The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!-Chapter 969 - 967: The Careful Su Hao

Chapter 969: Chapter 967: The Careful Su Hao

Xiao Yu had Xiao Si hand the account book to Su Yingxue, causing her eyes to bulge, “Millions of taels of silver…”

Could she afford to pay that?

Pah!

It was enough to bankrupt her!

But even bankruptcy was not the end; Xiao Yu would certainly have more tricks up his sleeve!

Chu Yihan was about to go to war with Qi State, and there would be many needs along the way for military provisions and transportations that would require Xiao family’s assistance. Would Xiao Yu behave if he couldn’t be with Su Miaoyan?

As if that were possible!

The bastard had been scheming from the start!

Su Yingxue was disgusted with his actions, but on second thought, a smirk curled her lips, “Xiao Yu, as the head of the Xiao family, such a deep strategist, you’ve gone to great lengths to marry my sister. It shows, you are deeply in love! If you cherish our little girl that much, the Marquis’s Manor has nothing against it, except…”

“Except what?”

Xiao Yu’s hasty reply betrayed a hint of impatience.

By the time he realized Su Yingxue was probing, it was already a step too late.

His eyes slightly lowered, nevermind.

It was too late to take it back.

Su Yingxue, satisfied, curled her lip and walked up to him, placed a hand on his account book, and spoke with profound eyes, “Except, Su Miaoyan is a delicate girl, our Manor can pamper her, but if she feels aggrieved in the Xiao family and cries all the way home, Xiao Yu, wouldn’t you like to see what the Su family, which has produced generals for generations, looks like when they get angry?”

Quite the threat!

The Defender General has been a legacy passed down in the Su family for generations; after Su Qingzhi, Su Dingwei became the great general, and in the next generation, Su Hao also became an outstanding young general. With such a powerful backing as the Su family, Su Miaoyan would be well supported.

If he took Su Miaoyan back to the Xiao family and she ended up aggrieved, it would not bode well for him.

Xiao Yu curled his lip, “The Su family won’t have that chance.”

“Such confidence, Young Master Xiao.”

“Confidence is simply the reality.”

Su Yingxue chuckled and left.

Xiao Yu had made her a promise.

He would do everything in his power for Su Miaoyan, that young girl.

Even Xiao Si could see that.

He stood beside Xiao Yu, quite nervous, “Young master, you seemed too eager, revealing your hand.”

Xiao Yu wore a thick mask in the presence of anyone, indifferent and cold; even his confidant would not fully grasp his thoughts.

But this time, Xiao Yu was eager to show his bottom line in front of Su Yingxue.

In his heart, Xiao Yu regretted it, but the moment Su Miaoyan’s beaming smile surfaced in his mind, he was at peace, and even his tone softened, “She already knows, there’s no use in regretting it now.”

Hereafter, he would protect Su Miaoyan well, keeping her as adorable as she always was.

Always as brave and fearless as the first time she saw him, calling him “handsome brother,” innocent and naive.

——

Tomorrow was Su Hao and Wu Jinyan’s wedding day.

That night, Su Hao lay wide awake with excitement, so he decided to check his courtyard to make sure everything was in order.

From the large front door of the Manor, he checked up to the front hall—the place for the wedding ceremony—and back to the bridal chamber. He touched the bed, eyeing the red dates, longans, and Copper Coins on it, his handsome eyebrows tightening, “Do all these have to be laid out on the bed? Jinyan will be waiting in the bridal chamber for quite some time; sitting like this, it seems rather uncomfortable.”

Beside him, Shu Yan quoted cluelessly, “Young master, the wedding matron said these must not be removed; they’re old customs! They wish the young master and young madam to have offspring soon!”
