She promptly pushed Lin Sisi away and cautioned her, “Next time you do something wrong, don’t reveal your identity to others!”
Chu Yihan might appear out of nowhere!
Lin Sisi was still a little stunned. Suddenly, she felt a coldness that was like a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg.
She turned around and saw Chu Yihan and her legs trembled.
Remembering that Chu Yihan was Chu Xiuwen’s imperial uncle, she fled like a rabbit!
Only Su Yingxue was left standing alone under the moonlight.
She faced Chu Yihan alone.
As soon as Chu Yihan walked over, Su Yingxue obediently placed her hands in front of her chest.
Chu Yihan did not speak, but the cold air and pressure he was releasing grew heavier and heavier as time passed!
“Your Highness, if you…”
“If you intended harm to Chu Xiuwen, why didn’t you inform me?” Chu Yihan questioned sternly.
“What?” Su Yingxue was so surprised that her mind was filled with question marks.
“If you had let me assist you, I could have directly taken Chu Xiuwen’s life.”
Su Yingxue was rendered speechless.
This imperial uncle… Wasn’t that too ruthless?
“Your Highness, in truth, 1 didn’t want to harm him. 1 simply found him distasteful. Sisi also mentioned that one of her cousins was harmed by Chu Xiuwen! How loathsome is it for someone like him to lead such a dazzling life just because he’s a prince?” Su Yingxue gritted her teeth, her face radiating hatred!
She silently prayed, “Your Highness, please don’t see through my act!”
“Don’t see through it!”
“I intentionally harmed Chu Xiuwen!”
“But I can’t tell you!”
“Never mind, don’t harm yourself in the future.” Chu Yihan gently ruffled her hair, as if consoling a child.
Su Yingxue lifted her head and met his profound gaze.
His eyes resembled an abyss, dark and unfathomable, tinged with coldness and iciness.
Yet she couldn’t resist wanting to gaze at him a bit longer.
The more she looked, the more she desired.
Under the moonlight, the tenderness in his eyes was enchanting.
Su Yurou observed their interactions from a distance. She tore her handkerchief in frustration, suppressing her anger.
Why… What gave Su Yingxue the right?
She had stolen the limelight at this spring banquet!
She had captured Chu Chengye’s attention and ensnared his heart!
She even made Chu Yihan so partial to her!
What right did she have?
“Su Yingxue, just you wait!” Su Yurou clenched her teeth. She didn’t return to the manor that night and hurried straight to Liu Shulan’s place.
The next day, Su Yingxue resumed her medical consultations and headed to Tongchang Medical Center.
She had been absent for two days, and Manager Qi was tirelessly busy in the clinic.
Upon Su Yingxue’s return, Manager Qi presented a series of plans. He suggested that the clinic could be expanded to twice its size, admit more patients, open additional wards, and even establish a branch in the western part of the city to revive Tongchang Medical Center’s reputation.
Manager Qi was a capable and detail-oriented individual. Su Yingxue glanced at the plan he had formulated and readily approved it.
After Manager Qi explained further, he hesitated and said, “Miss, the idea is excellent, but in the long run, our income might become somewhat tight, especially since you allocated a substantial sum to Miss Wu for opening the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion.”
“What about the income from the grain and oil shop? Allocate it all for investment in the clinic. And! Sister Jinyan’s initial investment mustn’t fall short. Even if she doesn’t request it, check with her across the street. If she still needs money, you must not be stingy. You can only give her more, not less. Understand?” Su Yingxue urged..
