Chapter 2703: Raising Flags Everywhere
Shock rippled through the crowd. No one had expected the domineering Devil Sect’s master to be willing to share a husband, but on second thought, this was to be expected. All of the women gathered here were extraordinary in their ways, but they'd still fallen for Zu An anyway.
But we didn’t expect her to be able to put down her enmity with Yan Xuehen for him. She must have truly fallen in love with Ah Zu. She must be trying to motivate him so he’ll grit his teeth and get through any danger he faces in Dreamland.
The ball had been thrown into Yan Xuehen’s court. All the gazes on her made her nervous. In truth, she didn’t think her concerns mattered now that Zu An’s safety was at stake. She might have said something similar to Yun Jianyue in the heat of the moment if they were alone, but how could she do so in front of so many people?
Amid her hesitation, her face turned pale. It suddenly occurred to her that she had lost.
The demoness has the guts to confess to Ah Zu in public, yet I’m unable to do the same. Everyone will think that my feelings for Ah Zu are less than hers. Even if Ah Zu understands my quandary, he might still feel uncomfortable about it.
Yan Xuehen felt bitter regret, but her pride wouldn’t allow her to change her tune. As a result, she just stood completely still on the spot. She felt so awkward that her fingernails were digging into her palm.
Zu An smiled. He grabbed both Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen’s hands and said, “Big sister Yun has said such words, and big sister Yan has implicitly acknowledged it. Looks like it’s a blessing in disguise for me.”
Yan Xuehen felt warmth in her heart. Ah Zu is as caring as ever. He resolved my regret and awkwardness with such ease. Now that I think about it, he was also involved in Manman’s actions. He's put a lot of thought into resolving my reservations.
Having thought things through, she didn’t shake off his hand. The warmth transmitted through his palm made her nervous heart slowly calm down.
Yun Jianyue eyed their hands in astonishment. Having been enemies for so many years, she could see through Yan Xuehen’s inner turmoil. I thought ice sculpture would shake off his hand. Tsk, I've already won here, but Ah Zu is taking such good care of her.
