Chapter 1773: Chapter 1773 - What a Coincidence, My Parents Hate Me, Too

“Who are you?” An Zhehui was furious. “This is our family’s matter, stay out of it. I’m teaching my daughter a lesson, get out of my way.”

Xu Baohan pursed his lips, his gaze was so dark and deep.

At this moment, An Lan suddenly appeared beside him, “Dad, I’ve never needed you to teach me a lesson. I’ve always been upright, I’ve earned every single cent fair and square. I’ve never stolen or robbed, I’ve also never been a mistress. The only regret I have is that when An Ning was studying, I was too busy with my work and didn’t spare any time to guide her how to distinguish right from wrong. This is my only mistake. I’ll do what I should do for An Ning as her sister. I don’t need you to stand on the moral high ground and criticize me. I won’t be seeing An Ning today, Chief Judge Xu, let’s go.”

After saying that, she grabbed her bag and left without looking back.

“Get lost, we don’t want a daughter like you. It’s so embarrassing,” Ji Qian cursed as she pointed at her back.

Xu Baohan frowned, his thin lips moving slightly. “I didn’t expect An Lan to have parents like you two.”

After that, he turned and followed.

...

An Lan walked downstairs quickly. With every step she took, her heart ached.

Her eyes were so sour that something seemed to be gushing out of them.

She resisted the urge to cry. Xu Baohan was following behind her.

After walking for nearly three minutes, An Lan stopped and turned around abruptly.

Xu Baohan’s long legs followed her closely. He couldn’t stop himself in time and his chest hit her nose bridge.

An Lan’s nose and eyes were so sore from the impact that tears started flowing out of her eyes.

Xu Baohan was at a loss. It had been a long time since he had seen a woman cry in front of him.

Especially since An Lan’s image had always been like a diamond in his heart.

He felt that the word “cry” had nothing to do with her.

But now, she was really crying. Her dark eyes were glistening with tears, her long eyelashes were stained with water, and her eyes were red and moist. She was indescribably delicate and moving, making him feel the urge to hug her and protect her.

“Lawyer An...” Xu Baohan’s lips were dry and nervous. “If you want to cry, just cry. It’s not a pleasant thing to fight with your parents.”

An Lan raised her head and stared at him with her big watery eyes, her throat slightly hoarse. “Chief Judge Xu, do you know that it was your chest that hit my nose, causing me to cry because of the pain?”

“Is that so?” Xu Baohan was stunned. “Would it hurt that much if I hit your nose?”

“If you don’t believe, I will punch you in the nose right now.” An Lan said unhappily.

Xu Baohan took a step back defensively, “No.”

An Lan: “...”

She was just joking. She wouldn’t dare to hit a judge even if she had ten times the courage to do so.

“Forget it, it’s fine now.” An Lan opened her wallet and took out a tissue to wipe the tears on her face. The white tissue made the fingerprints on her face even more obvious.

Xu Baohan’s sharp eyes narrowed.

“Oh yes, I have to thank you no matter what.” An Lan raised her face. “But... don’t you hate me? My parents hate me so much.”

Xu Baohan was silent for a moment before he said, “What a coincidence, my parents hate me, too.”

“...”

The air was silent for a while before An Lan couldn’t help laughing. Her eyes were curved. “Then wouldn’t we be the same?”
