I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot Chapter 50 Boyfriend

50 Boyfriend

Before Sang Qianqian could reply, Sang Pengcheng had already said, “In my opinion, s.h.i.+’an is a good kid. Qianqian, now that you’re working, you can start thinking about other things.”

Sang Qianqian pursed her lips. “Brother hasn’t even considered it, so why should I be in such a hurry?”

“Dad’s talking about you. Don’t direct the attention to me.”

Sang Minglang stood up, looking as if he wanted to stay out of this. “I don’t have a pursuer like Xie s.h.i.+’an, who loiters around the house all day.”

He waited for Sang Minglang to go upstairs. Then, Sang Pengcheng said seriously, “Qianqian, Daddy is serious. This child has been treating you like this for the past four years. You can really consider him.”

“Dad, why didn’t you rush brother like this? He’s much older than me.”

Speaking of which, Sang Qianqian had never seen her father rush her brother for personal problems.

Her brother was the eldest in the family. He would inherit the Sang family’s business once he marries and gains children.

Over the years, her brother’s girlfriends had changed like lanterns, but none of them lasted more than three months. Shouldn’t her father be more worried about her brother instead?

Sang Pengcheng’s eyes were complicated. “Your brother… He hasn’t met anyone suitable, but you have one.”

Sang Qianqian was a little helpless. “There are so many ready-made ones. Dad, don’t you care if I like them or not?”

Sang Pengcheng really asked, “Then do you not like Xie s.h.i.+’an?”

Sang Qianqian pursed her lips. For a moment, she didn’t know how to answer. ‘Do I like him?’

It didn’t seem like it.

However, out of all the people who pursued her, Xie s.h.i.+’an was the one who made her feel the most at ease and comfortable.

Therefore, four years had pa.s.sed, and only Xie s.h.i.+’an could enter the Sang family.

“I’ve only seen one person that you really like in your life.”

Sang Pengcheng recalled the past and felt a little emotional.

He had thought that his daughter liked Shen Hanyu, but in the end, she had left him so resolutely.

Sang Pengcheng sighed. “To be honest, I don’t understand what it means for you to like someone.”

Sang Qianqian knew who her father was referring to and felt slightly uncomfortable.

“Dad, it’s all in the past. Why are you still talking about it?”

“Alright, I won’t mention it. But I’m getting old now, and I really want you to have a stable life.”

Recently, Sang Pengcheng had a feeling that he was getting old.

Sang Minglang was a stubborn man. He listened to him when it came to company matters, but it was useless for him to say anything more about relations.h.i.+ps.

He probably couldn’t count on his son anymore. Alas, Sang Pengcheng only hoped that his daughter would get married soon so that he could experience having grandchildren.

Sang Qianqian didn’t know if it was Sang Pengcheng’s words that had triggered her emotions.

Back in her room, Sang Qianqian tossed and turned, but she couldn’t fall asleep.

Actually, her father wasn’t the only one who didn’t understand what it meant to like someone. Even she herself was at a loss.

What was it like to have feelings for someone?

It was like the kind of heart-palpitating feeling of seeing someone at first sight.

Except for the encounter many years ago… Shen Hanyu, among all her suitors, and even Xie s.h.i.+’an, had never made her feel that way.

As expected, one shouldn’t meet someone who is too stunning when one is still young. Otherwise, everyone they would meet in the future would be overshadowed, even though Sang Qianqian had never deliberately compared them to Shen Hanyu.

However, it was true that no one else had ever given her that kind of breathtaking and heart-stirring feeling, let alone the determination and courage to put everything on the line for the sake of someone else.

In the past few years, Sang Qianqian had been very busy. After finis.h.i.+ng her studies, she occupied herself with work and never stopped.

That nightmare never appeared again, and she barely thought about what happened in Ming City until she ran into Shen Hanyu at the airport.

After meeting Shen Hanyu, memories of the past flooded her mind uncontrollably.

She suddenly realized that she had been away from Ming City for five years.

In the past five years, she had been pursuing her dreams of studying and working. Now, it seemed that it was indeed time to consider other matters in life, as her father had said.

Sang Qianqian was conflicted for a long time, but in the end, she still made a decision.

She decided to take another step forward, just like how she chose to leave Ming City in the past. She wanted to pursue someone and start a new life.

“s.h.i.+’an,” Sang Qianqian opened the chat box and sent Xie s.h.i.+’an a message. “Are you free tomorrow night? Do you want to come to my house for a meal?”

The other end of the line immediately called Sang Qianqian.

Xie s.h.i.+’an’s voice was obviously not as calm as before. “Qianqian, are you sure you want me to go to your house for a meal and not treat me to a meal outside?”

He deliberately emphasized the word ‘house’.

“Yes.” Sang Qianqian smiled. “I’m inviting you to my house for a meal.”

In the past, Sang Qianqian didn’t want to hold Xie s.h.i.+’an back. She told him very seriously that she had no plans to date, so he shouldn’t put too much effort into her as it would all be for naught.

At that time, Xie s.h.i.+’an replied calmly, “Then if you want to be in a relations.h.i.+p one day, just let me know. Don’t be embarra.s.sed to tell me.”

He looked at Sang Qianqian and said, “Just say that you’re inviting me to your house for a meal.”

Xie s.h.i.+’an was afraid that she would be too shy to say it, so he had given Sang Qianqian the most tactful way to express herself in advance.

As long as Sang Qianqian was willing to invite him to her house for a meal, he would be able to understand her intentions.

As long as she took this step, she would leave the remaining 99 steps to him.

And now, Sang Qianqian had really expressed her feelings tactfully.

Xie s.h.i.+’an still couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t help but ask for confirmation. “Qianqian, are you serious?”

Sang Qianqian asked, “What do you think? Didn’t someone tell me that if I’m willing to fall in love, I can invite him to my house for a meal?”

Four years of waiting had finally come true.

Xie s.h.i.+’an felt as if he had been hit by a giant wheel of happiness. He felt a little dizzy. “Qianqian.”

“What’s wrong?”

“No, nothing.”

Xie s.h.i.+’an felt that his mind was a mess. He asked again with uncertainty, “You, you really want me to be your boyfriend?”

Sang Qianqian sighed. “s.h.i.+’an, I’m just planning to invite you to my house for a meal tomorrow.”

Xie s.h.i.+’an was so excited that he didn’t know what to say. “Y-You should sleep early.”

The corners of Sang Qianqian’s lips curled up slightly. “You too.”

“Then, good night. Have a good dream.”

“Good night,” she said.

After hanging up the phone, Sang Qianqian wasn’t particularly happy. Instead, she felt as if everything had been settled.

Since she was going to fall in love sooner or later, why not let Xie s.h.i.+’an be the one?

The man had been waiting for her for a long time.

She had met Xie s.h.i.+’an by chance on the plane back to China in her second year of studying abroad.

Even when she rejected his confession, he didn’t leave. He stayed by her side quietly and gently.

He wasn’t overly enthusiastic, but he wasn’t distant, either. He always appeared just at the right time when she needed him.

In all honesty, Sang Qianqian didn’t have much antic.i.p.ation for things like dating.

However, if her boyfriend was Xie s.h.i.+’an, she wouldn’t be repulsed. More or less, she would feel at ease and warm.

Shen Hanyu didn’t say a word throughout the journey from Yuecheng to Ming City.

The child’s innocent answer almost made him believe that he was really hallucinating.
