Chapter 1034: Chapter 1044: Neighbor (6)
Situ Xuan clearly felt that his asures had just been effective!
He knew that since Jian Anning had chosen to be with Yu Zexiao, she wouldn’t want him to entangle with her anymore.
Alright then, he would do “as she wished” and present himself as an incredibly gracious man. No entanglents and no further confessions, just displaying a very “businesslike” attitude, ceasing any entanglent, rely appearing as friends and colleagues, a peaceful “friendship” that could draw her heart closer!
Sure enough, after hearing Situ Xuan’s “businesslike” words, Yu Zexiao still maintained a hostile attitude towards him, while Jian Anning felt a bit surprised. However, it was just surprise, nothing more. She understood that “a rumored lover of one’s girlfriend” is traditionally not a pleasing role.
When Jian Anning called Yu Zexiao, he realized that he had just acted a bit aggressive towards Situ Xuan — but honestly, he refused to believe that the once passionately dedicated Situ Xuan, who vowed such eternal words, could have no intentions towards Jian Anning!
Although he was a little naive in social matters, his mind was undoubtedly sharp! He could notice that hidden trace of loss and madness in Situ Xuan’s eyes!
He was rely concealing his sharpness as a strategy to deceive the innocent little assistant!
Only, his intensely rejecting manner of refusing Situ Xuan, to be honest — made him appear irrational, like he was being unreasonable.
Hong Minjun promptly intervened to ease the situation: “Hahaha, well then, Zexiao, we won’t disturb your rest any longer. After working for so long, have a good rest, get so sleep, and discuss work matters tomorrow.”
Saying this, she signaled to Jian Anning with a glance.
Jian Anning also felt a bit of a headache. She could only tug on Yu Zexiao’s arm and say graciously to the three outside: “Yes, everyone has traveled from afar and has to tidy up the house. It’s surely busy today. Well then, when you co over tomorrow, I’ll properly entertain you.”
Nie Anni casually said goodbye, while Situ Xuan — he wanted to show his forthright emotions, as if he had now let go of his deep feelings for Jian Anning and just wanted to be good friends with her. Hearing this, he smiled slightly: “Okay. You and Zero have a good rest. I’m staying in the villa right next to yours, so if there’s anything, feel free to reach out to anyti.”
After saying this, he did not linger and, leading the way, took long strides and left the yard.
As Situ Xuan turned away, Yu Zexiao, who had been tense, imdiately relaxed. Jian Anning let out a sigh of relief and smiled at Hong Minjun and Nie Anni, who were about to leave: “Sorry about that. When you co by tomorrow, I’ll treat you to tea.”
Hong Minjun naturally laughed it off and made jokes as she prepared to leave. Nie Anni, on the other hand, took a couple of extra glances, but didn’t say much, politely nodded to Jian Anning, and then left the room.
From behind ca Yu Zexiao’s quiet complaint: “Why bother saying so much nonsense to them? I just don’t like them coming to my house.”
Jian Anning also knew Yu Zexiao’s clean-freak personality. Not only did he naturally dislike Nie Anni and Situ Xuan, but with his neat-freak nature, he was not soone keen on inviting people into his ho.
