Chapter 646: Miss Su Is Pregnant…
There was a strange silence outside the infirmary. Neither Jiang Xuecheng nor the high priest said anything, but they seemed to be at loggerheads.
The high priest narrowed her eyes. Looking at the unruly young man in front of her, she suddenly felt a headache coming on.
How dare he talk nonsense in front of her? Did he think that she, the high priest of the God’s Palace, was a three-year-old child?!
As for Jiang Xuecheng, his back was straight. Facing the high priest’s aggressive gaze, he remained unmoved. However, his aura was still as cold as ice.
He had never thought that he could fool the high priest. All he did was insist on this answer, unwilling to let this matter implicate Su Wan.
Fiennes, who was sandwiched between the two of them, felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to for him.
Especially after hearing the words “Fiennes, what do you think?” from Jiang Xuecheng, he had no choice but to stay out of it.
The corners of Fiennes’ lips twitched, and he could not help but smile bitterly.
In such a short period of time, what had happened had already exceeded Fiennes’ imagination. First, Su Wan was pushed into the water by her own sister and was almost killed. Then, it was the emperor who pushed Diya into the water.
But even so, he understood that it was Diya who had gone too far. When Fiennes saw Jiang Xuecheng push Diya into the water, he was only shocked, but he did not feel any anger.
As long as she was fine, it was fine.
His sister had been spoiled since she was young. She was indeed mischievous and needed someone to break her spirit.
Fiennes sighed in his heart. Then, he curled his lips and revealed a faint smile.
“Priest, just as His Highness said, Miss Su accidentally fell into the water. My younger sister was in a rush to save her, but she forgot that she couldn’t swim, so…”
Fiennes didn’t continue the rest, but everyone could imagine a scene.
The corners of the high priest’s lips curled up slightly as he coldly swept his gaze across Fiennes’ blue pupils, as if she wanted to make Fiennes feel guilty.
To the high priest, she knew that girl, Diya, the best. Diya had been clamoring for her to deal with that scourge Su Wan every day, so how could she still lend a helping hand to Su Wan?!
Fiennes gulped under the high priest’s sharp gaze, but he remained calm and fearless on the surface.
Jiang Xuecheng stood beside Fiennes, tall and slender like a pine tree.
The two men, who had different thoughts, stood together as if they were trying to protect each other. They seemed to have reached a consensus and formed a united front, which was rare.
The high priest looked at the two of them, and a cold snort escaped from her plump lips.
However, since the two of them were so stubborn, she couldn’t be bothered to probe further.
These days she still had to investigate someone, so she did not have much time to listen to their nonsense.
However, Su Wan, this woman who appeared out of nowhere, made the Emperor and Fiennes pay so much attention to her, so the high priest could not help but pay more attention to Su Wan.
She had already sent people to check Su Wan’s identity. That identity card was indeed made by the God’s Palace, and there was not a single mistake. However, when she thought of the ring on Su Wan’s left hand, she suddenly felt uneasy.
Therefore, the high priest almost immediately sent two trusted subordinates to visit the place of birth that was marked on Su Wan’s identity card.
As long as Su Wan was not a visitor from that distant space and had really lived on an immigrant planet, even if both her parents were dead, there would definitely be traces of her since she was young.
Su Wan was still so young. Whether it was her neighbors or those who had registered her birth certificate at that time, there would always be people still alive who knew her.
No matter who Su Wan was, she could not let Su Wan ruin her plans.
As the high priest, she wholeheartedly groomed her successor. She wanted him to be cold and decisive. He could not have a soft spot because of Su Wan.
She had not planned to arrange a marriage for this young man. But now, it seemed that it was not bad to choose an arranged marriage with the eldest daughter of the Siswell family.
Diya was wholeheartedly devoted to Jiang Xuecheng and had a noble background. She had seen all the little actions of the Siswell family in the past few years. She had only turned a blind eye to them.
As long as the new emperor married Diya, it could be considered as subtly taking them in as his own people.
As for those lackeys of the Siswell family, she still had time. She did not mind slowly breaking them one by one.
The high priest’s eyes were sharp. Suddenly, she heard a weak meow coming from not far away.
Soon, a pure white Persian cat ran over. The cat was leaning on the high priest’s ankle very docilely. It was lazily and obediently hugging the high priest’s skirt, without a hint of wildness.
The high priest’s eyes were slightly lowered. She glanced at the Persian cat beside her ankle, and her expression became a little gentler.
However, when her gaze swept past the cat’s emerald eyes, the high priest’s expression suddenly turned cold. She suddenly remembered that there was still a mischievous “pet” outside who had not run back!
Her hands under her black sleeves tightened a little. Ha, she really did not know how long that person would be able to escape.
However, it did not matter. She believed that that person would not be able to hide for long.
…
When they saw the high priest carrying the Persian cat and looking at them indifferently, both Jiang Xuecheng and Fiennes were silent. The atmosphere became even more tense,
At that moment, suddenly, the door behind them opened with a creak.
When they heard the dull sound of the door opening, the eyes of Jiang Xuecheng and Fiennes lit up. Both of them turned around at the same time!
Two women walked out of the door. A nurse in a white uniform was supporting Diya with one hand. Her expression was very respectful.
Although Diya’s face was still a little pale, she was clearly not as pale as before. She looked alive again.
Why didn’t Su Wan come out?!
Jiang Xuecheng pursed his lips. His originally bright eyes turned dark in an instant. It was difficult to guess his current emotions.
Although Fiennes was a little worried about Su Wan, he finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that his sister was unharmed.
“Diya, are you alright?”
The corners of Diya’s lips curled up into a coquettish smile.
“Brother, I’m fine. I’ve made you worry.”
Fiennes also smiled slightly. Then, he reached out his hand to caress Diya’s somewhat messy hair. His voice was gentle.
“Although I know that you have good intentions and was in a hurry to save Miss Su who fell into the water, you don’t know how to swim. In the future, don’t be so kind as to help. It will make me and His Highness even more worried.”
Upon hearing that, Diya was stunned. She suddenly became confused!
What did he mean by she wanted to go into the water to save Su Wan?!
What a joke!
How could she possibly go and save that vixen?!
Diya opened her mouth and was about to speak when she suddenly saw the emperor looking in her direction. His gaze was frighteningly cold.
Diya took a deep breath and finally swallowed her words.
Just as the atmosphere was getting more and more awkward, a female doctor suddenly walked out from inside.
She respectfully nodded at the people outside and then looked straight at Jiang Xuecheng.
“Your Highness, Miss Su still hasn’t woken up, she seems to be pregnant.”
