Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: Provocation

Closed his eyes.

Su Muze had painfully severed all ties with Xiao Yu.

Su Zhongshi stared at Su Muze, his face grim with a humph, acknowledging that getting Su Muze to state his separation from Xiao Yu was already difficult enough, thus Su Zhongshi said no more.

The room suddenly fell into silence.

Nobody spoke.

The physician brought over Su Muze’s medicine, for both external application and oral consumption, and once again checked Su Muze’s injuries, who after having had some food, seemed to regain a bit of strength, and even some color returned to his pale face. After the check-up, the physician announced that Su Muze’s health was no longer in serious danger.

Only requiring to take his medicine and to rest for a while would heal the wounds on his body. Mrs. Shen took over Su Muze’s medicine, giving thanks repeatedly.

In the midst of talking, Wang Meng had already gone to pay for Su Muze’s medical expenses.

Su Ningxiu suggested, "Father, Mother, with the injuries elder brother has, it’s inconvenient for him to travel back. How about this! We should find a horse carriage in town to take elder brother home."

"Ningxiu, don’t we have our own horse carriage? Just wait, I’ll bring our carriage right over and I can take elder brother myself, why bother finding another?" Wang Meng’s carriage was parked at the Wangji Rice Shop, not far from this place. To bring the carriage over was not troublesome and very convenient.

After considering it, Su Ningxiu agreed, saying, "Husband, I’ll have to trouble you with this then." Wang Meng left to fetch the carriage.

Su Yunjin and the others waited at the pharmacy for Wang Meng to return.

Su Muze felt guilty.

He lay there, silent.

His mind was in a haze as he thought about the recent events, Su Muze felt like he had been living in a dream. Xiao Yu seemed like a traceless dream.

Looking at her elder brother Su Muze like this, Su Yunjin sensed that perhaps he still harbored some lingering feelings for Xiao Yu. She hadn’t realised her foolish elder brother was actually so deeply affectionate.

Despite how Xiao Yu had deceived her elder brother, he still held a place for Xiao Yu in his heart. The complexity of love is truly indescribable; once you fall in, it’s hard to get back out.

Su Yunjin couldn’t help but glance at Gu Ya beside her, just as Gu Ya was looking at her too. The husband and wife exchanged a look, full of warmth in Gu Ya’s eyes, this made Su Yunjin feel grounded and safe. Simultaneously, Gu Ya’s large hand grasped Su Yunjin’s smaller one.

A warmth enveloped her.

Su Yunjin intended to pull her hand back, but Gu Ya held it even tighter. He did the same earlier on the street, and now again! Su Yunjin struggled to pull her hand free, visibly annoyed but inwardly she felt sweet. The small interactions between the young couple went unnoticed by the others in the room, as Mrs. Shen was still preoccupied with the gambling house issue that Su Muze had got into.

She asked with concern, "Zhezhe, will those people from the gambling house still come to our home to trouble you?" Mrs. Shen was a simple and honest farmer, never having had to deal with the ruffians and hoodlums of gambling dens.

Now, thinking of the day those ruffians came to the Su Family, Mrs. Shen was still filled with fear. Su Ningxiu was also concerned about the issue, stepping forward to ask, "Elder brother, how did you get involved with those from the gambling house? They said you owed them silver, how much exactly do you owe?"

Su Ningxiu couldn’t understand how her normally honest and simple elder brother could get involved with those from the gambling house.

Speaking of the matter.

Su Muze’s face instantly stiffened.

After hesitating for a while.

Su Muze spoke up.

"Mother, Xiuxiu, I did not provoke those people from the gambling house."
