As more and more gazes fell upon the two men, Jiang Jian's expression darkened and he picked up Ji Mingzhen. Some people noticed that not far away, An Ning had a playful look on her face. They wanted to see if her expression was miserable as she interrogated her on the spot, or if she just ignored everything that was happening.
Jiang Jia also looked at An Ning with a cold expression. His thin lips were moving slightly, as if he was about to say something.
An Ning's sight was the exact same as Ji Ming's. She put her arm around Jiang Xiushan's cold neck. The smile on her face told An Ning that she had to get what she wanted.
An Ning looked away. She felt a dull pain in her heart that was hard to ignore. Her eyes were moist and her expression was slightly astringent.
Seeing An Ning like this, it was unknown why Jiang Xianzi's heart felt like it was being gripped by something. He subconsciously walked towards An Ning, and Ji Mingzhen's hands tightened around her waist as she stopped walking.
With a bitter tone, An Ning said to Jiang Jia Han, ”Jiang Jia Han, to you, what am I?”
Then, he suddenly stood up and walked out of the Jiang manor.
Jiang Jia was frozen on the spot, An Ning's bitter question ringing in his ears. He had never thought about what the meaning of this woman was to him.
Just as he was about to continue pondering, Ji Mingzhen's pained cry interrupted his thoughts.
”I'm cold, my feet hurt …”
Jiang Jia Han quickly helped her into a small room outside the living room, then called the doctor to come over.
Ji Mingzhen tenderly looked at the man who stood diagonally in front of her after the call. Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Jia said to her in a cold and gloomy tone, ”Mingzhen, three years is enough time to change a lot. We're not going back in time... I don't want you to misunderstand my care for you. ”
After saying that, Jiang Jun didn't look at Ji Mingzhen's expression and didn't go out either. He sat on the sofa on the other side, silent.
Ji Mingzhen's pretty face was tainted with a layer of paleness. She lowered her gaze, which was filled with seriousness, as her heart raced.
After exiting the Jiang residence, An Ning's tears finally went out of control in that instant. She didn't barge into the mansion, but rather took a taxi and left. Instead, she stood outside the mansion's main entrance.
The wind blew and the tears slowly turned into tears. After a long time, when the cold didn't catch up, An Ning touched her slightly cold heart, wiped off the tears, and got into a car to let the driver drive slowly through. Finally, she arrived at a square near where An Ning used to live.
It was 5: 20 PM in the afternoon. The sunlight was not as dazzling. Many old people and children would come here. To An Ning, this was the purest and most flawless spot in her heart when she was down.
After a long while, An Ning finally returned to her villa. After crying for a long time, her eyelids felt sour and heavy. She closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
When An Ning woke up, the pillow towel was wet. In the quiet room, her cell phone rang abruptly as she looked at it with empty eyes.
After Jiang Xianxin left the Jiang Mansion, Lu Dining called to remind him of the shareholders' meeting tonight. The moment the meeting started, he suddenly dialed An Ning's number.
”You … ”He went back?”
”Why aren't you talking?”
”Jiang Jia,” An Ning's voice was hoarse. Suddenly, his heart was thrown into disarray. An Ning's heart was broken as she asked him, ”Without love, would you be happy?”
