Su Dingwei, observing the situation, also spoke, “Madam is right. Although our Su family may not be as prestigious as Your Highness, we are not a small, easily bullied family. With Han’er seriously ill, having even a glimmer of hope for recovery is already a heavenly blessing. If Regional Prince insists on delaying her treatment, 1 will be the first to disagree!”
“Cousin is also the daughter of the Marquis’s Manor. Grandpa is on his way back from the border. If he learns of this, he won’t agree either. Regional Prince, you should think this through carefully.”
Su Yingxue declared with confidence.
If it weren’t for the fact that Su Han deeply loved Chu Xiaotian, the chaos he caused today at the Marquis’s Manor might have led to several punches from the Regional Prince!
Su Han looked at Su Yingxue gratefully. She leaned against her parents and felt much more at ease.
Chu Xiaotian had been silent all this while. The usually reserved him had his displeasure on his face.
Su Han had been married to him for a few years, and she knew filial piety was his top priority. Therefore, she had to tolerate it when Madam Sheng lectured her.
Wiping away her tears, Su Han spoke in a low voice, “Husband, it’s not that 1 don’t want to return and explain everything to Mother. It’s just that I want to wait until after the surgery, and I recover from my illness. Then, I’ll go back to the prince’s mansion with you and properly face Mother.”
Without hesitation, Chu Xiaotian retorted, “No! Come back with me now!”
He couldn’t wait, and he couldn’t tolerate it!
He knew Su Han had been wronged this time, but what he couldn’t accept was her resistance!
Since the day he met Su Han, she had been gentle and obedient. Even though her social status didn’t match him, he willingly married her despite family opposition.
After several years of marriage, he had no regrets because Su Han always acquiesced to his wishes.
He admired her grace and cherished her obedient nature.
But now, she was not heeding his words, not being filial to his mother, and openly challenging his authority!
Chu Xiaotian’s face was cold, and his eyes were resolute. “Su Han, if you don’t come back with me tonight, 1 will divorce you!”
Chu Xiaotian’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness, causing Su Han’s weakened body to tremble. “What did you say, husband?”
Su Han felt like she had fallen into an ice-cold abyss, and tears streamed down uncontrollably.
“Your Highness, think twice! You’re humiliating the Su family!” Su Dingwei clenched his fists tightly, and veins popped on his forehead.
Qin Wan covered her hands with a handkerchief. She was shocked and panicked.
Her instinctive reaction was that Su Han couldn’t be divorced, or she wouldn’t be able to live the rest of her life!
Saint Ruan saw Su Yingxue’s hand on the red jade whip and blinked his peach blossom eyes as if watching a good show. “You want to make a move? Do you need help? I can tell that Chu Xiaotian’s martial arts aren’t weak either. Why don’t I help you knock him out with poison first, then you can beat him up?”
Su Yingxue had the same intention in her heart!
Zhilan quickly grabbed Su Yingxue’s arm and whispered, “Miss, don’t listen to Mr. Ruan! Regional Prince’s status is noble, he can’t be beaten! Moreover, he is Miss Han’s husband. If you hit him, Miss Han won’t be able to live well in the Regional Prince’s Mansion. If she is divorced, Miss Han won’t be able to face anyone. Miss Han is not like you.”
Zhilan’s last sentence made Su Yingxue put down her hand.
Her heart sank. “Yeah, Cousin isn’t like me.”
Su Han didn’t have medical skills, so she didn’t have as many bargaining chips as Su Yingxue. She didn’t have the entire Marquis’s Manor to back her up. All she had now was Chu Xiaotian, her husband..
