Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 1136 - 1138: Miss, Your Ring (Part 5)

Ji Anning clenched her fists nervously, keeping her head down, afraid the guards would look into the car and recognize her.

"Thank you." The guard glanced at the invitation and then returned it to Yao Yiyang with both hands.

Just when she thought it was over, she suddenly heard him say, "Please get out of the car for a security check."

It’s over!!!

Ji Anning’s heart sank, her palms instantly sweating, her eyes darting around, not knowing what to do.

All the guards here knew her, and once the car door opened, she would definitely be recognized.

Being recognized would mean not getting in, and today’s plan would be ruined.

She didn’t dare to lift her head, but sneaked a glance at Yao Yiyang’s reaction.

"Is it Mr. Yao?"

Suddenly, another guard came running over, looking at Yao Yiyang and asking.

Yao Yiyang nodded, "I am."

Seeing he admitted to being Mr. Yao, the guard turned to the other guard who had been checking them and said, "Mr. Charles instructed that Mr. Yao can go straight in."

Great!

Ji Anning looked up in surprise as the guard checking them bent down and apologized to Yao Yiyang.

Her heart almost leaped out of her chest, and she quickly bent down, pretending to pick something up.

The guard noticed someone in the back and looked over, and Yao Yiyang turned around, glanced at Ji Anning, and calmly introduced to the guard, "My companion."

Upon hearing this, the guard nodded apologetically, "Sorry for the disturbance, Mr. Yao."

"It’s okay." Yao Yiyang shook his head lightly and generously. Once the guard moved aside, he started the car.

Watching the car finally enter Charles’s courtyard, Ji Anning momentarily let out a small sigh of relief.

Curiously, she looked at Yao Yiyang and asked, "Why does he grant you special privileges?"

Yao Yiyang shrugged and shook his head, "Actually, I don’t know either. I’m just as curious as you are."

Ji Anning patted her chest, still reeling from the scare, "But just now really scared me to death. All these guards know me. If I got out for a check, I definitely wouldn’t have gotten in."

She had been thinking about strategies if she got recognized, whether to shout loudly like that day or just rush inside recklessly.

Yao Yiyang laughed and said, "I would have stalled them for you, you could just run straight in."

As he said this, he turned his head and gave Ji Anning an amused look.

Ji Anning looked at him and said with a smile, "I didn’t expect you to be so chivalrous."

Then she added, "And quite humorous."

Yao Yiyang chuckled and said no more.

Guards along the way gestured to guide the route to the parking lot, which was to the east of the house.

Yao Yiyang’s car slowly headed that way. They had already fully entered the Charles family estate, so does this mean... they succeeded?

Ji Anning held onto the back of the front passenger seat, looking out of the car window, feeling both nervous and excited, but most of all, expectant.

She was finally going to meet the uncle she had been longing for.

...

"Has my uncle not returned yet?"

The Charles family banquet hall was already bustling with people. All the important political figures from Y Country, as well as world-class tycoons, from the business, political, entertainment, education, and sports worlds, stars and big names could be seen everywhere.

But the star of today’s event, Yue Sen Charles, had yet to make an appearance.

No one could find him, and calls couldn’t get through. Korea was frantically pacing around.

She was wearing a form-fitting pink long dress, with a V-neck showing off half of her cleavage, the allure seductive yet fresh with its tender color.
