Tian Denghua's feelings were very complicated: "You, you..."

Others may not know, but she does.

My second son used to be obsessed with romance.

He almost harmed his younger sister because of his love-struck behavior.

Since then, her second son may have gone a bit too far.

Tian Denghua's expression was complicated, and Zhao Annian was dumbfounded. He looked at Song Yueping kneeling, then at Sun Yuqian crying, and finally at General Sun and his wife with their ashen faces. He was also very complicated and didn't know what to say.

General Sun's face turned ashen as he roared, "Nonsense! Absurdity! The marriage is arranged, the date is set, and you say you'll take it a long time to discuss it?! What do you take my Qianqian for?!"

Song Yueping knelt there, her back straight: "Yes, I know this is unfair to Miss Sun. So, General Sun, you may hit me or scold me as you please."

General Sun, enraged, raised his hand to slap him.

Zhao Annian stopped him, saying, "Let's talk this out."

General Sun, still enraged, kicked him.

Song Yueping was kicked to the ground.

Sun Yuqian covered her mouth in fright.

Zhao Annian was also unhappy.

Seeing that General Sun was about to kick again, he stepped in front of Song Yueping and firmly pressed down on General Sun's shoulder: "I said, Sun Tieniu, that's enough! My second son's words were inappropriate, so one kick to calm him down is enough! ...But then again, what my second son said was 'next time.' What do you mean by 'next time'? The child was upset and didn't pay attention, but don't you adults understand?"

General Sun was taken aback, but his face remained grim. He stiffened his neck and said, "He's already considering breaking off the engagement, that won't do!"

"Why not?" Zhao Annian sneered. "Old Sun, have you forgotten why you came here? You came to apologize! My wife is kind-hearted; out of consideration for our two families' marriage, she didn't say anything bad about your daughter. But you don't know how upset and worried my wife was behind the scenes, but I do! ... The reason I let you kick my second son is because he shouldn't have said the words about breaking off the engagement to Miss Sun. That should have been said by us, as parents, to you two! But apart from that, I don't think my second son did anything wrong!"

“The first time, Miss Sun may not have thought much about it. Even if she subconsciously thought of pushing our Yan Yan out to resolve this matter, we still have a hurdle in our hearts and feel sorry for our child,” Zhao Annian said coldly. “So, if something like this happens again, even if I have to give up my official position and never have anything to do with you again, I will still seek justice for my child.”

General Sun and his wife stood there dumbfounded.

Sun Yuqian, who had been crying the whole time, calmed down a bit at this moment.

She wiped away her tears, straightened up from her mother's arms, and choked out, "...Uncle is right, I really did something wrong."

General Sun and his wife actually knew that their daughter had done something wrong, otherwise they wouldn't have brought her to apologize.

"I should apologize to Yan Yan in person."

Sun Yuqian fought back tears, her voice trembling slightly, "I really didn't mean to force her. I... I'm sorry to her."

Tian Denghua shook her head and sent someone to call Song Yanyan over.

Song Yanyan was playing with Fusu Hehua in Qi Lian's courtyard when she heard her mother calling her. Without thinking much, she tidied herself up and came over.

Upon entering the house, they found Sun Yuqian with red and swollen eyes filled with tears. Her second brother was kneeling on the ground, and General Sun and his wife, along with her parents, all had somewhat complicated expressions.

This situation is clearly somewhat complicated.

Song Yanyan was taken aback, but still politely greeted General Sun and his wife.

"Greetings, General; greetings, Madam; greetings, Sister Sun."

Before Song Yanyan could finish her greeting, Sun Yuqian took two steps forward and solemnly curtsied in front of her: "Yanyan, I shouldn't have said those things to you today. I'm sorry."

Song Yanyan was startled and quickly pulled Sun Yuqian up: "Sister Sun, it's alright. Ultimately, this matter is still caused by the problems with the Wu Prince's Mansion."

When Sun Yuqian saw that Song Yanyan was actually comforting her, she immediately felt even more ashamed.

The expressions on General Sun and his wife's faces softened considerably.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tian Denghua pulled Song Yueping up.

Her son remained kneeling on the ground, and she felt heartbroken for him.

Song Yanyan's arrival quickly brought the atmosphere back to normal.

At least when General Sun and his wife left with Sun Yuqian, their expressions were much more normal.

After everyone left, Tian Denghua and her family closed the door. Tian Denghua then reached out and tugged at Song Yueping's clothes, wanting to see his shoulder.

Just now, Sun Tieniu kicked Song Yueping in the shoulder.

Song Yueping was still a little embarrassed: "Mother, my sister is still here."

Tian Denghua glared at her: "It won't hurt you if your sister sees you! If you don't let her see, she'll worry about you!"

Song Yueping fell silent and obediently began to undress.

When Song Yanyan saw the footprint on Song Yueping's shoulder and heard what Tian Denghua said, she gasped: "Was that General Sun's kick?...No, why would he kick my second brother!"

Song Yanyan was a little angry.

Zhao Annian chimed in, "Daughter, it was your second brother who told Miss Sun that if she talked nonsense to you again, the marriage would have to be reconsidered. He made Miss Sun cry. Her father couldn't stand it, so he kicked your second brother."

Song Yanyan was speechless.

She was somewhat touched.

She could guess that her second brother did this entirely because of her.

But... that would be too hurtful.

No wonder the atmosphere in the room was so strange when she came in.

Song Yueping's clothes were undone, revealing bruises all over his body, the marks left from his time fighting in the capital's military camp.

Above the wound, the reddish-purple footprint-shaped mark on the shoulder is very conspicuous.

Tian Denghua was heartbroken, and her eyes turned red.

Zhao Annian quickly had someone fetch some medicinal wine for sprains and bruises.

Tian Denghua was about to apply the medicine to Song Yueping when Zhao Annian stopped her, saying, "Let me do it. It takes a lot of effort to rub the medicinal wine into the wound so that it can dissolve the blood stasis."

Tian Denghua nodded, her eyes red.

Song Yanyan stood to the side, tears welling up in her eyes from heartache.

Zhao Annian really put a lot of effort into rubbing the medicinal wine, and even Song Yueping couldn't help but scream in pain.

Tian Denghua and Song Yanyan felt extremely sorry for her.

Hearing her son's screams, Tian Denghua felt as if her heart was being torn apart. She blamed Sun Tieniu even more: "...He used so much force. My second son is already covered in injuries. Isn't he afraid of breaking Yueping's arm!"

After Zhao Annian finished rubbing the medicinal wine on Song Yueping, a light sweat appeared on his forehead. Song Yueping herself was covered in cold sweat, as if she had been pulled out of the water.

"It's alright, son. I'll get revenge for you later!" Zhao Annian grinned sinisterly. "I'll make that old bastard know that my son, Zhao Annian's son, isn't so easy to kick!"
