Chapter 716: “Invite” Her Back!
Hearing the news of Su Wan, Director Fan’s forehead jumped. He subconsciously raised his eyes and looked at the emperor sitting in the main seat.
In the cold light, the man sat calmly. He tightly pursed his lips. His eyes were as gloomy as the sky that was about to rain, full of depression.
Director Fan furrowed his brows. He didn’t understand the emperor’s thoughts at all.
He originally thought that when the emperor heard the news of Miss Su, no matter how cold he was, he should at least express surprise or anger.
However, Director Fan couldn’t find these two extreme emotions on Jiang Xuecheng.
It was as if he hadn’t heard anything.
But if the emperor’s mood didn’t fluctuate at all… It was absolutely impossible!
Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng did not give any orders, the man reporting on the holographic screen could only suppress his surprise. He lowered his head in confusion and looked terrified.
Time pa.s.sed by minute after minute. The air was filled with a strange atmosphere that made people feel moved and fear in their eyes.
It was not a good idea to waste time like this!
The man reporting on the holographic screen could only use his eyes to look at Director Fan. It was obvious that he was asking for help.
What was he asking help for?!
He was not a popular person in front of the Emperor now, so he could not guess this person’s thoughts.
Director Fan felt bitter in his heart. He thought about it, but he still suppressed the anxiety in his heart and looked at Jiang Xuecheng.
“Your Highness, since there’s news about Miss Su, aren’t you going to ask where it is?”
As he spoke, Director Fan bowed his head respectfully. His tone was neither servile nor overbearing, as if he was completely considering Jiang Xuecheng.
Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng still did not respond, Director Fan’s expression turned cold. He finally braced himself and began to ask for constructive advice.
“Your Highness, do you want Miss Su to come back? Or do you want Miss Su to leave? With you like this, we don’t know how to deal with this matter…”
Director Fan truly felt that he was wronged. Yesterday, Jiang Xuecheng was clearly the one who brought Su Wan away, and then he came back alone. However, when he came back this morning, he began to look for Su Wan’s whereabouts with great fanfare!
This was simply playing them like monkeys!
Director Fan was a clever person who knew everything. Although Jiang Xuecheng’s att.i.tude was very unclear, at least Director Fan understood one thing. Su Wan still had some weight in the emperor’s heart.
Therefore, he did not dare to let anyone touch Su Wan rashly.
“Your Highness…”
Just as Director Fan was muttering to himself for the third time, the man sitting in the main seat suddenly stood up. It shocked Director Fan and the middle-aged man who reported Su Wan’s whereabouts.
Was he going to start issuing specific orders?!
Director Fan was inwardly delighted, but on the surface, he still kept a serious and respectful look on his face.
Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome face was indifferent. His phoenix-like eyes swept over Director Fan, who was standing beside him, and finally landed on the middle-aged man in the holographic screen.
“Where is she now?”
Jiang Xuecheng’s voice sounded casual, but it also carried an unfathomable depth.
“Previously, His Highness asked us to search for all the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps that were sent out in the middle of the night. After we checked and eliminated many possibilities, we suddenly discovered…”
Actually, it was a little complicated to say that Su Wan would be discovered.
Previously, when they searched for Ming Ye, Su Wan had stepped forward and concealed Ming Ye’s ident.i.ty. However, after the secret news of the G.o.d’s Palace searching for Ming Ye was released, it immediately implicated them.
After all, the memory of those guards weren’t bad. In addition, Su Wan was too eye-catching, she had escaped without any disguise.
That middle-aged man in a well-ironed uniform slightly furrowed his brows as he humbly reported.
Jiang Xuecheng’s thoughts churned. He had no patience to listen to that man’s detailed explanation.
The emperor’s phoenix-like eyes swept over, and his slender brows slightly furrowed.
“Get to the point!”
Although they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, the middle-aged man in the holographic screen couldn’t help but shudder when he heard the scolding from Jiang Xuecheng.
After all, the incident had happened so suddenly, and it was rare for him to show his face in front of the emperor. In fact, he had planned to go through the search process in detail so that he could show the emperor how hard he had worked and how meritorious he was.
But unexpectedly, he didn’t manage to please the newly promoted emperor at all!
The middle-aged man was a little depressed, but he didn’t dare to show it on the surface.
He quickly put away his little thoughts and directly reported the final result to Jiang Xuecheng.
“Miss Su is now on a transfer s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p. In about fifteen minutes, she will arrive at the transfer airport on Planet Lanhe.”
Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng still did not say anything, the middle-aged man mustered his courage and began to explain his arrangements.
“According to Your Highness’ previous instructions, we were going to bring Miss Su back directly, but we were afraid of alerting her, so we thought we might as well wait for Miss Su to arrive at the airport before taking action. Your Highness…”
Jiang Xuecheng nodded indifferently. His eyes flashed with a cold light.
“Before Su Wan disembarks, seal the path and bring her back in one fell swoop.”
After watching the surveillance videos, this woman seemed to have hidden too many things from him. One by one, he wanted to settle the score with Su Wan!
For example, who was the man with the Chinese name that Su Wan shouted?!
Jiang Xuecheng stood upright. His eyes were gloomy and his eyes were as cold as a G.o.d. People could not help but want to kneel down and wors.h.i.+p him.
The middle-aged man listened to Jiang Xuecheng’s instructions, but he still could not control himself. He simply began to probe.
“Your Highness, are we allowed to use force? …”
When Jiang Xuecheng heard this question, his face immediately darkened.
“Su Wan is a weak woman. If you can’t even bring her back, then what’s the use of me keeping you?!”
That pair of eyes that were as black as ink suddenly burst out with a cold light that was as sharp as a sword!
The middle-aged man naturally heard the anger in Jiang Xuecheng’s voice, but what was the meaning of this?!
Director Fan hurriedly looked at the holographic screen and gave the middle-aged man a look, indicating that he did not want to court death again.
Director Fan had stayed in the G.o.d’s Palace for a long time. The emperor’s att.i.tude towards Su Wan was too special. It could be seen just from the fact that His Highness had asked Su Wan to stay on the same floor.
Director Fan coughed lightly. He tried to figure out what was on Jiang Xuecheng’s mind and then said to the middle-aged man with a smile.
“Miss Su must be invited back, but there must not be the slightest bit of damage, understand?”
Director Fan emphasized the word “invited.” The meaning behind it was self-evident.
When the middle-aged man in the holographic screen heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded!
…
After cutting off the laser communication, the middle-aged man returned to the lounge dejectedly.
When he saw his superior return, a group of uniformed guards immediately surrounded him. The leader was the youth who had previously saved Su Wan.
