“Shen Jing!”
Su Yourong shrieked dramatically, then rushed forward and hugged Shen Jing tightly.
“Shen Jing, what’s wrong with you?”
“Don’t scare me!”
“Shen Jing, speak to me!”
Su Yourong’s voice was tearful as she called out, but her hand was pinching him hard.
This bastard!
He caused trouble the moment he arrived in the capital!
He’s trying to drag Yang Ran down with him!
Hearing Su Yourong’s loud cries, the few people in the melee suddenly stopped.
Yang Ran closed his eyes and haphazardly wiped the lime off his face with his sleeve.
When he opened his eyes and looked at Shen Jing, he saw that Shen Jing seemed to be on his last breath.
He wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a mouthful of fresh blood gushed out.
Seeing this, Yang Ran stood frozen on the spot, his mind buzzing.
He’s spitting blood!
He… he’s spitting blood!
What should I do?
This is the Su Family’s son-in-law!
Su Yourong finally got married, and now, if this bastard has any mishap, His Majesty will definitely not let him off!
“I’ll screw your mother!”
Fan Qinghu roared in anger, then kicked Yang Ran down and quickly rushed to Shen Jing: “Young Master Shen, Young Master Shen…”
Yang Ran lay on the ground, uncharacteristically not getting angry, but just looking frantically at the surrounding crowd, “This… this has nothing to do with me, you all saw it, this… this has nothing to do with me, he… he was cursed by Su Yourong…”
Yang Ran was completely flustered, unable to speak coherently.
I’ll screw your mother!
How could he be so unlucky!
Listening to Yang Ran’s words, the people around him immediately rolled their eyes.
Shen Jing was clearly sent flying by his punch, and now he’s saying it has nothing to do with him?
Alas…
One could say that Yang Ran was truly unlucky.
He clearly knew Su Yourong was a husband-killer, so why did he provoke this short-lived ghost?
Now look, this short-lived ghost is spitting blood.
If this short-lived ghost dies, even if he was cursed to death by Su Yourong, they’ll definitely blame it on him.
Killing Grand Tutor Su’s son-in-law!
Now, Yang Ran is definitely in for a world of trouble.
Du Heng also quickly rushed to Shen Jing’s side and shouted at Su Yourong and Fan Qinghu: “Get him to a doctor quickly!”
“Right, a doctor, get him to a doctor quickly!”
Fan Qinghu reacted and quickly picked up Shen Jing.
“Follow me!”
Su Yourong shouted and quickly climbed onto a horse.
In the blink of an eye, the few of them disappeared at the end of the street.
However, even after their figures vanished, Yang Ran, still lying on the ground, had not yet recovered his senses.
“Young Master Yang… this matter, this matter has nothing to do with us!”
A lackey looked at Yang Ran in a panic, quickly distancing himself.
“Young Master Yang, I have things to do at home, I’ll be leaving first…”
Another lackey also panicked and hastily excused himself.
With Su Yourong’s husband-killing fate, that Sunzi would most likely die!
If he dies, things will get serious.
As that person left, the others also scattered, with no one even bothering to help Yang Ran up.
Yang Ran struggled to regain his senses and tried to stand, but his legs were so weak that he failed to get up after several attempts.
Looking at Yang Ran in this state, the onlookers couldn’t help but shake their heads secretly.
After a long while, Yang Ran finally struggled to get up, then stumbled and ran back, his face a picture of panic.
…
“Young Master Shen, hold on!”
Fan Qinghu held Shen Jing, shouting incessantly.
“Alright, stop howling!”
Shen Jing opened his eyes and haphazardly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“You…”
Fan Qinghu looked at Shen Jing in astonishment, almost dropping him.
Du Heng leaned closer and said exasperatedly: “I knew it, you were faking it, damn it!”
“How did you know?”
Shen Jing was curious.
It doesn’t make sense!
He hadn’t told him about getting the blood pack!
