Before Xue Zixuan could even cry for help, a barrage of punches and kicks rained down on him.
At first, Xue Zixuan still had the strength to curse and insult the person who hit him, but later he could only keep begging for mercy.
After everything calmed down, Xue Zixuan finally managed to break free of the sack, stumbled to his feet, and tried to see who had hit him, but there was no one around.
In a small tavern in a corner of the city, Xing Yue was laughing heartily.
"This kind of person deserves to be taught a lesson; he should be given a good beating."
Su Ruojin, Su Muyao, Su Yiting, and Su Yuanchuan sat together.
Su Muyao was a little worried, "Sister, what if the Marquis of Xuanyi's mansion finds out that we did it?"
Before Su Ruojin could answer, Su Yiting interjected, "What are you afraid of? If things really escalate, do you think our General Su's Mansion would be afraid of the Marquis of Xuanyi's Mansion? It's all because Xue Zixuan disrespected Mu Yao first."
Su Ruojin also smiled and said, "Mu Yao, don't worry, it's so late, he won't be able to find out who did it."
Xing Yue nudged Mu Yao with her elbow, "Did you enjoy that kick just now?"
Su Muyao's face flushed slightly. She had never hit anyone or even argued with anyone since she was a child. Just now, under Xing Yue's encouragement, she still kicked Xue Zixuan with all her might.
Who told him to flirt with him?
But I have to say, that kick felt really good.
"Don't let Mother know about this," Su Yiting warned.
They all nodded.
In fact, Su Ruojin had a million ways to deal with someone like Xue Zixuan, but Mu Yao was too soft-hearted, so Su Ruojin decided to involve her so that she could be more assertive and protect herself in the future.
"Gentlemen, if there's anything fun like this in the future, would you like to invite me along?" A male voice rang out at that moment.
The group turned to look and saw Shen Yu walk in.
"You saw it?" Su Yuanchuan frowned slightly.
Shen Yu chuckled softly, "Just happened to be passing by."
“Princess Chang Le.” Shen Yu nodded to Su Ruojin in greeting.
Su Ruojin naturally knew that Shen Yu was Xiao Yanchu's good friend and considered one of his own, so it didn't matter if he saw him.
Because Shen Yu had helped her during the day, Xing Yue had a good impression of him and said generously, "Okay, I'll invite you to play together next time."
“Okay,” Shen Yu replied.
The group drank wine and ate snacks at the tavern, while Xue Zixuan groaned all the way back to the Xuanyi Marquis's residence.
When Madam Xue saw her son like this, she was heartbroken.
"Son, who beat you up like this?"
Xue Zixuan had no idea. He thought for a moment and immediately exclaimed, "It's Shen Yu, it must be Shen Yu. During the day, he... he was jealous that Mu Yao liked me, so he hit me."
Xue Zixuan dared not let his mother know what he had done during the day. He and the second young lady of the Su family were indeed not engaged. If he said this in broad daylight, even if the Su family came to his door demanding an explanation, he would be the one in the wrong.
Madam Xue was stunned for a moment; the young master Shen had hit Xuan'er.
this......
Although both the Marquis of Anguo and the Marquis of Xuanyi were marquises, their statuses were completely different.
Marquis Anguo and the Regent have always been on good terms, and now he has a say in the court. Unlike Marquis Xuanyi, who has no real power and might not have been able to keep his title if it weren't for his ancestors' protection.
Madam Xue also seized on the key point, "Did you see the second young lady of the Su family today?"
