Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sophie received an invitation to return to the country that night, and Annie herself called to ask her to return for the annual National. She didn’t say a word about her maternal grandfather’s death.

Sophie hung up the phone and sighed. “It looks like they’re really going to let the double pretend to be Grandfather.”

Gao Tian walked over to hug his wife, wanting to comfort her in this way.

Fortunately, Sophie already knew what kind of person her mother was. She was not too sad about the fact that she only cared about power. She packed her luggage as quickly as possible.

“Aren’t you bringing me and the child?” Gao Tian asked when he saw that his wife was only packing her luggage.

Sophie shook her head. “We don’t know what’s going on yet. If we go together, I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect you.”

“Then the child and I will wait for you to come back.” Gao Tian held his wife’s hand.

He did not ask to go together. He understood that what was about to happen would be very dangerous. If he became the enemy’s bargaining chip, it would hurt his wife.

Gao Jing couldn’t bear to part with his mother. He hugged her and didn’t let go. “Mom, when are you coming back?”

Sophie stroked his head. “Mom’s going to fight the monster. She’ll be back when she defeats it.”

Just as everything was about ready, Jiang An received an invitation.

It was from the royal family of Country F. They said that they were inviting her to attend the National Day ceremony.

Jiang An smiled. “What kind of logic is that to invite a Chinese person to Country F’s National Day?”

No matter how she thought about it, this did not make sense. Sophie looked at the invitation letter again and again, confirming that it was indeed from the royal family. There were also some royal symbols on it.

“That’s strange. I’ve never heard of such a thing.” Sophie was puzzled.

Zou Bai said, “It’s not hard to understand. With An’an’s help, your prestige is rising day by day. Naturally, they want to find an opportunity to rope An’an in.”

Now, in order to fight for the throne, these people were just short of directly attacking. Regardless of whether this matter was reasonable or not, the most important thing was to find a reason to invite them over.

“Then An’an shouldn’t go. They might do something to harm you.” Sophie was very worried.

Jiang An shook his head. “I have to go so that I can see what they want to do. However, one invitation is not enough. The royal family of Country F has to come forward and officially invite me.”

After all, Jiang An was Chinese. There was no reason for her to appear at the National Day ceremony of another country. She would definitely be criticized.

But if it was an official invitation from the royal family, it was to enhance the friendship between the two countries. No one could say that she was wrong.

This request was quickly conveyed back to Sophie. According to her, Jiang An did not really want to go, but because of their friendship, if they could not give an official invitation, she would definitely not come.

This made the royal family anxious. They still wanted to pull Jiang An to their side. If she didn’t come, they wouldn’t have a chance.

They completed the procedures as quickly as possible, and Country F officially issued an invitation. Only then did Jiang An take her time to reply, indicating that she would attend for the sake of the friendship between the two countries.

Since Jiang An had decided to go, she started packing up the things she wanted to bring over. Zou Bai was a little worried about her, so he asked Zou Er to pick some secret guards to follow her. Moreover, there were also hidden guards from the Zou family in Country F. They cooperated well to protect Jiang An.

“Alright, you don’t have to be so worried. I’ll go over with great fanfare. No matter what, they won’t dare to let anything happen to me. That would be a diplomatic accident,” Jiang An comforted Zou Bai.

Zou Bai had always been confident in his actions, but when he was facing Jiang An, he subconsciously worried that he would miss something.

He was not afraid of any failure, but he was always worried about Jiang An.

Of course, Jiang An knew that he was like this because he loved her. She quickly put down what she was doing and ran over to hug him. “I’ll be back in a few days. I’ll call you every day.”

Zou Bai hugged her tightly. After a while, he suddenly said, “I want to go with you.”

“How can that be? You can’t just go over with your status,” Jiang An retorted subconsciously.

After all, Zou Bai was the head of the Zou family and the head of the four aristocratic families in Beijing. It was not a matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries to attend the National Day Ceremony of another country. Some people would suspect that China was going to interfere in Country F’s internal affairs, and the Chinese government would not approve it.

Of course, Zou Bai understood this, but it was absolutely impossible for him to watch Jiang An go alone.

“Don’t worry, I’ll get someone to disguise themselves as me and stay behind to guard the Zou Family. Then, I’ll follow you as someone else,” Zou Bai said..
