Chapter 1154 - 1160: Candlelit Dinner (4)
Unexpectedly, as soon as it was poured, An Ran picked it up directly, tilted her small face and drank it down in one gulp.The wine glass was placed back on the table, but the wine was gone.
Jiang Yinuo handed her the steak he had already cut, "It’s not good for your stomach like this. Eat some steak before drinking."
Then, he placed An Ran’s untouched steak in front of himself.
After a glass of red wine, An Ran’s mind felt a bit heated, she shook her head, "It’s okay, anyway, no one cares about me now."
Mom... is hospitalized, still not waking up.
Brother... doesn’t want her anymore and moved out of the Chi Mansion.
"Who said no one cares? Many people care about you, you just don’t know."
"No one." An Ran mumbled, "The person I care about no longer cares about me."
She was very different today.
Jiang Yinuo put down his knife and fork, his arm resting on the table as he looked at her, "Does An Ran have something on her mind?"
"Yes, so many things on my mind."
"Can you tell me? I’m happy to be a listener."
An Ran shook her head, "If it’s something I can easily talk about, it’s not really a concern."
"I see..." Jiang Yinuo didn’t force her, and poured her another glass of wine, "Then drink, I’ve got you if you drink too much."
"Sorry, Mr. Jiang." An Ran looked up at Jiang Yinuo, "I originally invited you to dinner to thank you, but my negative emotions have ruined the atmosphere."
"It’s okay." Jiang Yinuo was gentle and patient throughout.
Such a person inexplicably makes others feel very grounded.
An Ran picked up the wine glass and drank half a glass of red wine again.
Then she realized that the atmosphere was somewhat off.
No, no matter what, this meal was to thank Mr. Jiang. She should make the atmosphere lively.
Putting down the wine glass, An Ran put on a smile and was about to speak.
But the next second, through the transparent window, she saw a man dressed elegantly in a suit, dignified and graceful—
An Ran’s smile froze on her face.
Brother...
It’s her brother.
The man’s figure was tall and straight, the most striking one among the crowd.
The button on his suit jacket was undone, and he walked out of a nearby restaurant with several business investors.
Seemed to have just finished a social event.
At this moment, he was steadily walking this way.
The next moment, his gaze passed through the transparent glass and collided with An Ran’s eyes.
An Ran felt her heart tremble.
Even though she had only not seen him for a day, it felt like a long, long time.
Suddenly she remembered that Jiang Yinuo was still sitting across from her.
An Ran clumsily averted her gaze, looked down at the steak, her heart racing uncontrollably.
She avoided eye contact, but Chi Cheng’s gaze remained fixed on her.
Then slightly shifting, he glanced at the red wine glass in front of the young girl, which still had some remaining wine at the bottom.
Candlelit dinner, sitting across from her, was Jiang Yinuo.
Chi Cheng’s steps, which had been steadily moving forward, paused for just a moment.
An Ran stared at the beef in front of her, but her peripheral vision uncontrollably scanned towards her brother’s direction.
He still maintained an indifferent demeanor, his stride unbroken even after seeing her dining with another man.
Instead, he steadily walked past in front of her.
Without turning back.
