Fiennes frowned, his pair of deep blue eyes dimly gleaming as he looked at the man at the opposite table imperceptibly.
The prince was really acting out of character today. It was surprising enough that he had said he wanted to have lunch together, but now he actually took the initiative to hand Su Wan a tissue...
If this happened to someone else, it would not be surprising at all. However, it was too shocking when it happened to the emperor's son who always kept strangers away.
But the Emperor's son just sat on the chair calmly, as if nothing had happened.
However, no matter how hard Fiennes tried, he could not guess what the prince was thinking at the moment.
It can only be attributed to the fact that the emperor's mood is capricious and he does things without following any rules.
Seeing that the prince had put down his chopsticks, Su Wan also sat quietly beside him, with a calm look as if he was watching his nose and his heart.
Since they were not eating anymore, Fiennes simply put down his chopsticks.
He stood up and curled the corners of his lips towards the couple opposite him, revealing a perfect smile.
"Your Highness, since we have finished lunch, let's say goodbye. Miss Su and I have something else to do."
Fiennes thought that the prince would just nod and turn around, but he didn't expect him to suddenly ask a question.
The other person's voice was clear and cold, like the wind blowing past your ears in early winter, vague and a little chilly.
"What's going on between you and her?"
For some reason, after hearing these few words, Fiennes' heart sank inexplicably, and he had a bad premonition.
Why is the Emperor's son suddenly so interested in his affairs today
First he asked if he could have dinner, and now he's asking about his schedule.
Could it be that what happened last night caused His Majesty the Prince to become more wary of the Siswell family and prepare to test his and Tia's future plans nearby
There was a dark light in Fiennes' eyes. He suppressed the worries in his heart and reported to the prince very frankly.
"Nothing. I promised to bring Miss Su a piece of Silver Tear Ore, but I happened to forget it at home. I'm going to ask Miss Su to go home with me to get it."
In an instant, Su Wan saw the man next to her looking at her, his eyes like the deep sea, making it impossible to glimpse the emotions underneath.
Su Wan bit the corner of her lip, not knowing what Jiang Xuecheng meant.
However, soon, Su Wan was shocked!
"Since it's not an important matter, Fiennes, please lend me Su Wan for the afternoon."
The male voice was indifferent and cold, neither loud nor soft, and he spoke nonchalantly, as if he was describing a very simple weather situation.
What does it mean to borrow yourself for an afternoon
Su Wan's eyes suddenly widened, she turned her head in surprise and looked up at the man next to her.
Jiang Xuecheng sat beside her indifferently, his brows were calm, and his flawless cheeks looked like the most perfect work of God.
She swallowed, not understanding what Jiang Xuecheng was up to.
And Fiennes, who was standing opposite Su Wan, suddenly changed his expression.
After all this time, it turns out that the person the prince is interested in is Su Wan.
Fiennes recalled that at the banquet, the prince had expressed his interest in the accompanist who played the piano, and at that time he said he wanted to borrow it for two days.
So, are you more interested in seeing the real person now
Fiennes glanced at the Emperor's Son and Su Wan hesitantly. Seeing the same undisguised shock on Su Wan's face, he breathed a sigh of relief and then moved his gaze to the Emperor's Son.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid this depends on Miss Su's opinion. I can't make the decision for Miss Su."
Although the ore can be delivered at any time, Su Wan sat in the store for three hours and was unwilling to leave, which showed that he really wanted the ore.
So Fiennes was betting that Su Wan would go with him.
He could see that there was a hint of fear in Su Wan's expression when he looked at the Emperor's son.
Although it is not very obvious, it can still be observed from Su Wan's every move.
Upon hearing this, the young prince raised his eyelids indifferently and looked towards Su Wan.
"Su Wan, do you want to come with me? I'm very interested in your piano skills. Although Silver Tear Ore is relatively rare on the market, if you need it, I can always have someone give it to you."
Fiennes had never expected that the Emperor's son would directly tell Su Wan that he could give her the Silver Tear Mine. Isn't this clearly an attempt to steal someone? !
If it wasn't at the banquet, I would have heard the Emperor say that he was interested in the person who played the piano.
Otherwise, Fiennes would have thought that the prince had some other intentions towards Su Wan.
Fiennes sighed helplessly in his heart. Well, it seemed that he could only blame himself for his bad luck.
Su Wan looked at the extremely familiar yet extremely unfamiliar face in front of her, her expression dazed.
Okay, now the ball is thrown to her, does she want to catch it
Although Jiang Xuecheng's voice was calm and without any ripples, Su Wan had been with him for such a long time that she knew best that this man was actually very strong in his bones.
He doesn't like or allow others to go against his wishes.
Su Wan opened her lips with some difficulty.
"Since Your Highness likes the piano I play, then you are my soulmate. I am willing to go with Your Highness."
In fact, she had to report to the Divine Court sooner or later. It made no difference if she reported one day earlier or later. It was just that the situation when they met today was a little awkward.
As soon as Su Wan finished speaking, she looked at Fiennes apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Master Fiennes."
Fiennes could only smile helplessly. It was his fault. If he hadn't been late, the Emperor's son wouldn't have been involved.
But what on earth is this? My luck is just too bad!
If I had known earlier that the prince liked to listen to the zither, I would have given him seven or eight zither players, and there wouldn't be such an awkward situation like today.
He wanted to spend more time with Su Wan and develop some feelings for her, but it was ruined like this!
Really!
…
Su Wan stood beside Jiang Xuecheng. She waved and said goodbye to Fiennes with a smile.
As soon as Fiennes's maglev car disappeared from her sight, she suddenly heard a low voice next to her, with undisguised sarcasm.
"Why, you can't bear to part with it?"
Su Wan was stunned for half a second before she realized what Jiang Xuecheng was saying.
Su Wan frowned, not understanding why Jiang Xuecheng was so sarcastic. She felt very uncomfortable.
"Your Highness, you think too much."
Before Su Wan finished speaking, the man who was three steps away from her suddenly walked forward.
Sensing Jiang Xuecheng approaching, Su Wan suddenly felt an indescribable pressure.
Sometimes she felt that Jiang Xuecheng being too tall was not a good thing. It was like a shadow covering the sky, making it difficult for her to breathe.
The man lowered his head and glanced at Su Wan's beautiful and clean face, with obvious indifference in his eyes.
"Su Wan, you said before that you admired me, but why did you pretend not to know me in the cafe?"
Su Wan's pupils widened immediately when he heard this!
Come on, who was the first to pretend not to know whom
Before you randomly accuse someone of something, you should first clarify the situation, okay
