Chu Xiaotian’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. If Su Qingzhi, with his aloof and serious temperament, found out about Chu Yihan’s relationship with Su Yingxue, who knew how furious he would be?
“Your Highness and the Marquis’s Manor are naturally one family!”
Su Yingxue shot Chu Xiaotian a glare.
Was he trying to trouble her?
Still, in the Marquis’s Manor?
Su Qingzhi was suddenly taken aback. His gaze landed on Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue, and he suddenly realized, were they standing a bit too close.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yihan’s brows lifted in amusement.
Su Dingwei and Qin Wan, too, were momentarily stunned. Was Su Yingxue about to make a public announcement at the family banquet?
Su Dingheng tucked his hands into his sleeves, indicating that he knew nothing and didn’t wish to hear anything.
Su Yingxue showed no fear in front of everyone, but she was slightly worried about disappointing Chu Yihan.
Approaching Chu Xiaotian, she looked down at him kneeling. “Your Highness calls Ninth Price ‘imperial uncle’. Isn’t Your Highness a member of our Su family? Then what about Ninth Prince?”
“Ha!”
Su Xinlan sneered. “I thought you’d come up with something. Father scolded me before. Father, listen now. Isn’t your granddaughter trying to cozy up to the Ninth Prince? You have quite the nerve!”
“Aunt, it’s you who has the nerve, isn’t it? Sister Xue spoke the truth, but what kind of relationship do you have with Your Highness? Why did you help him up for no reason?”
Su Miaoyan’s young voice rang out clearly.
Though young, her words were precise.
Su Xinlan’s face turned red instantly.
She turned around to look at the clever Su Miaoyan, seeing that her third brother was not there, she raised her hand to slap her, “You impudent little…” “All! Grandpa, save me!”
Su Miaoyan leaped into Su Qingzhi’s arms, crying out for help.
Madam Yin, always dignified, stood up with a serious expression. “Aunt, who are you calling impudent?”
“Calling you out for the bast*** you birthed!” Su Xinlan never adhered to rules, especially not in the Marquis of Changxin’s Manor. Returning home, she continued in the same manner.
Unable to bear it any longer, Su Qingzhi ordered coldly, “Su Yingxue, bring out the family whip!”
“Yes, Grandpa,” Su Yingxue answered.
Zhilan fetched the vine whip. Su Yingxue twisted Su Xinlan’s arm, forcing her to kneel. Raising her hand, she delivered a fierce slap.
“All!” Su Xinlan’s scream echoed painfully, tears streaming down her heavily made-up face.
Su Qingzhi held Su Miaoyan and glared at her coldly, “If you spoke impudently again, you would have been kicked out of the Marquis’s Manor. The Marquis’s Manor wouldn’t tolerate your insolence!”
“Father…”
Su Xinlan bit her lip, feeling aggrieved. As an elder, she had been slapped merely for scolding a little girl. How could she face this?
When Su Yingxue helped her up, she whispered in her ear, “Aunt, if you dare to misbehave again, I’ll go to Changyuan Marquis’s Manor tomorrow and cure the Marquis’s wife.”
“Su Yingxue, you… dare!”
Su Xinlan trembled in fear.
A cold smile played on Su Yingxue’s lips. “I can save Consort Xiang and cure Cousin. Do you want to test my medical skills, Aunt?”
“Don’t…” Su Xinlan’s legs shook. She immediately restrained her arrogance and impudence, obediently returning to her seat.
She dared not let Su Yingxue treat that old woman. She was just waiting for her rise to prominence.. If Su Yingxue cured her, wouldn’t all her years of hard work be in vain?
