Chapter 593 - Her Heart Skipped A Beat (1/2)

An Feng was conservative and stubborn, shaking her head even after hearing Nan Zhi’s explanation. “Even if they didn’t register their marriage, they still held a marriage ceremony. To the people of S Country, Shangguan Wan is their Fourth Princess Consort. If you’re with him, people will still treat you as the third party.”

An Feng held Nan Zhi soft hands, her words sincere and earnest. “It’s not that I want to stop the two of you from getting together, but the two of you are really not suitable. It’s still alright if he was from just a simple rich family, but he’s a Royalty from the Royal family, we can’t claim ties with such a high social position.

“If the public found out that you’re in a secret relations.h.i.+p with him, your reputation will be gone and you will be drowned by all of the spews of saliva from the people!”

How could Nan Zhi not understand what mother had said?

After Shangguan Wan told her the truth back then, she did not get together with Mu Sihan immediately because she was concerned and held back by these concerns as well.

“Zhizhi, don’t lose yourself.”

Nan Zhi did not want to provoke An Feng, so she merely nodded.

The two of them arrived at the daily section. An Feng only smiled gently when she saw the children products, “I have to prepare some daily items for my obedient grandson.”

If Xiaojie was not here, An Feng really wanted to return to Ning City with Nan Xiaojie. However, she was also a mother and could understand Nan Zhi’s feelings of not being able to be too far away from her son.

When An Feng was choosing some daily items for Xiaojie, Nan Zhi’s phone rang.

When she saw the caller ID, Nan Zhi’s heart thumped crazily.

She glanced at An Feng, her finger pressing the wrong b.u.t.ton to reject the call in her panic.

However, her phone rang again very quickly.

An Feng looked up at Nan Zhi, “Who’s calling?”

Nan Zhi hurriedly replied, “It’s Yanran. I accidentally rejected the call just now.”

“Then answer it.”

Nan Zhi nodded, answering the call. She spoke before the person on the other end spoke, “Yanran, aren’t you busy today? Why are you able to call me?”

The man on the other end kept silent for a few seconds, not saying anything.

Nan Zhi knew very clearly how petty that man was. He must have been angry hearing her call him Yanran. However, she did not want to make her mother unhappy either, so she could only try probing him. “If not, I’ll call you again after I return home later?”

The man did not answer her, merely asking, “Where are you?”

“I’m buying things at the supermarket with my mother.” After answering, she could not help but ask, “What about you?”

The man said softly, “Turn around and look up.”

Hearing his words, Nan Zhi’s heart started to thump harder suddenly. She turned hurriedly, looking towards the aisle in front of her.

She saw a familiar figure not too far away the moment she looked up.

He was wearing a face mask and a black suit. He was standing there, tall like a tree. Even though she could not see him clearly, she was still attracted by the elegant and cold aura he was exuding.

He had a hand in his pocket while his other hand was holding onto a thin phone.

Nan Zhi blinked. She thought for a second that she was hallucinating.

She closed her eyes, before looking towards him again. He was still holding his phone and standing there, and did not disappear from her vision.

“Zhizhi, do you think I should buy this towel for Xiaojie?”

Nan Zhi jumped in shock when she heard An Feng’s voice. She hurriedly turned around and nodded, “Mom, you can decide on anything you want.”

An Feng turned towards Nan Zhi, asking when she noticed her eyelashes fluttering and her expression slightly unnatural. “What’s wrong?”

“Mom, my stomach doesn’t feel that good. You can pick for Xiaojie first, I’ll come over after going to the washroom.”

An Feng hummed in agreement.

Nan Zhi turned around once more, but the man was no longer standing there.

Nan Zhi’s heart skipped a beat. Did he leave already?

Nan Zhi walked to where he was standing earlier. She looked around, but did not see him at all.

She continued to walk forward.
