Chapter 1495: 1495 Covert Deployment

He suddenly sat up, shouting loudly, "Wife!"

Maid Yinzhu answered from outside the door, "Son-in-law, did you wake up?"

Xiao Yuchuan hastily dressed and went out of the bedroom, "Where is my wife?"

The young lady is in Elegant Garden."

He frowned, "What is she doing in Elegant Garden?"

He certainly did not think she was going to meet the Su Family couple.

She said she had business with Master Chang," Yinzhu replied truthfully.

It’s Haotian again!" Xiao Yuchuan clenched his fists and strode towards Elegant Garden. Upon entering the yard, he saw his wife and Chang Haotian sitting in the yard, drinking tea, and he erupted with uncontrollable rage, "Wife, Master Chang, you both seem to be enjoying yourselves quite nicely!"

Chang Haotian glanced coldly at Xiao Yuchuan, "The weather is fine today, it’s normal to enjoy tea with such spirits. Brother Xiao, why the gloomy face?"

Xiao Yuchuan felt like tearing Chang Haotian apart, "This is my house, get out of here!"

Compared to his fury, Chang Haotian was composed and proper, "I am a distinguished guest of your residence. Qing’er has already collected the fees for lodging and meals."

"I’ll refund you!" Xiao Yuchuan was furious.

Chang Haotian arched his eyebrows, "I know that Su Qingyue’s cakes are doing exceptionally well at the Jin Xun restaurants across the country, making a pretty sum. For Qing’er there is no issue in refunding me, even doubling the amount is a minor matter. But what about you, Brother Xiao... What will you use for the refund? Do you have any taels? Or are you planning to use Qing’er’s money?"

"You..." Xiao Yuchuan was at a loss for words. He fully realized that in front of a powerful person, he was utterly defenseless.

Indeed, everything he had now was given to him by his wife, not earned by himself.

His gaze turned to Su Qingyue, hoping she would preserve some of his dignity. He saw her just casually taking a sip of tea, her face indifferent.

The third brother had mentioned recognizing relatives the night before, and Su Qingyue felt that it was pointless to argue about money on his behalf; the Xiao Family was all about power and wealth.

Xiao Yuchuan scoffed, "Is this how you let people insult your husband?"

Her hand holding the tea cup paused, "Master Chang merely spoke the truth, there’s no reason for the third brother to take it to heart."

Chang Haotian’s sharp gaze swept over Su Qingyue and Xiao Yuchuan. There was... a problem between these two.

Could it be that Su Zhenzhu climbed into Xiao Yuchuan’s bed, and Qing’er got jealous?

It didn’t seem likely.

He felt that if Qing’er truly thought there was something between Xiao Yuchuan and Su Zhenzhu, her response wouldn’t be as it is now; she might directly divorce him.

Chang Haotian was no saint; he would prefer the rift between Qing’er and Xiao Yuchuan to grow wider, "Brother Xiao, as a man, still needing help from a woman, aren’t you embarrassed? So what if you’re insulted? You’re simply useless."

Xiao Yuchuan was so angry his heart nearly burst, and he threw a handful of poison powder, but Chang Haotian’s palm strike came just in time to counter, causing the poison to backfire onto Xiao Yuchuan. Just as he was about to make another move...

Su Qingyue’s voice broke the tension, very cold, "Third brother, that’s enough!"

Xiao Yuchuan blurted out in anger, "Su Qingyue, you are not acting like a proper wife!"

Her expression turned stern; her already desolate heart felt like it was cleaved in two, shattered into pieces, "Do you only realize this today?"

Her voice was so calm that it made Xiao Yuchuan panic.

Almost immediately after he spoke, he regretted it, "I’m sorry, wife, I..."

"Some words, once spoken, cannot be taken back," Su Qingyue’s voice was like a sigh.

Her last bit of attachment to the third brother... had been shattered.

She had already been making plans in secret; it wouldn’t take long...
