Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 286: Chapter 299: Couple’s Ticket

When they arrived, An Ran got out of the car and headed straight for a mall. Jiang Zhuo quickly parked the car and hurried to follow her, keeping a step behind her.

At first, An Ran didn’t think there was a problem, but after walking some distance, she began to feel increasingly uneasy. After browsing a shop, she finally spoke up: ”Driver Jiang, you could actually wait for me in the car. When I’m done shopping, I’ll naturally come back to the parking lot to find you.”

Having him follow her closely like this made her really uncomfortable.

”It’s fine, Miss An, you go ahead and shop. I won’t disturb you,” Jiang Zhuo said nonchalantly. How could he take lightly the task that Mr. Mu had entrusted to him?

An Ran: ”...”

You are already disturbing me, okay?

Seeing that Jiang Zhuo had no intention of leaving, An Ran lost interest in continuing to shop.

There was a cinema on one side of the mall, so An Ran headed straight for it.

”Great Righteousness” was currently showing, giving her the perfect opportunity to watch a movie.

Entering the cinema, seeing Jiang Zhuo still trailing behind her like a shadow, An Ran flashed a sly smile: ”Driver Jiang, do you want to watch a movie with me?”

Jiang Zhuo shook his head immediately upon hearing An Ran’s words: ”No, no, I’m just worried that Miss An might get lost.”

”Oh, is that so? I thought you wanted to watch a movie with me, and I was considering whether to buy a couple’s ticket. Since that’s the case, I’ll buy a single ticket then.”

Jiang Zhuo was almost scared to the point of wetting himself, Miss An, can’t you not speak so ambiguously? He still valued his life.

If Mr. Mu found out about this, it would be disastrous. A couple’s ticket?

”Miss An, please go ahead and buy your own ticket. I’ll just wait for you in the car,” Jiang Zhuo said and practically escaped out of the cinema.

Finally getting rid of him, An Ran breathed a sigh of relief. Having Jiang Zhuo nearby always made her feel strange, as if she were being indirectly watched by Mu Xingfeng.

After buying snacks, a drink, and a movie ticket, An Ran was just about to go inside when she was suddenly bumped into, causing all her popcorn to spill on the ground with a ”swoosh.”

”Hey! How do you walk, do you have eyes?”

Before An Ran could say anything, she heard the other person’s accusation. She looked up and saw a somewhat familiar face.

That’s right; An Ran had only been in Imperial City for a few days. Apart from the Mu Family and those few brothers, the person in front of her was indeed familiar to her.

It was Chen Yankun’s cousin, Chen Shanshan, and her friend Ji Jie.

”An Ran?” At this moment, Chen Shanshan also recognized An Ran and looked around in panic, ”Where’s Brother Mu?”

Last time in the mall, when she had an altercation with this woman, Brother Mu showed up halfway through, teaching her a lesson. Seeing An Ran in the cinema, it was hard to believe she had come to watch a movie alone. Brother Mu must have been held up by something.

An Ran didn’t miss the hint of panic in her eyes and knew what she was nervous about. However, she didn’t plan on entangling with her here. As Mu Xingfeng’s nominal girlfriend, she didn’t need to fulfill her role to the extent of fighting for him at all times when he wasn’t present.

”No need to look for him. Your Brother Mu didn’t come.” An Ran said, bypassing Chen Shanshan and heading inside.

Chen Shanshan didn’t believe it at first when she heard Mu Xingfeng wasn’t there. But then, seeing the ticket in An Ran’s hand, her eyes lit up instantly, and she grabbed An Ran.

”Could it be that Brother Mu doesn’t want you anymore? Look at you, looking so haggard. What is it? Did you come to the cinema to find solace after a breakup?”

An Ran looked at Chen Shanshan with an expression of disdain. How was she haggard? These past few days, Mu Xingfeng had taken such good care of her that she looked rosy and radiant.
