After all, a childâs energy was limited. Moreover, he was a child with congenital deficiencies. After laughing with Su Wan for a while, he finally could not bear the fatigue and fell into a deep sleep with his eyes closed.
Su Wan looked at Jiang Qiranâs peaceful sleeping face and felt that her heart was about to melt into a pool of water.
As she looked at him, she had never thought that she would like a child whom she had only met for less than a day.
It was as if as long as she took one more look at that child, she would feel countless entanglements in her heart, and every one of them was a pity.
The pain caused by her childâs early death seemed to be slowly suppressed when she saw Jiang Qiranâs peaceful sleeping face, and it eventually transformed into a peaceful state of mind.
The past was the past, and the present will also soon become the past. It was also a kind of happiness to cherish the present.
Suddenly, the moment when Jiang Qiran first opened his eyes appeared in Su Wanâs mind.
It was as if the starry night was a dazzling sight.
Even though it looked small and pale, its eyes were astonishingly bright. There was not a single speck of dust in them. They were as clear as lake water.
One had to know... This child had once stayed in the high priestâs laboratory. Even an adult would feel pain, let alone an infant born prematurely?
Su Wan slowly put the infant back on the sickbed. At the same time, she covered the thin and small body with the quilt and tucked it in.
Su Wan turned her head and stared at Jiang Xuecheng beside him very seriously.
âDid the doctor say how Qiranâs body is? Does he still need follow-up treatment? Or should I just treat him as an ordinary child and raise him?â
Su Wan did not realize that her tone had already become a mother who cared about her son.
A smile appeared on Jiang Xuechengâs lips. He reached out his hand and stroked the fine strands of hair by Su Wanâs ear.
âDonât worry, Wan Wan. Iâve already asked the doctor about this. Although Qiranâs body is a little congenital, he doesnât have any major problems. He just needs to recuperate the day after tomorrow.â
When Su Wan heard Jiang Xuechengâs words, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.
The corners of Su Wanâs lips pursed slightly. She could not help but shift her gaze to the thin and small ball in the middle of the ward.
She hoped that she could raise this small ball into a big ball as soon as possible!
The smile on Su Wanâs beautiful face was shallow. She bent down and planted another kiss on the small ballâs forehead.
For some reason, it seemed that as long as she did a more intimate action with Jiang Qiran, she would feel that the missing part in her heart seemed to be refilled back.
An indescribable feeling of gratitude filled her heart.
âIn that case, letâs bring Qiran back to the Godâs Palace and raise him.â
Seeing that Su Wan could not wait any longer, Jiang Xuecheng could not help but want to destroy this girlâs confidence.
âWan Wan, are you sure you know how to raise a child?â
Of course, Su Wan could hear Jiang Xuechengâs usual mocking tone. She raised her almond-shaped eyes and rolled her eyes at Jiang Xuecheng.
âWho is born to raise a child? I can learn if I donât know!â
Su Wan paused and looked proud.
âBesides, isnât an extremely smart person like yourself here? Youâre the one who took the initiative to adopt this little guy. You canât just leave everything to me when the time comes.â
Jiang Xuecheng burst into laughter.
âI didnât say that my intelligence would allow me to take good care of the child.â
Su Wan put her hands on her hips and didnât show any courtesy to Jiang Xuecheng.
âHey, hey, hey, Jiang, Xue, Cheng! Donât tell me youâre thinking of backing out now? If you dare to let Qiran go, Iâll beat you up.â
Jiang Xuecheng was stunned by Su Wanâs look of wanting to stand up for Jiang Qiran.
He pursed his lips and found it funny. At the same time, he felt a little helpless.
Why did he feel that ever since little Jiang Qiran appeared, he had become a second-class citizen in Su Wanâs heart?
Jiang Qiran had directly defeated his position in Wan Wanâs heart without wasting a single soldier!
Wasnât this momentum not too good?
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at the little guy who was still sleeping soundly in the middle of the ward. His expression couldnât help but be a little envious.
Back then, he had spent so much effort to win Su Wanâs favor. In the end, when this little guy came, he didnât even waste any effort and directly took over the mountain and became king!
Su Wan followed Jiang Xuechengâs gaze and felt that this guy was definitely up to something bad!
âHey, hey, hey, what kind of gaze is that? It makes people panic. Be careful not to be mistaken by Qiran as a strange uncle...â
Jiang Xuecheng was instantly speechless.
Was there a need to tease him like that?
Jiang Xuecheng stretched out his long arm and pulled Su Wan effortlessly, easily pulling her into his embrace.
âWan Wan, I really want to cut open your head to see what kind of weird thoughts are inside.â
Jiang Xuechengâs deep cello-like voice brushed past her ear, and Su Wan was shocked!
If a personâs head was cut open, would they still be alive?
Although she knew that Jiang Xuecheng was just joking, Su Wan still had goosebumps. Tiny particles appeared on her slender arms.
âDonât change the subject. Have you thought about how to take care of the child?â
Su Wan turned her head and looked up at Jiang Xuechengâs handsome profile very seriously.
Jiang Xuecheng smiled happily when he saw Su Wanâs serious look.
âWan Wan, should I compliment you for being serious? Or should I call you stupid?â
âHey, how can you talk like that ââ
Just when Su Wan was a little angry, Jiang Xuechengâs thin lips curled up even more.
âOf course, we have to ask experienced people about raising children. Weâll ask seven or eight maids, and then we wonât make a mess.â
When Su Wan heard this, she suddenly remembered that she could still do this.
That was true!
If she asked a few more maids, she should be able to raise Jiang Qiran to become more and more limpid, and eventually become a white and chubby glutinous rice ball, right?
Thatâs right. At this point, Su Wan still hadnât given up on her plan to raise big glutinous rice ball!
Jiang Qiran, who was sleeping, didnât care what others thought. He just curled up his small body and hugged the blanket even tighter.
...
After bringing Jiang Qiran back to the Godâs Palace, Jiang Xuecheng found a suitable opportunity to announce the death of the high priest.
However, the story wasnât that she committed suicide, nor was it that she was murdered. Instead, it was that the high priest had met with a natural disaster while traveling.
Once the Godâs Palace lost its backbone, it quickly became a pot of boiling water.
The ambitious nobles below became more restless, while others chose to support Jiang Xuecheng. The Godâs Palace was split into two factions.
Jiang Xuecheng didnât care about these matters at all. He was already trying to find a way to leave this world, and he had some vague clues.
Since the world was in chaos here, he wouldnât mind.
Of course, it wasnât good to be a boss without raising a hand.
Thus, Jiang Xuecheng had an idea. He wanted to hand the Godâs Palace over to someone with a noble status. He didnât know many people, and currently, the best candidate was only one.
That was Diya.
