Chapter 28 An Nan Is Looked Down Upon
CHAPTER 28: CHAPTER 28 AN NAN IS LOOKED DOWN UPON
However, with the opportunity right at hand, there was naturally no reason to let go easily. She would firmly grasp today’s opportunity.
After teaching the woman before her a lesson, she would go have dinner with him, and maybe even spend a delightful night together.
Thinking about all this, she urgently wanted to deal with the woman in front of her and leave quickly, so her words became straightforward: "Miss An, if you have something to say, say it."
Looking at the other’s half-smiling eyes, An Nan felt a bit strange deep down, but didn’t think much more, and expressed her innermost thought: "Miss, I wonder if you could let me have the cufflinks just now."
After speaking, An Nan stared unblinkingly at the other with an extremely eager gaze.
What she didn’t expect was that the originally proud look turned to disdain in an instant, and those previously beautiful lips spoke words that were unbearably obnoxious: "Miss An, the cufflinks here aren’t cheap. Can you afford them? If not, don’t embarrass yourself here."
An Nan was stunned. On one hand, she found the hostility from the stranger before her quite inexplicable, and on the other, she was also angered. She pulled out a credit card and threw it on the counter, her voice a bit sharper than before: "I want these cufflinks."
After speaking, her icy gaze returned to the proud woman before her, and she said word by word: "Miss, may I ask who you are, and why you bear such animosity towards me."
Huo Bingxuan immediately felt like she wanted to vomit blood. This woman actually didn’t recognize her: "An Nan, don’t think that by pretending not to know me, you can gloss over the embarrassment you caused me at Young Master Xi’s birthday banquet."
Miss Huo’s temper flared up, and she even forgot the man she was fond of was still standing by her side, and also forgot she wanted to leave the most perfect impression on him.
Of course, in Lin Mubai’s view, at that moment, besides the woman in front of him, everyone else was mere clouds. He found the woman’s bewildered look irresistibly adorable, so adorable that he wanted to enfold her into his very being, cherishing her for a lifetime, and keeping her from other men’s sight.
An Nan was already trying hard to replay memories in her mind. Finally, her memory made a slight breakthrough. She did remember that at Xi Shaoqi’s birthday banquet, there was a woman targeting her, but she didn’t clearly remember what the woman looked like. Was it the woman in front of her? At this point, she felt a headache and also understood some things. It seemed this woman wouldn’t let her have the cufflinks today and was likely deliberately seeking trouble with her now.
So should she just turn around and leave in disgrace, or continue standing there to argue further?
Just when An Nan was filled with mixed feelings, her silence once again enraged Miss Huo, and the mocking voice continued: "A mere airplane pilot, yet still hoping to squeeze into high society, without recognizing her own status at all."
At this, the usually mild-tempered An Nan got angry. She loved her profession as a pilot and wouldn’t allow anyone to slander it. Instantly, she dropped her previous laziness, slightly narrowed her eyes with a cold gleam flashing in them, looked unblinkingly at the person before her, and with a frostily amused tone, said: "Since Miss Huo looks down on pilots, then maybe in the future, just don’t take our airline’s planes when you travel." She wanted to see if this woman could still fly out.
