The King’s Enchanting

Chapter 1690 - 1703: Reason (2)

Meanwhile, Jian Anning was watching from the side, watching, and when she saw his embarrassed face, for some reason, that initial shame, anger, embarrassment, and resentment suddenly vanished.

Only the coldness remained, an icy coldness.

Her face was cold, her eyes were equally cold, the whole person was as cold as ice! And being watched by such a Jian Anning, Yu Zexiao suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable!

He simply couldn’t imagine how his Jian Anning could become like this! Although the two were very close, it was as if there was a chasm dividing them! She was on one side, he was on the other!

"I, I can explain..." he stammered, his voice even trembling slightly.

"Explain what? Shopping for maternity and baby products with a young girl—" Situ Xuan’s disdainful and angry gaze fell on the bag of clothes for children that had just fallen from Yu Zexiao’s hands, "What did you say to me back then? You said you would take good care of Anning for a lifetime! How many years has it been? I really can’t respect you!"

"Sir, have you misunderstood something?" Chen Qinruo saw the argument and immediately came over to mediate.

"None of your business! Step aside!" Situ Xuan’s fierce gaze fell on Chen Qinruo. She was used to storms, but seeing Situ Xuan’s sharp eyes, she was genuinely intimidated!

Then, Situ Xuan looked back at Yu Zexiao: "If you’re a man, explain it clearly! Stop being so wishy-washy. If you don’t cherish Anning, there are plenty who do! Just one word, give a clear answer, what on earth is going on!"

Next to them, Jian Anning was also watching him. Her tightly clenched fists slowly loosened, and the anger, embarrassment, and sadness that had been filling her heart all dissipated. At this moment, what appeared in front of Yu Zexiao was a face purified by holy water.

She seemed to have given up on him, yet still clung to the last shred of hope, just waiting for him to give her an explanation!

That expression was like the calm after reaching the boiling point, the calm before the storm. Life or death!

The voice was as calm as ever: "Go ahead, after being together for so long, I need to hear your explanation."

"I..." Yu Zexiao frowned, as if he had some unspeakable concern, and for a long moment, he didn’t open his mouth.

"Sister Jian, have you misunderstood Brother Yu? I can explain..."

"This is between the two of them, why are you interfering? Or do you think you can speak for Yu Zexiao?"

With one sentence from Situ Xuan, Chen Qinruo closed her mouth, and meanwhile, Jian Anning continued to look at Yu Zexiao, her expression as calm and sharp as ever.

"I, I came here today, because, because..." he glanced at Jian Anning, thought for a long time, and bit his lip.

After preparing for so long, with only a few days left until it would be realized, should he reveal it here? But the suppressed young girl Chen Qinruo couldn’t hold back and shouted, "Brother Yu, just say it! If you hold back like this, Sister Jian will misunderstand you for nothing!"

Yu Zexiao hesitated for another moment, his clenched fist slowly opened, and after a long while, he raised his head covered in cold sweat, glanced at her, and said, "Actually, I came today for you..."
