Chapter 765: Chapter 774 Confrontation (3)
Having chosen Yu Zexiao, she never thought to hide it from Situ Xuan. In fact, if Yu Zexiao hadn’t pulled her away first last night, she might have co clean with Situ Xuan already.
People who are married can get divorced, those in love can break up. Besides, she and Situ Xuan were not even in a relationship—not even like how things were with Lu Jiayuan initially. After all, Lu Jiayuan had been ambiguous with both her and Cheng Tingting, whereas she had never been with Situ Xuan, at most she had said she would give him a chance.
She kept his kindness in her heart. She didn’t want to listen to Lu Jiayuan speak ill of him. But between Yu Zexiao and him, if she had to choose one, she would, without hesitation, choose Yu Zexiao!
With that thought in mind, she nodded to Situ Xuan in the car, “William.”
Her tone was amiable, yet it carried a hint of subtle estrangent.
It seed as if their relationship had reverted to one of courteous detachnt.
However, Yu Zexiao was quite displeased with Jian Anning greeting Situ Xuan!
Damn, if he greeted soone, it was to show off; what was she aiming for with her greeting!
Situ Xuan in the car, upon hearing her voice, felt his heart suddenly clench.
He couldn’t understand why, but in his eyes, his world, he had utterly forgotten Yu Zexiao beside him glaring in anger, and he had forgotten Ling Yichuan, who stood on the sideline, ready to rush over and aid his friend at any sign of trouble.
—In his eyes, there was only her!
He slowly opened the car door and stepped out, feeling as if just by standing here and watching her, it seed they were separated by an unbridgeable distance, like mountains and seas laid between them!
“Anning, Anning…”
Just calling her na seed to drain his strength, leaving him feeling like he was about to be bowed down by the discomfort pervading his entire body.
Jian Anning heard his voice; how could she not discern the sourness and pain in his heart?
Situ Xuan, who was always composed, who always carried himself with poise, who was always powerful and commanding—yet now, looking at her, his eyes reflected shock and distress. Had she not seen it for herself, she would have found it hard to believe that the man wearing such a look of anguish and loss could be Situ Xuan!
But the problem was, she really couldn’t reciprocate!
Her whole being, her entire heart was occupied by the scoundrel beside her. Situ Xuan was so outstanding, so gentle—surely, there would be other won better suited for him than she, won who could match him better, right?
The two of them stood silently, neither knowing what to say, until Yu Zexiao beca angry.
Damn it, he was right there; what were these two doing? Exchanging tender glances or sharing their hearts’ secrets?
One was calling out affectionately, and the other responding gently—damn, did they think he was dead? He was still standing right there, watching!
Just as Yu Zexiao was about to speak, Jian Anning beat him to it, “Zexiao, may I have a word with William?”
Yu Zexiao: “!!!!”
He was about to explode in rage but was stopped by Jian Anning catching his arm, her fingertips pressing slightly. Her expression was exceedingly calm, “It’s just a few words.”
This was her own matter; she should clarify things with Situ Xuan. Instead of leaving things unsettled like this.
