âUnderstood!â Min Jiaâs face bore a lingering bitterness.
In the end, she still had to apologize to Su Han, that despicable woman!
She refused to accept it!
She wouldnât accept it, no matter what!
Madam Shengâs face was also filled with unwillingness. How could she lower her head?
But then she thought, if Su Han remained resolute in cutting ties with them, and if the case continued to be investigated, she and Min Jia would be sentenced by Lord Liang Jin. They might not face death, but they would surely be exiled.
Compared to exile, enduring a moment of anger now and persuading Su Han to return was the wiser choice.
Once she returned to the Regional Princeâs Mansion and fell into their hands, they would teach Su Han a lesson!
With this in mind, Madam Sheng took a deep breath and, after Min Jia was carried out of the carriage, followed suit. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As soon as the two of them arrived, the crowd immediately made their way, with some recognizing their identities and pointing fingers at them.
Min Jia glanced at them with disdain and snapped, âPeasants, get lost! Stay away from me!â
From the beginning, the peopleâs impression of Min Jia wasnât favorable.
Feeling frustrated, Min Jia arrived at the entrance of the manor. When she saw Su Yingxue, her whole body trembled involuntarily.
She was afraid of Su Yingxueâs brutality. This woman was too ruthless and showed no mercy.
Su Yingxue saw their approach and spoke loudly, âMadam Sheng, Min Jia County Lord, 1 heard youâre here today to apologize to my sister?â
Her voice was clear, and everyone at the entrance of the Marquisâs Manor could hear it.
Many nodded in agreement, saying, âI heard Miss Su Han was tormented by those two tiger-like old women!â
âOf course, they should apologize! In my opinion, they should kneel and apologize to Miss Su Han!â
âThatâs right! Kneel and apologize! Kneel and apologize!â
The crowdâs cheers grew louder. Madam Shengâs expression turned sour, and Min Jia turned around to shout, âWhat business is it of yours? You bunch of troublemakers. Shut up and stay out of my affairs!â
As a conferred county lord by the emperor, she was of noble status. When had these lowlifes earned the right to meddle in her affairs?
Su Yingxue observed Min Jiaâs aggressive demeanor. âWith the county lordâs attitude, not many will believe youâre here to apologize.â
âWe came here for a family matter. Even if we want to apologize, the Marquisâs Manor should at least invite us in before we talk, right? Miss Su, youâre in charge here. Surely you understand this basic courtesy?â
Madam Sheng suppressed her anger and spoke politely to Su Yingxue.
Was Su Yingxue deliberately embarrassing her and her mother and dragging them down?
They were noble and influential figures in Jiang Du City. They couldnât stoop as low as Su Han.
âIf youâre going to apologize, do it openly and sincerely. Let everyone witness it. It should be done in a dignified manner. Donât you agree, everyone?â
Every word Su Yingxue spoke was heard by everyone present. They all wanted to witness this scene.
âWhat do you mean, witness? Su Yingxue, youâre just trying to humiliate me and my mother!â Min Jia gritted her teeth.
âCounty Lord! Donât judge others by your standards. Not everyone is like you,â Su Han said coldly.
Su Han, despite being injured and carried out, stood tall and elegant. She may not be a county lord, but she exuded more grace than Min Jia.
Hearing this, Min Jia couldnât help but ask, âSu Han, are you trying to humiliate me? Iâ¦â
Madam Sheng quickly covered her mouth and whispered in her ear, âBear with it for now. Otherwise, youâll be exiled. Youâll suffer greatly! My child, endure it..â
