âApologize to Cousin?â Su Yingxueâs eyes rolled. This Chu Xiaotian was no fool. He had managed to turn the situation around in such a short time, and he had even enlisted her rival Chu Chengyeâs help. He must have something even more disgusting up his sleeve if he wanted Madam Sheng and Min Jia to apologize to him.
Su Yingxue smirked. âAlright, 1â11 wait with my cousin at the Marquisâs Manor. Letâs see how your mother and sister apologize and how sincere they are!â After saying that, Su Yingxue didnât even give them time to react and promptly chased them away.
Outside the manor, Chu Xiaotianâs face remained grim. Chu Chengye reminded him, âSince brother has already thought of what to do, then this apology must be made. You must also show your sincerity.â
Chu Xiaotian thought for a moment and nodded. âI know. I will restrain Mother and Min Jia. However, I am not familiar with Lord Liang, the Capital Prefectureâs sideâ¦â
What he meant was that he wanted Chu Chengye to lend a hand.
After all, Chu Chengye was the most powerful among the princes. He was also the temporary Minister of Justice, so he wielded more power than him.
Chu Chengye reassured him, âDonât worry, Elder Brother. Lord Liangâs trial wonât be so smooth, nor will it be too fast. Elder Brother can still delay.â
Chu Xiaotian felt relieved. He returned to the manor and informed Madam Sheng and Min Jia about his apology.
In the manor, Su Han was so angry that she couldnât even take a sip of water upon hearing that they were going to apologize.
Qin Wanâs heart ached terribly. âHanâer, donât be like this. Donât hurt yourself for those people. You canât let anything happen to you again.â
Her daughter was already riddled with holes. Why was she still suffering?
Lying on the bed, Su Hanâs face was pale. The anger in her heart burned, making her feel uncomfortable.
âSister, thereâs no need to be like this. Answer a few questions for me first. Tomorrow, when they come to my door, Iâll make sure they regret it!â Su Yingxue came and held Su Hanâs hand, conveying a strong sense of security to her through her touch.
Su Han sat up and answered Su Yingxueâs questions seriously.
Early the next morning, Su Yingxue ordered people to carry Su Han out. She had suggested that Su Han wear a veil. After all, she was a woman, and it wouldnât look good for her to appear with wounds all over her face.
However, Su Han was resilient. She didnât wear a veil and appeared in front of everyone with a wounded face.
People came and went at the entrance of the manor, all discussing,
âIsnât this Miss Su Han who wants to break off all ties with the Regional Princeâs Mansion? Why does she have injuries all over her face?â
âMiss Han is indeed worthy of being the daughter of a noble family. Even with injuries, she still looks delicate and beautiful.â
âWhat a fine young lady. How did she end up injured like this?â
Most of them felt sorry for Su Han.
The carriage from the Regional Princeâs Mansion had just arrived. Min Jia was still in the carriage. When she heard the discussions, she exploded. âIgnorant! Theyâre all lowlifes! What do they know!â
âLowly peasants! How despicable!â Madam Sheng was also furious.
âEnough! Did you two forget Xiaotianâs warning? If you donât want to be exposed and exiled, get out of the car and apologize to your daughter-in-law!â The Old Regional Prince urged them with a serious expression.
Today, he couldnât accompany them out of the car, but he reminded Chu Xiaotian again, âBoth of you, remember this. No matter how the Su family makes things difficult for you, you must not make things difficult for your daughter-in-law. You must be humble.. Otherwise, neither 1 nor Xiaotian can save you!â
