“I don’t need anyone’s permission.”

He knew very well that everyone was more rational than him now.

Ask Shang Qiqi?

Ha.

If she had agreed, would he have locked her in the house?

She was probably the most rational person now.

She had promised her grandfather back then, and now she had to worry about her grandfather’s feelings. She also had to worry about Han Jichi, Song Yunshu, the entire Shang family, the Han family, and the Song family.

She had thought of almost everything.

Did he need to ask?

So he didn’t need anyone’s permission.

He had always wanted a satisfactory result, and he still did.

He didn’t want to see it at all. He had watched her grow up bit by bit and raised her personally. In the end, she would be poached by others.

No one would know how much effort he had put into Shang Qiqi.

Why should he hand it over to others?

Other than disappointment and anger, Shang Yekun had no other emotions.

Ever since four years ago, his conversations with his son had been useless.

Even so, before last night, he felt that he would definitely know his limits.

Now, it was only a deeper disappointment.

After his anger, there was only helplessness left.

After all, he had trusted him too much in the past, so he had let go of him long ago. He had handed the entire Shang family to him.

He was his only son.

Without him, who would he hand the huge Shang family to?

He had successfully grasped his weakness.

Shang Qiqi looked at the calm and disappointed old man and her heart ached.

“Little Uncle, can you calm down?”

Shang Qingmo didn’t move and didn’t look back at her. Her voice sounded calm.

“Will you agree to be with me if I calm down?”

Shang Qiqi paused for a moment before saying,

“Calm down and regain your rationality. I believe that you won’t be conflicted about this.”

Everyone felt that he was wrong. He was so smart, how could he not realize?

Shang Qingmo sneered. “Calm down? It’s because I’m too calm and rational that things have developed to this stage.”

“If you don’t want to stay by my side willingly, you don’t have to say anything. I only want one result now. I don’t want to hear the rest.”

Shang Qiqi understood why Old Master Shang couldn’t tolerate talking to Shang Qingmo these few years.

Because they couldn’t reach an agreement.

Shang Qingmo’s phone had vibrated countless times, and Shang Qiqi could hear it clearly.

Old Master Shang’s phone would ring from time to time.

Perhaps the news of what happened at the cocktail party last night had already reached the Song family. Now, it might have affected their normal lives.

After all, with Shang Qingmo in the media, Song Yunshu would always receive attention.

Once the media caught wind of something fishy, they would not let it go. Moreover, what happened last night was not as simple as that.

She didn’t know what had happened outside.

“Little Uncle, answer the call first.”

He should have comforted Song Yunshu immediately.

Just as she finished speaking, Song Yunshu appeared at the door.

She rushed in and saw a few people standing in the living room.

She paused and strode towards them before standing in front of Shang Qingmo.

She stared at him for a long time before she suddenly sneered.

“Shang Qingmo, I’ve already taken the initiative to stand in front of you. Aren’t you willing to give me an explanation?”

“I’m sorry for what happened this morning.”

His indifference made Song Yunshu bite her lips in embarrassment.

“Where’s the explanation?”

“There’s nothing to explain.”

Song Yunshu didn’t react to Shang Qingmo’s answer. Instead, she looked at Shang Qiqi.

“So, you agreed to the marriage because of her. Now, you want to annul the marriage with me because of her? In the end… you won’t even leave me any dignity to protect her?”

Shang Qiqi, who was standing at the side, looked shocked. “Annul the engagement?”

Seeing Shang Qiqi’s reaction, Song Yunshu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She touched her forehead and paced around before turning to face Shang Qingmo.

“She still doesn’t know? Do you want to hide it forever?”

Shang Qiqi suddenly recalled what he had said last night. So this was how he handled it.

Breaking off the engagement…

Was he going to call off the engagement just like that?

“Little Uncle, you…”

“It has nothing to do with you. Don’t ask!”

“How does it have nothing to do with her?” Song Yunshu suddenly snapped. “Why should I live in her shadow? She has been gone for four years, and it’s already difficult for me to even see you. If I hadn’t deliberately said that she was in the hospital last time, would you have never appeared?”

“I’ve told you before that we’re just married and have no feelings for each other. If you want it, I won’t object or stop you from breaking off the engagement. I’ll accept anything and everything. You’ve always been free.”

“Then why did you suddenly announce the end of the engagement?”

Shang Qingmo frowned and suppressed her impatience.

“I’ve already made myself clear. In the end, I was the one who broke off the engagement and took the initiative that I’ve always given you. I apologize. You can choose not to accept it if you’re unhappy, but don’t use your feelings to restrain me.”

You should understand very well that even if you feel wronged, innocent, and unbearable, I can’t empathize with you. I won’t understand or feel guilty. Don’t put your feelings in front of me and let me ruin them!”

Song Yunshu suddenly realized that she was embarrassing herself.

Her feelings for him were disdain and even disgust.

That was why he had always felt restrained.

She understood some things very well. They had even made it clear back then—don’t covet each other’s feelings.

