Chapter 814: Fragrant Clothes and Shadow, Borrowing a Knife to Hurt Someone
The smile on Tiya's lips deepened.
She glanced at the slightly hanging silver tassel outside the cushion, and she couldn't help showing a look of gloating on her face.
Ah……
It is said that Mrs. Ye of the Durfei family has a hot temper. Because she got a son at an old age, she dotes on her unsatisfactory son to the extreme!
Even though Young Master Keller is uneducated, smokes, drinks, gambles and plays with women, doesn’t Mrs. Ye still love her son, the devil incarnate, as if he is a treasure?
A few days ago, in the underground auction market, Master Keller was beaten violently by the emperor, and two ribs were broken. He is still recovering in the hospital in a very sick condition!
Presumably Mrs. Ye, who dotes on her son, must be full of anger, right?
A trace of anger passed through Tiya's eyes.
Her hands clenched into fists.
I hope Mrs. Ye of the Durfei family will not disappoint her expectations!
After all, it took a lot of effort for her to send someone to steal such a pair of ruby pendants from Mrs. Ye!
Just for today!
Just when Tiya was thinking about it with joy, she suddenly heard her brother's call from not far away.
"Tiya, the banquet hasn't started yet, what are you doing over there? Come here quickly!"
"I'm coming!"
Tiya turned to look back at Fiennes, quickly calmed down her expression and ran towards Fiennes, but her eyebrows and eyes could not help but fly up, and her face could not hide the joy.
Fiennes glanced at Tia hesitantly, wondering why Tia, who looked like a doormat just now, was suddenly so happy.
"Is there anything to be happy about?"
"Of course there is, and good things come in pairs."
Tia raised her eyes at Fiennes and smiled, her amber eyes clear and bright.
With the high priest here today, she would be officially engaged to the Emperor's son, and she could also see Su Wan make a fool of herself. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?
Fiennes glanced at Tiya helplessly, thinking that his sister was looking forward to marrying Jiang Xuecheng.
Thinking of the newly promoted emperor's son, Fiennes's blue eyes darkened, as unpredictable as a pool of water.
——Only a silly girl like Tiya can dream about this marriage. In fact, it is just used to contain the Siswell family.
——It would be fine if the emperor is kind to his sister, but if not...
Fiennes's expression was stern, and a hint of murderous intent quietly passed through his eyes.
He has never been optimistic about the marriage between Tiya and Jiang Xuecheng. Tiya has an arrogant temper. If possible, he would rather find a man for Tiya who knows the truth and can be a low-key person.
At least it's easy to control, right?
…
In a fully transparent viewing elevator.
Jiang Xuecheng reached out and held Su Wan's face with a serious expression.
"Wanwan, don't be sad. I believe you, but can you tell me everything you know about that man? He is the number one criminal wanted by the high priest. I'm afraid something might happen to you."
Su Wan was a little surprised when she heard this. She had always felt that Jiang Xuecheng was just a mobile jealous man. Asking this question so openly and honestly was undoubtedly a great improvement.
Su Wan collected her thoughts and began to tell Jiang Xuecheng about Ming Ye.
In fact, she knew very little about Ming Ye. The man was simply a mystery, but Su Wan didn't have the energy to understand it.
Su Wan could see that Ming Ye was not a bad person, but what he did was too dangerous. As a friend, Su Wan still hoped that Ming Ye would be safe.
After listening to Su Wan's narration, Jiang Xuecheng nodded thoughtfully.
From this point of view, the man who looks similar to me should have a deep connection with the high priest...
In the flash of lightning, a thought flashed through Jiang Xuecheng's mind.
——Why is the high priest so persistent in arresting Ming Ye, even to the point of taking action himself?
Recalling some of the inside stories of the laboratory that Dr. Li had said, an idea gradually came to Jiang Xuecheng's mind.
——If Ming Ye is found, it may help to cure the CHK No. 3 virus in Su Wan!
When Su Wan saw Jiang Xuecheng frowning and smiling, she couldn't help but reached out and pushed Jiang Xuecheng.
Did this man suddenly go crazy?
"Xicheng, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xuecheng looked down at Su Wan, his dark eyes locked on her tightly, as if there were skylight and cloud shadows flowing, and they contained too many emotions that were difficult to express.
Facing Jiang Xuecheng's disgusting eyes, Su Wan got goosebumps all over.
She always felt that something was wrong with Jiang Xuecheng recently. It was obvious that he was hiding something from her, but Su Wan had decided not to ask anymore.
"Why are you looking at me like that? It's a little weird..."
Su Wan frowned slightly, looking ignorant.
She knows nothing...
Jiang Xuecheng's heart felt sour, and he suddenly hugged Su Wan with such force that it felt as if Su Wan was being embedded in his bones.
"Wanwan, I love you."
His voice was soft, but every word was firm.
Regardless of whether Ming Ye knew about the CHK No. 3 virus or not, no matter how difficult the cure was, he would save her.
Su Wan was startled when he heard this, and was so frightened that he almost fainted.
——Although Jiang Xuecheng usually likes to mess around, he rarely expresses his feelings so straightforwardly verbally.
After Su Wan came to her senses, her heart was filled with emotion, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
It's both sweet and sour.
Indescribable complex feelings.
Su Wan hugged Jiang Xuecheng back, put her head on Jiang Xuecheng's shoulder, and responded firmly.
"I love you too, only you, forever."
Since it’s disgusting, let’s be disgusting together.
Su Wan gently rubbed Jiang Xuecheng's shoulder, but couldn't help but reveal a pleasant smile on her face.
…
While Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan were chatting with each other, they finally arrived at their destination.
She and Jiang Xuecheng walked across the cobblestone ground and soon saw a large screen with flowing water, splashing light under the crystal lamp.
The place where the main banquet was held was a hanging garden, with several branch-shaped crystal chandeliers casting brilliant light, reflecting the flowers all around and giving them a subtle fragrance.
Because of Jiang Xuecheng's high status, according to etiquette rules, he and Su Wan were not in the same guest area when the banquet began.
Jiang Xuecheng was worried that Su Wan would be squeezed out, but Su Wan didn't care about these trivial matters and just let Jiang Xuecheng go about his own business first.
Su Wan followed her invitation and sat among a group of noble ladies.
At the gorgeous long table, cups and cups were exchanged, and people drank and drank.
Su Wan looked at the faces of those people chatting and laughing in a daze, not knowing whether they were genuine or fake.
However, Su Wan could tell that when she came over, everyone was ignoring her intentionally or unintentionally, and even gave her some meaningful looks from time to time.
From time to time they whispered a few words, seeming to be discussing her identity.
"Look, that's Su Wan, tsk tsk, look at it, he's actually sitting next to Mrs. Ye of the Durfei family, it's going to be a good show!"
