Moreover, she could tell from Su Ilan’s eyes that she loved this man.
Su Han, with tears in her eyes, bit her lip and said, “Fine, I’ll go back with you. But, husband, after Mother takes the medicine, 1 must immediately come back for the surgery. The gnawing pain is truly unbearable.”
Su Han clutched her stomach. She felt excruciating pain with every passing moment of standing.
But for Chu Xiaotian, she had to endure it.
“Okay.”
Chu Xiaotian agreed, holding Su Han’s hand and making a solemn promise, “As long as you apologize to Mother, let her take the medicine and rest, I will personally accompany you for the surgery. Don’t worry, even if there are consequences after the surgery, I will never mistreat you in the future.”
“Thank you, husband.”
In his words, Su Han felt that enduring a bit more grievance was nothing.
Beside her, no matter how indignant Su Yingxue was, she couldn’t say anything.
However, Qin Wan was even more worried. She held Su Yingxue’s arm. “Yingxue, it’s late. I’m afraid Han’er will endure unbearable pain on the way. You’re a doctor. Auntie is pleading with you to go with her.”
In Qin Wan’s eyes, there was an overflow of emotions, the deep love of a mother for her daughter evident in her tearful gaze.
Su Dingwei, a tough man accustomed to warfare, softened his tone at this moment and joined in, “Yingxue, I’m also entrusting you to accompany Han’er and bring her back for the surgery.”
Su Yingxue pursed her lips. “Alright, I’ll accompany Cousin.”
She looked at her tall brother-in-law and said solemnly, “Brother-in-law, I’ll accompany my sister.”
Chu Xiaotian was extremely unwilling!
If it were anyone else, he would certainly refuse!
However, Su Yingxue’s identity was unique. She was entrusted by Su Han’s parents and was also valued by his Ninth Imperial Uncle. If he rejected her, his Ninth Imperial Uncle would give him a hard time in the Five Cities Military Department, which would affect his career and future.
He had to swallow his anger. “Fine.”
With a heavy heart, he led Su Han into the carriage along with Su Yingxue.
Before Su Yingxue left, she instructed Saint Ruan and Zhilan. “Prepare the things needed for the surgery. Once 1 bring my sister back, we’ll immediately get ready for the operation!”
Zhilan nodded.
Saint Ruan whistled coldly. “I doubt it. Let’s talk when you can bring her back!”
Given Su Han’s temperament, even with Su Yingxue around, she would likely have a few bones broken by the old witch and her daughter when she returned.
“Do you prepare it or not?”
Su Yingxue’s gaze, sharp as a knife, fell on Saint Ruan.
Saint Ruan waved his hand impatiently. “Alright, alright! I’ll prepare. Just go!”
Su Yingxue and Su Han returned to the prince’s mansion in Yong’an County.
She helped Su Han back to Madam Sheng’s courtyard. Before entering the room, they heard a commotion inside.
The steward was pacing anxiously outside the door, sweating profusely. Seeing Chu Xiaotian return, he greeted him like a savior. “Your Highness, you’re finally back. Madam’s wound is infected and suppurating, and she has caught a cold. She refuses to take her medicine now. The doctor says that if we delay any longer, Madam’s life will be in danger!”
Su Han’s heart sank. “Is it that serious?”
Although she detested Madam Sheng for favoring the Min Jia County Lord and causing her so much suffering, Madam Sheng was still Chu Xiaotian’s mother. If she died, Su Han would feel sorry for Chu Xiaotian.
“Sister, don’t worry. Have you ever seen someone in critical condition making such a loud noise?” Su Yingxue rolled her eyes while supporting Su Han..
