Chapter 258 The Regent's Beloved 2
Su Li ignored her and thought she was just barking like a dog. A concubine's daughter really thought she was an important person!
Su Wan'er didn't get a response for a long time and felt deeply embarrassed. She almost couldn't maintain the professional smile on her face. She tightened her hands in her sleeves, narrowed her eyes slightly, and a silver needle as thin as a hair shot out silently from between her fingers and flew straight towards Su Li.
Su Wan'er curled the corners of her lips slightly. Anyone who dared to go against her would have to bear the consequences of angering her.
Su Li's spiritual sense was so powerful that even though Su Wan'er's actions were very secretive, she still discovered them in the first place.
Her spiritual consciousness moved slightly, and the silver needle coming towards her changed direction as if it encountered some resistance, and flew towards its owner at a rapid speed.
Su Wan'er was very confident in her abilities and could already imagine the scene of Su Li vomiting blood.
She looked at Su Li with contempt, and just as a smile appeared on her lips, it suddenly froze, and then a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
How could that be?
Su Wan'er covered her heart and looked at Su Li with wide eyes in disbelief.
Su Li met her gaze, raised his lips and smiled provocatively.
Yes, I did it, okay?
Is it surprising? Is it exciting?
Su Wan'er was filled with shock and fear. She was a master of flying needles and had never failed. Many targets had died in her hands because of her superb flying needles.
She didn't expect that this time she would fail on an ancient woman whom she had always looked down upon!
The noble ladies were all shocked to see Su Wan'er suddenly bleed from the corner of her mouth.
Huang Yunnian reacted the fastest. She rushed to Su Wan'er's side with a yell: "Oh my God, Wan'er, what's wrong with you? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Could it be some unspeakable illness? Vomiting blood out of nowhere is too scary!
The other ladies reacted and gathered around, asking about the situation.
Su Li folded his arms and watched the show from the side!
Huang Yunnian took a handkerchief and wanted to wipe the blood from the corner of Su Wan'er's mouth, but was pushed away by Su Wan'er.
A barely perceptible gloom flashed across Huang Yunnian's eyes, but soon a look of concern appeared on his face. "Wan'er, where are you injured? Are you vomiting blood because of Su Li's anger?"
Huang Yunnian was secretly proud of her own cleverness. Regardless of whether Su Wan'er had a hidden illness or not, she helped her find an excuse. Su Wan'er should at least thank her!
All the noble ladies who were concerned about Su Wan'er were stunned when they heard this.
Their eyes became complicated when they looked at Huang Yunnian. He was indeed the number one flatterer in the capital. Look at his brain, it worked faster than theirs!
Although this excuse is not very good, it can be regarded as a way for Su Wan'er to vomit blood for no reason.
Otherwise, by tomorrow, the whole capital will be filled with rumors that Su Wan'er has a hidden illness.
It's just a pity for Su Li, who for no reason was given the reputation of making his elder sister so angry that she vomited blood. For a moment, everyone looked at Su Li with a little softer eyes!
Su Li sneered, "Miss Huang is indeed my sister's lackey. She even speaks and acts just like my sister. She wants to convict me without any evidence and without any reason!"
"Look, I didn't do anything, but I'm already being blamed for making Shujie so angry that she's vomiting blood. I really am..."
The noble ladies present were so thoughtful that even if the other party only said something cryptic, they would start a conspiracy and create a big drama. What's more, Su Li's words were not cryptic at all.
Everyone immediately thought of various scenarios in their minds, such as the eldest concubine's daughter suppressing the legitimate daughter after gaining power, and how she schemed to ruin the legitimate daughter's reputation...
It seems that Su Wan'er is not as aloof, aloof and sensible as she usually appears!
Su Wan'er was extremely sensitive to other people's gazes. Although the noble ladies looked at her in subtle ways, they still did not escape her eyes.
Su Wan'er was furious. She looked at Su Li deeply. It seemed that something was different about her adopted sister today!
Did she underestimate Su Li? Or had Su Li been too secretive before? Or... had he changed?
Su Wan'er's eyes became a little more dangerous.
Humph, no matter which one it was, she wouldn't allow anything to escape her control.
Su Li noticed the murderous intent that flashed across Su Wan'er's eyes, but he was not moved at all, and even secretly released a trace of pressure towards her.
Su Wan'er's heart trembled and she spat out a mouthful of blood with a "puff" sound.
The noble ladies were so frightened that they quietly took a few steps back, moving further away from Su Wan'er.
Does anyone know if Miss Su is seriously ill? She's bleeding and vomiting blood out of nowhere. What if someone blames her?
This person is now the regent's favorite. If something happens later, who knows if he will be implicated innocently?
As the host of this banquet, Ye Qingcheng was so frightened that her face turned pale. If something happened to Su Wan'er in her general's mansion today, her whole family would probably be implicated!
Just when Ye Qingcheng was at a loss, Madam Ye rushed over with a group of servants and the court doctor.
It turned out that the nanny beside Ye Qingcheng saw that something was wrong and secretly sent a maid to inform Madam Ye.
Mrs. Ye was also frightened by the bright red blood at the corner of Su Wan'er's mouth.
Although her master was highly regarded by the Emperor, he did not dare to offend the Regent easily. If something happened to him in their mansion, the Regent would blame him and even the Emperor would not be able to protect the General's Mansion.
Madam Ye quickly ordered the servants around her: "Quick, quickly help Miss Su into the house and let the doctor see her!"
Several maids and old women hurried forward to help Su Wan'er to the guest room nearby.
A group of people followed him to the guest room. The few remaining ladies looked at each other, and finally their eyes stopped at Su Li, who looked as if it had nothing to do with him.
Su Li glared at him fiercely, "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beautiful woman?"
Ladies: Today, not only are your tongues sharper, but your skin is thicker too!
