Chapter 471: Chapter 477 What Am I to You? (5)

During this time, she had thought a lot.

She might not really have that kind of loving feeling for Yu Zexiao. Yet, it seemed clear to her—escaping from Yu Zexiao’s control was truly difficult! He always managed to easily grasp the lifeline of her fate, and just as she tried to distance herself, given his despicable nature, he might actually expose their affairs!

Moreover, after spending some time together, she had gradually become accustomed to his messy bad temper, and she had also noticed that, despite his terrible personality and arrogance, he was slowly starting to listen to her advice and gradually change his arrogant ways.

Not to mention—he was the only man who had left an impression on her. Even if she didn’t want to admit it, she couldn’t deny that sometimes, she was almost bewitched by him and came close to falling!

This might not be love, but as the only man who had charmed her emotions, if, just if, he really liked her, even with the slightest bit of affection, she could accept him! She would then let him do as he pleased, whatever he wanted!

But she would definitely not accept an exchange that was only physical, without love!

And Yu Zexiao, sure enough, was stumped by her question!

Although Jian Anning’s question was very direct, indeed, she hit the nail on the head!

There was no mistake, Yu Zexiao cared a lot about her, was jealous for her, was changing for her—but he had never considered taking Jian Anning as his soulmate, the woman to share his life with!

Did he love her? Even he found the question laughable when he posed it to himself! From the very beginning, it was because he found her attractive that he wanted to keep her at all costs! If he were a man completely untouched by emotions, that would be the end of it. But he clearly knew that experience of a stopping heartbeat, as if everything else had vanished! That girl playing the piano in the Golden Hall was like a beam of light, shining into his heart!

That was what being moved felt like, that was perhaps love, right? If he could turn back time, he would rush in without hesitation, confess to that girl, and start everything with her recklessly!

But with Jian Anning? Constant bickering and stumbling, although he also gradually became familiar with her, increasingly filled with interest—but this interest was more of an attraction a man has for a woman, rather than love!

Even now, he still regretted that Jian Anning couldn’t play the piano, didn’t understand rhythm, and couldn’t communicate with him, only restricting him with conventional, harsh professional means, and this could destroy his musical inspiration!

"Do you love me? Do you like me? Do you, even just for me as a person and not my body, feel the slightest bit of affection?"

At this moment, the situation had almost completely reversed! Jian Anning was closing in step by step, while Yu Zexiao, was driven back by her questioning!

Jian Anning watched him retreat continuously, his face, normally proud and haughty, now appeared somewhat flustered by her questioning!

Yu Zexiao stepped back a few paces, somewhat awkwardly halting his steps: "And you call me childish and wilful! How old are you now, still asking questions about ’love or not’? Aren’t you being childish and wilful?"

Seeing his expression, a sudden weight sank in Jian Anning’s heart, but at the same time, a thread of pain began to spread gradually...
