Chapter 297 - 297: You’re Mine Tonight (6)
Zuo Hancheng frowned.” Shouldn’t the question be which one of you or my mother should I save first?” What kind of question is that?”
“I’m just modifying it. Asking for the exact same thing is called plagiarism.”Anhao held her chin and looked at him seriously. Her eyes were filled with provocation. “What, you can’t answer?”
Zuo Hancheng chuckled.” Gu Anhao, you’re throwing a bomb in front of me before I can answer. Regardless of whether I answer or not, I’ll be the first one to die.”‘
Tsk, as expected of Zuo Hancheng. He was exposed so easily.
Anhao pouted.” Alright, I admit that I’m being childish when I ask this question. But Zuo Hancheng, I really want to ask you something.”
“About what?” Zuo Hancheng glanced at her.”
“About you and me.” Anhao cupped her chin and looked at him with a sincere smile.’”‘l believe everything you’ve said to me. Zuo Hancheng, you’re worthy of my trust, right?”
Zuo Hancheng’s elegant eyebrows moved slightly, and the smile in his eyes was as clear as a spring.”Of course.”
” As the saying goes, no matter when or what, as long as you don’t tell me anything, no matter what others say, I can’t believe it, right?”
“Yes.” He raised his eyebrows slightly when he answered. It was obvious that he felt that her mind had matured more than one level when she said these words. He even seemed to have some praise.
Anhao wasn’t here to be praised. She was sincerely trying to get to know someone she wanted to know thoroughly.
“Then…one last question.” Anhao blinked and said,”The two of us now…” Can you even talk about the word love?”
When Zuo Hancheng heard her words, he looked at her seriously and said, “”What do you think?”
“If I knew, why would I ask you?”Anhao glared at him.
Zuo Hancheng’s lips curled slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He suddenly called the waiter over and ordered a roasted pork heart that very few people would order here.
“You’re actually eating roasted pig’s heart?” Anhao asked in surprise. You have such a strong taste!”
“This is for you.”
“Me? When did I say I wanted to eat roasted pig’s heart?”
“I’ll make up for what I lack.”
Zuo Hancheng picked up the magazine by the dining table and flipped through it after he said that. He was not in the mood to chat with her anymore. Anhao swallowed the last piece of steak in her mouth with difficulty.
Roasted pig’s heart?
What was missing?
F * ck!
Was he calling her a pig or was he calling her heartless?
After the meal, she returned to the company. Zuo Hancheng indeed had two urgent routine meetings that needed to be held. However, these two meetings did not last that long. Anhao only watched two and a half episodes of the drama in the resting room before it ended.
During this period, Chengxin did not appear to disturb her again, and she did not ask where Chengxin had gone. It was probably Uncle Chen who had taken her away first, or they had gone somewhere else to study. Anyway, Anhao did not care about Chengxin’s whereabouts.
After all, a brainless woman like Chengxin would probably have no feelings for Zuo Hancheng even if all the women in the world were dead. It was not that Chengxin did not take Anhao seriously at all, but Anhao had never taken a character like Chengxin seriously.
A character that was too stupid could not even be considered an opponent. At most, he was just a passerby to relieve his boredom.
Another episode of the TV series ended. Anhao was bored as she switched channels. She looked at the foreign language channels on TV and felt a little depressed.
She had just received a call from Zuo Hancheng. He said that the meeting had ended, but he had to discuss some matters with his subordinates in the office. He would be back in about fifteen minutes.
After searching for a long time, she finally found two Chinese channels. However, one of the TV series that she could barely watch had already finished filming. The other channel was broadcasting business news from New York. It was a news channel that switched between Chinese and English.
After Anhao stopped at this one, she realized that there was nothing else to watch. She could only put the remote control aside and watch the news while eating the fruits on the fruit plate on the coffee table.
Suddenly, two faces flashed across the television news. She didn’t get a clear look, but when the two faces flashed past, Anhao’s mind suddenly buzzed.
Just now…
She seemed to have seen her mother.
Although that face looked a little old, and she didn’t know how many years older than her mother, it really did look like her. However, it flashed past her and she didn’t hear what was being said on the television.
Anhao fixed her eyes on the TV screen again. In the end, she saw a few words on the translated Chinese subtitles in the corner.
The Chinese giant, the leader of one of the world’s top companies, An Group, went to XXX with his wife to cut the ribbon.
The An family?
The An Corporation in New York? Could it be the An family who also planted Ice Blue?
All kinds of strange ideas flashed through Anhao’s mind. More importantly, she remembered the memories of her childhood. The dried flowers in the book, and the posture of her mother carefully picking up the dried flowers and putting them back in the book.
Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but the face that flashed past just now made Anhao inexplicably panic.
She felt as if something was rising and falling in her heart, but she could not find the source. It was a feeling of loss and helplessness.
Was it a coincidence?
It was just a coincidence…
She had never heard her mother mention anything about overseas. Her mother was just a simple university student who had graduated in China. She was just a woman who had once gone astray and accidentally had a relationship with Gu Tianming.
However, Gu Tianming’s call that day made Anhao ponder the truth behind those words. She didn’t know if these recent events were really related to the things she suspected, but all the traces were blurry. She couldn’t connect them at all and could only think of some random possibilities.
In the end, he could only give up on those messy thoughts.
The news on the television had already changed to another report. There was no longer the image of the person in charge of the An Corporation cutting the ribbon with his wife. Anhao, on the other hand, was staring at the television for a long time.
When Zuo Hancheng rushed to the resting area, Anhao was still glued to the television. The things that Gu Tianming had told her on the television kept ringing in her ears.
Was her mother hiding something from her?
What was Gu Tianming’s motive for meeting her?
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly felt a familiar smell approaching. She snapped back to her senses and looked up to see Zuo Hancheng walking in. She did not know when he had arrived at the sofa and how long he had been looking at her.
Anhao blinked and looked down at the time.””Are you done?”
“You’ve been absent-minded at least three times more than before. It seems that you have a lot on your mind. Are you sure you don’t want to tell me?”Zuo Hancheng sat beside her and put his arm around her shoulders. His deep black eyes reflected her curled up on the sofa..
