The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage

Su Wan's mind went blank, and she could only stand there in a daze.

She was poisoned? When? How long had Jiang Xuecheng kept this from her?

She clenched her fingers tightly, and her knuckles turned blue.

No wonder this man looked at her with hesitation. She thought that because of Diya and the high priest forcing the marriage, Jiang Xuecheng was in a dilemma.

It turned out that those were not the important reasons.

The root cause of his dilemma was herself.

After Su Wan thought this through, her vision turned black. She could not even stand properly. She almost leaned towards the green plants by the transparent glass wall.

Meanwhile, the high priest and Jiang Xuecheng seemed to be immersed in an argument with neither side giving in. Neither of them noticed that someone was eavesdropping outside the glass wall.

"Your Highness, are you threatening me? What a joke. Do you think that I can't find a suitable person to take up the position of Emperor just because you are gone?"

Jiang Xuecheng's expression was indifferent. There was an indescribable solemnity in his handsome eyes.

"Of course you have other candidates, but you won't find anyone more suitable than me."

It had been many years since someone dared to go against her like this. She did not expect that this emperor whom she had personally raised would actually go against her wishes!

What a joke!

"You--"

The high priest's face was filled with anger. However, when she thought about what Jiang Xuecheng had said, she suddenly fell silent for a moment.

What Jiang Xuecheng said was true.

She really could not find a more suitable person than Jiang Xuecheng. His bloodline was pure and his abilities were outstanding. At the same time, he did not have a complicated background.

The other people more or less all had some flaws.

Seeing that the high priest had been persuaded, Jiang Xuecheng decided to pursue the matter.

"High Priest, let's not beat around the bush. I know that you haven't been focusing on controlling the God's Palace for the past few years, but you can't bear to part with the fruits of your years in the God's Palace. That's why you need a loyal puppet. Am I right?"

The high priest nodded slightly. The corners of her lips curled up, but the smile on her face was extremely contemptuous.

"So what if I am?"

"You need a puppet, but you don't need the other party to be too ambitious. They also can't have an overly complicated family background, right?"

In recent years, the four great families had become restless. In particular, the various aristocratic families followed the lead of the Siswell family. The high priest wouldn't allow them to continue developing like this.

However, the high priest was definitely not willing to give up her authority. She supported people she did not know to control the God's Palace step by step.

The high priest arrogantly swept a glance at Jiang Xuecheng. Her voice was indifferent, and her expression suddenly turned ice-cold.

"Your Highness, what you said is indeed logical. However, you have repeatedly disobeyed my orders. Last time, you did not even hesitate to use force against me. Do you think I will trust you?"

The corners of Jiang Xuecheng's lips curled up at the High Priest. A mysterious smile appeared on his face.

"You may not trust me, but compared to others, I am more worthy of your trust. As long as you get rid of the CHK Virus No.3 in Su Wan's body, I really don't have any enmity with you."

As Jiang Xuecheng spoke, he casually glanced at the Persian cat in the high priest's embrace.

"In fact, I don't have any greed for the power of the God's Palace. You can take it back if you want. I don't mind. After you remove me, it won't be easy for you to find another obedient and capable puppet."

"High Priest, you have to think this through carefully."

Su Wan stretched out her hand to support the potted plant beside her. Her hand, which had landed on the edge of the vase, unconsciously trembled.

CHK Virus No.3, what was that?

What kind of threat would it pose to her body?!

That virus was lurking in her body?

When had CHK Virus No.3 been planted in her body?

The High Priest remained silent. Her noble and arrogant eyes were filled with disdain, as if he was not moved by Jiang Xuecheng's proposal at all.

Jiang Xuecheng did not care about the high priest's indifferent attitude either. He was still throwing out his conditions and assumptions.

The high priest looked at the young man who was trying his best to persuade her and rudely interrupted Jiang Xuecheng's words.

"But Your Highness, even if that's the case, I don't believe that you can let go of the poison in Su Wan's body. Just by relying on the poison in Su Wan's body, don't you still have to listen to me?"

Jiang Xuecheng raised his phoenix-like eyes and his tone returned to calm, but there was a hint of intimidation in his expression that had not been there before.

"How can you be sure that I will listen to you for Su Wan? Or maybe Su Wan and I can't take it and will fight to the death with you? There is a limit to how much pressure a person can take."

The high priest was about to say something, but the cat in her arms suddenly lifted its eyelids and moved violently in her arms.

The cat's emerald green eyes looked straight at Su Wan who was outside the glass window.

That Persian cat was so smart. It seemed to have noticed her!

Su Wan was stunned. She felt that the Persian cat was staring at her, and a strange expression flashed across her face!

Oh No.

Su Wan was about to use the potted plant next to her to hide her body when she suddenly felt someone reaching out to grab her shoulder and pull her to the side!

…

Both Jiang Xuecheng and the high priest felt that the Persian cat was a little strange.

They followed the cat's signal and looked outside the glass window, but they did not find anything.

A potted plant that was half the height of a human stood behind the glass wall. Its green branches and leaves were stretched out, because the wind outside was rustling.

The Persian cat felt that its master had ignored it. It quickly jumped off the high priest's body and ran toward the transparent glass wall, stopping behind the glass wall that held the potted plant.

Its cute little claws pulled on the glass wall, and its pair of emerald eyes kept blinking at the High Priest.

Was there really someone?!

Jiang Xuecheng and the high priest looked at each other.

The two of them stopped talking and quickly walked out of the door together. They raised their heads and looked at the entire corridor.

There was no one around. The gorgeous wall lamps flickered faintly, emitting a glazed light.

There was indeed no one around.

It seemed that they were overthinking things.

The vigilance in the eyes of Jiang Xuecheng and the high priest disappeared. The two of them walked back to the room that was separated by a transparent glass wall and started a new round of negotiations.

The high priest squatted down and hugged the Persian cat back into her arms. She was thinking about the possibility of Jiang Xuecheng's proposal.

A thorny matter suddenly flashed through her mind.

The High priest looked coldly at Jiang Xuecheng and finally gave him a plan.

"It just so happens that a new colony planet has been experiencing all sorts of disasters recently. I was just worried that no one would be able to appease it. Since you said that your ability is not bad, you can make a trip for me!"

That was a desolate and impoverished planet. The High priest wanted to give Jiang Xuecheng a good taste of suffering.

In addition, the high priest had her own plans.

She had been busy with other matters recently. She had disappeared from the God's Palace for too long. It was time for her to establish her authority and clean up those people who were itching to make a move!
