CHAPTER 996: CHAPTER 1006: BREAKING OFF THE ENGAGEMENT (2)

Although her marriage to Situ Xuan was a commercial union, the power of the Situ Family was undeniable, and it was said that Situ Xuan himself was not bad-looking. As a mother, hoping for her daughter to marry into a wealthy family and have a better life, what was wrong with that? Moreover, this matter could bring benefits to the Cheng Family’s enterprise, so she was absolutely determined to make it happen.

Because of this, when Jian Anning eloped, she cut off the supplementary card in Jian Anning’s hand, intending to force her to return sooner. However, as time passed, Jian Anning had been away from home for almost half a year. Not to mention finding her, Jian Anning had been completely silent during this time. She even made a special trip to Vancouver to consult a lawyer. The lawyer hadn’t received any information from Jian Anning either!

Despite the fact that other members of the Cheng Family still appeared displeased when talking about her, as a mother, no matter how bad their relationship was, how could she not be worried when her daughter was missing?

It’s just that, at this moment, when she saw Jian Anning about to go through security, she was completely stunned!

She never expected that her daughter, who had disappeared for half a year, would actually appear here!

In these few months, Jian Anning had changed a lot. She was thinner, but her spirit seemed much more vibrant than before. As Cheng Wanli had seen, although her attire wasn’t branded, it looked comfortable and relaxed, clearly not the cheap kind found on the streets. The biggest change was still in her demeanor. If half a year ago, someone had told Jian Panying that her eldest daughter was a lively and cheerful person who liked communicating with others, she absolutely wouldn’t have believed it!

What she could hardly believe was that Jian Anning, who usually kept to herself and was almost completely uninterested in finding a partner, now had a man with her!

This man wasn’t Yu Zexiao, but one of the bodyguards he had assigned to Jian Anning, assisting her with the luggage. Although Jian Anning had checked the heaviest items, she still carried a small bag with her, and it was the bodyguard who was helping her with it. As she was about to go through security, Jian Anning turned her head to look for her documents in the bag, which was when she was noticed!

But, regardless, this bodyguard indeed looked tall, handsome, and strong—standing next to Jian Anning, to an outsider, they might even look like a real couple!

Just a fleeting glance, just a side view, Jian Anning’s passing felt like a breeze that cleared a bit of the gloom in her heart. Unable to help herself, she took a few steps forward, watching Jian Anning move forward with just her handbag, stepping to the first spot in the security check area!

Next up, it was Jian Anning’s turn to go through security!

Jian Panying really panicked at this point. It was hard enough to get any news of Jian Anning; how could she let this opportunity slip by? Taking a couple of quick steps to catch up, she was promptly stopped by a service desk lady.

If it were someone else, she might not recognize them. But after the commotion caused by Jian Panying and Cheng Tingting, how could she not know? It had even resulted in her being scolded by the supervisor, and she still hadn’t gotten over it!

Just now, she said she left something behind, which was unavoidable, and she had to be let in to retrieve it. But now that the item was in her hand, she wanted to go in again? Not so easily!

So, she politely stopped her, even smiling to reveal her eight teeth: "Excuse me, ma’am, is there anything else you need?"
