Chapter 246: What Do You Take Me For? (2)
Kristen humphed and asked, “If apologies were enough, what are policemen for?”
Luo Anning was speechless.
I don’t think I did anything illegal, did I?
Displeased to hear that she had ignored him, Kristen urged, “Luo Anning, say something. Don’t think you can escape by staying silent.”
“Okay,” Luo Anning expressed assent before propping herself up. She looked at the time to see that it was already noon and her stomach was rumbling.
“Kristen, when you visit China next time, I’ll definitely cook up a feast to make it up to you, alright? Let me off for now. I’m still looking for some food to fill my stomach with.”
“You’re not coming to England anymore?” Kristen asked as his voice suddenly became lower.
“Yeah, I won’t be going there again.” There was no reason for her to visit England again.
She couldn’t go to England anymore. After all, she had terrible memories of that place.
Kristen remained silent for a long while before sighing and saying, “Okay, I’ll find the opportunity to look for you in China. If there’s nothing else, I’m going to hang up now.”
Before she could even answer, he hung up.
Luo Anning put down the phone and headed to the bathroom to freshen up before making her way downstairs for breakfast, clad in her casual clothes.
Upon sight of her, Auntie Li immediately rushed forth and asked, “Young Madam, are you hungry? Come here, the cook made your favorite dishes. Hurry, come and eat.”
The enthusiastic Auntie Li urged Luo Anning to have a seat, after which the latter hurriedly wolfed down her food without caring about her image or table manners.
The obvious reason being, she was famished! She was so hungry that she could eat an entire cow!
Auntie Li stood by the side and chuckled while Luo Anning enjoyed the meal. “Young Madam, do you have anything on later? Or do you plan to go anywhere?”
Luo Anning paused and glanced at Auntie Li apprehensively. “Is there an issue?”
Auntie Li would never ask her such questions or pay attention to her whereabouts unless Luo Anning took the initiative to tell her.
After hearing Luo Anning’s question, Auntie Li grinned wider and said, “No, no, the temperatures are just warmer lately. You’d better not go out. It would be terrible if you get a heatstroke. Don’t you think so, Young Madam?”
“Auntie Li, don’t you think you’re being a little strange today?”Luo Anning asked frankly.
Auntie Li expressed assent while Luo Anning continued, “So what if the temperatures are warmer? I’m not going to stand under the scorching sun anyway. Besides, don’t you know that there’s something called an air conditioner?”
“Well… um, you’re right. Hehe.”
Luo Anning was speechless.
Auntie Li did not say anything else and instead kept her eyes fixed on Luo Anning, seemingly deep in thought. She seemed to have something to say to Luo Anning but could not bring herself to.
Luo Anning did not probe further and instead focused on stuffing herself with food.
After lunch, Luo Anning ran upstairs to call Lu Momo out of boredom.
It had been a while since she left for England. Luo Anning began to get curious about gossip after recalling Lu Momo’s complaints about Tang Chao previously.
“Hello, Momo!”
“Ah! Little Anning, I miss you so much!”
“Since you miss me so much, do you want to meet me tonight?” Although it was a question, Luo Anning had already picked a satin dress from her closet and got ready to put it on.
Just as she expected, Lu Momo exclaimed in excitement, “Yes, yes, I must see you!”
After settling on the time and place, Luo Anning changed into her outfit in no time and rushed out of Luxury Mansion, leaving Auntie Li behind to call after her worriedly.
