Chapter 29: Part 1 — :)

When Hu Hang came to Shen Peiran's apartment looking for him the next morning, he saw beer bottles littered all over the place. When he went further inside, he almost vomited. The room had a horrible stench.

He squatted and turned over Shen Peiran and yelled: "Peiran, are you okay? Quickly wake up! You need to go to work today."

Although Shen Peiran was still drunk, he could make out that someone was beside him. He exerted great effort to open his eyes. When he saw Hu Hang, he cursed under his breath before turning his body to go back to sleep.

"Sorry, bro. Your parents called me and told me to check up on you." Saying that, Hu Hang pulled Shen Peiran up and dragged him to the bathroom. He stuffed him in the bathtub and immediately picked up the shower head and sprayed Shen Peirans body with cold water.

Shen Peiran was startled awake. He wanted to curse at whoever it was trying to douse him in cold water, but after seeing that it was Hu Hang, he didn't say anything. He turned away his head and spoke, his voice hoarse, "Get out. I will bathe myself."

Seeing that Shen Peiran had returned to normal and wasnt intoxicated anymore, Hu Hang felt relieved. He threw the shower head on the floor and sighed: "Call your parents after you have bathed. No idea what happened here, but I will go and buy breakfast for you.

After 10 minutes, Hu Hang returned with breakfast and saw Shen Peiran dressed neatly, sitting on the sofa in a daze. Seeing Shen Peiran's behaviour, he went over and angrily scolded him: "What's wrong with you?! Don't know where your thoughts are flying off to these days. Peiran, dont behave like a fu*king idiot anymore."

Shen Peiran didn't reply, he stayed motionless.

No need to reply. It must be because of Su Yan again. Peiran, you should know your limits. There will be plenty of girls in the future, Su Yan isnt the only one. Dont blame me for being blunt. That person is now a married woman. What do you hope to get by continuing to chase after her? Must Jiang Jingchuan toss your family to bankruptcy for you to be satisfied? Dont speak. Do you know what your name is? The day you give up your right of inheritance, your older half-brother would be relaxing while having a good laugh at you! Hu Hang couldn't stand such a Shen Peiran. Once, twice, half a month, even an entire month was fine, he wouldnt mind drinking together with him - sweeping everything else aside. But seeing his best friends dispirited appearance every day, he couldnt help but be worried.

Shen Peiran suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Yesterday was Xiao Yans maternal grandfathers birthday banquet. She went there with Jiang Jingchuan.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

"Huh?" Hu Hang stared blankly.

I saw the Moments of Qin Xuan. Hu Hang, you don't understand how important she is to me. If I am to be honest with you, even if I succeeded the Shen Family. The future holds no meaning without her. Only now did Shen Peiran realise how much Su Yan meant to him.

Unable to comprehend these words, Hu Hang leaned closer to him and spoke, So you wont give up, huh? Su Yan doesnt pay any attention to you anymore. What can you do? Do you want to wait till she gives birth before giving up?!

Shen Peirans eyes became gloomy upon hearing these words, and he shook his head, I want to know why did she do this to me and what mistake did I make.

Shen Peiran didnt expect Wan Yi to bring up that matter. He faltered while explaining: I was really busy at that time

I know. Xiao Yan later told me that that day that you were celebrating your younger sisters birthday, and you couldnt just leave with your whole family there. Wan Yis tone was flat, But that day Xiao Yans condition was very critical. To tell you the truth, that time in addition to us, there was another young girl who lived with us in the dormitory and had to catch a flight the next day, but she didnt go back to take a rest, instead she transferred to a different flight time. What I dont understand is that, what a good friend can easily accomplish, how can you, as the person whom she loved, couldnt do?

Wan Yis opinion on Shen Peiran wasnt formed over one or two days. She thought it was better to let it all become clear today. Since she had already said this much, if she said the next few sentences - as long as Shen Peiran had even little consideration - he shouldnt become agitated, and might even give up by himself.

Shen Peiran could say nothing in reply. He was wrong in this matter and couldnt give any proper explanation.

I dont know what Xiao Yan meant to you, but I do know that if you really like a person, you wouldnt let her marry someone else. I even realise that if you truly care about a person, you wouldnt skirt the line legally and morally with her when she is still bound by the law of marriage. Did you ever think what would happen if someone reported your involvement with her to the mass media? How would it affect Xiao Yan? I dont mean to say that Xiao Yan is correct, as she shouldnt have pulled you along into a precarious situation.

Although Wan Yi had never been in love, she was extremely disgusted with Shen Peiran and her close friends that kind of relation. As a close friend, she couldnt distance herself and therefore had no choice except to remind Su Yan again and again when they met each other occasionally. However, Su Yan never listened. But now, her best friend finally listened to her and even corrected herself. As her best friend, Wan Yi promised that she would help her in resolving the connection with Shen Peiran.

Shen Peiran felt mortally ashamed. It wasnt that he wasnt aware of the fact he was the third party in Su Yan and Jiang Jingchuans marriage, except that it was the first time that someone pointed it out directly.

I am not acquainted with Mr. Jiang nor do I know how he treats Xiao Yan, but I do know that as long as he and Xiao Yan dont divorce, he will be her lawful husband and will be protected from the Law and public opinion. Shen Peiran, when I talked to Xiao Yan that day, she told me that she really wants to live a good life with Mr. Jiang. I feel that she is serious. What do you think?

Shen Peiran didnt know what to say. With that matter mentioned by Wan Yi at the beginning, he felt that he really wasnt in any position to comment.

His hands just slowly clenched under the table.

Even if the whole world doubted his feelings, as long as Xiao Yan believed it, he wouldnt care what other people thought about him.

Shen Peiran asked in a low voice: Did she tell you why she is ignoring me?

Wan Yi silently regarded Shen Peiran. She still didnt like him. When Su Yan had an allergic reaction, if the reason was something else, like even if he was studying, she wouldve accepted it somewhat. But he was actually celebrating another womans birthday, someone who didnt have any blood relation with him whatsoever. Since something like that happened, she truly didnt feel good about Shen Peiran.

Thats right, Su Yan didnt take it to heart afterwards because she liked him, but their friends didnt like him as they were able to see the complete picture, so there was no way theyd overlook this matter.

Barb Notes: Yep, that is the title.
