"Miss, it was Young Master Gu riding his horse, dragging the Marquis of Zhenyuan's son and several other纨绔 (sons of wealthy and powerful families) behind him, making them run in circles. They've been dragged until they're covered in blood!"
Su Wanwan gasped, her eyes narrowing slightly: "Did you say what the reason was?"
"It is said that the heir of the Marquis of Zhenyuan and his playboys spread rumors that the young lady had an affair with the Second Young Master Gu. They were caught red-handed, and the Second Young Master Gu, in a fit of anger, tied them up and dragged them around in the street."
Su Wanwan raised an eyebrow, "Didn't they say that the fourth young lady of the Zhenyuan Marquis's family was going to be engaged to Gu Ziyu?"
He Ying was completely bewildered: "I don't know."
Su Wanwan let out a sigh of relief, a helpless smile playing on her lips.
Evil people need other evil people to teach them a lesson.

Su Nan bowed without changing his expression: "Father-in-law and Mother-in-law, please accept my bow."
Madam Chen turned away, refusing to accept his bow, her words laced with sarcasm and disdain.
“Master Su, you have quite the grand entrance. You haven’t visited in twenty years. I dare not accept your bow.”
Zhou Hua smiled and smoothed things over: "It's good that you're here, no need for formalities... Wanwan, it's been a while since we last met, you've lost weight again?"
Su Wanwan smiled and agreed, then pulled Wanying out to join her in offering New Year's greetings and gifts.
Zhou Hua and Mrs. Chen smiled and gave each of them a large red envelope:
"New Year's money. This is for maternal grandfather, and this is for maternal grandmother. You can't refuse it."
