The hotel lobby fell into a long period of darkness, and at this moment, it finally welcomed the light.
Fiennes and Diya stood at the entrance of Glory World Hotel, forcing themselves to smile as they sent off the last guest.
The siblings looked at each other, especially Diya. Her brows were tightly knitted, and her silver teeth were tightly clenched. Her expression was uneasy and flustered.
The emperor had disappeared. What should she do?!
At that time, she had gone through great difficulty to get the emperor to drink the wine. After that, the emperor had said that he was a little dizzy, and then fainted!
She had thought that the effects of the medicine were too strong, causing the emperor to faint, so she had brought him upstairs first.
However, before she could make a move, she saw that man open his eyes. His gaze was so cold that it was as if he wanted to eat someone.
At that time, Diya even thought that the emperor would kill her!
She had never been like that before. She was scared and terrified. Her limbs and bones were filled with panic!
However, the emperor only glanced at her. Then, all the lights in the hotel were turned off. The emperor also vanished!
Diya wanted to chase after him, but an invisible wall of air blocked her!
She had no doubt that this wall of air, as well as all the lights in the hotel that had been turned off, were all the work of that man!
The power system of the entire hotel had actually been paralyzed just like that!
Although she had long known that the inheritance of a special ability was closely related to the purity of oneâs bloodline, the fact that the emperor actually had such tyrannical strength was something that Diya had never imagined at all!
Also, she had drugged him so heavily. Could it be that the emperor didnât feel anything at all?!
That incomparably handsome face was still as cold as ice. His eyes were filled with disgust and ridicule towards her.
Thinking of that, Diyaâs heart couldnât help but ache.
âBrother, what should we do? I really didnât expect that the Emperor would actually pretend to faint. Now... has he returned to the Godâs Palace?â
Seeing his sister become like an ant in a frying pan, Fiennes felt a headache coming on.
They had never thought that things would turn out like this!
Veins appeared on Fiennesâ forehead. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows in distress, not knowing what to do.
âDiya, donât panic. There might be a chance for things to turn around.â
He did not know whether he was comforting Diya or himself with these words.
Fiennesâ head was bigger than two heads, but when he saw his sister frowning and looking like she was about to cry, he could not bear to blame Diya.
Hearing Fiennesâ words, Diya stood rooted to the ground.
A turn of events?!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She had done such a thing to the emperor, yet she had failed midway. Would there really be a turn of events?
At this moment, a young man dressed in a guard uniform walked over quickly and nodded respectfully to Diya and Fiennes.
âYoung Master Fiennes, Miss Diya.â
Fiennesâ eyes lit up when he saw that young man. However, seeing that the other party did not directly report back, his heart suddenly sank and he guessed the answer.
âHow was your search? Is His Highness in the hotel?â
That young guard smiled bitterly and shook his head. âNo, perhaps His Highness has really returned...â
Hearing this, Diya seemed to be unable to accept it and took two steps back.
Did the emperor really return to the Godâs Palace?!
That medicine...
Could it be that it had no effect on him at all?
Diyaâs face turned pale. She looked at Fiennes as if her brother was her only protection.
There was no color on her beautiful face. Her beautiful lips kept trembling. She could only repeat those words.
âWhat should we do? What should we do?â
What else could they do?
They had already gotten into trouble, but they did not have any trump cards as backup. They could only wait and see what would happen!
This newly promoted emperor had just taken office not long ago, and Fiennes had not been in contact with him for long. However, according to Fiennesâ observation, this person was probably not someone who was easy to get along with!
If they had schemed against him like this today, perhaps in the future...
Fiennesâ heart sank. He heaved a heavy sigh and somewhat helplessly stroked Diyaâs forehead.
âHis Highness will definitely not spread such a thing. Moreover, the wine is not poisonous. It seems that His Highness has not been affected by the drugs. At that time, we will bite the bullet and refuse to admit that you were the one who placed the medicine.â
Thatâs right, there were quite a number of people who had the opportunity to come into contact with that glass of wine. Wouldnât they find a scapegoat?!
The emperor had just taken office. Although his bloodline was pure, how could there not be a few officials who were obedient on the surface but disobedient behind his back?!
Fiennes did not believe that the emperor would directly cut off contact with the Siswell family because of this matter!
âBrother, Iâm afraid...â
Diya was usually extremely arrogant, but at this moment, she was really frightened. She looked at Fiennes uneasily. Her amber eyes contained a touch of tears.
Fiennes glanced at Diya, and couldnât help but feel a little heartache. His sister had been spoiled, when had she ever been afraid of anyone?!
âBe good, donât be afraid. Today is your birthday, and these things will pass tomorrow. Things have failed, and there is no final conclusion. I will take you home first...â
Diya nodded, sobbing. She followed Fiennes into the maglev car and returned home uneasily.
...
The Grand World Hotel, which had been bustling with guests, suddenly became empty.
In a narrow studio on the second floor, a man and a woman were confronting each other.
The power system of the hotel had been restored. Su Wan saw the lights on her head.
Su Wanâs throat felt like it was on fire, but this was nothing compared to the shock and pain in her heart.
There was actually a day when this man in front of her wanted to kill her!
Su Wanâs almond-shaped eyes that were as clear as autumn water seeped out a trace of tears. Her throat was pinched, and she could not say anything. She could only look at the man in front of her with grief.
Was this man with the face of Jiang Xuecheng really her Jiang Xuecheng?
He looked at her indifferently. The faint coldness in his phoenix-like eyes was something Su Wan had never seen before.
His ink-black eyes were like the deepest darkness of the night, so dark that one could not see their own fingers.
Su Wan was stunned. She had never known that the man she loved could look at her as if she was a stranger. He was cold as ice, and even disdainful.
The lights in the studio were extremely bright. When the man saw Su Wanâs tear-filled eyes and sad expression, he suddenly frowned.
He did not like this feeling, and he did not like the way this woman looked at him.
It was as if she was missing someone through him...
The young emperor suddenly loosened his grip on Su Wanâs throat. Su Wan inhaled the air violently and greedily, as if she had been reborn.
However, before she could relax, she suddenly felt him lowering his head. His dark eyes seemed to be frozen with ice and snow.
Su Wanâs eyes widened. Before she could say anything, she felt that he had tightly held onto her body and kissed her.
It was an extremely fierce kiss. Su Wan even felt that. That was considered biting!
