Chapter 629 - He Treated Her A Little Different
Chapter 629: He Treated Her A Little Different
Before she was splashed with the apple juice by Diya, Su Wan was focused on talking to Jiang Xuecheng, and the smile on her face could not be stopped.
When Jiang Xuecheng was sober, it was rare for the two of them to have such a gentle exchange.
Su Wan even felt that she had the illusion of returning to Earth. She was pleasantly surprised!
When Jiang Xuecheng saw her unsightly way of eating, he even reached out to wipe the tiny bit of cream off the corner of her lips!
One had to know that Jiang Xuecheng had always been a germaphobe. To be able to make such a move, it could only mean that Jiang Xuecheng had feelings for her.
Even if Jiang Xuecheng did not remember her now, from his every move at tonight’s banquet, Su Wan felt that the day was not far away when Jiang Xuecheng would remember her!
Su Wan was full of ambition, but before she could be happy for a second, she suddenly heard an anxious shout behind her.
It was Fiennes calling Diya’s name.
That rich young lady had returned?
Could it be that she was trying to put on airs for her again?
Su Wan felt a headache in her heart. Just as she had a bad premonition, she instantly turned her face away.
However, although she was on guard because of Fiennes’ reminder, she still did not have the time to avoid the apple juice that Diya spilled.
Her light blue custom-made dress was instantly splashed all over by the apple juice!
In that instant, Su Wan was a little dumbfounded!
After all, it was such a public occasion. Su Wan thought that no matter how arrogant Diya was, she should restrain herself.
With so many people watching, it would not be good for her to spill the wine in public!
The sticky dress stood on Su Wan’s body. Occasionally, a few drops of juice would drip down her legs. Su Wan felt uncomfortable all over!
Su Wan frowned and lowered her head to look at her dress that had been completely destroyed.
The delicate embroidery on it had been dyed a mess by the juice. Even if she specifically asked someone to repair it, it would not be able to return to its original appearance.
Su Wan sighed softly.
The first thought that came to her mind was not that she was angry at Diya’s actions, but that it was a pity for such a good dress to be ruined.
She actually liked this dress very much.
When the man standing next to Su Wan heard Su Wan’s sigh, he thought that Su Wan was injured somewhere.
The emperor glared at Diya and immediately held Su Wan’s shoulder. Words of concern came out of his mouth subconsciously.
“Su Wan, are you alright?”
The deep male voice finally brought Su Wan back to her senses. After she regained her senses, she smiled faintly at Jiang Xuecheng.
“Your Highness, I’m fine.”
Diya saw that Su Wan and His Highness were completely ignoring her, as if she was air!
The Emperor had always loved cleanliness, but now that Su Wan was in such a sorry state, not only did His Highness not dodge, he even personally asked about Su Wan’s situation!
That woman must have fed His Highness some kind of bewitching potion!
Diya’s exquisite face instantly sank. She clenched her fingers tightly, her eyes constantly flashing with anger.
However, in less than a second, the heavy hostility on Diya’s face receded.
Diya quickly ran towards Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng, her face showing a pitiful and somewhat panicked expression.
She stood nervously in front of Su Wan. Her usually arrogant words were now soft, even mixed with guilt.
“Miss Su, I didn’t mean to do that.”
But in the end, Diya could not squeeze out a single teardrop. She looked at Su Wan’s disheveled dress and could not help but want to laugh.
She was the happiest when she saw her love rival make a fool of herself.
Realizing that she almost laughed out loud, Diya quickly put on a stern expression and continued to put on an apologetic look.
“Miss Su, I really did not expect that I would accidentally knock the apple juice away and end up spilling it on you. I’m really sorry.”
The soft and pitiful voice sounded in her ears, giving Su Wan a headache for a moment.
Diya’s pitiful acting skills were far inferior to Su Yurou’s or Sheng An’ning’s.
For some reason, Su Wan did not have any special hatred towards Diya.
It was probably because this girl basically did whatever she wanted and did not bother to hide her hatred towards her. She was like a girl who had just been in love and instinctively resisted her love rival.
Of course, Su Wan would never like Diya or sympathize with her.
After all, Su Wan was also a very petty person when it came to love. If Diya continued to stubbornly like Jiang Xuecheng, she would never accept it.
Su Wan raised her eyes and glanced at Diya. Her expression was somewhat calm.
“Miss Diya, I understand.”
Su Wan wasn’t someone who would just accept whatever came her way. However, she definitely wouldn’t lose reason due to anger.
Su Wan was very clear about her current status. Diya was the eldest daughter of the Siswell family, while she was at most just an ordinary chef in the God’s Palace.
Their statuses were worlds apart. If she caused any trouble with Diya here, she would definitely be the one to suffer in the end.
Diya did not expect Su Wan to not be angry at all!
She was just a lowly commoner girl. When she encountered such a situation, she was neither angry nor fearful. Instead, she looked calm and elegant.
If it were not for the dress that was drenched in apple juice, no one would be able to see her current sorry state from her face.
Just as Diya was in shock, she suddenly saw the man beside Su Wan already holding onto her arm. His voice was clear and unquestionable.
“Su Wan, I’ll bring you to change.”
Hearing this, Diya felt as though someone had exploded a thunderbolt in her heart!
She looked at the man and woman in front of her and saw Su Wan leaning on the shoulders of Jiang Xuecheng very naturally. Suddenly, intense panic rose in her heart.
Diya suddenly understood why Su Wan was so calm!
Wasn’t this woman’s attitude like this just because His Highness treated her a little differently?!
After being splashed with a cup of apple juice and making a fool out of herself, Su Wan must have hated her to death in her heart. In the end, because the emperor was beside her, she had no choice but to put on a nonchalant look so that His Highness would look up to her!
That’s right, it must be so!
Diya bit her lip tightly, her heart ringing with alarm!
Seeing that the emperor was about to leave with Su Wan, Diya’s heart became more and more flustered. Before she had time to think, she immediately ran forward and stopped the two people.
“Your Highness, you and Miss Su came in a hurry, so you definitely didn’t bring any ready-made clothes, right?”
Seeing that the emperor was about to speak with a frown, Diya hurriedly opened her mouth and took the initiative to voice her opinion.
“There are many women’s clothes in the lounge. I’m about the same height and build as Miss Su. Miss Su can make do with them so that I can atone for my sins.”
Just as Diya was feeling uneasy, she suddenly heard her brother agree with her.
“Your Highness, it will take some time for you to go back. Miss Su’s clothes must be very uncomfortable. It’s better to change out of them first.”
