Chapter 833: Bloodline Affinity (1)
“Mom, Grandpa has never liked me. He gets angry every time he sees me. Isn’t he as angry as before today? You’ve already accompanied me to the airport, but you still came back halfway. My friends are all dissatisfied with me because I’ve stood them up several times.”He walked beside An Ping in peace, his face full of grievance as he walked home.
An Ping did not say anything. She only handed the things in her hands to the servant and walked back.
Anxin quickly followed behind her. She felt that ever since her mother went to Los Angeles, she seemed to have a lot on her mind. There were many times when she didn’t respond to her when she talked to her.
Anxin looked at Anping’s back view with a delicate and sensitive mood. She could only jog to catch up with her and raise her hand to intimately hold her hand.” Mom, actually, I’m just complaining. You can’t be angry with me. There are only a few people in our family. Grandpa and Grandma are very close to me. You’ve doted on me the most all these years. If you’re angry with me, then there’s probably no place for me in the An family…”
An Ping suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her daughter beside her. Seeing that her face was somewhat similar to the other person in her heart, she hid the sadness in her eyes and curled her lips slightly. She held her hand and said,”Don’t worry, Mom is just not feeling well. Don’t think too much about it.”
Only then did Anxin smile. She also handed the Chanel limited edition bag in her hand to the servant who walked over. She wrapped her arms around An Ping’s and leaned her head on her shoulder affectionately as she walked back to the An family’s main residence with her.
Ever since she heard from Old Master An that An Ping and the others had suddenly changed their minds and would come back tonight, Mrs. An had been sitting quietly beside Anhao. The deep thoughts in her eyes made Anhao occasionally glance in the direction of the old madam.
“It seems that tonight is destined to be even more lively.”Zuo Hancheng smiled faintly. His eyes were dark and calm, making him look even colder.
Anhao glanced sideways at them. To be honest, she was not ready to meet them so early.
However, when Anhao’s gaze swept in Zuo Hancheng’s direction, he turned to look at her. His eyes were indifferent, but at the same time, he held her hand that was clenched into a fist and placed on her thigh. Although he looked calm and unmoving, Anhao knew that he was encouraging her.
Since they had already come this far, and the heavens had arranged for them to meet as soon as possible, Anhao naturally wouldn’t back down.
“Originally, because Hancheng and Anhao were here, the atmosphere of the banquet was very good. However, those two unfilial things suddenly came back early. Heh, I just hope that there won’t be any drama!”Grandpa An’s face turned ugly.” If you want to go to Paris, you can go to Paris. If you want to come back, you can come back. Who do you think the Andersons are?” A hotel? She would stay for a few days and then leave. After she left, she did not want to come back.”
“Stop talking. The young couple from Han City are here. Do you want to tell others about your family’s dirty laundry?”The old lady suddenly pinched him under the table.
Grandpa An was no longer giving in. He glanced in Anhao’s direction with an unpleasant expression and whispered to the old lady,””I think Anhao is more like the granddaughter of the An family. She’s much more sensible than Anxin.”
Upon hearing this, Anhao glanced at Old Master An. Zuo Hancheng’s eyes were calm as his thin lips curled up slightly. His handsome face was cold and had a faint smile on it.
The old madam didn’t turn back to look at Anhao, but when she heard footsteps coming from outside the door, she suddenly stood up and stood between Anhao and the front door, making it impossible for Anhao to see the person who walked in clearly. The person at the front door also didn’t see Anhao immediately after entering.
“Dad, we’re back.” An Ping’s voice was light and flat.
“Hello, Grandpa ~ Hello, Grandma ~ Why are you only having dinner at this time today? Grandma isn’t at the ancestral hall today?” Anxin’s sweet voice sounded at the same time.
However, their voices paused when they realized that there were other people at the table. An Ping’s gaze fell on the only tall and cold figure that could be seen.
As soon as she met Zuo Hancheng’s cold gaze, An Ping stopped in her tracks and instinctively looked at the figure that was blocked by the old madam.
Anxin’s eyes were also filled with surprise when she saw Zuo Hancheng, followed by a look of ecstasy. She tried her best not to show too much excitement, but her face suddenly turned red. The hand that had been holding An Ping’s arm could not help but gradually tighten, but there was still some nervousness and excitement in her eyes as she looked at the man who was absolutely charming in her eyes.
“Why are you here too?” As Anxin asked, she suddenly whispered to An Ping,””Mom, he’s the man I’ve been telling you about a few days ago. He’s the man I met in the hospital. I thought I’d never see him again in my life. I didn’t expect him to come to our house!”
Although Anxin’s voice was soft, there weren’t many people in the restaurant to begin with. Moreover, no one spoke, so Anxin’s voice attracted everyone’s attention.
Grandpa An and Mrs. An immediately looked at An Xin unhappily. However, An Xin’s attention was completely focused on the man who had a cold and deep smile on his face.
When An Ping heard Anxin say that Zuo Hancheng was the man she had been talking about a few days ago, she frowned slightly and looked in Zuo Hancheng’s direction.
“This is outrageous!” Suddenly, the dining table was slammed heavily. The old man’s angry voice instantly diverted everyone’s attention.
Only then did Anxin snap back to her senses. She turned to look at the dissatisfaction in Old Master An’s eyes and shrunk her neck. She carefully stood behind Anping and whispered,”Grandpa…”
“You still know how to call me grandpa? Ever since this little adopted daughter entered the An family, she had gone from being delicate and sensitive in the first two years to needing someone to coax and dote on her. Now, she had been filled with material things to the point where she rode around in a limited-edition new car. She did not even go home to watch the runway show in Paris. Do you still have eyes for me, your grandfather? And this Andersons?”
An Xin didn’t expect the old master to say this about her in front of outsiders. She immediately felt embarrassed, but she didn’t dare to say anything and raised her hand to gently tug at An Ping’s sleeve.
