Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng steadily, her expression full of seriousness.
If it wasn't for some harsh conditions, Su Wan couldn't figure out why the high priest would disperse the banquet so easily.
From Jiang Xuecheng's attitude, Su Wan could already tell that the high priest and Jiang Xuecheng had reached some agreement.
If this banquet is cancelled, does that mean that Tia and Jiang Xuecheng's marriage is off
In order to get the high priest to agree to this, Su Wan didn't know what Jiang Xuecheng sacrificed for him
But no matter what, the person she least wanted to drag down was the man in front of her.
This man who loved her deeply and whom she also loved deeply.
"Xuecheng, answer me."
Su Wan stood on tiptoe and held Jiang Xuecheng's face carefully, with an indescribable seriousness on her face.
Jiang Xuecheng smiled faintly, his dark eyes full of doting.
"It's nothing, actually. I'm still useful to the high priestess. She can't force me to death. Besides, Fiennes doesn't want me to marry his sister, so this marriage is off the table."
As he spoke, he reached out and stroked Su Wan's hair. His voice was low and pleasant, like the sound of jade hitting each other.
Jiang Xuecheng's voice was too calm, and it was precisely because of this calmness that Su Wan felt uneasy.
If she hadn't happened to hear that she was infected with the virus, she might have really believed it.
Su Wan's eyes became hot and a sour taste rose in his throat.
"Can you please stop treating me like a child? I'll feel uneasy if you handle everything by yourself."
Yes, Su Wan was afraid of being poisoned, but that didn't mean she would be so fragile as to sit there and wait for death.
She also wanted to help Jiang Xuecheng.
She is not a fragile dodder. If she must say, Su Wan hopes that she can stand beside him like a tree and help Jiang Xuecheng to bear all the ups and downs together.
Jiang Xuecheng felt helpless when he saw Su Wan was determined to hear the answer.
"You really want to know what I talked about with the high priest?"
Su Wan's heartbeat quickened when he heard this.
Will Jiang Xuecheng tell her everything
Su Wan stared at Jiang Xuecheng without blinking, her eyes full of stubbornness, her fingers clenched even tighter together.
"I want to know the truth, all of it, without hiding anything."
Like, how long can she live
What is the possibility of curing the CHK-3 virus in her body
Now thinking back carefully, from the day Jiang Xuecheng wanted to take her for a pregnancy check-up, Jiang Xuecheng was so persistent in asking her to take medicine every day.
I'm afraid that drug is used to slow down the effects of the CHK-3 virus
But she foolishly thought that Jiang Xuecheng just wanted to improve her physical condition because she was too weak.
Oh, right, pregnancy test...
Su Wan's pupils suddenly tightened, and a bitter feeling rose in his throat.
Could it be that the CHK-3 virus will still threaten the next generation
Jiang Xuecheng was obviously relieved when he saw the pregnancy test report saying there was no child. Does that prove that the two of them are indeed not suitable for having children
Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan's anxious face, but he didn't think too much about it. He just suspected that Su Wan might be the eavesdropper at that time, but he hadn't confirmed it yet.
"Wanwan, it's just like you thought. The high priest did threaten me, but in the end we both took a step back and reached a compromise. She will let me go to a new immigration planet for inspection in the near future."
Su Wan said that she wanted to know all the truth, so Jiang Xuecheng could only avoid the important issues. He absolutely did not want Su Wan to know that he was infected with the virus.
After all, even if Su Wan knew those things, it would be useless and would only add to Su Wan's burden!
"Going to inspect a new immigrant planet, what are you going to do there?"
Su Wan had already expected that Jiang Xuecheng would not tell her about the virus. She felt a pang in her heart, but she did not dwell on it too much and directly grasped the main point of what Jiang Xuecheng said.
Jiang Xuecheng narrowed his eyes slightly, stretched out his hand, and gently scratched Su Wan's nose.
"To be precise, it's not an inspection, it's disaster relief and deterrence."
Jiang Xuecheng paused and began to explain to Su Wan carefully.
"That planet is called Aquamarine. It is a relatively poor planet for new immigrants. In the past month, it has experienced several geological disasters in succession. However, the local divine court seems to have failed to provide disaster relief, which has led to serious public outrage."
Su Wan nodded suddenly.
Could it be that Jiang Xuecheng is being asked to act as the Imperial Sword? !
When Su Wan first came here, he saw how poor the new immigrant planet was, and that many of the executive officers of the Divine Court were corrupt.
If a natural disaster or man-made disaster suddenly occurred, and the officials embezzled the disaster relief funds, if she were a resident there, she would definitely be furious!
Poor mountains and bad waters may not necessarily produce many unruly people, but they often produce many unruly officials.
Su Wan felt a little relieved. She reached out and tugged at Jiang Xuecheng's arm, with some unconscious worry in her voice.
"How long will you be gone? Can I...can I go with you?"
She didn't want to stay here alone.
Su Wan felt uneasy when she thought about the fact that she still had the CHK virus number 3 in her body. If she died suddenly one day but didn't even see Jiang Xuecheng for the last time, how could she be willing to accept that
She hopes to stay with Jiang Xuecheng until the last second of her life.
In fact, even if Su Wan didn't say it, Jiang Xuecheng had been thinking about this issue.
There was no way he would let Su Wan stay in the Divine Court alone.
However, there was still an invisible bomb, the CHK No. 3 virus, lurking in Su Wan's body. Jiang Xuecheng was afraid that if something happened outside, it would be too late to rescue her.
However, on the one hand, Jiang Xuecheng had already asked people to do more research on the characteristics of the CHK virus No. 3. On the other hand, after Jiang Xuecheng agreed to the conditions, the high priest gave him a few bottles of relief medicine as a gift.
According to the high priest, with those bottles of medicine, Su Wan's health will be fine for a few months, and the virus that Su Wan suffers from will not be fatal during these months.
Jiang Xuecheng didn't dare to gamble with Su Wan, but he couldn't feel at ease leaving Su Wan alone in the Divine Court.
"Okay, then I'll take you with me then."
It is always easier to take care of Su Wan by my side.
He didn't want Su Wan to leave his sight, and was trembling with fear as he thought about the state of Su Wan's physical condition at the moment.
When Su Wan heard this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and immediately stood on tiptoe to kiss Jiang Xuecheng's face.
Su Wan smiled with her eyebrows curved, and her pair of clear almond-shaped eyes were big and bright, like the stars in the sky.
He was willing to do anything for Su Wan's smile.
Jiang Xuecheng curled the corners of his lips and immediately held Su Wan's head and kissed her.
If possible, he really hopes that Su Wan will always be like this, smiling happily and brightly.
She didn't need to know anything.
He can face all the darkness alone.
As a man, you should do everything you can to protect the woman you love.
This is Jiang Xuecheng’s principle.
