Situ Xuan clearly felt that his measures had just been effective!
He knew that since Jian Anning had chosen to be with Yu Zexiao, she wouldn't want him to entangle with her anymore.
Alright then, he would do "as she wished" and present himself as an incredibly gracious man. No entanglements and no further confessions, just displaying a very "businesslike" attitude, ceasing any entanglement, merely appearing as friends and colleagues, a peaceful "friendship" that could draw her heart closer!
Sure enough, after hearing Situ Xuan's "businesslike" words, Yu Zexiao still maintained a hostile attitude towards him, while Jian Anning felt a bit surprised. However, it was just surprise, nothing more. She understood that "a rumored lover of one's girlfriend" is traditionally not a pleasing role.
