Chapter 273: Shocked The Next Day
Jiang Xuecheng squatted down and tested the temperature of the water in the bathtub. The temperature was just right.
He smiled and put Su Wan gently into the bathtub. Seeing her calm look, he ran to the dressing room to get a set of clean women’s pajamas.
When he returned, Su Wan was still lying there obediently. Her eyes were shut and her long eyelashes were like two little fans, casting light shadows on her face.
It might be because of the hot air around that Jiang Xuecheng felt that Su Wan’s body was still hot when he touched her.
Su Wan slept quietly and her cheeks were pink like cherry blossoms, giving one an impulse to kiss her.
At the sight of this, Jiang Xuecheng frowned but did not think much. He took the bath towel and bathed Su Wan carefully.
Looking at her obedient and harmless look and the countless marks planted by him on her body, his throat moved.
The flame which was hard to extinguish had currently crept into his limbs and bones.
Jiang Xuecheng hit his head and controlled his eyes to be fixed on Su Wan’s face and not on other parts of her.
He let out a sigh and scolded himself for being shameless. He had tortured Su Wan for a long time just now and she must be feeling very tired now.
Moreover, Su Wan was under the effect of drugs. Taking advantage of her delirium, he had tried doing many actions that Su Wan would not do on usual days.
Jiang Xuecheng pursed his lips and quickly cleaned her. Then, he dried her and wrapped her in her pajamas.
Jiang Xuecheng carried Su Wan and covered her with a brand-new velvet quilt. Then, he ran to the living hall to get the hair dryer before drying her hair meticulously for her.
While doing all these, Su Wan was still quiet, as if couldn’t feel the external changes.
Jiang Xuecheng sighed secretly. He felt that the drug was too strong. Even the sound of hair dryer could not wake Su Wan.
After drying off the water on her hair, Jiang Xuecheng found another towel to dry her hair, trying to ensure she would not be bothered by her wet hair when she slept at night.
After ensuring her hair was completely dry, Jiang Xuecheng smiled. He touched Su Wan’s nose and placed her gently under the velvet blanket.
Su Wan’s eyes were closed and looked very quiet, just like a fallen angel.
Jiang Xuecheng was moved by Su Wan’s sleeping face. He couldn’t help lowering his head to place a gentle kiss on her forehead.
“Goodnight, sweet dreams.”
After wis.h.i.+ng her, he touched his brows and went quickly to the dressing room to get his pajamas, before taking a quick bath in the bathroom.
When Jiang Xuecheng returned to the bedroom, Su Wan was still very quiet. Even her previous posture had not changed.
He could see that she was really tired.
Love appeared in Jiang Xuecheng’s deep and dark eyes and his heart was extremely gentle. Looking at the woman he loved in front of him, he felt he could do anything for her.
Jiang Xuecheng switched off the wall lamp and then lifted the velvet quilt and went under it, locking Su Wan firmly in his arms.
When his cool hands touched Su Wan’s skin, he could still feel the heat on her. He frowned.
The effect of the drug must still be there. Until now, the drug in her had yet to completely dissipate.
She should be fine tomorrow.
When Jiang Xuecheng heard Su Wan’s even breathing, he relaxed slightly and went into dreamland while hugging her.
***
It was on the second day when Jiang Xuecheng discovered that something was wrong.
Early in the morning, when Jiang Xuecheng was about to wake Su Wan up, he found that the woman in his arms was still lying with eyes closed and her temperature was still slightly high.
What was going on?
The usual hallucinogen would usually boost the excitement and desire of a person but would definitely not cause a person to heat up for so long!
Sensing that something was not right, Jiang Xuecheng’s heart missed a beat. He tried to contain his panic and gently shook Su Wan’s arm.
“Wan Wan, it’s time to wake up.”
Su Wan remained unmoved. She lay peacefully under the velvet quilt and she looked the same as last night when she fell asleep.
Jiang Xuecheng’s heart seemed to have been seized by someone. His hands trembled uncontrollably and he shut his eyes. Then, he called her louder and even shook her harder.
However, Su Wan had no response, as if she had not heard him.
Jiang Xuecheng took a deep breath. His ears were sharp and he could hear her calm breathing. He couldn’t help reaching out to test her pulse.
Su Wan’s pulse was steady and strong and this made Jiang Xuecheng feel better.
Jiang Xuecheng got up slowly and his look turned cold. A person’s name appeared in her mind instantly—Sheng An’ning.
This woman had once given Su Wan a bottle of poisonous perfume. This time, the hallucinogen came from her too. So, Jiang Xuecheng thought this had something to do with Sheng An’ning!
Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome face was enveloped by a layer of danger and a strong intention to kill surged in his eyes.
Before thinking twice, he called Ah Si directly.
Ah Si had just woken up. When he saw that Jiang Xuecheng called him so early in the morning, he couldn’t figure out why for a moment.
His young master should have had a wonderful night with the young madam and if they woke up early, shouldn’t they be lovey-dovey? Why did he call him so suddenly?
Although there were doubts in his heart, he quickly pressed the answer b.u.t.ton.
Ah Si greeted him respectfully, “Good morning, Young Master. Is there anything you wish to order me to do?”
Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes moved. He darted a glance at Su Wan who was still deep in sleep and he began to speak with a deep husky voice with a trace of lingering anger.
“Get Sheng An’ning here right away. I don’t care what method you use, bring her to Fontainebleau!”
Upon hearing this, Ah Si was stunned. Although Jiang Xuecheng tried to calm his own voice, Ah Si, who had followed him for many years, could sense cruelty in his voice.
Sheng An’ning had indeed poked the bear yesterday but if Jiang Xuecheng wanted to punish her, there was no need to pick such a hasty method.
The person who could cause his young master to be nervous…
Had…had something happened to the young madam?
Ah Si recollected himself and asked softly, “Young Master, has something happened to Young Madam?”
Even after Ah Si’s voice died down for a long time, he did not hear Jiang Xuecheng’s reply. Just when he was worried, the sound of a heavy sigh was heard from the other end of the phone.
Jiang Xuecheng took a deep breath and coldness flashed through his eyes.
“Wan Wan has not woken up till now and I suspect it to be Sheng An’ning’s doing.”
