At this moment, a servant suddenly ran in from outside the door and shouted from afar,"Patriarch, Young Master Li is here. He brought a huge carriage of betrothal gifts!”
Su Wulei suppressed the surging blood in his heart. His heart skipped a beat. Had Li Ziang come? Since he was here, the people from the other families who came to watch the ceremony should also be here. The Su family could not attack her!
She wanted to let everyone know that she, Su Wulei, was not a good-for-nothing. She was the eldest daughter of the Su family's direct line of descent. She wanted to create an impact so that everyone in the outside world would take her seriously.
Only in this way could the Su family care about their reputation and not easily attack her, the only daughter of the family head!
Su Henian frowned and slowly withdrew the pressure on his body. A gentle expression appeared on his face."Niece Wulei, I have something to do in the residence today. You should go to the back mountain to play.”
His tone was like that of an amiable elder, but his purpose was to cover up the truth that Su Wulei had returned unharmed. He planned to smoothly marry into the Li family so that he could sit firmly on the throne of the family head.
A few servant girls quickly appeared and carried Su Qingqing and Madam Zheng away so that no one could see the farce in the Su family.
Su Wulei sneered in his heart. Was he treating her like a fool? If she allowed him to succeed, she reckoned that after today, the Su family would no longer have a person like her, Su Wulei!
Perhaps he would have already gotten rid of her before today.
"Uncle, as the daughter of the Su family, Wulei should sacrifice his life for the Su family. I wonder what major event has happened to the Su family today? Wulei is willing to serve the family!" Su Wulei asked despite knowing the answer.
Naturally, she refused to leave.
Su Henian's face stiffened. It was already disgraceful to let his daughter replace someone else's engagement. How could he tell the victim?
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves outside the door was getting closer and closer. The various families who had come to watch the ceremony were about to arrive. Su Henian's face showed impatience.
"Men, quickly send Third Miss back to her residence at the back of the mountain. Without my order, you are not allowed to take half a step out of the back of the mountain.”
A few guards quickly surrounded Su Wulei. With the Acting Family Head present, they were much more confident.
"Third Miss, please!" One of the guards said as he grabbed her collar. It seemed that he had gained some courage after Su Henian came forward.
"Get lost!"
Su Wulei flipped the dagger in his hand, and killing intent flashed in his eyes. The guard instantly felt his entire body turn cold, as if he was in an ice cave.
Su Henian furrowed his thick eyebrows and a fierce look flashed across his face. He tilted his head slightly behind him.
"Su Wulei, don't be so shameless.”
Immediately, one of Su Henian's personal guards, who had a higher cultivation base than ordinary guards, strode towards her with disdain.
As soon as he got close to Su Wulei, he raised his hand and struck at her face.
His palm was emitting a cold aura. It was obvious that he had a water-type spiritual root. Only someone with a cultivation base of the Fourth Stage or above could do this.
Su Wulei was shocked. This was a true battle with a xiuzhe. This guard's battle experience was clearly not something that normal guards and Madam Zheng could compare to.
She quickly thought about how to deal with it.
The previous few attacks had already consumed too much energy. If she fought head-on, with Su Wulei's current weak spiritual power, she would probably be injured even if she won. At that time, Su Henian would definitely send people to capture her, or even Su Henian himself.
Her current goal was not to kill, but to stall for time. As long as all the guests of the Su family arrived, in front of outsiders, she was the eldest daughter of the Su family. For the sake of the Su family's reputation, Su Henian would definitely not dare to touch her. After all, Su Henian could not hide the sky with one hand.
"Wait, I promised to go to the back mountain." Su Wulei shouted loudly. His black eyes narrowed slightly to hide the sharp light in them.
The guard didn't stop. His palm landed squarely on her pale left cheek, and it instantly swelled up.
"Hehe…Wouldn't it have been easier if you listened to me earlier?”After the guard sneered, he grabbed Su Wulei's collar and instantly lifted her thin body up.
When Su Wulei was slapped on the face, she remained motionless until the guard lifted her up, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Before the guard left, he glared at the guards who were afraid and showed a smug expression.
After he gave Su Henian a flattering smile and received a look of praise, he held his head high and puffed out his chest. He held Su Wulei in one hand and strode towards the back of the mountain.
Su Henian's frown finally eased. He ordered lightly,""We can invite the distinguished guests into the residence!"
After saying that, he lifted his feet and prepared to go out to welcome the distinguished guest personally.
However, he had only taken a few steps when he heard a miserable scream behind him. His expression changed drastically!# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:082820187:49PM
