The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage

Chapter 858: The Shadow In Her Heart

Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng was going to go down to investigate the situation, Su Wan was thinking of what she could do. When he was about to go down, she immediately said that she wanted to go with him.

“I’m going too!”

Jiang Xuecheng turned around. He originally wanted Su Wan to stay in the car, but seeing the sincere look in Su Wan’s eyes, his tone immediately softened.

“Okay, but remember not to wander around. The situation is special now. Don’t give us any trouble.”

Su Wan smiled and nodded. She looked determined and promised Jiang Xuecheng.

“Of course. I will never become a burden.”

…

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng walked down together. She was glad that she was wearing a simple trouser suit today. Otherwise, with the muddy terrain here, she would really slow down Jiang Xuecheng’s group.

A lot of people were curiously looking in the direction of Jiang Xuecheng, especially the children.

They looked at their group with child-like wonder. There was a hint of timidity in their expressions, as if they were wondering about their identities.

Su Wan liked children. She wanted to go up and ask about the situation, but when she remembered that Jiang Xuecheng had said that they would be sent out first, Su Wan decided to wait until then to ask about it.

After walking around, Su Wan felt her feet go numb, but she did not say the word ‘tired’.

Jiang Xuecheng knew about the hidden dangers in Su Wan’s body. He was afraid that she would be tired midway, so he did not insist on looking at too many places.

However, even just walking around a few places, it was enough for Jiang Xuecheng to have some understanding of the situation.

…

On the same day, Jiang Xuecheng began to get people to formulate rescue and resettlement plans. They also began to transfer and allocate funds to the residents’ houses that had been affected by the disaster.

Su Wan did not really understand these things. However, along the way, she could vaguely feel the displeasure of the local executive officer.

When they returned to their lodging, the executive officer’s face had already darkened beyond recognition. However, due to Jiang Xuecheng’s authority, he did not dare to be angry and could only remind him softly.

“Your Highness, according to your distribution, the money might not be enough.”

Jiang Xuecheng turned his head to look at the collapsed buildings. His eyes flashed, and when his gaze returned to the executive, his expression was cold and cold, as if it was covered in a layer of frost.

“How could it not be enough?!”

“According to what I know, the God’s Palace’s funds shouldn’t be insufficient. If it is confirmed that the funds are insufficient, I will report the situation and apply for the funds again.”

Hearing that Jiang Xuecheng was willing to allocate more funds, the executive officer heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that Jiang Xuecheng wouldn’t go so far, and would give them a way out.

“Alright, Alright.”

However, Jiang Xuecheng’s next words were like a bucket of ice water, pouring cold water over the executive officer’s heart.

“Right, get someone to list the expenditures of the God’s Palace’s funds and hand it to me tonight. Don’t make a single mistake!”

The executive officer’s face sank. His heart was beating rapidly, and his expression was stiff.

“Your Highness…”

“Because we’ve been busy saving people and fighting disasters recently, too much money has been paid out. This data is too complicated. We might not be able to figure it out by tonight.”

Jiang Xuecheng looked down at the executive officer from above. Although his voice was faint, when it fell into the executive officer’s ears, it was as if a thousand tons of force was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.

“According to the regulations of the God’s Palace, every payment must be recorded. How can it be unclear? It’s just something recorded by a machine!”

Jiang Xuecheng paused for a moment. His voice was so cold that it sounded like ice breaking.

“Executive Officer Lin, time is precious. Send me the report tonight.”

“For example, the specific things you bought, the merchants who sold them are all clearly listed at the back! I want to see the quality of the tents that the residents live in!”

Jiang Xuecheng didn’t give him any leeway to ease the tension. He directly took Su Wan’s hand and led her to the lounge.

“Your Highness–”
