“You…”
Li Su stopped halfway through his question, realizing that at this moment he was not the Li Su the other knew, but a disguised figure—a stranger in their eyes.
Fortunately, at that moment no one dwelled on the fleeting oddity across his face.

"Accident, an accident."
A'Xuan’s lips couldn’t help but curve into a faint smile; he could well imagine how furious Miss Lei must be right now.
The matter of Yan Ruoxi being driven out reached Shuangyue, who then told Jiang Ning.
"Miss Yan was driven out?" Jiang Ning was astonished.
Shuangyue nodded. "The lord ordered that from now on, no unrelated person may enter the residence, so Miss Yan was expelled."
Chu Yunli drove Yan Ruoxi out, forbidding her from entering the residence…
No… it can’t be…
Yan Ruoxi clenched the corner of her clothes. The poison she had added was almost identical to one of the wound medicine’s ingredients, so it would not be detected. Besides, even if it were discovered, no one would know she was the one who had poisoned it.
Yan Ruoxi’s heart pounded, nearly bursting from her throat. She lifted her face and said, "Brother Chu, isn’t this the wound medicine?"
Chu Yunli began recuperating in his private residence. The poison had already been dispelled, and as long as his injuries healed, it would be no great problem.
But Jiang Ning kept a close watch, forbidding him from practicing swordplay or martial arts.
“No, I am the doctor and you are the patient—you must obey me.”
Wen Mingzhu, half pulling and half acting coquettish, led the Crown Prince away. At the doorway, she still remembered to remind Lord Wen: "Father, you must think carefully before acting!"
After she finished speaking, she took the Crown Prince by the arm and walked out. The Crown Prince’s mind was entirely occupied with how to tease Wen Mingzhu. "None of you need to see me off." He said.
"Your humble servant respectfully sends off Your Highness." Lord Wen, together with all members of the Wen family, knelt in the main hall to respectfully send off the Crown Prince.
"Wretched thing, you actually dared to snap your elder brother’s wrist? Do you even remember what your surname is?" Lord Wen was so angry he stomped his feet.
Wen Qingwan lowered her head so that no one could see her expression, and only a faint voice was heard: "Father, my surname is Wen."
"You still remember your surname is Wen? You show no respect for elders or hierarchy—do you want to be expelled from the Wen family genealogy?"
