Chapter 730

~4 min read 720 words

"You all..."

Just at this moment, Jiang Nannan's voice came from behind.

Sheng An, Liu Hang, and the staff members immediately turned their heads to look at Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan's eye rims were still slightly red, though it was hard to tell without looking closely, and her mood was somewhat low.

She had been thinking of returning to her room to put on some simple makeup to improve her complexion, but when she arrived, there were several people standing in her room.

Seeing that there were no issues, the staff members left first.

The moment Sheng An saw Jiang Nannan, he noticed something unusual about her, "Did you run into something?"

Liu Hang came back to his senses and glanced at Sheng An, who still had a worried look on his face, "I came to look for you, but you didn't respond to my knocking or phone calls, so I found some staff members to come over. You're alright, aren't you?"

"I'm fine, I just went out for a bit. My phone... I must have accidentally bumped it onto silent mode. Sorry, I didn't notice." Jiang Nannan picked up her phone and took a look.

It must have been when she received the call from Huo Jingyan that she accidentally hit the silent button.

She hadn't paid any attention to it at the time.

Sheng An lowered his gaze.

Jiang Nannan walked in, "I bought quite a few things, we can eat them together right now."

Liu Hang held his breath as he stared at Sheng An.

He was one step away from mentioning Jiang Nannan's married status again to remind Sheng An.

Fortunately, Sheng An never dropped the ball at critical moments.

"I happen to be hungry," Sheng An said.

Liu Hang checked the time, "We have half an hour before we leave, we can eat something now."

Otherwise, after spending most of the evening out, it would be easy to be hungry enough to feel faint.

Jiang Nannan was actually in low spirits; it was clear she had something on her mind. When she had no interest in things, she was like a little girl who would talk incessantly.

But neither Sheng An nor Liu Hang pointed it out.

It wasn't until half an hour later, when they went downstairs to prepare to leave for the event, that the two of them learned the reason.

They happened to run into Huo Jingyan getting into a car nearby.

Huo Jingyan glanced at Jiang Nannan, and then, as the car window closed, he swept a look at Sheng An.

He didn't say a single word the entire time.

But the atmosphere was eerily intense.

Liu Hang felt as if someone had grabbed his throat, his breathing becoming slightly tight.

He turned his head and asked Sheng An in a low voice, "What was the meaning of that look Huo Jingyan just gave you?"

Why did it feel like Huo Jingyan's look just now was like looking at a romantic rival?

Sheng An liked Jiang Nannan, a fact that even Jiang Nannan herself couldn't see and was unaware of; how did it feel like Huo Jingyan seemed to know everything?

This...

Sheng An's expression was cold.

It was this sense of distance, as if there were ten thousand mountains between him and others, that damnably made Liu Hang uncomfortable. He was too familiar with Sheng An's character; the way he was now meant his guess was correct!

Wasn't this just looking for trouble for himself?

He looked toward Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan had just applied very light daily makeup in the restroom, and her complexion looked much better.

But when she saw Huo Jingyan just now, her expression still changed; even foundation and blush couldn't hide that momentary loss of soul.

Anyone with eyes could see now that there was a problem between Jiang Nannan and Huo Jingyan.

He had felt before that even if Jiang Nannan and Huo Jingyan got back together, it certainly wouldn't lead to any results.

With Jiang Nannan's stubborn little personality, how could she possibly accept the fact that Huo Jingyan had cheated?

By the time they got into the car, no one spoke.

Liu Hang naturally wouldn't look for trouble for himself, his mind pondering how to deal with the successive challenges to come.