Even so, she felt indignant.

Why would a man who didn’t love anyone back then do such a crazy thing for another woman?

She had been by his side for so many years?

How was it bad?

“Haven’t you always prided yourself on self-interest? Shang Qingmo, are you so crazy that you didn’t think of the consequences or are you too conceited?”

Shang Qing’s dark eyes moved imperceptibly.

“Song Yunshu, there’s really no need for you to take me seriously at this time. Just tell me what you want. There’s no need to act like a victim.”

Song Yunshu paused for a few seconds before chuckling.

“…Forget it, it’s indeed a waste of my feelings. However, Shang Qingmo, I won’t act as a tool that you can use anytime as you wish. Although four years is not without benefits for me, I won’t be indifferent if you end it this way. Even if it’s just to earn some face for myself, this matter won’t pass so easily!”

After saying that, her smiling gaze swept across Shang Qiqi. She turned around and bowed silently to Old Master before walking out of the villa.

Everyone present could not understand their conversation.

It seemed that there were other things that they did not know about the marriage.

Shang Yekun didn’t look too good, but he couldn’t be bothered to ask what Shang Qingmo was.

There was no point in asking.

He took a deep breath and looked at Shang Qiqi. “Qiqi, come back with me first.”

“No.” Shang Qingmo was stubborn. She turned to the butler and said, “Uncle Chen, bring my father home. I still have something to handle. Qiqi… I’ll bring her back sooner or later.”

Uncle Chen nodded and agreed. “Old Master, Young Master is right. It’s chaotic outside now. Give him some time to settle his matters before talking about Miss Qiqi.”

He deliberately emphasized the word “Anxin” to remind the old man that if he forcefully took Shang Qiqi away, who knew what Shang Qingmo would do?

She had to appease him first. At the very least, he had to salvage the situation for the Shang family.

Shang Yekun pursed his lips. He understood what the butler meant. Thinking about it carefully, it wouldn’t change anything if he continued to waste time with Shang Qingmo.

“Old Master, Young Master is still injured. We have to go to the hospital as soon as possible.”

The butler reminded him again. Old Master Shang’s eyes twitched and he snorted coldly. He walked towards the door without a word.

When Shang Qiqi heard the butler’s last sentence, her heart skipped a beat.

Injured?

It turned out that she had seen his expression when she went downstairs. Was he injured?

When the butler finally closed the door, Shang Qingmo’s tense body relaxed and she staggered.

“Little Uncle!”

Shang Qiqi was shocked and hurriedly held his arm, but she couldn’t resist his weight. In the end, Shang Qingmo held the railing beside her and sat on the stairs.

His face was even paler than before. His brows were tightly furrowed, and sweat was visible on his forehead and cheeks.

Shang Qiqi crawled to his side in a panic. She looked at him helplessly and asked in a trembling voice, “Uncle, what’s wrong?”

The servants hurriedly called the hospital.

“The hospital…”

“I’m not going to the hospital!”

Shang Qingmo interrupted the servant. His heavy voice frightened the servant so much that she almost threw the phone away.

At this moment, Shang Qiqi also saw the shocking rod mark on Shang Qingmo’s neck. Her eyes narrowed.

With trembling hands, she pulled Shang Qingmo’s tie and lifted his collar. Other than the mark, she could vaguely see bruises on his shoulders.

Before she could take a closer look, Shang Qingmo grabbed her hand.

She looked up at him and her eyes met his.

“Did Grandpa hit you?”

Shang Qingmo looked at her red and worried eyes. Her lips twitched slightly and she lowered her head to press her forehead against hers.

Shang Qiqi was stunned on the spot.

“Yes… He wants to take you away. I forbid it.”

His warm breath landed on her face and his low and gentle voice sounded smug and aggrieved.

Shang Qiqi’s eyelashes fluttered and her chest ached.

“Let’s go to the hospital.” She turned her head slightly to avoid the intimacy between the two of them. She looked at the servant who was at a loss. “Let’s go to the hospital…”

“No need.” Shang Qingmo refused again, but seeing Shang Qiqi’s worried expression, she said, “Get the doctor here.”

The servant nodded quickly.

Shang Qiqi heaved a sigh of relief.

She had always thought that Shang Qingmo’s injuries were only on her neck and shoulders.

In the end, when she heard the doctor say with a serious expression that his left knee was fractured, his right leg was congested with blood, and both his shoulders had different degrees of injuries, she couldn’t help but feel heartache and shock.

Grandpa actually hit Uncle so hard?

And he only wanted to prevent her from being taken away?

She closed her eyes in despair. Why…

Things had come to this?

Shang Qiqi stood by the bed with Shang Qingmo holding her hand. The hand that was holding hers was so strong that her fingertips turned white.

Even though he looked like he was in pain, he refused to let go of her.

Even after the doctor had treated his injuries and walked out of the room, he did not let go of her.

Shang Qiqi looked at him in a daze. She guessed that he must not have slept well last night. Now that she had relaxed a little, she could see the fatigue in his eyes.

