Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 863: Chapter 873: You’ll Get Used to It

Lu Zhenting truly didn’t expect An Ran and Xiao Xiao to attend the party together. They had just exchanged a few pleasantries earlier. Noticing the two sitting on the sofa, he called his assistant over to bring his son, and together they walked over.

”Mr. An’s presence today truly graces this place,” Lu Zhenting remarked, knowing he couldn’t reveal An Ran’s identity earlier at the door. He had been avoiding it, but now with just the four of them, he greeted her earnestly.

An Ran rose slightly, ”President Lu, you’re too kind. How could I not come when you’re personally inviting me? Besides, Lu Yi also invited us over to have fun.”

Lu Zhenting laughed heartily, ”Then enjoy yourselves, don’t be too formal. If there’s any inconvenience, just let my son know. Lu Yi, take good care of Miss An and Miss Xiao.”

”Yes, father,” Lu Yi replied respectfully from behind. Only after Lu Zhenting left did he stick his tongue out at the two of them.

”Lu Yi, your dad is really intimidating. When he stood there just now, I felt a chill all over and pressure in my chest,” Xiao Xiao said, patting her chest.

An Ran knew that was the inherent aura of someone in a high position. She had felt it from Mu Zhenzong, Old Mr. Mu, and Old Mr. Lin, especially the deliberate pressure Old Mr. Lin exuded towards her. For someone inexperienced with the world, it could really make their legs go weak, so it was no wonder Xiao Xiao felt uneasy.

Lu Yi chuckled twice, ”Next time there’s a gathering like this at home, come a few more times. You’ll get used to it.”

”I’d better pass. Just looking at those people’s identities, you can tell this is not a place for someone like me,” Xiao Xiao felt uncomfortable as soon as she entered. If not for accompanying An Ran, she would never have set foot in such a place.

”Oh, don’t be like that, Xiao Xiao. You should come to these events more often now, so when you’re with certain people, you won’t be so nervous,” An Ran said with a mischievous smile.

Before Xiao Xiao could get upset, Lu Yi pulled her along, ”Let’s go, Xiao Xiao. Let me take you for a turn over there.”

Xiao Xiao saw Huo Shaohua walking over, knowing it was probably about the scene at the door earlier. She understood An Ran’s situation better than anyone and hadn’t expected to run into An Family members here today. Feeling indignant for An Ran, she greeted An Ran and followed Lu Yi.

”Mr. An, sorry, I didn’t know you were connected to Ansheng Group.” As soon as Huo Shaohua approached, he apologized to An Ran. He had been in charge of the case and hadn’t expected...

”It’s nothing,” An Ran indifferently picked up the cake she had just gotten and played with it casually. ”Since I’ve handed over the company to you all, it means I trust you. My relationship with Ansheng is my private matter, so it’s understandable that you didn’t know.”

”Thank you, Mr. An, for your consideration. Young Master Huo knows what to do now.”

Previously, it was understandable that he didn’t know about An Ran’s connection with Ansheng. But now that he did, the case between Wenshan and Ansheng would need to be reconsidered.

No matter what An Youcai said, An Ran’s attitude was clear. Looking at the attitudes of that mother and daughter, you could imagine what kind of life Mr. An had in the An Family.

Otherwise, given An Ran’s character, how could she do something ungrateful?

An Ran wasn’t worried about Wenshan’s matter. Huo Shaohua was smart; whether Wenshan cooperated with Ansheng or not, she didn’t plan to interfere. Since she said she was here to enjoy herself, she intended to focus on that and not let certain people or things ruin her mood.
