nWhen Shi Qiuran saw this scene, her heart ached.
nIf not for her, Qian Qian would not have married a vegetable.
nThere would also be boys like Song Yan who would heal her and love her.
nLin Shiming was not the only type of man in the world.
n“Auntie, I have something to say to Qian Qian. Can I take her away for a while?” Song Yan asked Shi Qiuran.
n“Yes, of course.” Shi Qiuran nodded.
nSong Yan pulled Shi Qian out.
nHe found a café near the hospital.
n“Qian Qian, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I lost you for so long. I didn’t know you had suffered so much. I don’t know how you survived all these years! I’m sorry.” Song Yan held Shi Qian’s hand, her eyes filled with heartache.
nShi Qian drew her hand back.
nFor some reason, she had a strange feeling.
nShe was not used to such intimate touches.
nShe and Song Yan had grown up. They were no longer children.
n“Song Yan, how are you doing overseas? Do you have a girlfriend?” Shi Qian wanted to change the topic and asked casually.
n“Haven’t I always had a girlfriend?” Song Yan asked with a smile.
nShi Qian was stunned. “Who is it?”
nSong Yan opened his mouth. “You!” The words stuck in his throat.
nShe pretended not to understand. She was being deliberately evasive.
nIt had to be because she was married.
n“Qian Qian, I’ve learned about Auntie’s condition. In her condition, she can only undergo surgery. I can take Auntie overseas for treatment. I know that you married that vegetable to raise money to treat Auntie. You don’t have to worry about Auntie anymore. You can divorce that vegetable immediately.”
nAt the next table sat an old man with white hair.
nHe frowned a little hearing that.
n“How can I mention divorce to a vegetable? He won’t hear it if I do,” Shi Qian retorted with a faint smile.
nShe also wanted to take the opportunity to muddle over this topic.
nShe picked up the menu and placed it in front of Song Yan. “Song Yan, there’s western food here. Let me treat you to a meal and you can order.”
n“Qian Qian, marrying a vegetable is like jumping into a fire pit. Do you want to spend the rest of your life guarding a vegetable? Are you worried that their family will pester you and not let you go? I’ll settle it for you, okay?”
nShi Qian said nothing. She took a deep breath.
n“Don’t be afraid, Qian Qian. I’ll never leave you again. I’ll take care of you. I’ll protect you. I’ve come to keep our promise. Will you marry me, Qian Qian?”
nShi Qian put down her menu.
nShe looked at Song Yan.
nFor some reason, when Song Yan said she would marry him,
nThere was no trace of joy or anticipation in her heart.
nOf course, she could never get a divorce.
nAt least, not until Fu Sinian woke up.
n“Song Yan, no one forced me to marry him. I married him willingly. Although he is unconscious now, I believe he will wake up.”
n“And after he wakes up? Do you know him well? Do you know what he was like? Can you accept being with a stranger?”
nSong Yan did not understand why Shi Qian was unwilling to leave a vegetable!
nEven more unacceptable was the outcome.
n“Song Yan!” a voice bellowed.
nMrs. Song rushed over.
nShe looked at Shi Qian with an irrepressible anger.
nShe picked up the water on the table and splashed it lightly at Shi Qian!
