Chapter 299 - Tell Me, What Happened Again This Time?
She whipped out a few tissues and wiped the water stains away from her face. Staring at herself in the mirror, she squinted and scrutinized herself.
She was overwhelmed with a mix of emotions…
Crushing the tissues into balls, Luo Anning laughed self-deprecatingly.
She looked up and traced her features with her fingers before saying, “Luo Anning, you’re really foolish and naive. It’s quite amusing.”
At this moment, her mobile phone rang all of a sudden. Luo Anning took a deep breath, quickly adjusted her feelings and answered the call.
“Anning, do you have time tonight? Come out for dinner together, Momo will be there too,” Mo Qiange said tenderly.
Luo Anning leaned against the side of the sink and stared at a corner. “No you guys go ahead. I’m at Old Mr. Rong’s mansion.”
As much as she tried her best to hide her emotions, Mo Qiange could still sense that something was amiss with her. “Anning, what happened?”
Yeah, what happened?
I’ve just discovered that Mo Xiyan and Rong Yan are wearing couple watches.
I have nothing in common with him.
When we got married two years ago, the rings were prepared by others and the wedding photos were only taken for the banquet. There was only one, in fact.
It was the only picture that was displayed in front of the luxurious banquet hall for the viewing pleasure of the guests.
In other words, there was nothing else to prove that they were married, apart from their marriage certificate.
Luo Anning knew that she was greedy and that she would demand that she be the center of her lover’s world, once she fell in love with him.
She hoped for that because she could do the same for him.
“Qiange, help me investigate Mo Xiyan… ”
“Okay.” Mo Qiange agreed without hesitation. He continued, “But Anning, are you really all right? Would you like me to pick you up later?”
Luo Anning answered resignedly, “Nah, I’m alright. I’ll treat you and Momo to a meal another day. I’ll pass today.”
“Okay, you take care of yourself, I will find out about this Mo Xiyan as soon as possible.”
After hanging up, Luo Anning put away her mobile phone, and was just about to go out. When she opened the door, her wrist was grabbed tightly and she fell against a hard chest.
“Tell me, what is it again this time?” Rong Yan asked in a low voice, reeking of cigarettes.
Rong Yan grabbed Luo Anning’s wrists tightly and pressed her waist against him, making it impossible for her to move.
She struggled and tried to push him away. “Let go of me.”
“Let go of you? And then?” he asked coldly.
“Rong Yan, will you let go of me? I don’t want to argue with you.” She was too exhausted to even argue.
He grabbed her chin and raised it again afterwards. “Alright, let’s not argue then. Can you tell me why you’re throwing a tantrum right now?”
“It’s nothing, I just saw your matching watch with Mo Xiyan’s,” Luo Anning laughed with a tinge of self-deprecation.
Rong Yan released her and took a step back while Luo Anning sneered, smoothed out her messy hair, and walked past him.
…
Before they reached the living room, they heard Old Mr. Rong hollering in exasperation, “Who gave you the permission to enter!?! Butler Zhang, what were you doing? How could you allow just anyone to come in?”
