Chapter 971: Chapter 981: Discussion (1)

As he was speaking, Cheng Wanli’s gaze swept over and caught sight of Jian Anning entering!

Actually, Jian Anning had changed quite a bit these past few months.

At the Cheng Family’s home in Canada, she was always a quiet, barely noticeable presence. Of course, her reason for acting that way was largely because she didn’t want the Cheng Family, who were “sheltering” her, especially the troublesome Cheng Tingting, to dislike her. Her attire was never attention-grabbing, and at that time, since she was a company executive, her clothes were consistently the same professional suits. Her good figure was wrapped in formal women’s suits, and even her shiny black hair was mostly tied up or simply in a ponytail style.

This version of Jian Anning was naturally quite ordinary and unremarkable. When recalled, it even seemed that her image in memory was just a vague, unclear silhouette.

And now, being with Yu Zexiao, especially since Yu Zexiao was a superstar in the entertainment industry. Yu Zexiao had been in the industry for many years and had a unique vision. Although he didn’t like women with heavy makeup, he could still slightly adjust Jian Anning’s look and outfit.

At this moment, her long hair was slightly trimmed, cascading neatly behind her ears. She wore a fitted beige dress with light, soft material that fully showcased her youthful and graceful figure. On top of that, there was a brightly colored light green windbreaker, the subtle light green accentuating her fair complexion significantly!

And below, she wasn’t wearing the featureless black high heels, but rather a pair of high-top sneakers. As she moved, a refreshing and lively aura came through!

Her face too underwent a meticulous makeover. As the saying goes, there are no ugly women, only lazy ones. Jian Anning was already fair, and although she wasn’t the jaw-droppingly beautiful kind in the entertainment industry, if you put her among ordinary people, she definitely was a pretty, charming beauty with an extraordinary aura!

Cheng Wanli was on the phone in a corner of the hotel’s lobby. As Jian Anning came in, she was following behind Yu Zexiao and Nie Anni, and Cheng Wanli only saw her profile. But, with Jian Anning now transformed beyond recognition, it took Cheng Wanli a moment to react.

Yu Zexiao and the others didn’t pass through the lobby but went into the VIP passage at the side door. Thus, the three of them flashed by at the lobby entrance, quickly reaching the small side door around the corner. Cheng Wanli stood at the corner of the lobby, watching Jian Anning and the others quickly flash past him, stunned for a few seconds. Over the phone, Cheng Juye couldn’t hear his son’s voice and called out in surprise: “Wanli, Wanli?”

“Dad, I have something to do, I’ll call you later!” Cheng Wanli hung up the phone and rushed out without another word!

The Hilton Hotel faced the most bustling street in Shangcheng, and as he dashed out of the hotel’s main entrance, it was crowded outside. By this time, Jian Anning and the others had already entered the VIP passage through the small side door! Cheng Wanli, running out like that, saw only the stream of pedestrians on the street, but no sight of Jian Anning and the others. Cheng Wanli was almost driven mad!
