Chapter 147 He Should Have Arrived (Part 2)
In the evening, just after Su Pei'er drank the pregnancy-preserving medicine, she heard a noise coming from outside the door.
She turned her head and saw a familiar figure, then she stood up and walked over to greet him.
"Han Lang, you finally came back - oh, what's wrong with your face?" Su Pei'er frowned, her expression full of worry.
Han Yao, who was fine when he left in the morning, now had half of his face swollen and blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he had been beaten.
Han Yao turned his head away, feeling ashamed, and refused to let her touch him.
"Nothing, I just got slapped by that old bastard Ye Heng."
Su Peier winked at the little maid: "Go get some ice and a handkerchief."
The little maid responded, quickly retreated and closed the door.
After confirming that there was no one else in the room, Su Peier sat down next to Han Yao and said distressedly, "Didn't Han Lang go to ask him for help? It would have been fine if he didn't want to help, but why did he resort to violence?"
Han Yao licked his lips and sneered: "He doesn't want to help, but I said he must help! As long as he can rescue his father, what does it matter if he gets hit like this?"
"Really?" Su Peier was surprised and happy, "He actually agreed?"
Han Yao snorted.
"Why do you think I came back so late?"
The Han family is now being watched, so it is inconvenient for him to go in and out. He took a lot of effort to get to the Ye family today, so of course he can't make a wasted trip.
"That old guy wanted to chase me away at first, but then I saw that Ye Jingyan and his brother were there, so I threatened him with what happened between him and his elder brother, and he got scared. After the brothers left, he came to talk to me again, and finally gave in."
A hint of coldness flashed across Han Yao's eyes: "He wants to stay out of it completely - dream on!"
Su Peier was stunned: "He and...his elder brother?"
Han Yao subconsciously replied: "Of course he was the one who backstabbed his elder brother—"
At this point, he finally realized that he had said too much, frowned and changed the subject.
"Anyway, I have the upper hand over him, so he must obey me!"
Su Pei'er still looked a little confused, as if she didn't quite understand, but she was a knowledgeable and tactful person, and knowing that Han Yao didn't want to continue talking, she didn't ask any more questions.
Knock knock.
The little maid came back and said, "Miss, everything is here."
Su Peier waved her hand and asked her to go down and prepare the meal. She then wrapped an ice cube in a handkerchief and carefully applied it to the red and swollen part of Han Yao's face, saying softly:
"Han Lang has great ambitions and is naturally prudent in his actions. Pei'er does not ask for anything else but hopes that Han Lang will be safe and sound."
Han Yao was stunned when he heard this and looked at the woman in front of him again.
Seeing her lowered brows and eyes, looking gentle and considerate, my heart was moved.
During this period of time, he had seen a lot of human fickleness, and the one who stayed with him in the end was Su Pei'er, whom he had despised the most in the beginning.
He was moved, and his previous anger and resentment towards Su Peier completely dissipated. He held her hand and vowed:
"Pei'er, you are still the best to me! Don't worry, when these things are settled, I will definitely marry you in a grand sedan chair!"
Su Peier smiled and said, "As long as I can be with Han Lang, everything is fine."
As she spoke, she pulled her hand away calmly and gently advised, "After a busy day, Han Lang should have a meal first. Since that Lord Ye agreed to help, I believe Lord Han will be able to return safely soon."
…
"Dad, are you really going to help the Han family?" Ye Shixian waited outside for a long time. Finally, she saw Han Yao leave and immediately went into the study. "He is in danger now. Aren't you asking for trouble?"
Ye Heng sat there with a gloomy face.
"I have my own plans for this matter, you don't have to worry about it."
Ye Shixian tightened her handkerchief, thinking of Han Yao's smug look when he left just now, and felt very uneasy.
She looked around and asked hesitantly, "Dad, did he threaten you?"
Ye Heng got furious when this matter was mentioned.
At the beginning, he did those things very secretly, and only a few people knew about it. He didn't expect that Han Tong, such a shameless man, would reveal it to his own son, and now he is directly using it to blackmail him!
"Just keep him stable first, and then... there are plenty of ways to deal with him!"
Hearing him say this, Ye Shixian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Their current situation is troublesome enough, and they dare not even think about a crazy Han Yao coming along.
However, when thinking about the scene during the day, Ye Shixian still felt unwilling.
"This Han Yao really knows how to pick the time. He didn't come earlier or later, but chose to come when Ye Jingyan and the others came! If it weren't for this, you wouldn't have handed over those things so easily!"
So many properties and shops were taken away in an instant. Who wouldn't feel sad?
However, Ye Heng showed a strange and cold smile on his face.
"They think that if they take all these things back, everything will be fine. There is no such good thing in the world!"
Ye Shixian was stunned: "Dad, what you mean is..."
"Don't worry about them. They will cause trouble in the future."
From the moment Ye Chutang asked him for it, he had already started preparing, and now it is basically done, there is nothing to worry about.
What is more important now is the Han family... He has already promised Han Yao that he will help, so it won't be delayed for too long.
After all, no one knows when Han Yao will go crazy and choose to fight to the death.
Ye Heng thought for a while and looked up at Ye Shixian.
"By the way, Xian'er, have you contacted Murong Ye in the past few days?"
…
Early the next morning, Ye Chutang sent Xiaowu to the Princess's Mansion. He did not stay long and personally drove the carriage to the outskirts of the city.
The heat of August is at its peak. It is already very hot and humid at only 9 o'clock in the morning.
When Ye Chutang arrived at the foot of the mountains, his forehead was already covered with a layer of fine sweat.
She stopped and looked up.
There are many mountains and ridges, with dense green shades, and occasionally a bird flies up and down from the forest.
Even before going up the mountain, you can already feel the rare peace and tranquility.
Ye Chutang parked the carriage at the foot of the mountain, lifted her skirt and walked up the stairs.
…
The woods between the mountains were shady and the breeze was cool, which made the weather quite a bit cooler.
Ye Chutang walked up while looking at the scenery around him.
There is a very famous temple on Wulan Mountain. It is usually very popular. But today, perhaps because it was too hot and it was not the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month, Ye Chutang did not run into many people along the way.
On the mountain road, there are layers of stone steps and lush shrubs on both sides.
Ye Chutang walked slowly and steadily. Occasionally, white mountain mist floated by, but soon disappeared in the crisp sound of birdsong.
Time passed, and after about an hour, Ye Chutang's eyelids twitched slightly.
She stood still and looked forward.
——From here, I finally entered the scenery that appeared in my dream.
The originally blurry dream scene overlapped with everything in front of me, gradually being rendered in bright colors.
Ye Chutang cast his gaze in a certain direction halfway up the mountain.
Chen Yanchuan, should have arrived?
