The King's Enchanting-Chapter 1437 - 1449: Peril (3)
"Do you know what goes through my mind when I see you with Yu Zexiao? Do you know how I feel every time Yu Zexiao flaunts in front of me? You know..." Situ Xuan’s gray-blue eyes flashed with a hint of pain, "Do you know the feeling when I personally heard you and Yu Zexiao inside... together?"
Jian Anning wasn’t dumb, hearing him say this, her face instantly lost all color: "You, what did you say?"
"You think I did it intentionally? No matter how shameless I am, I wouldn’t do such a thing! I’m telling you, it was Yu Zexiao who deliberately called me when you... you were together with the purpose of making me retreat!" Situ Xuan recalled that humiliating scene, his whole being was like an enraged lion, utterly furious!
Jian Anning was completely stunned, unsure if it was because of Situ Xuan’s words or his current anger. She bit her lip, only regaining a bit of color after a long time, her expression somewhat cold and sharp: "If this is what you wanted to say, then I’ve already heard it. Please immediately, right now, take me to the filming location! I have work and can’t afford to waste time here!"
"You’re not surprised, you’re not angry? Yu Zexiao doesn’t truly love you! He just... he just selfishly wants your body; he wouldn’t understand you in the slightest!" Situ Xuan was also stunned, especially seeing Jian Anning maintain her composure at such a moment. It made him truly realize that Jian Anning had genuinely fallen for Yu Zexiao, given her feelings, and — was willing to trust and understand him.
No matter the issue, the two of them could handle it internally, but as long as it was external, she always sided with Yu Zexiao.
Whether Yu Zexiao was right or wrong, or whether he did it, is beside the point. But at least she wouldn’t immediately overturn the good feelings Yu Zexiao gave her just because of Situ Xuan’s words!
"I trust him."
Jian Anning’s words left him completely stunned.
"No matter what he has done, I trust him. He’s impulsive and immature, certainly not as mature and considerate as you. But I know he truly loves me, he’s wholeheartedly devoted to me." Jian Anning’s expression was calm as she gazed at him unblinkingly, "I know the past was my fault. I shouldn’t have gone to Yu Zexiao without informing you. I was wrong, I’m sorry. But I can’t just break up with him because of that. I love him, I can’t do it."
Situ Xuan was completely stunned, not even knowing how to speak to her! Jian Anning said, "William, I genuinely want to be friends with you. You’re so outstanding, mature, and considerate, from such a good family. You could find anyone; I’m not good enough, I’m not as excellent as you imagined, so please..."
"But you originally promised me! You... you were supposed to be mine!" As composed as Situ Xuan was, seeing her so resolute, he was close to breaking down!
"William, I’m very sorry!" Jian Anning nodded to him as a gesture, knowing in her heart that she might not be able to continue speaking with him anymore.
