âYoung girl, your words have a deeper meaning. Youâve also reached the age where you should be married. Do you have your ideas?â Su Qingzhi scrutinized Su Yingxue.
She possessed the same breathtaking beauty as Long Shuli, and her medical skills were even more remarkable. Running a clinic and overseeing the affairs of the Marquisâs Manor, she excelled in everything she did.
However, she was still a woman. How could she not have thoughts about marriage?
Su Yingxue didnât deny it. She asked tentatively, âWhat kind of person does Grandpa think I should marry?â
Su Qingzhi had pondered this question carefully. Previously, when Su Yingxue showed interest in the Seventh Prince, he hadnât opposed the idea of her marrying into the imperial family. After all, this Marquisâs Manor was Su Yingxueâs powerful maternal family, and she was certainly worthy of a prince.
But now that he was back and saw that Su Yingxue didnât mention the Seventh Prince at all, and when he came to visit, she didnât even spare him a glance, it seemed that chapter was already closed.
But her feelings for Chu Yihanâ¦
Su Qingzhi took out a visiting card from his sleeve. âThis is the letter Grandpa received today. Noble Consort Xiao sent it on behalf of the Xiao familyâs Eldest Young Master. Would you be willing to go and treat the Xiao familyâs Eldest Young Master?â
Su Yingxue raised her eyebrows. âThe Eldest Young Master of the Xiao family, Xiao Yu?â
She hadnât interacted much with the Xiao family in her past life, but she could tell from Noble Consort Xiaoâs demeanor how wealthy they were. It was said that the Xiao familyâs businesses spanned various industries, forming a virtual monopoly, and held sway over nearly half of the Great Cheng Dynastyâs economy.
The Eldest Young Master of the Xiao family, Xiao Yu, was a business prodigy who had propelled the family to even greater heights. However, fate was unkind, and he hadnât lived past thirty due to poor health.
Accepting the visiting letter, Su Yingxue thought to herself that Noble Consort Xiao was indeed astute. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Previously, she had received lavish rewards without any indication of what was to come. Now, she was being presented with the Eldest Young Master of the Xiao family.
âGrandpa, Noble Consort has previously come to my aid and bestowed me with many gifts. If 1 can heal the Eldest Young Master of the Xiao family, Iâm willing to give it my best effort.â
Su Yingxue had barely finished speaking when Su Qingzhi said, âWith your motherâs medical skills, thereâs nothing that canât be cured in the Eldest Young Master of the Xiao familyâs illness! Donât disgrace your mother.â
Su Yingxue was speechless.
Why did she feel like Grandpa was overestimating her?
No!
Grandpa was overestimating her mother. If she couldnât cure himâ¦
It would be like tarnishing her motherâs reputation!
Oh my god, so frightening!
Suddenly, she felt a psychological pressure!
The next day, Xiao Yu paid a visit.
After paying his respects to Su Qingzhi, Su Qingzhi naturally introduced Su Yingxue to him.
Su Yingxue looked at the Eldest Young Master of the Xiao family. His face was like jade, his skin smooth. If she hadnât known his identity beforehand, she would have thought him to be a delicate young master from some noble family.
She never would have imagined that he was a powerful businessman in the business world.
There was no trace of the cunning of a businessman in his eyes. He was calm and collected.
But he was also very aloof.
Upon seeing Su Yingxue, he merely nodded. âHello, Miss Su.â
Su Yingxue returned the greeting, and he said, âItâs my first time visiting Old General and Miss Su. Hereâs a small gift as a token of respect. 1 hope Miss Su will accept it.â
Su Yingxue smiled and replied, âYoung Master Xiao is too kind.â
Turning around, she was nearly blinded.
The courtyard was filled with boxes, the so-called âsmall giftâ mentioned by Xiao Yu.
How wealthy was the Xiao family?
Xiao Yu paid no mind to her astonishment, showing no change in expression..
