Xu Wang had already helped him too much. An Ning didn't want to bother with him anymore. Since her mother was in Country H, there was nothing she could do about the matters in Lin City. Jiang Jia Han's attitude today made it hard for An Ning to figure out whether or not he wanted to help her. An Ning thought over and over again, and there was only one name left in her heart, Gu Ruoyun.

She was in the entertainment circle, and with her current position, she definitely had a lot of connections. An Ning took out her phone, wanting to ask Gu Ruoyun if she could help her and find out where her father was.

However, to An Ning's surprise, she continued to make several calls. However, the female mechanical voice never changed. She dejectedly put down her hand and looked out of the window at the traffic. Only after a long while did she extinguish the light coming from her phone.

It had been four days since Father An had disappeared, but there was still no news of him at all. Even Bai Qingyan and her daughter, who had been acting as if nothing had happened to him, became a little anxious. However, what they cared about was not the safety of Father An, but rather the fact that the book on the division of property had not been changed.

An Ning spread out a design draft on the tea table on the balcony, but because she was frustrated, she couldn't write down any of her plans. There was no news from her father, and there was no phone call from Jiang Xianxue, not even from Gu Ruoyun.

An Ning let out a long sigh and put down her brush. Suddenly, the phone beside her vibrated. She quickly picked it up.

”Chilling?!”

In contrast to An Ning's excitement, Jiang Jia's cold voice was very calm, and even listening to her carefully, there was a sense of exhaustion.

”It's me. I'm in the An clan now. Uncle is back.”

An Ning's eyes widened in pleasant surprise. After hanging up the phone, she quickly changed her clothes and took a taxi back home.

When she entered, she saw her father sitting safely on the sofa. Bai Qingyan and Anfey were sitting on either side of her with fake care and concern on their faces. However, she didn't know if it was because her father was tired or because he had seen through their true appearances, but he was leaning against the backrest with his eyes slightly closed.

”Father, what happened? Why did you come back so late?”

An Ning quickly walked over. When she heard her footsteps, her father opened his eyes.

However, he didn't immediately reply to An Ning. She looked towards the window and found that Jiang Xian Han was standing alone in front of the French windows. The black suit that he always meticulously dressed in showed some disarray, and when they looked into each other's eyes, the coldness in Jiang Xian's gaze softened slightly.

”I ran into some things in the past few days. I went to a friend's place for a few days, so I forgot to tell you. I'm not coming back, so don't worry.”

Father An's perfunctory lie did not convince An Ning. Before An Ning could open her mouth to speak, Bai Qingyan, mother and daughter, who were sitting on either side of her, quickly answered.

”Go to a friend's home and don't say anything. I'm worried to death at home.”

”That's right, dad, you're not allowed to be like this next time. Look, I'm already thin and hungry because I'm worried that you won't be able to eat anymore!”

Father An indifferently glanced at the two of them without saying anything.

An Ning knew that sher father wouldn't be able to get the truth out of her, and just now, he had obviously seen the cold look in Jiang Jia Han's eyes, so she had no choice but to walk towards him.
