Ex-Girlfriend Strategy (GL) - Chapter 37

After lying down to rest for a bit, Yang Jiu got up, took off her bra, changed into more comfortable clothes, and went to the living room to wait.

When she went out, Shu Nanxuan wasn’t in the living room.

Yang Jiu turned on the living room’s TV and switched to the legal channel.

These past few years, her busy work left her with little time for entertainment.

If she wanted to relax, she usually chose to watch the legal channel.

After watching for about ten minutes, the doorbell rang. It was probably the food delivery.

Yang Jiu opened the door, let the person in, and set the food on the table before calling Shu Nanxuan out.

“Boss, the food’s here. You can come eat now.”

She knocked three times, as usual, not too many or too few, with just the right rhythm.

Soon, Shu Nanxuan opened the door.

This time, she was dressed even more lightly than before, having taken off the jacket, leaving only the sleeveless nightgown.

The moment Yang Jiu’s eyes landed on her body, she looked away.

The sight was too stimulating for her right now.

Her head buzzed, and she thought she might get a nosebleed.

Sharing a suite with Shu Nanxuan already had her imagination running wild, and now Shu Nanxuan was dressed like this in front of her.

How was she supposed to survive the night?

But when that view left her sight, Yang Jiu suddenly felt a pang of loss.

If she couldn’t have it, at least she could look!

Yang Jiu turned her eyes back, her greedy gaze lingering on Shu Nanxuan, etching every inch of her beauty into her mind.

So what if she got a nosebleed?

So what if she had to take care of herself a few times tonight? She could handle it!

If she could hold back from looking, she’d be a bastard!

None of this inner turmoil was noticed by Shu Nanxuan, who had already walked past her to the dining table.

Shu Nanxuan glanced at the dishes.

They were alright, and the bit of annoyance she felt when she went to her room eased a little.

“Come on, why are you still standing there?”

Shu Nanxuan sat down, noticed Yang Jiu still standing, and urged her.

Yang Jiu hurried over in a few steps.

“Coming, coming.”

Over the past few months, she had eaten with Shu Nanxuan many times and roughly figured out her current tastes—what dishes she liked and which ones she no longer cared for.

Still, she worried about ordering the wrong food and Shu Nanxuan not enjoying it.

“Boss, is the food to your taste?” Yang Jiu asked after Shu Nanxuan took a few bites.

Shu Nanxuan nodded lightly.

Yang Jiu finally relaxed.

As the saying goes, beauty is a feast for the eyes, and Yang Jiu deeply felt it now.

She had thought she was hungry looking at the table full of food, but when Shu Nanxuan sat down, her heart was no longer eating.

Every now and then, she stole a glance at Shu Nanxuan but said nothing, looking briefly before continuing to eat tastelessly.

Shu Nanxuan didn’t speak the whole time.

She didn’t eat much at night and finished quickly. When she was done, she said, “Had enough looking?”

Shu Nanxuan expected Yang Jiu to lower her head and deny it, but this time, she miscalculated.

“No, I want to keep looking. I could never get enough, even in a lifetime,” Yang Jiu said with a smile, looking at her.

“You’re beautiful.”

Shu Nanxuan froze for a second before reacting, her face stern.

“Is this the attitude you should have toward your boss?”

“No, this is my attitude toward the ex-girlfriend I want to pursue.”

Yang Jiu didn’t back down, hitting straight.

“I like you, so I want to look at you more.”

“You…”

Yang Jiu cut her off. “It’s normal to look at someone I like.”

“You’ve always known I want to be with you.”
