1407 Cancel the Engagement (2)
Ever since her actions against Xiaoya were made public by Sheng Xiao on the day of the intercontinental finals, Zhan Jianxue had expected Zhan Wuya to break up with her. Zhan Jianxue knew very well what kind of person Zhan Wuya was. It was precisely because Zhan Jianxue admired Zhan Wuya’s character that she loved him deeply.
Zhan Wuya was an upright man who couldn’t tolerate the fact that his fiancé was a despicable woman who hurt others because of jealousy.
Zhan Jianxue followed behind Zhan Wuya with a stiff expression.
At the top of the mountain, Ye Qingyang used a coat to wrap a few ugly pears that had been stung by honey. He bit off the holes and spat them out. After he took a bite of the sweet pear, he said, “Another good young man is about to join my bachelor tribe.”
When he heard this, a smug smile appeared on Feng Yuncheng’s handsome face as he said, “Anyway, that person isn’t me.”
Ye Qingyang rolled his eyes and muttered, “Be careful not to get dumped one day.” He smiled sinisterly at Feng Yuncheng as he said enthusiastically, “Our bachelor tribe will always welcome you.”
“I want to join the Husband and Wife Tribe.” After glaring at Ye Qingyang, Feng Yuncheng placed the fruit in his hand in his arms and said, “I have something to do.”
Seeing Feng Yuncheng walking down the mountain alone, Ye Qingyang narrowed his eyes and smiled thoughtfully.

On the other side, Zhan Wuya and Zhan Jianxue walked out of the valley one after another and arrived at the border between the valley and the grassland. The scenery here was beautiful and very suitable for a rendezvous.
Despite being in such a picturesque place, Zhan Jianxue couldn’t smile.
“Little Xue.” Zhan Wuya turned around and looked at her with a serious expression.
When Zhan Jianxue raised her head and met Zhan Wuya’s gaze, her trembling eyes couldn’t hide the fear and uneasiness in her heart.
What had to be said had to be said. Delay wouldn’t change the outcome.
Without any mental preparation, Zhan Wuya went straight to the point. “Little Xue, our engagement can’t continue.”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Jianxue swayed and almost lost her balance. Zhan Jianxue took a few steps back and leaned against the trunk of a low pine tree to stabilize her swaying body.
“Wuya, I’m willing to change.” Zhan Jianxue’s voice choked up and the tears that she had been holding back burst out at this moment. “Is it because I bullied Zhan Xiaoya that you’re angry with me and think that I’ve embarrassed you?”
Zhan Jianxue clenched her fists and said, “I can kneel down and apologize to her and beg for her forgiveness. I’m willing to swear to God that I won’t hurt her again. Wuya, you can’t do this to me.”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Wuya didn’t feel relieved. On the contrary, he felt even more disappointed in Zhan Jianxue. “Little Xue, you should indeed kneel down and apologize to Senior Sister Xiao Ya, but not for me, but because you hurt her.”
“Besides…” Zhan Wuya didn’t have the habit of carrying a handkerchief with him, so he walked towards Zhan Jianxue and wiped Zhan Jianxue’s tears with his sleeve.” Little Xue, you’re not only my fiancée, but you’re also the little princess of the War God Clan. You’re an independent woman. You’re very prone to jealousy, so you need to change your personality. But you shouldn’t change for me, but to let yourself become a better you. ”
Zhan Jianxue’s heart ached even more when she heard Zhan Wuya’s words.
“Wuya.” Zhan Jianxue held Zhan Wuya’s wrist with tears in her eyes. “Wuya, I’ve treated you as my idol and the person I admired the most since I was young. I really love you. You can’t abandon me. You can’t!”
“Mother abandoned me and left this world. Now, even you want to abandon me. Father treats me even more…” At the mention of Zhan Jiuxiao, Zhan Jianxue felt even more anguish. After she wiped her tears, she stood on her tiptoes to hug Zhan Wuya.
“Wuya, if even you don’t want me anymore, no one will care about me anymore.”
Her tears fell on Zhan Wuya’s neck.
It was wet and slightly warm.
This was a little girl he had watched grow up. Although Zhan Wuya was determined to break up with her, he couldn’t bear to see her cry so sadly. When he heard Zhan Jianxue’s words, Zhan Wuya’s heart skipped a beat and he couldn’t help but think of what Yu Huang had said to him that night.
Coincidentally, Zhan Jianxue mentioned Prime Emperor Jiuxiao, so Zhan Wuya asked, “Little Xue, what are you saying? Even if we break off the engagement, you will still be the apple of Mentor’s eye. Even if everyone else in the world doesn’t treat you well, Mentor will still dote on you and protect you.”
“He will always be your father.”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Jianxue, who had originally stopped crying, felt even more aggrieved. “Wuya…” Zhan Jianxue bit her rosy lips and raised her head slightly to look at Zhan Wuya. She looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. It was obvious that she had something to say, but out of fear, she didn’t dare to say it.
When Zhan Wuya saw her reaction, his heart sank.
Could it be that what Yu Huang said was true?
Zhan Wuya asked Zhan Jianxue with concern, “Little Xue, do you have something to say?” Zhan Wuya told Zhan Jianxue, “Even if we can’t become husband and wife, you will always be my junior. Mentor’s kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain, while Mentoress treated me as her own and doted on me like a child. If you feel wronged, feel free to tell me.”
“Even if I can’t shelter you from the wind and rain as your husband, as your senior brother, I will always protect you like an elder brother. You don’t have to keep it a secret from me.”
When she heard this, Zhan Jianxue’s defenses completely collapsed.
She covered her face with her hand and cried as she told Zhan Wuya, “Wuya, Daddy isn’t the person you and I think he is. Everyone says that Daddy dotes on me, and even I thought so. But… but…” Zhan Jianxue’s heart ached when she thought of what she had overheard outside the dining room that day.
