Chapter 828: He Should Treat You Well, Right?
In a small studio on the same floor.
Su Wan stood in silence for a second with the man who had dragged her in.
The man wore a brand new black, gray, and white uniform. His leather shoes were s.h.i.+ny, and the b.u.t.tons on his sleeves were b.u.t.toned up meticulously. He had a very strict temperament.
But no matter how she looked at him, he did not look like a waiter.
Su Wan looked at him from head to toe. She stared at his pure black eyes and asked hesitantly, “Are you Ming Ye?”.
“You are Ming Ye, right?”
Although the color of his pupils had changed and the makeup on his face seemed to have changed a lot, Ming Ye’s body shape was similar to that of Jiang Xuecheng. Such an exaggerated height was also very eye-catching among the crowd.
Ming Ye raised his eyebrows, but he did not ask Su Wan how she recognized him.
“It’s me.”
Su Wan recalled what Diya had said earlier, and she looked Ming Ye up and down again.
“Did you take the same elevator with the eldest daughter of the Siswell family, and the elevator broke down? Are you okay?”
Ming Ye nodded lightly.
“If I’m not okay, then the person standing in front of you now wouldn’t be me.”
Su Wan nodded her head blankly. Because she had heard that she was infected with the virus earlier, her heart was in a mess, and she was unable to divert too much of her attention to Ming Ye.
Su Wan pursed her lips. She glanced at Ming Ye’s completely unfamiliar and extremely unrecognizable face, and finally managed to suppress the panic in her heart and asked Ming Ye softly.
“Ming Ye, why did you come here?”
Su Wan paused and finally reminded Ming Ye out of kindness.
“I know that you have a deep hatred with the high priest, but it’s very dangerous here. I suggest that you don’t act rashly.”
Ming Ye looked at Su Wan’s troubled and distracted look and felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
In fact, the first thought that came to his mind today was not to seek revenge from the high priest, but to see Su Wan.
After the departure from the airport, Ming Ye realized that the few days he spent with Su Wan seemed to have been inexplicably imprinted on his heart.
Su Wan’s mischievous smile when she was harpooning the fish, Su Wan’s panicked and tearful face, and Su Wan’s occasional concern.
He clearly knew that she had never belonged to him and would never belong to him, yet he still inexplicably wanted to see her.
He had never thought of fighting for anything.
He just wanted to make sure that Su Wan was doing well.
Since Su Wan wanted to leave this place so badly and had spent so much effort to escape, why did she suddenly want to return to the G.o.d’s Palace?!
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Ming Ye’s mind. His thin lips opened, and his voice was deep and pleasant to the ears.
“Don’t worry. I’m only here to check on the high priest’s situation. I won’t act rashly unless I’m confident.”
Su Wan nodded absentmindedly. She looked out the open window at the blue sky outside.
“That’s good.”
Ming Ye’s gaze was locked on Su Wan.
“Su Wan, what about you? Didn’t you want to leave this place wholeheartedly? Why did you come back all of a sudden?”
He had also heard that today, Su Wan seemed to be engaged to Jiang Xuecheng. It was no wonder that the eldest daughter of the Siswell family was crying like that.
At that time, when they met at the airport, Su Wan had said that she and the Emperor had already gone their separate ways. Looking at the situation now, the two of them were going to get back together?
Su Wan was thinking about her own worries when she heard Ming Ye’s voice. She turned her face slightly.
“I had some misunderstandings with my husband, and now that I’ve explained more or less, I’ve come back.”
Hearing Su Wan refer to Jiang Xuecheng as her husband again, a trace of bitterness flashed through Ming Ye’s throat. He nodded his head faintly.
“Looking at you, he should treat you well, right? Then I wish you happiness.”
After realizing that he seemed to like Su Wan, he had never thought of expressing anything to her, let alone fighting for it.
He was not a person who could give others happiness. Some things were better buried in the bottom of his heart and not be said.
Ming Ye’s voice sounded in her ears. Su Wan suddenly struggled out of her trance and nodded lightly at Ming Ye.
“Thank you.”
Su Wan recalled that Ming Ye revealed that he had a deep relations.h.i.+p with the high priest. When she thought of the poison in her body, she could not help but feel hopeful.
Perhaps Ming Ye would know something about it?
“Ming Ye, have you heard of CHK Virus No.3?”
As she spoke, Su Wan’s almond-shaped eyes were clear and bright. Her eyes could not help but reveal some hope.
The scariest thing was the unknown.
Jiang Xuecheng had to hide things from her and even argued with the high priest so much. Su Wan was not an idiot. She already had a premonition that this virus might be very dangerous.
For example, it could threaten her life.
Otherwise, Jiang Xuecheng would not be so fl.u.s.tered.
CHK Virus No.3?!
Ming Ye heard Su Wan mention this virus and his eyes suddenly locked.
“Why are you asking this? Do you have this virus in your body?”
Because thinking of this possibility of Su Wan being harmed, Ming Ye’s usually cold expression couldn’t help but reveal a bit of nervousness.
However, Su Wan had something on her mind at this time, so she didn’t notice Ming Ye’s strange expression.
Thinking of how Jiang Xuecheng hid those things from her, he must have his own reasons.
Su Wan didn’t want anyone else to worry about her, so she pretended to be relaxed and shook her head at Ming Ye.
“It’s not me. It just so happens that someone around me was infected with this virus. It seems to be very scary, so I want to know the inside story, but I have no way to find out.”
As Su Wan said this, she carefully glanced at Ming Ye.
“Ming Ye, looking at you, do you know something?”
Ming Ye observed Su Wan without blinking, as if he was trying to tell if Su Wan was lying to him.
If Su Wan was infected with this virus…
Ming Ye clenched his fists tightly, and his deep eyes flashed with a cold light.
“It’s good that it wasn’t you. Actually, I don’t know much about CHK Virus No.3. When I left the control of the high priest, they were studying CHK Virus No.2, mainly doing experiments on animals.”
Su Wan was slightly disappointed when she heard that. However, it was called the CHK Virus No.3 after all. It must be related to the previous two generations.
Su Wan held a glimmer of hope and continued to ask Ming Ye.
“Then, how do the small animals that were infected with the Virus No. 2 behave? Will they… will they die?”
When Su Wan said the words ‘will they die,’ her palms could not help but feel cold.
She still had a lot of things to do. She had just reconciled with Jiang Xuecheng. She still wanted to bring Jiang Xuecheng back to her familiar hometown.
If she was going to die like this, there were too many things that she had not finished yet.
Su Wan did not want to leave so many regrets in her life. She also did not want to leave Jiang Xuecheng alone.
She wanted to live.
Live well, together with Jiang Xuecheng.
