”Father An is in my hands.”
Looking at the short line of words on the phone, a black storm was brewing in Jiang Xian Han's cold black eyes. It was not only because of his father, but more importantly because the person who sent this message was a string of code that Jiang Xian Han was once familiar with but never knew the truth about.
His sharp, sword-like eyebrows were rubbed together, and a deep mark was left on his forehead. Sensing An Ning's approach, Jiang Xian quickly put out the phone and held it behind her.
”What's wrong?”
An Ning couldn't help but open her mouth, and the expression on Jiang Xiushan's cold face was a gloominess that An Ning had never seen before. Although the look in his eyes softened a lot when she turned to look at her, the coldness hidden deep within his eyes still caused An Ning to shiver.
”It's fine. I just received a text, saying that there's something at work.”
Jiang Jia curled her lips unnaturally. Even though she knew that the phone had been turned off and she couldn't see the contents of it, her fingers still tightened imperceptibly when An Ning turned her gaze towards her phone.
Jiang Jia Han couldn't imagine what An Ning's reaction would be when she found out about this news, and the person who sent the text message was obviously here for him. Although she didn't have clear sexual evidence, Jiang Jia Han's heart was certain that he was the real mastermind behind the previous scheme against him.
An Ning knitted her eyebrows slightly. She hesitantly turned her head to look at Bai Qingyan and her daughter. Both of them were still looking at An Ning arrogantly. An Fu even rolled her eyes in disdain at her. Now that her father's whereabouts were unknown, An Ning couldn't be at ease to leave. However, Jiang Jia Han also seemed very anxious, and An Ning knew that she couldn't interfere with Jiang Jia Han's affairs, after all, these matters had nothing to do with her.
”Are you in a hurry?”
This matter couldn't be told to An Ning, but she shed to go save her father. Although she knew that she would be disappointed if she were to leave An Ning now, he had no choice but to do so.
”Then you go first, I'll wait here for a while. What if father comes back?”
An Ning gently smiled, but didn't blame him for her coldness.
Right before Jiang Xian left, he suddenly turned around and looked at Bai Qingyan and her daughter with a dark look.
”An Ning is here. If you dare to bully her, the consequences won't be something you can bear.”
The last time they were in the prison, they still vividly remembered Jiang Jia's cold appearance. They had already been terrified of him, but now after hearing his words, Bai Qingyan nodded her head in panic, expressing her understanding.
Jiang Jia didn't say anything else, turned around and left the An clan. An Ning was too lazy to waste words with Bai Qingyan and her mother. She went upstairs to her own room. Because of Jiang Jian's repeated warnings, Bai Qingyan and the others didn't dare to obstruct her and directly treated An Ning as a transparent person.
She waited until dusk, but her father still hadn't come back. An Ning couldn't sit still any longer. She had no choice but to wait, so she had to do something.
When An Ning went downstairs, Bai Qingyan was wiping her tears as she watched the bloody Korean drama. She didn't know where An Fu had gone to, but when she heard An Ning's movements, Bai Qingyan didn't even turn her head around. An Ning didn't pay any attention to her.
Even after she got on the car, An Ning was still uneasy. Multicolored neon light flashed through the window, shining a clear and cold light into the depths of An Ning's black eyes. Her curly eyelashes gently trembled, revealing the emotions in her heart.
