Su Hanâs eyes were filled with gratitude as she drifted off to sleep peacefully.
What she needed to do now was to focus on recovering her health.
The next day, just as Su Yingxue finished dealing with the household affairs, Zhilan came to inform her, âMiss, the Regional Princeâs Mansion has sent Miss Hanâs dowry and a hundred thousand taels of silver.â
Su Yingxueâs lips curled up. âTheir actions are very swift.â
She hurried to the courtyard where Qin Wan and Su Dingwei were staying. Qin Wan had already checked with Zhifen, and all of Su Hanâs dowry was there. Even the family jade bracelet that Su Han said had been stolen by Min Jia and returned by Qin Wan was there, along with other boxes piled up in half the courtyard, neatly stacked with a hundred thousand taels of silver.
Chu Xiaotianâs face darkened upon seeing Su Yingxue, but he had no choice but to address her, âSu Yingxue, this is what Hanâer wanted. Iâve already sent it all as compensation for her. When will you allow her to return to my residence with me?â
âSister is recuperating. With her injuries, she cannot move or work. Your Highness should be aware of this, correct?â Su Yingxue replied casually.
âThen you should at least let me see her!â Chu Xiaotian couldnât help but look anxious. The longer Su Han stayed away from him, the more uncomfortable he felt, longing to hold her in his arms as soon as possible.
âIâm sorry, sister doesnât want to see you. Your Highness, please leave,â Su Yingxue said with a smile, once again escorting Chu Xiaotian out of the manor.
She then went to the medicine hut to inform Su Han of the news and brought along the family jade bracelet.
Su Han placed the bracelet back on her wrist, looking pleased. âI thought 1 would never get this back.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSister, this is only a small portion of what you can reclaim. What they owe you must be repaid one by one!â Su Yingxueâs lips curled sharply.
Naturally, Chu Xiaotian was not satisfied with being chased away. Fortunately, Chu Chengye was helping him. Liang Jinâs investigation progress was slow, encountering obstacles along the way.
Chu Chengye had always thought that this would make Su Yingxue anxious, and she would try to help Su Han leave the Regional Princeâs Mansion as soon as possible.
There would always be a flaw to follow.
However, on the contrary, not only was Su Yingxue not anxious, she was so calm that he couldnât understand it.
On the day Chu Chengye was confused by Su Yingxueâs behavior, she was once again enjoying delicacies at the Ninth Princeâs Mansion.
Chu Yihan fed her mouthful by mouthful. Su Yingxue touched her gradually rounding belly, dodging Chu Yihanâs chopsticks. âEnough, Your Highness. If you keep feeding me, Iâll become a ball.â
Chu Yihan pinched her face, not entirely satisfied. âYour body is still so slender.
Iâll find another world-renowned chef to nourish you.â
Su Yingxue licked the oil from her lips. âYour Highness, please spare me!â
If she gained weight, how would he be able to carry her in the future?
Of course, Su Yingxue didnât dare to utter such embarrassing words. Chu Yihan dragged her out for a walk in the garden, and they began discussing serious matters. âHave the Shadow Guards found Su Jinxuanâs hiding place?â
Chu Yihan nodded. âYou can go see him tomorrow, but 1â11 have the Shadow Guards protect you. You donât have to worry about them leaking any information.â
âIâve never worried about Your Highnessâs people. Once we find Su Jinxuan, my sisterâs case will be much easier to solve,â Su Yingxue said, placing her hand on her bloated stomach.
She had waited for a few days without acting quickly, wanting to give Su Han time to recover so that she could seek justice for herself in court..
