Chapter 108 An Rourou Promax!
Wen Yao and Fu Yan stood behind An Ruoruo and saw the whole thing clearly.
An Ruoruo wore a white evening gown today, with a unique design at the waist featuring a dense fringe that swayed gracefully as she walked.
That bracelet fell out from the tassel.
The curly-haired woman was furious; her high heels pounded on the ground like drums, making her look like a warrior.
"An Rou Rou Promax, why did you steal A Wan's bracelet?!"
"puff!"
A burst of snickers rang out in the room. An Rou Rou Promax, what a damn apt image.
An Ruoruo's temples throbbed with anger. "Miss, my name is An Ruoruo."
The curly-haired woman frowned, incredulous. "You even imitate names? Is copying An Ruoruo some kind of fashion trend?"
Curly-haired woman: "Forget it, I have nothing to say to you. You might as well go to the police station and try to argue with them!"
An Ruoruo took a deep breath, trying to calm her anger. "I didn't get close to that lady tonight, so where would I have found the opportunity to commit the crime?"
Fu Yan also stood up to speak for An Ruoruo: "Yes, many people must have seen it, right? The bracelet fell out from the tassel."
"No one would leave something in such a conspicuous and unsafe place if they were stealing it."
A young man whose family runs a jewelry business picked up the bracelet and examined it closely. "The clasp has come loose due to aging; it shouldn't have been damaged intentionally."
The servant whom Fu Lizhi had sent to check the surveillance footage returned at this time, and whispered a few words to Fu Lizhi.
Fu Lizhi nodded and instructed the servants to project the captured surveillance footage onto the large screen.
In the video, after An Ruoruo finished playing the piano, she calmly stepped off the stage, passing by the girl who had lost her bracelet.
The footage then zooms in and slows down, allowing everyone to clearly see that the girl's bracelet clasp loosened and was thrown off the moment An Ruoruo walked by...
It landed right on An Ruoruo's tassel, and as she walked, it was gradually covered by the tassel.
The people in the hall looked at each other in bewilderment. What were the odds of such a coincidence happening?
An Ruoruo's lips twitched; this was definitely the bad luck she had borrowed taking effect!
Hopefully, this bad luck will run out; it would be impolite to continue having bad luck.
After the farce ended, Fu Yan and the others took An Ruoruo to the An family home.
It's strange, not only were the streetlights always red, but at times when there's never a traffic jam, they happened to run into a car accident ahead, and their car was the only one blocked behind them.
An eerie silence gradually fell over the car.
Wen Yao thought to herself, this Rolls-Royce seems to be cursed, it's like it's been possessed by the god of bad luck.
The two-hour drive took until midnight.
The group arrived at the An family manor. Fu Jin stepped forward and rang the doorbell. The electronic lock reflected the face of the An family's butler.
The butler opened the door expressionlessly, and the four of them stepped inside.
An Ruoruo breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally arrived at her home turf, and there shouldn't be any more unexpected changes.
She couldn't help but walk to the front, and lightly circled around on the open cobblestone path, taking it all in.
The night is beautiful tonight, with moonlight pouring down like water, making Anjia Manor exceptionally bright and clean.
An Ruoruo was like a moonlit fairy, her brows relaxed, her face smiling, and her voice soft:
"I feel like I've been here before. It feels so familiar. If I walk any further, is there a field of cornflowers?"
An Ruoruo walked briskly forward, leaving Wen Yao and the others behind. She put her hands behind her back and turned to look at Wen Yao and the others.
"I used to water the flowers with a spray gun. The cornflowers, wet with water, looked like jewels in the sunlight, ah!!!"
Just as An Ruoruo was getting into her role, several servants suddenly appeared in the cornflower garden ahead. They were holding water guns that An Ruoruo remembered and sprayed them with water.
An Ruoruo was the first to be drenched, getting soaked to the bone.
Wen Yao and the other two, who were left behind by her, escaped unharmed, with only a few drops of water on their calves and shoes.
The An family's butler appeared and disappeared unpredictably; he didn't notice the extremely disheveled An Ruoruo and remained calm.
"Excuse me, Young Master Fu."
"Madam instructed that once you arrive at the An family's residence, you will be sprayed with water immediately."
"To give you a taste of what it's like for a young lady to be wet and cold in the sea."
Fu Jinzhi's expression was strange. He pointed to An Ruoruo, who had been completely ignored by the butler:
“I didn’t experience it myself, but An Ruoruo did.”
The butler was stunned. He slowly looked at An Ruoruo, and after carefully examining her, his eyes welled up with tears.
"Miss! Is it really you?!"
An Ruoruo's makeup was ruined, but she still had to maintain a presentable appearance when answering the housekeeper's questions, which the housekeeper just wouldn't stop asking.
An Ruoruo had no choice but to lift her hair in front of the housekeeper, wringing out a splash of water. This action finally brought the housekeeper to his senses.
Butler An: "We must inform Madam of this good news as soon as possible. She is waiting for Young Master Fu in the living room."
"Miss, please go and change your clothes quickly, don't catch a cold."
An Ruoruo quickly stopped the housekeeper, smiling shyly, "Don't rush, I want to give Mom a surprise."
Butler An was taken aback. Miss had never called Madam "Mama" before, only "Mother".
But now joy overshadowed all other emotions, and he nodded repeatedly, "This is indeed a big surprise!"
So, the butler and Wen Yao stood outside the room, watching An Ruoruo go into the living room alone to surprise Madam An.
Unexpectedly, An Ruoruo was too wet, and she slipped and fell as soon as she stepped onto the stairs, breaking her smooth forehead and drawing a little blood.
Wen Yao's eyelids twitched slightly. Not to say it, but An Ruoruo was just too unlucky.
8848 had previously speculated that the smuggler might be on An Ruoruo, but is it really possible for someone to be so unlucky as to have a system attached to them?
Lost in thought, Fu Jinzhi gently tugged at Wen Yao's hand and whispered, "Something feels off. Is this really a surprise?"
Ah, my daughter who died many years ago has returned. How could I not be overjoyed?
Wait, what time is it now? What is An Ruoruo's appearance?
At midnight, soaking wet, the daughter who had died in the sea returned home...
Wen Yao took a deep breath, her fingers awkwardly gripping the air: "I hope Mrs. An is alright, Amen."
The Anjia Manor is decorated in a Chinese style. The spacious living room, with its somber tones, appears even more quiet at night, and the dim yellow night light does not add any warmth.
Mrs. An sat on the mahogany sofa facing the main entrance, her thoughts drifting away.
She admitted that she was taking her anger out on Fu Jinzhi, but if it was her only daughter, what else could she do to alleviate the pain of losing her daughter if she didn't hate Fu Jinzhi?
Mrs. An clenched her fists. She would always imagine what An Ruoruo looked like before she died. That international sea was close to the Arctic Circle. How cold and icy the seawater must be.
How much pain must her frail daughter be in?
If she leaves with Ruoruo, will she be free?
As she thought about it, she seemed to see An Ruoruo's figure in front of her, soaking wet and dripping with water, with a scratch on her forehead...
Mrs. An closed her eyes, unable to bear it any longer.
"Mom." A voice filled with longing rang in her ears.
Madam An opened her eyes, and An Ruoruo's "phantom" was already close in front of her.
