Ling Yichuan just couldn’t withstand this and immediately stepped back.

"That’s not what I meant." Jian Anning immediately twisted out of his embrace; she remembered she hadn’t come here to flaunt her affection with Yu Zexiao but to settle things with Situ Xuan!

She had already felt guilty toward Situ Xuan’s affection. And with Yu Zexiao saying this, how could she face Situ Xuan?

Fortunately, Yu Zexiao understood her meaning; he was not afraid of offending Situ Xuan at all!

This man knew full well that Jian Anning was his woman, yet he still dared to compete with him! Fundamentally speaking, Situ Xuan was of ill-intent, and he deserved to be dumped!

He even deliberately kissed Jian Anning’s cheek and, upon seeing the dull flash in Situ Xuan’s grey-blue pupils, curved his lips in satisfaction: "There, you’ve already made it clear to him. The rest is a matter for us men to handle."

As he spoke, he took the initiative to let go of her and strode toward Situ Xuan!

Jian Anning was afraid he might say something drastic and took two steps forward, only to be stopped by Ling Yichuan.

He smiled slightly, but a certain determination was shining in his peach-blossom eyes: "You trust Xingxing; he’s not the kind of man who can’t discern what matters most."

Although he might be somewhat absent-minded at times, once he solidified his beliefs——no one could do better than him!

As expected, Situ Xuan’s expression was serious, with a hint of mockery flickering in his grey-blue eyes.

Even now, he still believed that he was a hundred times better than Yu Zexiao! Because... because Yu Zexiao was the first to have her body, and it just so happened that she was the traditional type of woman who would stick to her first choice once someone got to her first.

Such a woman, once in love, would never betray; in the United States, in the whole world, was truly like a rare animal, desirable but hard to find!

The wealthier and more distinguished ones are, the more they hope to find someone who cherishes and likes them for themselves, not for fame, power, or other external factors, but simply for the person they are.

And Jian Anning was just such a person; it was just a pity that her love had already been stolen away by Yu Zexiao first.

If he had known earlier, if he had known what kind of woman she was from the start, maybe he would have done everything in his power, he would have strived to win her over! He definitely wouldn’t have let such a woman slip by!

But at this moment, Yu Zexiao was surprisingly free from any arrogant emotions; he stood in front of Situ Xuan as if meeting an old friend after many years: "Mr. Situ."

His voice, when not angry or losing his temper, was like a clear mountain spring flowing, enchantingly sweet: "I’m very grateful for your help and care toward Anning.

Anning is my girlfriend, and from now on, I hope you can keep some distance from her.

Because she is the person I’m seriously dating, who has already met my parents, and with whom I am preparing to marry. "

Although Jian Anning felt embarrassed by Yu Zexiao’s unguarded comments just now.

Still, the words Yu Zexiao had spoken made her feel immensely reassured at heart.

However, what they did not expect was that they would soon face their greatest crisis—Cheng Tingting’s arrival!
