I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot Chapter 189 A Lot of Trouble

189 A Lot of Trouble

In the snow-covered area, Sang Qianqian got out of the car and saw Xie s.h.i.+’an waiting at the entrance.

He quickly walked over with joy on his face. “Qianqian.”

“Have you been waiting for a long time? I’m sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road.”

Sang Qianqian revealed a faint smile. “What are our arrangements later?”

“Let’s go to the hotel first, then I’ll bring you up the mountain.”

As Xie s.h.i.+’an walked, he introduced her to the snow-viewing attractions in the place. “These places aren’t bad. We’ll walk up slowly along the trail later. If you get tired, we can take the cable car.”

Sang Qianqian nodded her head. “Alright.”

It was said that Bailing Mountain was the most famous snow-admiring place in the capital, and it was indeed worthy of its reputation.

Surrounded by the snow-covered trees and silver flowers, one’s heart would be much more clear walking through this entire world of beautiful ice.

Sang Qianqian was observing the snow, but Xie s.h.i.+’an was only looking at her. His gaze had not left Sang Qianqian for a moment.

He watched her pick up the icicles on the wooden bridge’s railing like a child, her face and hands red from the cold as her eyes reflected the bright light of snow.

Xie s.h.i.+’an’s feelings were very complicated. He was pleased, but also disappointed.

He really did not expect that Sang Qianqian would come with him to watch the snow.

That day in the hospital’s canteen, he had b.u.mped into Sang Qianqian by chance. Sang Qianqian had asked him where was the best snow-viewing place in the capital.

Xie s.h.i.+’an recommended Bailing Mountain to her.

“If you want to go, I can accompany you this weekend.”

When he said this, Xie s.h.i.+’an did not expect Sang Qianqian to agree. He was already prepared to be rejected, but Sang Qianqian didn’t deny his offer.

Xie s.h.i.+’an could not believe it. He was stunned for a moment and asked again. After getting a positive answer, he finally believed that Sang Qianqian was really willing to come and see the snow with him.

During this period of time, they didn’t have much contact with each other.

Sang Qianqian’s att.i.tude toward Xie s.h.i.+’an couldn’t be considered close, but she was very calm, as if they were friends.

Just like in Yuecheng, the relations.h.i.+p between the two of them was gentle and calm, but it also made people feel warm. Xie s.h.i.+’an wanted to indulge in it and even take it one step further.

However, he knew better than anyone that it was impossible. He knew very well that Sang Qianqian was now Shen Hanyu’s wife.

His character wasn’t so bad that he would destroy someone’s marriage.

If he took it one step further, even his current relations.h.i.+p with Sang Qianqian would be destroyed. That was why he could only hide his thoughts. He didn’t even dare to think about it.

The sky turned dark earlier in winter. The two of them came down from the mountain and had dinner.

Xie s.h.i.+’an hesitated for a few seconds, but still asked, “There are many fun things in the hotel’s leisure area. Do you want to go and take a look later?”

Sang Qianqian shook her head. “No, I’m too tired today. I want to rest early.”

The two of them returned to their respective rooms.

Xie s.h.i.+’an was shocked when Sang Qianqian knocked on his door an hour later.

“It’s too early of a time to sleep.”

Sang Qianqian had a slight smile on her face. “s.h.i.+’an, why don’t we have a chat?”

The two of them sat down on the sofa in the room, face to face.

Xie s.h.i.+’an’s heart was beating faster. “What do you want to talk about?”

Sang Qianqian looked at him for a long while before asking, “s.h.i.+’an, why did you like me back then?”

In the morning, when Sang Qianqian got into the car and left, Shen Hanyu had actually seen it.

He only thought that Sang Qianqian had something to do. Moreover, since he didn’t have the right to ask about her whereabouts, he could only pretend not to see her.

In the afternoon, Fang Lan called him. “Everyone’s been quite tired these days, so I took them out to play. You’re in the capital, right? Do you want to come over for a drink tonight? We’re at Bailing Mountain and will only return tomorrow.”

Shen Hanyu naturally refused.

Fang Lan laughed maliciously on the other end. “You’re really not coming? Don’t regret this.”

Shen Hanyu hung up the phone.

His phone beeped. Fang Lan had sent him a photo.

In the photo, all he could see was a sea of silver. Sang Qianqian and Xie s.h.i.+’an were walking side by side on a mountain path covered in snow. It was unknown what the two of them were talking about, but they both had smiles on their faces.

Shen Hanyu’s eyes turned cold.

So, did Sang Qianqian go out early in the morning to admire the snow with Xie s.h.i.+’an?

After giving Sang Minglan a call and learning that he was at home, Shen Hanyu went to the courtyard next door.

He didn’t look very good. “Didn’t Big Brother say that Qianqian is very careful and doesn’t talk much with Xie s.h.i.+’an? They even went to watch snow together today, so are you sure she’s not keeping in touch with him?”

“Impossible! How could Qianqian go with Xie s.h.i.+’an to admire the snow?”

Sang Minglan denied it firmly, “She did tell me about admiring the snow this morning. However, she claimed that she would be going with her colleagues from her department. My sister would never lie to me.”

Shen Hanyu’s face darkened as he placed the photo before him.

Sang Minglan was dumbfounded, thinking to himself that his sister actually knew how to lie. Moreover, she could lie without even blus.h.i.+ng or having her heart skip a beat. She was too much.

“My sister is probably thinking about the shooting. She’s just trying to ask Xie s.h.i.+’an for clues.”

Sang Minglan was still trying his best to find something for his sister. “I’ll go to Bailing Mountain to find her.”

He was a little worried. Firstly, he was afraid that Sang Qianqian would be in danger. Secondly, he was afraid that Xie s.h.i.+’an would do something to her.

He was a man himself, and he knew the bad habits of men.

Xie s.h.i.+’an was going out with the woman he liked, and they were even staying in the same hotel. If he lost control over himself, it was easy to imagine what would happen.

Moreover, men and women weren’t on the same level of physical strength at all. Even if she was unwilling, she would probably…

Sang Minglang simply didn’t dare to continue thinking about it. He gave Ruan Xiaoshuang a call and told her that he couldn’t have dinner with her that night. He turned around, took his car keys, and prepared to leave.

However, when he got to his car, he saw that Shen Hanyu had already started his own car as well.

Sang Minglan had a bad feeling. “Where are you going?”

“Bailing Mountain,” Shen Hanyu answered.

“Shen Hanyu, you’re afraid that my sister won’t find out about our secret, so you’re trying to set me up, aren’t you?”

Sang Minglang was annoyed, “It’s not that I want to say this, but why are you going there as well? We agreed that you don’t need to care about my sister and my actions in Beijing!”

“I don’t care,”

“I have a few friends at Bailing Mountain,” Shen Hanyu said. “They invited me for a drink. Big brother, I’ll take my leave first.”

Sang Minglan was about to say something, but Shen Hanyu had already rolled up the window. The car sped away and soon disappeared into the traffic.

Sang Minglan was speechless. Why did he feel like there would be a lot of trouble tonight?

“s.h.i.+’an, why did you like me back then?”

In the hotel, upon hearing Sang Qianqian’s question…

For a moment, Xie s.h.i.+’an suspected that he had heard wrong.

However, when he saw Sang Qianqian’s serious expression, he realized that she wasn’t joking at all.
