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

122 Those Words Sound Too Cheap

Sang Qianqian stopped in her tracks. This world was really small, too small.

“I heard from Shi’an that your hospital is quite big.”

Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Ruan Xiaoshuang thought she didn’t know him and said considerately, “He only worked in that hospital for a year. It’s normal that you haven’t seen him.”

Sang Qianqian grunted. She had wanted to ask where Xie Shi’an had gone. When the words were on the tip of her tongue, she felt that there was no point in asking, so she decided to forget it.

!!

Back then, she and Xie Shi’an had parted on bad terms. Even now, she still didn’t understand how she had offended Xie Shi’an that he didn’t even want to break up properly and just disappeared.

But since they had already broken up, she didn’t want to pursue it. Where Xie Shi’an was now and what he was doing really had nothing to do with her anymore.

Ruan Xiaoshuang’s phone suddenly rang. She looked at the caller ID and smiled. “What a coincidence. I just mentioned Shi’an and he’s calling.”

Sang Qianqian was speechless. It was really a coincidence.

Sang Qianqian felt that it was better for her to avoid him. “Then you pick up the call first. I’ll wait for you at the side.”

Ruan Xiaoshuang nodded and picked up the phone. “Shi’an.”

“Sister Xiaoshuang, the person who gave Mister Guo the gift just called me and said that he will be at the Budokan in twenty minutes.”

Xie Shi’an’s voice was clear and calm. “That place is too big. The people from the Martial Arts Center might not let them in. Sister Xiaoshuang, you’d better welcome them at the door.”

On the other end of the phone, there was a piercing car horn. Xie Shi’an paused. “Sister Xiaoshuang is not in the center right now?”

“I’m outside meeting a friend.”

Ruan Xiaoshuang said, “I’ll contact Uncle Guo later and ask him to inform the Martial Arts Center. It’s definitely not a problem to send them in directly.”

“Then I’ll have to trouble Sister Xiaoshuang.”

“It’s me and Big Brother who have troubled you. You’ve put in a lot of effort from the selection to the production to the delivery.”

As Ruan Xiaoshuang spoke, her lips curved. “Guess who I met in Ming City this time? She used to be your colleague in the same hospital.”

Xie Shi’an’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Really? What’s her name?”

“Sang Qianqian.”

Ruan Xiaoshuang looked at Sang Qianqian, who wasn’t far away, and said in a soft voice, “She also works at that hospital, but she doesn’t seem to know you.”

Xie Shi’an’s hand that was holding the phone tightened, and his breathing was a little rushed.

“Why did she go to Ming City?”

“Well, I haven’t asked her about that.”

Ruan Xiaoshuang thought for a moment. “If I recall, her boyfriend and family are in Ming City. She might have come back to see them… Shi’an?”

There was no sound on the other end of the line for a long time, and then the call was cut off.

Ruan Xiaoshuang was puzzled. She thought something had happened to Xie Shi’an, so she didn’t call him again. Instead, she gave Guo Dingsong a call and told him about the gift before looking for Sang Qianqian.

When the two of them arrived at Sang Minglang’s place, they realized that Guo Dingsong had already arrived.

Knowing that Sang Qianqian was coming to see her brother that night, Guo Dingsong didn’t tag along. Instead, he arranged a time to pick her up.

“Qianqian, you and Uncle Guo should go back first.”

Ruan Xiaoshuang said, “I’ll send the food up to your brother.”

These dishes were all Sang Minglang’s favorites, and Ruan Xiaoshuang had insisted on bringing them back.

She said that Sang Minglang was so angry tonight that he definitely wouldn’t be in the mood to eat, so he could eat these dishes if he was hungry at night.

Sang Qianqian could tell that Ruan Xiaoshuang was really, really good to her brother. However, their past relationship was too complicated. Sang Qianqian couldn’t tell what her brother was planning.

However, he probably hadn’t forgotten Ruan Xiaoshuang all these years, right?

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have rushed over from Yuecheng immediately after receiving news from Ruan Xiaoshuang.

Perhaps, it would be a good thing if they could spend more time alone and clear up the misunderstandings in the past.

In the end, Sang Qianqian did not accompany Ruan Xiaoshuang upstairs. “Then I’ll have to trouble Sister Xiaoshuang.”

Afterward, she got into the car with Guo Dingsong and left.

Ruan Xiaoshuang went upstairs and stood silently at the door for a while before gently knocking on the door.

Shortly after, the door was pulled open.

Sang Minglang had thought it was Sang Qianqian, but when he saw Ruan Xiaoshuang, his face turned cold. “What are you doing here?”

“Qianqian asked me to bring you dinner.” Ruan Xiaoshuang mustered up her courage. “I also have something to tell you.”

Sang Minglang stared at her silently for a long time, then turned around and went back into the room. Ruan Xiaoshuang followed him in, put the lunch box on the table, and was stunned for a moment.

“Minglang, I didn’t do it on purpose that year. I had my own difficulties…”

“Weren’t you just marrying into a rich family? You don’t have to tell me in such a grand manner.”

Sang Minglang stared at Ruan Xiaoshuang, his eyes filled with ridicule, “It seems that your life with a rich man isn’t too satisfactory? Not to mention meeting my sister at Ming City and specially looking for me, you even came to me at night with a poor excuse of delivering food…”

He sneered, and his expression was one of contempt and frivolity that Ruan Xiaoshuang had never seen before. “What’s wrong? Can’t your rich husband satisfy you? Do you miss the time when I served you so well that you cried until you were exhausted?”

Ruan Xiaoshuang’s face turned red and tears welled up in her eyes. “Minglang, don’t be like this. I know you’re not that kind of person…”

Sang Minglang laughed coldly. “Ruan Xiaoshuang, you never knew what kind of person I am.”

“I’m not married, and I don’t have a husband.”

“Minglang, I’ve been looking for you all these years,” Ruan Xiaoshuang said with a trembling voice.

Sang Minglang was stunned, and his heart was clearly shaken.

He reached out and pinched her chin hard, forcing her to look up. He almost gritted his teeth and said, “You’ve done everything, and now you’re telling me this? Ruan Xiaoshuang, it’s enough that you tricked me once. Do you want me to fall for it a second time?”

He had almost lost his life after being played by her once!

Ruan Xiaoshuang closed her eyes, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes “I’m sorry…”

“Don’t say sorry to me. Those words sound too cheap coming from your mouth.”

Sang Minglang’s fingers brushed across her lips and he smiled coldly. “Since you’ve come to apologize, why don’t you do something more practical? Isn’t this what you wanted, anyway?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he kissed her. It wasn’t as gentle as Ruan Xiaoshuang remembered it to be. Instead, it was extremely rough like a punishment.

The taste of blood quickly filled her mouth, but Ruan Xiaoshuang didn’t push him away. Instead, she reached out her slender arms and hugged him.

She had wanted to see Sang Minglang for seven years. Seven years of heart-wrenching longing had made her no longer care about what Sang Minglang had become.

As long as it was Sang Minglang, it was fine. If treating her like this could make him feel better, she was willing to accept it.

Soon, the man’s breathing gradually became heavy, and his eyes were filled with lust. She was carried by Sang Minglang and thrown onto the bed with a moderate amount of strength.

The dress fell to the ground, and the man pressed down on her.

A night of absurdity and madness.

Ruan Xiaoshuang’s consciousness was heavy. She opened her tearful eyes slightly, wanting to see if she was in a dream.

But all she met was the man’s dark and cold eyes.
