On the other side, Yun Wanqing was also dumbfounded.
[What?]
[Su Qianxue was knocked out again? The Yun Family?]
[Could it be that my sister really sent someone to keep an eye on Su Qianxue the whole time, and as soon as she made a move, they immediately took action against her?]
[If that’s the case, then my sister is amazing.]
[Also, it’s so late now, and Su Qianxue is knocked out. She definitely won’t complete her task on time. Nice, nice, my sister did a great job.]
Yun Wanyao: "..."
No, no, it wasn’t her; she had nothing to do with the whole situation.
Outside Prince Qi Mansion.
After knocking out Su Qianxue, Yun Wanye turned and left calmly.
Just as he left, Su Qianxue was discovered by the guards of Prince Qi Mansion, who reported the incident to Mo Yuanhao.
"Your Highness, the guards report that a woman has been found unconscious next to a dog hole outside the manor, um, it’s Miss Su..."
Ting Feng lowered his head, speaking so softly that it was almost inaudible.
This woman constantly pestered their prince before, using every trick to flatter him, and their prince absolutely loathed her.
Finally, she had quieted down for a while, and they thought she had truly given up on the prince, but little did they know it was just a wishful thought.
This woman had started her antics again.
Of all places, she passed out next to the dog hole outside their manor. If she wasn’t trying to sneak into the manor with ill intentions towards the prince, who would believe it?
Upon hearing this, Mo Yuanhao was slightly taken aback and looked up at Ting Feng.
"What did you say?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, the guards discovered a woman unconscious next to a dog hole outside the manor during patrol. Upon investigation, they recognized her as Miss Su from the Grand Commandant Mansion. Her identity is special, so the guards didn’t dare to handle it lightly and came to seek instructions from you."
"Su Qianxue?"
"Yes."
Mo Yuanhao furrowed his brows. Why was this woman outside the dog hole of his manor?
It sounded as if she wanted to sneak in through the dog hole.
Could it be that she still had feelings for him?
But at the winter feast last time, it didn’t seem that way.
"Send someone to the Grand Commandant Mansion to inform them and have them come to take her away."
"Yes."
Misfortunes never come singly.
Grand Commandant Mansion.
Su Jian was beaten severely, bloodied all over, and carried into the mansion. Before the doctor could leave, news arrived that Su Qianxue had fainted outside Prince Qi Mansion.
In an instant, Madam Su felt dizzy, nearly fainting on the spot.
Her Xue’er, why was she so troublesome?
Just the previous night, she’d been knocked out, her clothes stripped off, and now she sneaked out of the mansion and went to Prince Qi Mansion, fainting outside.
This matter certainly won’t remain hidden. It will spread quickly.
Without thinking, Madam Su knew that by the following day, they would be the laughingstock in the teahouses of the streets.
Looking at the bloodied Su Jian before her, and considering the uncertainty surrounding Su Qianxue, Madam Su felt breathless.
She panted heavily for a moment, clutched her chest, and urgently instructed a servant.
"Quickly, send someone to bring the eldest young lady back. It’s freezing cold; what if she catches a cold?"
The servant set off in a carriage, hurrying through the night to bring Su Qianxue back.
Upon her return, her face was already turning blue from the cold, and her hands seemed like ice lumps. Madam Su, in tears and distressed, scolded her servant loudly, complaining that the earth dragon wasn’t warm enough.
In the middle of the night.
The task time ended.
Su Qianxue’s consciousness suddenly entered a chaotic space, and she heard the system’s cold voice in her ears.
[Beep beep, the task time is over, task not completed, please prepare to accept punishment, Host.]
Upon hearing this, Su Qianxue swiftly protested in dissatisfaction.
"What? There’s a punishment for not completing the task? Why didn’t you tell me before?"
"I don’t accept this, you cannot punish me. If you punish me, I won’t do any more tasks... ah ah ah."
Before she could finish her words, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down from above, shattering her consciousness into countless pieces. The pain made her scream uncontrollably.
Her entire consciousness almost dispersed from the strike.
The screams made Yun Wanqing furrow her brow tightly.
[Oh my god, what’s happening, there’s actually a punishment for not completing the task?]
[Just listening to Su Qianxue’s heart-wrenching screams tells you how painful it is. This system is really too cruel.]
[It’s completely an undeserved disaster, Su Qianxue is so pitiful!]
[No, I can’t sympathize with her. If she completed the task, it would have been our family that suffered...]
