Chapter 372 - 372: Not Afraid?
Li Mei’s attitude could be considered acquiescence, but she did not nod in agreement.
However, this already made Zou Bai and Jiang An very happy. As long as they weren’t firmly against it, there was a chance.
Jiang An was also glad that she didn’t have to lie in the future. She really didn’t know how to lie to her mother.
Li Mei turned around to send the other guests off, leaving Zou Bai and Jiang An to talk. The two of them held hands and sat on the sofa, enjoying this rare peace.
Zou Bai asked, “An’an, are you really not afraid?”
“Afraid of what?” Jiang An asked in confusion.
Zou Bai held her hand tightly. “In the eyes of outsiders, I’m bloodthirsty, cruel, and heartless. 1 might shoot someone at any moment. Are you really not afraid of me when I’m like this?”
Of course, he understood why Li Mei was unwilling to accept him. If it were him, he would not be willing to marry Little Feather to such a person.
Zou Bai never cared what others thought of him. As long as the Zou Family was stable, he was willing to do anything. He didn’t think that he had done anything wrong.
However, this was the first time he felt unconfident in front of Jiang An. This was because Jiang An’s radiance and goodness was like the sun. He did not deserve the sun when he lived in the dark.
Jiang An reached out to stroke his cheek and said, “You also said that these are all in the eyes of outsiders. In my eyes, you’re not like that at all. You’re the best person in the world. You’re the strongest guardian god for me and the children.”
Zou Bai didn’t expect Jiang An to say such things. During this period of time, he could feel that she hated killing and didn’t want him to kill.
“An’an, I really love you.” Zou Bai hugged the person in front of him, his tone filled with deep love.
Jiang An hugged him back. The two of them hugged under the moonlight for a long time before letting go.
When the two of them walked out hand in hand, Jiang Huai subconsciously closed his eyes because he knew that an interrogation would break out next.
Li Mei and Jiang Hai were prepared and weren’t too shocked.
However, Jiang Yan and Jiang Xun did not know anything. When they saw this scene, they tried their best to control their expressions, but the twitching muscles on their faces still showed how shocked they were.
The two of them turned around to look at Jiang Huai. He had accompanied An’an on set for a long time, so it was impossible for him not to know anything.
Jiang Huai hurriedly turned to look elsewhere. It seemed that the wallpaper patterns in the banquet hall at home were very nice and worth his attention.
After everyone left, the two brothers pulled Jiang Huai into the house and pressed him on the chair, not allowing him to move.
“What happened to An’an during this period of time? You’d better tell me the truth!” Jiang Xun said angrily.
Jiang Yan also stared straight at Jiang Huai. Although he did not speak, he was very oppressive.
Jiang Huai was raised by his eldest brother when he was young, so he was most afraid of his eldest brother, especially his eldest brother’s expression now. It was exactly the same as whenever there was a parent-teacher conference back then.
“When I went to the set, An’an was already with Zou Bai. I couldn’t possibly separate them, right?” Jiang Huai explained.
Jiang Yan snorted. “Then you could have told us immediately, but you kept it a secret until now. What were you thinking?”
Of course, Jiang Huai didn’t dare to tell them. If he had told them, they would definitely rush over immediately. An’an would definitely resent him.
Moreover, the children really wanted their father to be by their side. He could not bear to make the children sad.
Seeing that Jiang Huai was silent, Jiang Xun yelled, “Say something!”
“It was An’an who begged me not to tell family members. I agreed when I saw An’an crying so sadly,” Jiang Huai casually made up an excuse.
Although An’an and Zou Bai had appeared in public and his parents didn’t have much of a reaction, he still didn’t dare to say that Zou Bai was the child’s father. He had to go to An’an to confirm if he could tell them.
Seeing that Jiang Huai refused to speak, Jiang Yan knew that he wouldn’t be able to get anything out of him. Fie said, “Since he won’t say anything, we’ll ask An’an later. We have to know what happened.”
He always thought of himself as a good older brother, but now the truth hit him hard on the head.
He didn’t even know that his sister was in love. He didn’t even dare to say that he was An’an’s brother.
Jiang An happily held Zou Bai’s hand, unaware that a storm was about to come.
After reluctantly sending Zou Bai off, she turned around and saw her three brothers. Jiang Yan and Jiang Xun’s expressions were very bad, while Jiang Huai avoided her gaze.
“What’s going on?” Jiang An asked.
Jiang Yan said, “We have things to ask you..”
