Shouldn't the plot at this point involve directly launching a mocking attack on her and then saying that she embarrassed them?
This is how the traditional plot should unfold.
Now……
An Ning took a moment to react before saying, "I came back to get something," after Su Lan released her.
The explanation is very simple.
Not a single extra word.
They didn't call out to their parents either.
Upon hearing her words, Su Lan's fingers twitched slightly at her side, but she ultimately simply said, "Can we finish our meal first and then talk about it?"
Her tone and posture were very humble, and An Ning was somewhat surprised by Su Lan's reaction. Her words just now sounded like she was begging her to stay for dinner.
An Ning only hesitated for a moment before replying to Su Lan, "Would you recommend that I bring a friend?"
She said she was going to treat Jiang Yu to lunch, but if I eat here, her plan will be ruined.
She didn't consider whether Su Lan or An Peisheng would agree; whether they did or not was within her expectations. She wouldn't be emotionally affected by such a simple matter.
"Yes, is this a friend you... have made in the last few years?"
Su Lan asked cautiously, her gaze fixed on what was behind An Ning.
There was no one there.
She didn't know where the person Anning was referring to was.
Seeing what Su Lan was thinking, An Ning explained, "She's parking the car and will be here soon."
But when she looked up and saw the table packed with people, Anning raised her eyelids and asked, "Are you sure my friend and I can squeeze in among so many people?"
She asked very sincerely; it was indeed a problem.
After all, with so many people having a meal together, the tables should have been booked long ago; she was the one who was superfluous.
"How can there not be enough room? You can sit down! You can."
Su Lan hurriedly gestured with her eyes for An Peisheng to pull over two chairs.
Seeing how troublesome it was, An Ning suddenly raised her hand, stopping An Peisheng from getting up. "Let's just forget about this... Is my room still available?"
Her question caught Su Lan off guard, and she didn't react for a moment. "How could it be troublesome? It'll be over soon, Xiao Ning..."
"Mom, what are you doing standing here?"
Su Lan's voice was interrupted by a low, husky male voice. An Ning looked in the direction of the voice and saw a peacock.
A true peacock.
Her hair was dyed in a very trendy rainbow color, and if her face were even slightly ugly, it would be a truly horrific car crash scene.
The man was wearing a boldly dyed floral shirt paired with well-tailored suit trousers.
The most eye-catching thing was the obsidian earring in his right ear.
It was very shiny; Anning noticed it at first glance.
Judging from how he addresses Su Lan... this must be her brother, her biological brother.
But she couldn't find this person in her memory.
What happened?
Did something go wrong with the original owner's memories? How come there are so many things he doesn't know?
Anze strode towards Anning, exuding an aura of extreme confidence.
Upon seeing Anning standing there, she immediately said, "My dear mother, who is this? So beautiful! Is this another blind date you've arranged for me? I've already told you, I don't want to get married right now. Even if you send a stunning beauty, you can't tame me..."
Although Anze said those words, his eyes lingered on Anning for quite some time.
To be precise, he was observing An Ning.
"Wait a minute, Mom, this person looks a bit like you... And why does the way he raises his eyebrows look a bit like mine? Is this what they call 'couples looking alike'?"
An Ning couldn't bear to listen any longer. A dangerous smile appeared on her lips. She stared directly at An Ze, and a short knife suddenly appeared on her slender fingertips, which she casually toyed with between her two fingers.
"What did you say?"
As soon as she finished speaking, An Ning suddenly raised the hand that was holding the dagger. She thought she would succeed easily, but she was wrong.
Her raised wrist was grabbed, and the man's slender fingertips rested on it, completely interrupting her attack and tightly restraining her.
While performing these actions, Anze's expression remained unchanged; he was still smiling, and his unrestrained and free-spirited nature persisted.
Ugh, I hate dealing with two-faced people the most.
An Ning forcefully pulled her wrist out of An Ze's hand, and the short knife disappeared in the blink of an eye. No one noticed how she did it.
But Anze caught the subtle movement.
The knife was hidden in his wrist.
This is probably not the first time they've done this; their movements are incredibly practiced.
It seemed to have been repeated hundreds or thousands of times.
Anze didn't ask Anning why she suddenly attacked him, but instead gave her a bright smile. "I'm not in a relationship right now, you can leave. I apologize to you on behalf of my mother."
His tone was very sincere, and there was not a trace of mockery in his eyes. It was clear that he really did not know An Ning.
This also explains why Anning no longer recognizes him.
I guess the two of them didn't know each other, so her brother didn't recognize her either.
This family is quite strange; the siblings don't even know each other. Could it be that she grew up in the countryside?
The original owner had very vague memories of her childhood, and An Ning really didn't know whether she grew up in the countryside or not.
But one thing is certain: she now wants to leave this place of trouble.
“Um… Xiaoze… this is your sister Anning.”
Once the two had finally calmed down, Su Lan was able to interject. Her words completely shattered An Ze's defenses, making his voice sound unnatural and instantly dissipating his inner confidence.
