Looking at Annie's sparkling eyes, Jiang Cheng seriously said, "Annie, I told you last time not to be so intimate with boys, did you hear me?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng looking at her, Annie giggled, pulled her hand away, and then touched Jiang Cheng's cheek again: "I know, Big Brother Jiang Cheng, you're so handsome, much more handsome than Big Brother Jun Kai. I've really decided not to like Big Brother Wang Jun Kai anymore."
Jiang Cheng looked helpless at Annie's erratic thoughts.
This little brat was much harder to coax than a proper woman, so Jiang Cheng decided to hand her over to An Xin.
"Let's go, let's find your mom."
"Okay, okay, let's go quickly, I'll take you!"
Annie cheerfully jumped up and down.
She eagerly pulled Jiang Cheng's hand and walked forward, as if afraid Jiang Cheng would change his mind.
They walked through the corridor and went upstairs.
After taking the elevator to the ninth floor, some retro music drifted from the lobby.
A band was singing the song "Night Shanghai" on the stage in the middle of the dining area.
Annie pointed to the outdoor balcony separated from the inside.
"My mom is over there!"
Jiang Cheng looked over. This was the Cathay Room, the terrace dining area on the ninth floor of the Peace Hotel.
It offered the best view of The Bund and was the perfect romantic spot for couples.
However, at this moment, only An Xin was left, holding a glass of red wine, propping her chin, and staring blankly at the bustling traffic below The Bund.
Her waterfall-like, slightly curly long hair hung down her back, revealing smooth, slender arms and a perfect waist-to-hip ratio.
Overall, she exuded a great sense of beauty, perfectly blending with the dazzling scenery of The Bund in the distance.
Annie, holding Jiang Cheng's hand, happily shouted to An Xin, "Mom, look who's here."
Watching An Xin suddenly turn her head and look at them both.
Jiang Cheng's heart skipped a beat unexpectedly.
Damn, this... this is clearly the feeling of being smitten again!!
Under the soft lighting, An Xin wore a tight, sparkling black strapless dress.
Her eyes were as picturesque, deep and long, shimmering with a melancholic light like stars.
Her lips were slightly pursed, making her appear cool and distant.
However, the moment she saw Jiang Cheng, her pupils immediately constricted slightly, the melancholic aura instantly dissipated, and her entire gaze became bright and profound.
An Xin stood up in surprise, her voice cheerful.
"Jiang Cheng, why are you here?"
"I came to eat with my roommate and just ran into Annie in the corridor."
An Xin looked at the giggling Annie beside her and asked nervously, "Oh, really? Annie didn't cause you any trouble, did she?"
Jiang Cheng shook his head and didn't mention how Annie tricked him into coming to see An Xin.
"Why are you alone? Didn't Annie say you were eating with someone else?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng ask this, An Xin took a breath, as if relaxing: "I sent them away. Want to sit down and eat something?"
Before Jiang Cheng could speak, Annie pulled him to sit in the seat next to An Xin.
"Come, Big Brother Jiang Cheng, sit here."
Jiang Cheng pointed to the cute little plate on the seat.
"Isn't this your seat?"
Annie nodded: "Yes, but now it's yours. I don't need to sit; I'll just stand next to both of you."
After speaking, Annie very conspicuously stood happily in the center between Jiang Cheng and An Xin.
This instantly made the previously somewhat awkward scene become a little warmer.
