After the rebirth of the wronged soft girl, the devil's crematorium

Su Wan looked at Su Yanci in confusion. Her father naturally saw the situation clearly. It wasn't impossible for him to find a way out for the clan through the military token. But what surprised Su Wan was how unusually calm her father was when he heard she was still in contact with Xie Yin.

"Is father hiding something from me?" Su Wan raised her eyes and looked at the person opposite.

Su Yanci raised his eyelids, and his eyes gradually dimmed for a moment but soon returned to calm.

"What is Wan'er referring to?"

Su Wan pursed her lips and smiled, "Nothing. But hasn't father noticed that I'm different now?"

Su Yanci looked at Su Wantiao carefully, and seemed to react, "Your birthmark?"

Su Wan said happily, "I thought this was the end of my life, but I didn't expect to meet a Taoist priest who everyone called a miracle doctor. When the Taoist priest saw my birthmark, he was very surprised and said it was not congenital." Su Wan stared at Su Yanci and said, "To be honest, I thought the Taoist priest must be bluffing, but I didn't expect that after using his prescription, it really healed. Father, do you think it's possible that my birthmark was not brought from my mother's womb?"

Su Yanci's expression froze for a moment before he said firmly, "Of course it was born! However, it's understandable that this birthmark has changed a bit over the past decade. I'm very happy that this Taoist priest can help you realize your wish."

Su Wan saw that Su Yanci had a smile on his face, but the smile seemed forced.

"You must have heard about my aunt a long time ago, right?"

Su Yanci's expression froze, and he clenched his fists slightly, but his face remained silent. He only said with melancholy, "Si Niang was so willful that she ultimately ruined her own life."

"But before my aunt died, she told me that my mother's death was unusual." Su Wan looked at her father cautiously. "I wanted to find out the reason, but she wanted to kill me. Father, why is this? Are you really not going to tell me the truth?"

"Is it because of this that you were misunderstood?" Su Yanci asked.

Su Wan lowered her head. "Maybe my uncle knows that I didn't kill my aunt, and he's just angry that I shouldn't have acted on my own. But father, my daughter has grown up, and I have the right to know the truth, don't I?"

Su Wan looked at the person in front of her with tears in her eyes, which made Su Yanci feel a little reluctant. After a moment, he said slowly: "These are all old things. They have nothing to do with you. They are all in the past."

Seeing that Su Yanci didn't want to talk about those things, Su Wan didn't intend to force it. It seemed that this was not a trivial matter. The more Su Yanci acted like this, the more Su Wan felt it was necessary to get to the bottom of it.

……

Yesterday, a murder occurred in Bishui Lane in the capital, and the Jingzhao prefecture was quickly dispatched. Bishui Lane, adjacent to Shuiyang Lane, is a popular gathering place for merchants. The murder occurred in a jewelry shop. The Jingzhao prefecture immediately ordered an investigation into the shop, and unexpectedly discovered a secret passageway filled with fireworks. Further investigation revealed that the shop's owner was related to the Liu family.

Liu Wei was furious at this exposure.

"I'm going to see Yu Lang!"

"You are going to see him, but he may not want to see you." A voice came from outside the door. Liu Wei looked up and saw Zheng Weilan looking at him with a smile. Liu Wei immediately looked at the servant beside him.

The servant knelt on the ground and said, "Master, please forgive me. I thought..."

In the past, Zheng Weilan and Liu Wei were very close. Zheng Weilan didn't even need to report in advance if he wanted to enter Liu Wei's study. But after the incident in the Zheng family, Zheng Weilan rarely went out.

"Alright, I'm the one who said there's no need to worry about formalities between you and me. What? Seeing that my Zheng family has fallen on hard times, you want to draw a clear line between us?"

Liu Wei laughed dryly, "What are you talking about? Brother Zheng is still Brother Zheng." He then invited the person in. Although he really didn't want to be involved with the Zheng family, he couldn't offend them either.

"What are you going to do when you go see Yu Lang now? Question him? Or ask him to help you?" Zheng Weilan said, "It's clear that Xie Yin wants to take action against the Liu family. You think His Majesty needs you, so you don't dare to touch you, but you also know that His Majesty doesn't want to touch you." Zheng Weilan smiled faintly, "If Xie Yin succeeds, you will have even less leverage in front of His Majesty."

Liu Wei's eyes flashed, "What do you think, Brother Zheng?"

Zheng Weilan curled his lips, "Do you think Xie Yin only relies on the emperor's power?"

Liu Wei narrowed his eyes in thought, "Su family?"

Thinking about the previous incident when Su Yanshu sued the Jiang family, I always thought that the Su family wanted to seek justice for Su Si Niang, but now it seems that this may not be entirely the case.

"To be precise, it's the young lady of the Su family." Zheng Weilan's face turned cold.

"Madam, are we going back to the Su residence today?"

Su Wan nodded silently.

Liu Shang, watching Su Wan's distracted state, was deeply worried. She had assumed Su Lin wouldn't agree to Su Wan's request, given that he and Xie Yin didn't get along. But who would have thought he'd agree?

But that reason certainly made Su Lin refuse. Su Wan told her that Yuening was ill, and that it was difficult for her widowed mother and orphan. A few days ago, Su Lin had asked her where Yuening's father had gone, and Su Wan had already informed Fang Jinyue, saying that the man had died in a brothel after a life of debauchery. From then on, the daughter would take her surname, leaving her fatherless. Su Lin, sympathizing with the mother and daughter, agreed.

When they arrived at Fang's house, the moon was already hanging on the branches. Fang Jinyue was already waiting in the front garden with Yuening.

"Aunt, you're home!" Su Wan's soft voice warmed her heart. She squatted down and tapped Yuening's cheek with her index finger and said with a smile, "Aunt has been away for the past few days. Have you taken good care of the bastard?"

Yuening nodded. "Not only Yuening, but also Uncle Hero. He helped me feed the bastard and coax him to sleep. Uncle Hero is really good at telling stories."

"When did the hero uncle come here?"

"I've been here the whole time, but my wife didn't see me."

Su Wan looked up and saw Xie Yin, dressed in a red suit, walking towards the mother and daughter with his hands behind his back.

It felt as if the two of them were threatened by this guy.

"Thank you, Chief Sir, why…"

"Because I'm very free, can't I come to Yuening and Hunqiu every day to relieve my boredom?" Xie Yin crossed his arms, with a playful look in his eyes.

This woman clearly knew everything, yet she acted surprised. Couldn't she have said a few soft words? For example, "Xie Shousi, I know you're waiting for me, and I have a lot to say to you." Or, "I went outside and saw some amazing mountains and scenery." These were the things Su Wan would share with everyone around her whenever she stepped into the house, yet she kept him at a distance. He was furious!

Su Wan didn't answer, and the atmosphere seemed a little quiet. Fang Jinyue took the initiative to break the atmosphere and said, "Let's talk inside. Yuening feels cold, right?"

"Yes, yes, aunt, hero, let's go inside to warm up."

Xie Yin glanced at Su Wan, who had voluntarily made way for him and then followed. Su Wan's face flushed, presumably because she was in a good mood to see her father. Xie Yin's gaze seemed to be drawn to her, remaining fixed on her from beginning to end.

Although he looked angry, he was secretly happy in his heart.

The group entered the house happily, but they didn't know that the following conflict would shatter Xie Yin's brief fantasy.
