Chapter 806: Big Tailed Wolf
When Su Wan heard Jiang Xuecheng’s words, she blinked her eyes in confusion.
“Take me to the banquet? And announce our relationship?”
Su Wan did not expect Jiang Xuecheng to make such a risky move at such a critical moment. He decided to directly announce that she was the one he wanted to marry!
Although people with good intentions definitely knew that she and Jiang Xuecheng were in a relationship, in the eyes of the noble families, her current status was probably unpresentable.
Moreover, since it was a welcoming banquet for the high priest…
It was likely that Jiang Xuecheng’s actions were equivalent to a slap to the high priest’s face!
After all, who in the God’s Palace didn’t know that the high priest was bent on getting the eldest daughter of the Siswell family to marry Jiang Xuecheng.
When Su Wan thought of this, her heart felt both painful and touched.
–Just how many things was this man willing to bear for her?
Su Wan suddenly felt ashamed of her previous doubts. She looked up at Jiang Xuecheng, her heart feeling bitter and complicated.
“Jiang Xuecheng, are you in a difficult position?”
Su Wan knew that Jiang Xuecheng would have to bear a lot of controversy for her.
Su Wan was born into a wealthy family. She knew very early on how difficult it was to cross the social strata.
Although she was not the kind of person who liked to be bossy just because she was born into a wealthy family, Su Wan had seen plenty of scumbags of that type.
If he were to get married with a girl from a different family, perhaps the pressure on Jiang Xuecheng would be even greater than hers.
When he saw Su Wan’s pained gaze, Jiang Xuecheng’s heart suddenly softened beyond recognition.
In Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes, Su Wan had always been a very fragile girl who needed his protection and care.
However, when he saw Su Wan’s sincere and caring look, Jiang Xuecheng felt very warm.
The other half he needed did not need to be very outstanding or beautiful. He just wanted to find someone who could make him feel warm.
A mischievous smile appeared on Jiang Xuecheng’s face. He narrowed his eyes slightly and held Su Wan tightly in his arms.
It was as if he wanted to bury Su Wan into his bones and become one with her.
“Wan Wan, why did I only realize now that you’re actually very understanding?”
Was this a compliment?
Su Wan was stunned when she heard that.
She could not help but raise her eyebrows and hit Jiang Xuecheng’s shoulder speechlessly. Then, her expression slowly became serious.
“Xuecheng, I’m serious. After all, people’s words are terrible. I’m really afraid that the voices of those people will drown you. So, you really have to consider this matter carefully.”
The smile on Jiang Xuecheng’s face suddenly deepened. He reached out and held Su Wan’s waist, his voice solemn.
“If I can’t even bear this little bit of pressure, how can I be your man?”
Hearing what Jiang Xuecheng said, Su Wan was shocked!
She suddenly understood that Jiang Xuecheng wanted to bear everything on his own and put all the pressure on his shoulders!
Su Wan’s clear eyes heated up and suddenly glistened. It was definitely not just touching!
It was more of heartache.
Su Wan buried her face in Jiang Xuecheng’s shoulder. She lowered her eyes, not wanting Jiang Xuecheng to see the traces of moisture at the corner of her eyes.
Su Wan knew that Jiang Xuecheng had never liked to see her cry. He had even threatened to say that any man who would make his woman cry was not a good man.
Su Wan’s lips opened and closed twice, and her voice was muffled.
“Xuecheng, I really don’t know how to repay you in this way.”
Jiang Xuecheng was a little speechless when he heard that. He felt that this little girl was easily moved.
In fact, he had only made a verbal promise. Su Wan, on the other hand, looked like she was completely convinced that he would do it.
Sometimes, what was important was not what others said to you, but what others did for you.
Whether it was a lover or a friend, this was the best rule in a relationship.
Jiang Xuecheng felt that Su Wan was too gullible. She was easily moved. It was no wonder that she was sold by a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl for money.
It seemed that he had to take good care of this little woman in the future.
He didn’t want Su Wan to be one day taken away by someone with a sweet mouth.
Jiang Xuecheng held Su Wan’s face in his hands. As expected, he saw that the corners of Su Wan’s eyes were slightly red, and faint tears were dense on her beautiful face.
The man gently reached out his hand and used his slender fingertips to wipe the tears from the corners of Su Wan’s eyes.
“Silly girl, I just said that I would be honest and bring you to the banquet, and you’re already so touched? Sometimes I’m really worried that someone would harm your silly and sweet personality.”
As he said this, Jiang Xuecheng slightly pinched the side of Su Wan’s face.
Su Wan let out a low cry that was half true and half false, and gave him a proud glance.
“Hey, it hurts! You said earlier that you wanted me to believe you, and now you want to teach me that the world is full of bad people? Are you also a big-tailed wolf?”
Jiang Xuecheng knew that Su Wan was just acting coquettishly to him. He obediently pecked Su Wan’s hair and said in a sonorous voice.
“Wan Wan, you only need to know that others may not really treat you well, but I will definitely not harm you.”
“You can be distrustful towards anyone, but you cannot doubt me.”
Jiang Xuecheng added another sentence.
When Su Wan heard this, her eyes suddenly widened.
–What kind of advice is this?! And this guy is too narcissistic!
“So you are the only good person in the whole world, right?”
Su Wan rolled her eyes at Jiang Xuecheng speechlessly.
She had never seen such an overbearing and arrogant man like Jiang Xuecheng!
Yet, he could still say it seriously, as if the truth was as he said!
When he saw Su Wan grimacing, Jiang Xuecheng could not help but laugh.
He lowered his head and lingered around Su Wan’s neck greedily. He took a whiff of the faint fragrance on Su Wan’s body.
He wanted to smell this scent for the rest of his life.
“I didn’t say that. I don’t think I’m a good person, but I’m absolutely sincere with you.”
Su Wan didn’t expect Jiang Xuecheng to start talking about love at the slightest disagreement. Su Wan’s face was slightly red.
She broke away from Jiang Xuecheng’s embrace and wanted to grab the Teacup next to her.
She didn’t expect her hand to shake for some reason, and the teacup suddenly fell to the ground.
With a few crisp sounds, the teacup unfortunately shattered into pieces.
Su Wan’s heart ached as she looked at it. She couldn’t help but bend down and began to pick up the broken pieces of the teacup.
When Jiang Xuecheng saw the sharp edge of the broken teacup, he suddenly remembered what the high priest had said!
“Wan Wan, don’t move! I’ll pick it up!”
He shouted in a low voice and tried to reach out to stop Su Wan.
However, it was too late for Jiang Xuecheng. When Su Wan’s hand touched the edge of the Teacup, bean-sized drops of blood instantly appeared!
Jiang Xuecheng’s heart froze, and the high priest’s words automatically replayed in his mind.
—— a friendly reminder, the CHK Virus No.3 can be transmitted through the blood. Your Highness, you have to be careful.
Looking at Jiang Xuecheng’s drastic change in expression, Su Wan frowned slightly. She did not understand why Jiang Xuecheng had such a big reaction?
