The King's Enchanting
Chapter 1706 - 1719: Reunion (Part 3)
He had no dissatisfaction with Situ Xuan, on the contrary, he quite admired him.
——At least, their son couldn’t put on such a show back then!
"Hmm." Yu Jingxi, after all, was an elder and couldn’t really take a child seriously. He nodded and asked another question, "How is your father?"
Situ Xuan’s expression slightly changed after being asked this, and after a moment, he nodded gracefully, "His health is pretty good recently, recuperating in Florida."
Ever since that year when Situ Che had a car accident, his health has not been very good. Were it not for this, he wouldn’t have handed over all his power to his son. Having weathered many storms, he was evidently much more composed than his hot-blooded son. However, he didn’t expect his son to still hold such a deep grudge against the Yu Family and take a series of retaliatory actions against Yu Zexiao and the entire Yu Family.
Yu Jingxi nodded, "That’s good."
After that, he didn’t say much else. After all, he and Situ Che were still somewhat on opposing sides, even if the hatred wasn’t so intense; they definitely weren’t fond of each other.
For a moment, both sides fell silent. It was Situ Xuan who hesitated, then handed a nicely wrapped gift to Jian Anning.
"I don’t have much to give you. This is a small token of my regard, happy birthday."
He deliberately lowered his voice, as if whispering something to Jian Anning, and intentionally avoided mentioning their engagement, only wishing her a happy birthday.
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, a trace of displeasure flashed in Yu Zexiao’s eyes.
And when Situ Xuan handed over the gift, whether it was due to the angle or not, Yu Zexiao clearly saw Situ Xuan seemed to have touched her small hand when Jian Anning received the gift. Then the two separated immediately without further entanglement.
Seeing this scene, Yu Zexiao was so angry that he wished he could drag Situ Xuan out and beat him up! Meanwhile, satisfied to see Yu Zexiao’s face turn into an ashen blue, Situ Xuan curled his lips and took a step back, leaving with a sentence, "Don’t forget, you promised me that I would be the godfather of your children in the future."
Jian Anning was a little taken aback, seemingly recalling that he had indeed requested this while they were on the run. She nodded, "I know."
"What, you actually agreed to let him be the godfather of our children?" Upon this, Yu Zexiao was not having it, angrily casting a glance at the side at Jian Anning, seemingly a bit annoyed.
Jian Anning couldn’t explain much, she just nodded. Only then did Situ Xuan smile contentedly and added, "Anning, if you ever feel down about anything, feel free to come to me. I’ll give you the most support. The doors of the Situ Family are always open for you."
Isn’t this practically telling her that if Yu Zexiao were ever to treat her poorly, Situ Xuan was always ready to open his arms to welcome her anytime, anywhere? If he’s not careful, might his wife become someone else’s?
Yu Zexiao was almost furious, immediately raising his fist, charging forward, "The matters between Anning and me are none of your concern!"
Situ Xuan didn’t even look at him, but Jian Anning held Yu Zexiao’s hand, her voice calm, while her face bore a faint smile:
