Chapter 318: Can You Explain It to Me Now?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xie Shi’an knew about Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian’s relationship.
However, for some reason, she couldn’t bear to see Shen Hanyu showing off his love in front of her.
“Some people used to say that Qianqian was their wife, but in the end, they were not legally married.”
Xie Shi’an’s tone was very calm, but anyone could hear the sarcasm in his words. “You can break up immediately. You don’t even need to get a divorce certificate.”
The corners of Sang Qianqian’s mouth twitched. Since when did Xie Shi’an speak in such a rude manner?
“Thank you for your concern, President Xie.”
Shen Hanyu smirked. “Qianqian and I got our marriage certificate yesterday. We are legally married now.”
Xie Shi’an was stunned. He subconsciously looked at Sang Qianqian. Seeing her nod, his expression became complicated.
Although he had already expected this outcome, he still felt a little disappointed when he heard that they were now legally married.
After a long while, Xie Shi’an forced a smile. “I’m sorry to have delayed your wedding time.”
“We’re not newlyweds,”
Shen Hanyu replied calmly, “President Xie, you have forgotten that Qianqian and I have been married for more than a year. We’re just getting a new marriage certificate.”
Xie Shi’an was silent for two seconds and did not speak.
Shen Hanyu turned the car key and started the car. “I’ll go first then. See you later.”
Sang Qianqian was speechless.
She was really confused with these two. Didn’t they always ignore each other with cold faces in the past? Why were they now secretly competing with each other the moment they met? They were both talking with guns and sticks.
Back in the car, Sang Qianqian remembered that Xie Shi’an had mentioned that some employees had made things difficult for Shen Hanyu at the meeting. “Didn’t Uncle say that he had brought you to meet some of the core people in the company yesterday? Why would there be any employees who deliberately picked on you at the meeting?”
“I’m new here. I’m afraid that even the core employees aren’t unified when it comes to their agreements.”
Shen Hanyu was focused on driving. “It’s normal for the employees to have some opinions about me,” he said casually.
Zhen Yiping intended to support Shen Hanyu’s power and prestige, so he didn’t attend the meeting this morning. Instead, he gave Shen Hanyu full authority.
At the meeting, Shen Hanyu decisively rejected the plans submitted by many departments. There were more than 30 key investment projects to be pushed forward this year, but in the end, there were less than ten left.
Some of the people in charge were unconvinced, so they launched an attack at the meeting.
The person who made the issue only knew that Shen Hanyu used to be the president of Phoenix. They did not know much about his character and ability. Naturally, they did not know that his seemingly casual rejection was based on the premise of a large amount of analysis of the market data.
Those people’s words were not very pleasant to hear. They said things like “The Zhen family’s group is not a small business. Managing Phoenix well doesn’t mean that you can manage the Zhen family’s group well. If there is a mistake in the decision-malting and the company suffers losses, will you bear the responsibility?”
Shen Hanyu could understand their concern.
“Will it be particularly difficult for you to start your work later?” Sang Qianqian was a little worried.
“No, I’ll push forward as I should.”
Shen Hanyu’s tone was reassuring. “This is nothing.”
Sang Qianqian thought about it for a while and agreed.
When he first took over Phoenix, it was much more difficult than it was now.
At that time, there were troubles both inside and outside, and Han Shangrong was pressing him step-by-step. Shen Hanyu had no one to rely on but only himself.
At least Zhen Yiping was in charge now. If there was anything that couldn’t be solved, Zhen Yiping would definitely not stand by and do nothing.
Sang Qianqian hadn’t seen Ruan Xiaodie for a while, but Ruan Xiaodie actually recognized her at a glance.
However, as soon as she called out “Big Sister Qianqian”, she saw Shen Hanyu and immediately cowered in fear. She ran to a huge doll in the corner of the living room and hid behind it. No matter how much Sang Qianqian coaxed her, she refused to come out.
According to Xie Shi’an, her reaction was related to the kidnapping when she was young. She was always wary of strange men she met for the first time.
Fortunately, Sang Qianqian had a lot of experience in coaxing patients. It didn’t take long for Ruan Xiaodie’s attention to be diverted. She actually pulled Sang Qianqian and started to play puzzle games with great interest.
On the other side of the living room, someone had served tea.
Xie Shi’an looked at Shen Hanyu, who was sitting opposite him. “I’m sure Qianqian has already asked you about what happened that night abroad? How did she find out?”
Shen Hanyu looked away from Ruan Xiaodie and Sang Qianqian. He picked up his teacup and took a sip. “Last night, I brought Qianqian back to the Zhen family for dinner. I got drunk in a moment of joy and probably mentioned it to her.”
“So why do you have to do this?”
Xie Shi’an smiled. “You called me over in the middle of the night and left her for me to take care of. You’ve put in so much effort. It’s a pity that you don’t understand Qianqian at all.”
He scoffed, “She’s never someone who can give in to others. She has always been clear about what she wants.”
Shen Hanyu slowly put down his teacup. “I thought that she went to Professor Fu’er with you because of Ruan Xiaodie?”
Xie Shi’an was silent, but he felt bitter and self-deprecating for no reason.
He said that Shen Hanyu did not understand Sang Qianqian, but in reality, he did not really understand her.
Actually, he had his own motives that night. He did not tell Shen Hanyu who Sang Qianqian was going overseas for, nor did he mention how much Sang Qianqian had sacrificed to find the medicine for Shen Hanyu.
That night, even if Shen Hanyu had not used Xiaodie to threaten him, Xie Shi’an would not have told Qianqian that Shen Hanyu had been there.
He just wanted to see if Qianqian would change her mind if Shen Hanyu really couldn’t be cured.
Unfortunately, he still lost in the end.
He had no chance of winning at all.
It was like this when he first met Sang Qianqian many years ago, and it was still the same after so many years.
After a long while, Sang Qianqian finally stood up and returned to the sofa.
“How did it go?” Xie Shi’an asked hurriedly.
“Xiaodie’s ability to adapt is better than I expected. I will confirm the specific treatment plan with Director Miao again.”
After communicating with Ruan Xiaodie at a close distance, Sang Qianqian had a rough idea of what was going on. She said to Xie Shi’an, “I’ll be back in about a week.”
In Professor Fu’er’s notes, there were indeed some treatment methods, with Western medicine as the main focus. Sang Qianqian had already asked the hospital’s pharmacy to start preparing it.
It was just that every patient’s situation was different, and they all had their own uniqueness. Sang Qianqian and Director Miao had discussed Xiaodie’s situation before, and they both agreed that they could combine it with Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture to stimulate mental memory and for better effects.
Sang Qianqian had been worried that Ruan Xiaodie would not cooperate.
However, when she was playing games with her just now, she discovered that her attention was quite easy to divert. With a little effort, it should not be a big problem. By playing games, she could do the acupuncture treatment smoothly.
They returned to the small courtyard for dinner.
Sang Qianqian went to the study to confirm the initial treatment plan for Ruan Xiaodie. She was so busy that she forgot the time.
Shen Hanyu walked in and took her book without a second thought. “It’s already late at night. You can just read this tomorrow.”
Seeing that it was indeed getting late, Sang Qianqian did not insist.
As she was about to get up, she suddenly remembered what had happened this morning. She sat down again and looked at Shen Hanyu with a smile.. “So, can you explain to me now why you were overseas at that time?”