“Come up.”

After some time, Shang Qingmo suddenly tugged at her hand.

She broke the silence and looked a little lost.

Shang Qingmo moved to the side and made way for her.

Shang Qiqi didn’t move, but Shang Qingmo said, “Do you want me to carry you up?”

She pursed her lips and looked at him. “Little Uncle, this isn’t appropriate…”

Shang Qingmo sat up silently.

Shang Qiqi was shocked. “What are you doing?!”

“Come up.”

“…”

Seeing that Shang Qingmo was really about to get out of bed, Shang Qiqi finally laid down slowly.

Her slender body was almost hanging over the bed. The distance she deliberately distanced herself from Shang Qingmo made him unhappy. Looking at her back, he continued,

“Come in.”

Shang Qiqi fell silent for a while before moving in gently.

After that, he didn’t say anything. Just when Shang Qiqi thought that he wouldn’t do anything else, he suddenly leaned towards her.

His warm chest pressed against her back and his arm landed on her waist. In the end, he slowly tightened his grip, almost embedding her into his body.

He buried himself in her neck, his breath landing on her skin.

Her body tensed as she heard his voice.

“I need to sleep for a while. Be good and don’t leave, okay?”

Shang Qiqi grabbed the bedsheets nervously and hummed softly.

There was no sound behind her for a while, and her breathing gradually became heavy.

Shang Qiqi looked at the furnishings around her. She was more unfamiliar with this room than familiar.

Even four years ago, she rarely came to this room.

This was his territory. She vaguely remembered that when she was young, he rarely allowed her to enter his room.

Occasionally, she would act coquettishly and shamelessly. In the past ten years, she could be counted on one hand.

She had imagined such a scene countless times in the past, but she didn’t dare to imagine it again.

Unexpectedly, her dream had come true.

However, things were too complicated. It wasn’t something that she could resolve after making a choice.

She didn’t expect him to cancel the engagement.

Even if she and Han Jichi really announced their engagement, could they really break the rumors?

Perhaps her uncle was right.

She shouldn’t have come back.

Then… could he pretend that she had never come back?

She suddenly felt a strong sense of suffocation in her chest.

After a long while, she took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

With this action, the arm on her waist suddenly tightened and a low and hoarse voice sounded.

“Do what?”

Shang Qiqi’s heart ached for his constant vigilance. She bit her lips hard and closed her eyes. Pretending to be asleep, she turned around and buried her head in his embrace.

Shang Qingmo raised his arm slightly and saw her sleeping soundly in his embrace. His eyes flickered and he lowered his arm to hug her.

Shang Qiqi couldn’t help but feel nervous acting in front of Shang Qingmo.

However, unknowingly, she fell asleep in Shang Qingmo’s arms.

When she woke up, Shang Qingmo was no longer on the bed.

She sat up abruptly and searched the bathroom and changing room, but there was no one there.

She opened the door and ran downstairs. The servant hurried over.

“Miss, what’s wrong?”

“Where’s my uncle?”

The servant replied, “Master has gone out. Do you need lunch now?”

Shang Qiqi shook her head. “But he’s injured…”

“It’s probably because the company is in a hurry.”

Shang Qiqi paused.

‘Yes.’

It must be chaotic outside today. Everything was waiting for him to settle.

But how much could he endure with such serious injuries?

What would Grandpa do?

And the Song family.

And the Han family…

She glanced at the door instinctively, but the servant blocked her view instinctively.

“Miss, Master specially instructed you to rest at home after dinner…”

Shang Qiqi knew that he wouldn’t let her out.

She lowered her gaze and remained silent for two seconds before turning to go to the dining room. “Make lunch for me first.”

The servant heaved a sigh of relief.

*

The Hua Chen TV building was surrounded by reporters early in the morning.

Finally, Shang Qingmo arrived.

The security guards immediately escorted Shang Qingmo to the entrance of the television building.

“CEO Shang, did you decide to annul the engagement this morning?”

“I heard that the Song family doesn’t know. Why didn’t you hold the wedding after being engaged to Miss Song for four years? Why did you suddenly announce the annulment?”

“President Shang, I heard that you broke off the engagement because of your niece? You and Miss Song have been engaged for four years, but you refused to hold a wedding because of your niece?”

Shang Qingmo suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the reporter who asked the last question.

The reporters gradually quietened down and raised their microphones, waiting for Shang Qingmo to speak.

“The engagement and annulment were made because of my personal problems. Hold the pen in your hand tightly, or you don’t have to hold it anymore.”

This was obviously a threat.

The reporters were unwilling to give up on such a huge piece of news.

“Then, Mr Shang, can you clarify your current relationship with your niece?”

Shang Qingmo’s eyes darkened for a long time before he spoke slowly under everyone’s watchful gazes.

“She’s not my niece.”

There was an uproar.

This was tantamount to confessing his intentions to the public.

Shang Qiqi was not his niece, so they could be in a relationship.
