The King’s Enchanting

Chapter 1745 - 1759: Together (3)

She knew she had been in a bad mood and had been giving Jian Anning quite a lot of attitude. Suddenly, she recalled something and asked with a horrified expression: "She had a cold before, took some medication, this..."

With that said, everyone’s face in the room showed concern. Some medications are not suitable for pregnant women, and in the past few days, she’d been feeling dizzy from the illness (which was actually due to pregnancy), not knowing how much medicine she’d taken.

"Don’t worry, Grandma. I had already instructed the doctor not to prescribe any medication that could affect the body."

Yu Zexiao was truly grateful for his foresight back then! Otherwise, after all the effort it took to have this child, he wouldn’t dare to keep it due to the medication!

The faces that were just pale regained their color instantly. Even the usually stern Yu Jingxi was no exception.

It seems that the Yu Family had been longing for this child for a very long time!

"Ze, Zexiao... are you saying, are you saying that I..." Jian Anning was shocked by his vague words. Could it be that she had some terminal illness?

Otherwise, why would Xia Ziyu, who had always treated her poorly, suddenly make a 180-degree change in attitude?

Indeed, she had been feeling a bit weak lately, catching colds, coughing, and fainting were frequent occurrences. What if she really had a terminal illness...

Jian Anning lowered her head in pain, feeling more uncomfortable looking at the concern in Yu Zexiao’s expression.

"Don’t think too much, just rest well. We will all be here with you." Yu Zexiao’s voice was gentle, looking at her as if a tender emotion was welling up in his eyes.

It made her nose sting even more.

Moreover, waves of grievance filled her heart. Why her? She was just in her early thirties, how could she have a terminal illness?

She pulled the quilt up, burying her head under it like she did when she was sick as a child. As if this could isolate the germs, she covered her head, her nose stinging, and tears uncontrollably welled up.

Yu Zexiao was startled and immediately held her: "Anning, what’s wrong?"

He thought she was too emotional, too excited, that she was "crying tears of joy." He immediately comforted her, "Don’t cry, look, we’ll get married, as soon as you’re discharged, we’ll get married right away!"

"You still want to marry me?" Jian Anning’s voice trembled when she spoke. Looking up at the Yu Family members beside her, each had a complex expression, and Shen Lanxiao even had tears in her eyes — she was genuinely moved, but Jian Anning thought she pitied her.

"Of course! Didn’t we agree ages ago, that we would get married immediately after five years? We still have a long, long way to go together!"

Even if it was a "lie," Jian Anning felt a mix of sourness and sweetness in her heart, followed by a boundless sense of despair.

"But, I..." Her eyes blinked, a tear spilled over, and she cast a timid glance at Xia Ziyu, feeling sad and hurt, "I don’t deserve you."

"Nonsense!" Yu Zexiao chided softly, and Xia Ziyu, seeing that glance from Jian Anning, being straightforward, immediately stepped forward and said, "Anning, don’t overthink it. Back then... I was a bit impatient by nature. Actually, ever since you entered the Yu Family’s door five years ago, I never thought of letting you go."

Even Xia Ziyu came to comfort her, indicating her illness must have been serious! Although the Yu Family members all nodded, her heart was still filled with sorrow.
