100 She Couldn’t Really Understand Her
Sang Qianqian turned around and saw Wen Xu standing outside the crowd under the shade of the trees.
Two people stood beside him; Xia Sitong and Han Tianyi. If it weren’t for the broad daylight, Sang Qianqian would’ve suspected that she was seeing things.
“Sister.” Wen Xu strode over. “Tianyi said he wants to see you.”
“Qianqian,” Han Tianyi smiled.
Compared to the gloomy mood at the guardhouse last time, Han Tianyi looked much more cheerful.
“Your case…”
“Shen Hanyu dropped the case, it was settled out of court.”
Han Tianyi looked at Xia Sitong gratefully. “It was Sitong who helped me.”
The shock in Sang Qianqian’s heart was indescribable. Han Tianyi’s father was Han Shangrong, the person who killed Xia Sitong’s father, Xia Zhixin.
Xia Sitong had forgotten about the past and even pleaded for Han Tianyi; this was beyond her expectations.
“I know what you’re wondering. But if I didn’t plead for him, he would’ve really gone to jail.”
Xia Sitong bit her lip, “Brother Hanyu even threw a tantrum at me over this. However, if it can save Tianyi from jail, I’ll accept it.”
Wen Xu glanced at her. “I didn’t know you were so generous.”
“After all, Tianyi wasn’t the one who killed my father. Besides, Tianyi is my relative and he used to treat me well.”
Xia Sitong laughed, “I know that you guys were good friends with Tianyi in the past. I should’ve brought him here to meet you guys a long time ago. However, Tianyi just came to our studio, and he’s been especially busy recently, so he’s been delayed until now.”
Xia Sitong had opened an interior design studio in Ming City. Not only did she help Han Tianyi, but she even arranged for him to work in the studio.
Sang Qianqian and Wen Xu looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes. It couldn’t really be said that Han Tianyi had treated Xia Sitong well in the past. Alas, in Sang Qianqian and Wen Xu’s eyes, his treatment seemed average.
Moreover, the two of them were only distant relatives. Who would’ve thought that Xia Sitong would spare no effort in helping Han Tianyi?
Wen Xu patted Han Tianyi’s shoulder. “If that’s the case, then do your best in the future.”
“Of course, I won’t let Sitong down,” Han Tianyi said with a smile.
“There are so many people here, so let’s not stand here and talk.”
Sang Qianqian said, “I still have a class later. Why don’t I treat you to a simple meal in the canteen?”
Xia Sitong didn’t reject and nodded her head. She seemed to have something to say to Sang Qianqian as she tugged on Sang Qianqian’s arm, causing the two of them to stop while Wen Xu and Han Tianyi continued to walk forward.
“Actually, I’m here today to see you.”
Xia Sitong lowered her voice and said apologetically, “As you know, I’ve always liked Big Brother Hanyu. That’s why I was a little agitated when I saw you at Imperial Creek Terrace, and my words were a little harsh. I hope you didn’t mind.”
Sang Qianqian pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
“Uncle Shen and I talked a lot these days, and I’ve figured out some things…”
Xia Sitong continued, “I think Brother Hanyu and I should be like you and Wen Xu. It’s better to have a simple relationship. Don’t worry, I won’t have any unrealistic thoughts about brother Hanyu anymore.”
“I don’t quite understand why you’re telling me this.”
Sang Qianqian said bluntly, “You don’t have to explain to me what happened between you and President Shen.”
“I’ll be more at ease if I explain it to you. I don’t want you to misunderstand anything in the future,” Xia Sitong said sincerely.
Sang Qianqian looked at Xia Sitong steadily and realized that she couldn’t really understand her.
The last time she had met Xia Sitong at Imperial Creek Terrace, she had been filled with hostility and was impolite to her. Moreover, she had even told her not to appear by Shen Hanyu’s side again.
Now that her attitude had suddenly changed, her carefulness and sincerity was certainly strange.
So, just what had happened during this period of time? Why did Xia Sitong seem like a completely different person?

It was the peak time for eating, so there were many people in the cafeteria.
Sang Qianqian was just about to find a seat when someone shouted happily, “Sister Qianqian! There’s a seat here!”
Sang Qianqian looked in the direction of the voice and saw the siblings, Rong Yan and Rong Yi.
Ever since Rong Yi had said he wanted to chase her and was caught by Shen Hanyu, he had been avoiding Sang Qianqian.
Rong Yan had come to look for Sang Qianqian many times, but this was the first time she had seen Rong Yi since that night.
The teenager’s face was expressionless. His eyes inadvertently met Sang Qianqian’s, but he quickly avoided her.
He stood up abruptly without even looking at Sang Qianqian. “I’m full. I’ll be leaving now.”
Rong Yan was puzzled, “We just got our food and haven’t eaten yet. How can you be full?”
Sang Qianqian was a little amused. “You didn’t even touch the food. Aren’t you afraid of wasting it? Just sit here and eat before you leave.”
Rong Yi was silent for a while, and finally sat down. Sang Qianqian briefly introduced everyone to each other and had Wen Xu buy food for Xia Sitong and Han Tianyi.
Afterward, the few of them sat opposite each other while they ate.
“Big Sister Qianqian, it’s my birthday this Saturday. My big brother said that he’s going to Yushan Island to throw me a party.”
Rong Yan invited her graciously. “Why don’t you and your friends come and play too?”
“I’m going on a business trip, so I won’t be free.” Wen Xu directly refused.
Wen Hao had arranged for him to go on business trips on the weekends, and he had to deal with difficult projects and clients. If it was in the past, he might’ve quit long ago. However, this time, he was rather indifferent and treated it as an opportunity to temper himself.
“Sitong and I won’t be going,”
Han Tianyi chimed in, “Things are quite busy in the studio.”
“Don’t say that, Tianyi. No matter how busy we are, we can still make time to go to Sister Rong Yan’s birthday party.”
Xia Sitong smiled, “It’s a rare occasion to meet you today. It’s fate.”
“That’s right. It’s a deal then. Other than Brother Wen Xu, all of you have to come to my birthday party on Saturday.”
Rong Yan said happily, “I’ll pick up Sister Qianqian then, and we’ll go to Yushan Island together.”
—
After Xia Sitong and Han Tianyi left.
“Sis, don’t you think Xia Sitong is a little weird?” Wen Xu asked.
It was already strange enough that she helped Han Tianyi plead with Shen Hanyu, and it was even stranger that she had taken Han Tianyi to Sister Qian and agreed to attend Rong Yan’s birthday party.
She didn’t have a good relationship with Sister Qian in the past, and she had never had much contact with the Rong family.
“A little.” Sang Qianqian was also confused. “But it’s a good thing that Tianyi is able to come out.”
Wen Xu nodded. “I hope he can really let go of the past this time and start over.”

Since they had to go to Yushan Island on Saturday to attend Rong Yan’s birthday party, Shen Hanyu’s acupuncture treatment was changed to two in the afternoon.
Knowing that she was going to Yushan Island and would stay there for a night, Shen Hanyu was silent for a while. “When will you be back tomorrow?”
“Around noon,” Sang Qianqian said, “Don’t worry, it won’t delay the treatment.”
At four o’clock in the afternoon, Rong Yan came downstairs to pick her up on time. It was rare that the driver was Rong Yi.
Through the half-closed window upstairs, Shen Hanyu watched as Sang Qianqian got into the car and drove away. His dark eyes were filled with unreadable emotions.
