Chapter 943: Unspeakable Things
That night, Fiennes came to look for Su Wan.
Su Wan originally thought that Fiennes would be dissatisfied with her choice of Xiao Yuan and force a few more people onto her, but he didn’t.
Instead, he asked about the dispute between her and Diya’s mother.
Fiennes put his hands behind his back and looked down at Su Wan. His voice was clear and faint.
“I heard that you had a fight with Diya’s mother.”
Su Wan keenly noticed that Fiennes did not address Madam Wang properly…
After all, when Madam Wang was present, Fiennes had addressed her as his mother in person. Now, he was addressing her as Diya’s mother.
Obviously, Fiennes did not have a place for the middle-aged lady in his heart.
Nor did he think that… Madam Wang was his mother…
Su Wan wanted to get through this layer, so her expression became more and more indifferent. She raised her eyes and looked at the man’s deep, knife-like outline, and nodded her head calmly.
“Yes, she mocked me openly and secretly for my lack of upbringing, so I replied a little.”
A faint light flashed in Fiennes’ narrow eyes, so fast that Su Wan could not catch what this man was thinking.
Facing Fiennes’ gaze, she almost thought that all the thoughts in her heart had been exposed.
“I admit that I don’t like that Madam. Why? Is there a problem? For example, how much more respectful should I be when I see her in the future?”
Fiennes’ deep blue eyes were extremely deep. From his eyes, Su Wan could even easily see her own face.
There was a faint sense of anxiety.
Su Wan’s heart trembled. She quickly bit the corner of her lips and pretended to glance at Fiennes as if she was wronged.
Just as Su Wan was feeling anxious, Fiennes suddenly spoke.
“It doesn’t matter. You don’t have to pay attention to that old witch. If she bullies you, you can directly return the favor. If there’s anything, I can bear it.”
His voice was low and deep. His magnetic voice reverberated in the air, accompanied by the sound of bamboo leaves swaying outside the window. It was extremely pleasant to the ears.
Fiennes actually called Diya’s mother an old witch…
When Su Wan heard that, her eyes instantly widened!
She originally thought that Fiennes just did not like Madam Wang. Now that she heard his tone, Su Wan felt that she needed to re-examine Madam Wang’s position in Fiennes’ heart.
It was not just indifference… it was more… probably disgust.
Su Wan made up her mind and immediately nodded at Fiennes.
“Okay, I’ll remember it.”
That night, Fiennes suddenly asked to stay for dinner.
Su Wan was scared out of her wits, afraid that Fiennes would make an even more rude request.
However, she could not refuse him directly.
If it was just a meal, she could still bear it.
…
Thus, Fiennes stayed at Su Wan’s side to eat.
Su Wan sat across from Fiennes at the table. She felt that she was sitting in a fire pit, suffering all the time.
She had no appetite to begin with. Now that she was worried, seeing Fiennes made her even more nauseous.
However, Su Wan did not dare to show it.
She just ate her food in silence.
Su Wan could not swallow her food and only picked the dishes closest to her.
Fiennes did not speak at all. The two of them were like ordinary friends who were estranged from each other as they ate their own food.
The maid, Xiao Yuan, did not understand Su Wan’s words earlier, but when she saw the two of them eating at the same table, she felt that her eyeballs were about to fall out!
Why did she feel…
Young Master Fiennes and Miss Su did not seem to have any feelings of being lovers.
There was even an extremely awkward atmosphere surrounding the two of them.
Especially Miss Su. Based on the way she ate, it was as if she was counting the number of grains of rice in the bowl…
Just as Su Wan was quietly burying her head in her food, she suddenly saw Fiennes raise his head. His deep blue eyes fell on her, and his voice was deep and distant.
“Is the food of the Siswell family not to your liking?”
What… What?
Su Wan raised her head in a daze. She was so lost in her thoughts that she did not notice what Fiennes was talking about.
Su Wan immediately looked at the maid beside her, Xiao Yuan, for help. Xiao Yuan looked a little dazed, but at this moment, she was very clever and spoke on behalf of Su Wan.
“It’s probably because Miss Su just came here and is not used to the chef’s cooking. Miss Su, what do you like to eat?”
Through Xiao Yuan’s words, Su Wan finally realized what Fiennes had just asked.
It was really strange…
The more Fiennes’ attitude showed concern for her, the more Su Wan felt uneasy. If he really just wanted to lure Jiang Xuecheng out, Su Wan would rather Fiennes leave her aside first!
Now, this ambiguous attitude made Su Wan really scared…
She had heard a lot of rumors about Fiennes’ love affairs from Diya.
In short, this young master was also a playboy.
Su Wan was the most respectful to this type of people, for fear of harming herself.
Su Wan smiled at Fiennes embarrassedly.
“No, actually, I’m not picky about food. It’s just that I’ve been feeling unwell recently, so I don’t have an appetite for anything.”
…
What Su Wan said was the truth. Ever since she was infected with CHK Virus No.3, her appetite had been fluctuating.
Su Wan thought that by saying this, she would be able to avoid this topic.
She did not expect Fiennes to suddenly turn his head and wave at Xiao Yuan.
“I have something to tell Wan Wan alone. You may leave first.”
???
What was going on?
Su Wan looked at Fiennes in confusion, while the maid, Xiao Yuan, had already retreated sensibly and closed the door carefully.
The little girl even winked at Su Wan before she left. Her round face was teasing Su Wan.
It was as if she was certain that the two of them were going to do something shameful.
…
And Su Wan’s heart was breaking down!
She did not want to be alone with Fiennes at all!
Fiennes looked at Su Wan’s pale fingertips. Then, he looked up and locked his gaze on Su Wan’s beautiful face.
“Are you afraid of me?”
It was not a question, but an affirmative sentence.
It’s over, it’s over, he’s seen through it.
Su Wan’s heart skipped a beat. There was not much point in denying it now, so she simply nodded and admitted it.
“A little…”
When Fiennes heard the expected answer, his expression did not change.
However, in the next second, this man suddenly stood up and walked directly towards Su Wan.
Fiennes lowered his head and looked at Su Wan in an extremely ambiguous manner.
“Su Wan, if I say that I can cure the CHK Virus No.3 in your body, will you be more grateful to me?”
He was really fed up with Su Wan avoiding his gaze all day long, as if he was the plague.
However, on that day at the racetrack, even though Jiang Xuecheng was blindfolded and riding the horse, Su Wan still looked at him without blinking, smiling.
Why were there so many differences in the way people interacted with each other?
