Chapter 653 - The Fish Had Taken The Bait
Chapter 653: The Fish Had Taken The Bait
Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes darkened when he felt the warm lips under his palm.
He did not know why, but he did not want to listen to Su Wan’s thunderous oath, afraid that this woman was making him so uncomfortable.
Su Wan’s confident look just now almost made the man’s faith waver. He even felt for a moment that the child in Su Wan’s belly could really be his.
But how was that possible?
A month ago, he had never seen Su Wan, and it was even more impossible that something had happened between them…
The emperor pursed his thin lips tightly. He slowly lowered his eyes to hide the thick jealousy in his heart.
“Su Wan, in the next two weeks, you should take care of yourself. I hope that the excuse you’ve thought of in the end won’t disappoint me.”
As he spoke, Jiang Xuecheng let go of Su Wan.
When Su Wan heard Jiang Xuecheng’s words, she was instantly stunned. When Jiang Xuecheng let go of her hand that was covering her mouth, Su Wan could not react in time.
Until Jiang Xuecheng resolutely walked out of the door.
His back was long and slender, and his footsteps were as heavy as a thousand pounds. He did not look back, nor did he have the slightest bit of hesitation to part from this place.
Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng’s back as he turned to leave, and endless bitterness spread in her heart.
Just as Su Wan was feeling disappointed, there was a loud bang not far away.
It was Jiang Xuecheng closing the door violently.
Although Jiang Xuecheng had a cold and arrogant temper, he had always been gentle and elegant. Su Wan had never seen him slam the door.
The heavy slam of the door echoed in Su Wan’s mind, causing her head to hurt.
Su Wan blinked in a daze. Her heart suddenly pounded non-stop. In an instant, Su Wan had a bad feeling.
Could it be that Jiang Xuecheng would never come back to see her again after this?
No, how could that be!
Su Wan shook her head hard. However, the malicious and cold gaze of Jiang Xuecheng from before was still lingering in her mind.
What was she going to do for the next two weeks?
Su Wan hugged the quilt tighter on her body. She stretched out her hand to support her drowsy head. Suddenly, she felt a little lost about her future.
It should, it should only last for two weeks…
She could not wait for time to pass faster, faster, so that Jiang Xuecheng would know that it was his child sooner.
Su Wan kept comforting herself. As long as the DNA test was done by the eighth week, everything would be fine, and everything would return to its original track. She could also take the opportunity to describe the things on Earth to Jiang Xuecheng.
There wouldn’t be any more animosity between the two of them, right?
The faint light shone on Su Wan’s face, making her pale face seem to glow.
…
The high priest had been standing outside the ward the whole time, looking at Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan without saying a word.
She had excellent hearing. Such a thin door naturally couldn’t stop her from listening to the conversation between the two people in the ward clearly.
As soon as the emperor came out, he saw the high priest standing not far away, looking at him with a smile.
“High priest, you haven’t left yet?”
Jiang Xuecheng restrained his emotions and restrained the hostility he had shown earlier.
The high priest smiled and nodded, and then his voice suddenly became cold, and even somewhat aggressive.
“Your Highness, you and I both know that that woman is just trying to buy time. Let alone two weeks, even if she carries the child for ten months, when the baby in her belly is born, the fake will not become the real thing.”
When Jiang Xuecheng heard this, he slightly clenched his hands under his sleeves.
How could he not know this principle? If it was his, then it was his. If it was not his, then no matter how much he lied to himself, it would be useless…
The emperor raised his eyes and indifferently glanced at the middle-aged woman beside him. His expression was cold and arrogant.
“This is my personal matter. There’s no need for the high priest to worry about it.”
“Who said that this is only your personal matter!”
The high priest coldly sneered. Her voice was even more decisive and filled with a sense of intimidation.
“This woman is trying to deceive you. The child in her womb is even more disgraceful to the dignity of the God’s Palace. Since she’s dead set that this child is yours, then two weeks later, I’ll find someone to take charge of the DNA test!”
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at the high priest in surprise. He did not understand why she was so excited.
However, he was currently immersed in the pain of being betrayed by Su Wan. He did not have the time to think about all the possibilities.
After a while, the high priest heard a cold voice.
“As you wish.”
To Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan’s delay of two weeks was really just a delay of two weeks. Whether it was him or the high priest who sent people to check it, it would not change anything.
Because from the beginning to the end, Jiang Xuecheng had never believed that the child was his. After all, it was too absurd to have a pregnancy in a dream!
When the high priest heard that Jiang Xuecheng had relented, her pitch-black eyes lit up for a moment, and the smile on her lips deepened.
Ha, the fish had taken the bait.
Now, she could not help but look forward to the results of the DNA test two weeks later.
If Jiang Xuecheng had nothing to do with the child in Su Wan’s Belly, then she would directly hand Su Wan and her child over to Jiang Xuecheng for disposal.
If in the end, according to the DNA, it was determined to be Jiang Xuecheng’s child…
Things had turned out as she expected. If she could indirectly prove Su Wan’s identity, then Su Wan, this woman, would be even more untenable!
She had plenty of ways to break up the two of them.
After all, the young man next to her was the heir she had chosen. He was very useful. Finding a noble marriage would bring him much more value than finding an ordinary person.
Jiang Xuecheng had no intention of observing the high priest’s mood at the moment. He nodded slightly at her and immediately walked out.
The high priest had a deep smile on her face. Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng was the first to leave, she quickly suppressed his strange mood and quickly followed Jiang Xuecheng’s footsteps.
Once the two of them reached the hall, Fiennes and Diya who were waiting there instantly stood up from their seats.
After Diya heard the news that Su Wan was pregnant, no matter how much Fiennes tried to persuade her, she refused to leave. Fiennes had no choice but to stay here and watch over her to prevent any accidents from happening again.
“High priest, Your Highness.”
Diya and Fiennes, the two siblings, greeted them in unison.
The high priest nodded at the two of them. However, Jiang Xuecheng was not in the mood at the moment. He ignored them and walked away.
There seemed to be something wrong with the development of the script.
Diya paid full attention to her lover’s expression. Her mind was so sharp that she could almost see the dark expression on the emperor’s face at first glance.
It seemed that not only was he unhappy, but there was also a heavy hostility between his brows, as if he was going to eat someone.
His Highness was obviously looking forward to it when he had not entered earlier. Why did he become like this the moment he came out?
Diya and her brother exchanged a look, and the two of them looked at each other in dismay.
Taking advantage of the fact that the high priest had not left, Diya hurriedly adjusted her smile and quickly stopped the high priest.
“High priest, what happened to His Highness? Did Miss Su upset him?”
