With his natural disposition as a young master, how could he possibly bow down to such a woman?
Although he no longer had that arrogant air of "It’s your blessing that I’ve set my eyes on you," the idea of deigning to please Jian Anning was not entirely out of the question. However, it irritated him to see her smiling at Situ Xuan and still having to be nice to her.
Qin Xian suddenly asked, "Xingxing, is she really the only one for you?"
Yu Zexiao looked at him.
"If she really is the only one for you, then there’s nothing more to say." Just like him, who had been in love with that woman since birth. Even if it meant taking by force, being underhanded and deceitful, or resorting to forceful measures, he would have Ling Yinuo by his side.
But Yu Zexiao was different. He had never been in love before and could easily blur the lines between love and S-E-X.
Sometimes, the intense emotions a man feels for a woman might not be real love but an impulse driven by male instincts—of course, a man definitely has impulses for the woman he truly loves. But pure impulse isn’t necessarily love.
The way he acted suggested he did have strong feelings for his little assistant. But were these feelings love? Or were they merely a male instinctual impulse?
Yu Zexiao obviously couldn’t comprehend that deeply; he just frowned in recollection.
He had never considered whether she was the only one he couldn’t live without. But the one thing he was certain of was that in his twenty-eight years, only with Jian Anning had he never felt any dislike—physically, that is.
"If she is not the only one for you, you might try interacting with other women—erm, I’m not saying you should immediately get involved with those women, but rather, you should first have a chance to get to know and understand them. Maybe after you have met more people, you could suddenly realize that your feelings for Miss Jian might not be that special after all."
After hemming and hawing for a long time, Yu Zexiao slowly said, "Other women are dirty..."
"Then that’s that!" Mo Siyu shook his head and said, "Anyway, if what you want is just to bed her, then quit playing hard to get. Besides, having other men interested in your assistant just proves that your taste is quite good, doesn’t it? It shows that the assistant is in high demand, right?"
Yu Zexiao frowned and thought about it, and indeed, it was true.
He had never contemplated such issues before; first of all, because he had never paid any women much attention. Secondly, even if he had set his sights on someone, he would play it cool, feeling as if his interest was a blessing for them. Therefore, seeing Jian Anning with other suitors made him quite uncomfortable.
But upon further thought, it was indeed true, and moreover, even a man like Situ Xuan had his eyes on her—hmm, his taste wasn’t too bad after all!
"However, you’ve got to be careful! Although you have good taste and she has other admirers, she won’t necessarily follow you if you don’t make an effort," Ling Yichuan commented coolly from the side.
"So what do you think I should do?"
This time, Yu Zexiao readily accepted their advice, and Mo Siyu immediately got energized and said, "That goes without saying, if the assistant shows up with that man next time, don’t get angry. On the contrary, you should enhance the assistant’s presence in front of that man!"
