Chapter 686: Searching
Su Wan stared at the light falling from the ring. Her slender body suddenly trembled!
It was gone. Even this was gone…
This was hers. Even if this man did not know its origin, even if this man was jealous, how could he just throw it away without her consent?
He did not know anything at all!
He did not know the significance of this ring to her!
The child was gone, and now even their wedding ring was gone…
Su Wan sucked in a breath of cold air. It was as if someone was gripping her heart tightly, and the string in her mind suddenly burst.
No…
Intense fear drowned her. Su Wan reached out her hand towards the window without thinking, wanting to grab the ring along the window.
But of course, it was futile. What she had in her hand was endless air.
There was nothing left…
Su Wan’s heart was empty. Her body slanted, and that slender figure gave people the illusion that she would fall down from the window at any moment.
Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome brows furrowed. He immediately reached out and grabbed Su Wan, pulling her back toward him with force.
Su Wan staggered and was caught off guard by Jiang Xuecheng’s embrace.
Jiang Xuecheng pursed his thin lips. At this moment, his face was shrouded in a thick layer of hostility. His gloomy appearance was like the sky that was covered in dark clouds, ready to rain at any moment.
“It’s just a ring. Su Wan, are you crazy? Do you know how deep the river is? Do you want to jump out of the window?!”
Did she know how high this place was from the ground?
If she jumped down like this, even if her head didn’t hit the ground, she would still be crippled if she didn’t die!
As Su Wan listened to Jiang Xuecheng’s reprimand, her vision turned gray, and she suddenly felt as if her heart was dying.
She suddenly raised her head and met Jiang Xuecheng’s gaze without any fear.
Although the other party was like a ferocious beast that wanted to bite her neck at any time, and her eyes were red, she was only a weak rabbit when facing Jiang Xuecheng.
But no matter what, she did not retreat.
“You are the crazy one! Not me!”
Su Wan’s voice was cold, as if she wanted to stare two holes into Jiang Xuecheng’s face.
“I am first and foremost a person with a will, not your slave! My ring belongs to me alone, that is mine, what right do you have to throw it away?”
She was really too disappointed with this man…
In the past, Jiang Xuecheng was not like this. At least, Jiang Xuecheng was willing to respect her opinion, but what about this man now?
Su Wan’s eyes were empty, and the corners of her lips subconsciously curled into a self-deprecating smile.
What was the point of her staying here? She did not like their relationship, and they hated each other?
“You–”
Jiang Xuecheng stared at Su Wan’s proud face, and the anger in his heart kept rising. At the same time, there was an indescribable pain in his heart.
Why did he have to tolerate this woman trampling on his dignity?
She was pregnant with someone else’s child, she lied to him, and she would always give him the cold shoulder. But why did he have to tolerate her?
Such an unreasonable woman…
Jiang Xuecheng pursed his lips. He only felt that someone had stabbed his heart with a knife. At any moment, the bloody flesh would be torn off and broken into pieces.
It was so painful, so painful…
Su Wan thought about her ring and was not in the mood to argue with Jiang Xuecheng.
While Jiang Xuecheng was relaxed, she suddenly pulled away from Jiang Xuecheng’s arm that was restraining her!
Because she had broken free from Jiang Xuecheng’s restraint, Su Wan’s almond-shaped eyes were bright. She immediately ran past the door as fast as she could.
No matter what, she had to find that ring.
Jiang Xuecheng did not seem to expect Su Wan to still dare to run. He stood there coldly. When he saw Su Wan continuously approaching the entrance, he suddenly warned her.
“Su Wan, you want to find that ring? Stop dreaming!”
“There’s a river down there. Further ahead is a waterfall. Even if you can swim, the ring will soon be washed down the waterfall!”
Even without looking back, Su Wan could feel the sinister gaze of Jiang Xuecheng.
Su Wan’s footsteps paused, but in less than two or three seconds, she still rushed forward.
Her running speed was even faster than before, in a manner that showed no hesitation.
Although because of that Dragon’s Blood, Su Wan’s healing ability was much better than before, but after all, her ankle had a new injury from yesterday, and it had not completely healed up until today.
Before Su Wan could run downstairs, she already felt a fine pain, as if someone had pricked her with an embroidery needle.
Su Wan gritted her teeth and glanced at her ankle. She felt that the wound that had healed yesterday had opened up again and was dripping with blood.
However, Su Wan did not stop. She continued to run forward.
That wedding ring was the only solace here she had left. She could not do without it…
As he watched Su Wan run out of the door, Jiang Xuecheng remained motionless, but the smile on his lips grew colder.
Wasn’t it just a broken ring?
When Su Wan reached the place where the river was connected to the waterfall, she would definitely give up and retreat.
Would she give up her life for that ring?
The man suddenly remembered something. Su Wan had fallen into the water because of Diya. Even the lake water had drowned her. How good could she be in the water?
His eyes were dark, and his fingers were tightly clenched. Even the back of his hand was covered with veins.
Finally, the emperor quickly chased after her.
…
Su Wan did not stop. She took a few deep breaths and finally ran to the river that was facing Jiang Xuecheng’s study.
The river was not very wide. It was about three meters wide.
Because of the heavy rain last night, the river was not clear. Instead, it was slightly yellow. The river seemed to be overflowing. The speed of its flow was also a little fast. Su Wan could not see clearly how deep it was.
Su Wan was a little glad that she had been taught to swim by Jiang Xuecheng. However, she suddenly regretted that she had not learned well, so she was only a dabbler.
According to the speed of the river, and that the platinum diamond ring was not heavy, did It sink to the bottom of the mud, or did it flow downstream?
Su Wan was torn between the two possibilities, but there was no time for her to think about it for a few more minutes.
Su Wan gritted her teeth and finally jumped in.
Although the weather had been a little hot recently, the water in the river was very cold. It could even be said that it was bone-chilling.
The wound on her ankle had already opened up. Because she had come into contact with the muddy water, the wound on her ankle felt a burning pain.
The water that was not very clear was poured into her nose and ears. Su Wan felt particularly uncomfortable, but she could only endure it.
She narrowed her eyes and dug at the bottom of the mud. Her slender white fingers were already covered in mud, but she could not find anything.
How could there be nothing?
Su Wan choked on two mouthfuls of water, but she was still unwilling to accept it.
Could it be that it was really like what Jiang Xuecheng said, that it was washed downstream by the river?
Please don’t have rushed to the waterfall.
Su Wan prayed in her heart, she floated to the surface of the water and took two breaths, and then plunged into the water again…
