Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

—Three days later

Chen Shishi was almost unable to contain himself anymore. As soon as his foot healed, the people on duty looked at him with poisonous eyes. He asked around and found out that Cui Can's affair had become known to everyone.

In addition, the Cui family's attitude towards him during the court session was too obvious, and everyone seemed to have received some signal.

How could he not panic?

If he doesn't go to the Cui family and take Cui Can back, I'm afraid those censors will not let him go.

Now he has to go back to Wang Yiru and ask the eldest princess for the antidote. He must make sure that Cui Can appears in front of everyone safely.

But Wang Yiru was completely stubborn at this point, even considering poisoning Cui Can to death. He wanted to ask for an audience with the eldest princess, but the eldest princess never opened her eyes to look at him. If she knew that he wanted to take Cui Can back, she would probably not give him the antidote.

Chen Shishi had no other choice but to go to Cui's house in person.

—Cui Mansion

"The Duke is still resting. The Third Master and the Second Master have important matters to discuss. Please come back tomorrow." The old butler's attitude towards him was not as respectful as before, but his words were still as polite as before.

The smile on Chen Sishi's face never fell. "Nothing, I'll just wait a little longer."

He didn't even dare to suggest going in to wait, for fear that he would be rejected even more thoroughly, which would only make him even more embarrassed.

"Then you just wait patiently." The old butler closed the door completely with an expressionless face.

Such a hypocritical and artificial person turned out to be the son-in-law of the Duke's Mansion. All the servants had heard about what had happened in the past few days. Moreover, as they were members of the Cui family, they naturally knew that what Chen Shishi had done was far more disgusting than what was said outside.

Chen Shishi was frustrated, but he didn't dare to leave easily. Even if he fainted from standing today, he had to ask the Cui family to open the door.

An hour later.

Cui Wujiu put down the chess piece in his hand and asked, "Chen Shishi hasn't left yet?"

The old housekeeper shook his head.

"Then meet him." Although Chen Shishi was wrong, if the Cui family made him stand for so long and did not let him in, it would be rude of the Cui family.

After all, Chen Shishi is still their son-in-law.

"I lost again." Chen Xuyan thought that he had used the chess skills of an adult, but it was still too childish in front of Cui Wujiu.

Cui Wujiu collected the chess pieces one by one. "It's quite impressive that you can play like this at such a young age. The emperor's eldest grandson is far inferior to you. It seems that our Yan'er has been hiding his abilities."

Chen Xuyan smiled embarrassedly. When he was six years old, he was far worse than that kid.

The royal family's training was truly abnormal. He had once been reincarnated as a prince, but he was never willing to demonstrate his "ability" in the positive training in the mission world. He always looked cynical or unlearned, because the royal family was too harsh in training the princes.

This kind of life is really not a life for human beings. So many princes died in infancy. Some of them died of exhaustion due to excessive exertion, or their immunity was too poor, and some even died suddenly.

In short, he would avoid it.

Although Cui Xianxun was not good at chess, he could still understand. "When you grow up, he will definitely not be your opponent. But you still need to train your body. I will choose a martial arts master for you. You must not complain about the hardship."

Now it seems that Yan'er not only has courage and cleverness, but he is also very smart. Maybe he can pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi in the future. It would be best if he can be both civil and martial, because that is what a real man should be.

"Thank you, Third Uncle." He didn't expect that Cui Xianxun took his casual boasting to heart.

Why did he feel that Cui Wujiu was trying to trick him, trying to get him to show off his strength? He looked up and saw Cui Wujiu looking at him with a smile, but he couldn't get angry because Cui Xianxun was right next to him.

"Let's go and meet that ungrateful guy." Cui Xianxun picked up Chen Xuyan unexpectedly.

"It's sunk a little more."

Chen Sishi was apprehensive as he was led into the Duke's Mansion. He worried that Cui Dunxiu would be hostile to him, and that Cui Xianxun would kill him with a single blow. The fact that he had kicked his mother off a cliff proved that he hated him deeply, and it would only make him hate him more.

See, there are only two of them?

Cui Dunxiu didn't want to see him.

"Yan'er." Chen Shishi wanted to reach out and hug him.

Chen Xuyan turned around expressionlessly and lay in Cui Xianxun's arms.

Chen Sishi could only withdraw his hand awkwardly, "Yan'er, you haven't seen your father for a long time. You almost forgot about him, right?"

"I was injured some time ago, so I couldn't come to see you. Did you receive the toys your father sent you?"

The child still pretended not to hear.

Cui Xianxun was not so good-tempered. He hugged Chen Xuyan and sat on the stool, "Okay, stop pretending. If you have something to say, just say it."

Cui Wujiu sat at the top table drinking tea, with no intention of meeting his gaze.

"I want to take Can'er back home, and then ask a famous doctor to detoxify her. I heard that Yan'er is looking for a teacher now, and I have already found one for him." Chen Shishi was really nervous.

Why did he feel like they saw through him completely? As if they knew what he would say?

Even Cui Xianxun's temper was not right. He didn't get angry at him, let alone hit him. What was going on?

"Why don't you tell me who poisoned Can'er? The fact that this person could find this kind of poison is enough to show that his identity is not ordinary. I don't seem to remember you offending such a person?" Cui Wujiu's words were concise and to the point.

Chen Shishi had no way to dodge.

He could only feign ignorance. "I really don't know. I asked so many doctors to see me, but they still couldn't figure it out. Maybe it's someone Can'er offended in the past?"

Cui Xianxun glanced at him coldly, "You're talking nonsense, are you trying to say this is retribution for our Cui family?"

"It seems to me that you have done something shameful and want to silence someone. Why don't you just honestly give up the woman you are hiding!"

This idiot, even now he is still able to push the blame on them.

Do you really think you have done it perfectly?

Chen Sishi pretended to be calm, "There must be a misunderstanding. How could I be hiding any woman? I have always only married Can'er and promised to stay with her forever. Naturally, I love only her with all my heart."

This time was indeed difficult to endure. Cui Wujiu was an extremely difficult person to deal with.

It’s such a headache to be targeted by him.

"Really? You told me in person by my bed that you have someone you truly love, and you have a son and a daughter with her?" Cui Can walked out slowly from the back room.

"You, you." Chen Shishi was so scared that he took two steps back and fell to the ground.
