The Indifferent Young Master's Flash Marriage

Chapter 617 - A Banquet

Chapter 617: A Banquet

Because the blue diamond bracelet was similar to her parents’ necklace, Su Wan was really curious if it was a coincidence.

Therefore, Su Wan especially emphasized “His Highness personally chose it.”

If Jiang Xuecheng admitted it, did it mean that Jiang Xuecheng still had some memories of the past?

Otherwise, why would he only pick this jewelry among various jewelry?

After Su Wan finished speaking, she looked up at Jiang Xuecheng. Her sparkling almond-shaped eyes were filled with excitement.

Jiang Xuecheng naturally did not understand why Su Wan looked so expectant. He did not directly answer Su Wan’s question. Instead, he walked to the gift box on the table and picked out the jewelry inside.

It was the blue diamond bracelet that Su Wan had been longing for. It was shining brilliantly.

The blue rose carved out of the blue diamond in the middle was extremely exquisite and had an excellent texture. One look and one could tell that it was not an ordinary item.

The emperor’s eyes flashed slightly. He picked up the blue diamond necklace and looked at Su Wan with an unfathomable gaze.

“You mean this?”

“Yes, I like this bracelet very much. Did His Highness pick it out personally?”

Su Wan nodded her head hurriedly. She looked at Jiang Xuecheng expectantly and even repeated her previous question.

At this moment, she really hoped to hear a positive answer from that thin lips.

The feeling of being forgotten by the person she loved was actually very bad. Su Wan wanted to escape this sea of bitterness as soon as possible.

The man’s long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly. He looked at Su Wan calmly, not understanding why Su Wan was so excited.

“What if I say I did not?”

Every diamond in this blue diamond bracelet was carefully selected. It was truly a priceless gem. It was indeed something that an ordinary girl would like.

However, his intuition told him that the sparkle in Su Wan’s eyes was not just because the blue diamond bracelet was good-looking or precious.

On the contrary, it seemed like...

The man’s slender brows creased without a trace, and his handsome face suddenly had a hint of displeasure.

As Su Wan was immersed in the joy that Jiang Xuecheng might be able to recover his memories faster, she did not notice the subtle changes in his mood. She continued to look at Jiang Xuecheng with sparkling eyes.

Yes, it was this kind of gaze.

The emperor’s expression darkened, and it was like a thorn sticking into his heart. It was neither up nor down, and it made him feel uncomfortable.

He did not know why, but from the first time they met, Su Wan had looked at him like this.

It was as if she was thinking and searching for another person through his face.

No matter what, she wasn’t looking at him.

This feeling of being used as a substitute was particularly uncomfortable. As a proud son of heaven, how could he tolerate being used as a substitute by the woman he liked?!

It was simply a joke.

The man’s expression suddenly turned cold. He looked down at Su Wan. His voice was as if it had been quenched by ice, making people feel uncomfortable.

“I didn’t pick it.”

He was the one who lied about this sentence.

Back then, when the jeweler heard that the emperor of the God’s Palace wanted to choose jewelry for someone, he immediately presented dozens of pieces of work that he was proud of.

There were priceless high-purity rubies, rare pink diamonds, and all kinds of rare jade jewelry...

When this delicate blue diamond bracelet was placed in front of him along with dozens of precious jewelry, it was actually completely inconspicuous. It even seemed a little too ordinary.

But strangely, he had taken a liking to this bracelet at first glance.

He even had a sense of déjà vu.

So, without thinking, he chose this blue diamond bracelet.

It did not matter. Although he had never seen Su Wan wearing any jewelry before, Su Wan’s skin was white, so he believed that she would be able to wear any kind of jewelry.

When Su Wan heard what Jiang Xuecheng said, the joy and excitement that she could not hide immediately froze and turned into embarrassment.

Was she overthinking things?

Although blue diamonds were rare and there were even fewer jewelry made from it, this place was different from the original world. There were many planets that minerals could be mined from, and in a place like the God’s Palace, wouldn’t it be easy to obtain precious jewelry?

As Su Wan thought about this, her face that was originally filled with hope instantly dimmed.

She lowered her head and looked at the floor with some dejection. She did not look at Jiang Xuecheng anymore.

It was true. She was too eager for instant success. It was impossible for him to recover his memories overnight.

When the emperor saw Su Wan’s dejected expression, the displeasure in his heart became more and more obvious. It made him feel uncomfortable.

“I hope that you won’t put on such an expression at the banquet tomorrow!”

After saying these cold words, the man left Su Wan’s room like a gust of wind.

Who was he angry at?

Su Wan stared blankly at the door that had been closed by gravity. She did not understand why Jiang Xuecheng’s mood always changed so quickly?

She clearly had not said anything to offend him just now.

This man was simply inexplicable...

Su Wan could not help but stretch out her hand to grab the blue diamond bracelet in front of her as she ridiculed in her heart.

The exquisite blue rose in the middle seemed to have a special charm that made it almost impossible for people to avert their eyes.

Su Wan sighed lightly. She walked to a small cabinet on the other side and pulled out the first row of drawers.

She opened the black velvet box. Inside was an elegant and luxurious blue diamond necklace.

It resonated with the blue diamond bracelet in Su Wan’s hand. It seemed to be a complementary work of the same designer.

Su Wan stared at them for two or three seconds before she put away her parents’”Touched” necklace.

As Nono had used up all of its energy, Nono said that the necklace had lost its original hardness and needed to be carefully preserved. She reckoned that it would not be worn out in the future.

However, it did not matter. After all, this was her parents’ legacy. Su Wan felt that it would be good as long as she kept it.

She did not usually like jewelry. Other than the wedding ring designed by Jiang Xuecheng, she would definitely not wear anything else. She felt that it was a burden.

Su Wan glanced at the complicated light blue dress on her body and felt a headache.

She still had to accompany Jiang Xuecheng to that troublesome dinner tomorrow. Hopefully, it wouldn’t be a murderous banquet.

Ever since she found out about Fiennes’ feelings for her and Fiennes’ sister Diya’s feelings for Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan felt depressed.

This complicated relationship was really more than enough!

When would Jiang Xuecheng remember her and leave this damned place together?!

...

However, no matter what Su Wan thought, the banquet the next day still arrived as scheduled.

This banquet was held at Fiennes’ residence.

Although the scale of the banquet was not large, the people invited were all celebrities. Most of them were young men and women, and almost all of them were unmarried!

There was no other reason. Fiennes wanted to break off his sister’s interest in the emperor, so he naturally had to spend a lot of effort to find some outstanding young talents, hoping that someone would be able to catch Diya’s eye.

However, this wish seemed to be about to fail.
