Chapter 501 - 507: Guarding the Heart (5)
His eyes darkly watched Jian Anning’s light steps towards the window, seemingly afraid of a poor signal and fearful of the phone call being disturbed. It’s as though he could tell from the way her hair fluttered in the wind that she seemed in a good mood.
Her good mood meant a bad one for him. Especially knowing that the other side of the call was Situ Xuan, he bit into a large piece of toast and chewed furiously in his mouth, wishing he could bite Situ Xuan like the toast!
Moreover, he felt distracted—Shen Lanxiao was talking to him on the side, but he heard none of it, instead, he strained his ears trying desperately to discern what Jian Anning and Situ Xuan were talking about. However, since Jian Anning didn’t put her phone on speaker, he could only make out snippets of the conversation with his keen hearing.
Situ Xuan was talking about the hairpin incident from last night.
Last night, when Jian Anning left, that was when he saw the hairpin. His first thought was that he now had the chance to see Jian Anning again today.
In theory, the battle he fought yesterday was absolutely exquisite, not only overshadowing Yu Zexiao without any class but also finally breaking through Jian Anning’s defenses, allowing her to accept his proximity naturally.
If this had been in the past, with him being so "shamelessly forward," those women would have thrown themselves at him like moths to a flame.
Yet ironically, the one excited about finding her hairpin and seeing her again was him.
Recalling that Yu Zexiao didn’t have to film today and was going on a blind date instead, her schedule freed up, didn’t it? He was eager to see her immediately, unwilling to wait even a moment!
"For today, how could I trouble you to come over in person?"
