.
That person dragged Sang Qianqian to his side, but did not take any further action.
His slightly cold fingers touched her ankle from time to time, untying the rope for her.
Her feet, which had been numb due to poor blood circulation, finally regained freedom.
Sang Qianqian’s heart, which was about to suffocate from fear, finally managed to catch her breath.
She composed herself. “Who are you? How did you enter this place?”
...
Alas, the man still didn’t say anything. His eyes observed her ankle that was bruised from the rope.
She was still wearing her wedding dress, and her wrists were still tied.
When Shao Jin’s men had tied her up earlier, she had struggled with all her might. Her veil had already fallen off, and her off-shoulder wedding dress had slid down half of her body, revealing a large area of her fair skin on her chest.
Her long black hair was disheveled, her eyes were covered with a red ribbon, and her lips were bright red.
She had no idea what kind of visual impact her current appearance would bring to others.
She looked at him nervously and asked again, “Please, who the hell are you? Why are you helping me?”
