The King's Enchanting-Chapter 1586 - 1598: Five-Year Promise (Part 5)

"Baby, it’s okay, it’s okay!" He kissed her lips softly, when suddenly Situ Xuan shouted, "Watch out!"

Without anyone noticing, Situ Xuan suddenly charged at them fiercely, and then a gunshot rang out. Situ Xuan, who had just dashed towards them, seemed to suddenly freeze in mid-air, pausing for a few seconds, unable to move!

Yu Zexiao, just pushed aside, was initially annoyed, but when he saw Cheng Tingting’s dark gun barrel billowing smoke, pointing precisely at the spot where they had been standing, now blocked by Situ Xuan, his anger turned into shock!

Jian Anning was clearly turned away from Situ Xuan, and when the gunshot sounded, she didn’t know what had happened. However, after last night’s frantic chase, she could feel Situ Xuan’s deep affection for her!

Turning around, she saw Situ Xuan casting a complex look at them, with emotions of deep affection, regret, and relief. However, after confirming her safety, he fell heavily to the ground like a kite with its string cut! The snow beneath him was stained red by his spreading blood!

Cheng Tingting, having fired a shot, had evidently picked up Franz’s gun, which had fallen to the ground. Although Cheng Wanli had been restrained by the police, the weather was too harsh last night, leaving Yu Zexiao’s team cut off from communication!

Cheng Tingting was quickly subdued by the police, who seized the gun from her hand. As she was taken away, her eyes were red, desperately shouting, "Zero, she’s not worth it, she’s not worth it!"

She had gone mad.

Her inability to obtain Yu Zexiao, her hatred and loathing for Jian Anning, and now with Franz being gunned down, she likely knew that she couldn’t escape anymore.

Seeing such a massive setup, and even Franz dead, while Jian Anning remained alive, drove her insane.

As the police took her away, Jian Anning immediately turned around.

The blood on the ground was shocking, like a winding stream flowing down the mountain path.

"Si, Situ Xuan!" She rushed forward to try to lift him, only to find that his hands and feet were ice-cold, with only the blood flowing from him warm.

Soon, police personnel arrived to provide emergency treatment for his wound. The bullet had struck his shoulder, and coupled with his earlier exhaustion, he was almost completely unresponsive.

"Situ Xuan, don’t die! Wake up! Wake up!" Jian Anning’s trembling hands seemed to witness the moment of her father’s death! Her eyes were filled with red blood, as a life silently slipped away in front of her!

"Situ Xuan, I beg you, don’t die!" She held his hand tightly, trying to lift him, but ended up falling to the ground herself, unable to lift him.

Regardless, Situ Xuan had saved her time and again. If this time he really died because of her... she’d never be happy for the rest of her life!

"Situ Xuan, wake up, I beg you!"

Even Yu Zexiao, despite his hatred for Situ Xuan, felt a mix of emotions seeing him lying silently in a pool of blood. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

He understood that this kind of life-saving grace, no matter the depth of hatred, could dissolve it. Moreover, he was truly grateful to Situ Xuan—without him, the one who would have been shot was Jian Anning!
