At the Xu Family's gate.

An Ning waved goodbye to Jiang Xianxin, then turned around and walked into the courtyard. There was still a hint of sweetness on her face. The feelings between the two of them had rapidly increased over the past few days, and the animosity An Ning felt towards the matter between Jiang Xihan and Ji Mingzhen had lessened.

A few steps up, just as An Ning was about to enter the password, the door was opened from the inside. Xu Wang's face appeared, and he saw the smile on the corner of An Ning's mouth.

He glanced outside and saw that Jiang Jia's car was still parked outside the door. Although he couldn't see what the car looked like, Xu Wang could feel his gaze meeting Jiang Jia's for a split-second. As if nothing had happened, he retracted his gaze and looked at An Ning, who had been frightened out of her wits. His gaze once again became gentle.

"You're back. It's cold outside!"

She did not want to delay Xu Wang. Whether she lived in the Xu Family or worked in Xu Wang's studio, these things were all faintly giving Xu Wang a chance to treat her well. This would only send him deeper and deeper into the trap.

"Xu Wang, there's something I want to tell you!"

For some reason, An Ning felt an impulse to say something. She didn't think twice before saying it.

"I want to move out, and I don't want to go back to the studio. Thank you for taking care of me during this period."

Xu Wang's steps were disordered for a split-second, and his expression, which was as gentle as ever, also shattered. However, he quickly returned to normal as he turned around and sat down on the sofa. He slightly raised his head to look at An Ning with a warm smile.

"Why did you decide all of a sudden?"

When Xu Wang saw An Ning's expression tonight, he had a faint feeling that her and Jiang Xiushan's feelings might reignite again. He was a little worried, but he kept telling himself repeatedly in his heart that they just went out to eat a meal, and that it didn't mean anything.

However, the moment An Ning wanted to move out, Xu Wang could no longer deceive herself. An Ning's decision, as well as the sweet look of a little woman in love that faintly appeared from the corner of her eyes, were like knives that stabbed into Xu Xin's heart. It took almost all of his strength to control herself from trembling, only then was he able to maintain the smile on her face.

An Ning didn't know how she should reply. She lowered her eyelashes slightly, avoiding Xu Weng's questioning gaze as she sat down on the sofa opposite her.

"I've lived in your home for too long, I've almost saved up all of my money. I can find a house with a good environment. As for quitting my job, I don't want to work anymore. I want to stay at home to nurture my baby."

It was unknown whether he was thinking about or agreeing with An Ning's words. Seeing him like this, An Ning felt her heart rise up, afraid that Xu Wang would suddenly confess or something due to the incident where she left. When that time came, it would truly be impossible to end it.

"Have you found a house?"

Xu Wang seemed to have agreed with what he had just said. However, after his excitement subsided, An Ning felt a little awkward. The decision to leave the Xu Family had been made in a hurry.

"Nope."

An Ning shook her head, her tone sounding a little nervous.

"Then I'll help you look for one. It's enough for you to live on your own if you're small, right? Do you have any specific requirements regarding location?"

Just as An Ning was about to refuse saying, "There's no need to trouble yourself", she suddenly remembered that the reason Xu Wang said this was because he didn't trust her, so he wanted to help her look out for the surrounding situation. Furthermore, based on An Ning's understanding of Xu Han, if she didn't let him help her, he definitely wouldn't be able to go out and live on his own.

The rejection became agreement.

"Alright, I don't have any requirements. Just a bit more convenient and it'll be fine."

Xu Wang nodded, as if already having an idea in mind. He then stood up and prepared to walk upstairs. Seeing him like this, An Ning breathed a sigh of relief. This inexplicable awkward atmosphere was finally going to disappear.

"You, are you ready to have a new relationship with Jiang Jia?"

Even though Xu Wang was asking An Ning, he used a tone of certainty.

An Ning didn't expect Xu Wang to ask such a question. She was momentarily stunned before her gaze drifted over and stopped meeting his gaze. She fell silent for a few moments.

"..." It's up to fate. Who knows what will happen in the future? "

An Ning did not deny it, but neither did she say yes. Instead, she gave an ambiguous answer. Xu Wang smirked as she nodded thoughtfully.

"Alright, I understand. Good night."

She knew that she loved him, but it was a pity that she only loved him because he felt cold. Therefore, he prepared to move away from her in order to make her give up. In the end, the real reason why An Ning had left was for Jiang Qisha.

Xu Wang's eyes were full of self-mockery and unwillingness. He was the one who met An Ning first, but why did the person who entered her heart turn out to be Jiang Jia Han?

He had always been a gentleman. Even though love was originally despicable, he still lived a very fair and honorable life. Two days later, he gave the key to his new home to An Ning and paid the rent for her in advance for three months.

An Ning insisted on giving the money to Xu Wang, but was rejected.

"We are friends, there is no need to be so polite! If you reject me again, you will be looking down on me. "

He knew that once An Ning left, he would no longer be able to return. Before, he and An Ning had always lived together, and now, it was time for him to wake up from his beautiful dream, because the love he had in his youth had already become a thing of the past. An Ning had walked out, and he was left with only hope in her place, but, one day, she might even become Jiang Han's wife.

Since Xu Wang had already said so, An Ning did not know that she should refuse. She could only silently accept his good intentions. Accompanied by Xu Wang, she first went to look around the house.

The house that Xu Wang found was in a good location. The nearby subway station, hospital, shopping mall and many other basic facilities were all very well-equipped. Also, due to An Ning's pregnancy, this district was only three crossroads away from the hospital.
