zhen were also absent. There was only one man left in the house, naturally his heart felt a little empty. 。"Zhao Yizhuo!" Suddenly, a familiar yet venomous voice echoed in his ears. 。How could it be...Recounting old times, Yang Ning's expression was as if she had truly seen them. An Tianxiang gazed at her drooping brows and the smile on her lips, a darkness that had shrouded his heart for years seemed to finally dissipate.

Xiaoyuan, that was the only name he remembered, his given name. An Tianxiang, this name, was formally changed after he arrived at the An family.

Ke An Tianxiang still couldn't believe the person in front of him, because her appearance was too deliberate and coincidental. Those distant memories had long since faded from his mind.

At present, he can only wait and see.

Then, he said: "Give me the photo. Although I'm not going to Africa anymore, I'll keep an eye on you."

Hearing An Tianxiang's conclusion, Yang Ning let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. His feet seemed to have been pulled back from the edge of the cliff, but he didn't know when he would step off again.

However, she had no choice. If she didn't restrain An Tianxiang, and allowed Yang Yue to ascend to power, then she would have absolutely no chance of winning in this lifetime. Therefore, she could only live in such fear and trepidation.

Handing the photo to An Tianxiang, Yang Ning withdrew her thoughts and smiled lightly, her expression calm: "I've never understood what you were talking about, but it's really great that we don't have to go to Africa."

An Tianxiang raised his eyebrows slightly, didn't say anything in response, his indifferent face was like a stagnant pool of water.

He watched the cityscape whiz by outside the car window, his emotions swirling like the scenery. If she really was the person he remembered, could she truly pull him out of the darkness that threatened to consume him

If she cannot do it, then her existence is meaningless.

"Mr. An, we've arrived at the restaurant."

After an unknown amount of time, a screech of brakes brought their journey to an end at the entrance of a restaurant. An Tianxiang opened the car door and gestured for Yang Ning to join him as they walked upstairs.

Whether it was her past life or this one, Yang Ning had never seen such a luxurious restaurant. She looked up and admired the exquisite interior decoration, couldn't help but sigh in her heart, being a celebrity in her previous life was all for nothing.

Following the waiter through a corridor, they arrived at a more secluded second floor. An Tianxiang and Yang Ning sat opposite each other, the atmosphere in the private room slightly stiff.

"I've already ordered food. If you want something else, just order it yourself, I'll pay." An Tianxiang crossed his legs, leaning back lazily with his elbow resting on his forehead, his half-closed eyes concealing the playful scrutiny in his amber gaze. Meow Meow said

Yang Ning didn't dare to move any further. She was already feeling guilty. Looking at the menu pushed in front of her, she smiled and shook her head. "Thank you, but I follow my host's lead. I don't need it."

Upon hearing this, An Tianxiang narrowed his eyes slightly. He raised an eyebrow and reviewed Yang Ning's information in his mind before speaking coldly: "A child from the countryside, yet he shows no interest in these top-tier city cuisines"

This seemingly ordinary question is actually a hand already stretched out behind Yang Ning's back. As long as her answer isn't good enough, she could be pushed into the abyss at any moment.

Yang Ning fell silent for a moment, his expression unchanged: "I'm not entirely uninterested, it's just that when I was with Xiaoyuan before, he always felt I was rough and would often tell me about the principles their dean taught them. Although I don't have much education, I still know proper etiquette."

She spun a web of lies, her face remaining as impassive as ever. Yang Ning sat up straight and replied calmly, "Besides, even ordinary people from the city wouldn't have tasted these delicacies. I know you are a big boss, but please don't speak to me with such condescension."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hint of curiosity replaced the doubt in An Tianxiang's eyes. He couldn't help but smile, a smile that he himself wasn't aware of: "Are you accusing me"

"I..." Yang Ning was at a loss for words, unable to fathom his thoughts. The excited tone from before abruptly dropped, and she muttered to herself, "I just think you're wrong."

The faint voice was still quite piercing in the quiet, cramped booth. An Tianxiang twitched the corner of his lips, but he wasn't annoyed. The icy coldness in his eyes seemed to have encountered a spring breeze, finally softening a little.

The Cold-Hearted Wife of Gu Shao Is Hard to Escapee's heart is still on Gu Wang. She's just waiting for the right time to pursue her big brother. 。Well, Zhou Yang has a great deal of faith in his intuition. 。But Zhao Yizhuo was oblivious to this. 。"...
