The King's Enchanting-Chapter 1469 - 1481: Chaos (7)

Just thinking about last night, Jian Anning covered in marks, it’s truly shocking!

He was just about to rush forward, but Situ Xuan didn’t even glance at him. His gaze was fixed on Jian Anning beside him, with gentle and apologetic emotions swirling in his gray-blue eyes. He suddenly bowed his head and apologized to her sincerely, "Anning, I’m sorry. As a man, I did not treat you with gentlemanly means, and I inadvertently hurt you. It was not my intention. I want to say to you here: I’m sorry!"

Jian Anning stood behind Yu Zexiao. Although she wasn’t as afraid as she was last night when she heard his name, she kept her head down and didn’t want to speak.

Some harms cannot be erased with just an apology.

Yu Zexiao just wanted to laugh, "Now what? Crocodile tears? Do you think one apology can offset your mistake?"

The more Situ Xuan acted like this, the more Yu Zexiao wanted to hit him! But Situ Xuan completely ignored him, while Jian Anning understood the meaning behind his words.

He said he did wrong yesterday, not because he wanted to have her was wrong, but because of his actions! He thinks that if it wasn’t for the force, then causing pain in a domineering way was reasonable!

To put it plainly, he still regards himself as her fiancé.

Jian Anning had long thought of never seeing him again and naturally didn’t want to continue with this issue. Especially since she heard Shen Lanxiao and Yin Maohui’s phone call this morning. She actually knew that pursuing this matter, although it would punish Situ Xuan, would definitely be a situation where both sides suffer immensely!

Not only would Yu Zexiao’s career be at risk, but even her marriage into the Yu Family would bring no benefits! Even if Yu Jingxi and Shen Lanxiao are understanding and wouldn’t criticize her for this, over time, there would inevitably be others pointing fingers at her behind her back!

She could risk everything, but she couldn’t let Yu Zexiao and his family bear such a heavy burden because of it!

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and mustered the courage to look at Situ Xuan, clenching her fists, her voice slightly hoarse, "Yesterday, I already made things clear. Although you... but you saved me later. Let’s wipe the slate clean between us! I don’t want to see you again in the future."

"Anning, how can you be so foolish! That bastard nearly..." Yu Zexiao immediately turned around and grabbed her arm, "Even if he saved you later, it was what he should have done! Who told him to take you to that mountain path? If it wasn’t for his malicious intent, you wouldn’t have been in danger! Even if he died in the end, it would serve him right! We should sue him, make sure he goes to jail!"

For a moment, Yu Zexiao forgot his mother’s admonition, all he wanted was to bring Situ Xuan to justice!

Jian Anning could only smile bitterly. Didn’t she want justice too? But Yin Maohui had a point, the cost was too high, not worth the loss! 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"Anning." At this moment, Situ Xuan stepped forward, "I would rather you hit me, scold me, blame me... even if you report to arrest me! Just don’t, don’t be like this, as if we’re strangers!"

"Shut up!" Yu Zexiao turned and glared at him angrily.

"What, didn’t Anning tell you? She was originally my fiancée!"
