Upon entering the back room, Madam Sun tenderly touched Sun Si's face. "My darling, are you feeling better? The imperial physician said your injuries are severe and you shouldn't move. You'll likely need to rest here for a while. Fortunately, we have everything you need here. Your grandmother will stay with you. Don't be afraid. That scoundrel, your grandmother will definitely catch her and avenge you."
Sun Si's face was pale, and his makeup had been washed off. He looked even more ordinary now, not even a third as good as Sun Yun.
"Thank you, Grandmother. I wonder how things are going up ahead?" Even if it hurts to death, she needs to know if the plan has succeeded.
Madam Sun fell silent. Sun Jiao looked at everyone's faces and said disappointedly, "Did we fail?"
"Jiao'er, there's still a chance." Old Madam Sun patted her hand affectionately. "Your most important thing now is to recover from your injuries."
"The snake didn't bite the Crown Prince, it bit the Tenth Prince himself." Sun Ying succinctly explained the situation to Sun Jiao.
"Useless!" Sun Jiao choked on her words, unable to utter a sound. Her face flushed red, her blood rushed to her head, and she fainted.
The fourth prince quickly pinched her philtrum, and soon Sun Si slowly woke up, saying pitifully, "Husband, I've disappointed you."
"Don't talk nonsense. Your kindness is enough. I'm very touched. Actually, you could have let me do these things myself. You could have just stayed at home and waited for good news. I am your husband and someone you can rely on. I will do anything as long as you are happy."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Shu could only spit out a curse. What sweet talk! Only a stupid woman like Sun Si would believe it. The way Zhao Bi looked at Sun Yun just now was definitely lustful. He was thinking about Sun Yun's beauty on one hand, and possessing the power of the Sun family brought by Sun Jiao on the other.
Wei Tingsi lowered his head and asked Zhao Shu, "Do you understand?"
"Understood, let's go back." Looking at the sky through the crack, it was already late. There were still things to do, and after putting it off for so long, it was time to get them done.
Moreover, there is a hidden danger around my father!
Wei Tingsi's heart raced, and not only his face but also his neck turned red. Zhao Shu was thinking that Yong Wang should be alright and did not notice. When she did notice, Wei Tingsi had already made up his mind. He put his arm around her waist and leaped away from the bamboo building.
The two landed on a jacaranda tree. In the distance, they could hear young ladies talking. Wei Tingsi placed Zhao Shu on a branch and asked, "Shushu, you seem to dislike the Lin family girls very much. Why is that?"
He indirectly voiced his doubts.
