The King's Enchanting-Chapter 1627 - 1640: Severing All Ties (Part 4)

Cheng Tingting, despite holding grudges against her for many years, can ignore them, but once the law is broken, she certainly won’t compromise.

The two of them didn’t say much and quickly tidied up to rest. After such an incident, Yu Zexiao, who initially wanted to continue entangling with her joyfully, lost his mood too. At the thought of this, Yu Zexiao had no goodwill toward the imminent arrival of Jian Panying.

----------------------

The next day, at Central Cafe.

Jian Panying and Cheng Juye arrived early, sitting in the most prominent spot near the entrance, waiting eagerly.

After a short wait, Yu Zexiao and Jian Anning finally arrived. Perhaps to diminish Jian Panying and Cheng Juye’s spirits, Yu Zexiao specially employed his makeup artist to carefully style Jian Anning. At this moment, she appeared before them in a white Chanel little black dress, overlaid with a Burberry British-style cape. She wore knee-high boots, and her neck and hair were adorned with a white fox fur hat and scarf, looking both warm and fashionable, with a hint of cuteness.

Her face was flushed red from the cold, looking like a tempting apple. Held tightly by Yu Zexiao, he didn’t need mention, having been in the entertainment industry for many years, his outfit was effortlessly accomplished. Dressed in simple black and white Givenchy, his hair styled with a rebellious flair, combined with his slightly upturned lips, he seemed to be mocking something.

As the two of them walked in, even if someone didn’t recognize Yu Zexiao, they were equally stunned by this striking pairing!

Handsome man, beautiful woman, with extraordinary temperament, plus figure-flattering outfits, they appeared exceptional, even the Austrians were somewhat astonished by these quite outstanding people from Huaxia Country.

—let alone Jian Panying and Cheng Juye, sitting at the entrance.

At the first sight of her daughter, Jian Panying almost couldn’t believe it. Could this woman, looking so distinguished and full of confidence, be the same silent, simple woman from the past who didn’t even know how to dress?

Although they had met before in Toronto, where her transformation was also significant, it was absolutely nothing like today, which made her feel astounded—as if she had "been reborn"!

If Jian Anning hadn’t called out "Mom" afterward, Jian Panying wouldn’t have dared to recognize her!

This feeling was as if she had been recast in a furnace, her appearance to attire, to demeanor, and her entire image, completely overturned what she imagined!

"Come, sit over here." Jian Panying said nothing, but Cheng Juye spoke warmly, pulling out the chair beside him, his wrinkles at the corners of his eyes looking extraordinarily exaggerated as he smiled.

Having not seen them for a while, it was almost hard for Jian Anning to recognize these two people looking both old and haggard, dressed so casually; could they be the usually quite proud Jian Panying and Cheng Juye!

It seemed they were dressed poorly and in low spirits, probably due to hiding from debts. Cheng Juye, ordinarily so mindful of upkeep, had several more fine lines at the corner of his eyes, his eyes red from exhaustion, white hairs at his temples, and Jian Panying, whose down jacket even had a hole, exposing the white feathers inside.
