C105 (1/2)

A girl wearing a long white dress was sitting quietly to one side. Her face was pale without any makeup. Compared to the other girls at the wine table, she was a special existence.

An Ning was able to tell with a single glance that the girl was herself. A trace of unease flashed across her calm face.

After about a minute, the girls had a round of conversations. Only then did An Ning slowly get up from the video and walk to the side of a middle-aged fat man.

He was the host of this banquet, as well as the partner that An Ning had come to meet with on that day to discuss business.

Although the two of them had only briefly talked about their experiences in business, because the angle of the video was extremely tricky, it made it seem as though the two of them were doing some shady business.

An Ning pressed her lips together tightly. Her clear eyes remained emotionless. She moved her finger and withdrew from the upper right corner. She turned off the phone and finished everything in one go.

As expected, the thread with the video on it quickly became the center of attention as waves after waves of scorn spread through his body like deadly poisons until it climbed up his heart before delivering the final blow.

The room was completely silent. Right now, this was the only place she could hide. There was no sign of attack or criticism from the netizens.

Thinking back to Xu Qing's warning last night, An Ning decisively picked up her phone and dialed Xu Wang's number, hoping that he would be able to find out who the person who posted it was.

Although Xu Wang didn't have a strong background like Jiang Shao Han to support him, the fact that the studio could gradually grow bigger was not something to be underestimated.

A melodious ringtone rang. Xu Wang did not pick up the phone. An Ning simply stood up and went to the studio to look for him.

Dressed in a simple and unadorned outfit that couldn't be recognized even if thrown into the crowd, An Ning happily patted the hat that had accumulated on her head for a long time and secretly slipped away from the back door of the rented house.

As usual, An Ning walked into the studio. However, with every step she took, she could feel the gazes of disdain from the others in the studio.

It was as if she had walked for a century. Finally, she stopped in front of the door to Xu Wang's office.

She raised her hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response. An Ning turned the handle and found that the door was locked.

He sighed in his heart. It seemed that Xu Wang had something he needed to do.

Helpless, An Ning could only return home.

After passing by the crossroads on their way home, Jiang Shao Han finally made a call during these few chaotic days.

”An Ning, don't worry. I will take care of everything and don't mind listening to the crazy rumors outside!”

Jiang Shao Han stuffed all his words into her mouth. These days, he was busy trying to uncover the mastermind behind all of this, but he forgot that there was still a woman who might be scared inside her house, and might blame him for his inaction.

”If you feel uncomfortable, you can talk to me. Don't take it on yourself.”

Ann stared at the fading red light and stopped.

When she was frowning, she had always hoped that Jiang Shao Han would appear in time. She didn't need to be concerned about him, it was enough as long as he stayed by her side.

It was only then that An Ning realized what he meant to her. Xu Qing had said that it was useless for her to keep thinking about someone. If she liked someone, she would have to say it, or show it.

After a long while, she lowered her head and smiled.

Even her eyebrows raised up as she joked, ”Are you worried that I won't get over it?”

”At a time like this, I only want you to rely on me in your heart. I will give you everything you want, and the matter today will be resolved very quickly.”
