73: Chapter 74 Collision (2)
Meanwhile, Situ Xuan’s grey-blue eyes slightly squinted.
His gaze slid off from Yu Zexiao’s figure and slowly shifted to Jian Anning’s face, which was obscured by Yu Zexiao’s arm!
The image was truly blurry; Jian Anning’s facial features were almost completely indiscernible.
Not only that, even the hand that Yu Zexiao placed on her chest couldn’t be made out at all.
He could only glimpse the woman’s small chin from the little that was revealed, with her black hair spread out on the ground like threads of silk.
Ya Jiayi continued to report dutifully, “This female star is named Jiang Xuanqi, twenty-five years old.
She is, like Yu Zexiao, under contract with Starlight Entertainment.
She debuted five years ago and has filmed a few TV dramas.
This is her first collaboration with Yu Zexiao.”
Ya Jiayi waited a few more minutes until finally, Situ Xuan set the photo aside.
Perceiving the stasis in his brow, Ya Jiayi continued to inquire, “Mr.
Situ, would you like me to continue having someone investigate this Jiang Xuanqi matter?”
Situ Xuan didn’t speak.
Ya Jiayi thought for a moment, then said, “Just now, the son of the Cheng Family called.”
Ordinarily, she never gossiped; she also knew that Situ Xuan greatly disliked others probing into his affairs.
But the matter concerning the daughter of the Cheng Family and Situ Xuan lingered like a fishbone stuck in her throat.
Ya Jiayi carefully observed his expression but still couldn’t help asking, “—He said, he wants to discuss with you the engagement arrangements with his sister.”
Situ Xuan did not take offense at Ya Jiayi’s presumption but simply nodded and responded absentmindedly, “Mmm, I know.”
Right after that, he picked up the photo again, and as he looked at it, a scrutinizing expression gradually surfaced amidst his features.
His father, Situ Che, the only man he had ever lost to in his life—the son of that man.
He stood up; Situ Xuan was very tall, his entire demeanor radiating the decisive aura of a person in high command.
As he rose, it exerted a substantial pressure on the five-foot-three Ya Jiayi.
He strolled leisurely to the window and drew back the curtains.
Outside the window was a vast expanse of blue sea.
The nascent sunrise ascended from the horizon, dyeing the blue sea with a tinge of red.
His grey-blue pupils, as if soaked by the sunlight, briefly flashed a gleam, “How much is left of the matters at hand?”
Ya Jiayi replied, “We’re still in negotiations with the clients from the Middle East.
After signing, we still need the state government’s approval.”
“Hurry up and finish it,” said Situ Xuan, lowering his gaze to look at the photo held in his grasp.
His deep gaze scanned over Yu Zexiao in the picture and, at last, fell on Jian Anning’s face, obscured by his arm.
“I recall that our film and television company also invested in Yu Zexiao’s new TV drama, didn’t we?
Once I’ve finished up here, I should also take a trip to Huaxia Country.
I should see for myself how the piece we invested in turned out, shouldn’t I?
And that woman…”
In the early morning sunlight, Situ Xuan’s lips slightly curled up in a slight smile, radiating charm like ripples on water, spreading out circle by circle, exuding a lustrous, handsome allure.

Shangcheng Film and Television City.
“Zexiao, I don’t really understand this part, could you teach me?” Jiang Xuanqi’s large, appealing eyes gazed expectantly, sitting in front of the drum set, looking puzzled at Yu Zexiao before her.
