Chapter 317: Chapter 317: When She Grows Up, She Wants to Marry Him (1) Chapter 317: Chapter 317: When She Grows Up, She Wants to Marry Him (1) Watching Gu Annan’s “keep making that up” look, she realized that what she’d just said might not be very convincing.

Who gets engaged without their father knowing?

“It was my mom’s decision.” She cleared her throat slightly. “It’s true, my mom arranged it a long time ago. It’s been so long that I had forgotten about it. It only came back to me when you brought out the photos that day.”

“Photos?” The initially icy gaze of the man suddenly lifted his eyebrows in questioning.

The last time he flipped through her album, the only thing he had asked about was that group photo.

“Yes.” Seeing his expression change, Lu Wanwan took the opportunity to pull her hand back. “It’s that boy in the photo, my mom said I was going to marry him when I grew up. I didn’t understand as a child, but thinking about it now, I feel it might have been my mom’s last wish.”

Gu Annan stared at her for a long while. “Do you know who he is?”

“…I don’t know.” Under his piercing gaze, she finally told the truth but quickly raised her head again, “But I can find out, so, you enjoy your bachelor party. I need to start looking for clues about my fiance.”

“Even if you don’t know him?” His eyes narrowed slightly as he observed her serious demeanor.

“I told you, it might be my mother’s last wish, and I can’t think of a reason to break the engagement. We need to keep our promises, right?” Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him.

Gu Annan’s lips tightened. Great, she could do anything now to get rid of him, even without knowing who the other person was.

“Fine.” His lips curved coldly as he nodded, “You find him. Keeping promises is a good thing, I’ll support you.”

Lu Wanwan was let go, feeling somewhat dazed.

Watching as Gu Annan headed to the parking lot without any intention of stopping her.

Especially that sentence, “I’ll support you,” made her wish she could take back everything she’d just said.

She felt that Gu Annan cared about her a little, which is why she wanted to see his reaction.

His initial anger had somehow completely vanished by the time he said, “I’ll support you.”

Not a trace of intent to stop her.

Lu Wanwan returned to the entrance of her residential area, still carrying the gift for Gu Annan in her bag.

She was prepared for both scenarios: if Gu Annan was busy today, she’d just give him the birthday gift directly.

If he wasn’t busy, she also had a cake prepared for him.

But unexpectedly, Gu Annan just left after giving her the sentence, “I’ll support you.”

Lu Wanwan hadn’t even entered the residential area when suddenly, a force yanked her bag down vigorously.

By the time she reacted, she saw a man in a hoodie sprinting ahead.

Her neighborhood was old, not very secure, and somewhat remote, but there wasn’t much news of robberies in broad daylight.

“Stop!” Without much time to think, she ran after him, shouting, “Robbery!!”

Only a few forsaken convenience stores were around, and no one stepped out to help.

Seeing her daring to chase, the man in the hoodie turned into an alley.

Lu Wanwan was anxious, and without thinking, she followed him into the alley.

“Stop, give me back my bag!”

It was already deserted outside, but the alley was even more so.

The man in the hoodie turned around, brandishing a knife with a menacing look, “Are you looking for death?”

The gleaming knife was just a few steps away from her.

Lu Wanwan’s voice trembled slightly but she tried to stay calm, “It’s okay to take the money, but can you please give me back my bag? The stuff inside isn’t valuable; it’s just a burden to you.”

The knife-wielding man eyed her suspiciously, his gaze gradually turning sinister.
