Zuo Hancheng had not returned even after ten in the morning.
And he didn’t even call her.
Anhao stood in front of the window and looked out. There were cars and people coming and going in the neighborhood, but Zuo Hancheng was nowhere to be seen.
However, she received another piece of news.
Chunchun and Huang Amao had called to inform her that Rongxue’s entertainment company had issued a notice saying that they would hold a press conference on the first floor of XX Hotel in City A at two o’clock in the afternoon. They planned to tell the media about her development in China and the recent news.
Chunchun said. It was obvious that Rong Xue was not going to let it go. Even if Zuo Hancheng had defended Anhao in front of the media and resolved the matter, Rong Xue would not allow others to see her as an entangled ex-girlfriend. She wanted to tell the media the ” truth
If the development of the situation was more and more beneficial to Rong Xue, it would be less and less beneficial to Anhao. This was originally a single choice. When this battle started, there could only be one winner between Anhao and Rong Xue.
Anhao understood this, but she didn’t understand what Chunchun and Huang Amao meant when they told her to wait for news at home.
Zuo Hancheng was still not back until one o’clock in the afternoon. Anhao called Chunchun and Huang Amao, but neither of them picked up.
Previously, he had only told her not to show her face on the phone. He had even said that he would make Rongxue’s press conference more exciting and that Anhao would turn on the television at home to wait for the good show.
She was worried that the two of them would be angry because of what they had seen in the bar last night. She was worried that the two of them would do something to Rong Xue to avenge her, or… The last thing she wanted to do, but the most likely thing to happen, was for Chunchun and Huang Amao to make a scene at Rongxue’s press conference.
Huang Amao’s parents were businessmen, but they had relatives who were in charge of the security department. Some police officers also had relatives of Huang Amao’s family. If they wanted to sneak into the press conference among the security guards and criminal police, Huang Amao only needed to call their relatives. They could easily sneak in.
The more Anhao thought about it, the more she felt that the purpose of the two of them was to cause a ruckus at the press conference. After a few times when no one picked up the phone, she directly picked up her coat and ran out of the door. She didn’t even have time to comb her hair.
However, just as he ran to the entrance of the neighborhood and was about to take a taxi to the press conference, he almost bumped into the familiar black Bentley that was about to enter the neighborhood.
She stopped in her tracks and looked at the car in front of her. When Zuo Hancheng rolled down the window and looked at her, she did not know if she should let go or if she should let go.
“Why are you in such a hurry?”
Zuo Hancheng’s eyebrows twitched slightly when he saw her running out with her hair down and a coat draped over her shoulders.
“Chunchun and Huang Amao have been holding a grudge against Rongxue because of the rumors in the media these past few days. I heard something wrong with their tone when they called in the morning. Now that I think about it, I suspect that they might be going to Rongxue’s press conference.”Anhao did not plan to tell him what happened last night. She looked at Zuo Hancheng in the car and said,””l was afraid that something would happen, so I wanted to go to the scene to look for them.’
“Get in the car,” Zuo Hancheng said.”
Anhao froze for two seconds before she realized that he was going with her.
However, was it to accompany her to find Chunchun and Huang Amao, or was it because of Rongxue…
She didn’t have time to think about it now. She quickly opened the car door and got in. After she fastened her seatbelt, she held her bag tightly and looked ahead, but she pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
Zuo Hancheng quickly reversed the car and turned to the middle of the road.
Anhao peeked at his side profile through the rearview mirror and saw that his expression was cold and solemn, and he did not seem to explain why he came back so late.
She wanted to ask him where he and Rongxue went last night, but she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Yesterday, Rong Xue had thrown herself into his arms. After he whispered a few words into Rong Xue’s ear, Rong suddenly raised her hand and wrapped it around his neck. The scene pierced her heart.
Her grip on her bag tightened until two cars suddenly collided in front of her. Zuo Hancheng’s car almost crashed into it because it was traveling very fast.
Anhao tightened her seatbelt in shock when she suddenly braked. However, when she saw that their car was only half a meter away from the scene of the accident, her heart skipped a beat. It took her a long time before she turned to look at Zuo Hancheng.
Seeing Zuo Hancheng’s ugly expression, he quickly turned around and drove towards another intersection.
His driving skills had always been reliable. When had he ever been in such a bad state?
He didn’t even notice that a car accident had happened in front of him when he was just ten meters away. He only braked when he was right in front of him.
What was he thinking?
Is there something on your mind?
Anhao slowly released her hand from the seat belt. Zuo Hancheng’s expression was so cold that she did not know if it was the right time to ask him where he went last night.
However, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon, and he had only just returned. He had not even called him before.
This was not his usual style.
However, if he didn’t ask now, he would have to ask sooner or later. Even if he seemed to be in trouble now, even if he didn’t look well, if he delayed any longer, it would probably cause more misunderstandings.
After the lesson in T City, Anhao didn’t want to be so willful and leave in a fit of anger because she didn’t know the situation. She wanted to know the reason and the truth.
She wanted to know why Zuo Hancheng went to the bar to meet Rong Xue.
She wanted to know what Zuo Hancheng had said to Rong Xue.
She wanted to know where Rong Xue was last night and why he came back so late without even calling her.
“Actually, last night, I was there too…”
Just as Anhao’s voice rang out, Zuo Hancheng suddenly slowed down.
She paused, sensing the situation outside the car, and turned to look outside.
They had already arrived near the hotel where the press conference was being held. However, there were many people pouring in from outside the hotel. They were now surrounded. More importantly, there were police officers and security guards among them. All of them looked frightened and flustered, as if something had happened.
Anhao looked in that direction and her heart trembled. Could Chunchun and Huang Amao have really done something..
It was no longer possible to drive inside, so Zuo Hancheng decisively parked his car in a parking space by the roadside.
Anhao took the opportunity to roll down the car window and asked a security guard by the roadside, “”What happened inside?”
The security guard did not turn around to look at them. He only said casually when he heard the voice,” Aiya, it’s that big celebrity. It’s that female celebrity called Rongxue who was holding a press conference inside. Suddenly, the billboard above fell down. The huge metal frame that supported the billboard fell directly onto the female celebrity. The situation at the scene was tragic. I heard that the ground was covered in blood….”
