The King’s Enchanting
Chapter 830 - 840: Jealousy (4)

It seems that the Little Heavenly King really wants to be with Jian Anning!

A meal where everyone’s expressions were different.

Before leaving, Nie Anni didn’t say much, just gave Jian Anning and Yu Zexiao a look, with a hint of indescribable meaning in her eyes.

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

Once they all went out, Yu Zexiao finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally gone."

Jian Anning lightly tapped his face: "You, you really are something!"

"Why, I just don’t like that Nie Anni!" Yu Zexiao frowned, "Besides, I also think... you seem to be... regarding her..."

Jian Anning was surprised. She didn’t expect that Yu Zexiao could notice her tiny bit of jealousy towards Nie Anni.

She was jealous, jealous that Nie Anni could apprentice under Master John Gruber and do what she loved the most. The Nie family was harmonious, and Nie Anni, being the youngest, was spoiled by her brothers and sisters.

Such a person, although a bit arrogant, possessed everything Jian Anning envied.

Moreover, she had come to Yu Zexiao’s side. Although Yu Zexiao wasn’t courteous to her at all, only Jian Anning knew—Yu Zexiao was really fond of music. If the two of them continued to get along like this, what might happen, she didn’t know.

Yet, Yu Zexiao had seen through her tiny thoughts and helped her in his own way.

She looked at him incredulously: "How did you...?"

"I see that although you’re normally quite polite to her, this is different from how you treat others." Yu Zexiao said, "When it comes to her, although you’re also very courteous and polite, it’s like you don’t want to talk much with her. And just now, when Sister Minjun suggested she be my partner, you helped to scold her, but your expression wasn’t very natural..."

Jian Anning was truly stunned. She never thought that just a small moment—he could actually see through!

Only someone who paid a lot of attention and was very familiar with her, who understood her personality well, could notice that tiny bit of displeasure. She believed that she did well in terms of etiquette towards Nie Anni without any rudeness. The only difference was that she wasn’t warm to her and even didn’t dare to look at her.

How could Yu Zexiao know that she was envious, jealous, and resentful that Nie Anni had the rightful pursuit of music, could study under Master John Gruber, and had the warmth of family... She felt a bit jealous, but she told herself that her tiny bit of jealousy was insignificant. That’s why she had that hint of resistance, yet most people couldn’t sense it.

Yu Zexiao pulled her into his arms, smiling with some gratification and indulgence: "You, you just like getting jealous!"

He thought Jian Anning was because Nie Anni had been a prospective match for him, endorsed by his mother as the perfect daughter-in-law, with equally good family background conditions.
