Chapter 1234: Chapter 1234: What are you afraid of, afraid that I’ll eat you?

Looking at the family of three before her, the feeling in her heart was indescribable.

“Buzz buzz–”

Her phone suddenly vibrated.

Ning Yanan was startled, then realized it was her own phone.

Seeing the flickering name on the screen, it took her several seconds before she reached out her finger and hung up the call.

She watched attentively as the family of three stood together.

Dan Hanjie held his son in one arm and embraced his delicate wife with the other, standing naturally with an air of nobility that even the photographer had to admire.

Simple actions, under their family’s performance, became extraordinarily beautiful.

Ning Yanan’s eyes glistened slightly as she took out her phone, and she couldn’t help but take a few photos of them.

No matter how bitter she felt, seeing her best friend happy somehow made her inexplicably happy, too.

Before the wedding photoshoot was finished, Ning Yanan stood up, greeted an assistant at the side, and left first with her bag in hand.

“Beep beep–”

Just as Ning Yanan reached the roadside, a car horn suddenly blared, startling her.

Turning her head to see the man in the car, her eyes shimmered, and she turned to walk in another direction.

“Yaya…”

Jiang Jinchen quickly followed in his car and blocked her path on the road.

He opened the driver’s side door and stepped out quickly.

“Why didn’t you answer my phone call?”

“…”

Ning Yanan’s eyes twinkled, and she turned her head away without speaking.

They had already broken up; she had no reason to answer his calls.

“Come with me to a place.”

Jiang Jinchen saw her resistance and grabbed her wrist, pulling Ning Yanan into the car.

“Jiang Jinchen, where are you taking me? Let me go first.”

Ning Yanan was shocked and immediately began to struggle, reaching out to grab the rearview mirror by the car door.

She looked up at Jiang Jinchen.

“You’ll know when we get there.”

Jiang Jinchen grabbed her wrist and forcefully pushed her into the car, then locked the doors.

He quickly walked around to the driver’s seat and got in.

The car shot out like a released arrow.

“Jiang Jinchen, what on earth are you trying to do?” Ning Yanan looked at him driving toward the city, her eyes flickering with nervousness.

“What are you afraid of? Afraid I’ll eat you?”

Jiang Jinchen’s casual teasing and a glance at Ning Yanan’s darkening expression made him realize he’d said the wrong thing.

The atmosphere in the car became somewhat gloomy in an instant.

“Buzz buzz–”

The sound of the vibrating phone was especially jarring in the quiet car.

Ning Yanan glanced at the caller ID, pressed mute, and didn’t answer.

Jiang Jinchen glanced at her somewhat pale face, his mouth curling into a cold sneer.

“It seems to me that, in your heart, I am the same as Mo Xiyan. Seeing both our phone calls, this is how you handle them?”

“…”

Ning Yanan said nothing.

She was familiar with Jiang Jinchen’s temper; when he was unhappy, whatever she said would be wrong.

Rather than completely enraging him, she preferred to keep silent, saving some breath.

“Swoosh–”

Jiang Jinchen swung the steering wheel, and the car stopped abruptly next to the road’s safety line.

He turned his head and glared at Ning Yanan.

“Do you really see me the same as him?”

“I remember we’ve already broken up. Now, this question should not be asked by Mr. Jinchen. How I think about you is none of Mr. Jinchen’s concern.”

Ning Yanan glanced at his furious look and felt somewhat amused.

When he and Jing Yan announced they were dating, openly showing affection, he hadn’t thought about how she would feel.

She and Mo Xiyan were merely colleagues, yet he had the audacity to question her like this.
