Chapter 118 - 118 122 The Past Present 6

118: Chapter 122: The Past, Present (6) 118: Chapter 122: The Past, Present (6) As he was leaving, his gaze slowly fell upon Jian Anning, who had returned to Yu Zexiao’s side.

The light in his eyes flickered abruptly.

He quickly adjusted himself and maintained a gentle smile, following everyone else out the door.

———————

Jian Anning didn’t look at him anymore and withdrew her gaze.

Next to her, Yu Zexiao was obviously a bit unhappy.

Although it was just a brief encounter, he didn’t quite like someone with a personality like Lu Jiayuan’s.

He always felt that behind their smiling faces, these people were plotting something, which he found extremely distasteful.

Furthermore…

He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Jian Anning seemed to know this man.

After living with Jian Anning for a while, he had come to understand her personality.

Jian Anning was a very detached person, with strong self-control.

Under normal circumstances, she was easy to get along with, undisturbed by external joy or sorrow.

—Of course, that didn’t include Jiang Xuanqi’s infuriating behavior, which was not considered normal.

And the only man she was ever moved by was naturally this young master here!

—Derived from Yu Zexiao’s self-flattering imagination

But, when she faced Lu Jiayuan just now, she seemed a bit strange.

To say she knew him, it didn’t seem entirely right, yet when Lu Jiayuan’s gaze moved away, her own gaze followed involuntarily…

At this moment, Yu Zexiao didn’t know that Lu Jiayuan and she were at least schoolmates.

He was just thinking, maybe this man had acted in some American TV series, and possibly Jian Anning had watched it and was deeply impressed by it, so she recognized this man, right?

Then, was she also a fan of Lu Jiayuan?

The thought alone disturbed Yu Zexiao immensely.

How could the assistant of Yu Zexiao be someone else’s fan?

What was so special about this Lu Jiayuan?

As soon as he entered the set, everyone revolved around him, everyone spoke in his favor!

And what’s most important, even the little assistant following him might be a Lu Jiayuan fan, how could this be!

Was Lu Jiayuan handsomer than he was?

Did he sing better than him?

Did his family have more money?

Did he have the same air of quality, the same status?

He could ignore those who just went with the flow in the studio, but Jian Anning, who was at least regarded as a woman following him, if she was also fooled by Lu Jiayuan’s pretentiousness, it would be incredibly aggravating!

“Do you, do you know Lu Jiayuan?” he asked abruptly, turning around with a rough tone, his gaze intensely fixed on her.

The straightforward, intense look in his eyes startled Jian Anning!

She almost screamed in shock!

Could it be that Yu Zexiao had noticed something between her and Lu Jiayuan?

For a moment, her mind was flooded with tumultuous thoughts!

No, it couldn’t be possible.

She might doubt others, but could Yu Zexiao, who was such an emotionally clueless fool, have noticed something?

What a joke!

With that thought, she calmed down, lowered her head, and slowly replied, “No, how could I?

It’s because I knew he seemed to have performed in the American series ‘Eternal Heart,’ which is quite famous.

But I haven’t watched a single episode, so I don’t know if it’s really any good.”

Hearing her answer, full of holes and with an evasive look, Yu Zexiao actually nodded with satisfaction!
