499: Chapter 505: Guarding the Heart (3) 499: Chapter 505: Guarding the Heart (3) Just like now, after they had spoken at the door for a while, many peculiar glances swept their way.
Situ Xuan noticed her hesitation and imdiately said, “Anning, I can’t bear to see you mistreated by Yu Zexiao.
I know you have him in your heart.”
Jian Anning’s eyes widened, her first instinct wasn’t to look at him but to look around!
To see if anyone was eavesdropping!
If word got out that she had an affair with the superstar idol, would the dia ambush her at her door the next day?
Only when she realized no one was nearby did she look back, a hint of panic in her eyes as she stamred, “You, how could you…”
Although within the crew, her relationship with Yu Zexiao seed to be no secret anymore, after all, nobody had ever spoken so bluntly and clearly about it.
“Of course, I pay attention to everything about you,” Situ Xuan said.
“Don’t worry, I’m not soone who’s unreasonable.
I just, I can’t stand the way Yu Zexiao treats you.”
His tone was too gentle, like the soft moonlight, so easily blending into the world around him.
Even though he hadn’t confessed in words, his every sentence brimd with affection, and with just a glance, one could see the shimr in his eyes.
Situ Xuan was always such a charming man.
Especially when compared with Yu Zexiao, it only highlighted his maturity and considerateness even more.
“Anning, you deserve better.” He didn’t need to say much, but just one look from him made her feel overwheld with sincerity.
This was a feeling she hadn’t experienced for many years, as if, just like when her father was alive, she was fully cherished and protected.
Since the death of her father and grandparents, her life had changed drastically.
No one had solely focused on taking care of her, cherishing her, and being considerate of her.
She had gradually forgotten what it felt like to be pampered, especially since the Cheng Family had used her marriage as a condition, which didn’t allow her to feel cared for or loved.
It could be said that her aloof and stubborn personality was also related to her past experiences.
However, Situ Xuan’s gaze at that mont was too gentle, his expression too earnest, and there was a convincing aura about him.
It seed he needed to do nothing for her to feel that she too was considered and liked by soone.
If in the beginning, her reaction to Situ Xuan’s affection was just surprise, now, she was truly touched.
No woman could resist such a domineering yet accommodating pursuit.
Even if Jian Anning didn’t love Situ Xuan at the mont, she was moved by his considerate attitude.
“William, why do you…” In fact, she had always been a bit baffled.
She certainly wasn’t the ravishing Helen of Troy, and on top of that, she had a rather stubborn personality.
Moreover, she was just an ordinary assistant at the mont, and Situ Xuan was entirely unaware of her family’s background!
“Because it’s you.” Situ Xuan smiled, the warmth spreading from the corner of his lips to the depth of his eyes.
His grey-blue eyes, under the illumination of the night streetlights, seed sparkling and translucent, almost clear.
Situ Xuan finally saw a flash of light in her eyes, though subtle, it was more gentle than before.
With his years of experience, he naturally knew that Jian Anning’s guard toward him had completely dropped!
