Chapter 757 - 766 Exposure (4)
On this side, Yu Zexiao had also put on the hoodie that Ling Yichuan prepared for him, zipped it up, and donned a mask. With his own clothing and black-framed glasses, and by pulling the cap low over his eyes, no one recognized him.
He and Jian Anning walked towards the small boat. The boatman did cast a strange glance at Yu Zexiao, but since his full disguise was in place, he indeed was not recognized.
Instead, it was Ling Yichuan who looked at him, then at Jian Anning, his eyes roaming with interest over the two of them. Clearly, he found their romance novel and intriguing.
Yu Zexiao was not accustomed to being gawked at like an animal in a zoo. Seeing that look, how could he not know what Ling Yichuan was thinking? His eyebrows furrowed immediately, and he was in a rather bad mood.
"What are you looking at!"
It was also lucky that he was wearing a mask, which slightly altered his voice, so the boatman didn’t notice anything different.
"What, so just because you have a face it’s meant for people to look at, and now you won’t let me see it?" Ling Yichuan was amused, especially since Yu Zexiao, although often haughty, seemed today to contain a hint of embarrassment and shyness within his haughtiness.
"Hmph, can’t be bothered with you." As he spoke, he sat next to Jian Anning, stretched out an arm, and draped it over her shoulders, his tone instantly turned as gentle as a lamb, "Are you still cold?"
Ling Yichuan was almost shocked speechless. He now seriously suspected whether Yu Zexiao had been body-swapped. How could this person, as gentle as a tail-wagging Samoyed, be Yu Xingxing?!
"I’m fine," said Jian Anning, a bit embarrassed.
