"Master Si, what should we do?" Liu Sheng was also very anxious.

"You follow behind him."

"Yes."

...

In the Yi Garden wing room, one of Xiao Chonghuan’s secret guards reported on the incident that had happened on the street.

Xiao Chonghuan flew into a rage, "Chuan’er has gone mad, why is he so careless with his body!"

"It must be that cheap woman Su Qingyue who made Chuan’er like this. Master, what are you waiting for, just order someone to kill her!" Shen Yun was also furious.

"This woman is a curse, she definitely can’t be left alive." Xiao Chonghuan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his face stern, "Lady, when it came to critical times in the past, you were quite astute. Why can’t you keep your composure now? We’ve tried to assassinate Su Qingyue secretly twice and it hasn’t worked; she’s probably on her guard."

"Hmph, even if Su Qingyue sees through the poison carefully concocted by you, Master, she couldn’t possibly be that skilled in martial arts. Just send a killer to chop her up to pieces," Shen Yun didn’t think much of Su Qingyue.

"It’s easy to chop her up, but that will openly offend Chang Haotian, to say nothing of directly confronting Pear Blossom Villa. Chuan’er has such a reaction, surely it’s because Su Qingyue did something to drive him to despair," Xiao Chonghuan’s eyes flashed with malice, "Su Qingyue indeed deserves to die, but not while everyone is watching. We will kill her in a few days, quietly, without anyone noticing."

Shen Yun agreed, "Master is wise indeed. I’m just worried about my son, got anxious, and momentarily lost my composure."

Xiao Chonghuan asked the secret guard, "Do you know what exactly happened between Chuan’er and Su Qingyue?"

"I tracked them several times but was discovered as soon as I got close," the secret guard pondered for a moment. "I think, even from a distance, Su Qingyue knew I was surveilling her. Su Qingyue didn’t say anything, but when the young Master found out, he scolded me not to track them, or else my life would be demanded. Thus, I have no knowledge of what happened in Qin Garden that caused the young Master to become like this. I only know when the young Master left Qin Garden, Su Qingyue and Chang Haotian were together in there."

"Alone with a man..." Shen Yun snorted coldly, "maybe Su Qingyue and Chang Haotian were having an affair, and Chuan’er caught them in the act."

Xiao Chonghuan’s corner of the mouth twisted into a sly smile, "Lady, isn’t it perfect that you wanted to use Chang Haotian, to frame him for having an affair with Su Qingyue, and catch them in bed? It’s just that both Su Qingyue and Chang Haotian are not easy to handle, and since Su Qingyue is also familiar with various poisons, we have been reluctant to make a move against her."

"This actually saves us the trouble." A trace of irony flickered in Shen Yun’s eyes. "It looks like there really is something not quite right between Su Qingyue and Chang Haotian. Someone, go follow Chuan’er, and ask the imperial doctor from the inn to come over."

"Yes."

...

Xiao Yuchuan walked alone in the torrential rain, his clothes long since soaked through, rainwater mixed with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, staining his clothes as it seeped into the ground, blending with the rain to spread ripples of sorrowful red.

A Xiao Clan secret guard stood in front of him, "Young Master, you are injured. I have been ordered by our owner to take you back for treatment."

"Get lost!" Xiao Yuchuan roared emotionlessly.

"Young Master!" The secret guard tried to stop him again, but Xiao Yuchuan sent a palm strike his way, forcing the secret guard to hastily dodge.

Xiao Yuchuan, whether blinded by rage or overwhelmed with grief, had his vision blurred by tears mingling with the rain. He mistook the secret guard for Chang Haotian and bellowed, "I am going to kill you!" His moves were fierce and swift, like lightning, aiming directly for the secret guard’s vital points.
