Dean Shen was also surprised when he saw a young man in a brocade robe at the door.
-Brocade robe / Jin Yi / éŚčĄŁ
Not only incompetent, but now this reckless kid also met Young Master Jing.
Young Master Jing was not easy to get along with. Although he looked young, he was merciless in actions.
Fortunately, this kid didnât really try to escape. He hoped Young Master Jing could see it for his own sake and forgive this brat for once!
âYoung Master Jingâ you came back just in timeâ Young Master has bore no grievances or enmities to others, but someone wants to harm him ahââ
Chang Ping began to mourn again.
The young man in brocade robe quickly glanced over the scene, paused for a moment on his unconscious cousin, and then turned to look at the stranger who appeared in the room.
âYou still havenât let go of her yet!â
Dean Shen scolded in a low voice.
Shen Chuan was so frightened that he had already forgotten that he was still holding Su Xiaoxiaoâs chubby wrist.
But Su Xiaoxiao calmly took her hand away.
Dean Shen hurriedly said, âYoung Master Jing, listen to my explanation, my son, he didnât mean toââ
Before he could finish speaking, Chang Ping interrupted him while crying: âShe drugged the young master and almost killed him⌠It was your son who let her in⌠and you still dare to say it wasnât intentionalâŚâ
âThisâŚâ Dean Shenâs scalp felt numb for a while.
There was a big misunderstanding. What should he do to protect his son?
Just at this moment, the shopkeeper of Rong En Tang followed with another doctor surnamed Yang sweating profusely.
They were originally coming with the young man in a brocade robe. But the young man suddenly quickened his pace, and they could not catch up. So they fell behind a few steps.
However, what did the servant just say?
There was someone who drugged the nobleman?
The shopkeeper of Rong En Tang stepped over the threshold and recognized the little chubby village girl in the room at a glance.
âItâs you!â
âShopkeeper Cao, do you know her?â Dean Shen asked.
Shopkeeper Cao looked at Dean Shen and said, âShe is a little swindler. Last time she went to Rong En Tang to cheat, I found out in time and kicked her out! Dean Shen, how could she be here? What you said before⌠the one who drugged the nobleman⌠could it be that it was her?â
Dean Shenâs expression gave Shopkeeper Cao the answer.
Shopkeeper Cao clenched his fist, pointed at Su Xiaoxiaoâs nose and said, âI see! No wonder the noblemanâs illness has never improved. I bet that it must be because of you who have been playing tricks in the dark!â
Dean Shen was not happy when he heard this.
It was a few days ago that Doctor Dong treated the young masterâs illness. Didnât the shopkeeper Cao mean that this girl had been here several times? Was their academy so negligent in security?
Or, was it his son who sent this girl over every day to harm the young master?
Shen Chuan said with a chuckle, âHey, surnamed Cao! Donât you make false accusations against others! It was your own medical skills that were not good enough. Why do you have to put the blame into Miss Su? Miss Su just came here today!â
This time, Dean Shen stood by his own son.
The young man in a brocade robe stepped forward.
He didnât say anything, but such a slight action actually intimidated everyone.
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Shen Chuan glanced at him boldly and saw him walking closer. Shen Chuanâs breath stopped for a while and his heart was beating so fast.
The young man stopped in front of him.
He was so nervous that he couldnât breathe.
âWhy are you here?â the young man in a brocade robe asked.
âI, I⌠IâŚâ Shen Chuan stammered and didnât know how to answer.
âIâm here to find someone.â Su Xiaoxiao said.
Shen Chuan was stunned, only then did he realize that the young man in a brocade robe was talking to Miss Su who was beside him.
âWhat did you give my biaoge1 to eat?â The young man in a brocade robe continued asking.
