The King's Enchanting-Chapter 1593 - 1606: Surgery (5)

"With something like this happening, I couldn’t be by her side, causing her to almost die; instead, it was Situ Xuan who came to protect her. No matter how you look at it, I, as her man, failed in my duty. Because of this, no matter how much I dislike Situ Xuan, I am grateful to him. What’s more, he only asked that Anning and I not marry within five years; he didn’t ask that we can’t be together. In that situation... I think, even I might not refuse such a request."

Indeed, if Situ Xuan had asked Jian Anning to marry him directly, she might have hesitated. But if he only asked them not to marry, anyone with even a hint of understanding should agree.

"Then hurry up and get him treated! Once he’s well, let’s see what reason he has to stop you two!"

Yu Zexiao let out a bitter laugh, fearing it’s not that simple. Not to mention anything else, just take Jian Anning, that stubborn one. To fulfill her father’s promise, she truly gave up her beloved piano, never touching any music for ten years. Even if Situ Xuan gets better, she might hold to her promise to Situ Xuan and not marry him within five years.

However, not marrying doesn’t mean they can’t be together, doesn’t mean—they can’t live together, have children.

For Huaxia Country, they might still lean towards such a formal marriage relationship. But abroad, it’s common for people to live together and have children even when not married.

He doesn’t believe it; Jian Anning’s feelings for him can’t be less than Situ Xuan’s request! Since Situ Xuan dared to prove his love at the cost of his life, then Yu Zexiao can use a lifetime to bring her happiness and joy!

Also—if Situ Xuan wants to see them flaunt their love, he’ll flaunt it right in front of him! Situ Xuan still thinks that by not marrying, he has a chance? Dream on!

"Anyway, handle this as you see fit." Hearing this, Yu Jingxi couldn’t help but stand up, "Your mom and I are not in a hurry, but whether your grandparents can accept it, we cannot say."

Yu Zexiao nodded: "Dad, I know. Don’t worry, Anning and I have no plans to give up on our relationship. No matter what, during Situ Xuan’s treatment period, it’s inappropriate to propose marriage. Everything will be discussed once he’s completely discharged."

Jian Anning didn’t expect to sleep for an entire day and night.

During this period, the troupe visited several times, and the police came once to have her record detailed notes. A personal doctor was brought in to check her health, and finally, Situ Xuan had passed the most dangerous 24 hours; his condition was stable and should soon be able to move to a regular ward.

Yu Zexiao stayed by her side without leaving, accompanied by Master John Gruber in the final recording step, their duet. Perhaps because Master John Gruber had always had a particular fondness for Jian Anning and heard of everything she went through, the originally stern master was particularly indulgent towards Yu Zexiao and Jian Anning; not only did he not scold them, but he came all the way from his villa in Hallstatt to practice with Yu Zexiao.
