Chapter 886: Chapter 887: Strange Man

"Of course! She’s the queen of the house! Whatever she says goes! Fully aware of Tian Niu’s family situation, yet she still poses such a difficult challenge." It was enough to give Gu Shuangshuang a headache.

"You don’t need to worry about money. If you ever want to get married and need money, just take it from me. Although I’m not sure if it’s right or what impact it will have on your future life, I do know the joy of being with your loved one," An Hao said softly.

"Isn’t that enough?"

Gu Shuangshuang was delighted and hugged An Hao, planting kisses on his face, "I knew it, I didn’t misjudge you."

"Alright now, aren’t you embarrassed with everyone watching?" An Hao looked around.

Seeing that everyone was eating and no one was paying attention to them, she was about to retract her gaze when she unintentionally glanced at a nondescript corner.

There was a man sitting there, dressed in a black shirt and trousers, wearing a duckbill cap—an outfit and aura that set him apart from the people and environment around him.

She couldn’t resist taking another look at him and suddenly felt a cold, piercing gaze fixed on her.

She sensed that the gaze was dangerous and aggressive, so she quickly looked away.

"What’s wrong?" Gu Shuangshuang noticed An Hao’s anomaly and asked quietly.

"It’s nothing, I just thought the man sitting in the corner looked a bit strange," said An Hao.

Gu Shuangshuang glanced in that direction and indeed, the man gave off an uneasy feeling.

So she too looked away: "Let’s just pretend we didn’t see him. He’s probably not here for us, just relax."

An Hao nodded.

The food arrived and An Hao and Gu Shuangshuang talked while they ate.

"Ah, it’s really strange," Gu Shuangshuang said to An Hao, "Weren’t you on very good terms with Teacher Cheng? But this time I feel like Teacher Cheng was quite aloof."

"That was in the past. Now we’re almost like enemies," An Hao put down her chopsticks and sighed deeply, "I once thought she was such a refined woman. But I hadn’t expected... She is someone with deep scheming and quite terrifying."

"What did she say to you?" asked Gu Shuangshuang.

"She’s set her sights on Qin Jian! And they had both been to the China-Vietnam Battlefield together. The last time she came over for dinner, she revealed her ambition. And that’s when I realised she had been coveting Qin Jian for a long time." An Hao was infuriated just thinking about it.

"...I can’t believe she’s that kind of person; it’s totally unexpected," Gu Shuangshuang was also shocked. Thinking back over everything, Gu Shuangshuang felt that Cheng Yu’s appearance in front of An Hao wasn’t an accident, it was probably inevitable.

Perhaps from the beginning, her approach to An Hao had a purpose.

"So what are you planning to do now?" asked Gu Shuangshuang.

"What else can I do but to be wary of her!" It’s true that you never know what’s in a person’s heart.

"Oh right. When Li Zhi and I came over last time, she said she was planning to go back," Gu Shuangshuang suddenly recalled that day and mentioned it to An Hao, "But before leaving, she said there was one more thing she wanted to take care of. I just don’t know what it is? She wouldn’t be plotting something to hurt you, would she!"

"She wouldn’t go that far. I’ve been working with her for over a month. There’ve been no movements from her so far. If she wanted to harm me, she would have done it already," An Hao analyzed, "I’m just a stepping stone for her to get closer to Qin Jian. Her real target must be Qin Jian."
