It could be firmly established that—this was a nickname known only to Jian Anning and Lu Jiayuan, belonging exclusively to her!
Yu Zexiao was absolutely livid! What were these two bastards up to? Flirting and exchanging barbs in front of him? Did they even consider him a person!
However, to his surprise, Jian Anning even nodded in agreement, "You’re right."
"Right my ass!" Yu Zexiao glared at her furiously. If he had known earlier that the man Jian Anning was desperately hiding was Lu Jiayuan, he would have killed Lu Jiayuan first, then dealt with their affair!
Unexpectedly, Jian Anning suddenly said, "If back then, our relationship hadn’t ended, you would probably be my brother-in-law by now!"
The words "brother-in-law" indeed packed a punch! In an instant, everyone froze!
Even Yu Zexiao was at a loss for words, his eyes wide open, watching them—unable to comprehend what was happening!
This dramatic turn of events was beyond most people’s expectations; those who were eavesdropping from the shadows never imagined they’d discover such a complex web of relationships!
Amid everyone’s surprise, Jian Anning spoke nonchalantly, "Senior Lu, back in the day, my sister and I, along with you, were members of the theatre club. We were very grateful for your care. I know that later my sister broke up with you over some matter—and over the years, you cut off contact with our family. I never imagined we would meet again on set! My sister was young and naive then, but you were older, her senior, and the man, so you should have been more considerate of her. If I go back to Canada, I will pass on your feelings to her. Don’t worry, she is still single."
"Moon, I’m not!" Lu Jiayuan panicked! He immediately stepped forward to explain, "I don’t like Thera at all, the two of us are just...... "
"Just what? We have nothing between us!" Jian Anning really got angry this time. He was the one who hesitated to accept her back then; now, he must face the consequences!
"We’re not boyfriend and girlfriend, and there’s nothing ambiguous between us! By saying this, are you being fair to my sister? Or do you think we sisters are just as naive and gullible, easy to bully at will?"
"I, I didn’t mean it like that, I......"
"Then there’s nothing more to say!" Jian Anning’s face was cold, her expression indifferent, as she walked away, "If you still have feelings for my sister, I’ll convey them to her when I return to Canada. As for whether or not she accepts you, that depends on your attitude. As for the rest—you’re on your own!"
Lu Jiayuan wanted to step forward, but Yu Zexiao stopped him, his voice icy, "I can take my own assistant with an injured leg back myself! If you’re that concerned, you should think about how to win back Anning’s sister!"
After saying this, he assertively pulled Jian Anning along and headed outside!
Jian Anning stumbled as she was pulled along, accidentally hitting her injured spot, which made her hiss in pain. Yu Zexiao heard it, but with so many people around, he felt embarrassed to ask how she was and only slowed his pace slightly, allowing her to keep up with him.
There was some distance from the single rooms where the leading actors stayed to the communal dormitory where she lived. Yu Zexiao walked ahead, with her following behind.
