After her biological father achieved great merit, he changed his heart and decided to abandon her and her mother. He said, "I am the ever-victorious Marquis of Anping. You and your mother shoul...
Chapter 159 Who Believes in Her
Until Su Changsheng and Su Yu'e also arrived.
Qin Jin'an looked at Su Yu'e and Su Changsheng and weakly greeted them.
"Second Uncle, Aunt, you've come to see me..."
Her voice was soft and she looked very weak, but her cheeks were flushed, and she seemed to be in good health, yet she kept saying she was cold.
Even the doctor shook his head and said that his medical skills were not good enough.
"Su Dai, have you been feeling alright these past few days? Your second uncle thinks you look much better."
Su Changsheng smiled gently and said, "Regardless of whether she's healthy or not, as long as she says it's okay, that's all that matters."
Su Yu'e chimed in, "Yes, she looks much better."
"Really? But I still feel very cold, sometimes cold and sometimes hot."
Qin Jin'an looked at the two of them naively, knowing they were both lying through their teeth, exaggerating the severity of the lies.
"It takes time to recover. Your second and third uncles will work hard to earn money. Your second uncle is going on a long trip in the next few days. There are some very good tonics there. Your second uncle will bring them back to help you recover. What do you say?"
Su Changsheng looked at Qin Jin'an with a smile.
He was trying to elicit information, testing whether his trip would go smoothly.
I didn’t dare ask directly, for fear that it would anger Qin Jin’an.
Qin Jin'an lowered his eyes and said softly, "It's good that Second Uncle is back. Thank you for your concern."
I am definitely alive, but there is a big difference between walking back and lying down.
Su Changsheng saw Qin Jin'an lower her head and couldn't see her expression, but her tone was normal and sounded fine. She also thanked him for his concern, which meant that he had returned safely.
Su Changsheng was relieved and smiled, "Then you should rest well. I won't disturb you. If you feel bored, you can raise a few more cats or something. You can raise whatever you want."
Qin Jin'an nodded.
Su Yu'e also spoke up: "Then I won't disturb your rest. I'll come to see you again next time."
Su Yu'e quickly followed Su Changsheng away.
The brother and sister both breathed a sigh of relief.
Although things have changed, the outcome is still good.
Su Changsheng felt that this trip would go smoothly, so he felt much more relaxed.
By the time he returns from this trip, any remaining estrangement between Su Changshui and him should have disappeared.
Su Yu'e was also at ease. As long as her two brothers did their jobs without arguing, the family could continue to work together.
After they left, Qin Jin'an went to sleep peacefully.
In a hazy state, she felt a few pleasant sensations emanating from her body, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.
Who has come to believe in her?
She had no time to think further and drifted into a sweet dream.
——
Jiang Xun's plan went smoothly. He disappeared for several days, and Xiao Yuebai always had a dark expression on his face during those days.
The Chu family was unaware of the situation, and upon learning that Jiang Xun had returned to the capital, they became quite gloomy.
The maids in the mansion were all very careful.
When Xiao Caidie learned that Jiang Xun had returned, she became even more dejected, eating in a daze, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing.
So when the letter arrived, Chunyi's heart pounded wildly. When she opened the envelope, she found the contents of the letter to be unremarkable. Xiao Caidie would be unhappy to read such a letter, but it would not be enough to provoke her.
So she gritted her teeth, picked up her pen, and began to write.
After she finished writing and resealed it, she quietly delivered it to Xiao Caidie.
"Miss, Young Master Jiang has sent another letter..."
Springtime evokes feelings of sorrow, worry, and anxiety.
"Give it to me."
Xiao Caidie was already emotionally devastated. When she heard Jiang Xun's name, her face showed hatred. He must have secretly seen her, which is why he was so frightened that he ran away.
What will he say this time?
It's nothing but insults and disdain, but so what? As long as she doesn't agree to annul the engagement, he can forget about getting rid of her!
Chunyi carefully handed over the letter, which Xiao Caidie accepted.
Chunyi glanced at Xiao Caidie out of the corner of her eye to see what expression she was wearing. A slight smile appeared on her lips. Just thinking about Xiao Caidie's breakdown after reading the letter made her secretly happy. Let her break down, let her cry, let her be negative...
Unbeknownst to Chunyi, Xiao Yuebai and Jiang Xun were watching all of this from the highest pavilion in the mansion.
"Uncle, we should stop her now. We can't let Xiaodie read the letter and get hurt. It's already been confirmed that the letter only passed through this maid's hands. We should arrest this maid and interrogate her!"
Jiang Xun couldn't bear to let Xiao Caidie read the letter, so he spoke to Xiao Yuebai, hoping he could give the order.
This is the Xiao family's territory; he can't overstep his bounds.
Xiao Yuebai glanced at Jiang Xun and then said, "No rush. What if the letter hasn't been tampered with? If we act now and fail to catch them in the act, we'll alert them."
Jiang Xun was confused by his concern. They all cared about Xiao Caidie, but it's better to end it quickly than to suffer for a long time. When it's time to be ruthless, you have to be ruthless.
Jiang Xun clenched his fists. He understood the logic, but...
He looked at Xiao Caidie's figure; she had gained a lot of weight, but she was still herself.
Xiao Caidie took the letter and seemed to have made a lot of mental preparations. She was just about to open the letter to check it when she went crazy, crying and laughing at the same time.
"Don't even think about getting rid of me, don't even think about it!"
Xiao Caidie spoke fiercely, and although she was saying harsh words, she still felt extremely painful, her eyes feeling as if they had been soaked in salt water.
She smashed everything in sight, cried, and was suffocated by the pain.
She guessed that he must have secretly looked at her, but knowing it still hurt her a lot. Why did he have to look at her secretly? If she dressed up nicely, maybe he wouldn't hate her so much?
He was terrified and ran away. He cursed her with the most vicious words and told her to be self-aware and not ruin the relationship between the two families.
Xiao Caidie was in excruciating pain. Just as her mind was in a complete fog, a powerful shout rang in her ears.
"Arrest this vile woman!"
When Xiao Yuebai and Jiang Xun saw Xiao Caidie lose control of her emotions, they could no longer sit still.
Xiao Yuebai knew better than anyone what was written on the letter. That might have disappointed his daughter, but it was certainly not enough to upset her so much. So what was added to the letter after it entered the mansion?
Xiao Yuebai strode over with his servants, and before he even arrived, he ordered Chunyi to be captured.
Jiang Xun looked at Xiao Caidie and explained, "Xiaodie, the letter you saw wasn't written by me. Don't be sad or upset, that wasn't my intention!"
"Ah—get out, get out..."
Xiao Caidie panicked the moment she saw Jiang Xun. She pulled her clothes over her face and shouted in a trembling voice for Jiang Xun to leave.
Her mind went blank, forgetting her sadness and pain; in that instant, she simply didn't want Jiang Xun to see her like this.
Jiang Xun stepped forward, and Xiao Caidie curled up in a ball, trembling.
"Ah Xun, go to the main hall first and let your uncle explain."
Xiao Yuebai sighed and said helplessly to Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun looked at Xiao Caidie, nodded, turned around and took a few steps, then turned back to Xiao Caidie and said, "Xiaodie, I'm going out first."
