Su Wan’s eyes widened when she heard Diya’s question that reversed the truth!
Fortunately, she forcefully restrained herself and did not spray the rice grains over to Diya’s side.
Only a ghost would want to marry Diya’s brother!
“You, why would you think that way — cough cough…”
Su Wan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry at Diya’s words. In the end, she accidentally choked and felt extremely uncomfortable.
What did she mean by that?
Diya was slightly stunned. Just as she was about to ask for an explanation, Su Wan started coughing heavily.
Looking at her flushed face, it did not seem like she was faking it.
“Do you feel uncomfortable choking?”
Diya asked Su Wan hesitantly.
Su Wan’s face was flushed red as she nodded at Diya with difficulty. She even reached out to pinch her own throat from time to time, trying to make the uncomfortable feeling fade away faster.
Seeing that Su Wan was in so much pain, Diya took a glance at the room and quickly found the place where the water dispenser was placed.
She took out a glass cup, filled it half with water, and quickly walked to Su Wan’s side.
“Here.”
When her gaze swept past the glass cup filled with clear water, Su Wan was stunned. She raised her eyebrows slightly and felt that her heart was full of surprise.
— she really did not expect that this pampered young lady would be so considerate.
Seeing that Su Wan did not take it, Diya immediately frowned and directly stuffed the glass into Su Wan’s hand.
“You should drink some water. It will help you feel better.”
“Thank… Thank you.”
At this moment, Su Wan’s throat was extremely uncomfortable. She could only force a smile at Diya to express her gratitude.
Seeing Su Wan quickly finish the glass of water in one gulp, Diya kindly reminded her.
“Don’t drink so quickly. What if you choke again? Do you want me to pat your back?”
Pfft…
When Su Wan heard Diya take the initiative to ask her if she wanted to pat her back, she was completely stunned!
Why did she feel that the girl in front of her was not the Diya that she knew in the past?!
Since when did that rich young lady become so understanding?
Su Wan raised her head in a trance, and Diya’s face appeared in front of her eyes.
It was still that gorgeous face, and her amber eyes were shining.
Who else could it be but Diya?!
Su Wan had a strange feeling in her heart, and she quickly shook her head at Diya.
“No need, thank you.”
As Su Wan said that, she gently put down the glass that she had finished drinking and placed it in a corner of the table.
Diya had obviously expected Su Wan’s answer. She snorted coldly.
“It’s rare for me to take the initiative to help someone. You really don’t know your place.”
Diya’s spoiled voice brushed past her ear and instantly made Su Wan feel a little more normal.
As expected, this Diya was the princess of the Duke’s family that she was more familiar with.
If Diya had been showing too much enthusiasm, she might have really suspected that she had mistaken her for someone else, or that Diya’s brain had gone haywire today.
Su Wan raised her eyes and stared at the girl who was as beautiful as a flower across the table. The corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile.
For some reason, since Su Wan had been locked up in this Shanshui villa by Fiennes for the past few days, she was bored to death, but she was also worried about the situation of herself and Jiang Xuecheng from time to time. She had never been truly happy for a single day.
On the other hand, the arrival of Diya, the “old enemy,” made Su Wan feel a little happier. Even the haze in her heart had lessened a lot.
Diya was somewhat unable to withstand Su Wan’s direct gaze. She glanced at Su Wan in puzzlement.
“Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?”
“No, I just feel that I need to get to know you again, Miss Diya.”
Su Wan smiled faintly and shook her head.
Hearing Su Wan’s words, Diya nodded her head in understanding.
“I used to like the emperor. I was blinded by a single leaf, so I was very rude to you. I’ve also done many things wrong. I apologize to you for the mistakes I’ve made in the past.”
Su Wan waved her hand with a serious expression.
“Don’t apologize. As long as we get along fine in the future, it’s alright. I won’t find trouble with you, and you don’t have to find trouble with me either.”
Su Wan had always been the type of person who wouldn’t offend others if they didn’t offend her. Who would be so full of themselves that they only wanted to scheme against others.
“Okay, then we won’t get into each other’s business in the future.”
Seeing that Diya nodded her head happily, Su Wan heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Then, she began to change the topic to the ridiculous marriage between her and Fiennes.
“Miss Diya, you just asked me why I must marry your brother. I feel that you have said the opposite. If I said that I did not like this marriage at all and that I was forced to agree from the beginning to the end, would you believe it?”
Hearing that, Diya was instantly stunned!
Her pair of amber-colored beautiful eyes rolled around a few times, and her delicate brows instantly furrowed.
“Are you lying to me?”
“Of course not! I’m already Xue… His Highness’ wife. He’s not dead, so why should I remarry?”
Su Wan said with a serious expression. Her eyes were very open and magnanimous, allowing Diya to look at her.
She didn’t mind telling the truth that Jiang Xuecheng wasn’t dead, after all, Diya would find out sooner or later.
Moreover, this confidence was the key to convincing Diya to believe in her.
She needed the girl’s help. After all, Diya was the eldest daughter of the Siswell family. If anyone could rescue her from this cage now, Diya would definitely be the one!
When Diya heard this, her beautiful willow-like eyebrows furrowed even deeper.
When she saw that Su Wan claimed to be Jiang Xuecheng’s wife, she was not too surprised. After all, Jiang Xuecheng had once knelt down on one knee and proposed marriage at the banquet.
What Diya grabbed was another point.
“His Highness… He’s still alive?”
Su Wan nodded without hesitation.
“Of course he’s still alive.”
Seeing how decisive Su Wan’s answer was, Diya’s heart suddenly split into two.
She had indeed liked that man before, but what excited her now was not the resurrection of Jiang Xuecheng, but the fact that she could not help but worry about her brother’s situation.
Although Diya was not very smart, she was definitely not stupid.
Since Su Wan dared to tell her so generously, then her brother must also know this fact. Why did her brother insist on marrying Su Wan?!
Diya’s heart skipped a beat.
After contacting so many heirs from prestigious families recently, and even the head of a family had come to her house to discuss things with her brother, a bad guess emerged in Diya’s mind.
Diya’s face turned slightly pale.
“Su Wan, when you and His Highness fell off the cliff, was it… planned by someone…”
Su Wan did not expect Diya’s brain to turn so quickly. Seeing that she had guessed it, Su Wan decided not to hide it anymore.
“You are right. The incident between her highness and I was planned by someone. Moreover… your brother was also involved in it.”
Diya was shocked!
Before she could calm down, Su Wan had already thrown out a request!
“Miss Diya, can I ask you to do me a favor and let me leave this place?”
