The King’s Enchanting
Chapter 162 - 162 166 Her Man 2

162: Chapter 166: Her Man (2) 162: Chapter 166: Her Man (2) Before she could speak, Jiang Xuanqi preempted her, her voice soft and delicate, “Zexiao, didn’t I tell you?

Jian Anning is not a good woman!

From the very first day JASON arrived, she took a liking to him!

Otherwise, why would JASON help her?

She is your assistant and now fully in charge of arranging your schedule.

What if she betrays you…”

As she spoke, her sharp gaze triumphantly fixed on the two inside the room!

In this period, perhaps because she had previously experienced Yu Zexiao’s defense of Jian Anning, she didn’t dare to mess with Jian Anning, at least not openly.

—It wasn’t because she feared Yu Zexiao, but rather she wanted to make a good impression on him.

After all, she still liked Yu Zexiao and hoped to be with him.

Naturally, she didn’t want to appear as a scheming and malicious woman in the eyes of the man she loved.

However, being a woman, she naturally had a finer intuition for certain things compared to the emotionally obtuse Yu Zexiao.

She had also noticed that ever since Lu Jiayuan joined the crew, he kept glancing in Jian Anning’s direction!

A glance once or twice could be accidental.

But she noticed that every time Jian Anning arrived on set, Lu Jiayuan’s gaze would involuntarily fall on her!

Of course, it wasn’t as if he was staring at her all the time.

But the number of times he paid attention to her was definitely not small!

If it weren’t for her dislike of Jian Anning and her constant attempts to trip her up, Jiang Xuanqi might not have noticed that Lu Jiayuan was watching her!

Even though Lu Jiayuan hadn’t made any contact with Jian Anning during his days on set, his eyes definitely couldn’t lie!

Love at first sight?

That was laughable.

Jiang Xuanqi considered herself a hundred times better than Jian Anning, prettier, with a better figure (she never compared directly since Jian Anning always wore loose, casual clothes), more elegant (again, self-proclaimed), wealthier, and of higher status.

Even if it was love at first sight, it surely would be for someone like her!

Old acquaintances?

If the two really knew each other, there was no need to pretend to be complete strangers.

Shouldn’t they at least greet each other when they meet?

However, the two behaved as if they had never seen each other before.

Plus, it seemed there was no animosity between them—because in Lu Jiayuan’s eyes, she could see no trace of hatred for Jian Anning, but rather—a hint of reminiscence?

This was quite inappropriate.

Logically, even if these two knew each other, even as mere acquaintances, they shouldn’t be this distant.

Yet, there was some odd kind of connection between them.

Jiang Xuanqi couldn’t make heads or tails of their relationship.

And today, it just so happened that on her way back from the restroom, when she was about to turn the corner, she overheard the conversation between Jian Anning and Lu Jiayuan.

She knew that Lu Jiayuan had stopped Jian Anning, and that the two truly knew each other.

So, although it seemed like there was nobody in the corridor, she knew that Lu Jiayuan and Jian Anning had gone to his dressing room!

At the same time, Jiang Xuanqi was also aware that Yu Zexiao never liked Lu Jiayuan.

If Jian Anning had had any sort of relationship with Lu Jiayuan and she informed Yu Zexiao, wouldn’t Yu Zexiao come to despise Jian Anning?

Then she could openly seek her revenge!
