Chapter 332: Chapter 340: Risking One’s Life
When the soldiers were assisting Su Wenyue out, Han Yu had already arrived in person, barely catching his breath, indicating he had hurried over. Seeing the deathly paleness of Su Wenyue’s face, he was startled. Han Yu didn’t immediately lash out at the two soldiers since he hadn’t clarified the situation. Instead, he quickly took Su Wenyue into his arms.
“What has happened here?” Han Yu demanded with a dark expression, his imposing aura causing the two soldiers to shiver involuntarily. He was a veritable god of death, his presence a clear sign that he was not someone they could afford to provoke.
“Madam was just kidnapped, and due to the overexcitement, she had an attack of heart disease. We were bringing her to the medical clinic to see a doctor.” The two soldiers hurriedly explained, indicating their innocence. However, Han Yu was not someone who would believe them so easily. Besides, what heart disease? Han Yu knew his daughter-in-law’s health better than anyone, and while she might be somewhat frail, she certainly was not suffering from any heart disease. There must be some trickery at play here. Seeing his daughter-in-law’s complexion suddenly improve a lot and feeling her pinch at his waist, he understood even more.
Performing a play required going all out—despite Han Yu’s arrival signifying her safety, Su Wenyue continued to act, not revealing any flaws. This was because Su Wenyue still had other concerns and did not want to expose herself just yet.
Although Han Yu saw through his daughter-in-law’s act, he still did not let his guard down. Whatever the case, seeing her covered in blood, the real paleness of her face, and a clear bloodstain on her neck, apparently from a blade, were all tangible things that made him grit his teeth in anger.
Especially when the two soldiers said his daughter-in-law had been kidnapped. Everything had been arranged perfectly before he left—Qi Luo was assigned, and people followed in secret, yet his daughter-in-law ended up looking like this. The wound on her neck… had the force been any greater, he didn’t dare imagine the consequences.
Rage surged in Han Yu’s heart. Qi Luo hadn’t shown up yet for some reason, and his people, although still present, had allowed his daughter-in-law to be injured. But now was not the time to investigate these matters. He would get to the bottom of it eventually.
Han Yu had no time to deal with the soldiers, handing them over to his men to watch, and immediately carrying Su Wenyue to the medical clinic. No matter what, he could only rest assured after having her seen by a doctor.
“Husband, don’t worry, I’m fine. I was just pretending earlier. We don’t really have to go to the medical clinic.” Su Wenyue said once they were out of the soldiers’ sight, urging Han Yu to put her down. Walking on the street with Han Yu carrying her, Su Wenyue felt her face turn red from the surrounding glances.
“Right, there’s also Father and Mother. I’ve been out for so long; they must be getting anxious. You should quickly send someone to check on them.” Su Wenyue suddenly remembered her Father-in-Law and Mother-in-Law, whom she had arranged to be at the cloth store. She had been unable to consider them in the emergency and now hurriedly mentioned them.
However, Han Yu did not let Su Wenyue down, still with a grim expression, he rebuked, “Keep quiet. I will take care of Father and Mother. First, I’ll take you to see the doctor. As for what happened today, you’ll explain everything in detail later. In what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself involved with by just stepping out of the door, I’ll not let anyone off the hook!”
