Later, towards the end of his senior year, he had to leave school and return home because of his studies, and began to learn how to manage the company from Shang Mengzhou.
Because he was new to this field, he had a lot to learn, so he was busy almost every day.
As a result, after he left school, he rarely had time to go back to see Jiang Susu.
Moreover, ever since he learned about Jiang Susu and Shen Shiyan's relationship, for some reason, he always felt that he had no right to go back and see her.
It's been almost seven years since I was fifteen, through three years of high school and four years of university.
He silently loved someone for seven years.
The most ridiculous thing is that in the end, you can only watch the girl you like fall in love with someone else.
Whenever he thinks about these things, Shang Yanxing still feels very sad, but he has never regretted liking Jiang Susu.
Because of his busy work schedule, and because he felt he might not be able to accept seeing the two of them together, Shang Yanxing never went back to school again.
But she still frequently asked people to inquire about Jiang Susu's whereabouts and the development of her relationship with Shen Shiyan.
When he found out that the two of them were dating, he felt very upset and thought he should let go. After all, there was no point in forcing something that didn't belong to him.
But after he calmed down, he felt that it was hard for him to let go.
Yes, how can you just let go of a girl you've liked for seven years?
Gradually, he became more optimistic again, feeling that as long as the two of them were not married, he still had a chance.
After all, who hasn't had a few relationships when they were young?
Even if they're a couple now, so what? They might not end up together, right?
He persevered for seven years, so why can't he persevere a little longer now?
Therefore, because of this belief, Shang Yanxing was still unable to let go of his feelings for Jiang Susu.
Even while Jiang Susu was in college, he would still frequently inquire about her.
He later heard from people at school that the two of them were not actually together, and this news made him happy for a long time.
He thought they were already a couple. Turns out they had never been together at all.
What pained him was that he had also heard that Shen Shiyan did not like Jiang Susu, but Jiang Susu had always liked Shen Shiyan.
It's called a crush, but it's a liking that's obvious to everyone else.
Even so, the two of them still didn't get together. And Shen Shiyan seemed to know nothing about it.
After learning all this, Shang Yanxing felt even more sorry for Jiang Susu. Why did she have to like Shen Shiyan?
Is he really that good?
The girl he liked was not appreciated at all by others.
Shang Yanxing felt sorry for him, but there was nothing he could do.
They didn't end up together until the end of university.
During Jiang Susu's university years, Shang Yanxing secretly visited her several times.
As always, Jiang Susu prefers to be alone. If she's not alone, she's with Shen Shiyan.
However, Shen Shiyan's attitude is different now than it was in high school; he seems to cherish things even less now.
He seemed to have some annoyance towards Jiang Susu.
After graduating from university, Shen Shiyan returned home and joined the company with Shen Tianhua.
However, he wasn't very good at enduring hardship, so after a period of time, he returned to being the eldest son of the Shen family.
Even after graduating from university, Jiang Susu still couldn't break off contact with Shen Shiyan.
As if she still felt there was hope for the two of them, Jiang Susu would always appear in front of him whenever Shen Shiyan looked for her.
He waited silently, waiting for the day when Jiang Susu would realize that Shen Shiyan was not right for her.
When that time comes, he can appear in front of her openly and honestly.
Why not appear now? Because right now, Jiang Susu's mind is probably filled with Shen Shiyan.
Even if he were to appear, he probably wouldn't be able to win her heart.
Therefore, Shang Yanxing had been waiting for this opportunity.
He also hoped that God would be kind to him this time, and that he wouldn't have waited so many years only to receive nothing in return.
When Shang Yanxing was twenty-three years old, Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou began urging him to get married.
I hope he gets married soon and has a child.
But Shang Yanxing would always use being busy with work as an excuse to brush it off.
His heart probably can't hold anyone else now. That little girl has lived in his heart for eight years, so how could he suddenly stop liking her?
Shangyanxing cannot do that.
When Shang Yanxing turned twenty-four, Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou began introducing him to potential partners, all of whom were wealthy young ladies from similar social classes.
However, Shang Yanxing would usually refuse the invitation in person.
Because Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou were pressuring him to get married, Shang Yanxing moved out of the old house that year and lived alone in Shuixie Villa.
After leaving the old house, he felt much more at peace; at least he wouldn't hear people urging him to get married every day anymore.
It's not that he doesn't want to get married, it's just that he hasn't met the girl he likes yet.
This year marks the ninth year that he has liked Jiang Susu. Nine years have passed in the blink of an eye, and he doesn't know when it will end.
Sometimes, Shang Yanxing would feel very tired, but he couldn't bring himself to give up.
After all, Jiang Susu and Shen Shiyan have never been together, so he still has a chance. What reason is there for him to give up?
Moreover, even if he gave up, it seemed unlikely that he would fall in love with someone else, so he thought he might as well grit his teeth and persevere one more time, maybe the higher-ups would really take a chance on him this time?
And so, Shang Yanxing waited for the tenth year.
When Shang Yanxing was twenty-five years old, his grandmother passed away due to a sudden heart attack.
The old man's greatest wish was for Shang Yanxing to get married soon, but in the end, he didn't live to see Shang Yanxing get married.
Shang Yanxing felt guilty for a long time because of this incident.
Later, when Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou introduced him to a marriage, Shang Yanxing no longer made excuses and went to the appointment.
He didn't know if he could keep going, probably because his grandmother's death had been too much of a blow to him.
Shang Yanxing felt that he really couldn't hold on any longer.
Before she passed away, Grandma held his hand and said she hoped he could get married this year.
Every time he thought of those words, he felt incredibly unfilial. Although Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou didn't blame him, Shang Yanxing still felt very guilty, feeling that he had let his grandmother down.
