Chapter 377: Give Me Some Time
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
So Shen Hanyu was planning on going home.
Sang Qianqian didn’t expect him to have such a plan. She was surprised, but her heart felt warm.
“What about Uncle Zhen and Old Lady Zhen?”
Sang Qianqian asked,” I’m afraid they won’t be willing to let you go. Besides, you’ve already promised Uncle Zhen that you’ll go to the corporation. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to leave now?”
“There’s a more suitable candidate for the Zhen family’s successor.”
Shen Hanyu hugged her tighter. “Qianqian, give me some time. If I can finish it quickly, It’ll take me half a year. At most, it won’t be more than a year. I’ll definitely bring you back to Ming City.”
Zhen Zhu had changed her attitude and returned to working at the company.
What was left now was finding a way to fulfill his promise to her and nurture her to a level that would satisfy Zhen Yiping.
He and Sang Qianqian grew up in Ming City and met each other there. Even their wedding was held there.
When he went to Yuecheng to propose marriage, he specially reserved a large piece of land for the Sang family’s company. He transferred it to the Sang family in the name of his father, Shen Shaofeng, so that it would be convenient for them to transfer their business back to Ming City in the future.
After all, they had no choice but to move to Yuecheng because of him. It was only natural that they would move back to Ming City in the future.
Once that time would come, the family would be able to truly reunite.
Sang Qianqian was a little confused. “There’s a more suitable candidate for the Zhen family’s successor? Who is it?”
Zhen Huan seemed to be the only successor of the Zhen family, but this child was going abroad to study. It would take at least three to four years for her to return after she finished her studies.
That was not even counting the time she had to adapt to the company. Despite all this, Shen Hanyu said that it would only take him a year at most to settle everything. How could that be possible?
Shen Hanyu explained Zhen Zhu’s situation in detail and said apologetically, “Zhen Zhu’s condition for returning to the company is for me to investigate the cause of her mother’s death. Therefore, I have to go overseas tomorrow. I might have to stay for ten days to half a month. I won’t have much time to accompany you during this period of time.”
Zhen Zhu’s mother had passed away overseas back then. After so many years, it was difficult to investigate many things.
Thinking about this, he might not be able to find out the result even if he stayed for ten days or half a month. He might have to go twice more.
Sang Qianqian had heard about Zhen Zhu’s dispute with the Zhen family.
She had met the woman once before, and she felt that her eyes were filled with an indescribable sense of rebellion.
She was surprised that Shen Hanyu could persuade Zhen Zhu to return to that family, and she was also shocked by the secrets behind Zhen Zhu’s fall from grace with the Zhen family.
“I’m not a child. I don’t need you to accompany me all the time.”
Sang Qianqian said considerately,” You should do your work properly.”
She thought of something and asked again, “Then will you be able to attend Sister Xiaoshuang’s wedding?”
Shen Hanyu nodded. “I think so. Isn’t her wedding in half a month’s time? I’m sure I can come back then.”
As he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead. “When I’m not in the capital, remember to ask Jian Zheng to accompany you to the Xie family.”
Every week, Sang Qianqian had to go to the Xie family’s house to treat Ruan Xiaodie. Last week, she acted coquettishly and said that she didn’t need Jian Zheng to accompany her and that she could go alone. Shen Hanyu couldn’t resist her words and agreed.
But now that he was going to leave for such a long time, he naturally could not rest assured.
Sang Qianqian looked up at him for a few seconds and couldn’t help but smile. She promised obediently, “I know. Don’t worry. I won’t talk to other men when my husband isn’t around.”
Jian Zheng was following her for safety reasons, but Sang Qianqian knew what Shen Hanyu was thinking. He didn’t want her to get too close to Xie Shi’an.
Shen Hanyu smiled. “Good that you know.”
The two of them chatted for a while more. Sang Qianqian gradually became sleepy, and she curled up in his arms as she fell asleep.
The snow-like moonlight shone in, illuminating her beautiful sleeping face. The corners of her lips were slightly curved with a smile.
It was as if only she had this kind of magic. Every frown, smile, and expression she made could tug at his heartstrings.
Even though she was just sleeping quietly without saying anything or doing anything, his heart was already surging again.
Shen Hanyu couldn’t help but lower his head to kiss her on the lips.
However, his heart still ached for her. In the end, Shen Hanyu did not do anything. He just hugged her and laid there with his eyes closed.
The next morning, when Sang Qianqian woke up, Shen Hanyu had already cooked breakfast.
Perhaps it was because he was about to go on a business trip and wouldn’t be able to cook for her for a while, but this breakfast was especially sumptuous.
Although Sang Qianqian had a smile on her face the whole time and had acted very sensible last night, she felt a little sour when she saw Shen Hanyu preparing to go out.
Jian Zheng was already waiting in the courtyard to send Shen Hanyu to the airport.
Sang Qianqian gave Shen Hanyu a big bear hug and smiled brightly. “I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Shen Hanyu looked at her deeply and patted her head. Then, he turned around and got into the car.
Sang Qianqian smiled and waved at him. However, the moment the car drove out of the courtyard and disappeared from sight, her eyes immediately turned red.
She chased out of the courtyard’s gate and only managed to catch a glimpse of the car’s afterimage. In the blink of an eye, it had already disappeared around the corner.
She stood there silently for a while. She didn’t know what she was feeling.
It was just a business trip, but she couldn’t bear to let him go.
However, when she thought about how Shen Hanyu had said that she would be able to return to Ming City in a year at most, she felt much better.
The car turned a corner, but it wasn’t going on the path to the airport. Instead, it went straight to the suburbs and stopped in front of a hospital hidden by trees.
However, this hospital was different from other hospitals. There were guards at the entrance, and there was a high wire fence around the hospital. The patients inside had a series of numbers on their clothes.
It was obvious that this was a place for sick prisoners to recuperate.
The car slowly stopped at the door. Jian Zheng whispered, “President Shen, we’re here.”
In the backseat, Shen Hanyu, who was resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and glanced out the window. “Has everything been arranged?”
“Yes, President.”
“But the police said that Cui Yi is very sick now. I’m afraid we won’t be able to get anything out of him even if we visit him,” Jian Zheng said respectfully.
“Let’s go in and take a look,” Shen Hanyu said lightly.
The two of them got out of the car and arrived at the hospital’s inpatient department. Jian Zheng accompanied Shen Hanyu to the thirteenth floor.
This floor was filled with felons, so there were several guards guarding the entrance. As they had already been informed of Shen Hanyu’s visit beforehand, the guards nodded at him and made way cooperatively.
A medical staff brought Shen Hanyu to a ward and stopped in front of it. “Mr. Shen, the person you want to visit is inside.”
Shen Hanyu nodded and pushed the door open.
In the room, a patient was lying on the bed with his hands and feet cuffed to the bed rails. He looked haggard and weak. His hair was messy and white, and his cheeks were abnormally thin. His eyes were sunken, and his cheekbones were high. He looked a little scary.
If the medical staff hadn’t told him who was staying in the room, even Shen Hanyu would have hesitated for a few seconds before he could connect the person in front of him with the person in his memory..
