147 Taking the Initiative to Take a Risk 1 (2/2)

”Not at all.”

”Did you guys forget that I'm Jin Qingyan's wife? I've been on television, and our plan will be foiled should he recognize me. So, I'll have to disguise myself this time, as well as for any other special cases in the future. Otherwise, it'll be tough for us to get things going,” An Xiaoning said with a smile.

”You're right.”

After discussing in detail the plan they were about to execute, they proceeded to make their way towards their destination.

An Xiaoning got down from the car and began walking leisurely along the sidewalk, her hands in her pocket.

Holding her phone in her hand, she arrived at People's Square, the location where they had agreed to meet at.

She then sat down somewhere and waited for the man to arrive.

However, he had yet to show up even after hours had passed.

The sky began to turn dark gradually.

Cold air filled the entire plaza.

Every now and then, An Xiaoning would stand up to stretch her limbs to prevent them from going numb. Gradually, the crowd became smaller and smaller.

Finally, she decided to send him a message to inform her that she would be leaving, thinking that he was not going to show up.

Just as she'd sent the message, she received another one from him, informing her that he would be arriving in no time.

An Xiaoning then sent another message to Ma Jianguo and instructed him to keep waiting.

Two minutes later, a rather suave-looking man showed up before her. A joyous smile appeared on his face as he looked her up and down, seemingly pleased with her appearance.

”I'm sorry for turning up late.”

”It's okay,” An Xiaoning said with a smile.

”Have you eaten?”

”Yes, I have,” An Xiaoning answered in a delicate voice, a smile on her face. Her sweet and cutesy demeanor was sure to make any man fall head over heels in love with her.

”Let's take a walk then?”

”Sure,” An Xiaoning agreed with a nod.

”How old are you?” she asked.

”I thought the first thing you'd ask for would be my name, but turns out you wanted to know my age,” he said, chuckling.

”You don't look that much older than I am,” said An Xiaoning, covering her mouth as she giggled.

”I'm 21.”

”Oh, you're three years older than I am,” An Xiaoning remarked with composure, as if she was really 18 years old.

”My name is Dong Hai, what's yours?”

”Hmm… my name is… my name is Chi Rui'er,” answered the quick-witted An Xiaoning as an idea struck her mind.

”What a nice name.”

An Xiaoning began to realize that he was walking towards the exit of the plaza. Though she was unsure where he was about to bring her, she had a feeling it was going to be somewhere he felt was safe.
