Chapter 1174: Chapter 1185: The Feeling of Love (Part 7)

Jian Anning smiled and took Yu Zexiao forward: “This is my boyfriend Zero. He flew over from Yancheng specifically to see me.”

Turning around, Jian Anning smiled at Yu Zexiao and said, “This is Aunt Sophia, our housekeeper. I owe her a lot for taking care of us all these years.”

Even a servant! And the decor of the house, though a bit outdated, still exudes a touch of elegance. If Yu Zexiao had notified her about his arrival, she might have had time to decorate. But since he came unannounced and the house is still in such a state, he instantly felt that if his little wife were brought back to Huaxia, she would definitely be a rich and beautiful woman!

Over here, Aunt Sophia took a careful look at Yu Zexiao and then beamed: “Hello Zero! Welcome to our home!”

Faced with Jian Anning’s “family,” Yu Zexiao immediately plastered on a smile too: “Hello.”

“Please come in.” Sophia immediately ushered the two inside. The house was warmly and comfortably decorated, with clear traces of Huaxia Country. As soon as he sat down, Aunt Sophia handed him a glass of water, which he took a bit sheepishly.

Jian Anning smiled: “You can go rest, I can take care of him myself.”

Aunt Sophia smiled and said to Jian Anning: “What a handsome boy!”

One sentence, and it made the usually thick-skinned Yu Zexiao blush. Jian Anning didn’t dwell on it. Once he finished his water, she took him to her room.

He looked around and realized the room was designed in pink, with everything looking cartoonishly dreamy — he never imagined that the original Jian Anning would have such a girlish heart!

These pink HELLO-KITTY bed sheets, the pink curtains, the white dressing table, and the white wardrobe covered in cute wallpaper!

“This room…”

“What about it?” Jian Anning seemed a bit confused. Yu Zexiao, however, laughed heartily: “Why did you decorate it this way? It’s really not your style!” She looked so cool and sharp, but the room’s decor was just too girly!

“This room was decorated when I was sixteen. It’s been ten years now.”

As soon as she said that, Yu Zexiao immediately understood; the room was decorated before her dad passed away.

“And now…” He hesitated, thinking, and then asked, “Was this your dad’s house?”

“Yes.” Jian Anning nodded. That explained why he hadn’t seen her horrible stepfather and mother; it turned out this wasn’t her stepfather’s house at all!

“Don’t be sad.” He kissed her lightly on the forehead, “From now on, I will protect you.”

“Okay.” She nodded. Sadness, anger, she had long since let go. Even the last bit of disappointment was completely gone after Cheng Juye messed with her father’s company.

What she wanted most now was to forget that family and live her own life well.

“Do you want to take a shower? But, I don’t think I have any clothes for you to change into here.”

Yu Zexiao had come in a hurry and hadn’t brought much with him. Plus, there were no men in the house, so it was naturally unlikely there would be men’s clothes.

Yu Zexiao hugged her, lightly biting her ear, and whispered: “Let’s shower together.”
