The Long-awaited Mr Han Chapter 1840 - No Proper Status, and No Justifiable Reason

Chapter 1840: No Proper Status, and No Justifiable Reason

Shen s.h.i.+’an’s smile was unusually stiff.

Han Zhuoling was clearly declaring his boyfriend rights before them.

Han Zhuoling probably saw through his intentions.

He just did not expect that Han Zhuoling, who was so mature, would actually behave like normal people and do such a thing, which was even a little childish.

Shen s.h.i.+’an still found it hard to stomach after all and could not help but say, “When Xiaoya was being attacked by netizens online, the root cause of it was still you, Young Master Ling. Since you know about this, Young Master Ling, why didn’t you come out to clear the air back then?”

He only posted such an ambiguous Weibo post to make people guess and imagine things. What did that even count as?

“s.h.i.+’an!” Dong Qingxing said to him warningly in a low voice.

Han Zhuoling did not seem to mind and replied, “At that time, we were not together yet. There’s no proper status, and no justifiable reason for me to do so.”

If he was already s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s boyfriend back then, he would definitely have shut those people up immediately as s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s boyfriend.

Shen s.h.i.+’an: “…”

When he said that, why did it still sound like there was a strong air of arrogance in it?

Han Zhuoling nodded politely at them and said, “I’ll get going first then. We can have a meal together next time, to thank you all for helping Xiaoya previously.”

Shen s.h.i.+’an: “…”

He was not done yet!

He really did not expect Han Zhuoling to be this kind of a person in private!

They watched as Han Zhuoling left, until they could not see him anymore.

Chen Sibin then said, “Looks like Han Zhuoling really likes Xiaoya a lot.”

A man who had always been so mature and calm instantly turned into such a childish man even though he’d only discovered the budding shoots of his love rival.

“We should be thankful that s.h.i.+’an and Xiaoya had not seriously started to get to know each other,” Zhong Litao said.

“Yeah,” Dong Qingxing said. “He definitely knows s.h.i.+’an is interested in Xiaoya. But s.h.i.+’an clearly did not even get to say it out loud and did not even manage to reveal a hint of it in front of Xiaoya before he just smothered his hopes completely. He still kept this at heart and kept reminding him about it.”

“If you’d really started to get to know Xiaoya and pursued her seriously, or if you still refused to give up and still wanted to woo her, you might be in for a bad time.”

Shen s.h.i.+’an could not help but admit that and nodded. “Don’t worry, I won’t have those kinds of thoughts. Anyway, it hasn’t started, so I might as well back off more gracefully. I won’t put Nancang in a spot.”

Everyone nodded.

But they were still worried that s.h.i.+’an would feel upset, so they even intended to drag him along to have a drink.

It was Shen s.h.i.+’an who promised that he was fine, so they finally dispersed and went back.

***

On the way back, s.h.i.+ Nancang said as he drove, “Tell me honestly, have you known Han Zhuoling since a long time ago?”

“Yeah.” Anyway, she had already told s.h.i.+ Nancang about her relations.h.i.+p with Han Zhuoling, so there was nothing more to hide about it.

“You’re really…” s.h.i.+ Nancang felt upset as he said, “You’ve even learned to lie to me now! When I met you both at Sheng Yue the previous time, were you actually there to meet the Han Family people together with Han Zhuoling?”

“Not really. It was indeed Lu Man who asked me to go. But at that time, I did already know him, and we were on pretty good terms.”

s.h.i.+ Nancang thought to himself that although s.h.i.+ Xiaoya had not gotten together with Han Zhuoling yet at that time, just based on the fact that she said they were “on pretty good terms,” that would have been enough to shock other people if they said it to them.

How many people could actually be on pretty good terms with Han Zhuoling?

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya might have been too humble when saying this.

s.h.i.+ Nancang suddenly recalled something. “Previously, when you were about to go to Man City and I went to pa.s.s you things, you already knew Han Zhuoling then, right?”

He might not be sure before, but he was absolutely sure now!
