Chapter 769: Being Cuckolded
Initially, Diya wanted to blame her brother for not speaking up for her. However, now that Fiennes was not speaking, the moment he spoke, Diya’s heart almost jumped out of her chest.
Her eyes were hazy with tears. In her blurry vision, Fiennes was still calmly looking at her.
Diya stuttered as she looked at her brother. Her expression was filled with fear.
“But brother, her highness is so outstanding and good, how could he not be worthy of my liking?”
“Furthermore, furthermore… the High Priest said that she would be back in two weeks to personally hold the engagement ceremony for me and the Emperor!”
That’s right, her brother must have said that because he wanted to comfort her!
Among all the girls in the world, which one would not be moved by the sight of the Emperor!
She had a good appearance, and her family background was the best among the wealthy families. Moreover, the high priest had personally promised that she would definitely snatch back the emperor!
Seeing that Diya was still so stubborn and was wholeheartedly infatuated with a person who did not love her at all, Fiennes sighed helplessly.
“Diya, didn’t you hear what His Highness said just now? He did not put the High Priest in his eyes, both in his words and in his actions. Do you think that now that His Highness has grown strong wings, he will submit to the High Priest’s orders?”
Hearing her brother’s analysis, Diya’s heart suddenly jumped twice.
——Just now the emperor did indeed seem to look down on the high priest from his words, and even more…
Diya’s beautiful eyes were filled with confusion. She pitifully grabbed onto Fiennes’ sleeve, tears welling up in her eyes,
“Brother — then what do you think I should do?!”
Such a bewildered Diya made Fiennes’ heart ache.
As his half-sister, she had been pampered since she was young. She was the only one who bullied others. There was no way for others to give her a hard time!
She looked a little unruly and cruel, but she was actually not that bad-hearted. She was even willing to give her all for a man who did not love her. Just how foolish was she?
With such a character, if she did not find a noble young master with a decent family background and was an honest and timid person to marry in the future, she was afraid that she would be dragged out and sold for money without even knowing it!
Fiennes reached out his hand and stroked Diya’s hair lovingly.
“Diya, listen to your brother’s words. Don’t think about that man who does not love you. Your brother will definitely find a man who is worthy of you in every aspect. He will not let you down, and he will not make you sad.”
Fiennes was determined not to let Diya marry into the God’s Palace. He wanted to find a brother-in-law who knew Diya well and was easier to control.
This way, no matter what, Diya’s husband would not dare to bully Diya.
After all, no matter what, he would always be her brother.
Hearing Fiennes’ comforting words, Diya sniffled intermittently. Her reddened eyes revealed confusion.
“But brother, I only like His Highness alone… no one else can be more outstanding than the Emperor…”
In the entire world, how could there be a second person who could catch her eye?
Fiennes did not expect Diya to not be persuaded at all. He was a little angry in his heart, but in the end, he still poured a bucket of cold water on Diya.
“You should think about it carefully! In two weeks, will His Highness come with you to attend the engagement ceremony?”
After Fiennes said that, he raised his eyes indifferently and glanced in the direction where Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan had left.
Although there was no one there and not a single person could be seen, Fiennes’ blue eyes flashed with a strange light.
Just wait and see. One day, he would not allow others to chase him away like this!
There were many families that were dissatisfied with the God’s Palace. As the emperor of the God’s Palace, Jiang Xuecheng had just taken over the position and was acting swiftly and decisively. The number of people they had offended was even greater.
They had violated the interests of the nobles and protected the commoners. What a joke!
Putting aside the rules and regulations, just the matter of Jiang Xuecheng causing a ruckus in the underground auction market for Su Wan had already been criticized by many people!
For example, that young master Keller who had two broken ribs after being kicked by Jiang Xuecheng was still lying on his sickbed!
Even though this eldest son was shameless and incompetent, the patriarch of the Devi family had complained in front of him countless times.
One by one, these matters would become the fuse that detonated the bomb sooner or later!
Just wait and see!
What high priest, what emperor, how long can they continue to be arrogant?!
He had been waiting for that day for God knows how long!
Thinking of this, Fiennes curled his lips into a cold smile, which even stunned Diya.
…
The sky was blue, and the slightly warm wind carried the fragrance of plants and flowers as it lightly brushed against the faces of Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng.
Without the chattering of the two siblings from the Siswell family, Su Wan felt that her mood was as good as the sunshine!
Even if she just walked along with Jiang Xuecheng and did not say anything, she still felt at ease.
She did not want to ask any more questions about the dispute between Jiang Xuecheng and Diya.
She believed in him, and that alone was enough.
Jiang Xuecheng turned his head and looked at Su Wan’s side profile with great interest.
“I thought you would ask me about the engagement the moment we left. In the end, your patience was better than I expected.”
When Su Wan heard this, she could not help but burst into laughter.
“What’s the use of asking? I just need to know that you don’t like Diya and have no intention of compromising to marry her.”
A faint golden light shone on Su Wan’s face. The smile on her beautiful face was shallow. Her eyes were bright and her teeth were white. She was like a flowing spring on a mountain stream, clear and pure.
“How do you know that I won’t compromise? I heard that the High Priest is coming back to uphold justice for her. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll change my mind before I die?”
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s mischievous look, he loved her very much. However, he could not help but tease her.
“How dare you!”
Su Wan bared her teeth and glared at Jiang Xuecheng. When she saw the teasing look in his eyes, she tilted her head and could not help but reach out to hook Jiang Xuecheng’s chin.
“If you really get engaged to that young lady, Diya, then I might go to Fiennes. I will be merciless to you!”
When he saw how Su Wan openly said that she was going to cuckold him, Jiang Xuecheng surprisingly did not get angry. Instead, he pinched the side of Su Wan’s face.
“Wan Wan, you’re too heartless! See how I’ll punish you when I get back. I’ll make sure you can’t get out of bed for three days and three nights.”
Su Wan’s face turned red when he pinched her, but why did the meaning behind Jiang Xuecheng’s words sound so…
Well, in short, it was a little dirty. It was so shameful to say this in broad daylight…
Su Wan glared at Jiang Xuecheng. The two of them held hands all the way and unknowingly walked to the side of an incomparably clear river.
“Do you still remember this place?”
When she heard Jiang Xuecheng’s words, some bad memories surfaced in Su Wan’s mind.
Her ring… was left behind by Jiang Xuecheng here…
