  It was the fifth day An Feng was in Ning City.

  When Nan Zhi video-called An Feng, she asked Nan Zhi, “Do you remember your grandaunt’s daughter?”


  “I do.”


  An Feng nodded. “Back then, your grandaunt’s daughter stayed with us at the An family and grew up with me.”


  “Yes, I remember. She went overseas later and we lost contact since then.”


  “She married a foreigner back then and had twin daughters. However, she left the world shortly after she gave birth. Her twin daughters are six years younger than you, and I met one of them today. Tang Ci is really pretty and came back to look for her family.

  “She’s getting married in a few days. After she met me, she cried for a while as she hugged me. I heard her mention that her twin older sister is gone as well, that she’s left alone. Her step-mother is not good to her, so she wants to invite me to her wedding.”


  Nan Zhi nodded understandingly. “It’s a good thing to invite you to her wedding. However, it’s been so many years since you’ve met, I’m worried……”


  “I know what you’re worried about. However, when Mom met her today, I thought about your grandaunt’s daughter. She grew up with me and we were closer than real sisters were. Now that her daughter is getting married with no relatives with her, I want to go.”


  Nan Zhi nodded. “Where is she getting married? Later, after your flight, I’ll send two bodyguards over.”


  An Feng knew what Nan Zhi was worried about, so she didn’t reject the thought. “She’s getting married in Mexico. I’ll send a photo of her wedding invitation to you later!”


  “Okay, take care, Mom.”


  After Nan Zhi received the photo of the wedding invitation An Feng sent her, she sent it to Yi Fan again.

  Not too long later, Yi Fan replied.

  The groom belonged to the Mo family, the head of the top four families in Mexico. In the past, the Mo family gained their wealth through war and had some background in the mafia. However, they had now cut their ties with the mafia and was doing legitimate businesses, thus, could be counted as a real elite family in Mexico.

  Yi Fan even found out that the man Tang Ci was marrying was the Second Young Master of the Mo family. He was involved in a fire accident not too long ago, and Yi Fan heard that he had been crippled in the fire.

  No elite young ladies were willing to marry him.

  Nan Zhi could briefly understand what was happening. Tang Ci’s father had probably forced Tan Ci to marry for the large betrothal sum.

  Nan Zhi called An Feng. “Mom, you should go. I’ll prepare a gift for you then.”


  Tang Ci’s situation made Nan Zhi remember what happened to her in the past, sympathy appearing in her heart……

  An Feng left Ning City two days before Tang Ci’s wedding. The flight from Ning City didn’t go straight to her destination, and she had to do a transit in between.

  When she was waiting for her transit flight, the flight was delayed, so An Feng went to a café to wait.

  Her hair had grown longer, having tied it into a low ponytail with a slight fringe parting. She wore a simple denim shirt and a long skirt. Her skin was fair and smooth, her facial features exquisite and pretty. Her aura was uniquely gentle and elegant. If she didn’t tell anyone, no one would be able to tell that she already had three grandchildren.

  While she waited, An Feng bought a cup of coffee and sat by the window. She took out a book from her bag, reading it as she sipped on her coffee.

  As she did, two men came over to ask for her contact.

  An Feng rejected them all politely.

  Halfway through her coffee, An Feng heard a pleasant tinkling laughter and looked up instinctively.

  All she saw was a tall and pretty woman wearing a fiery red long dress entering the café. The woman had blond curly hair, her figure voluminous as she looked extremely feminine, sexy and charming.

  After the woman entered the café, An Feng wanted to look away. However, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.

  Was she seeing wrongly? But then, who else could it be apart from Helian Xiao who followed behind the woman?

  Seeing him this time was different from the past. He was dressed more casually in a polo shirt and a pair of casual pants. He had a pair of sunglasses on his handsome and mature face, while he was carrying a woman’s handbag as well.

  “Darling, I want a black coffee.” The woman’s voice was vivacious and charming.

  “Okay, I’ll go order. You can go find seats for us first.”


  The woman placed a hand on his shoulders, leaning in to tell him, “You’re so wonderful.” She then walked away with a charming smile.

  There happened to be an empty table diagonally opposite of An Feng, and the woman walked over and sat down there.

  Not too long after, Helian Xiao brought two cups of coffee over. When he walked past An Feng, An Feng didn’t know if she should greet him or look down and act like an ostrich, hiding away from him.

  Back at the Capital, she had said for them to be strangers. Now that they had met, she didn’t know what he would think of her if she greeted him.

  It was fortunate that he didn’t stop when he walked past her as well.

  Helian Xiao placed a cup of coffee in front of the charming woman before sitting opposite her.

  After Helian Xiao sat down, he saw An Feng, who was diagonally opposite of the woman.

  His eyes narrowed slightly under his sunglasses.

  He didn’t act like he didn’t see her, as he nodded at her gentlemanly. His expression was faint, not too passionate nor too cold, merely treating her as a normal friend he had met occasionally.

  An Feng nodded at him as well.

  The charming woman glanced towards An Feng, blinking her eyes at Helian Xiao. “Darling, do you know that lady? She’s an Asian right? She looks so soft and nice!”


  Helian Xiao’s lips moved, as he said simply, “Yes, but we’re not very acquainted with each other.”


  The distance between the tables were not too big. With An Feng just sitting diagonally opposite of them, she happened to hear what Helian Xiao said.

  She didn’t know why, but her heart felt like bees had stung her softly.

  She felt slightly sad.

  However, who was she to be sad? She was the one who pushed him away and didn’t want to pursue a relationship between them.

  With his charm, he naturally didn’t lack any woman around him. If he was willing to, he could find anyone who was better than her.

  Besides, his new girlfriend was charming and feminine, he must really like her!

  An Feng wanted to treat Helian Xiao’s appearance as an interlude in her trip. She looked down to continue reading, but none of the words were going into her head anymore.

  Her ears were filled with the woman’s pleasant laughter, and Helian Xiao’s warm voice.

  Pushing aside the fact that Helian Xiao had raped her back then, Helian Xiao was indeed a very charming man who was mature and elegant. In that few days he was taking care of her in the hospital, even if she ignored him, he was still elegant, considerate and patient towards her.

  An Feng put away her book. When she stood up, she glanced at Helian Xiao. He had taken off his sunglasses, staring at the woman intently. The woman had whispered something softly, and he smirked softly. He seemed extremely mature and masculine.

  Picking up her bag, An Feng turned around to leave.

  He was probably only interested in her briefly. He had said before that men had a desire to conquer. The more they couldn’t get something, the more they wanted to get it. Besides, her constant pushing him away might have made him lose patience in her completely.

  He had already let go of her. But why was she so uneasy when she saw him chatting and laughing with another woman?
