Chapter 141 - 141 I Can Afford to Wait

141 I Can Afford to Wait

That nightmare had strangely overlapped with many things in reality. As a result, she found it difficult to treat this dream as just a dream.

Sang Qianqian recalled the words that the girl had said before she jumped off the building in the dream.

At that time, her heart felt empty and cold. It was as if she was actually in that cold wind and rain, with nowhere to hide. She was completely drenched, and the coldness seeped into her heart.

She didn’t know why she suddenly had such a dream. She didn’t know how the girl in her dream was related to her.

!!

Before the dream occurred, she had always thought that Shen Hanyu was the one who had caused her to be locked up and tortured in the mental hospital.

However, from what she had said, she didn’t seem to hate Shen Hanyu. Instead, it was a deep longing, reluctance, helplessness, and a sad and heartbroken farewell.

Sang Qianqian couldn’t understand the meaning of those words. Since she didn’t hate Shen Hanyu in her dream…

It was obvious that the tragedy of the Sang family’s destruction in her dream had nothing to do with Shen Hanyu.

If there was nothing between them, why couldn’t two people who liked each other be together?

How could she have harmed the Sang family and Shen Hanyu?

Moreover, if Shen Hanyu really didn’t do anything to the Sang family, then…

Then, what was the meaning of the first dream?

Why did it give her the impression that it was Shen Hanyu who destroyed the Sang family and forced her to avoid him for five years?

Shen Hanyu hadn’t had it easy for the past five years, and now she was finally with him. But now, the dream appeared again to remind her of something.

Don’t like Shen Hanyu?

But why couldn’t she like him?

Sang Qianqian could not describe what she was feeling right now.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Besides uneasiness and confusion, there was also a faint resentment that she did not know who to vent to.

Who did she offend?

She only liked Shen Hanyu and wanted to be with him, so why did she have to keep getting such nightmares?

Sang Qianqian wanted to force herself to ignore this nightmare, so she turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up.

The cold water splashed on her face, but she only felt colder. Her hands were trembling slightly.

When she went downstairs uneasily, she saw that Shen Hanyu had woken up and was talking on the phone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room.

The call was probably from Shen Shaofeng, as he was talking about Xia Sitong.

Sang Qianqian walked over quietly. He had just finished his call when he turned around.

Shen Hanyu’s cold expression softened a little when he saw the girl. “Why are you up so early?”

Sang Qianqian didn’t say a word. Instead, she held onto his shoulders, tiptoed, and kissed him on the lips.

Shen Hanyu was startled, and his dark eyes darkened.

Her kiss was very light without any pattern, and was even a little immature, but she refused to stop.

Shen Hanyu couldn’t hold it in any longer. Instead of being the guest, he cupped the back of her head and kissed her deeply.

The warm embrace, the clear and familiar breath, and the passionate kiss diluted the coldness brought by the dream. Sang Qianqian hugged his neck tightly and tried her best to respond to him.

She wanted to pull herself out of the dream completely and not think about what the dream might have foretold. She could still live a good life with Shen Hanyu in reality if she simply ignored the nightmares.

Shen Hanyu’s breathing became more and more rapid, and his grip on her shoulder became heavier. Usually, even if she took the initiative, or didn’t even do anything, he would be defeated.

Moreover, it was early in the morning. How could he withstand her teasing?

Shen Hanyu carried Sang Qianqian into the bedroom and placed her on the bed. The indulgent and sincere kiss lingered inch by inch.

The morning breeze blew in through the window and ruffled the curtains. A ray of sunlight shone in and landed on the girl’s blushing face.

She closed her eyes and clutched the bedsheet tightly with an unspeakable nervousness.

However, Shen Hanyu’s movements slowly stopped. The girl opened her misty eyes slightly and looked at him in confusion.

She seemed to be asking him why he didn’t continue.

Shen Hanyu pulled the blanket over her and held her in his arms. He lowered his eyes and kissed her on the forehead.

“Didn’t you say that you’ll marry me after my treatment? It won’t be long, I can afford to wait.”

His voice was hoarse and soft. “It’s still early. Sleep a little longer.”

Sang Qianqian’s heart ached as she buried her head in his arms and let out a soft “Mm”.

She had slept too late last night and was woken up by that nightmare. The man’s embrace made her feel inexplicably at ease.

Sang Qianqian had fallen asleep just like that. When she woke up, the sun was already high in the sky, and the room was filled with warm sunlight.

Shen Hanyu had already left, but there was a note on the bedside table.

Hiswords were full of vigor and strength. “Rest well at home. I’ve applied for leave on your behalf, so you don’t have to go to school.”

Sang Qianqian was speechless. Who allowed him to take leave for her on his own?

However, her heart was filled with warmth. The low and heavy mood in the morning had dissipated a lot.

What replaced it was the courage and determination to face everything. When she had her first nightmare, she was even more terrified and uneasy than she was now.

But didn’t many things change after that?

Last time, she was easily deceived by that nightmare and forced herself to stop loving Shen Hanyu. She chose to fake her death and leave Ming City for five years. This time, she really didn’t want to give up just like that.

She had once changed the nightmare’s ending on her own, so she could definitely do it again this time with Shen Hanyu.

Even if there were unknown risks, she was sure they would be able to overcome them and get through it safely.

...

When she came out of the bedroom, Qu Jiang came over with a smile. “Young Miss, let’s go and eat first. “Young Miss Rong Yan and Young Master Rong Yi should be here soon.”

Sang Qianqian was slightly startled.

She picked up her phone and called Shen Hanyu. “Why did you let Rong Yan and Rong Yi come?”

On the other end of the phone, his voice was full of love. “So that you have company. I remember you had a lot of fun when you went out with them last time?”

The incident with Ding Aojia last night must’ve traumatized Sang Qianqian slightly, or else she wouldn’t have been so abnormal this morning.

Letting Rong Yan and Rong Yi accompany her to relax might make her mood better.

Sang Qianqian deliberately said, “Didn’t you say you don’t like me getting too close to other men? Aren’t you afraid that Rong Yi and I will do something?”

“I’m not afraid now,” Shen Hanyu replied with a smile.

Sang Qianqian wanted to laugh. So he’s not afraid now?

Was it because she had promised to marry him that he was so fearless and thought that nothing could happen between her and Rong Yi?

—

...

When Sang Qianqian finished her meal, Rong Yi and his sister arrived.

She hadn’t seen Rong Yi for some time, and his loneliness and sadness from the other night could no longer be seen on his face. Instead, he had returned to his lazy and unruly appearance when they first met.

When facing Sang Qianqian, he no longer avoided her gaze. At least, he gave Sang Qianqian the feeling that he was calm.
