Chapter 330: Shen Hanyu Who Returned Late
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhen Zhu’s residence was on the 14th floor.
The balcony was open and it was no more than 30 centimeters wide. Zhen Zhu was sitting in the air, her body swaying. Tang Bochuan’s heart tightened as he watched her, afraid that she would fall.
Shen Hanyu was unmoved. He looked at her coldly and said, “Since you’re going to complain to your cousin-in-law anyways, why don’t you guess?”
“You’re already married. It can’t be that you like me, right?”
Zhen Zhu tilted her head and looked at Shen Hanyu. “Could it be that you want to use me to scheme for the Zhen family’s assets and make some kind of deal with Zhen Yiping? For example, if you help him get me back, his rebellious daughter, he’ll let you be the heir of the Zhen family group, or he’ll give you the Zhen family’s shares in return?”
Shen Hanyu’s dark eyes flashed with a touch of ridicule. “You’re more self-righteous than I thought.”
The smile on Zhen Zhu’s face disappeared. “That’s not the reason?”
However, she could not think of another reason other than this. Why did Shen Hanyu want to meddle in her business?
“Since you want to chat, then sit down and let’s have a good one.”
“I don’t like the habit of talking to people while standing,” Shen Hanyu said coldly.
He ignored Zhen Zhu and returned to his room.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Zhen Zhu jumped down from the balcony and followed him in.
She sat down on the sofa and looked at Shen Hanyu. “Can you tell me now? Why do you have to care about me so much?”
“You’re the Zhen family’s eldest daughter,” Shen Hanyu said slowly. “You should return to the Zhen Group and take responsibility for what you have to do.”
Zhen Zhu stared at him in disbelief and then laughed.
“Did I hear you right? You actually want me to go back to Zhen Group!”
She laughed so hard that her tears were about to fall. “Zhen Yiping definitely doesn’t know what you’re thinking, right? If he knew, he would be so angry.”
“Looks like you’re not only self-righteous, but you’re also stupid.”
Shen Hanyu’s eyes were cold and cruel, and his words were also sharp as knives. “You know that your father wants you to be a good girl, but you just have to go against him. You dress like this, do whatever you want, and frequent bars. You’re challenging your father’s bottom line. Did you really think that you could cut off all ties with the Zhen family if you never returned? Use your brain and think about it. You’ve caused so much trouble in the past two years, but you’ve always been able to escape unscathed. Is it really just your luck?”
He said coldly, word by word, “If it weren’t for the people your father sent to protect you in secret, I’m afraid you wouldn’t even know where you are now.”
Zhen Zhu’s face, which was already covered in a thick layer of foundation, looked even whiter under the light.
“So what?”
She gritted her teeth and said, “He said it himself that he doesn’t have a daughter like me. I’m not going back.”
“It’s not up to you to go back or not.”
Shen Hanyu’s eyes were cold and distant. “But let me give you a piece of advice. I’m not your father. Your childish tricks won’t work on me.”
Zhen Zhu chuckled. “You seem to know me very well. Tell me, what kind of childish tricks do I have?”
Shen Hanyu ignored her. He looked at the time and said impatiently, “Bochuan, I’ll have to trouble you to send her to the place she belongs to.”
“Now?” Tang Bochuan was stunned. “President Shen, didn’t you say that you’ll wait for a month before…”
“She’s so stubborn. Even if we wait for another month, the result will still be the same.”
Shen Hanyu stood up and said in a deep voice, “You don’t have to worry about my maternal grandmother and my uncle. They have already handed Zhen Zhu to me. You just have to follow my orders.”
Tang Bochuan was silent for two seconds. “Aright.”
“Wait, Shen Hanyu, where do you want Tang Bochuan to send me?”
Zhen Zhu was stunned. “What do you mean by the place I belong to?”
Shen Hanyu strode out of the room.
Zhen Zhu wanted to chase after him, but the bodyguard stopped her.
“Shen Hanyu! Are you crazy?”
Zhen Zhu was so angry that she shouted, “You!!! F*cking come back! Who are you?! Who are you to decide where I go?!”
Shen Hanyu left without even looking back.
Zhen Zhu was so agitated that the two bodyguards almost couldn’t stop her.
“Young Miss, don’t waste your energy.”
“I’m just asking you to move to another place. Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you,” Tang Bochuan replied helplessly.
Although he was related to Old Lady Zhen, they were only distant relatives. Occasionally, the old lady would ask him to go to the Zhen family’s house for a meal on the weekends, thinking that he was alone in Beijing.
However, Tang Bochuan was well aware of his status and had never regarded himself highly.
Instead, he treated everyone in the Zhen family with respect and maintained a sufficient distance.
He really didn’t want to get involved in the Zhen family’s affairs. Not only had he heard of Zhen Zhu’s stubbornness, but he had also seen it with his own eyes.
If he could, he wanted to stay as far away from Zhen Zhu as possible.
Unfortunately, Shen Hanyu had arranged this task for him in the name of his superior, and even Zhen Yiping and Old Lady Zhen had agreed to it.
Alas, he wanted to decline, but he couldn’t.
Zhen Zhu’s face was red, and her hair was messy. She knew that it was useless to struggle, so she finally stopped moving.
She was filled with anger. “I’m perfectly fine here. Why do I have to change places?”
“This is President Shen’s order. I’m just following his words.”
Tang Bochuan looked around the house. “Is there anything in this house that Young Miss wants to bring?”
“Are you deaf?”
Zhen Zhu stared at him with fire in her eyes. “Don’t you understand what I’m saying? I’m not going anywhere today!”
Tang Bochuan gave up on communicating with her and ordered the other bodyguards, “Help Young Miss pack up. Prepare all the clothes in the cloakroom and take them away.”
Zhen Zhu was about to go crazy. “Tang Bochuan!!!”
Tang Bochuan did not respond and just stood there looking down, extremely calm.
Her things were packed quickly, but Zhen Zhu still refused to leave. However, the bodyguards grabbed her like an eagle grabbing a chick, one arm each, and pulled her out of the door.
It was almost one o’clock when Shen Hanyu got home.
There was a wall lamp in the bedroom. Sang Qianqian was lying on her side on the bed, fast asleep.
She didn’t sleep very well, and the quilt only covered half of her body. Her skin was reflected by the warm yellow light, making it look even whiter and softer.
Shen Hanyu bent over slightly and covered her with the blanket gently. She hugged his arm in a daze, adjusted into a comfortable position, and fell asleep again.
Shen Hanyu’s heart softened as he looked at her sleeping face. He could not help but kiss her.
At first, he just wanted to kiss her, but when he touched her bright lips, he couldn’t control himself.
In her sleep, Sang Qianqian felt that her breathing was a little rough. She opened her eyes in a daze and softly called out, “Hanyu,” However, she did not struggle and only responded to him passively.
Shen Hanyu’s phone rang again.
The phone continued to ring, and Shen Hanyu had no choice but to let go of Sang Qianqian. He stroked her hair and said in a hoarse voice, “Be good, I’m going to take a call.”
Sang Qianqian mumbled an “Mm.” She was not fully awake yet, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
Shen Hanyu walked out of the bedroom and picked up the phone. He looked angry.. “What’s the matter? Why do you have to call me at such a late time?”
