Chapter 447: Chapter 453 Self-affection (5)

Okay, she didn’t put all her eggs in one basket, and it was with great difficulty that she found herself a Young Master Liu. It was supposed to be so romantic, a public confession arranged in front of everyone, yet Situ Xuan harshly slapped her in the face, and then she was even chased out by Director Li!

At this moment, seeing these two outstanding men confronting each other, anyone with eyes could tell it was all for Jian Anning! She immediately let out a cold laugh, "Wow, Assistant Jian is enjoying her food! Eh, it must be nice not to be a star, no need to diet."

Although the roasted whole lamb was delicious, the female stars present dared not eat too much, afraid of gaining weight.

Jian Anning, hearing her words, suddenly didn’t know whether to look down or look up. However, Yu Zexiao and Situ Xuan, who were previously at loggerheads, took a seat. Yu Zexiao even said, "Women should eat more. The parts that need to be plump should be plump. What’s the point of being as thin as a rail?"

It doesn’t feel good to the touch at night either.

With that one sentence, Jiang Xuanqi was at a loss for words. She was indeed on a diet, her figure slender. But because of that, she was famously known in the entertainment circle as the "airport." When walking the red carpet, she had to pad her dress with two invisible bra pads just to barely fill it out.

On the other hand, Situ Xuan, after glancing at Jian Anning, noticed a trace of sauce at the corner of her mouth while she was eating the roast meat and immediately reminded her, "Anning."

When Jian Anning looked up, Situ Xuan pointed at the corner of her mouth. Jian Anning didn’t realize it until Yu Zexiao, who had seen it, berated her without a second thought, "Clumsy woman, you’ve got food all over your mouth."

Before the words finished, he pulled out a tissue and gently wiped away the stain from her corner of her mouth.

As the tissue brushed past her lips, Jian Anning looked up to see Yu Zexiao with a stern face, but his eyes were incredibly gentle.

She suddenly remembered the intimate posture they shared in the cave by the artificial hill earlier and her face flushed slightly.

Such an intimate gesture, and the words he had just spoken—though scolding, they were actually tender—instantly made the tent go silent!

Not only was Jiang Xuanqi left speechless, but even the usually composed Situ Xuan couldn’t help but narrow his eyes!

It seemed he had oversimplified things. Yu Zexiao might be domineering, childish, and immature, but his affection for Jian Anning was genuine and deep!

It seemed, if he wanted to wrestle Jian Anning away from him, he’d have to put in some effort...

--------------------------

Maybe it was because Yu Zexiao had a change of heart. Over the next few days, no matter how Situ Xuan provoked him, he kept thinking, "Hmph, the little assistant doesn’t like you at all, no matter how many times you show up, she only has eyes for me!"

So, in the following days, Situ Xuan continued to present a bouquet of flowers in front of everyone every day. Although it caused a small stir in the crew, the two parties involved—Yu Zexiao and Jian Anning—remained unusually calm.

Of course, even though Yu Zexiao felt that Jian Anning’s "resolution was firm," seeing a large bouquet of delicate fresh flowers arriving earlier than everyone at the crew early in the morning, followed by Situ Xuan’s affectionate face—no matter how he looked at it, it was irritating.

Thus, one morning, Yu Zexiao coquettishly said, "I want to eat the fish soup you cook, with the freshest fish, the sugar must be milk-white. It tastes bad when cooked outside, you go and make it yourself."
