Chapter 679: Marriage Proposal And Ring
Su Wan had already guessed that Jiang Xuecheng was going to apply medicine for her, so she did not reject him. She just lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Due to the loss of her beloved child, her face, which was originally full of spirits and energy, now looked haggard. Her eyes were extremely empty, like a withered flower without any vitality.
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan like this, his heart suddenly throbbed with pain.
He did not like Su Wan’s appearance at all. He felt that this woman seemed to have lost interest in everything in a very short period of time.
There was no hope left at all.
She had only lost a child, and she did not even know where its biological father was. Was it necessary?
Jiang Xuecheng pursed the corners of his lips hatefully, and his hand that was holding the medicine unconsciously tightened.
If that man really loved Su Wan, he would not have left her alone!
Jiang Xuecheng suppressed the anger in his heart. He put the medicine aside and bent his left leg very naturally, half-kneeling toward Su Wan.
“Let me see your hand.”
Su Wan was already in pain, but she did not want to make things difficult for him, so she reached out her hand obediently.
In fact, she did not expect that Jiang Xuecheng would be so careful and actually know that her palm was also injured.
After all, the injury on her ankle was more obvious. After all, she was just limping.
Jiang Xuecheng carefully picked out the gla.s.s shards for Su Wan. When he lowered his eyes, his expression was extremely serious, and it even gave people an illusion.
She was the most precious treasure in his heart, and she would always be pampered in his hands.
It was a pity that after seeing how tyrannical Jiang Xuecheng was, Su Wan felt that this man was too different.
On the surface, he appeared to be well-mannered, but the possessiveness in his bones was too terrifying.
In the past, they trusted each other and were very close. However, once their trust fell apart, it became all kinds of painful.
Jiang Xuecheng saw that Su Wan did not cry out in pain, so he raised his eyes and glanced at her in surprise.
He saw that Su Wan was gritting her teeth. Her lips were pale, and even her forehead seemed to be dripping with sweat.
“Now you know pain? Do you still dare to run barefoot on gla.s.s shards in the future?”
Jiang Xuecheng mocked Su Wan coldly. Su Wan’s expression froze, and she refuted him without giving him face.
“Weren’t you the one who forced me to do it?”
“You don’t know what’s good for you, woman!”
It was easy for Jiang Xuecheng to be angered by Su Wan. He glared at her angrily, and his hands unconsciously became heavier,
In the past, she had only stayed here for the sake of Jiang Xuecheng. However, the death of the child made her feel that everything was gray and she had no interest in it all. So what if Jiang Xuecheng had regained his memories?
Their child was no longer alive…
Such a young child had only been alive for nearly two months. It had never seen the beauty of the big world, yet it had died so young!
The more Su Wan thought about it, the more her heart ached. Although the place where the gla.s.s had pierced was very painful, it was far from comparable to the pain of losing a child!
Su Wan’s gaze focused slightly. She swept her gaze across the incomparably handsome man in front of her and an idea appeared in her mind in extreme despair.
People like them were not even worthy of being parents…
Perhaps it was better to separate…
Even if they managed to be together, they could only torture each other. Even if Jiang Xuecheng remembered her, it would always trigger the scar of killing the child with his own hands.
No matter what, it would still hurt.
Su Wan’s eyes were gray, and she did not have the strength to argue with Jiang Xuecheng anymore. She could only lower her eyes weakly, and her face was dispirited and lifeless.
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s appearance, he felt even more uncomfortable.
His hand went down and grabbed Su Wan’s sparkling white ankle with one hand. Because he was close to the place where the gla.s.s had pierced, Su Wan could not help but shrink a little.
However, other than the instinctive shrinking at the beginning, Su Wan did not do anything else. She did not even bother to say a word.
Her eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, were clear and light at this moment. The only thing missing was that kind of lively light.
Jiang Xuecheng stared at Su Wan’s pale face. Because Su Wan did not say a word, he felt a dull pain in his heart.
It was as if a fist had hit cotton. He could not exert any strength at all.
Jiang Xuecheng was very dissatisfied with Su Wan’s indifferent att.i.tude, but there was nothing he could do. He could only help Su Wan remove the broken gla.s.s on her ankle first and then seriously apply the medicine.
Just as he was about to finish treating her wound, Jiang Xuecheng suddenly pursed his lips. He felt that he could not continue like this with Su Wan.
He did not know whether it was his intuition or panic, but he had a strong sixth sense. If this continued, he was afraid that he would lose Su Wan.
In fact, this feeling was extremely absurd.
The G.o.d’s Palace was heavily guarded. In addition, he had deliberately increased the number of people guarding Su Wan. He did not even allow Fiennes to visit Su Wan.
Su Wan was a weak woman. How could she escape?
However…
Jiang Xuecheng raised his eyes and looked at Su Wan with a complicated expression. He wasn’t happy to see Su Wan looking so lifeless.
What he liked was Su Wan who was unbridled and had bright eyes. She wasn’t this lifeless puppet.
Even though she still looked like a jade sculpture on the outside, she had lost her soul.
The emperor was used to being surrounded by people, so he did not really understand the meaning of respect. However, at this moment, he really wanted to lower himself and get along well with Su Wan.
Su Wan’s child was gone. No matter how angry Su Wan was, she still had to live her life, right?
Jiang Xuecheng firmly believed that Su Wan would be influenced by him.
“Is the medicine ready? Can I go now?”
Su Wan saw that Jiang Xuecheng had stopped moving and was only staring at her in a daze. She could not help but frown and ask.
Jiang Xuecheng did not nod or shake his head. He still stared at Su Wan with that kind of infatuated gaze. Although it was no longer as violent as before, it still made Su Wan’s hair stand on end.
Su Wan had the urge to flee, but her feet were still in Jiang Xuecheng’s hands. She could not escape even if she wanted to.
At this moment, Jiang Xuecheng raised his face indifferently. Because of his gentle expression, his handsome features were unbelievably beautiful.
“I’m sorry.”
Su Wan heard Jiang Xuecheng say this.
These two words were very solemn, as if they came from his heart.
Su Wan was instantly stunned. She was really stunned. She did not expect that Jiang Xuecheng would apologize, and he seemed to be very sincere.
Su Wan’s face was slightly stiff. Before she could think of an answer, she heard the man who was looking at her burst out with shocking words again.
“Su Wan, I will marry you. Will you marry me? We will have many, many children in the future…”
Because he had to give Su Wan the medicine, Jiang Xuecheng had to kneel down on one knee.
At this moment, with his sincere expression, the proposal was not at all out of place.
The only thing missing was a ring or a bouquet of roses.
Su Wan was stunned for two or three seconds before she came back to her senses. She glanced at the ring finger on her left hand and suddenly realized something was wrong!
There was nothing on her hand. Where was the ring…
How could it be gone?!
