I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot

Chapter 22

Neighbors Opposite Each Other

Sang Pengcheng felt a little upset.

Back then, it was for Sang Qianqian’s sake that he’d proposed to treat Mrs. Shen’s illness. However, it was mostly because he appreciated Shen Shaofeng that he’d put in so much effort for Mrs. Shen’s sake.

Who would’ve thought that his good intentions would end up in such a situation?

Sang Qianqian’s emotions were even more complicated. Even if lightning struck her, it wasn’t enough to describe her feelings.

Fate’s malice towards the Sang family was crueler than in her dreams.

Although the Shen family wasn’t bankrupt, Xia Zhixin died, and Shen Shaofeng was seriously injured. Additionally, Shen Hanyu’s mother also passed away.

Even if the police could prove Sang Minglang’s innocence in the future, what would happen to Mrs. Shen’s death?

“Shaofeng,” Sang Pengcheng spoke first, “My condolences. I’ll definitely give you an explanation regarding Mrs. Shen’s matter.”

“Sang Pengcheng, do you think you can cover up your sins by finding a scapegoat?”

Shen Shaofeng stared at Sang Pengcheng with hatred and resentment. “I will seek justice for my wife. Even if the police can’t do anything to you, you’ll get your retribution sooner or later!”

Sang Pengcheng was enraged. “I didn’t expect President Shen to have such a deep misunderstanding of me! But, since that’s the case, It’s useless for me to say anything else!”

As the president of the Hongyuan Group, he was usually in a high position and was decisive in the business world. Therefore, people would greet him with a smile and bow to him wherever he went.

He repeatedly lowered his posture in front of Shen Shaofeng, but he didn’t expect the other party to say such hurtful words!

No matter how good Sang Pengcheng’s self-restraint was, he couldn’t help but be filled with anger. Finally, he flicked his sleeves and left.

He turned around and saw that Sang Qianqian was still standing at the same spot. So he said sternly, “Qianqian, why aren’t you leaving?”

Sang Qianqian looked up at Shen Hanyu. His face was expressionless, his dark eyes were cold, and his eyes were slightly red.

From the start to the end, he didn’t even look at Sang Qianqian.

In the end, Sang Qianqian didn’t say anything and quickly followed behind her father.

...

Even if the police clearly stated that Mrs. Shen’s death was an accident by the nurse and that they couldn’t hold Sang Pengcheng to account for it.

However, Shen Shaofeng still insisted on filing a lawsuit against Sang Pengcheng.

He even sent a notice to the media, accusing Sang Pengcheng of taking revenge and secretly instructing the nurse to disclose the news of his injury to Mrs. Shen.

Although Shen Shaofeng couldn’t produce any evidence, this notice and complaint were enough to set off a great uproar.

The explosive news of the father and son of the Sang family being accused of murder was like a huge rock falling from the sky, smashing the family’s stocks and causing them to suffer huge losses.

The situation wasn’t the worst; it was only worse.

The first thing Shen Shaofeng did after he was discharged from the hospital was to accept the olive branch from the Han family’s Kexing Group, despite the opposition of Shen Hanyu, Wei Qinghua, and some of the company’s management.

He officially announced that the Shen family’s company had accepted the Han family’s investment, and the two sides would cooperate comprehensively.

In the domestic mobile phone market, the Sang and Han families occupied half of the market and were always evenly matched.

Although Shen Shaofeng’s company was small, it had independently developed core chip technology. Once the product was mass-produced, the impact on the Sang family would undoubtedly be huge.

Shen Shaofeng chose to cooperate with the Han family at this juncture. Anyone with eyes could see that he was targeting the Sang family.

“President Sang, what should we do now?”

The Secretary, Ju Wei, was worried. “Are we just going to let them work together like this? Should the company take any measures?”

Sang Pengcheng pondered for a long time before slowly saying, “We’ll wait and see.”

Now that things had come to this, they should only remain unchanged.

“However, once the cooperation between Shen Shaofeng and the Han family starts, our company’s mobile phone market will inevitably shrink.”

“President Sang, how can we sit still?” Ju Wei asked anxiously.

“It’s hard to say how long Han Shangrong and Shen Shaofeng’s cooperation will last,” Sang Pengcheng said lightly. “We’ll see how the situation develops before we make a response.”

The Sang family’s biggest rival was the Han family, not Shen Shaofeng.

Sang Pengcheng understood Han Shangrong’s way of doing things too well. This person was ruthless in the business world. Back then, he had fallen out with Han Shangrong because of this.

The Shen family’s chip technology was a piece of juicy meat, and Han Shangrong would most likely try to take it for himself to have absolute power.

After all, Han Shangrong had done many things, like using investments to remove founders and swallow up other companies.

Realization dawned on Ju Wei. “It’d be best if Shen Shaofeng and Han Shangrong fell out. No, it’d be best if they fought to the death.”

“Han Shangrong is an old fox. Shen Shaofeng is no match for him.”

Sang Pengcheng sighed. “I just hope that Han Shangrong will let him off the hook. Don’t let Shen Shaofeng lose everything and end up in prison.”

Sang Pengcheng was actually feeling a little sad. Shen Shaofeng once said that he wanted to expand and strengthen his mobile phone brand so he could one day go international.

But now, to take revenge on the Sang family, Shen Shaofeng had given up his ambition and pursuit of many years to be with Han Shangrong. How could it not be a pity?

Sang Qianqian’s heart sank as she listened.

Shen Shaofeng had suffered enough blows. She couldn’t imagine what would happen to him if he lost everything as her father had expected.

She recalled how Shen Hanyu helped her in the hospital that day.

Sang Qianqian thought about it and felt it necessary to remind Shen Hanyu.

When Ju Wei left, Sang Qianqian caught up with him and asked him for inside information about the Han family’s Kexing Group’s investments in many small and medium-sized companies in the past.

“Young Miss, what do you need these materials for?” Ju Wei asked curiously.

“I’m studying,” Sang Qianqian replied with a smile.

Ju Wei didn’t overthink it. He thought that Sang Qianqian wanted to understand the business world so that she could help Sang Pengcheng in the future. Hence, he was happy to prepare detailed materials for her.

Without exception, the founders of the small and medium-sized companies that the Han family had invested in were either forced to resign or resigned voluntarily. Several people had even been sentenced for the crime of occupation infringement.

Some of the cases had been reported by the media, while some couldn’t be found on the internet.

Sang Qianqian printed out the documents and took a cab to look for Xia Sitong that very night.

After such a big incident, she didn’t dare to meet Shen Shaofeng and his son, so it’d be more appropriate to ask Xia Sitong to hand it over.

Sang Qianqian believed that Shen Hanyu could figure out what was going on once he saw the materials.

Fortunately, Sang Qianqian still remembered Xia Sitong’s house. She knocked on the door for a while, but no one answered.

Just as she wondered if she’d gone the wrong way, the door opposite Xia Sitong’s house opened.

Seeing the person at the door, Sang Qianqian froze on the spot as if her pressure points had been struck.

How could she have known that not only did Xia Sitong live in the same neighborhood as Shen Hanyu, but they were also neighbors!
