“Understood!” Min Jia’s face bore a lingering bitterness.
In the end, she still had to apologize to Su Han, that despicable woman!
She refused to accept it!
She wouldn’t accept it, no matter what!
Madam Sheng’s face was also filled with unwillingness. How could she lower her head?
But then she thought, if Su Han remained resolute in cutting ties with them, and if the case continued to be investigated, she and Min Jia would be sentenced by Lord Liang Jin. They might not face death, but they would surely be exiled.
Compared to exile, enduring a moment of anger now and persuading Su Han to return was the wiser choice.
Once she returned to the Regional Prince’s Mansion and fell into their hands, they would teach Su Han a lesson!
With this in mind, Madam Sheng took a deep breath and, after Min Jia was carried out of the carriage, followed suit.
As soon as the two of them arrived, the crowd immediately made their way, with some recognizing their identities and pointing fingers at them.
Min Jia glanced at them with disdain and snapped, “Peasants, get lost! Stay away from me!”
From the beginning, the people’s impression of Min Jia wasn’t favorable.
Feeling frustrated, Min Jia arrived at the entrance of the manor. When she saw Su Yingxue, her whole body trembled involuntarily.
She was afraid of Su Yingxue’s brutality. This woman was too ruthless and showed no mercy.
Su Yingxue saw their approach and spoke loudly, “Madam Sheng, Min Jia County Lord, 1 heard you’re here today to apologize to my sister?”
Her voice was clear, and everyone at the entrance of the Marquis’s Manor could hear it.
Many nodded in agreement, saying, “I heard Miss Su Han was tormented by those two tiger-like old women!”
“Of course, they should apologize! In my opinion, they should kneel and apologize to Miss Su Han!”
“That’s right! Kneel and apologize! Kneel and apologize!”
The crowd’s cheers grew louder. Madam Sheng’s expression turned sour, and Min Jia turned around to shout, “What business is it of yours? You bunch of troublemakers. Shut up and stay out of my affairs!”
As a conferred county lord by the emperor, she was of noble status. When had these lowlifes earned the right to meddle in her affairs?
Su Yingxue observed Min Jia’s aggressive demeanor. “With the county lord’s attitude, not many will believe you’re here to apologize.”
“We came here for a family matter. Even if we want to apologize, the Marquis’s Manor should at least invite us in before we talk, right? Miss Su, you’re in charge here. Surely you understand this basic courtesy?”
Madam Sheng suppressed her anger and spoke politely to Su Yingxue.
Was Su Yingxue deliberately embarrassing her and her mother and dragging them down?
They were noble and influential figures in Jiang Du City. They couldn’t stoop as low as Su Han.
“If you’re going to apologize, do it openly and sincerely. Let everyone witness it. It should be done in a dignified manner. Don’t you agree, everyone?”
Every word Su Yingxue spoke was heard by everyone present. They all wanted to witness this scene.
“What do you mean, witness? Su Yingxue, you’re just trying to humiliate me and my mother!” Min Jia gritted her teeth.
“County Lord! Don’t judge others by your standards. Not everyone is like you,” Su Han said coldly.
Su Han, despite being injured and carried out, stood tall and elegant. She may not be a county lord, but she exuded more grace than Min Jia.
Hearing this, Min Jia couldn’t help but ask, “Su Han, are you trying to humiliate me? I…”
Madam Sheng quickly covered her mouth and whispered in her ear, “Bear with it for now. Otherwise, you’ll be exiled. You’ll suffer greatly! My child, endure it..”
