Looking into Su Muxi's bright, fox-like eyes, Wei Yichen suddenly burst out laughing.
"Hehe! My cousin Xi'er really doesn't want to owe anyone anything!"
"What is my cousin saying? I don't understand." Su Muxi pretended to be stupid.
Since Wei Yichen liked to pretend, she would play along with him.
After Wei Yichen left, Su Muxi hurriedly called Mai Kun over, "Could you send someone to help me find out some information?"
McQueen nodded: "Of course, the Prince said that the Princess's words are his words!"
"Send someone to Jinzhou to inquire about the Su family's situation."
Upon hearing this, Su Xing couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Why is that?"
But then Su Muxi said, "Something must have happened to the Su family? At first, I just thought that Father wrote back and the Su family didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the two princes, so they didn't reply and no one came. But now it seems that they are too busy to take care of themselves."
“Father, think about it. Although the Su family and the Wei family have a good relationship, how did Wei Yichen see the letter you wrote to Grandpa? Would Grandpa have deliberately shown it to him?”
Su Xing shook his head.
Su Muxi continued, "So the Wei family must have planted someone by Grandpa's side. If something really happens to the Su family, then Wei Yichen will have a reason to want to marry me."
“You were originally supposed to be the next head of the Su family, but if something happens to Grandpa and there is no other direct descendant to inherit the position of head of the family, you will definitely be brought back.”
"At that time, it will be perfectly natural for Wei Yichen, as your son-in-law, to get involved in the Su family's business."
Su Xing had initially felt some self-reproach, but now he was drenched in a cold sweat.
Su Muxi thought for a moment and continued, "Father, sometimes being selfish is not a bad thing. At least you won't be easily swayed by others. Although Wei Yichen is Mother's nephew, the Wei family has never inquired about Mother's affairs over the years."
People who suddenly have a change of heart are extremely rare, so when Dad encounters such a person, there's no need to talk about conscience.
This is something she only recently came to understand.
Thinking back to the scene where the little beggar tricked her into going outside the city and was killed, Su Muxi still felt a dull ache in her heart.
But that's just how it is. Everyone looks out for themselves. Someone used the little beggar's mother as a threat, so the little beggar had no choice but to lie to her and go save her mother.
This is perfectly understandable.
Meanwhile, Wei Yichen, who left the Su family, had completely changed from his previous gentle and refined demeanor to one filled with coldness.
