Chapter 926: What If Jiang Xuecheng Dies?

Before Fiennes could finish his sentence, Su Wan shuddered and was completely dumbfounded!

She had never expected Fiennes to ask that!

What did he mean by that?!

Although she was indeed a good-looking woman, Su Wan knew that Fiennes was definitely not the kind of person who would propose because he was infatuated with a person’s appearance.

Su Wan was very self-aware. She was not so charming that she could make this crazy man fall in love with her.

Otherwise, when she was on Planet Aquamarine with Jiang Xuecheng, Fiennes would not have planned the car crash without hesitation.

If she and Jiang Xuecheng were not so lucky, they would have been eaten by the sea fish long ago!

“Young Master Fiennes, you must be joking. I will not joke about such a big thing like marriage. Whether you believe it or not, I am already married.”

Su Wan smiled awkwardly at Fiennes. For a moment, she could not figure out what this man meant.

What benefits would Fiennes have bringing up marriage?

It was precisely because Su Wan could not think of it that she felt the most terrified.

With Fiennes’ background and the opportunity to fight for power at this moment, he should find a well-matched noble and socialite who could help him.

Of course, she could not rule out the possibility that Fiennes was trying to sugar-coat her, but Su Wan subconsciously rejected this possibility.

Because from Fiennes’ expression, it seemed that he was serious…

Just as Su Wan was puzzled, Fiennes suddenly spoke.

“Miss Su, are you trying to say that you are married to the Emperor? At the banquet, His Highness did personally propose to you, but both of you are unmarried on your identity documents.”

As Fiennes spoke, his eyes were locked onto Su Wan with a burning gaze. His pair of azure blue eyes were as deep and unfathomable as the ocean.

“Since Miss Su has yet to officially make an engagement with the emperor, then to me, I have the right to pursue Miss Su, right?”

When Su Wan heard this, the corners of her lips twitched speechlessly.

She did not understand why Fiennes would insist on this point.

If Fiennes were to marry her, there would be no benefit at all…

Wait a minute…

When Su Wan saw Fiennes mention Jiang Xuecheng, she was stunned and instantly thought of something!

If there was only one thing she had left to use, it was most likely that Fiennes wanted to use her against Jiang Xuecheng.

Since Fiennes saw that she was not dead, he must have expected that Jiang Xuecheng was still alive and well in some corner of the world.

Su Wan had not seen Jiang Xuecheng for the past few days. She was extremely anxious, afraid that something would happen to Jiang Xuecheng.

However, judging from Fiennes’ expression, there should be nothing happening to Jiang Xuecheng at the moment, right?

As long as he was fine…

She was obviously under someone’s control now, but when she thought that Jiang Xuecheng should still be safe for the time being, Su Wan let out an inexplicable sigh of relief.

She also became calmer than before.

“Young Master Fiennes, let’s not talk about the other things between the two of us. Our family backgrounds are not very suitable. Moreover, you said before that His Highness had proposed to me before. It’s impossible for me to marry someone else.”

Su Wan’s resolute voice swept past his ears. Fiennes’ hand, which was hidden under his sleeve, suddenly clenched.

The back of his pale hand could not help but show veins of malevolence.

It had been a long time since he had experienced the feeling of being rejected by others.

But it didn’t matter. As long as it was what he wanted, there was never a reason why he couldn’t get it.

If worst came to worst, he could just snatch it. If he couldn’t snatch it, he could just destroy it. If he couldn’t get it, at least he couldn’t give it to others.

This was probably Fiennes’ value.

“What if he dies?”

Fiennes looked at Su Wan calmly and said these words indifferently, as if he wasn’t talking about the life and death of Jiang Xuecheng, but about what lunch he would have tomorrow.

When Su Wan heard this, her pupils suddenly widened!

Because Fiennes’ expression was too calm and composed, it was precisely because of this contrast that Su Wan’s heart suddenly tightened, and she subconsciously blurted out!

“What did you do to him?!”

Once she said this, Su Wan felt that she was too impatient!

It was just that there was no medicine for regret in this world. If she said it out loud, she would not be able to take it back.

Fiennes half-crossed his arms and looked at Su Wan calmly. His calm and composed appearance only served to accentuate Su Wan’s panic.

“Miss Su, what do you think I will do to the emperor if he falls into my hands? Will I throw him into the sea to feed the fish like on Planet Aquamarine, or will I torture him to death bit by bit?”

Su Wan felt a pain in her heart. She bit the corner of her lips and felt the smell of rust coming from between her lips and teeth. She instantly became a little more clear-headed.

Because he mentioned Jiang Xuecheng, she almost lost control of her emotions just now.

If she did that, she would only be following Fiennes’ train of thought.

She could not just sit and wait for death, nor could she be fooled by Fiennes with just a few words.

“Young Master Fiennes, since you just used ‘if,’ can I determine that you can’t catch His Highness, let alone kill him in any way…”

Fiennes smiled, as if he was in a good mood, and his voice became deeper and more pleasant.

“Why are you so sure, Miss Su? What if I say that I’ve already caught His Highness and even confronted him face to face?”

Su Wan’s heart skipped a beat, and her hands slightly clenched, and her fingertips unconsciously became a bit pale.

“His Highness is my husband, and I believe in him. Even if he’s confronted you, it’s impossible for him to be caught so easily by you.”

Jiang Xuecheng was not her. Whether it was in terms of physical fitness or astuteness, he was far superior to her. If he had any plans, he must have been well prepared.

Otherwise, Jiang Xuecheng would not have deliberately said that he would be leaving for three to five days.

Obviously, he had received some news, but he did not want to put her in danger by following him.

Fiennes seemed to have expected Su Wan to say that. He reached out his palm and slapped it three times.

In fact, Su Wan’s guess was correct.

Indeed, the Jiang Xuecheng didn’t fall into his hands.

Moreover, not only that, he even saved the high priest!

When Fiennes found out about this, he was so furious that he wanted to expose the entire God’s Palace!

Jiang Xuecheng brought along the heavily injured high priest and wanted to leave the secret chamber of the God’s Palace. Obviously, it wouldn’t be that easy.

Fiennes didn’t know how many spies the high priest and Jiang Xuecheng had planted by his side. However, taking this opportunity, it was a good time to clean up the God’s Palace.

And he couldn’t tell Su Wan about these things.

…

“Miss Su, seeing how determined you are, I’m moved by your camaraderie with the Emperor. The emperor is indeed not in my hands right now.”

When Su Wan heard this, her face immediately lit up with joy!

However, before she could be happy for a second, Fiennes paused for a moment. His originally lazy and casual gaze instantly turned cold!

“But Miss Su, take a guess. Now that you are here, if I say that I am going to marry you, will the infatuated emperor come to save you?”
