Chapter 358: Chapter 362 Jealousy (5)

And before him, several empty bottles were already laid out. This guy only ever drank his sorrows away unconsciously when he was "emotionally confused".

A call came in, and Yu Zexiao picked it up to see it was from Jian Anning. He frowned, hung up the phone without a word, his expression even gloomier.

The three brothers looked at each other, all speechless. After a while, Mo Siyu asked again, "What did you say to her? And how did she agree?"

They all felt that the little assistant was so earnest, it was hard to believe she could end up with someone as unreliable as Yu Zexiao, and to have agreed so quickly at that!

Although these guys hadn’t colluded, none of them believed Yu Zexiao could have won over the assistant so fast...

"She agreed," he said, "as long as we set some ’rules of companionship,’ she could stay by my side from now on!"

All were astonished and immediately asked, "What are the ’rules of companionship’?"

Yu Zexiao thought for a while, then finally said after a long pause, "She made me promise that as long as I don’t lose my temper, as long as I don’t share our personal matters with the media, as long as... as long as..."

"As long as what?" Ling Yichuan, Mo Siyu, and Qin Xian looked at each other, suddenly intrigued, and pressed him for an answer.

Yu Zexiao might have been quite drunk, but why would he expose his embarrassing moments? He pressed his lips together, poured all the remaining liquor from the bottle into his glass, gulped it down in one go, and shook the bottle—it was empty. Squinting through drunk eyes, he pressed the call button.

Soon, the waiter entered the room, "May I help you with anything?"

Yu Zexiao lifted the bottle, his eyes defiant, "Bring all the liquor from your store in here!"

The waiter stood dumbfounded, but Ling Yichuan quickly stepped forward to hold him back, "Don’t listen to him, just bring in one more bottle of alcohol."

The waiter left the private room, and before Ling Yichuan could ask, Yu Zexiao twirled the empty glass in his hand. No more liquor was left in the glass, just chunks of un-melted ice that, with his spinning, clinked against each other inside the glass, making crisp sounds like crystal jade: "Even though she agreed to be with me, today, when that guy showed up, she actually spoke up for him! And earlier with Lu Jiayuan, that was one thing, but that guy, that guy..."

"Which guy?" Ling Yichuan and the others were totally confused. Yu Zexiao used to scoff and mock them when they were in relationships. Now it’s his turn, isn’t it!

To be honest, a woman like Jian Anning, if she ended up with men who played the field like them, was sure to be an easy catch! She was innocent, stubborn, and very earnest. It was obvious that she had little experience with love.

Pushkin once said, "There is nothing more gratifying than winning the love of a ji-woman." And in "The Lady of the Camellias," it is also written, "To truly be loved by a ji-woman is a victory extremely rare. Their rou have corrupted their souls, passion has scathed their hearts, and a debauched life has hardened them. They are weary of hearing what others say to them and familiar with the tactics others use. Even if they once possessed love, they have already sold it."
