Fiennes saw his sister rushing out like crazy and felt a little worried. He was about to chase her, but he saw the high priest walk in at some point.
Fiennes was startled and immediately stopped walking.
Tia's eyes were blurred with tears, and she seemed not to recognize that it was the high priest at all. She bumped into the high priest but ran away without looking back.
The luxurious Persian cat in the high priest's arms was frightened by Tia. The cat screamed softly and then jumped to the ground suddenly.
The high priest looked at his cat with pity, then turned his head and looked back in the direction Tia was running.
Tia was probably so angry that she lost her mind. She stumbled all the way and soon ran out of the high priest's sight.
Fiennes originally wanted to go find Tia, but when he thought about the situation today, he thought that nothing should happen to Tia, so he decided to stay and deal with what happened next.
—He really didn’t want Tia and Jiang Xuecheng to get married, so if the high priest insisted on the marriage, he would refuse it anyway on the grounds that the prince was too ruthless.
His naive sister is just petty-minded. If she really becomes a pawn in a marriage alliance, she will probably be used to pieces by the high priest and there is no chance of her being happy.
Of course, on the other hand, Fiennes didn't want Tia to ruin his plan.
…
After Tia ran away madly, 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 stood alone in a corner with a calm expression, his face showing no trace of the panic that came from his sister running away in anger.
The high priestess glanced at the people in the hall, her slender eyebrows frowned, and her eyes, as silent as the night, were filled with indescribable arrogance and indifference.
"What are you guys doing? What happened to Tia? Why did she rush out crying?"
In fact, even if someone else described it, the high priest could guess roughly what it was like when he saw Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng holding hands.
Haha, Jiang Xuecheng really doesn't care about himself!
Su Wan now has the CHK virus type 3 in his body, yet he still dares to resist the marriage so stubbornly!
The high priestess frowned even deeper. She had never loved anyone and could not understand Jiang Xuecheng at all.
But in the opinion of the high priest, under normal circumstances, shouldn't Jiang Xuecheng listen to Su Wan and marry Diya decisively for the sake of Su Wan's life
Which link went wrong
When Fiennes saw the high priest's angry 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 around and looked at Jiang Xuecheng, and saw that Jiang Xuecheng was meeting the high priest's gaze with extreme indifference.
It seems like these two people didn’t get along so well before
At least you can be polite on the surface...
Is that right? Something happened
Fiennes' heart skipped a beat when he thought about how Jiang Xuecheng proposed to Su Wan so spontaneously in public today. At first, he thought that Jiang Xuecheng was ready to take on everything, but now it seemed that he had no choice.
You know, all those present are celebrities from aristocratic families. The significance of proposing on such an occasion is extraordinary and it cannot be suppressed even if you want to!
The one that could make these two completely fall out...
Fiennes's eyes fell on the tightly clasped fingers of Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan, and he had already made a plan in his mind.
Most likely, it’s because Su is late…
I really don’t know what the high priest did to Su Wan to touch the emperor’s reverse scale.
Looks like things are getting more interesting...
Fiennes stroked his sleeve thoughtfully. While the prince and the high priest were at odds, perhaps he could make good use of this opportunity and advance his plan.
…
The high priest's face was cold and his pale lips were pressed into a straight line.
Because she was in a high position, she never showed her emotions on her face. However, at this moment, her beautiful features were tense and anyone could see that the high priestess was unhappy!
"Your Highness, you have to think it over carefully. Your fiancée just ran away, and there is no one for you to marry here now!"
Jiang Xuecheng's face froze as the high priest's powerful words passed by his ears, and his dark eyes suddenly became gloomy!
When everyone saw the high priest's cold expression, they all knew that this was the prelude to a storm. They all looked cautious and did not want to get involved in this incident.
Although today's play is lively, they are just background supporting roles and don't want to get involved in this messy water.
Su Wan, who was standing next to Jiang Xuecheng, didn't expect the high priest to say this!
This was equivalent to denying her marriage with Jiang Xuecheng in just one sentence!
Su Wan's face turned slightly pale.
In fact, she didn't care about Jiang Xuecheng's current identity at all, and she didn't have any attachment to this so-called son of the Divine Court.
Even if they are just ordinary people, as long as they are together, they can live well with their own abilities.
But now she is under the control of the Divine Court, and she has no freedom at all. Even her marriage has to depend on the high priest's opinion!
Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan's look and knew that she must be feeling uneasy. He silently squeezed Su Wan's palm, indicating that he was there for her and she didn't need to be afraid.
Su Wan felt Jiang Xuecheng pinching her palm, and she curled the corners of her lips towards him, indicating that Jiang Xuecheng didn't need 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 Divine Court was indeed too powerful. 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 had returned to her arms, with obvious disgust in her eyes.
—This young couple seemed to not take themselves seriously at all.
But it doesn’t matter, she has plenty of ways to control these two people!
…
The long corridor is decorated with various exquisite and magnificent murals, and the space is filled with the fragrance of various flowers and plants.
Tia ran and cried, her pretty face 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, right away!
Suddenly, she saw the door of the enclosed elevator in front of her was slowly closing.
There seemed to be a man inside, wearing a waiter's uniform in black, white and gray, but Tia couldn't see clearly what he looked like.
It's fine as long as the guy in the elevator is a waiter, as long as he's not a noble who knows her!
She has lost face enough today!
"Wait a minute! I want to go in too!"
Tia shouted hurriedly, and the man in the elevator seemed to look up at Tia, but still helped to press the switch.
