Chapter 391: Must Go

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang An was a little puzzled. He had clearly asked her to keep a distance from Zhao Yan just now. Why did he agree to attend the banquet now?

Faced with the confusion written on Jiang An’s face, Zou Bai said, “Since he invited you, he must have a backup plan. When the time comes, you have no choice but to go even if you refuse. Why don’t you let me follow you? You won’t be afraid even if anything happens.”

“I’m alone at home and I have to take care of the children. What can he do to force me to go?” Jiang An was very curious.

“There are tens of thousands of dirty tricks, such as going roundabout by inviting Auntie or your brother, then asking about you in a worried tone, and adding more details about me. Your family will definitely panic. When the time comes, he’ll ask you to go over and you’ll see his true colors,” Zou Bai said in a relaxed tone.

Jiang An really did not expect such complicated methods, but it was indeed possible if she thought about it carefully.

“I’m still too stupid. I didn’t expect there to be such underhand methods in the world,” Jiang An said in frustration.

Zou Bai pulled her into his arms and caressed her back. “An’an isn’t stupid. It’s just that you’re sincere and kind to everyone. People like us have grown up with schemes and plots. Our methods of scheming against others are self-taught. The method just now was already relatively open and aboveboard. It’s normal that you don’t understand.”

“But if we go together, everyone will know about our relationship. If word gets out, there will be discussions again,” Jiang An said worriedly.

“You don’t have to worry about that. No one will dare to talk nonsense about my matters,” Zou Bai said firmly.

Jiang An sighed and said, “In the end, I still have to go and see what Zhao Yan wants.”

Now, Jiang An didn’t have a good impression of Zhao Yan at all. She didn’t like anyone deliberately trying to get close to her, and this person hated Zou Bai very much.

Seeing the look of hatred on Jiang An’s face, Zou Bai smiled. “If he does anything annoying and you have to do something, feel free to do it. You don’t have to care about the consequences. Even without me by your side to protect you, you’re still the successor of the Jiang family of Xiyun. Your status isn’t lower than Zhao Yan’s.”

Of course, Jiang An also knew this. She was no longer the Tan Ming who could be bullied by others. Back then, she had swallowed her anger because she knew that no one would stand up for her. She could not resist these things and could only lower her head and accept reality.

Ever since she returned to the Jiang family, Jiang An knew that she didn’t have to endure it anymore. Her family would only be even sadder if she suffered.

That was why she thought of the idea of inviting Si Cheng to the banquet. In any case, Si Cheng could only lower his head in front of the Jiang family’s power. She only needed to convey that she didn’t like the other party and those rumors would be resolved.

“You don’t have to worry about this.” Jiang An smiled. “I’ll protect myself and the children.”

Zhao Yan’s banquet was set for the next night. Jiang An did not dress up very grandly. She took out an outdated dress and put it on.

When they got out of the car, they realized that this was not a small banquet at all. There were at least 200 people in the open-air venue.

“Why are there people from Beijing here?” Zou Bai asked.

Xiyun and Beijing were not close. Even if transportation was very convenient now, it was very troublesome for so many people to come to Xiyun. They were probably here because of the Zhao family’s reputation.

When these people saw Zou Bai, they quickly made way for him. The rich people in Beijing were very afraid of Zou Bai. It had barely been a few years since the major bloodbath. They did not want to provoke this demon.

Jiang An held Zou Bai’s arm and walked in under everyone’s gaze. As expected, no one dared to discuss it. They didn’t even whisper to each other. It could be seen how intimidating Zou Bai was.

Zhao Yan laughed loudly and came out to welcome them. “You guys have finally arrived. My neck is about to grow.”

Jiang An said politely, “I didn’t expect to be invited by Young Master Zhao. It took a long time to prepare.”

Her words were very distant, as if she had only met Zhao Yan once.

Zhao Yan was not surprised by Jiang An’s attitude. As Zou Bai’s girlfriend, she definitely had to stand with him. However, if she became his girlfriend, it would naturally be different.

At the thought of this, Zhao Yan became excited. He forcefully suppressed his emotions on the surface, but the gaze he looked at Jiang An with became even more fiery.

“I just went to the Jiang family to visit Auntie two days ago. An’an, you don’t have to be so reserved. You can be considered half the host at this banquet. Just be more comfortable,” Zhao Yan said..
