A Reasonable Explanation, a Lame Excuse!

Anna's smile widened as she looked at Jiang Cheng, who was clearly not in the mood to react.

This time, she was determined to use her teacher to quickly close the distance between herself and Jiang Cheng.

Ideally, we should be able to cook the raw rice into a cooked meal in one go!

At this moment, Jiang Cheng was completely dumbfounded after hearing Anna's words.

What does that mean?

Please give me your guidance; this is too hasty.

You should at least give him a heads-up so he can be mentally prepared.

Damn, there's something dirty inside.

Just as I was silently complaining, a phone rang.

Upon seeing the name on the screen, Jiang Cheng immediately pressed the answer button, before he could even speak.

Zheng Yong's voice came through the phone.

"Xiao Jiang, I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush."

Then, he began to explain at length, appealing to their emotions and reasoning with them.

He left with the words "The capable should do more" and then hurriedly hung up the phone.

Jiang Cheng:??

To sum it up, they were essentially handing Anna and her brother over to him...

Beside her, Yun Ruoxi, who had heard every word of the conversation, curled her red lips and gave Anna a meaningful glance.

She knew immediately who was behind this.

Given Anna's and her partner's status, making a small request would be a piece of cake.

As for the purpose, it goes without saying.

"Jiang Cheng, thank you for your help. Let's go."

Anna pursed her red lips, her tone slightly embarrassed.

But hidden in those beautiful, sparkling eyes was a hint of barely perceptible excitement and longing.

"You're too kind, Princess Anna."

Jiang Cheng sighed, but remained polite.

He originally thought that with Zhao Hongying and Ye Qingying around, he could slack off a bit and find opportunities to spend more time with the pregnant Qin Yan.

But what can be done now?

He took the opportunity to build a good relationship with Anna and the others, so that the two women wouldn't side with Ye Bufan.

Meanwhile, Kyoto University.

In the Principal's office, Zheng Yong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead after hanging up the phone.

He now feels that he was truly brave!

They actually dared to directly pass the matter on to the grandson-in-law That One the Qin Family.

But he had no choice; his superiors had entrusted him with such an important task.

He made arrangements with all his heart and soul, and even planned to invite the old Principal to come out of retirement.

Everything was going smoothly and proceeding according to plan.

Who knew that Princess Anna would call him last night and say that there was no need for a big fuss, and that it would be fine to just have someone show them around.

This completely disrupted the original plans.

Given the other party's identity and the fact that they were acting in their best interests, there was simply no reason to refuse.

If he can't even handle such a small matter, his superiors will surely doubt his abilities.

Moreover, Princess Anna 'That One words mentioned Jiang Cheng's name both openly and subtly.

He even suspected that the princess of the Eagle Royal Family had come specifically for Jiang Cheng!

"Could it be that Princess Anna has taken a liking to Jiang Cheng?"

Zheng Yong picked up his water glass, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Just as I was reflecting on this, the office door was suddenly pushed open with a thud.

With a loud bang, Zheng Yong's hand trembled, and he grabbed a tissue while speaking.

"Who's here?! Don't you know how to knock before you come in?!"

"It's me."

Ye Qingying strode in with her long, beautiful legs, her heels clicking on the ground.

"Professor Ye... what brings you here?"

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Zheng Yong's eyes were filled with doubt.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he had a feeling that Miss Ye wasn't in a good mood today.

Although she had always seemed aloof and detached from worldly affairs, she didn't have the slightest air of a spoiled young lady.

But just now, he pushed the door open and walked in, his tone carrying a hint of anger.

"Principal, why did you change your mind at the last minute and leave Jiang Cheng to take charge alone?"

Ye Qingying's cold eyes were full of dissatisfaction as she spoke calmly, "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation."

She finally had a legitimate reason to get close to Jiang Cheng and originally planned to make the most of the opportunity.

When they arrived at the destination, Zhao Hongying informed them that the arrangements had changed.

"Master Ye... Miss, please calm down. Let's sit down and talk things over."

Feeling the oppressive aura emanating from Ye Qingying, Zheng Yong swallowed hard and explained,

"This wasn't my idea; it was Princess Anna who suggested it..."

A moment later, after listening to Zheng Yong's words, Ye Qingying frowned and snorted coldly.

Anna, that woman, really knows how to play the game!

Ye Qingying glanced at Zheng Yong briefly, said nothing, and turned to leave.

"Sigh, what a mess this is."

Zheng Yong sighed helplessly, "One by one, if I can't afford to offend them, can't I at least avoid them?"

On the other side, Jiang Cheng fell into deep thought as he looked at the huge screen in front of him.

What's going on with these two? Weren't they here to learn about Dragon Country culture? What are they doing at the movie theater?

He could understand if it were a historical or cultural film.

What does "optional adult films" mean?

"Princess Anna, are you sure this is the place you wanted to come to?"

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Cheng spoke, unwilling to give up.

Upon hearing this, Anna smiled and nodded earnestly, "That's right, dear Jiang."

"Annie was curious about what movie theaters in Dragon Country looked like, and she insisted that I take her there."

"But I'm in an unfamiliar place, so I'll have to trouble you."

Anna finished speaking in one breath, without blushing or skipping a beat.

In fact, it was her idea to improve her relationship with Jiang Cheng.

She originally wanted to choose a horror movie.

After all, this way, she could use fear as an excuse to snuggle into Jiang Cheng's arms and seek comfort and protection.

But on second thought, choosing a more exciting movie might create a more suitable atmosphere.

Since we've already booked the entire venue, it's not impossible to use it here later.

Thinking silently, Anna pursed her dry lips, and anticipation began to rise in her heart.

Beside her, Annie puffed out her cheeks angrily.

My sister is so mean, she pushes everything onto me. Saying that makes her sound so stupid!

What if it affects her image in Jiang Cheng?

At this moment, after listening to Anna's serious nonsense, Jiang Cheng's lips twitched.

Oh, that's a really novel reason, but also a really lame one!

Well, this is fine too, it doesn't take much effort.

Jiang Cheng turned his head left and right, silently sizing up Anna and her sister, and then smiled, "No trouble at all."

To Annie's right, Yun Ruoxi pursed her lips and smiled meaningfully.

Although she really wanted to sit next to Xiao Cheng, those two girls acted too quickly.

She had no chance at all, and she couldn't show it too obviously, sigh~

"Princess Anna, the movie is starting."

Seeing that Anna still wasn't turning her head and was still staring straight at him, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but remind her.

Why is this woman watching him instead of watching the movie?

Is there something on his face?

Jiang Cheng was speechless for a moment, and vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Anna's eyes seemed so familiar!

It was so familiar that it gave him the feeling of being treated like prey, and he inexplicably shuddered.
