Chapter 214
"This, this..."
Having been married for many years, Zheng naturally understood Shen Jun's character and knew that he wouldn't say such things without reason.
But seeing Shen Rang's current state, Madam Zheng couldn't care less about anything else: "No matter what, you, as a father, can't be so cruel to your son!"
Shen Jun felt bad after hitting Chen Rang.
After all, he had truly poured all his heart and soul and resources into Shen Rang.
Seeing that Shen Jun remained silent, Madam Zheng sighed and said, "Send the young master back to Liuyun Garden."
Jing Yuan quickly stepped forward and helped Shen Rang away.
Once outside the ancestral hall courtyard, Jingyuan said in a low voice, "Your Highness, let me take you back to Jibai Residence."
“No,” Shen Rang gritted his teeth, “it will scare her.”
Jing Yuan sighed.
The Water Pavilion is damp and cold; Chen Rang probably can't withstand it... so he can only go to the Flowing Cloud Garden.
——
Liuyun Garden.
Upon hearing that Shen Rang had arrived, Yun Wan hadn't even had time to feel happy when she saw that Shen Rang was being helped in, and she was immediately shocked: "What happened?"
"...It's alright."
Shen Rang's gaze swept around the room, then he walked toward the chaise lounge placed by the window.
"Your Highness, the doctor will be here soon. Let me help you take off your clothes."
"I'll do it myself."
After dismissing Jing Yuan, Chen Rang raised his hand, his somewhat rough fingertips twisting the sash of his robe, as if he could still find traces of Yun Xi's presence on it.
Outside, Yun Wan lowered her voice and asked, "How did the young master get beaten up like this?"
Jing Yuan shook his head: "This subordinate does not know."
He truly did not know.
All he knew was that Shen Rang followed Shen Jun to the ancestral hall and was then beaten. As for what the father and son said, he truly had no idea.
Yun Wan sighed, a complex expression flashing in her eyes.
Shen Rang is the only son of the Marquis's family. For someone to beat him like this, something serious must have happened.
She needs to ask around.
But that's all for later. Right now, we should be concerned about Shen Rang first.
Thinking this, Yun Wan took a step towards Chen Rang.
The man was tall and handsome, his upper body bare, his shoulders and back broad and thick, with distinct grooves. Every inch of his muscles seemed to be meticulously sculpted, making Yun Wan's cheeks burn.
Although the two were husband and wife in name, this was the first time she had ever seen Shen Rang like this.
"Madam, the doctor has arrived."
Yun Wan then came to her senses and invited the doctor in.
——
Ji Baiju.
Yunxi waited and waited, the two bowls of mutton soup were heated up and cooled down several times, but Shen Rang did not return. She felt a little uneasy.
Jixiang advised her, "Auntie, what could possibly happen to the young master in his own home? Maybe the Marquis kept him here for tea and chess!"
Despite listening to her words, Yunxi still couldn't find peace of mind.
She had a nagging feeling that something bad had happened.
"Le'an, go and find out."
Although Le'an also felt that nothing serious would happen, she still turned and left after hearing what she said.
A short while later, Le'an rushed back, but her expression had changed: "Auntie, something really has happened!"
"I don't know what the Marquis said to the young master, but the Marquis took the young master to the ancestral hall, beat him up, and the young master has been sent to Liuyun Garden!"
Upon hearing this, Jixiang quickly said, "Auntie, let's go to Liuyun Garden and bring the young master back!"
