To divorce his wife, the top scholar preferred being cuckolded to wearing a red hat.

Wang Wenran pointed to her eyes with a wronged expression and said, "I didn't make this up. Everyone knows that a beautiful woman secretly came to the academy to see him. I only heard it from my mother yesterday. That woman is now a concubine in the Su family. When I saw him today, I mentioned it to him. And because of that, look how badly he beat me."

When Su Guanzheng saw him bring up the matter again, his anger flared up and he was about to rush up and hit Su Guanzheng again: "You still dare to say that? Believe me or not, I'll beat your mouth flat."

"Lord Wang, no wonder my son is angry. Listen to what your son is saying. My son isn't my own flesh and blood, is he born to a stranger? Besides, that woman was near the academy just to see Guan Zheng. You heard her say it yourself. At such a young age, she's neglecting her studies and yet she's so good at making up rumors."

"What happened today was entirely your son's fault, and he must apologize to my son." Hearing this, Madam Ruan was furious. Regardless of whose son Su Guanzheng was, he was her son, the one she raised.

Su Sihai's expression was also very bad: "Lord Wang, look at what your son is saying. How dare your son spout such baseless and unfounded rumors? My son is the legitimate son, how come he's become a lowly illegitimate son in his mouth? Today's matter is his fault, he must apologize."

Lord Wang slapped his son across the face: "You good-for-nothing! You've forgotten everything your teacher taught you. How can you spout such baseless nonsense? Apologize to Young Master Su. If he doesn't forgive you, you don't need to go home."

Young Master Wang shrank back and took a few steps forward: "Su Guanzheng, I'm sorry, I meant to make a joke with you. Now I realize that such jokes are not appropriate. I'm sorry, I will never make such jokes again. I hope you can forgive me."

"If you dare to talk about me like that again, I'll knock your dog teeth out."

"Yes Yes."

After Su Guanzheng returned to his residence, Su Sihai hurriedly asked Su Mingyue to come and take care of him.

"The other party has some martial arts skills, and they hit quite hard. The bruises on your face should go away after a few days of rest." Su Mingyue examined Su Guanzheng's injuries and casually plucked a strand of hair from his hair.

When Madam Ruan came over to ask, she also handed over one.

To find out if Su Guanzheng is Ruan's biological son, all that's needed is for her to have a DNA test with him. As for how to do the test, leave it to Xiao Wu; she'll handle it.

After leaving Su Guanzheng's place, she put two strands of hair with the roots still attached into the box.

"Young Miss," Liu Yiyi said, just as she came out of Lanmei Courtyard, "Did you go on a house call?"

"No, it's Guan Zheng. He got into a fight with the young master of the Wang family and suffered some minor injuries. My father asked me to go and take a look at him."

"How are your injuries, young master?" Liu Yiyi asked.

"It's alright. He'll be fine after a few days of rest. He's alright, but the young master of the Wang family is in a worse condition. He usually seems like a well-behaved person, but he can be quite ruthless when he fights."

"It's good that the young master is alright. If something had happened to him, the master would have been very distressed. I wonder what the two of them were fighting about. They're so young, yet they have such strong tempers."

“I didn’t ask about that, and my father didn’t say either.”

Su Mingyue chatted with Liu Yiyi for a few minutes and then went back.

No sooner had Su Mingyue left than Que Ling returned.

"Have you found out why the young master got into a fight?"

Que Ling hesitated and refused to speak.

"Speak, is there anything I can't hear?"

Que Ling then told Liu Yiyi the information she had gathered.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi's expression changed.

This matter is so secretive, how could it be so obvious that outsiders could guess it at a glance?

"Find a time to call the master over." Liu Yiyi felt uneasy after hearing this. If Zheng'er knew that she was his biological mother, would he hate her?

She shouldn't have gone to the academy gate to secretly watch him; otherwise, her classmates wouldn't have misunderstood him.

Su Sihai's expression turned very bad when he learned that Liu Yiyi had secretly visited Su Guanzheng.

“Master, I missed Zheng’er so much before that I thought I could just catch a glimpse of him from afar. I’ve never spoken to Zheng’er, nor have I shown any impropriety. I don’t know why that young master Wang said such things. You must explain to Zheng’er that he is the legitimate son, who crawled out of the madam’s womb.” Liu Yiyi stood behind Su Guanzheng and said anxiously.

Su Sihai seemed to remember something and sighed softly, "Yiyi, this isn't your fault. Young Master Wang's words probably weren't unintentional. Someone discovered Zheng'er's background and wanted to use Young Master Wang to warn me."

It's impossible for Young Master Wang to conjure up such a grand drama based solely on a few glances at the entrance. Someone must have revealed something to him, or he must have inadvertently discovered something to make such a claim.

"Back then, my wife and I gave birth on the same day. In order for Zheng'er to have the status of a legitimate son, you took Zheng'er back to the Su family. Everyone who knew about this back then is no longer alive, except for you and me." Liu Yiyi really couldn't understand who else knew about this.

Just as Liu Yiyi finished speaking, they heard the sound of someone fainting at the door.

Su Ziyu, supporting her unconscious mother, quickly sent someone to fetch Su Mingyue. Her eyes glared fiercely at Su Sihai and Liu Yiyi: "Father, Aunt Liu, how dare you!"

Liu Yiyi looked at Ruan Shi outside the door and her pupils dilated in fright.

When did Madam Ruan arrive outside her room? All the maids were dead, and no one had announced her arrival.

"mother."

Su Mingyue had just returned to the courtyard and sat down when Shuangjiang came to invite her, saying that Ruan Shi had fainted and asked her to come over.

So, she became the family's physician.

She knew better than anyone why Madam Ruan had fainted.

Let's go. It'll be a good opportunity to see how Su Sihai reacts after Ruan wakes up.

Ruan was not seriously injured, but she was so angry that she couldn't catch her breath.

"Father, Aunt Ruan was just angry and upset. She has taken medicine and will be fine after resting for a while."

"You may all leave now. I have something to discuss with her." Su Sihai nodded, dismissing them so he could speak with Madam Ruan.

Outside, Su Mingyue glanced into the inner room and said to Su Ziyu, "What happened to your mother that made her so angry? Father is just taking a concubine; we have plenty of other concubines in the mansion. Is it really that big of a deal?"

"What do you know? If you don't know anything, don't speak." Su Ziyu was also in a bad mood at this moment: "Father and Mother will handle the family matters themselves. We are not in charge of the household, so why should we worry about this?"

"I'm just worried that Aunt Ruan is no match for Aunt Liu. What if she's after the position of mistress of the Su family? What will happen to Aunt Ruan then?" Su Mingyue sighed.
