Chapter 294: Never Seen Such A Thick-Skinned Person! (4)
“I think you must be afraid to acknowledge my status. Are you using that form of address to reinforce some fantasy of yours?”
The exchange of sarcastic remarks between them was getting more and more heated as tension filled the air. Everyone else around them became nervous and slightly daunted.
Mo Xiyan lowered her head and stopped answering, making Luo Anning seem like the mean person for making things difficult for her.
Luo Anning was a little annoyed and she turned to look at Rong Yan. “Shall we go home now?”
“Alright, you call the shots.” Rong Yan held onto her hand and left.
When they walked past Mo Xiyan, she quivered a little but Luo Anning ignored her and strode away with Rong Yan.
Rong Yan stopped after taking a few steps.
Mo Xiyan grabbed his arm and asked with a pleading gaze, “Yan, can we have a meal together? I don’t know anyone in S City, I feel really lonely… ”
Keeping a straight face, Rong Yan stared at the hand that was grabbing him and pursed his lips while his eyes turned gloomy.
Seeing that he did not push her away, Mo Xiyan smiled and gazed at him longingly, “Yan, we may have broken up but we’re still friends, aren’t we? It shouldn’t be an issue for us to eat together, right? Miss Luo, what do you think?”
She miraculously cast the question back at Luo Anning.
If Luo Anning were to turn her down in public, she would seem like the narrow minded one.
If she were to give in, she would be giving Mo Xiyan what she wanted.
Regardless of the result, it would be advantageous to Mo Xiyan.
Everyone stared at Mo Xiyan grabbing Rong Yan’s hand, feeling dumbfounded because they all knew that Rong Yan was a clean freak and would never let women get near him…
But why did he allow this woman to do so?
Luo Anning tucked her hair behind her ear and stared at Mo Xiyan, “Rong Yan and I are going back to Old Mr. Rong’s mansion for a family dinner tonight. Would you like to come along, Miss Mo?”
Luo Anning thought, she should back off now, right?”
I have already stated explicitly that it was a family dinner. Why should she tag along? She is clearly an outsider.
Rong Yan retracted his arm while Mo Xiyan said smilingly, “Ever since I returned, I haven’t visited Auntie and Grandpa yet. It happens that I have the chance to do so now.”
Luo Anning’s face grew sullen immediately. Mo Xiyan, are you foolish or just faking it!?!
It’s so obvious that I’m turning you down and yet, you’re still feigning ignorance. I take my hat off to you!
…
In the end, the three of them headed back to Old Mr. Rong’s mansion together.
Luo Anning felt extremely uncomfortable from suppressing her anger but there was nowhere she could vent it either.
Along the way, Mo Xiyan would continuously look for a topic to talk to Rong Yan about. She was neither too enthusiastic nor cold.
Rong Yan knew that she was feeling uncomfortable and hence would speak to her every now and then. However, that could not stop her from feeling terrible.
The journey to Old Mr. Rong’s mansion had never felt so long before.
Half an hour later, the limousine convoy arrived at the main mansion.
Butler Zhang had long been waiting there and as soon as the car stopped, he rushed forth to welcome them enthusiastically.
Mo Xiyan alighted first and said to Uncle Zhang smilingly, “Uncle Zhang, we haven’t met in four years but you’re still as energetic as ever. You haven’t changed at all.”
