Chapter 752: She Was Forced To Accept Her Situation
The entire auction hall fell into a strange silence. Everyone’s gaze fell on the man and woman on the stage, secretly speculating about the relationship between Su Wan and the Emperor.
The spotlights were on and off, and Jiang Xuecheng walked towards Su Wan with steady steps.
The powerful footsteps seemed to be stepping on Su Wan’s heart, but it made people feel exceptionally safe.
But how did Jiang Xuecheng find her?!
After a burst of disbelief and joy, Su Wan’s heart was filled with panic, and she was at a loss.
Su Wan lowered her head slightly, and a strand of hair stuck to the corner of her mouth, sticky and uncomfortable.
She did not dare to look at Jiang Xuecheng at all!
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Su Wan’s mouth. Her hands that were bound by the rope tightened slightly, and her fingertips turned pale.
Even though she had always longed for this man to appear and save her like a god.
But when things really happened, Su Wan finally realized what it meant to be in a sorry state!
An unconcealable sorry state!
Her most unbearable side fell into the eyes of this man, and Su Wan felt utterly ashamed. She wished she could find a hole to bury herself in!
It was best if no one could see her.
Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan lowering her eyes. Her long eyelashes were fluttering with a hint of paleness and fragility, as well as a hint of evasion towards him...
A hint of gloominess flashed across Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes. He slowly lowered his head, forcing Su Wan to look at him.
In an instant, their eyes met.
The two of them were very close. Su Wan could even smell the exceptionally clear aura on Jiang Xuecheng’s body.
The expression on Su Wan’s face became a little sour, and a thin mist unconsciously condensed in her eyes.
This feeling was extremely familiar, yet it felt like a lifetime ago.
“Are you so afraid of me?”
Jiang Xuecheng’s expression was extremely gloomy, like the sky that was about to rain in June.
This sentence was voiced by Jiang Xuecheng close to Su Wan’s ears, and his voice was only loud enough for Su Wan to hear alone. Those who did not know, when they saw the two of them so close together, they would think that he was saying some sweet words!
When Su Wan heard Jiang Xuecheng’s interrogation, she was stunned!
Was she afraid of him?
Su Wan could not help but frown. In fact, she was a little afraid of this man from the bottom of her heart.
However, when she saw Jiang Xuecheng’s expression that looked like he was going to eat her alive, Su Wan could only shake her head against her heart.
“How... how could it be...”
Su Wan’s voice was very low. However, no matter how she pretended, she still looked extremely flustered on the surface. She even shifted her gaze elsewhere.
In the eyes of Jiang Xuecheng, this kind of behavior was not only guilty, but also perfunctory.
Jiang Xuecheng looked down at Su Wan with mixed feelings.
Sometimes, he really felt that Su Wan was like an ingrate, and she would stab him twice from time to time.
But if he really wanted to let her go, he could not bear to do so.
Su Wan had disappeared for so many days, and he could not sleep or eat well. When he slept, he would think of his second personality, so he only dared to take a nap for dozens of minutes, but he did not dare to really fall asleep!
For Su Wan, he did not rest well at all!
However, he had saved Su Wan, so how could this woman still be so heartless? She never dared to look at his sincerity.
Being stared at by Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan could not help but feel even more guilty.
When she thought of the fact that there seemed to be no one here, but there were guests everywhere, Su Wan’s face turned slightly red, and she felt even more embarrassed.
She looked at Jiang Xuecheng with some sincerity and began to propose seriously.
“There are too many people watching here. Help me untie the rope first and take me out of here, okay?”
The bright light shone in Su Wan’s eyes like glass, so pitiful that it made one’s heart soften.
When Su Wan saw that Jiang Xuecheng did not say anything, her heart became even more afraid. Her eyes slowly turned red, and she could not even speak properly.
“I... I’ll explain it to you later... Okay?”
Jiang Xuecheng could not help but snort coldly when he saw Su Wan’s meek and docile appearance.
Only a ghost would believe in Su Wan. This girl might appear meek on the surface, but in fact, she would not appreciate your kindness at all!
Jiang Xuecheng was angry in his heart, but his long arms had already stretched forward and pulled Su Wan into his arms with extreme force.
Su Wan was suddenly pulled out of the cage by a great force. Her whole body trembled and she subconsciously let out a cry of surprise.
Jiang Xuecheng’s action was too unexpected. Su Wan felt that her arm was about to be broken by him.
Su Wan glanced at Jiang Xuecheng with some resentment, but she also knew that this man was still angry. After all, Jiang Xuecheng would never forgive her for “running away from home”.
Thinking of this, the resentment in Su Wan’s heart disappeared. She could only stare at Jiang Xuecheng with her clear black and white eyes.
Her expression was a little ingratiating.
Jiang Xuecheng looked at Su Wan. He saw that Su Wan’s voice was enunciated word by word, and she was gnashing her teeth.
“If you dare to run away again in the future, I will break your legs!”
As she spoke, Jiang Xuecheng’s pitch-black eyes narrowed, looking extremely dangerous.
Jiang Xuecheng’s words were said close to Su Wan’s ear. His voice was extremely low, without the slightest bit of warmth.
Hot air lingered around the tip of Su Wan’s ear, like the ravings between lovers. However, it was filled with a threatening and cruel intent.
Su Wan’s heart trembled. She was forced to accept her situation, so Su Wan did not dare to express any opinions. She decisively and obediently laid her head on his shoulder.
Her silent appearance was as well-behaved and harmless as on Earth. There was even a hint of attachment.
Seeing Su Wan’s appearance of submission, Jiang Xuecheng’s heart finally felt better. He only forcefully carried Su Wan and walked down the stage.
Below the stage, Director Fan had been waiting for a long time. When Jiang Xuecheng passed by with Su Wan in his arms, Director Fan thought for a second and gritted his teeth to welcome her.
“Your Highness, how should we deal with the people here?”
There was a whole range of people here. For example, young master Keller, who had previously tried to take advantage of Su Wan, or those who had captured Su Wan and sold her...
As for the other guests who came to buy “goods,” they would probably be unlucky too. However, the treatment could be big or small, and it would still depend on the decision of the emperor. He did not dare to overstep his authority.
Jiang Xuecheng stood tall and straight. Although he was holding Su Wan in his arms, his posture was extremely stern. It was as if a living person like Su Wan did not have the slightest bit of weight.
He coldly glanced at Director Fan. His voice was cold and deep. It was so cold and decisive.
“Those who came to participate in the auction can leave immediately. Go back and reflect! Lock up the rest of them! As for how to interrogate them, do you need me to teach you?!”
When Director Fan heard this, he shivered. He now understood the emporer’s meaning.
It seemed that young master Keller had only lost an arm and escaped death. He would not have completely offended the Devi family,
The other guests were also fine. However, the people who were holding the auction were probably in trouble.
The emperor would definitely not let them go...
