Chapter 500: Chapter 506: Guarding the Heart (4)

Even if it wasn’t love yet, as long as he had breached a woman’s psychological defenses, wouldn’t getting her heart afterward be as easy as reaching into a bag to retrieve something?

Especially since he could feel that Yu Zexiao actually cared a lot about her.

When the day came that Jian Anning truly was pursued by him and brought to his side, he really wanted to see what kind of expression Yu Zexiao would have.

It would certainly be, exceedingly wonderful.

"Anning, it’s really hard to get a cab here, let me drive you back," Situ Xuan stepped forward, his expression very gentle.

"No, thank you," Jian Anning said, "I’ll take the set’s shuttle back in a bit."

Right now, she really didn’t want to incite Yu Zexiao any further. If Yu Zexiao found out that she had come back with Situ Xuan, who knew what kind of scene he would make!

"This......" Situ Xuan had not expected this at all; he thought that after he had moved Jian Anning earlier, he could naturally progress further.

He didn’t expect her to recover her senses so quickly!

But the look in her eyes when she faced him was full of gratitude, gentle and pure. It didn’t seem like she intentionally wanted to distance herself from him.

"Thank you for today. Goodbye!"

Situ Xuan watched her quickly head towards the ready-to-depart shuttle, her slender figure blending into the night.

Unconsciously, his smile grew wider.

This time, the smile on his face no longer carried any sense of triumph over Yu Zexiao. Instead, it was filled with admiration.

If she could be seduced by him so easily, then she wouldn’t be worth all the effort he had put in!

Better this way, when her love for Yu Zexiao was worn down bit by bit, she would be with him without any reluctance!

Just then, as Jian Anning had just left, he saw a shiny hairpin on the ground.

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

Early the next morning.

"Aunt Shen, good morning," Jian Anning had gotten up very early, prepared a table of breakfast, and set out the bowls and chopsticks.

"Xingxing, after you’ve eaten, get ready quickly because your Aunt Qiu is going to take you to meet that girl," Lanxiao told him as soon as he walked out the door, reminding him of the dispiriting reality that he had arranged a matchmaking date.

He didn’t want to go on the date—he had only arranged it to spite Jian Anning. But seeing her getting up early, apparently unaffected at all, made his heart burn even more.

Last night, after coming back first, he didn’t rush home. Instead, he waited outside the hotel entrance. If Jian Anning had come back in Situ Xuan’s car, he would made her regret it!

But seeing her return alone by taking the set’s shuttle bus eased his heart inexplicably.

As soon as he heard his mother finishing her sentence, his gaze immediately swept over Jian Anning. Lanxiao’s voice wasn’t too low; she must have heard it. Yet at that moment, her expression was too calm, seemingly unaffected.

Just when Yu Zexiao was feeling stifled, Jian Anning’s cellphone rang. She tidied up the table, pulled out her phone, and when she saw the name bouncing on the screen, the previously expressionless face now had a faint smile, "William——"

Yu Zexiao was so choked up he almost spat blood.
