Chapter 821 Meeting Like This for the First Time
Fiennes felt a little worried when he saw his sister rushing out like crazy. He was about to chase her, but he saw the high priest walking in at some point.
Fiennes was startled, and his whole body immediately stopped.
But Tiya's eyes were blurry with tears, as if she didn't recognize it was the high priest at all. She bumped into the high priest with her body, but still ran away without looking back.
The gorgeous Persian cat in the high priest's arms was frightened by Tiya. The cat gave a small scream and then jumped to the ground.
The high priest glanced at his cat distressedly, then turned his head and looked back at the direction Tiya was running to.
Tiya was probably so angry that she lost consciousness, so she stumbled all the way and quickly ran out of the sight of the high priest.
Fiennes originally wanted to go find Tia, but after thinking about today's occasion, Tia should not have anything happen to her, so he simply stayed to deal with the next thing.
——He really doesn’t want Tia and Jiang Xuecheng to get married, so if the high priest insists on a marriage, he will refuse it on the grounds that the emperor is too ruthless.
His silly and sweet sister is just a little bit petty. If she really becomes a pawn in the marriage, I am afraid that she will be used by the high priest to the point where nothing is left, let alone happiness.
Of course, on the other hand, Fiennes doesn't want Tia to ruin his plan.
…
After Tiya ran away like crazy, the entire banquet hall fell silent.
Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng stood side by side, holding hands, as if they would not be afraid even if the sky fell.
Fiennes, on the other hand, stood calmly alone in a corner, with no sign of panic on his face as if his sister was mad and ran away.
The high priest glanced at the people in the hall, her slender eyebrows twisted, and her eyes as silent as the night were filled with indescribable arrogance and indifference.
"What are you kidding about? What happened to Tiya? Why did she rush out crying?"
In fact, no matter who could describe it, the high priest could make a rough guess when he saw the way Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng were holding hands.
Hehe, Jiang Xuecheng really doesn’t know how to worry about himself!
Su Wan now has the CHK No. 3 virus in his body. How dare he resist the marriage so stubbornly!
High Priest Liu frowned deeper. She had never loved anyone and could not understand Jiang Xuecheng at all.
But in the view of the high priest, under normal circumstances, shouldn't Jiang Xuecheng follow her advice and decisively marry Tiya for the sake of Su Wan's life?
Which part went wrong?
Fiennes saw the high priest's sullen look. He took a step forward and was about to speak, but Jiang Xuecheng spoke first.
"High Priest, I want to marry Su Wan. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Fiennes was startled when he heard this. He turned back to look at Jiang Xuecheng and saw Jiang Xuecheng facing the high priest's gaze with great indifference.
It seems that these two people have not been so at odds before, right?
At least I can be polite on the surface...
Is that what happened?
Fiennes's heart skipped a beat when he thought of Jiang Xuecheng proposing to Su Wan so freely in public today. At first, he thought Jiang Xuecheng was ready to take on everything, but now it seems that he was forced to do so.
You know, the people present are all celebrities from aristocratic families. The significance of proposing on such an occasion is extraordinary, and you can't suppress it even if you want to!
Something that can make these two people completely tear each other apart...
Fiennes' eyes fell on the clasped fingers of Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan, and he was already making a silent calculation in his heart.
Mostly, it was because Su Wan was late...
I really don’t know what the high priest did to Su Wan to trigger the emperor’s anger.
It looks like things are getting more and more "interesting"...
Fiennes stroked his sleeves thoughtfully, and while the emperor's son and the high priest were at odds, he might be able to take advantage of this opportunity to advance his plan.
…
The high priest's face was condensed, and his pale lips had been pursed into a straight line.
Because she holds a high position, she has always kept her emotions and anger hidden. However, at this time, her elegant silhouette was so tight that anyone could see how unhappy the high priest was at this moment!
"Your Highness, you have to think clearly. Your fiancée ran out just now, and now there is no marriage partner for you here!"
The high priest's loud words brushed his ears. Jiang Xuecheng's expression froze, and his dark eyes suddenly darkened!
Everyone saw the cold expression of the high priest and knew that this was the prelude to the coming storm. They all looked at the situation with their eyes, nose and nose, not wanting to get into this trouble.
Although today's scene was lively, they were just the background for the supporting scenes, and they didn't want to get involved in this muddy water at all.
And Su Wan, who was standing next to Jiang Xuecheng, never expected that the high priest would actually say this!
This is equivalent to denying her marriage to Jiang Xuecheng in one sentence!
Su Wan's face paled slightly.
In fact, she didn't care about Jiang Xuecheng's current status at all, and she didn't have any nostalgia for this so-called emperor of the divine court.
Even if they are just ordinary people, as long as they are together, they can live well by their own abilities.
But now that he is under the control of the divine court, he has no freedom in anything. Even marriage matters depend on the face of the high priest!
Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan's look and knew that she must be uneasy. Jiang Xuecheng silently squeezed Su Wan's palm, indicating that Su Wan was there and she didn't have to be afraid.
Su Wan felt Jiang Xuecheng's small movement of squeezing her palm, and slightly curved her lips towards him, signaling Jiang Xuecheng not to worry.
What she was thinking about now was whether she could leave here with Jiang Xuecheng.
Su Wan knew that Jiang Xuecheng was not the kind of person who was greedy for power, but the power of the Holy Palace was indeed too broad. I was afraid that once the two of them left this place, they would be wanted all over the world.
The high priest naturally noticed the little actions of Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng.
She stroked the cat that returned to her arms, with obvious disgust in her eyes.
——This young man and woman don't seem to take themselves seriously at all.
But it doesn't matter, she has plenty of ways to handle these two people!
…
The long corridor is decorated with various exquisite and magnificent murals, and the space is filled with the aroma of various flowers and plants.
Tiya was crying while running, her beautiful face was full of tears, but she didn't care about her image at the moment and didn't even want to wipe them away.
She wants to go home, now, immediately, immediately!
Suddenly, she saw the door of the enclosed elevator in front of her being slowly closed.
There seemed to be a man's figure inside, wearing a black, white and gray waiter's uniform. Tiya couldn't see what he looked like clearly.
It's fine since the one in the elevator is a waiter, as long as she's not a noble who knows her!
She has suffered enough humiliation today!
"Wait a minute! I want to go in too!"
Tia shouted hurriedly. The man in the elevator seemed to raise his eyes and glanced at Tia after hearing this, but he still helped to press the switch.
