Chapter 888: Difficult Situation

Su Wan couldn’t help tilting her head when she heard her grandfather’s sigh. She looked at the man on the deck whose eyes were still tightly shut.

Pfft, it had only been a day, and they had even salvaged the “corpse” of Jiang Xuecheng?!

Then what was she and Jiang Xuecheng now?!

Wandering ghosts…

Su Wan pursed her lips and almost laughed out loud. However, thinking about it carefully, she felt a little bitter in her heart.

After all, Jiang Xuecheng was the emperor of the God’s Palace and had an important status. She had originally thought that the matter of the car falling off the cliff was of great importance and that someone would first seal off the news.

She did not expect Executive Officer Lin to be so much bolder than she had imagined. He actually claimed that Jiang Xuecheng was dead without any shame!

It seemed that she and Jiang Xuecheng had become two unregistered residents?

Su Wan sighed. She suppressed the restlessness in her heart and continued to pretend to be interested in the old man’s story.

“Are you talking about the new emperor of the God’s Palace? Wasn’t he here to inspect Planet Aquamarine? How did he crash the car? Wasn’t there someone protecting him on the car?”

Su Wan was the person who understood the truth the most. However, she still looked like she was seriously listening to gossip.

The old man’s memory wasn’t very good. Although he had seen the appearance of Jiang Xuecheng on the screen, he had forgotten it in the blink of an eye. He only remembered the other party’s bright and beautiful appearance.

At this moment, Jiang Xuecheng was right in front of him, but the old man treated him like an ordinary young man in distress.

As for Su Wan…

She was an even more ordinary little girl. Moreover, she was traveling in the stormy weather yesterday. She even wanted to watch the sunrise on the sea. It was simply too romantic!

The old man sighed twice. He tilted his head and glanced at Su Wan. He shook his head helplessly.

“I heard that the new emperor is a good person. He did a lot of practical things as soon as he came here, but perhaps his fate was not good.”

“He even went to the welfare institute to visit yesterday in that kind of weather. It was probably bad weather, and I heard that the highway was blocked because of it! Then he fell off the cliff around the sea, and his car crashed and he died!”

When Su Wan heard that, she curled her lips imperceptibly. When she and Jiang Xuecheng went to the welfare institute, the weather was obviously good, right?!

It was obvious that someone had tampered with Huanhai Highway early in the morning.

Someone wanted them dead, but unfortunately, it didn’t work…

Su Wan asked the old man anxiously.

“Then… was the emperor alone in the car?”

Since Executive Officer Lin had said that Jiang Xuecheng was dead and the “body” had been found, did Executive Officer Lin mention how she was doing?

Could he have also prepared a female body and said it was hers?

Obviously, the grandfather did not know that much.

He shook his head at Su Wan.

“I’m not sure either. I didn’t hear that there was someone else in the car. But that emperor was really in trouble. He was young and had a bright future. Who knew that he would suddenly be involved in such an incident…”

Su Wan absentmindedly nodded her head. She turned her head to look at Jiang Xuecheng. The other party’s eyes were tightly shut, and she did not know when he would wake up.

If it were not for the fact that she was still infected with the CHK Virus No.3, Jiang Xuecheng would very likely have been infected as well. When Su Wan heard this news, she would probably go crazy with joy!

After all, she could borrow the “death” that others spoke of to rightfully escape the control of the God’s Palace.

It was a pity that she and Jiang Xuecheng had no choice but to go back because of that virus!

The only thing that Su Wan could not figure out was why Executive Officer Lin dared to be so bold as to deliberately murder the emperor of the God’s Palace!

This was not a crime that could be taken lightly, but once it was found out, it would definitely be a matter of losing one’s head!

Who exactly was supporting Executive Officer Lin behind the scenes?

Su Wan originally thought that it might be the high priest, but after thinking about it, she felt that this answer was unlikely. Since Su Wan could not think of it, she could only have a headache.

The little boy who went to get food had already returned. He held a plate of smoked dried fish, a plate of compressed biscuits, and two cups of water.

Su Wan now felt that it was already good enough to have food and drink. Back on the deserted island, didn’t the grilled fish without any seasonings also end up in her stomach?

“Thank you.”

Su Wan took the food from the little boy and gave him a sincere smile.

Although Su Wan’s face and body were dirty, her facial features were still there. When the little boy saw Su Wan’s clear almond-shaped eyes, he could not help but blush.

“You don’t have to thank me. It was my grandpa who asked me to take it.”

The little boy called Qiangzi smiled shyly at Su Wan and immediately ran over to the old man on the other side of the grass deck.

Su Wan only thought that the boy was shy. In fact, she had a good affinity with children. However, with the state Jiang Xuecheng was in, Su Wan did not have much interest in chatting with him.

The dried fish was especially salty. Su Wan barely ate a piece of it with water. Then, she decisively picked up the biscuit and ate half of it. She was barely full.

Then, the grandfather brought Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng to the storage room at the bottom of the fishing boat.

The boat wasn’t big and only had two guest rooms. His grandson was not willing to let outsiders sleep in it, so he had to let Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng squeeze into the storage room at the bottom of the boat.

However, hot water was still available.

Seeing how Dirty Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng were, it was as if they had rolled in the mud a hundred times!

The old man gave Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng a change of clothes and then went upstairs.

Su Wan thanked him profusely and immediately closed the door of the storage room. At the same time, she checked the surrounding environment.

Now that Jiang Xuecheng and her life were in Su Wan’s control, Su Wan had to be on high alert.

After making sure that the surroundings were safe, Su Wan quickly gave Jiang Xuecheng a bath.

He could not be any dirtier. No wonder the little boy felt disgusted when he saw the two of them.

Su Wan also gave herself a battle bath. After changing into a lady’s outfit that did not fit her well, she began to worry about Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome face.

Her face was nothing. Not many people would remember her identity, but the chances of exposure of Jiang Xuecheng was very different from Su Wan’s!

What should she do?

There were no makeup tools in this cabin.

At most, she would just find some coal ash to smear on his face or something. Su Wan even suspected that this pair of grandfather and grandson wouldn’t cook at all!

Just as Su Wan was in a difficult situation, she suddenly heard an uncomfortable cough.

What was that?!

Su Wan was startled and immediately looked towards the temporary shop in the storage room. She saw that Jiang Xuecheng had awoken at some point in time, and there was still some confusion in its deep black eyes.

This gaze…

It was extremely similar to that bratty kid who didn’t have much intelligence.

Heavens, could it be that this fellow had hit his head and selectively lost his memory?

Su Wan walked over in shock and doubt. Suddenly, she heard Jiang Xuecheng call out her name.

“Wan Wan, where are we?”
