On the other side, the missing Su Li was finally brought back to the residence by Su Mo.
This time was different from the past. He had not slipped out of the residence to fool around. He had been hunted down by the White Lotus Society. Madam Tao was so anxious that she could not eat or sleep.
“Mother, Little Five is back.”
Accompanied by Su Mo’s calm voice, the disheveled Su Li appeared in front of Madam Tao.
Mdm Tao whimpered and pounced over to hug her youngest son. “Wuwu… Where did you go… You were so worried… I thought I would never see you again… Are you injured…”
Su Li had run out countless times since he was young. Every time he was caught and brought back to the residence, he would be beaten up. His mother did not spoil him.
It was rare for his mother to reveal her true feelings, so Su Li was extremely excited. He reached out to hug his mother back. “Mother…”
Madam Tao pushed him away in a second and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. She rejected uglily, “Alright, go wash up. You stink.” Su Li was speechless.
Although Su Li was a flippant, it was not easy for him to survive under the heavy punches of the Old Marquis, Su Yuan, and his brothers.
He had perfected his ability to escape. On the day he saved the Sixth Prince, he had clearly been ambushed by the White Lotus Society, but he escaped again.
The White Lotus Society chased after him for three days and three nights. They almost caught him a few times, but he managed to escape on all instances.
The White Lotus Society had never pursued someone so difficult.
Of course, there would always be a day when one’s energy would be exhausted. The White Lotus Society could rotate their expert every day, but he could not change a pair of legs every day.
Just as he was caught by the White Lotus Society’s net, Su MO appeared.
Su MO killed seven experts of the White Lotus Society alone, four of whom were shadow guards.
It was also at that moment that Su Li truly realized how terrifying his brother was.
It was not the martial arts… but the way his brother looked when he killed. He was a completely different person from his usual gentle and respectful self.
Big Brother’s expression was very calm, but his gaze…
It was neither hatred nor anger…
Su Li could not describe what it was exactly. In short, he was extremely afraid at that time.
He was afraid that her brother would walk over and gently break his neck.
Su Li sat in the bathtub and subconsciously touched his neck.
“Little Five! Are you done showering? You’re going to the Directorate!”
Third Brother Su Yu’s voice interrupted Su Li’s thoughts.
“It’s the Imperial Astronomer Center, right!” Second Brother Su Qi said.
“I’m talking about the Imperial Astronomer Center!”
“You clearly said the Directorate!” “Imperial Astronomer Center! ”
“The Directorate!”
Su Qi and Su Yu started pinching each other.
Su Li shook his head helplessly. Why were these two brothers better at bickering than him and Fourth Brother? No, he and Fourth Brother never fought.
“Little Five.”
Su Xuan knocked on the door. “Return the 200 taels of silver you owed me last time. 300 taels of silver with interest.”
Very good, he and Fourth Brother were going to end it.
An hour later, the men of the Su family appeared in Qin Canglan’s room.
Su Ergou, Dahu, Erhu, Xiaohu, and Wei Xiyue were also visiting.
Wei Xiyue was carrying a jar of meat floss and a jar of pine nuts as usual.
She came to the bed and looked at the three little ones lying by the bed and calling “Great-grandpa”, then at the injured Qin Canglan. She thought for a moment and placed the jar on the table.
She ran out and asked the maidservant for a jar of honey.
She returned to the bed and scooped a spoonful to feed Qin Canglan.
Qin Canglan, who was suddenly fed was dumbfounded.
Qin Canglan was clearly in a much better state today than yesterday. The Old Marquis could not help but be puzzled. You said that you were stabbed, but why are your old eyes still bright?
After the juniors finished visiting, they left first. The two big bosses in the capital had serious matters to discuss.
The Old Marquis said, “Tell me, what’s wrong with your injury? Did Guo Huan really do it?”
Qin Canglan said, “Cheng’er called me Dad.”
The Old Marquis suppressed his anger. “Let me be serious with you. Was it Guo Huan’s own idea to assassinate you, or was he instructed by Prime Minister
Guo? I want to know what role Prime Minister Guo played in it?”
Qin Canglan said, “Cheng’er called me Dad.”
The Old Marquis could not suppress it anymore. “Is the Guo family related to the White Lotus Society?”
Qin Canglan grinned. “Chenger called me Dad!”
The Old Marquis muttered, “Damn you, I want to slap you to death!”
After leaving the house, the Old Marquis called Su Cheng over and patted his shoulder. He said gently and kindly, “Cheng’er, Uncle can also be your father.” Su Cheng was dumbfounded.
Under the corridor, Su MO asked Su Xiaoxiao, “What happened to Wei Ting?
Granduncle is already awake, but he’s still not awake?”
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “Oh, he… has something on his mind and can’t sleep.
He asked me to give him a little calming incense.”
“He asked me… ” These three words were very demonic.
Su MO looked at his sister with a complicated expression. “Are you sure you only used a little?”
“Yes!” Su Xiaoxiao’s almond-shaped eyes widened as she said seriously.
A little from a big vat was still a little!
Wei Ting seemed to have entered a dormant state these few days, but it was not a problem for his body.
The three little ones couldn’t wake their lazy father up. They kicked off their shoes and climbed into bed. They took on the posture of dancing on the grave
and jumped on the bed, vowing to wake their father up.
They weren’t like this when Su Xiaoxiao was asleep.
There was a difference in their treatment of their parents.
It had rained a while ago, and many books in the library were wet. The disciples carried them out to dry.
Sikong Yun had more than one disciple, but so far, Su Xiaoxiao had only seen one. His name was Yu Feng.
Yu Feng carried too many books and couldn’t see the way clearly. He accidentally bumped into Su MO and the books fell on him and Su Xiaoxiao.
Su MO protected Su Xiaoxiao with both hands. The back of his hand was bruised.
“Sorry, sorry!”
Yu Feng hurriedly apologized.
“Are you alright?” Su MO asked Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “I’m fine.”
“It’s fine,” Su MO turned to Yu Feng and said.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su MO strangely. Why didn’t this person care if he himself was fine?
There were too many books, and Yu Feng was flustered picking them up alone. Su Xiaoxiao went to help. Su MO said, “I’ll do it.”
He helped Yu Feng pick up the book.
Yu Feng was extremely grateful. “Thank you, Young Master Su! Young Master
Su is a good person!”
Su MO said in a low voice, “I’m… not good.”
He was not a good person. Not in his bones.
He was only taught to do what an heir of the Marquis’s Estate should do.
“Young Master! ”
One of Su MO’s guards returned from investigating the news. He cupped his hands and bowed. “Guo Huan ran away.”
Su Xiaoxiao and Su MO were not surprised.
If the news of Qin Canglan waking up could reach the palace, it could naturally reach the Guo family.
Guo Huan would not wait for death.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I heard from Division Leader Chen last time that the Sect Master of the White Lotus Society has already come to the capital or is on the way back. I think that if Guo Huan escapes, he will definitely seek refuge with him.”
Su MO changed his grip on the sword.. “I’m going to catch Guo Huan!”
