Chapter 535: Nothing That She Couldn’t Get
The man raised his head and swept his gaze across the pleading face of Diya. He looked at her with a cold and indifferent gaze.
“Miss Diya, your friend will accompany you during your birthday cocktail party. It is not necessary for me to attend.”
Was there a need to reject her so cleanly?!
Diya stared at the man in front of her without blinking. A trace of annoyance flashed in her heart. However, due to his identity, she did not dare to show it in the slightest.
The birthday cocktail party that she had carefully arranged was originally designed for this man. If the emperor did not come, what use would it be?
She had already made a birthday plan long ago. If the male lead was not present, how could she continue this big show if she was the only one there?
A hint of darkness flashed in Diya’s exquisite eyes. Her gaze was locked tightly on the man in front of her. She clenched her hands tightly under her sleeves.
It didn’t matter if she was called despicable. In any case, she had to hold this man in her hands!
Since she was young, as the youngest daughter of the Siswell Family, no matter what she fancied, there was nothing that she couldn’t get!
As for men, of course, it was the same!
Other than herself, among the daughters of the various large families who were of age, could there be anyone who was more worthy of the emperor than she was?
Diya restrained her expression and gave a silly smile to the man in front of her.
“Your Highness, just promise Diya. Diya promises that as long as your highness comes to attend Diya’s birthday party, Diya will not pester and annoy Your Highness anymore.”
When the latter half of Diya’s words fell into his ears, the pen in the emperor’s hand suddenly froze. He narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and his pitch-black pupils seemed to be flowing with a layer of silver moonlight.
“If I go, you cannot come here again to disturb my work in the future if you don’t ask my permission.”
It was still a clear and cold voice, like the distant moonlight in the horizon, within reach but not within reach.
It was really a harsh condition…
Could it be that the emperor did not like her that much?
Diya had always been conceited about her beauty, and she was still young. There had never been a lack of wild bees and butterflies chasing under her skirt, but why was the emperor not willing to take a second look at her?
But it did not matter. Even if the emperor did not take the initiative, would she not think of a way?
Diya secretly gritted her teeth. The unwillingness that surged through her limbs and bones was finally suppressed.
She slightly raised her face, and that flower-like smile became more and more dazzling.
“Alright! Don’t forget what your highness promised me. Then next week at the Glory World Hotel, Diya respectfully awaits Your Highness’ arrival!”
The young emperor did not look at her again,
“Miss Diya, if there is nothing else, you can leave first.”
Can’t she stay here for a while longer?
Diya’s heart felt stifled. Forget it. Anyway, she had already coaxed his highness to agree to attend her birthday banquet. She was already confident about the rest of the matters!
“Alright, Diya will leave first. His Highness has just recovered from a serious illness. Remember to rest well.”
Seeing that the man did not raise his head and only nodded slightly to show that he understood, Diya pursed her lips. She was extremely disappointed.
She looked at the man a few more times reluctantly before slowly walking out of the door and gently closing the heavy red bronze wooden door.
After Diya left, the young emperor raised his eyes and looked past the exquisite White Jade Mountain and water on the screen.
It was finally peaceful…
He put down the documents in his hand, stood up and walked to the window.
The breeze was clear and the young man’s back was straight. His black military uniform was like the deep sea in the night. It was unfathomable and lonely…
It was not that he did not understand what the girl was thinking. It was just that he was too lazy to figure it out and was lazier to respond.
Everything seemed to have been arranged. As long as he did everything step by step, this kind of life was peaceful, and he did not want anyone to disturb.
The young emperor lowered his eyes. For some reason, he reached out and rubbed the ring finger of his left hand, thinking that there should be a ring there.
But in reality, the ring finger of his left hand was empty, without any decorations.
The emperor subconsciously frowned. Why did he always have the illusion that he liked to wear a ring?
It was better to find someone to custom-make a ring for himself. Otherwise, every time he did rubbed his finger, he would feel a little disappointed.
It was as if someone had dug out something from him, and his entire person was incomplete.
At this moment, the man heard a knock on the door.
His long and narrow eyes rolled around as he casually glanced at the tightly shut door.
“Come in.”
With these words, the door creaked open. It was a servant girl who had come to deliver the dinner.
This servant girl was new. She had long been reminded of how her predecessor had been transferred out of this position. Thus, she didn’t dare to have any thoughts of overstepping her boundaries. She only respectfully lowered her head.
Being able to serve in the God’s Palace was already a great honor. And being chosen to serve the emperor as a maid was a blessing she had never imagined!
So to her, on one hand, she was flattered. On the other hand, she was terrified. She was afraid that if she didn’t do a good job, she would be forced to leave.
The maid silently looked at the emperor. She carefully held the tray and gently called out.
“Your Highness, this is your dinner.”
The emperor’s expression did not change and his voice did not carry any emotion.
“Leave it here for now.”
“Yes, Your Highness, remember to eat on time. In another half an hour, this servant will come over to clean up.”
After the emperor nodded, the maid placed the tray on a corner of the table. Then, she turned around without looking away and slowly left the room.
…
Baishan District, inside the detention center.
Su Wan paced around the room anxiously. She really did not know when she would be able to leave this damn place!
Nono had not seen her for so long. She would definitely be worried!
Moreover, she had only paid the hotel’s rent for seven days. If this continued, Nono and her luggage would probably be swept out of the hotel by the hotel owner!
There was also the matter of registering for the celebrity talent show. The deadline would probably be up soon…
Su Wan felt bitter in her heart. Unfortunately, the people in the detention center did not summon her again except for regularly sending her meals in the cubicle…
Su Wan was naturally not a spy, but she was also worried about her identity. After all, she was not a native born and bred. If she was beaten to death with a stick, how could she refute it?
Thinking back to what had happened a few days ago, Su Wan still felt as if she was dreaming.
Could it be that she had really seen wrongly?
How could Jiang Xuecheng suddenly become the God’s Palace’s emperor?
Su Wan let out a sigh. A handsome and cold side profile suddenly appeared in her mind.
That night, she definitely hadn’t seen wrongly!
But if it really was Jiang Xuecheng, why didn’t he reply to her at all when she was on the streets?
Just when Su Wan was troubled, the detention center’s door was suddenly opened!
