436 Why Donst You Play With Me? (1/2)
His words were like a million daggers piercing through her heart.
”You men are so superficial. She may be prettier, more outstanding, and have better skin than I do, but you've spent more than a month with me. Do you really not have, in the least bit, any feelings for me at all?”
”I don't.”
”…”
Bu Xianxian could not take his cold and nonchalant reply. ”Nick…”
”Xianxian, I'm utterly grateful to you for saving my life, but that doesn't mean I have to go against my morals and values in order to repay you. I hope you'll understand.”
Bu Xianxian fell silent, at a complete loss for words.

An Xiaoning attended Gu Dongcheng's wedding just days after attending Gu Beicheng's.
Their wedding dates were closely apart.
An Xiaoning had prepared two red packets for each of them, though the amount inside each red packet was different.
Between the two brothers who have different mothers, An Xiaoning was much closer to Gu Beicheng.
Not to mention, Gu Dongcheng's fiancée was Xu Youran, her arch enemy.
The entire Gu family gathered around the dining table for a meal. An Xiaoning was completely unaffected by Xu Youran and remained poised and relaxed throughout.
Well, because she knew Gu Dongcheng was the only one in the family who was on Xu Youran's side.
What appeared to be a simple meal on the surface was, in reality, an exchange of sarcastic remarks and words with hidden barbs.
An Xiaoning made it a point to state things clearly beforehand, so as to give Gu Dongcheng and Xu Youran a warning.
”Father, Mother, we found some supernatural beings in the ancestral hall previously. From now onwards, we must install surveillance cameras in every corner of the house, be it the kitchen or the water supply plant. Now that there are more people around in this house, we have to be wary in case someone tries to tamper with anything. Prevention is better than cure.”
”What are you saying, Sis-in-law?” Xu Youran said smilingly.
”By the way, Father and Mother, I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but Xu Youran is Qingyan's half-sister. Am I supposed to address her as my sister-in-law in the future, or should it be the other way around?” An Xiaoning added.
”Xiaoning, we wouldn't have known if you didn't mention it. Youran, are you really Qingyan's half-sister?” Mrs. Gu asked.
”How is that possible? I'm afraid Sis-in-law might be mistaken,” Xu Youran denied.
”I think I may have gotten the wrong person too. Why don't you do a DNA test with Qingyan?” An Xiaoning turned to her husband, who was sitting beside her, and asked, ”Hubby, what do you think of this idea?”
”Great.”
A sullen look formed on Xu Youran's face immediately. Of course, she wouldn't want to carry out the test. ”Mr. Jin's father has already looked me up before, claiming that I was his daughter. It was so out of the blue and peculiar though. I have my own parents, why would I be a member of the Jin family? Quit flattering me.”
”In that case, just go get a DNA test done. Wouldn't everything be clear then? Besides, we wouldn't have to keep making wild guesses anymore,” An Xiaoning said with a smile, which was getting on Xu Youran's nerves.
”What if I don't want to get the test done?” Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
”Don't tell me you're getting afraid? It's fine if you'd like to keep denying it. It doesn't matter to the Jin family whether or not you choose to admit it anyway,” An Xiaoning answered, pursing her lips.
An icy cold glare formed in Xu Youran's eyes. Staring at An Xiaoning, she gibed, ”You seem to be in a very good mood now that your husband is back.”
”Of course, who wouldn't be?”
”People with three sets of parents are just so different.”
”I only have one more than you, you don't have to be so modest. Regardless of how many sets of parents I may have, I definitely wouldn't sponge off my father and bring shame to my entire family, unlike someone over here. I'm really worried for Elder Brother. I'm afraid he'll have to live his life quaking with fear every day after marrying a wicked pest like you,” An Xiaoning scorned.
