Chapter 675: Chapter 684 I Love You, I Love You (5)

She didn’t know yet that he had overheard her conversation with Lu Jiayuan just now, and his heartbeat had not yet returned to normal.

Could it be that he felt he had done something wrong last night, so he was pulling her over to admit his mistake now?

She paused for a few seconds, then extended her arms, gently wrapping them around his robust waist.

Feeling her arms encircle him, Yu Zexiao felt a gentle warmth in his heart. This was the first time he had experienced such a strong heartbeat for her!

In fact, he had always been somewhat confused about his feelings for her.

Initially, Jian Anning was right—he was only infatuated with her because she was the only woman he had ever fully possessed in his twenty-eight years of life.

But gradually, he began to care more about Jian Anning, to like Jian Anning, and to enjoy... entangling with her every night even more.

It wasn’t until the last time when there was a change in his family, and she comforted him, that he suddenly realized that his feelings for her were not just like, but included much more emotion and anticipation!

However, the touching and anticipation had been ground away during the last time he begrudged her "ex-boyfriend". Until later, when the two of them had seemingly resolved their misunderstandings, those feelings deepened another level.

Yet, all of that paled in comparison to the ecstasy he felt upon hearing her admit her feelings for him in front of Lu Jiayuan.

Now, as he truly embraced her, even Yu Zexiao had to acknowledge that there was a strange peace in his heart. And within that calm, as if a storm was brewing, lay turbulent, surging emotions!

It was such a strange feeling, like a wind sweeping through his veins, shaking his whole being, his entire heart quivering! He was delighted, he marveled, and from the depth of his heart, a desire emerged to resonate with her!

Is this love? This must be love! Even if it’s not love, it’s an emotion that runs deeper than ordinary feelings, profound as the ocean!

He suddenly looked at her, eyes filled with tenderness, "I heard everything you two were saying just now."

Jian Anning was startled, "You, you heard our conversation?"

"Mm." Yu Zexiao nodded.

"How much did you hear?"

"Since the beginning..."

If in the beginning he was worried that Jian Anning might be seduced away by someone else—then this time, he had stealthily hidden himself to eavesdrop, figuring that if Jian Anning really had any thoughts about Lu Jiayuan or Situ Xuan, she would have said so on the spot.

But she hadn’t.

Instead, he heard Jian Anning’s confession of her love for him!

Yu Zexiao hugged her tightly, the arm around her waist exerting a slight force, as if he wanted to meld her entirely into his body.

Yet within that roughness, there inevitably lay a hint of tenderness. It made him different from before—when hugging her, he no longer squeezed her waist so hard that she couldn’t breathe, leaving her waist bruised the next day.

Jian Anning clearly felt his emotions.

They were vibrant and intense, yet within the intensity, there was a softness.

This bastard, he had actually hidden away to secretly listen to her talking to someone else!

She wanted to be angry, but then she thought—did this guy also hear what she just said, that she loved him a lot, was willing to be with him, and would not regret it?
