CHAPTER 998: CHAPTER 1008: BREAKING OFF THE ENGAGEMENT (PART 4)

No, she clearly heard someone calling her. Moreover, that voice was extremely familiar—it was her mother!

How could it be her mother? How could she be here?

She couldn’t guess that she herself would come to Huaxia Country, right?

She had been running away from the arranged marriage for nearly half a year; she originally hadn’t expected that she would leave Toronto and be away for so long!

From the initial anger, to the anxiousness of being recognized later, and then to her interactions with Yu Zexiao, now her mood had calmed quite a bit.

Furthermore, even if Jian Panying really came over, it wouldn’t be a big deal—after all, she’s already preparing to leave Shangcheng.

Besides, with her marriage, neither she nor her stepfather has any authority to decide! Even if she meets Jian Panying right now, she still won’t marry Situ Xuan!

She stopped thinking too much, took a few steps forward, and let the airport staff help her pass through security.

"Why did it take so long?" Not far in front of her was Yu Zexiao. He was at the security checkpoint next to Jian Anning, watching as Jian Anning was also about to go through security, surprised that there was still a delay in between.

"It was just the person in front of me seemed to have a bit of a problem." The liquid they carried exceeded the limit and couldn’t pass security, causing some hassle. (Friendly reminder: when flying, you cannot bring liquids exceeding 100ML)

"Really, I asked you to go together, but you still didn’t want to!"

Yu Zexiao of course knew that Jian Anning deliberately went separately with him to avoid misunderstandings, so as not to be chased and blocked by fans afterwards.

This time returning to Yancheng, his father had gone to the water company’s location, so he wasn’t here. His mother typically followed his father, definitely not staying in Yancheng. However, he had thought it over, that even if his parents weren’t there, he would call to tell his mother about this matter.

At that time, Jian Anning was very pleasing to his mother; once his mother was satisfied, basically, their family was settled. His father appeared fierce, but was actually someone who listened to his wife the most. No matter how tough he was outside, if his mother shed a couple of tears at home, the furious Yu Jingxi would transform into a little lamb!

"I’ve thought it over, when we go home, we’ll call and tell mom about our situation." After all, at the airport, he was embarrassed to walk too close. However, even wearing sunglasses and lowering his voice, the curve at the corner of his mouth still brought up a slight arc of joy.

"So soon?" Jian Anning was startled, still in the state of not knowing if she had just heard Jian Panying’s voice unintentionally, lifted her head blankly and looked at Yu Zexiao.

"Is this soon?" Yu Zexiao said, looking around, noticing no one paid attention to them, he approached her a bit: "According to my original idea—today we’ll take the plane back, go directly to my home for dinner, and tell them about us quickly and settle matters early!"

"You really are..." Jian Anning also looked around, no one noticed. Fortunately, they had arrived at the VIP lounge inside the airport. There were even fewer people here. With over an hour before boarding, Yu Zexiao had been busy flipping things over these days and was quite tired; they could have a good rest inside.

------------------

In contrast to the calm inside with Jian Anning and Yu Zexiao, it was like a storm had brewed outside with Jian Panying and the Cheng Family!

Jian Panying wanted to chase after, to see if the one who just passed security was her own daughter!
