Chapter 714 - The Relationship Between Ming Ye And Jiang
Chapter 714: The Relationship Between Ming Ye And Jiang
Ming Ye immediately raised his hand to interrupt Su Wan’s question. His emerald green eyes narrowed slightly, flickering with a frightening light.
“I have indeed met the emperor before, but compared to meeting him, I have heard more about him. Su Wan, you can ask me questions, but you must first answer one of my questions.”
Ming Ye’s voice was as deep as a cello, but that gloomy expression made Su Wan tremble in fear.
Su Wan opened her mouth in shock. She frowned slightly, but in the end, she nodded in agreement.
“What do you want to ask? Go ahead.”
The slightly bright light swirled around Ming Ye’s face. His face was half-bright and half-dark, making it impossible to guess what this man was thinking.
“Didn’t you say that man was your husband? Didn’t you spend all your efforts to find him? Since you found him, why did you leave him?”
Ming Ye’s voice was light, like the wind and the moon. There was no trace of gossip, as if he was asking about the weather today.
When Su Wan heard this question, her clear and bright eyes suddenly dimmed.
Su Wan lowered her head slightly and her fingers slowly tightened. Even breathing became a little difficult.
Yes, she had put in a lot of effort to find Jiang Xuecheng because she wanted to get him to remember her.
But why did it become like this later?
Su Wan’s heart beat violently twice, and her eyes were slightly hot. In just two or three seconds, thick tears gathered.
Ming Ye did not know that he was exposing Su Wan’s scars.
This man’s world was extremely simple. It was either black or white, and he had never touched emotions before.
He thought that this question would be easy to answer, but Su Wan looked like she was about to cry. Ming Ye was at a loss.
Ming Ye looked at Su Wan blankly, and his voice unconsciously softened a little.
“Su Wan, what’s wrong?”
Su Wan bit the corner of her lips, and the color on her face finally returned bit by bit.
She shook her head at Ming Ye.
“I’m fine.”
And Su Wan forced the tears that were about to fall just now back. She couldn’t let others see her as a joke.
Su Wan took two deep breaths, and finally calmed down her original emotions. However, her shining eyes were already dim.
“I escaped. He… didn’t remember me.”
Su Wan paused for a moment. Her expression was empty, and her unfocused eyes were staring somewhere.
“And… I’m not going to let him remember me. It’s no longer suitable for us to continue being together.”
She lost her child with Jiang Xuecheng. Even if the person who made the decision was the high priest, it could be said that Jiang Xuecheng was the one who caused it…
That man did not believe her. He had clearly promised that no matter what the outcome was, he would wait for her to come out and protect her child first.
But what was the result?!
Su Wan’s lips curled into a bitter smile. Her heart twitched and she felt an intense pain.
That pain was as if her child had been ripped out of her body…
No matter how much time had passed since this incident, she would never be able to overcome this hurdle.
Because there were some things that one could never get over. Even if the wound on her stomach was scabbed, the wound on her heart would not heal. It would only hurt faintly, constantly reminding her of the cruel facts.
Su Wan did not mention who this “he” was, but Ming Ye and Su Wan both knew very well.
But Ming Ye did not understand why Su Wan had to act like this.
Su Wan was clearly bent on finding her husband back then, and as an outsider, he could understand that Su Wan seemed to love her husband very much.
It was not easy for her to find him, but it had only been a short month. How could things have taken a turn for the worse?!
“What happened?”
Ming Ye’s eyes revealed confusion. He sat beside Su Wan and looked at the sadness in Su Wan’s eyes.
When Su Wan heard this, her long eyelashes trembled slightly. She felt as if she was being exposed to the sun. Her appearance was withered, like rotten wood.
Su Wan’s nails slowly dug into her palms. The sharp pain finally made Su Wan’s heart feel better.
She looked at Ming Ye and shook her head lightly.
“Nothing happened. It’s just that it’s not suitable anymore.”
The reason why Su Wan wanted to separate from Jiang Xuecheng was not only laughable, it was even more pathetic. Her heart was already riddled with holes and she did not want to expose it to outsiders.
Not suitable?!
Although Ming Ye did not understand the so-called feelings at all, even an outsider like Ming Ye felt that Su Wan’s reason just now was too lame.
Su Wan’s expression just now was too heavy. It was obvious that she had her own difficulties. How could it be covered up by simple incompatibility?!
Ming Ye’s slender brows furrowed. He stared fixedly at Su Wan, wanting to ask more questions, but was interrupted by Su Wan with a wave of her hand.
Su Wan withdrew the sadness between her brows and her expression became solemn.
“Ming Ye, do you have any relationship with Jiang… The Emperor?”
Su Wan paused for a moment. Her eyes flickered slightly, trying her best to find a suitable excuse.
“What I mean is, don’t you think you look a lot like the emperor? The two of you…”
Su Wan wondered if Ming Ye was Jiang Wei’s lost illegitimate child!
If that was really the case, the Jiang family would be crazy. All three of them were sons, and thre was even drama of having an illegitimate child. Moreover, it involved such a distant alien planet.
However, Ming Ye definitely did not know who Jiang Wei was…
Su Wan could not help but let her imagination run wild. While her thoughts were running wild, she did not see Ming Ye’s increasingly gloomy expression.
Ming Ye snorted coldly. His face was cold and hard, and his fists were tightly clenched. Even his joints were turning green.
“You can change your question. I can’t answer this!”
Ah?!
Was it that hard to answer?
Su Wan’s thoughts were churning. She did not know that she had also stabbed the deepest scar in Ming Ye’s heart.
Ming Ye’s hand tightened. He glanced at Su Wan with an extremely gloomy expression.
“I can point out a way for you to find an answer to this question. Why don’t you ask the High Priest when you’re free? In this world, no one knows better than her…”
When he mentioned the High Priest, Ming Ye’s emerald eyes were slightly red, like the eyes of a trapped beast. They were filled with pain and unconcealable hatred.
Did you even need to say that?!
When Su Wan heard this, her face instantly turned bitter — she knew that the High Priest would definitely know the best, but how could the high priest care about her?!
Su Wan glanced at Ming Ye and asked carefully.
“Does… does the emperor know about your relationship with him?”
Ming Ye closed his eyes as if he was treating Su Wan like air.
Su Wan’s mouth twitched. She told herself not to get angry with a patient, but she was still sad.
If Ming Ye was willing to tell her the answer, she wouldn’t have to guess blindly. Maybe she wouldn’t have to go this far with Jiang Xuecheng.
But looking at Ming Ye, maybe she was forcing him too much?
