Whatever she wanted to do, he would make it happen.
This man’s indulgence.
“Yingxue.”
Su Qingzhi called her, and Su Yingxue immediately perked up.
She was shocked, realizing, “Oh no, did Grandpa see me gazing at Chu Yihan just now? I wonder how much he noticed.”
She quickly walked to Su Qingzhi’s side. Su Qingzhi instructed her to bring some refreshments for everyone who was waiting.
Su Yingxue went downstairs to prepare the pastries. When the pastries were served, the others were served by the maids. Only Su Qingzhi and Chu Yihan’s pastries were served by Su Yingxue herself.
Su Yingxue was serious and cautious in front of Su Qingzhi. When she turned around to Chu Yihan, she made a face at him.
Chu Yihan smiled. When she put down the plate of pastries, he deliberately put down the teacup. Their hands met in the air. Chu Yihan touched her soft fingers and gently squeezed them.
“Ouch…”
Su Yingxue let out a low exclamation. This man’s hands were really hot!
Had he been holding the teacup for too long?
Chu Yihan placed his hand on his chest and gestured that his heart was also burning.
Su Yingxue’s ears turned red.
Could he stop teasing her like this?
She had to maintain the image of the Marquis’s Manor’s legitimate daughter in front of everyone…
It was so difficult!
Su Yingxue decided to take a walk outside for some fresh air and to see if Zi Wei had returned.
Half an hour passed, but Zi Wei still hadn’t returned. Instead, Saint Ruan sauntered out of the medicine hut. He held a bunch of grapes in his hand, raising them high and biting into them one by one.
Even though he was just eating fruit, he managed to exude a sense of allure.
Su Yingxue rolled her eyes at him.
Saint Ruan strolled over to her and, right in front of her, put a grape in his mouth, intentionally biting it open. The purple juice slid down his throat, seductive and enticing.
If other women saw this, they would feel embarrassed and cover their faces.
But Su Yingxue remained calm. “You’re done preparing the medicine, and now you’re flirting?”
“Can’t I take a break? I work at your clinic, and when I don’t have money, 1 don’t get to rest!” Saint Ruan rolled his eyes at Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue wasn’t in the mood to banter with him anymore.
Seeing her frown, Saint Ruan chuckled. “Don’t worry. Your assassin is already on the move. Killing everyone in the Regional Prince’s Mansion won’t be a problem. Your sister won’t die!”
“How did you know I sent Zi Wei out?”
“I saw it. Besides poisoning, I have some other skills, you know?”
Saint Ruan maintained his flirtatious pose and ate another grape.
Su Yingxue had forgotten that despite his old age, Saint Ruan had excellent martial arts skills, so it wasn’t surprising that he saw Zi Wei leave.
But she was still worried. “If Zi Wei doesn’t return soon, my cousin might be in trouble. But since he hasn’t returned yet, I’m afraid my cousin…might be in danger.”
“Then prepare for your cousin’s funeral, and while you’re at it, prepare to kill this whatever Regional Prince in the Marquis’s Manor. After all, with Chu Yihan here, no one will dare to criticize you even if you kill him,” Saint Ruan said with a bitter smile.
Su Yingxue was just joking around with him when Mo Qi arrived.
He was carrying someone in his arms and flew straight into the Marquis’s Manor.
Su Yingxue quickly approached and saw that it was Zhifen in his arms. Zhifen’s eyes were filled with tears. “Miss Yingxue, please save our Miss!”
“What’s wrong with my sister?” Su Yingxue’s eyes showed a hint of urgency.
“Miss Su, I’ll leave her to you.”
After Mo Qi put Zhifen down, he quickly walked over to Chu Yihan’s side and responded to him. Chu Yihan nodded, and Mo Qi left again..
