Chapter 627: Chapter 636: Love and Jealousy (6)

Seeing his body tremble slightly, she then gently said, "Then I’m leaving, you rest well."

"Mmh," Yu Zexiao lowered his head, masking the emotions stirring within him— for a moment, the warmth in his heart almost overwhelmed the conflict inside. He had wanted to ask her to stay. Why was he even pretending?

Jian Anning noticed his demeanor, and a hint of strangeness flashed through her mind, but she didn’t think too much about it and opened the door to leave, "I’m going now!"

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

Right as the door opened, a figure almost stumbled in. She looked up and saw that the person had likely been eavesdropping while leaning against the wall! With the door now open, the person immediately fell in, and it was none other than Jiang Xuanqi!

Jian Anning was speechless; she had forgotten that this was the communal dormitory! Yu Zexiao’s next-door neighbors were, unfortunately, Jiang Xuanqi and Lu Jiayuan! Of course, not far away, several key members of the production crew also lived here.

This place wasn’t like a hotel room; the soundproofing was really subpar. Thankfully, they hadn’t made much noise inside, otherwise, they might have drawn a spectacle!

Facing Jiang Xuanqi, Jian Anning felt no pressure at all. She said irritably, "Why don’t you go back to your room and sleep instead of exercising here in the middle of the night?"

"You!——" If it weren’t for the fact that Jiang Xuanqi’s attempts to target Jian Anning had backfired miserably on several occasions, she would have loved to teach this audacious little assistant a lesson!

Jiang Xuanqi looked her up and down coldly and spoke first, "Wow, what’s this? You even changed your clothes!"

Her eyes were keen, ignoring everything else and honing in on the clothing! Good thing nothing happened between them, or with Jiang Xuanqi’s attitude, she would have broadcast it for the whole world to know!

Before Jian Anning could respond, Yu Zexiao was already unhappy next to her, "Spying outside my room in the dead of night, and you think you have the right to be here? Get lost!"

His woman was his alone to tease. Who did Jiang Xuanqi think she was, daring to criticize her?

He had been in a bad mood all day and couldn’t vent his anger on Jian Anning, but Jiang Xuanqi showing up was like an ideal punching bag. If not her, then who?

Jiang Xuanqi had not anticipated Yu Zexiao to confront her so bluntly. She was so brazen because previously, no matter how she mistreated Jian Anning, even if Yu Zexiao helped, he never reprimanded her to her face! When people from neighboring rooms heard the commotion, they began opening their doors and peeking out to see what was happening. Yu Zexiao’s rebuke made many of them open a crack to stealthily watch the scene.

Only Lu Jiayuan, who lived next door, fearing that Jian Anning would be at a disadvantage, opened his door.

Jiang Xuanqi’s face turned beet red with embarrassment! She had never been publicly ridiculed like this! It was as if someone had viciously slapped her face, leaving a burning shame!

"You, you’re together in the middle of the night, with filming tomorrow, and you think you’re justified!" She spoke out of turn, flustered because since being promoted by Starlight Entertainment, no one had ever scolded her so directly. In that moment, without thought, the words just spilled out.
