Chapter 793: Chapter 803 Love at First Sight (7)

Suddenly, a torrent of emotions surged in her heart. There was shock, pain, and—an even deeper attachment!

For so many years, she had stood by Situ Xuan’s side. She watched as he defeated his cousins who opposed him, watched as he strategized and expanded the Situ family’s business, and then as he came to Huaxia Country to continue his conquest.

But all of this, including that Miss Cheng of the Cheng Family, apparently wasn’t enough to outweigh a mere Jian Anning!

She just didn’t understand. When it came to looks, Jian Anning wasn’t a peerless beauty. In terms of figure, she wasn’t a voluptuous goddess. When it came to personality, she definitely wasn’t the all-round charmer. As for her family background, it wasn’t as though she was some noble lady from a distinguished family.

Her only advantage was that she was Yu Zexiao’s woman!

Yet, if she were merely Yu Zexiao’s woman, Situ Xuan wouldn’t have been so enraged!

She wasn’t mistaken; he definitely had feelings for Jian Anning!

But what virtues and abilities did Jian Anning have? She really didn’t understand!

-------------------------------------

Just at this moment, Ya Jiayi received a phone call!

In the quiet office, the ringing of her phone was unusually piercing.

But she didn’t dare to answer it, she didn’t even dare to move! Only her eyes were fixed on Situ Xuan!

After a moment, it was Situ Xuan who snapped out of his rage, looking at her with eyes as cold as the ice of hell.

Ya Jiayi also came to her senses, trembling as she reached out her hand and pulled out the phone!

On the screen, it clearly showed that it was Cheng Tingting calling!

Ya Jiayi had been full of anticipation, hoping Cheng Tingting would call to question her, to question Situ Xuan! But now, she felt a bit scared to answer!

She didn’t know what to say if Cheng Tingting asked her about Situ Xuan’s interest in Yu Zexiao’s assistant!

"Answer it! Why don’t you dare to answer now!" At this point, Situ Xuan had completely calmed down after his fury. He was the kind of man who became more lucid the greater the blow.

Even if it really was Cheng Tingting coming to question him, so what? Cheng Tingting’s recent behavior had not gone unnoticed by him, and he bore it as a grudge in his heart! He couldn’t wait to break off their engagement and return to single life as soon as possible!

As long as it wasn’t Jian Anning calling to question him, he was confident he could smooth things over!

After all, he wasn’t getting married; it was just an engagement.

So long as he refused to admit it when the time came, he didn’t believe that his betrothal to Cheng Tingting could truly become an obstacle for them!

"Yes, yes..." Ya Jiayi endured the pain and pressed the answer button. Seeing Situ Xuan’s intense gaze, she boldly put the phone on speaker, letting him listen to her conversation with Cheng Tingting!

She knew that if she didn’t say something to his satisfaction—he would never forgive her.

As the call connected, Cheng Tingting’s voice came through quickly.

To their surprise, the expected reprimands and questions did not come. Instead, Cheng Tingting asked, "Ya Jiayi, is Huasi Film and Television going to collaborate with Yu Zexiao?"

That single sentence left both Ya Jiayi and Situ Xuan stunned on the spot!

Especially Situ Xuan, who had never expected Cheng Tingting to ask about Yu Zexiao instead of Jian Anning!
