Chapter 656: Jiang Xuecheng Was Not An Item
Diya looked at Su Wan’s calm face and felt even more displeased.
This woman had obviously done such a shameless thing, yet she was still able to sit here calmly as if nothing had happened.
Su Wan’s face was pale, but her expression was extremely calm.
Could she really be planning to escape this week?
At the thought of this, Diya’s amber pupils suddenly contracted.
“Su Wan, in order to show your sincerity, you are not allowed to escape on your own during the time of the bet! Otherwise, even if I win, wouldn’t I be played like a monkey by you?”
Su Wan saw that Diya did not believe her so she could not help but laugh and shake her head.
–If she escaped on her own within this week, wouldn’t that be admitting defeat?
Moreover, Jiang Xuecheng probably didn’t trust her anymore. For the sake of that man, she wouldn’t leave this place.
“Miss Diya, you’re thinking too much. Even if I wanted to leave, do you think the people of the God’s Palace would let me go so easily after something like this happened?”
A soft female voice brushed by her ear, causing Diya to instantly come back to her senses.
That’s right. The high priest and His Highness would definitely not be willing to let the news of Su Wan causing such a scandal to his highness spread.
Hence, the God’s Palace had to first control Su Wan in their hands. If they were to deal with her in the future, they would definitely use extremely secretive methods. After all, they could not tarnish his highness’ reputation.
Thinking up to this point, Diya’s eyes stared straight at Su Wan. Suddenly, she did not know what she was feeling in her heart.
Su Wan was too calm. This kind of temperament, was it the legendary calm in the face of danger?
She was just a commoner girl. Sometimes, when Diya looked at this woman, she had the illusion that Su Wan was a real aristocrat.
That kind of noble feeling was not because she was overbearing and did not come from a family background that could be discussed. Instead, it was an indifferent and elegant temperament that was difficult to describe.
Diya pursed her lips, and a strong sense of jealousy emerged in her heart.
No, no, no, she must have thought wrong. She was just a commoner girl with a lowly status. How could she have the so-called “noble temperament”?
She must have been angered to the point of losing her mind today…
At the thought of this, Diya raised her chin arrogantly, and her beautiful face became even more arrogant.
“Su Wan, since we have agreed on a bet, have you thought about what price I should make you pay if you lose and I win?”
Su Wan glanced at Diya nonchalantly.
“As long as it’s not against nature or my principles, just say the word.”
Diya looked at Su Wan’s indifferent face and the resentment in her heart grew deeper.
Why could Su Wan still be so nonchalant!
She almost blurted it out without thinking!
“If I win, I want you to give His Highness to me. The further away you are from His Highness, the better!”
Diya paused for a moment, and the mockery in her eyes became more and more intense.
“Su Wan, you have brought such a great humiliation to his highness. I don’t think you will have the face to appear in front of him, right?”
In fact, Diya also knew that after Su Wan had cuckolded the emperor, she would most likely not have a good ending. His Highness would definitely not treat Su Wan well like before.
But for some reason, Diya had a feeling that Su Wan would definitely not fall out of favor so easily.
After Su Wan had another person’s bastard child, the emperor actually left Su Wan here. This was enough to show how special Su Wan’s position in his heart was. It could even make him disregard his self-respect!
If His Highness was really mad at Su Wan, he would have slapped this woman away long ago. However, he did not do so. Even the high priest kept it a secret and did not deal with her for the time being. Perhaps his highness was pleading for mercy for this woman?!
The calm-looking woman in front of her would probably continue to pester the emperor for an unknown period of time!
Diya’s intuition was absurd and laughable, but it was also so strong!
Diya felt the threat almost at the first moment. Therefore, she wanted Su Wan to leave immediately!
Hearing Diya’s words, Su Wan’s fingers trembled slightly.
Even if she had the confidence to win, she would not bet Jiang Xuecheng with others!
Because to her, Jiang Xuecheng was a lover that she cherished in her heart, and not an item that could be exchanged at will. How could she give and take like he was a toy?
As long as she liked Jiang Xuecheng, and Jiang Xuecheng liked her, they would not be able to be snatched away from each other’s hearts.
If one day, Jiang Xuecheng fell in love with someone else, and was not snatched away, she and Jiang Xuecheng would not be able to be together.
Su Wan’s expression turned cold, and a slightly bitter smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
“I can’t accept it. I don’t think that the child in my belly is a disgrace to… His Highness. Moreover, His Highness has his own will, and he is not something that I can give away just because I wanted to. Miss Diya, please change your request.”
After hearing Su Wan’s words, Diya was so angry that she almost collapsed, because she had never thought that Su Wan would reject it!
If it were not for the fact that her brother was still by her side, she would have wanted to directly go up and give Su Wan a slap!
The emperor valued this woman so much that he did not even give her a single glance because of her. However, Su Wan actually dared to do such a disgusting thing, and even said that this was not a disgrace to His Highness!
“You — how could there be such a shameless woman like you in this world!”
It was said that a man who was hurt in love was the easiest to be taken advantage of. As long as Su Wan left and His Highness was angry, she would accompany his highness on Su Wan’s behalf!
Then, His Highness would definitely understand that she was not that unruly and was also a gentle flower of understanding, right?
She believed that after spending a long time together, His Highness would definitely understand her deep feelings and fall in love with her!
“Miss Diya, if you don’t accept, then our bet can be nullified.”
Su Wan met Diya’s eyes without any fear. Her voice was cold and her expression was indifferent.
Diya took a deep breath. She could not contain her anger and was about to slap Su Wan when she suddenly saw her brother reaching out his hand.
Fiennes, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up.
“Diya, Miss Su is right. Su Wan naturally cannot decide on His Highness’ wishes. This condition of yours is indeed too much.”
Diya understood what Fiennes meant, but she was furious. She glanced at Fiennes helplessly, her voice full of resentment!
“Brother, why do you always have to speak up for outsiders? Moreover, this woman doesn’t know how to appreciate favors!”
Before Diya could finish her sentence, she suddenly heard Su Wan speak up, as if to prove that she was grateful.
“Young master Fiennes, thank you for your understanding.”
Even if Su Wan really wanted to make things difficult for her?!
When Diya heard Su Wan thank her brother, her brows furrowed even deeper. After taking a few deep breaths, she barely managed to calm herself down.
She glared at Su Wan and finally stated her conditions.
“Alright, let’s change our conditions. If you lose, kneel down and bark like a dog!”
