Chapter 23
Chapter 23
The tied-up man at the side begged for mercy, “Marquis, Miss and I couldn’t help ourselves. We truly love each other, so please don’t blame Miss. If you want to blame someone, blame me!”
“Shut up! Bastard!” Su Dingheng did not hit Su Yingxue with the whip, but instead, it hit Liu Li.
He was originally just a guard in the residence, so he naturally did not dare to hide. His originally loose clothes were torn open with a whip, revealing the ambiguous marks on his body.
From time to time, he would steal a glance at Su Yingxue. His eyes were filled with affection as if the two of them had long had an affair.
The corners of Su Yingxue’s mouth curled up into a mocking arc. “Sister, you’re really thoughtful. Why did you have to come to have breakfast with me today and bump into my ‘adulterer’?”
“Sister, why must you do this? If you truly love each other, Daddy might agree to it, but you had an affair instead…” Su Yurou didn’t dare to say anything else, but she confirmed the accusation of adultery.
“I don’t need Father to agree with my relationship. Besides, I’ve never even seen this person that I’m having an affair with,” Su Yingxue said lazily.
However, Su Hao’s words were sonorous, “Father, did you hear that? My sister had never seen this person before, so how could she have an affair with him?”
“Miss, I don’t blame you for not admitting your feelings for me. I know that my status is low and I’m not worthy of you, but I’m sincere to you! Last night, you were lying in my arms and said that you would be with me for the rest of your life…” Liu Li’s eyes were red as if he was deeply in love with Su Yingxue.
“I’m sorry, this is the first time I’ve seen you today. I’m afraid you’ve remembered the wrong person that lay in your arms, right?” Su Yingxue walked to Liu Li’s side, took out a low-quality sachet from his arms, then held it up. “This kind of stitching technique is crude. Most of them are given to their customers by the women of the Qin Pavilion and Chu Pavilion.”
She lifted Liu Li’s chin with one hand. “Your eyes are sunken, and your face is pale. I can tell that you’ve been indulging in sex all year round and are plagued by illness. Even if I’m mentally retarded, I wouldn’t choose someone like you to have an affair, right?”
Liu Li immediately lowered his head guiltily.

Su Yingxue walked slowly to Su Dingheng and sighed. “Father, you actually believed such an ordinary scam?”
Su Dingheng’s facial muscles trembled. Every word Su Yingxue said made it clear to him that this was a scam!
But how was he going to hide his embarrassment?
He was angry about this matter and ran to her courtyard in a big fuss.
Was he supposed to apologize to his daughter as a father?
Su Dingheng chose not to believe Su Yingxue. He was stubborn. “Even so, you can’t prove your innocence! It’s a fact that you didn’t return last night! Even if it wasn’t Liu Li, it must also be something shameful! Otherwise, tell me, where did you go last night?”
“You…”
Su Yingxue really wanted to let her father have a taste of society’s beating.
If she could tell him, she would have told him that she slept on Chu Yihan’s bed last night.
“That’s right, sister. If you weren’t with Liu Li last night, who were you with? The night is long, and I’m worried that something will happen to you.” Su Yurou sobbed. Her eyes were red, and tears flowed out of them.
“This isn’t within my sister’s jurisdiction.” Su Yingxue’s face was cold, and her eyes were filled with mockery and arrogance.
“Then, as a father, can I do anything about it? Su Yingxue, if you don’t tell me today, I will treat it as you having an affair with this person and chase you all out of the Marquis’s Manor!” Su Dingheng slammed the table and roared.
“Father, don’t act rashly!”
Su Hao protected Su Yingxue. “Sister, don’t worry. With me here, I will definitely not let anyone hurt you.”
He was about to call Shu Yan, “Men, bring this person away for interrogation and see who instructed him!”
Su Yurou bit her lip fiercely. What if Su Hao found out something…
She immediately held onto Su Dingheng’s arm and pretended to plead for mercy. “Father, I beg you to let Sister off this time! Even if she had an affair with someone and lost her virginity, you cannot chase her out of the Marquis’s Manor!”
She looked weak, but her crying was not soft. It could be heard both inside and outside the courtyard.
Su Yingxue didn’t intend to say it, but Su Yurou was acting so seriously, so she said frankly, “Sister, you’re shouting so loudly because you want the Ninth Prince to hear that you’re accusing me?”
“The Ninth Prince?”
“The Ninth Prince?”
Su Yurou and Su Dingheng were both stunned.
Even Su Hao stared at her, “Sister, what does it have to do with the Ninth Prince? Could it be that last night…”
“That’s right, the Ninth Prince can testify for me. I didn’t have an affair with anyone last night.”
Su Yingxue’s gaze was calm, and it was as if there were thousands of stars in her eyes.
Su Hao pursed his lips, “Then I will go and invite His Highness for you now. He will definitely prove your innocence.”
“Wait! You… How could you be so shameless as to get close to the Ninth Prince? Don’t you have any shame!”
Su Dingheng’s face was burning red. When he thought of Chu Yihan, he was both respectful and afraid, especially when he saw Chu Yihan’s cold gaze. He did not even dare to look him in the eye!
“Sister, don’t speak nonsense. Your affair is a small matter, but if you disturb the Ninth Prince, you will implicate the entire Marquis’s Manor!” Su Yurou looked afraid on the surface, but she was already gnashing her teeth in her heart!
She didn’t believe it. She wouldn’t believe it no matter what!
How could Su Yingxue be related to the Ninth Prince?
Even if the Ninth Prince had given her ginseng for the sake of that old man, the Ninth Prince was so elegant, good-looking, and had a noble status. How could he take a fancy to an idiot with a bad reputation?
“I don’t know if I will implicate the Marquis’s Manor, but those who want to frame me will definitely not have a good ending!” Su Yingxue’s gaze was as sharp as a knife.
If these people wanted to smear her innocence, they had to see if she had the attributes of a pushover!
She saw through Su Yurou’s jealousy and Su Dingheng’s fear and threatened, “Father, if you don’t believe me, you can ask my brother to invite the Ninth Prince for me. You can ask the Ninth Prince to see if I had an affair with someone last night.”
“Stop! Stop! You unfilial daughter… What were you doing in the Ninth Prince’s mansion?” Su Dingheng quickly stopped her.
This great Buddha was not easy to invite. There was a danger of him being reduced to ashes!
“Of course, it was to diagnose a disease. His Highness has been fighting for many years and is plagued by old illnesses.” Su Yingxue stated the facts.
She also hid a part of Chu Yihan’s shameless actions.
“Sister, when did you learn medical skills, and when did you catch the Ninth Prince’s attention?” Su Yurou bit her lips, and the jealousy in her heart was about to burst out.
“Sister, since you have so many questions, I better invite the Ninth Prince.”
Su Yingxue had an indifferent expression.
Su Dingheng was so frightened that he could not speak properly. “Come back! What do you mean by inviting the Ninth Prince? Since you went there for a diagnosis, you could have just said it!”
In the end, he was afraid of the might of the heavens. Su Dingheng had no choice but to grit his teeth and believe in Su Yingxue.
“Father believes me now? Then how should we deal with Liu Li?” Su Yingxue raised her eyebrows and wanted to watch a good show.
