449 Returning to the Capital (1/2)

An'an's supported herself against the wall and she walked out of the walk-in wardrobe slowly.

In the room, Wang Yingying was tidying up her clothes when she heard some footsteps. She turned her head around and spotted An'an.

An'an's alluring face was all pale, she seemed low-spirited and didn't bother to check anyone out. She opened the room door and left.

She had left.

Wang Yingying gandered at Lu Yan, making a snide remark. ”She's left, it's happening for real this time round. She won't come back anymore.”

Lu Yan pursed his lips, lowering his eyes and he didn't speak.

Wang Yingying arrived beside Lu Yan, lifting her hand and giving him one tight slap on the face.

Slap! The crisp sound of a slap resounded in the entire room. Lu Yan was slapped hard.

”Lu Yan, our engagement banquet is called off. You and An'an are both sick in the mind!” Wang Yingying screamed furiously before storming out of the room.

Wang Yingying was the daughter of a wealthy family and had received elite education since young. Lu Yan had asked for her to moan loudly just now and not do anything else. Her only task would be to moan.

There was a girl hidden away in the walk-in wardrobe, he was making use of her.

It was the greatest form of humiliation for a woman.

She had understood everything, Lu Yan and An'an were unusual. They had secretly began a taboo relationship even with their great age difference. They were both sick in the mind.

She wasn't able to enter their world and also didn't want to participate in their affairs. And so, their engagement would be called off.

…

At the engagement banquet.

An'an had gone back downstairs and found Tang Mo'er, speaking softly, ”Little sister-in-law.”

Tang Mo'er turned around, noticing An'an's pale face and downcast demeanor, she was a little confused. She didn't know who An'an was, but she felt a dull ache in her chest. On instinct, she was concerned about An'an and went into a state of panic. ”What happened?”

An'an's legs weakened and she slid downwards.

Tang Mo'er rapidly stretched out her arms, getting hold of An'an's frail body. ”What exactly happened… to…”

Tang Mo'er gaped at An'an in silence. That was because she had noticed the love bites peeking through An'an's low-cut evening dress.

Tang Mo'er's heart squeezed tight and she hugged An'an tightly, prodding her, ”Were you taken advantage of by someone? Don't be afraid, tell me who is it, I'll confront him now, I'll…”

An'an fluttered her luscious eyelashes while looking in Tang Mo'er's eyes. ”Shh, little sister-in-law, don't tell anyone about it. I did it of my own accord and now I've truly lost all hope. I just want to leave this place, little sister-in-law, let's just head home…”

Tang Mo'er contemplated for a moment before she nodded her head in agreement. ”Alright, let's go home right now!”

But a huge palm extended over, lifting An'an up before she could even realize it.

Tang Mo'er's eyes brightened with interest, she had found her pillar of strength. ”Mr Gu, you're here.”

Gu Mohan took a glance towards An'an, pursing his lips and he put up a stern front. ”An'an, are you done throwing a tantrum? Why do you drive yourself into a corner to the point you have to give up after hurting yourself all over?”

An'an evaded Gu Mohan's berating stare, tears started to well up in her eyes.

Tang Mo'er had noticed the unusual atmosphere and she promptly tugged on Gu Mohan's sleeve, pouting her cherry red lips.

She didn't want him to reprimand An'an.

Tang Mo'er's kittenish and coy ways had worked well, Gu Mohan was evidently loosening up. ”That's enough said, let's head home.”

A built figure appeared in his peripheral vision, it was Lu Yan coming down from the stairs.

Lu Yan had changed into a clean black shirt paired with trousers. He glanced at Gu Mohan before his eyes were riveted on An'an.

Gu Mohan narrowed his eyes, he brought An'an and Tang Mo'er away.

”Mr Gu, are we heading home now?”
