Chapter 354: Chapter 358 Jealousy (1)

How should I put this, this is just one of his peculiar delights. Ever since he found out that Jian Anning was much more interesting than he had anticipated, and that she had mistakenly assumed his last name was Situ. He had always been low-key in his actions because, having experienced many attempts on his life, he chose not to reveal his identity for safety reasons, and he had even used a fake name while in the United States. So, this time he smoothly adopted the surname "Situ".

He also thought, how marvelous would it be if he could woo a woman like Yu Zexiao without revealing his real identity, from a much lower social status?

Besides, if Jian Anning liked him not because he was the head of the Situ Family, but simply as a regular "Mr. Situ," and still chose him in the end, wouldn’t that mean—that she was indeed the kind of woman worth pursuing?

An opportunity with several benefits, Situ Xuan would definitely go for it!

But at this moment, Yu Zexiao was still hopping mad! He had never been in a relationship or coaxed a girl before. To him, it was always others who pampered and spoiled him, while he never gave anyone else the time of day.

He also had a bit of a cleanliness obsession and loathed the idea of someone else coveting his possessions. It had been hard enough to get Jian Anning to nod and agree to a reluctant relationship with him. And yet, just a few days had passed when another man had set his sights on his assistant...

However, what started as a kiss borne out of anger and punishment, took on a different flavor as time passed. Although he was still gripping her shoulders firmly, his grip gradually softened, and the dominance he exerted through his lips slowly diminished, until eventually, the kiss became tender and poignant.

After the kiss, their faces were extremely close, their breaths mingling. He asked in a low voice again, "How exactly do you know that man who just arrived? Hm? Tell me?"

Jian Anning’s breathing also gradually calmed as she took her time to respond, "It’s because you left me alone at the banquet that day, I didn’t have a key card. I met him at the door, and he let me in. The next day, when Ziyin broke up with her ex-boyfriend, and her ex started hitting her, Mr. Situ happened to show up and stopped that scumbag. He helped me twice, but both times he had to leave before I could properly thank him. I didn’t know him before and had no idea who he was. If you’re going to make a fuss again, then I have nothing more to say."

After listening to her, Yu Zexiao frowned. He knew he had been somewhat bad-tempered today, but for some reason, seeing Situ Xuan’s confident and proud face made him feel like he had met a natural enemy, and he instinctively developed a hostile attitude towards him.

"I don’t like him looking at you, nor do I like you getting close to him," he immediately declared.

"Yu Zexiao, you should know he helped me, and we’ve only met twice!" Jian Anning was somewhat speechless. If Yu Zexiao had suspicions about her and Lu Jiayuan, that would make some sense. Although she and Lu Jiayuan hadn’t officially dated, they had shown mutual interest in the past. But with Situ Xuan...they were complete strangers!

Upon hearing Jian Anning say this, Yu Zexiao relaxed a bit. After a while, he said, "Anyway, you are not allowed to like him! And don’t get too close to him! I hate him!"

The number of people you like isn’t that many either. Jian Anning complained to herself.
