Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 464: Chapter 478: Maternal Home

An Youcai has outstanding looks, and An Sijia and An Sicheng inherited his good genes, both have decent appearances, and some people even said that they bear some resemblance to An Youcai.

An Sicheng was distracted by An Ran’s smile. He had always known his eldest sister was beautiful, but after not seeing her for six months, he noticed that she had developed an indescribable charm.

”Sis, is your brother-in-law treating you well?” An Sicheng thought about the unfinished conversation from yesterday. ”Actually, even if you find a good family, you don’t need to sever ties with ours. If your brother-in-law mistreats you, you can always return to your maternal home.”

An Ran chuckled and did not intend to reveal Sun Xuehui’s secret. ”Sicheng, this matter isn’t as straightforward as you think. Just leave it be. As for me, I’ll be waiting for you to become my maternal home.”

An Sicheng felt a bit embarrassed at the smile in An Ran’s eyes.

This sister’s personality was relatively aloof and withdrawn at home, but An Sicheng knew that this was her way of self-protection in front of their mother and their eldest sister. In reality, this sister was quite strong-willed.

He always knew the attitude their mother and eldest sister had towards her. Even when their mother told him that the eldest sister found a wealthy man and cut off relations with the family, he suspected that the situation wasn’t as simple as their mother described.

How could he not know his eldest sister’s kindness?

Seeing that An Ran had no intention of elaborating, An Sicheng didn’t ask further. He looked at her determinedly and promised, ”Sis, rest assured. If your brother-in-law mistreats you, tell me. I’ll definitely stand up for you.”

The two of them chatted for a while longer. Knowing that An Sicheng planned to return to Nan’an, An Ran helped him pack his things and they went downstairs together.

An Sicheng went to the front desk to check out, and An Ran waited for him in the nearby seating area.

At that moment, the elevator doors opened again, and a man and a woman stepped out.

The woman was wearing exaggerated sunglasses and a black mask, intimately hooking her arm through the man’s.

Yin Qianxue!

If one were to see her only in films and TV, perhaps her outfit would already be sufficiently concealed.

But An Ran had encountered her a few times. The time at Blue Sea and Sky left a very good impression on An Ran. She felt that Yin Qianxue, unlike her cool and distant screen image, was friendly and amiable, like a neighborhood sister.

Later, on the day Mu Wanxin got engaged, she trusted her so much, taking her words as absolute truth.

Honestly, Mu Xingfeng’s reprimand that day wasn’t undeserved.

Thinking back, although the investigation concluded that it was Feng Jingjing who framed Shen Wenxuan, Yin Qianxue was just a scapegoat changing clothes at that moment. Still, when recounted carefully, the whole incident seemed too coincidental.

Since she couldn’t catch evidence against her then and she was a contracted artist of Sun Wangbei’s company, An Ran didn’t pursue it.

Now, seeing her hooking her arm through the man as they walked out of the elevator, it was clear what they had done together the previous night.

Isn’t Sun Wangbei’s company the one most opposed to artists relying on their bodies to attract investors?

The man beside Yin Qianxue appeared somewhat familiar.

An Ran had difficulty recognizing faces. During her time in the Imperial City, Mu Xingfeng had taken her to several events where she met many people, but remembered only a few.

By now, the man had handled the procedures and was escorting Yin Qianxue out.

An Ran quickly turned her head, pretending to look at the scenery outside the window, while listening to the man say to Yin Qianxue, ”Darling, I have to go to the office. This morning is the first meeting after President Mu’s engagement, being late wouldn’t be good.”

An Ran remembered that this man was the manager of the advertising department at the Mu Family’s company. She had seen him once when she accompanied Mu Xingfeng to the company before.
