Chapter 982: Chapter 980: You Can’t Swear by Chu Yihan
Su Yingxue lied with unease in her heart, and the more she spoke, the more dizzy she became.
“The child of the Su family? Swear to me that the child in this woman’s womb is definitely of the Su family!” Su Qingzhi coerced Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue thought to herself, if swearing is what it takes, then let it be, as people are alive and oaths are dead, considering the happiness of Su Hao and Wu Jinyan.
But as she raised her hand to swear, Su Qingzhi commanded her sternly, “Swear by the Ninth Prince, and if you dare lie to grandfather, you and the Ninth Prince will surely not meet a good end!”
“Grandfather! No!”
Su Yingxue immediately lowered her hand, “How can you make me swear by the Ninth Prince, this is not…”
She almost blurted out, isn’t this a curse on her and Chu Yihan?
For the sake of helping Su Hao and Wu Jinyan, she resolutely changed her tone, “I will not swear by the Ninth Prince!”
“You will not, or you dare not? If she is truly carrying your brother’s child, even if you swear by the Ninth Prince, what is there to fear? Unless the child is not…”
“Because the Ninth Prince is not someone you use to swear by!” Su Yingxue defied Su Qingzhi for the first time, “Grandfather, the Ninth Prince is my husband, my greatest love, the one who stands with me in life and death! It’s not just swearing by him, even using a single hair of his to swear is unacceptable!”
Su Yingxue’s shouting made the entire hall tremble.
Su Qingzhi was also shocked.
Su Yingxue had never talked back to him, not even for Chu Yihan.
Outside the hall, a man who had been concealing his presence and standing unobtrusively smiled slightly, forming a beautiful curve on his lips.
Mo Qi sighed beside him, “The Princess truly cares about the master, not even a single hair of the master can be used to swear by! Master, the Princess wants to be with you in life and death, won’t you go in and help her?”
In the past, his master would have already been protecting Su Yingxue, even if she turned the front hall upside down, he would have been there to support her!
Today, however, Chu Yihan had been holding back until now, not yet appearing before Su Yingxue.
“It’s not suitable for Your Highness to appear at this time.”
Chu Yihan’s hands clasped behind his back, clenched into fists.
If it were just the simple wedding of Su Hao, he would definitely stand by Su Yingxue’s side, no matter what she did.
But there were many peculiarities in Su Hao’s wedding.
Su Qinghe mysteriously obtained these things, and the paternity of the child in Wu Jinyan’s womb was being questioned for no reason, including the events that transpired between Wu Jinyan and Su Hao at Bamboo Leaf Pass, every single aspect was suspicious.
Especially the unimpressive Lu Ying, who always chipped in helpfully, but once he spoke up, he managed to win favor.
“Old General, in my opinion, Miss Wu is truly devoted to Su Hao, why not… let her stand, lest the child in her womb encounters trouble at the Su family, and by then, regardless of the truth, it will be impossible to clarify,” Lu Ying suggested generously on behalf of Su Hao, thus advising Su Qingzhi.
Su Qingzhi was suddenly reminded, if Wu Jinyan’s child just disappeared from the Su family like that.
Wouldn’t his Su family be burdened with this baseless reputation?
“You may stand up, you are not a descendant of the Su family, there’s no need to kneel before me.”
Su Qingzhi’s tone towards Wu Jinyan had cooled considerably, he even spoke such words as she isn’t a descendant of the Su family.
Previously, Wu Jinyan’s name had already been written into the Su family’s genealogy.
Wu Jinyan’s face lost all its color.
By her side, Su Yingxue and Su Hao were both still protecting her, giving her a sense of safety, even Su Han was still pleading on her behalf, wanting the wedding to continue and requesting Su Qingzhi to postpone the investigation into the child’s parentage.
