As soon as she entered the front hall, she viciously kicked Chu Xiaotian several times, causing him to cough up blood.
âYingxue, stop causing trouble,â Su Qingzhi reprimanded her, prompting her to release Chu Xiaotian.
The poison in Chu Xiaotianâs body had mostly dissipated by now, and he lacked the strength to stand up. However, he glared fiercely at Su Yingxue. âSu Yingxue, you dare to insult me. 1 wonât let you off!â
âSay that again?â Chu Yihanâs voice was icy and authoritative.
Chu Xiaotianâs face paled as he lowered his head.
Su Qingzhi, with concern in his eyes, asked about Hanâerâs condition.
âGrandfather, sisterâs life is no longer in danger, but sheâs badly injured,â Su Yingxue replied, casting a regretful glance at Su Dingwei and Qin Wan. âThe wounds from her surgery are festering badly. If she had remained in the Regional Princeâs Mansion today, it would have been difficult for her to recover.â
Qin Wan cried out in anguish, âMy poor child, Hanâer!â
Despite her noble background and dignified demeanor, she couldnât help but approach Chu Xiaotian and slap him hard. âWhat right do you have to be Hanâerâs husband? Youâre not worthy!â
Chu Xiaotian was taken aback. Su Yingxue had Chu Yihanâs support, so it was one thing for her to hit him, but now even Qin Wan was hitting him!
He attempted to retaliate against Qin Wan, asserting, âHow am 1 unworthy? Itâs Su Hanâs fault!â
Before he could act, Su Dingwei delivered a powerful punch, his expression fierce. âEven if 1 am to be reprimanded by the emperor, I will avenge Hanâer today!â
He then engaged in a physical altercation with Chu Xiaotian.
Su Qingzhi observed quietly from the side, later asking Su Yingxue, âIs this the first time your uncle and the Regional Prince have come to blows?â
Su Yingxue shook her head. âNo, the last time I operated on my sister, Uncle almost got caught by them and subjected to corporal punishment. Fortunately, Ninth Prince arrived in time and saved him.â
She took the opportunity to glance at Chu Yihan.
Chu Yihan returned her gaze with a tender look.
Su Qingzhi nodded. âNinth Prince has been a great help to you and the Marquisâs Manor.â
Su Yingxue agreed with a nod.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, Su Dingwei and Chu Xiaotian had been fighting for a while. Su Qingzhi did not intervene, understanding the need for Su Dingwei to vent his anger.
If it were his daughter suffering, as a father, he wouldnât stand by either.
But after a while, Zhilan whispered to Su Yingxue, âMiss, Miss Han has awakened. She says thereâs something important she needs to say in front of everyone.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Su Yingxue nodded. âGo and bring Sister here.â
Su Yingxue helped Su Qingzhi back to the front hall. Taking advantage of Su Qingzhiâs momentary distraction, she quietly tugged at the corner of Chu Yihanâs sleeve. âYour Highness, did I keep you waiting?â
Knowing Chu Yihanâs reserved nature and lack of interest in spectacle, she wondered if her actions had inconvenienced him. After all, he had come to the Marquisâs Manor and assisted without making any demands.
Chu Yihan looked at her with warmth amidst the frosty expressions of others. âNo, I only wanted to see you.â
That day, amidst the commotion in the Marquisâs Manor, Chu Yihanâs sole concern was Su Yingxue.
As Su Dingwei and Chu Xiaotian battled fiercely, Su I Ian was brought out. She looked at the two men in the courtyard coldly and said, âStop.â
Though her voice was soft, it was enough to halt the fighting.
âHanâer!â
âHanâer!â
Chu Xiaotianâs voice was urgent, while Su Dingweiâs was full of concern.
Both men stopped and hurried to Su Hanâs side, equally surprised..
