Chương 78: Come Back to Me
Back on Wenchang Road, at the intersection, Sheng Xiangsi spotted the familiar black Bentley parked conspicuously.
In a place like this, with such a luxurious car, it was hard to ignore.
Moreover, Chen Zhong leaned against the car door, seemingly waiting for her.
He was indeed waiting for her, "Miss Sheng!"
He waved to her.
"Chen Uncle." Sheng Xiangsi walked over, puzzled, "Do you need something from me? Did Grandma send for me?"
"No."
Chen Zhong nodded towards the car, his expression difficult to describe.
At this moment, the window rolled down, revealing Fu Hanjiang's impeccable face.
His pupils contracted, and he spoke in an unusually cold tone, "Get in the car."
Sheng Xiangsi grabbed Chen Zhong, frightened, "Uncle Chen, tell him!"
"…" Chen Zhong smiled bitterly, "Miss Sheng, please don't joke."
As an old man, why would he wait here for Young Master Fu late at night?
Sheng Xiangsi: …
Alright, it seemed to be referring to her.
Frowning, Sheng Xiangsi awkwardly opened the rear door and got in. Sitting upright, she placed her hands on her knees, unable to breathe.
"Where did you go? You're just coming back now?"
Fu Hanjiang raised his wristwatch, pretending to look at it. "The performance ended at eleven, and it's already past twelve."
She thought he knew everything.
Sheng Xiangsi turned to him, questioning, "Don't you already know?"
"I want you to say it!"
Unexpectedly, Fu Hanjiang's low growl caught her off guard. His long, well-defined fingers lifted her chin.
Leaning closer, his handsome face approached hers.
Then, in a low voice, he demanded, "Where did you go? Who were you with? What did you do?"
"…"
Sheng Xiangsi froze, unable to move.
This man had an overly superior demeanor, and even in the stillness of the light, his silhouette alone could captivate anyone.
She had once been one of those captivated souls...
Sheng Xiangsi took a deep breath and slowly replied, "I went with Zhong Pei to the pedestrian street and had wontons."
"Wontons?"
Fu Hanjiang raised his eyelids, his eyes giving nothing away, as his fingertips stroked her chin.
"What kind of filling? Were they good?"
What… kind of question was this?
Sheng Xiangsi was surprised but nodded, "Pork filling, and they were… okay. Quite tasty…"
As her words fell, the car fell silent.
The atmosphere remained tense for a dozen seconds. Feeling embarrassed, Sheng Xiangsi attempted to push him away, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave… ah…"
Her shoulder was suddenly gripped, and Fu Hanjiang pressed her back into the seat.
His gaze became icy, and a faint smile played at the corner of his lips.
"Sheng Xiangsi, retract the divorce agreement, invalidate the divorce application! Come back to me!"
"!!"
Too shocked, too terrifying!
Sheng Xiangsi had lived through all kinds of incredible hardships, but they paled in comparison to this moment!
Her body trembled uncontrollably, and she clenched her hands tightly, trying to ease the fear.
"What did you say?"
Or perhaps she misheard?
"I didn't hear clearly? Fine, I'll say it again."
Fu Hanjiang stared at her face, his eyes seemingly smiling but not.
"You need a man, right? Someone who can take care of you. Then why not… come back to me? Hmm?"
He shifted his hand from her chin to her face, his voice becoming softer, "It's too late tonight. Tomorrow, we'll go see Grandma and tell her about this…"
With sweet words and soft speech, he babbled on.
"Grandma hopes we can be together. She'll be very happy…"
"Fu Hanjiang!"
Sheng Xiangsi shook her head stiffly, her face now pale, her features barely visible in the dim light.
"Stop it! Don't say it anymore!"
He was really too strange!
First, he kissed her inexplicably, and now he wanted her to come back to him?
She didn't know why he was like this, whether he was possessed or had ulterior motives, she didn't want to know…
It was his business!
She wouldn't accompany him!
Sheng Xiangsi forced a smile, "I disagree. I won't come back to you."
Actually, this statement wasn't entirely accurate.
To be precise, she had never been by his side…
"What did you say?" Fu Hanjiang was momentarily stunned, a trace of a smile still lingering on his lips, "I didn't hear clearly. Say it again."
She naturally knew that he had heard clearly.
"Stop playing around, Fu Hanjiang."
Sheng Xiangsi folded her fingers into her palms, "See clearly, I'm Sheng Xiangsi, the Sheng Xiangsi you didn't want, the one you abandoned overseas!"
"I've changed my mind!"
The man's expression darkened as he watched her, his gaze intense, as if he could burn her.
"Come back to me. I want you now."
"…"
Sheng Xiangsi looked at the man so close to her, her whole body enveloped by his dominant masculinity, making her fearful and trembling.
What was he saying?
Did he know how despicable he sounded?
She was a person! Not someone he could want when he wanted and discard when he didn't!
But she couldn't be bothered to argue with him.
Some things that weren't said years ago didn't need to be said now.
"No..."
She just shook her head stiffly, "I don't want to."
Don't want to?
She still doesn't want to?
He had spoken to her so kindly!
After being repeatedly rejected, Fu Hanjiang's patience was running out.
His eyes narrowed, his gaze turning icy, "When I'm speaking nicely to you, you should know when to stop playing hard to get."
Ha.
Sheng Xiangsi silently laughed. Look, even when this man was asking for her, he was still so high and mighty!
Who did he think he was?
"I haven't."
Sheng Xiangsi felt her blood freezing, but she shook her head firmly.
"I don't understand you. Don't you like Yao Leyi? You should be saying these words to her, not to me!"
As her words fell, the man's icy face became clouded with dark anger.
Everyone in Jiangcheng knew that Fu Hanjiang had an unrequited love! It could be said that this was the only regret in his twenty-something years of life.
Anyone with a bit of sense wouldn't bring it up in front of him.
Moreover, Yao Leyi was now his sister-in-law!
She had touched his nerve!
Seeing the man's displeasure, Sheng Xiangsi pressed on, "You like her so much, go pursue her… it's not uncommon for a younger brother to marry his elder brother's widow, right? As long as you both truly love each other…"
"Sheng Xiangsi!"
The man's cold and indifferent voice sounded, "Don't think you can say anything just because I'm indulging you now!"
He indulged her?
That was the funniest joke of the century!
Sheng Xiangsi closed her eyes, feeling an invisible knife stabbing into his heart, "I'm sincere. I hope your years of waiting will bear fruit, and you get to be with the one you love!"
Subtext: You two, please stay together forever and stop harming others!
"Sheng Xiangsi!"
Finally, these words completely enraged Fu Hanjiang.
His fingers moved from her face, clenching into a fist.
He was so angry, he wanted to hit someone!
