When Fiennes saw Su Wan's pleading expression, his expression suddenly froze.
Su Wan actually asked him to chase after the Emperor
Su Wan stared at Fiennes without blinking. She glanced at the man who was about to disappear around the corner of the corridor, and the expression on her face became more and more anxious.
"Can I? I sprained my ankle and can't run, but I really want to tell him something."
Fiennes lowered his head and glanced at Su Wan, as if trying to determine whether the anxiety on Su Wan's face was serious.
Su Wan called "Your Highness" so many times before, but the Prince did not turn around, which shows how much the Prince did not want to see Su Wan.
Is Su Wan acting like this just to beg His Highness for mercy
—Seeing that Su Wan looked like she was about to cry, if he hadn’t known that Su Wan was pregnant with a wild child of unknown origin, he might have really thought that Su Wan liked His Highness.
Fiennes pursed his lips, was silent for two seconds, and finally spoke.
"Okay, I'll call His Highness over for you. Miss Su, you sprained your foot. Please stay here and wait for me. Don't move."
Su Wan nodded, a sincere smile on her face.
"thanks, thanks!"
Su Wan hurriedly thanked him, because she knew that if she didn't let Fiennes call Jiang Xuecheng over, Jiang Xuecheng would probably not want to see her in the future.
She must explain it clearly to Jiang Xuecheng.
The misunderstanding between the two of them was already big enough. If it continued like this, she and Jiang Xuecheng would probably become more and more distant.
Fiennes saw the unconcealable joy and gratitude on Su Wan's face, and thought that it was because of this that he wanted to get the Emperor's son back, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
Fiennes looked at Su Wan again, and finally walked to the other side.
When Su Wan saw Fiennes disappear from her sight, she felt relieved, but then she felt indescribably heavy again.
She closed her eyes and pressed her body against the cold wall behind her, feeling lost and silent.
Jiang Xuecheng's face just now appeared in Su Wan's mind. In the flickering light and shadow, the man's face was handsome yet cold.
How bad is her luck? Why does she always run into Jiang Xuecheng at this time again and again!
Su Wan sighed, then dropped his hands in bewilderment.
It was just a bet, just a necklace was on the line, and now that arrogant young lady Tia didn't come to apologize to her, but ended up causing this kind of mess!
Trouble trouble trouble!
…
At the same time, on the other side, Fiennes was about to catch up with Jiang Xuecheng.
He took two deep breaths and shouted loudly, "Your Highness!"
Jiang Xuecheng heard Fiennes' voice, and after confirming that there was only one person behind him, he finally stopped slowly.
As soon as Fiennes stopped, he saw the prince turning his head not far away.
Suddenly, Fiennes met a pair of cold and indifferent eyes.
Those narrow and long black phoenix eyes flashed with a cold light like a sharp arrow in an instant, as if the person being stared at was just an ant on the ground that could be trampled on at will.
What a intimidating look!
It makes people feel tight in their hearts and their throats dry!
Fiennes felt as if this gaze was piercing his back, as if it carried real murderous intent, which almost made him subconsciously want to surrender and then flee.
However, Fiennes was used to the ups and downs of life. Although he was shocked by Jiang Xuecheng's eyes at first, it only took a second or two. Fiennes seemed unaware of the murderous intent and a nonchalant smile appeared on his face.
"Your Highness, didn't you hear Miss Su calling you just now?"
Jiang Xuecheng looked away indifferently. In a flash, Jiang Xuecheng's eyes became indifferent and returned to their usual calm look.
"I didn't hear it. What happened to her?"
Jiang Xuecheng looked indifferent when he asked the question, as if he had no interest in Su Wan at all.
Fiennes's lips curled into a smile with a barely perceptible irony.
—Su Wan shouted so loudly just now, and they were not far away from each other. With His Excellency the Emperor’s hearing ability, how could he not have heard it
However, Fiennes would not expose Jiang Xuecheng, after all, he had already been given a way out.
There is no doubt that His Highness is still curious about Su Wan.
"Miss Su just twisted her ankle. I don't know what happened. Why don't you tell her in person?"
Jiang Xuecheng was stunned when he heard this. Before he had time to think, a question came out of his thin lips subconsciously.
"Su Wan twisted her ankle?!"
Although he looked unhappy, the concern and anxiety in his tone were self-evident.
Fiennes was originally curious about the attitude of the prince, but when he saw Jiang Xuecheng asking without hesitation, he suddenly realized that Jiang Xuecheng still couldn't let go of Su Wan.
The discomfort in Fiennes' heart grew stronger, and he forced a concerned smile on his face.
"Yes, Miss Su accidentally twisted her ankle when she was chasing His Highness just now."
"That stupid woman."
Jiang Xuecheng sneered coldly, as if he was mocking Su Wan, but his hands clenched involuntarily, and the anxious look between his brows could not be concealed.
As Jiang Xuecheng spoke, he suddenly raised his eyes and scanned the handsome westernized face in front of him.
The sight of Fiennes's face made him feel even more unhappy.
"Fiennes, what are you doing here looking for Su Wan?"
A low male voice like a violin passed by my ears, but it was not difficult to hear the hint of displeasure.
When Fiennes heard this, he suddenly had an idea in his mind.
Since there is already a rift between the Emperor's son and Su Wan, he doesn't mind letting the misunderstanding between them deepen.
Fiennes opened his hands generously, and a snowflake necklace suddenly appeared in his palms.
"Your Highness, I came to Su Wan to give her something. Just now, Su Wan saw Your Highness coming and didn't accept it in a hurry. Your Highness, please pass it to her for me later."
Fiennes spoke with ease, and in the bright sunshine, his handsome face was filled with a bright smile.
However, there are many inaccuracies in the words.
He didn't mention why he gave Su Wan the necklace, but simply said that Su Wan confiscated it because she saw Jiang Xuecheng.
It's easy for people to think in a bad direction.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuecheng's face immediately darkened and became even colder.
He lowered his head and glanced at the thing in Fiennes' palm. He saw that the necklace was in the shape of an extremely unique snowflake. The snowflake was made entirely of pearls, and in the center of the snowflake was inlaid with a light blue tear-shaped gem.
The blue gem is very lustrous, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this necklace is very expensive.
Why did Fiennes suddenly want to give this necklace to Su Wan? Was it a token of love? Or some other kind of compensation
And Su Wan refused to accept it because she saw him coming? !
Oh, so Su Wan still cares about his opinion? But what's there to be happy about!
When Jiang Xuecheng thought of this, he felt as if an invisible hand was strangling his throat.
That hand squeezed his heart so hard that he almost couldn't breathe.
