Chapter 158 Why not help them?

Jun Moye stopped the servant who was trying to stop Li Xiao.

"Master Lin, my wife and your daughter, Lin Xiuzhi, were close friends. Today, we received your daughter's suicide letter and realized she was planning to commit suicide, so we hurried here. Master Lin, why don't you first confirm whether your daughter is still alive before you hold us accountable?"

Su Hanchu spoke as he followed Li Xiao into Lin Xiuzhi's yard.

"Master Lin, your daughter jumped into the river three days ago and I rescued her. You'd better go see her now, otherwise you will have no daughter."

Mr. Lin was shocked when he heard this. Could it be that Xiuzhi was really going to do something stupid?

I followed in panic for a moment.

At this time, in Lin Xiuzhi's room, Lin Xiuzhi had already stood on a stool when she heard the quarrel coming from outside the yard.

He gritted his teeth and hung the white silk around his neck.

Li Xiao kicked the door open.

"Bang…………"

Then I saw Lin Xiuzhi in a red wedding dress hanging on the white silk.

A quick and regretful voice sounded.

"Xiuzhi."

Then he jumped up.

As soon as Mr. Lin entered the yard, he saw Lin Xiuzhi being let down by Li Xiao, and he immediately felt panicked.

"Xiuzhi."

Such a big commotion alarmed everyone in the mansion.

Lin's mother also came. When she saw Lin Xiuzhi lying in Li Xiao's arms and the white silk hanging on the beam, she rushed over and burst into tears.

"Zhizhi, my Zhizhi, why are you so stupid?"

The entire Lin Mansion was in chaos.

There was a hint of worry in Su Hanchu's eyes. Could it be that Lin Xiuzhi didn't time it right?

I hurriedly squatted down and checked her pulse. Fortunately, there was still a pulse. It seemed that she had died.

Li Xiao couldn't help but grit his teeth, his lips were trembling, and two tears rolled down from his red eyes.

He reached out his trembling hand and touched Lin Xiuzhi's nose.

"Xiuzhi, don't be in trouble. I was wrong. I shouldn't have said such harsh words that day."

Mr. Lin was also looking at Lin Xiuzhi worriedly.

"How could I have such a stupid daughter?"

Su Hanchu pulled the person over and leaned him against his arms.

"Okay, stop crying. He's not dead yet, but if you delay any longer, he'll probably die."

Su Hanchu took out the spiritual spring water and gave Lin Xiuzhi a few sips.

Then he reached out and pinched her philtrum.

Soon, Lin Xiuzhi finally opened her eyes slowly amid everyone's worry and opened her mouth to speak, but she could only make hoarse and unpleasant sounds.

"Li..." He couldn't say the rest of the words.

Su Hanchu spoke hurriedly.

"Don't be so hasty to speak. You must have injured your throat. I'm afraid it will take some time to recover. You're lucky to be alive. Miss Lin, this is the second time I've saved you. If it happens again, you can die if you want."

Lin Xiuzhi looked guilty upon hearing this.

Li Xiao could no longer care about anything. He reached out and pulled Lin Xiuzhi over, holding her in his arms. The feeling of losing and regaining her made him experience great sorrow and joy.

"Xiuzhi, Xiuzhi, why are you so stupid? Why are you so stupid?"

Lin Xiuzhi shed tears, and there was no light in her eyes.

Li Xiao hugged her with heartache, tears still on his face.

"Xiuzhi, how could you commit suicide? You scared me to death, you know that? If you really died, what would I do in the future?"

Lin's mother also had tears on her face.

"Zhizhi, how could you leave your mother alone?"

Mr. Lin looked at Lin Xiuzhi with mixed feelings at this moment.

It was Su Hanchu who spoke up to remind him.

"Li Xiao, carry Xiuzhi to the bed first. The ground is cold."

After hearing this, Li Xiao hurriedly picked up Lin Xiuzhi, put her on the bed, and carefully tidied her clothes. Looking at the wedding dress that was obviously embroidered with double layers of dragons and phoenixes, Li Xiao felt that every stitch and thread on it was burning his whole body.

"Xiuzhi, I'm sorry..."

At this moment, a cry of surprise was heard.

"Oh, what happened? Why is everyone alarmed? Are they all here? Madam, why are you crying?"

Mrs. Lin wiped her tears hurriedly.

"Aunt Qiu, what are you doing here so late at night? Why don't you go back to your own yard and rest?"

Aunt Qiu spoke softly.

"Madam, I'm also concerned about the eldest daughter. There's all this commotion outside. I just heard that the eldest daughter committed suicide because of a man. Our Lin family is a well-off family after all. A young lady from the boudoir..."

Su Hanchu glanced at Li Xiao and Lin Xiuzhi. He really wanted to eat some melons, but unfortunately, he had to clean up the mess now. He looked at Master Lin helplessly.

"Master Lin, since your Lin family is a wealthy family, how could you tolerate a concubine discussing the affairs of a legitimate daughter? Since ancient times, concubines have been slaves and servants, able to be given away or bought and sold. Isn't it too unruly for her to discuss the affairs of her master without permission?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Lin looked at Aunt Qiu.

"Why don't you go back to your yard and rest? This matter has nothing to do with you. Don't let me hear a word from you again."

Although Aunt Qiu was unwilling, she had no choice but to retreat when she saw the gloomy look on Mr. Lin's face.

Only then did Su Hanchu speak to Master Lin again.

"Master Lin, it's late at night and the dew is heavy. Why don't you treat us to a cup of tea in the living room?"

Mr. Lin looked at the hands of Li Xiao and Lin Xiuzhi clasping together, and his expression grew even darker.

It was Mrs. Lin who spoke again.

"Everyone, thank you for saving Zhizhi today. Please come this way."

Then he reached out to pull Master Lin and complained in a low voice.

"I've told you long ago not to push Zhizhi. Now you've pushed her to the point of wanting to hang herself. What else do you want? Why don't you go to the living room to entertain the guests?"

Master Lin glanced at Li Xiao and the other two, flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly.

"Hmph..." Then he followed Mrs. Lin to the hall.

Soon, Butler Lin brought up some hot tea.

Su Hanchu looked at Mr. Lin with a gloomy face.

"Mr. Lin, I'm very sorry to bother you today. Three days ago, I saved Miss Lin from jumping into the river. That's how I got to know her. She was in a very bad mood at the time, so I comforted her for a long time. I also learned that she was unhappy with her marriage."

After all, Su Hanchu and his friends were guests, and they had saved his daughter twice in a row. In the end, Master Lin felt embarrassed to continue to have a sullen face, so he just spoke helplessly.

"Alas, I am his father, how could I harm her? What should I address you two distinguished guests?"

Jun Moye spoke from the side.

"Master Lin, my name is Jun Moye, and this is my wife, Jun Su."

Mrs. Lin hurriedly stood up, bowed and spoke.

"So it's Master Jun and Madam Jun. I'd like to thank you for saving my Zhizhi."

Su Hanchu hurriedly stood up and helped her up.

"Mrs. Lin, you're welcome. I believe anyone who encounters this kind of situation will save someone."

Then he helped Mrs. Lin sit down and looked at Mr. Lin.

"Master Lin, since Xiuzhi doesn't want to marry into the Ma family, she has been engaged to the Li family for many years. Why don't you help them get married?"
