Su Dingwei hadn’t even gotten the chance to inquire when Chu Xiaotian was the first to express surprise, “Mow did you sustain such serious injuries? Who did this to you?”

Su Dingwei pushed Chu Xiaotian away. “Han’er was rescued from your Regional Prince’s Mansion, and yet you have the nerve to ask such a question!”

Previously, he had felt that although Chu Xiaotian tended to be unfair, favoring his mother and sister, he was at least an upright person. Now, seeing Chu Xiaotian’s face, he felt thoroughly disgusted.

He didn’t know how to convey his anguish. He reached out, his palm comforting as it covered Su Han’s hand. “Han’er, rest assured, Father will stand up for you. You won’t suffer any more injustice.”

As he withdrew his hand, he accidentally brushed against Su Han’s fingers. Su Han bit her lip, her face showing pain.

Qin Wan stood by Su Han’s side, wiping her tears, her voice choked with emotion as she reminded Su Dingwei, “Husband, be gentle. Han’er’s fingers were crushed, even the gaps are filled with blood.”

“What?” Su Dingwei’s heart trembled fiercely. He wished he could turn around and throttle Chu Xiaotian.

Su Han spoke lightly, “Father, don’t be angry. Today, Han’er has something to tell everyone.”

“Alright, Father will personally assist you inside.”

Su Dingwei put away the sword and handed it to a servant.

Originally, Su Han was seated on a heavily padded armchair, requiring two people to carry her. However, when Su Dingwei approached, he lifted the chair with his powerful arms, raising Su Han.

Standing behind Su Han, his deep voice resonated with a strong protective instinct. “Han’er, as long as Father is here, you have nothing to fear.”

Qin Wan stood beside Su Han, accompanying her into the hall.

In the hall, Su Qingzhi and Chu Yihan sat on the dais. Su Han bowed slightly. “Due to Han’er’s severe injuries, I am unable to bow to Grandfather and Ninth Prince. Please forgive me.”

“No, Grandfather won’t blame you.” Su Qingzhi’s eyes overflowed with compassion as he witnessed Su Han’s condition.

In front of his granddaughter, he wasn’t the defender great general, but simply her grandfather.

Chu Yihan also spoke indifferently, “It’s all right.”

But after speaking, he stood up and nodded to Su Qingzhi. “As this is a matter concerning Old General Su’s family, it’s inappropriate for me to remain. 1’11 take my leave.”

He believed Su Yingxue would handle things competently and had also considered her feelings.

“Your Highness, I’m grateful for your assistance.” Su Qingzhi rose and bowed. Without Chu Yihan’s intervention, Su Han wouldn’t have returned to the Marquis’s Manor so easily.

Su Yingxue paid no heed to this.

Yet, she knew Chu Yihan had her best interests at heart. She approached him and made a slight curtsy. “Thank you, Your Highness.”

Chu Yihan helped her up and whispered in a voice only they could hear, “Never thank me.”

Everything he did for her was only natural.

“Though it’s a family matter, Your Highness is still a senior member of the Imperial family. Your Highness, please stay and bear witness.”

Unexpectedly, Su Han made this request.

“Han’er, what are you planning to say?” Qin Wan was somewhat concerned.

While the Su family could handle their affairs privately, involving Chu Yihan as a witness would escalate the matter.

“Oh? Our Su family’s Eldest Young Miss is quite grand! To think, she could even make such an esteemed person like the Ninth Prince stay behind over a family matter. Once this spreads, what will people say? Our Su family’s miss, how much face does she have?” Su Xinlan remarked in a sarcastic tone..
