Chapter 444 Brother is Going on a Blind Date (3)
She clearly said nothing sarcastic or demeaning about An Ran.But just such a gaze, such a tone, can sometimes be more hurtful than straightforward words.
An Ran quickly turned off the faucet, "I—we’re having a small gathering at our house tonight."
Han Ningmou gracefully finished washing her hands, stood up straight, pulled out a tissue and elegantly wiped her hands, "The location is at the Water Time Manor, am I right?"
An Ran was a bit surprised.
How did Miss Han know?
"No need to be so surprised." Han Ningmou smiled slightly, her gaze carrying a kind of superior arrogance, glancing at An Ran, "Because today’s main characters are me and your brother."
"Huh? You and my brother..."
Han Ningmou touched her hair, "Tonight, on the surface, it’s a gathering of parents, but in reality, it’s a matchmaking event between me and Chi Cheng."
An Ran was completely stunned now.
No wonder Uncle Chi was hesitating to speak this morning.
So that’s it!
Does brother know about this?
He must know.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked me like that in the car just now!
For some reason, a very complicated and strange emotion surged in her heart, An Ran’s little hand clenched slightly.
Han Ningmou threw the tissue into the trash can, flipped her hair confidently, "Well then, An, see you tonight."
After saying this, she stepped out in her red high heels intending to leave.
She walked a couple of steps before stopping again, turned her body to look over, sizing up An Ran, covered her lips with her fingers and laughed, "An, I hope tonight you won’t embarrass the Chi family."
Saying this, she then left.
What the heck.
An Ran looked at herself in the mirror.
How did I embarrass anyone?
-
Back in the store, Chi Cheng had already picked out a few dresses for An Ran, "These are all nice, go try them on."
Chi Cheng clearly knows tonight is his matchmaking event, yet he can still be so indifferent, so nonchalant?
This is infuriating.
An Ran suddenly lost interest, "Let’s just buy one and leave."
But Chi Cheng grabbed her arm, speaking good-naturedly, "Go try them on."
"It’s just a piece of clothing after all, I’m not the main character today anyway, just buy one to appease mom and Uncle Chi, why are you so serious?"
Chi Cheng placed his hands on An Ran’s shoulders, looking at her with a half-smile, "You’re my sister, how are you not a main character?"
But An Ran felt even more stifled.
Normally, Chi Cheng never admits that I’m his sister.
Yet today he keeps emphasizing the word "sister."
Yeah, sister.
Just a sister!
An Ran bit her lower lip, taking those few dresses.
...Half an hour later.
There were frequent exclamations in the store.
"Miss An Ran, you are truly... stunning!"
"Indeed, people who don’t wear makeup regularly, even with just a little touch, look absolutely amazing!"
An Ran looked at herself in the mirror.
She took off her glasses, replaced them with contact lenses, and her whole face seemed to have become more attractive.
Shed off the usual T-shirt and jeans she wore, now she was dressed in a pink and white plain brocade cheongsam, her graceful figure fully outlined.
All her hair was pulled up, secured with a traditional hairpin, her light makeup was just right.
Coupled with the natural purity that An Ran already possessed.
Truly, beautiful but not enchanting.
She looked completely different from just now!
