Chapter 868: Chapter 878: A Way Out (Part 5)

"Alright, thank you." With that, Jian Anning couldn’t pretend not to hear anymore and responded immediately. Lu Jiayuan, rare for him, had things on his mind and didn’t say much to her.

Yu Zexiao looked somewhat surprised at his thoughtful expression, unlike his usual behavior of buzzing around Jian Anning like a fly to meat whenever he saw her. He felt a bit strange, but was pushed forward by Jian Anning, taking two steps ahead. Before she got on the elevator, she didn’t forget to glance back at him.

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

Arrived at the hotel room.

When Yu Zexiao moved back from the set yesterday, he had his assistant clean the place, so it was spotless. Shutting the door, Yu Zexiao didn’t bother with the bodyguards and two assistants outside, and pressed her against the door.

Yet, after a while, he didn’t know what to say, while Jian Anning looked up puzzled and asked him, "Zexiao?"

"He’s acting a bit odd today." After ages, Yu Zexiao finally muttered.

"Him? Which one?" She asked cluelessly, not even knowing whether Yu Zexiao was referring to a man or woman. Jian Anning was a bit puzzled.

It’s not that she didn’t notice Lu Jiayuan earlier, but even though her abdomen wasn’t hurting anymore, she still felt weak. The blood loss drained her energy, making her insensitive to Lu Jiayuan’s weirdness.

—Moreover, even if she was really interested in Lu Jiayuan, she wouldn’t dare show it in front of Yu Zexiao. What kind of person is Yu Zexiao? If he got jealous, she’d be in big trouble!

Yu Zexiao glared at her, seeing her confused face, he felt amused. This time, he got jealously out of habit. Meanwhile, his spouse didn’t even consider the other guy important, but rather asked who it was.

This thought comforted him. He looked down at Jian Anning, wondering if it was due to too much blood loss, as her face seemed paler, and even her thought process wasn’t as sharp as usual.

Still, he adored the way his wife seemed adorably silly. Why should a woman be so smart? When women are too clever, men like him wouldn’t have any space left.

"Why do I like you so much, huh?" As he spoke, he kissed her cheek and her lips.

Previously, when he didn’t have a woman, he thought women were troublesome. But he ended up with the most hassle-free one. Whether it’s household matters, work, dealing with people, or discussing his contract renewal with Uncle Yin - Jian Anning seemed like a jack-of-all-trades.

Except when it comes to music.

Yu Zexiao’s eyes glinted. Now thinking about it, not understanding music might not be a bad thing. Many couples who started as kindred spirits ended up breaking apart because of various disagreements and differing philosophies while working together.

Speaking of, just like him and Nie Anni, despite both being involved in music, he couldn’t get along with Nie Anni, and they quarreled whenever they met. If he were with Nie Anni, it’d be better off without.

"Don’t kiss." Jian Anning immediately dodged his kiss. The more she avoided it, the more Yu Zexiao found it amusing and chased after her, holding her head and planting several big kisses before he was satisfied.
