Ye Lingbai was shocked and quickly tried to console her. “Mother, it was my fault. I’ll apologize to her right away.”
He stood up and bowed deeply to Su Yingxue. “I acted impulsively earlier, and I’m sorry. Also, thank you, Dr. Su, for treating my mother!”
“No need for thanks,” Su Yingxue replied calmly.
She could see that although Xu Aoqing had been ill for many years, she had never neglected her children’s education and was a strict mother.
As for Ye Lingbai, although he was impulsive, he was capable of recognizing his mistakes and wasn’t unreasonable.
However, the reason he had lashed out made Su Yingxue feel the need to advise him. “Young Master Ye, you hold a prestigious position. Even if the Marquis reprimands you and you temporarily lose the glory of being the heir, you must remember that as long as your title hasn’t been officially taken away, you must uphold the dignity of an heir. Harboring such hatred for those surnamed Su and acting rashly is inappropriate.”
“Miss Su is right!” Xu Aoqing agreed wholeheartedly.
She grasped Ye Lingbai’s hand. “Ling’er, you must never act so impulsively again. If Su Xinlan, that wicked woman, hears about it, she’ll only harm us further!”
Ye Lingbai clenched his fists, suppressing his grievances. “I understand, Mother. I will remember what you and Miss Su have said.”
He turned to Su Yingxue and bowed deeply again. “Earlier, I was apologizing. This time, I want to sincerely thank you. From what I’ve seen, my mother’s condition has greatly improved under your care. I beg you, Miss Su, to continue treating her and relieve her from this suffering.”
Su Yingxue smiled. “I never start treating a patient only to stop halfway. I assure you, Madam’s illness will be completely cured. She will recover and remain healthy for many years to come.”
“Really?” Ye Lingbai was overjoyed. “If Miss Su can truly cure my mother, I will no longer hold any grudge against people surnamed Su and will reward you generously.”
He only knew her as Su Yingxue and wasn’t aware of her relationship with Su Xinlan. But he thought to himself, a woman as noble and compassionate as Su Yingxue, who embodies the heart of a healer, surely couldn’t be like the venomous Su Xinlan.
Su Yingxue shook her finger. “You can continue to hold your grudge. After all, I do have conditions for curing Madam.”
“What conditions?”
Xu Aoqing felt a bit anxious. She knew there was no such thing as a free lunch, and a genius doctor wouldn’t just come to her door to treat her without reason.
“I want Su Xinlan expelled from the Changxin Marquis’s Manor and for Madam’s children to take the place of Ye Zhenzhen in the Marquis’s Manor.”
Su Yingxue spoke calmly and deliberately.
“But… isn’t she your aunt?” Old Madam Sang was astonished.
On the other hand, Xu Aoqing looked thoughtfully at Su Yingxue and said, “Miss Su is indeed a wise person.”
“I have medical skills that can guarantee Madam’s recovery. But can Madam guarantee that I will get what I want?” Su Yingxue negotiated with Xu Aoqing based on mutual benefit.
Though she had a healer’s heart and would treat Xu Aoqing, she wasn’t a person who did things out of sheer kindness.
Every action she took had a purpose, which she conveyed to Xu Aoqing.
“Wait! Since you are Su Xinlan’s niece, why… why would you do this?” Ye Lingbai couldn’t understand the woman standing before him, who had seemed inscrutable from the very first moment they met.
“Because Su Xinlan is a bad person!” Su Miaoyan interjected, raising her small face and snorting.
