Shang Ke’s lips twitched. He clearly did not believe Wen Qing.
“You were the one who wanted to marry me. You didn’t want to cancel the engagement,” he said contemptuously. “You didn’t say a thing about canceling the engagement either. Now, you’re telling me that you’re willing to cancel it? Wen Qing, do you like teasing me that much?”
“I’ll cancel the engagement as soon as possible.”
Wen Qing spoke softly. After she said that, she turned to leave.
Shang Ke stood rooted to the spot as he watched her retreating figure. He doubted that what she said was true. After all, their marriage was highly dependent on his grandfather’s support, and he insisted on choosing her.
However, he did not care about that.
His heart already belonged to the girl who had stayed by his side for ten days and ten nights when he was ill. Many years had passed, but he was still trying to find her.
He had no clue if he could find her.
But, he had been working very hard to make sure he saw her again.
…
The car moved steadily on the wide road. Laobai was driving, and Chen Jian was sitting in the front passenger seat. Wen Qing and Shang Yinghan sat in the backseat, with a huge amount of space between them. Wen Qing looked out the window at the buildings they were passing by. She was in a daze.
She was in a bad mood after the conversation with Shang Ke. However, she tried not to show it in front of Shang Yinghan.
Shang Yinghan was reading a quarterly report. Wen Qing tried her best to stay silent, so she would not disturb him.
When Wen Qing realized that they were not heading to Heting, she spoke up. “Sir, where are we going?”
Shang Yinghan was still looking at the report he was holding. He said indifferently, “So, you’re willing to talk now.”
Wen Qing was speechless.
However, the most important thing now was where they were going!
“Sir, this isn’t the route back to Heting village.” Her expression was confused, but she looked obedient and endearing.
Shang Yinghan suppressed the urge to reach out his hand and touch her. His expression was calm. “Who told you that we were going to Heting village?”
Wen Qing was speechless.
‘What the f*ck?’
She silently turned. She did not say another word.
Chen Jian had explicitly said that he would send her home. If she mentioned Chen Jian now, he would definitely say that their plans had changed since then. She was finding it harder and harder to understand what Shang Yinghan’s motives were.
She could not read Shang Yinghan’s mind!
“Are you unhappy?”
Wen Qing could hear the gentleness in Shang Yinghan’s tone. She was no longer afraid of him. Now, she even felt that he was approachable as long as he kept the stern expression off his face.
“Wen Qing.” Shang Yinghan wrapped his arm around her. “Sit closer.”
Just as Wen Qing was considering how approachable he seemed now, he asked her to sit next to him.
She would not dare!
No, no.
“Are you still afraid of me?” His voice was deeper than before.
“No, I’m not,” Wen Qing said, immediately shaking her head.
“Then, come here.” His tone made it clear that this was not up for discussion.
Wen Qing inched closer. When she was halfway there, Shang Yinghan reached out to her. Wen Qing subconsciously turned away. However, he did not want to touch her face. He simply wanted to pick up a loose thread on her shoulder.
When Wen Qing saw the loose thread, she remembered what she was wearing. She had left home in a hurry, and she had not taken the time to inspect her outfit first.
However, Shang Yinghan had noticed this loose thread. He was clearly very perceptive.
Although they were closer now, the space between them could still easily fit another person. At this moment, Shang Yinghan asked, “You seem unhappy. What did you and Shang Ke talk about?”
Wen Qing did not want to tell the truth at first. “Sir, haven’t you noticed that I’ve been unhappy since this morning?”
Shang Yinghan’s gaze was serious. When he spoke, his tone was serious too. “Wen Qing, perhaps you need to seriously consider your relationship with Shang Ke. One-sided wishful thinking may not give you what you want. The prerequisite is that he has to be worth it.”
Shang Ke’s lips twitched. He clearly did not believe Wen Qing.
“You were the one who wanted to marry me. You didn’t want to cancel the engagement,” he said contemptuously. “You didn’t say a thing about canceling the engagement either. Now, you’re telling me that you’re willing to cancel it? Wen Qing, do you like teasing me that much?”
