The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage

It felt lonely and desolate seeing that Jiang Xuecheng had been staring at Su Wan behind the glass window, seemingly shrouded in haze.

The high priest calmly looked at the young man.  The corners of her lips curved slightly, and a cold smile appeared on her face.

Her beautiful eyes were as silent as the night, with an indescribable coldness.

Things had developed to this point, and it was just as she had hoped.  The high priest was initially angry because Jiang Xuecheng was too protective of Su Wan, and she even had a headache.  However, at this moment, there was a new turn of events.

The high priest looked away indifferently.  She waved her hand, and her beautiful eyes casually swept past the female doctor beside her.

"You go out first.  I want to talk to His Highness about something alone."

"Yes."

Intimidated by the high priest's aura, the female doctor nodded her head in fear and trepidation.  She was a little confused in her heart.

Why did she feel that the atmosphere was so strange?

Whether it was the high priest or the emperor, both of them were emitting a low pressure that made the female doctor almost unable to withstand.

The female doctor bit the corner of her lips slightly and hurriedly nodded to the two important figures in front of her before quickly stepping out.

After the female doctor left, only the high priest and Jiang Xuecheng were left outside the ward.

The distance between the two of them was about three to four steps.  There was a faint estrangement between them.

The high priest shifted her gaze to the young man beside her.  She suddenly opened her mouth and broke the silence.

"How long have you known that woman called Su Wan?  That child..."

Without waiting for the high priest to finish, the man suddenly raised his head.  His expression was so gloomy that it looked like the sky was about to rain.

"High priest, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Sensing the undisguised anger in Jiang Xuecheng, the high priest's pale lips curled into a faint smile.

"Whatever you are thinking now, I want to say something.  Your Highness, I have long suspected that that woman was a spy sent from somewhere."

The high priest paused and added.

"Think about it carefully.  You and Su Wan only met for the first time, but she's obviously very good at confusing people.  In just a few short days, she already has an intimate relationship with you.  If it weren't for this accident, perhaps she would have directly said that this child is yours."

"After all, there's only a difference of a dozen days, and the delivery date wouldn't have made much of a difference.  If Su Wan bribed the doctor to hide the month of her child..."

The high priest's voice was still as calm as the lake.  However, every word pierced into Jiang Xuecheng's heart, dripping with blood.

"Enough!"

Upon hearing the high priest's guess, the man's face was as cold as ice.  His long eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and his entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of ice and snow.

"This kind of woman with a complicated identity and a fickle nature is not to be regretted even if she dies.  Your Highness, why are you still reluctant to part with her?  If you can't do it, then I don't mind doing it myself.  I don't want to embarrass the entire God's Palace because of Su Wan!"

The high priest spoke harshly, and her originally calm voice became as sharp as a knife.

Reluctant to part with Su Wan?

When Jiang Xuecheng heard these words, he could not help but feel a little absent-minded.

He had just promised to be together with Su Wan yesterday.  It had only been a day, but he already felt that the world had changed.  Everything had changed.

If it had been someone else who had betrayed him like this, perhaps they would not even have a place to die.  But now, his heart was only aching, and he had not thought of how to deal with Su Wan at all.

He had not even thought of letting Su Wan die.

There was a voice in his subconscious telling him that if he really did this, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Even though Su Wan's current behavior had disappointed him greatly, he had never thought of punishing her like this.

Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng was in a daze and ignoring her, the high priest gritted her teeth.  She suddenly had the urge to slap this young man's face.

She had a glorious status, so where had she ever received such cold treatment?

If it wasn't for the fact that fate was approaching, she wouldn't have been so scheming to step down from the position of the emperor.

Power was indeed something that could bewitch people's hearts.  She had had enough power, but now, she had become even more greedy.  She wanted to seek eternal life.

People who had Dragon's Blood might have a slightly longer lifespan than ordinary people, and their looks would age a little slower.  However, for the high priest, this was far from enough.

She cherished her looks, money, status, and power.  She did not want to lose all of them.

Therefore, sooner or later, she would have to find an heir to take care of those troublesome trifles for her.  Meanwhile, she would focus on researching how to live forever.

The high priest glanced at Jiang Xuecheng with extreme disappointment, and her voice turned into ice.

"I have taught you so much, but you are actually soft-hearted for an insignificant woman.  You really disappoint me."

The corners of Jiang Xuecheng's lips were pursed, and he met the high priest's eyes without any fear.

"Su Wan is mine.  Don't touch her until I've thought it through!"

The high priest snorted coldly again.  The clear spring-like voice was full of threats.

"Things aren't that simple now.  You're the Emperor of the God's Palace.  If you sully the reputation of the God's Palace because of that woman, you know what I'll do, especially that child in her belly."

Jiang Xuecheng hated it the most when people threatened him.  Even though this woman in front of him had given him the honor of his identity, it didn't mean that he was willing to let his life be controlled by others.

"You--"

Just as Jiang Xuecheng was about to say something, he suddenly saw the figure behind the glass window shake.

Jiang Xuecheng's eyes suddenly widened.  He saw Su Wan's eyes slowly open in the ward.  Her clear eyes seemed to be filled with a hangover.

Su Wan had woken up!

Jiang Xuecheng no longer cared about arguing with the high priest.  He quickly unlocked and opened the door of the ward and walked in.

At this moment, Su Wan's consciousness was not very clear.  Her dark eyes seemed to be watery as she looked at the person lazily.

She blinked and suddenly recognized the slender figure that was gradually approaching.

"Your Highness..."

The soft female voice brushed past his ears, making Jiang Xuecheng have the urge to reach out and stroke her head.

He subconsciously reached out his hand, but when he thought of the unknown child in Su Wan's Belly, his hand suddenly retracted.

It was as if his entire body was being stewed in a pot of oil.  There had never been a moment like this that made Jiang Xuecheng feel so uncomfortable.

Even though he was filled with anger, he could not let it out when he saw Su Wan's face, which she completely relied on him.

Su Wan saw Jiang Xuecheng's finger suddenly retract, and she could not help but frown.

Her original chaotic consciousness also woke up at this moment.

She and Jiang Xuecheng had been husband and wife for so long.  Although Jiang Xuecheng's expression did not change, she could sense that this man was angry.

Why was he suddenly angry?

Was it because she fell into the water today and didn't protect herself, which made Jiang Xuecheng worry too much?

Su Wan knew Jiang Xuecheng's temper.  She carefully reached out her hand and pinched the hem of Jiang Xuecheng's clothes as if she was trying to please him.

"What's wrong?  I'm fine now, right?"
