119: Chapter 123: The Past, Present (7) 119: Chapter 123: The Past, Present (7) He believed it was because of his confidence in himself!
He kept saying, how could Jian Anning possibly seem like a woman who would chase after stars!
And even if she did chase after stars, why would she ignore a charming, handsome guy like him and instead like to watch some pretentious pretty boy with a false heart?
He knew that this woman, Jian Anning, although quite troublesome and disobedient, did have one quality he was quite satisfied with: her “eye for quality”!
At least, she knew how to distinguish a man like him from the likes of Lu Jiayuan, not knowing how many hundreds of times better he was!
However, he still had some doubts, “Then why do you feel guilty?”
Me?” Jian Anning diverted her gaze to look at the props in the distance.
You’re doing it right now!” Yu Zexiao immediately pressed further.
“That’s because…” Jian Anning began to think promptly, “That’s because when you had just stepped out, Jiang Xuanqi took advantage of your absence, suddenly appeared to humiliate me, and even tried to slap me.
As a result, I managed to push her away, and she ended up all dirty.
I was worried because, after all, you are her colleague.
I’m just a little assistant, and offending her might put you in a difficult position.”
Initially, she indeed was thinking of an excuse, but as she spoke faster and faster, it almost seemed true.
Moreover, there was consideration for Yu Zexiao in her tone.
Look at this: I’m just defending myself against Jiang Xuanqi, and I’m still worried about putting you in a difficult spot.
Hearing this, it was as if her heart was radiating loyalty to the sun, wishing she could lie down and lavish Yu Zexiao with praise!
——And don’t even mention it, such a humble attitude seemed to have really pleased him!
As for her pushing Jiang Xuanqi and making her dirty?
What was that to him?
Did he need to care at all?
Yu Zexiao nodded his head, stood up with his tall build, and a smile appeared on his handsome face: “Alright, let’s go.
What do you want to eat tonight?”
She naturally responded, “Um, anything.
The words “Whatever you like” pierced straight into Yu Zexiao’s heart!
He couldn’t help but feel smug, thinking, huh, I just knew that Jian Anning’s heart is truly tied to me!
Even with a simple dinner, I gracefully allowed her to choose, and she still wants me to pick!
“Then, how about we go for Western food?
Didn’t someone just mention that there’s a great steakhouse?
I roughly know where it is, and that place really does a good job,” Yu Zexiao said with genuine interest.
He was referring to Jiang Xuanqi, and now, he had completely forgotten her recommendation, intending to try it out for himself.
“Won’t you be surrounded by onlookers if you go out?”
She was still concerned that Yu Zexiao going out would lead to a commotion.
Although he was a brilliant superstar, it was precisely because he shone so brightly that wherever he went, he was the object of media pursuit.
Even going to a public restroom could attract paparazzi.
“It should be fine.” Once Yu Zexiao set his mind on something, he would do it, and now he wanted to have a steak, so he would have it tonight.
“Didn’t Jiang Xuanqi say there were private rooms?” Yu Zexiao was unconcerned; as long as they were in a private room, there would definitely be no problem!
