Upon hearing the mention of injuries, Liang Yun immediately pulled Xiao Xue over and examined her from head to toe. She breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Xiao Xue was unharmed.
After looking at Xiao Xueliang, Liang Yun pulled Su Xingran over to look at her. She saw that Su Xingran's skin near the corner of her mouth was bruised and swollen, and there was a trace of blood. When she took Su Xingran's hand, she also found that the knuckles of her hands when she clenched her fists were red and swollen.
"Xingran, how did you get hurt? Are you hurt anywhere else?" Liang Yun's face was full of worry and pity.
The fact that his daughter-in-law had no injuries at all shows how well Xingran protected her. Liang Yun truly liked Su Xingran; from the first moment he saw her, he knew she was a kind, upright, and honest person.
Huang Ma, who was heating up food in the kitchen, came out when she heard the commotion. Seeing the injured Su Xingran, she went over and took Su Xingran's hand. "Those damned things, they really had the heart to hit her."
Su Xingran felt both touched and somewhat amused. These injuries were nothing. When she was learning martial arts from Uncle Duan, he would always hold back when sparring with her. She felt this was unacceptable, so she asked Uncle Duan not to hold back, otherwise she wouldn't be able to improve.
As a result, Uncle Duan didn't hold back, and she ended up with bruises all over her body. Uncle Duan was even reprimanded by his master for this. Su Xingran thought it was nothing, since no one practices martial arts without suffering, and later, behind her master's back, she continued to beg Uncle Duan not to hold back.
"Aunt Gu, Aunt Huang, I'm fine. The wound next to my mouth will heal in a few days. As for the injury on my hand, it's a little embarrassing to say, but I got it from beating someone up."
Su Xingran felt a little embarrassed. She had punched someone, and while the other person had gotten punched, her own hands were now red and swollen, and she'd probably have bruises by tomorrow. And then there was the punch to her backâshe'd been punched on the train before, and it still hurt a little. She'd been punched again today, though this punch wasn't as hard as the one on the train.
"Alright, let the two kids eat first, it's so late now," Huang Zhenhua interrupted the conversation.
"Yes, Xingran, Xiaoxue, come and eat. Huang Ma cooked a lot of dishes, especially for you." Huang Ma said as she walked into the kitchen.
The Gu couple had just returned from the banquet; they had already eaten dinner and were now sitting in the living room waiting.
After finishing their meal, the group returned to the living room. Huang Taihe looked at Su Xingran and Xiao Xue. "Xingran, Xiao Xue, do you know Zhou Siyun?"
Su Xingran and Xiao Xue were both confused; they didn't know Zhou Siyun, whom Huang Taihe had mentioned. They didn't understand why Brother Taihe was asking such a question.
Gu Junru, Liang Yun, and Huang Zhenhua found Huang Taihe's question somewhat strange. All three knew Zhou Siyun, especially Gu Junru and Liang Yun, whose families frequently interacted with the Zhou family.
Su Xingran looked at Xiao Xue, who shook her head. Su Xingran shifted her gaze from Xiao Xue back to Huang Taihe, "Brother Taihe, Xiao Xue and I don't know the person you're talking about."
"What's wrong with Taihe? Why are you asking Xingran and Xiaoxue if they know the Zhou family's second granddaughter?" Huang Zhenhua asked Huang Taihe directly.
"Dad, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Xingran and Xiaoxue were followed tonight. Someone ordered them to be kidnapped. I asked those thugs, and they said that two women came to them and gave them money to kidnap people."
"A thug overheard that one of the two women was named Siyun. He said that Siyun acted like a spoiled young lady. I thought to myself, isn't that the same kind of name and demeanor as the second granddaughter of the Zhou family?"
