Chapter 477: Chapter 483 Anxiety Over Gain and Loss (5)

If it was love, it clearly wasn’t. Yet, she wasn’t completely without weight in his heart.

Even he hadn’t realized that, imperceptibly, he had silently moved himself into an irreplaceable position in her life! In the beginning, his attraction to her was because she was the only woman whose presence—at least physically—he didn’t find repulsive. But as time passed, he grew accustomed to arguing with her, to her being by his side, to every piece of advice she gave......

Maybe he hadn’t thought it through much, hadn’t planned the future as typical lovers do, but, he had gradually come to consider himself "her man." He would slowly respect her habits, would take her advice and work seriously, would get jealous when provoked by Situ Xuan, and when he saw her leave, when he saw such disappointment in her eyes, his heart would sour......

He couldn’t even understand what this feeling was. It wasn’t love, but it was also an indescribable, mysterious sentiment that fermented in his heart, causing turmoil, unbearably uncomfortable!

But, was this love? If it was, then what he had once experienced, the kind of emotion that made even breathing stop, the kind for which he’d even dared defy the path laid out by his father for that beauty’s sake—that compared to his relationship with Jian Anning, really couldn’t be considered liking, let alone love.

However, she had left. It had been so long, where had she gone? As a woman alone and unfamiliar with Shangcheng, what if she was deceived by bad people?

He grew restless, was just about to make a call, when a call came in automatically. Yu Zexiao picked up without looking, very happily, "Hello?"

The voice on the other end was Shen Lanxiao: "Xingxing, where have you run off to? Anning told me, you still have scenes to shoot tonight, hurry back!"

"Mom, is she......is she there?" Upon hearing Shen Lanxiao’s voice, he immediately asked.

"Her? Are you talking about Anning? She hasn’t come back yet." Shen Lanxiao replied immediately, "Xingxing, you are a man, and a man should take some responsibility! No matter what happened between you, you shouldn’t have let Anning get angry! Go find her and bring her back, and quickly!"

"Mom, I’m outside, I’ll talk to you later." Yu Zexiao hung up the phone, his eyes narrowed slightly, as he silently took a sip of alcohol.

A few buddies, rarely seeing him this silent—even when he’d come before to complain about Situ Xuan bothering Jian Anning, he hadn’t been this quiet. Ling Yichuan couldn’t hold back any longer and came over to ask: "Xingxing, what’s wrong? If there’s something on your mind, just say it! Why keep it bottled up?"

Yu Zexiao suddenly turned his head, his gaze hazy as he looked over to Ling Yichuan: "Yichuan, do you think you’re responsible for all the women by your side?"

Ling Yichuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed it off: "How’s that possible? You know our background, there are bound to be women around us! If we had to take responsibility for each woman, how many times would I have to get married in a year?"

Mo Siyu also laughed: "Exactly! Before getting married, you can play however you want—of course, if you’re going to play, you should find the kind of woman who can handle it. Women are born into two kinds—one is just for fun, a mutual agreement, you can send them off with some money. That kind, you can enjoy to the fullest!"
