118 She Had Never Seen Anyone Who Smeared Their Own Face

Even Guo Dingsong was a little surprised. “Xiaoshuang, why are you looking for her?”

Ruan Xiaoshuang pursed her lips. “I want to ask Qianqian about someone.”

...

She didn’t say who she was looking for, nor did she say why she was looking for Sang Qianqian. Clearly, she didn’t want Guo Dingsong to know the inside story.

Guo Dingsong knew that this was probably another matter of love. If it was really related to the Ruan family, Ruan Xiaoshuang would have mentioned it long ago.

He sighed, but in the end, he didn’t ask any more questions and walked a little further.

Sang Qianqian was puzzled. “Miss Ruan, who do you want to ask me about?”

“You, do you have an older brother called Sang Minglang?”

Ruan Xiaoshuang’s voice was very soft. “Is he okay now?”

When she said the two words ‘Sang Minglang’, her voice seemed to be exceptionally gentle.

Sang Qianqian was taken aback. “My brother is fine. You know him?”

Ruan Xiaoshuang forced a smile. “I know him. He can be considered… A friend.”

She seemed to be a little hesitant. After a while, she said softly, “Is your brother married?”

Sang Qianqian was even more confused, but she still answered honestly, “No, he doesn’t even have a girlfriend.”

Under the faint moonlight, Sang Qianqian could clearly see tears forming in Ruan Xiaoshuang’s eyes.

Her hands trembled slightly as she took out an ordinary silver ring from her bag. “Can you help me pass this to your brother and ask him if he still remembers? If he remembers and is still willing to see me, he can come and find me. I will stay in Ming City for three or four days and leave after Uncle Guo’s birthday. If he doesn’t remember,”

Ruan Xiaoshuang was silent for a moment before she took Sang Qianqian’s hand and placed the ring in her hand. “I’ll have to trouble Qianqian to throw it away for me.”

After saying this, Ruan Xiaoshuang didn’t stay and turned to leave. But the moment she turned around, Sang Qianqian could clearly see the tears coming out of her eyes.

Looking at her back, Sang Qianqian suddenly thought of her brother’s past.

In the past, Sang Minglang was a typical rebellious teenager, and his father-son relationship with Sang Pengcheng wasn’t good. In fact, it could even be said that they couldn’t get along.

On the eve of Sang Minglang’s study abroad, he had a big fight with Sang Pengcheng for some reason and went to the airport with his luggage overnight. He stayed overseas for four years and never returned home.

Additionally, he did not take a single cent of the living expenses and school fees that Sang Pengcheng had given him. He had managed to survive for four years with the money from his scholarship and part-time job.

Afterward, he was going to graduate and return to his country, but for some reason, Sang Minglang got into a fight with someone in a bar and ended up in prison.

Sang Pengcheng personally rushed over to take care of it and compensated the injured with quite a bit of money, before letting Sang Minglang out safely.

Not long after that, Sang Minglang got into a car accident again because he was distracted while driving. He was seriously injured and was on the verge of death.

Sang Pengcheng brought along Sang Qianqian, who was only twelve or thirteen years old at that time, and rushed overseas overnight to see Sang Minglang for the last time.

Luckily, Sang Minglang was very lucky and managed to survive. When Sang Qianqian saw her brother at the hospital, he was unconscious and his body was covered in wires. She was holding his hand and wailing.

She remembered very clearly that on the ring finger of her brother’s right hand, he was wearing a simple silver ring, just like the one in front of her.

It was summer break at that time, but it was winter abroad, and there was a rare snow. During that time, Sang Pengcheng braved the bitter cold and ran long distances every day to buy all sorts of food that Sang Minglang loved.

Sang Qianqian couldn’t help much and could only call him ‘Big Brother’ non-stop, racking her brains to come up with all sorts of fun little tricks to make Sang Minglang happy.

The father and daughter duo took care of Sang Minglang for over a month, all the way until he was discharged from the hospital.

On the night before they returned to the country, Sang Pengcheng and Sang Minglang talked for a very long time in their room.

Sang Qianqian didn’t know what they were talking about, but it seemed to have something to do with a girl. She vaguely heard her father say, “No matter how good that girl is, she’s about to get married. It’s useless if you can’t forget her.”

That night, Sang Qianqian waited until very late and fell asleep on the sofa. After the incident, she asked her brother and father who the girl was.

However, they all kept it a secret and said that she had heard wrong. There was no girl at all. Soon after, the ring on her brother’s finger was also gone.

However, after that, Sang Minglang’s personality suddenly changed. After he completed his studies and returned to the country, he brought back many fun gifts for Sang Qianqian and treated her even better than before.

He was no longer as impulsive and irritable as he used to be, and he was no longer at odds with Sang Pengcheng. Instead, he had become much more mature.

Under his father’s careful nurturing, he quickly became his father’s most capable assistant. He respected his father and doted on Sang Qianqian. He was a true son, a true brother.

The family could be said to be living in harmony and happiness. The car accident that year and the long conversation they had on that snowy night were gradually forgotten by Sang Qianqian.

However, Ruan Xiaoshuang’s actions tonight and the ring in her hand subconsciously made her recall those past events.

She had an inexplicable feeling that the ring her brother had worn and Ruan Xiaoshuang’s ring were a pair.

Under the light of the street lamp, Sang Qianqian took a photo of the ring and sent it to Sang Minglang.

[Brother, do you still remember this?]

Almost at the next moment, her phone rang urgently.

Her brother’s tone was even more urgent than the ringing of the phone. “How did you get this ring?”

Sang Qianqian knew that her guess was pretty accurate. Ruan Xiaoshuang and her brother probably had a deep relationship.

“Brother, I met Sister Xiaoshuang.”

Sang Qianqian consciously changed the way she addressed her. She continued, “If you’re willing to see her-”

Sang Minglang interrupted her, “She’s in Ming City now?”

“Yes, she has something to do in Ming City. She will stay for a few days before leaving…”

Sang Qianqian said, “I met her by chance. She came to look for me and asked me about you.”

Sang Minglang took a deep breath, “What did she tell you?”

“She asked me if you’re married and if you’re doing well.”

“Tell her that I’m not doing well.”

“But I’ve already told her that you’re doing well…”

Sang Minglang immediately frowned. “You didn’t tell her about the Sang family’s situation in Yuecheng, did you?”

“No, not really. She doesn’t even know that you’re in Yuecheng, so I told her that you’re doing well. She didn’t ask for details, so of course I didn’t say anything.”

Sang Qianqian was puzzled. “Brother, what’s going on between you and Sister Xiaoshuang?”

“Nothing much.”

Sang Minglang’s tone turned slightly cold. “Just tell her that after the Sang family’s Hongyuan group went bankrupt, I’ve been unemployed to this day. I don’t think about improving myself, and I’m extremely dispirited. Furthermore, I even rely on you and Dad to pay for my living expenses. In any case, you can say whatever you want.”

Sang Qianqian was dumbfounded. “Why, Brother?”

People always put gold on their own faces. Sang Qianqian had never seen anyone who smeared their own face.

“Don’t worry and just do as I told you.”

Sang Minglang said indifferently, “In any case, aren’t you already misunderstood by Ding Aojia and the others as a person in dire straits? It would be better for me to be added to the mix.”

Sang Qianqian was speechless.
