“Auntie, I’ve instructed the kitchen to prepare some tonics for you and sister,” Su Yingxue said with a sweet smile. “After you’ve used them, you should rest early.”

Qin Wan could sense that Su Yingxue wanted to speak to Su Han alone, so she took Zhifen away and asked her to bring Su Han’s portion over later.

The candlelight in the room flickered, and the light emitted by the luminous pearl became even gentler.

Sitting beside Su Han, Su Yingxue raised her eyebrows. “Sister mentioned before that Min Jia’s expenses are huge, and you were suspicious. Did you notice anything?”

Su Han nodded. “Min Jia has a lot of expenses every month. Last year, she took out 10,000 taels of silver a month. I asked her how she used it, but she didn’t answer. When 1 questioned her again, she started to lose her temper and even complained to her mother. 1 had no choice but to give it to her, but 1 suspect she gave all the money to someone else.”

“Someone else?” Su Yingxue’s curiosity was piqued.

She knew that Su Han must have secretly sent someone to investigate Min Jia.

Su Han said, “A man often appears in her courtyard. I’m afraid their relationship is not simple.”

“Min Jia meets a man in private and even gives him money to support him?” Su Yingxue was taken aback. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

It was understandable that Min Jia would have secret meetings with a man as an adult, but what kind of man would make her willingly pay to support him? And the amount was so huge!

A year’s worth was a hundred thousand taels!

“What kind of man could catch Min Jia’s eye? He must be quite handsome,” Su Yingxue chuckled.

When Min Jia saw Zi Wei, her eyes lit up. It was obvious how important his appearance was to her.

“That man is very cautious and has strong martial arts skills. My men were discovered once, so 1 had them watch him from afar. But no matter what, they didn’t see the man’s face clearly, nor did they know his background.” Su Han frowned.

She had a sharp mind and was born in the Marquis’s Manor, so her thinking was much more agile than that of ordinary women. There were very few things that she couldn’t find out.

She had always been puzzled by the man who had secret meetings with Min Jia.

But now, she had a question she needed to bring up to Su Yingxue. “Yingxue, among the people that Min Jia sent to assassinate me, I feel like there’s an expert that I’m familiar with.”

“Sister, did you see his face?” Su Yingxue asked.

Su Han’s expression turned serious. “I didn’t see him clearly, but 1 think he looks like someone.”

“Who?”

“Su Jinxuan.”

“Su Jinxuan?” Su Yingxue’s eyes widened. Su Han’s words reminded her of the black figure she saw in Min Jia’s courtyard that day.

It coincided with Zi Wei’s figure.

Su Yingxue raised her eyebrows. “Su Jinxuan is a cautious person, much more alert than Su Yurou. Other than the day Liu Shulan married into the Marquis’s Manor, I’ve never seen him again. Ever since Grandpa returned, he has never appeared, but… I underestimated him.”

Su Han grasped Su Yingxue’s hand, warmth filling her eyes. “Yingxue, no matter what, sister have to thank you for everything you’ve done for me. 1’11 thank you when I escape from that devil’s place…”

“There’s no need for that!” Su Yingxue and Su Han clasped their hands tightly. “Sister and 1 share the same blood, and we are both daughters of the Su family. Naturally, we have to love each other. Compared to a glorious family, I think Grandpa would prefer to see everyone in the Marquis’s Manor be safe and sound..”
