Chapter 162 A Miaos Unreasonable Scene (1/2)
Shen Xinglan stood at the door for a long time before he left. Shen I followed him and failed to say anything.
”Get a bodyguard.” Back at the company, Shen Xinglan suddenly said, ”I want a woman guard.”
Shen I knew at a glance. ”I heard that a few little girls were very good last year. I will go back and choose one myself tomorrow.”
”Find one who hasn't been on a mission.” Shen Xinglan cast him a glance.
”I understand!”
When Jiang Quanyu came back, it had been another three days. During the three days, Shen Xinglan did not even go to the company, and accompanied A Miao every day. But the two of them ignored each other; one did not want to talk, and the other wanted to talk but did not know what to say.
”Are you going to keep me locked up?” That night, A Miao finally spoke, but Shen Xinglan would rather she didn't.
”Speak!” A Miao saw him staying silent, so she urged him. ”I don't care about the jade pendant or whatever you and Jiang Hua want. Don't involve me in your affairs.”
Shen Xinglan looked at her and said, ”Okay, then leave him.”
”We were never together.” A Miao gave him a contemptuous look. ”If you want his jade pendant, then it's useless to use me to blackmail him.”
She was not an idiot. She did not think much of it before as she was angry at Shen Xinglan. She had calmed down for two days. If Jiang Hua really had a bronze mirror jade pendant, he would not have it on him.
If she could think of such a simple reason, then Shen Xinglan must have also been able to. So he had locked her up, but not to blackmail Jiang Hua at all.
”If he could make decisions, he would not agree to a family marriage,” A Miao said sadly.
As a friend, she felt that it was pitiful that Jiang Hua could not make decisions about his feelings. But when Shen Xinglan heard this, he completely misunderstood...
”Do you want to marry him?” He asked ferociously, ”If he doesn't marry another, will you marry him?”
Frightened by this knowledge, he stood up and grabbed A Miao desperately. ”Don't ever think about it. We have been married. Don't think about having any other man except me in your life!”
”Let go!” A Miao saw that his eyes were red and he looked insane. She felt that he must be a lunatic again. She struggled a few times but he held her tighter.
Shen Xinglan held her close in his arms. ”I will not let go! You can only think about marrying someone else if I'm dead. ”
A Miao did not dare to move. She could detect that the man holding her was trembling all over. In order to stop stimulating him, she had to pat him on the back. ”I'm not marrying Jiang Hua. He and I are just friends.”
”I don't believe you!” Shen Xinglan pressed A Miao's head against his shoulder desperately, hoping to integrate her into his own flesh and blood so they could be together forever.
There was a moment when A Miao almost surrendered. Since Shanshan was a fake, and since Shen Xinglan would not choose between them, could she stay with him?
”You know that Jiang Hua will not trade the jade pendant, his family heirloom, for you, so stay with me.” Some words from Shen Xinglan made A Miao come to her senses.
She pushed him away with all her strength. ”How about you? If someone snatched me and made you trade all your bronze mirror jade pendants, what about you? Would you want to trade?”
”You don't believe I'd trade them for you?” Shen Xinglan looked at her and said, ”I would trade.”
A Miao shook her head. ”I don't believe you.”
”So the problem is you.” Heartbreak streaked through Shen Xinglan's eyes. ”A Miao, you don't trust me.”
This strong and sensitive girl did not trust him at all, even though he almost died after he blocked the bullet for her. Or she did not trust anyone except herself. As long as it made her feel unsafe, she hid her heart and protected herself like a stone.
A Miao did not say a word, she knew that Shen Xinglan was right.
”You know clearly that Jiang Hua cannot give you the jade pendant. Why do you want to keep me?” A Miao continued the subject from before. ”I don't like him, so I won't be sad if he doesn't come for me.”
”Or...” A Miao stared at him. ”Are you afraid he will use me to threaten you?”
Shen Xinglan suddenly smiled. ”I told you earlier, you are very smart. Now that you have guessed, then stay at ease with me!” He turned to go upstairs then turned to look at her when he reached the stairs.
”Maybe you can run away, and then see if Jiang Hua will have a falling out with his family for you, and see if I don't want those jade pendants for you.”
A Miao stood alone in the living room for a long time, then slowly went back to her room when her legs got numb. She was at a loss and did not understand why all the choices were on her, which obviously had nothing to do with her.
”I still have to say that I blame Shen Xinglan! Why did I meet that guy? Ah, ah, ah!” She buried her face in the bathtub, a string of bubbles appeared on the water, and no one knew what she said.
When Jiang Quanyu called Shen Xinglan, his tone was very bad. The reason for his bad tone was not because Shen Xinglan had taken A Miao away, but because of the woman beside him.
”Where's A Miao?”
On the contrary, Shen Xinglan seemed to be in a good mood. ”A Miao is my wife, of course, she is here.”
”She doesn't want to be with you.” Jiang Quanyu had a dark face. ”Speak plainly, what do you want?”
Shen Xinglan's tone was full of sarcasm. ”Can you make the decision? Let your fiancee talk to me.”
Jiang Quanyu looked at Xiao Yue, who frowned.
”Do you want the bronze mirror jade pendant?”
Shen Xinglan on the other side of the phone said directly, ”The Jiang family heirloom, do you want to trade it for A Miao?”
”Shen Xinglan, does A Miao know you are doing this?” Trading his beloved woman was not Shen Xinglan's style. Jiang Quanyu always felt that something was wrong.
”So your decision is not to trade.” Shen Xinglan smiled.
Jiang Quanyu, ”I...”
