Chapter 611: 611, If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight
All she perceived was darkness, as if the world was engulfed in black, despite the lights in the room being on.
However, all Han Qianqian saw was darkness, as if the entire world was cloaked in it, and she was trapped in a boundless black hole.
Watching Shi Yuhuan leave, Han Qianqian wrapped her arms around herself and began to cry. Everything had happened so fast, she felt as if she could barely breathe.
Her father had passed away, leaving her to carry the weight of the Han Family.
But what was she to do? Her uncle, that woman, her son, and the Shi Family…
The Shi and Han families were interdependent.
She knew that the Shi family had always had their sights set on the Han family. Shi Annuo may not harbour any designs on the Han family, but the patriarch of the Shi family did.
Once her father’s death was publicized, the patriarch would certainly intervene and insist that she marry someone from the Shi family’s younger generation.
To fight her uncle, that woman, her son, and the other relatives of the Han family, she would have to choose a match and marry rather quickly.
Shi Annuo was the most obedient to the patriarch.
If she married Shi Annuo now in her father’s absence, then Annuo would inevitably become the patriarch’s pawn, and then find ways to turn all the shares belonging to the Han family to the Shi family name.
At this moment, all her energy had to be used to deal with her uncle, that woman, and her son. Therefore, she absolutely could not afford to give the Shi family a chance to exploit the situation.
Shi Yuhuan did not grow up in the Shi family, and his bond with the patriarch wasn’t very deep. Determined as he was, he would not listen to Shi Yuhuan, making him the most suitable choice.
Moreover, Shi Yuhuan had already cut ties with the Shi family. He detested everything about the Shi family. If she chose Shi Yuhuan, the hands of the Shi family would never reach the Han family.
But Shi Yuhuan was already married.
Furthermore, unlike Shi Annuo, he wouldn’t simply take her word for it. Clearly, he knew what she was thinking. Whether it was for Annuo or not, he was unlikely to agree.
While others may not know, she did – Shi Yuhuan’s true weakness wasn’t Song Qinghuan, but Shi Annuo.
He had returned to the Shi family carrying a promise, burdened with a temporary responsibility his mother had left him, all for Shi Annuo.
When choosing between Shi Annuo and Song Qinghuan, if Yuhuan had to protect one of them, she knew it would be Annuo.
So, even though Shi Yuhuan had not given her an answer, but simply left coldly, Han Qianqian knew that he might agree.
Although the probability was only 0.1 percent.
Even if it was only 0.1 percent, she could not give up. She had to avenge her father and protect the Han family.
Having lost her father, her only support, she was no longer the whimsical little princess of the Han family, but its queen.
To wear the crown, one must bear its weight.
On the cold, deserted highway, Shi Yuhuan drove mechanically back to his villa.
On the way, his mind was crowded with thoughts, all about the events that had occurred recently.
His uncle, Shi Shouye, had died mysteriously. Probably everyone would think it was his doing, but it wasn’t.
When he found out, he was momentarily shocked, but it also woke him up. Suddenly, everything seemed like it had been meticulously planned by someone.
The words of Han Qianqian didn’t move him. He knew the plots she had in mind. Perhaps part of it was for Annuo, but most of it was for the Han Family.
