Chapter 758: Su Xinlan Came Gritting Her Teeth
“I and sister don’t call her aunt at all! She tried to harm my two sisters. Are sisters going to let her do that?” Su Miaoyan’s straightforward words immediately enlightened Ye Lingbai.
“That explains it…” Ye Lingbai muttered.
However, he immediately frowned and shouted angrily, “Su Xinlan truly harms everyone around her! For her benefit, she doesn’t even spare her nieces. Such a wicked woman deserves no good end!”
“How she meets her end will depend on Madam and your actions,” Su Yingxue smiled and pointed to the pile of medicine on the table.
“These are the medicines I’ve prescribed for Madam. They will ensure her recovery and protect her from Su Xinlan’s harm. When Madam is well enough to get out of bed, you’re welcome to visit the Marquis of Martial South’s Manor anytime.”
Xu Aoqing’s pale lips tightened with resolve. “I will not let down Miss Su’s goodwill!”
Though still a pale, sickly patient, Su Yingxue saw a spark of determination in Xu Aoqing’s eyes and smiled in satisfaction.
“Su Yingxue, you might have a grudge against me, but why take it out on my sister? If anything happens to her, can you bear the responsibility?” Su Xinlan’s shouting drew closer.
Instinctively, Ye Lingbai drew his saber and stepped protectively in front of Su Yingxue and Su Miaoyan.
Su Yingxue’s eyes shone with approval.
Su Miaoyan, clinging to Su Yingxue’s arm, said, “Sister, he didn’t draw his saber earlier, which shows he’s an upright and honest person. No wonder he suffers at Su Xinlan’s hands.”
The upright and honest often suffer when dealing with the cunning and cruel.
Su Yingxue patted her head and praised, “Your ability to read people has improved! But remember, evil never triumphs over good. Someone as treacherous as Su Xinlan will eventually be defeated by justice!”
“But sometimes, when justice doesn’t come by itself, it needs a little help from you, sister!” Su Miaoyan said with a mischievous wink.
Su Yingxue pinched her nose. “Where did you learn that from?”
Su Miaoyan stuck out her tongue, not answering.
She hadn’t learned it from anyone in particular, but perhaps from spending time with her handsome brother and observing how he handled things.
In this world, the first person she admired was Su Yingxue, and the second was her handsome brother.
They were like celestial beings to her!
Su Xinlan’s shouting was a deliberate attempt to ensure everyone in the manor heard her, hoping to throw dirt on Su Yingxue’s name.
But when she walked in and saw the color returning to Xu Aoqing’s face, her heart nearly stopped.
“Sister, what is this…”
Why didn’t she look like she was on the brink of death anymore?
Had Su Yingxue treated her?
“Su Yingxue! What have you done to my sister? She holds a noble position, you can’t just handle her however you like!” Su Xinlan spat out through gritted teeth.
She wished she could tear Su Yingxue apart.
This wretched woman!
Su Yingxue laughed lightly. “Anyone with eyes can see that I’ve treated Madam, not harmed her. Madam Lan, are your eyes failing too? Would you like me to treat them as well?”
“You…” Su Xinlan choked on her words.
Ye Lingbai looked at Su Yingxue in surprise. She truly dared to speak her mind!
In the strict and disciplined Changxin Marquis’s Manor, they hated Su Xinlan in private but never dared to insult her openly.
Yet, Su Yingxue could speak so freely and comfortably.
It was truly enviable.