“Do you think I’m stupid?”
Du Heng pouted, “Isn’t this the same principle as you telling me to crash into the Song Family’s ship?”
“Oh, you’ve grown a brain!”
Shen Jing grinned, “Not bad, not bad, keep it up!”
“No…”
Fan Qinghu looked at the two of them in confusion, “What… what exactly is going on?”
“Alright, don’t ask yet! Let’s go back to the manor first!”
Su Yourong turned her head to instruct the two, then looked at Shen Jing with amusement, “I knew it, the moment you arrived in the capital, you’d cause trouble!”
Shen Jing grinned: “You can’t blame me for this! That Sunzi insisted on walking into the muzzle.”
Hearing Su Yourong’s words, she couldn’t help but secretly pout.
He clearly deliberately provoked Yang Ran!
However, it was also Yang Ran’s own fault for having a loose tongue!
Soon, they returned to the Su Manor.
The Su Manor covered over eighty mu of land; after her and her mother left the capital, about a dozen servants were left behind, led by the steward Old Chen, to manage the affairs of the manor.
Su Yourong had Fan Qinghu carry Shen Jing into her room, then hurriedly instructed Old Chen to invite a doctor.
Since they were putting on a show, they naturally had to do it thoroughly.
Chi Chi rushed over, tears welling up, but then saw Shen Jing suddenly sit up.
This sudden change gave Chi Chi a huge fright.
“Alright, he’s faking it, don’t cry.”
Su Yourong glanced at Chi Chi, then quickly closed the door, and only then told Chi Chi the truth.
Understanding the reason, Chi Chi finally relaxed and patted her chest, saying: “Young Master, next time something like this happens, please tell this servant in advance, this servant was almost scared to death!”
“You silly girl, are you still hoping for a next time?!”
Su Yourong lightly patted Chi Chi, then turned to ask Shen Jing: “You certainly tricked Yang Ran, but have you thought about how to end this?”
This matter definitely couldn’t be dragged on indefinitely.
When it was time to end it, they had to end it.
Shen Jing slightly raised his eyes and asked with a smile: “How do you think it should end?”
Su Yourong thought for a moment and replied: “Although the Yang family has some grievances with us, it’s not a deep-seated hatred. Giving Yang Ran a profound lesson is enough, but there’s no need to blow things up too much and truly turn the Yang family and us into mortal enemies…”
It’s better to resolve enmity than to deepen it.
Although the Su Family had some status in the capital, they ultimately held no real power.
But the Marquis of Pingnan, Yang Zhongheng, was a truly powerful figure with real authority.
There was no need to turn the two families into irreconcilable enemies just because Yang Ran had a loose tongue.
Moreover, this matter was initiated by Shen Jing.
Those old foxes would mostly suspect that Shen Jing did it on purpose.
Know when to stop!
Don’t end up digging his own grave.
“Don’t worry, I’m not that stupid!”
A mischievous smile appeared on Shen Jing’s face, “Actually, I’m helping Yang Ran.”
He wasn’t worried about being suspected!
He was just trying to protect Su Yourong, couldn’t he have gotten carried away?
There were no lie detectors in ancient times, how he explained it was entirely up to him, wasn’t it?
However, this matter could indeed be used to create some leverage.
“What?”
Chi Chi looked at Shen Jing in astonishment, then complained helplessly: “Young Master, your sarcastic remarks are a bit too obvious…”
“Exactly!”
Su Yourong nodded in deep agreement.
Helping Yang Ran?
Yang Ran was probably thanking his ancestors for eighteen generations right now!
This fellow, he really was talking nonsense with a straight face!
“I really am helping him!”
Shen Jing shook his head and smiled, “I’m giving him a chance not to be my enemy!”
Hearing Shen Jing’s words, the two women were once again astonished.
However, looking at Shen Jing’s serious expression, it didn’t seem like he was joking with them…
