Chapter 869: Chapter 879: A Way Out (Part 6)

Looking at her rosy little mouth, he couldn’t help but think... Actually, there was no need for her to use her little hand to help him at night, her little mouth... should, definitely, be even better, right?

Mmm, must try it sometime!

Still unaware she had been thought of that way, Jian Anning blushed and pulled away from his arms. Just as Yu Zexiao was about to step forward, there was a knock at the door from outside.

"What’s the matter?"

"Mr. Yu, Miss Hong and Miss Nie are here."

Hong Minjun and Nie Anni came, naturally for the evening’s event. The evening’s banquet had already decided that Nie Anni would be his companion. Clearly, Nie Anni coming over was also to help him get ready.

"...Got it, let them rest in the living room, we’ll be right out."

Yu Zexiao and Jian Anning tidied up a bit inside and quickly came out. As soon as the door opened, the doorbell rang again. Opening the door this time, it was Ling Yinuo bringing in her team of makeup artists and designers.

Upon entering, Ling Yinuo’s face was all smiles: "Xingxing, Anning, long time no see."

"Miss Ling." Jian Anning had a good impression of her, having troubled her with many things before. Now seeing her coming over with a team, it was clear she was here to help them get dressed and ready.

Originally, Yu Zexiao had a makeup artist, but the makeup artist could only provide makeup services and couldn’t take care of clothing and other styling. Since they were leaving Shangcheng anyway, it was better to ask Ling Yinuo for help—after all, she seemed to be invited to the banquet tonight as well.

Upon hearing the commotion outside, Hong Minjun and Nie Anni also came over. Ling Yinuo was low-key and usually hated people publicizing her as the sister of the Ling Consortium’s president. Moreover, aside from designing clothes, she mostly stayed at home and didn’t socialize outside. Outsiders basically didn’t know her true identity.

Though they didn’t know, her demeanor and appearance said it all—clearly, she was a woman of considerable caliber. Especially with her beaming face, she seemed more approachable than Nie Anni, who liked to play cool and played the piano.

Ling Yinuo didn’t know Hong Minjun and Nie Anni, assuming they were just friends of Yu Zexiao, so she casually nodded at them and walked over to Jian Anning. She said with a smile, "I’ve heard from my brother about you and Xingxing, when will we get to taste your wedding candies?"

Jian Anning blushed deeply at this comment. Luckily, everyone in the room was familiar acquaintances, all aware of her and Yu Zexiao’s relationship, so there was no worry of gossip. Though Ling Yinuo initially had some doubts about Jian Anning’s background, as long as Yu Zexiao was fine with it, she wouldn’t say anything.

Yu Zexiao, concerned about his wife’s thin skin, came over without a word and wrapped his arm around her shoulders, showing a faint smile: "At the very least, we’ll have to wait until I return to Yancheng and report to my mother first."

Ling Yinuo just smiled: "Aunt Shen came over recently but went back after only a few days. If you and Anning decide a bit earlier, I can also visit Yancheng for a bit of fun."

With such banter, soon enough, the makeup artists and stylists Ling Yinuo brought were put to work immediately.
