The legitimate daughter returns, and everyone in the Marquis's mansion regrets and begs for for

"Furthermore, she hasn't studied any arts or sciences, so how could she possibly know anything about medicine? Therefore, she absolutely cannot cure that injured patient!"

"Hmph, that's not necessarily true!"

Old Master Liu snorted coldly and said.

He knew perfectly well that Su Muya's medical skills were far more than what she had shown; those skills had been lost many years ago. Back then, he had even made a special trip to the capital to witness firsthand the entire process of Su Muya treating that patient.

Su Muya's amazing medical skills impressed everyone, but that doesn't prove anything.

Moreover, Old Master Liu believed that Su Muya would definitely surprise him!

“Little Seven, it’s not that I doubt that, but I feel that this girl’s medical skills are more than what they seem on the surface!” Old Master Liu said meaningfully.

Seeing this, Butler Li was slightly taken aback, then frowned and said, "So you mean..."

Grandpa Liu glanced out the window, then lowered his voice and said, "Go and investigate Su Muya's whereabouts during this time!"

"Yes! Your servant obeys!"

Butler Li bowed respectfully and then withdrew.

The next day, at the Liu residence.

Su Muya had just finished her breakfast when she saw a servant boy from Old Master Liu's side rushing over.

"Second Miss, Master Liu requests your presence in the main hall. He says there's something important he'd like to discuss with you!"

Upon hearing this, Su Muya frowned immediately. She hadn't had a proper rest yet! Meeting so early was too much trouble!

However, she still followed the servant boy towards the flower hall.

When she arrived at the flower hall, Old Master Liu was sitting upright in a chair. When he saw her, he immediately smiled.

"Little Qi, come here quickly, sit down!"

"Old Master Liu greeted them."

Upon hearing this, Su Muya had no choice but to sit down opposite him and ask, "What does Grandpa Liu want with me?"

"I'm here to talk to you about the affairs of the second branch of the Su family, Xiao Qi. You should know that your father is the sole heir of the Su family, and I am his mentor, so..."

Upon hearing this, Su Muya immediately understood what Old Master Liu wanted to say, and replied, "Old Master Liu, don't worry. As long as I'm not stupid, I certainly wouldn't do anything to betray the Su family. As for the infighting among the Su family's concubine daughters, there's no need for you to concern yourself with that!"

Su Muya's words carried a clear hint of rejection, but Old Master Liu, unconcerned, still smiled and said, "Little Seven, you're overthinking it!"

"Old Master Liu, let's not beat around the bush. Just name your conditions! As long as it's within my power, I'll definitely agree!"

Su Muya said bluntly.

Upon hearing this, Old Master Liu's smile deepened: "Good, that's a good idea! I like intelligent and sensible girls like Xiao Qi. I hope you can do something for our Liu family."

"If you can do this for me, I guarantee I'll not only restore Liu Wenhao to his health, but I'll also help you obtain the inheritance rights to the Su family estate. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, Su Muya's heart skipped a beat.

"You mean you want me to be the heir to the Su family business?"

Su Muya asked tentatively.

“That’s right!” Old Master Liu said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Su Muya's lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she held back and did not speak.

"I understand!" Su Muya said softly. "Since Grandpa Liu is so sincere in his invitation, I will certainly do my utmost!"

After saying that, Su Muya stood up and cupped her hands in a respectful gesture towards Old Master Liu.

Seeing this, Old Master Liu smiled and nodded, "Then, tonight at 7 PM, at the Liu family garden, see you there!"

"Goodbye!"

"Take care, Xiao Qi!"

Grandpa Liu smiled as he saw Su Muya off, a sly glint in his eyes.

On her way back, Su Muya felt uneasy.

As she thought about it, she quickened her pace.

But soon, Su Muya realized something was wrong. She had a feeling that someone was following her.

She felt a little nervous, but also a little relieved.

She figured Old Master Liu wouldn't be so bold as to kill her right there in the Liu residence! So, she was still safe!

So, Su Muya pretended not to know that someone was following her and went straight into the Liu family's gate, then quickly walked towards the Liu family compound.

But soon, Su Muya noticed something was wrong, because there were many times more guards at the Liu residence than usual! There were even two or three times more guards at the main gate!

After she came in, someone kept watching her. Could it be that Old Master Liu sent someone to monitor her?

Su Muya thought to herself.

The more Su Muya thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, and her heart beat faster and faster.

She knew the Liu family wouldn't dare kill her, but what if they really did?

Thinking of this, Su Muya couldn't help but grit her teeth.

It seems we have no choice but to outsmart them.

As Su Muya walked, she pondered where things had gone wrong.

She knew the layout of the Liu residence very well and there was no one suspicious at all, so why was the Liu residence's defenses doubled?

Su Muya was completely baffled, so she gave up trying to figure it out and decided to ask other members of the Liu family instead.

Su Muya entered a courtyard of the Liu family. The courtyard was planted with many flowers and plants, and there were also various artificial mountains and sculptures in the garden.

As soon as Su Muya stepped into the courtyard, she heard two servants walk out from the side.

One of the servants saw that Su Muya was dressed in fine clothes and came out of the Liu mansion gate, so he guessed Su Muya's identity.

He immediately switched to a fawning smile and said to Su Muya, "Oh, isn't this Miss Su? What brings you back all of a sudden? Weren't you always cultivating at the Su residence? Did the Su residence give you another break?"

Upon hearing this, Su Muya's face instantly darkened.

Looking coldly at the arrogant servant opposite him, he asked, "And who are you?"

"Oh dear, what are you saying, young lady?"

"I'm the servant here! My name is Zhao Er." The servant was immediately displeased that Su Muya didn't even remember his own name, but because of Su Muya's status, he didn't dare to show it, so he could only smile and patiently explain.

Zhao Er?

Su Muya searched her memory carefully and finally remembered who the servant was.

He was an ordinary servant in the Liu family. Although he was called a servant, he was actually the illegitimate son of Master Liu. His father's legal wife had died long ago, so he always followed Master Liu around.

However, this servant was treacherous and ruthless, and he was most skilled at using all sorts of despicable means to force others to work for him.
