Chapter 729: Chapter 729: Xiao An Is About to Return to China

After Gu Jin’s words, there was silence on the other end of the phone.

Soon, she heard the change in the boy’s breathing.

This discovery made Gu Jin’s eyes curve slightly, the brat always flirts verbally.

Finally, she got back at him once.

This past year, she and An Mingji had few opportunities to meet, and each time he found time to come back, it was also a rushed departure.

The year-long period had ended.

But An Mingji still could not return to the country.

It had been nearly four months since they last met.

After so long, she really missed him.

An Feng’s health was declining, and although the Darwin Family had been fully entrusted to An Mingji.

But the vast underground kingdom had a new leader, involving Italy’s Royal Family and the interests of various forces, he was not having an easy time.

"I’ll return to the country in a month, things here are almost settled."

An Mingji suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" Gu Jin uttered a puzzled sound.

Hearing that An Mingji was coming back, she involuntarily stood up straight: "You’re coming back?"

"Yes, things are almost resolved, I don’t need to keep an eye on them all the time, next month I can return to the country."

The boy’s voice was joyful, mingled with laughter and anticipation.

Gu Jin: "What about the old lady?"

"Auntie will also return with me, she said she has drifted outside for most of her life and wants to return to her homeland; Hua Country is her home." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Speaking of An Feng, An Mingji’s voice sank, his emotions obviously low.

An Feng’s body had reached its limit.

This past year, Gu Jin had not failed to let An Mingji bring some elixirs to prolong life, but alas, life and death are fated.

Her body could not hold on any longer.

The call was still connected, yet both fell into silence.

It was finally An Mingji who changed the topic: "Ah Jin, I want to see you."

"How?" Gu Jin asked casually.

"We can video call."

Because of the anticipation in the young man’s words, Gu Jin walked out of the bedroom and headed to the study room.

She turned on the study room’s light, went to the desk, and turned on the computer, logging into her NS account.

Found An Mingji in her friends list, opened the interface.

"I’ll connect with you now, hanging up."

"Alright!"

When the call ended, Gu Jin clicked the mouse and began a video call with An Mingji far away nearly ten thousand kilometers.

The other party quickly answered.

In the video, the first to catch Gu Jin’s eyes was not An Mingji but the woman standing beside him.

The woman had wine-red hair, dressed sexily, with a captivating figure, clearly a rare beauty.

It was not the first time Gu Jin saw her.

But this time, she noticed that the woman was standing very close to An Mingji.

When she was video calling with An Mingji, the woman appeared in her sight before An did.

Although the woman moved quickly, Gu Jin still caught that at the moment the video connected, her hand was on An Mingji, in her final movement, she was touching An’s arm.

Gu Jin saw all this, the joy from An Mingji’s return faded quite a bit.

"Ah Jin sister!"

When An Mingji saw Gu Jin at that moment, he happily called out to her.

His voice, unlike the deepness in the phone call, was rather a bit lazy and luxurious, like celestial music.

Gu Jin observed the increasingly mature boy in the video this past year, an undercurrent of unrecognized loneliness flashed in her eyes.

Little An was becoming more like a mature man, no longer needing to be sheltered by her.

With his current capabilities, he could stand alone and command any situation.

He held great power, the life and death of others were at his command with a single word.
