Chapter 56: You Still Have Us

~7 min read 1,247 words

Qin Yang froze.

I originally thought Su Nuan Yue would feel a bit down,

after all, what I just did was indeed a bit too much.

and I even threatened their whole family with the lives of her entire family.

But seeing Su Nuan Yue's reaction, Qin Yang also breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Su Nuan Yue can tell the difference.

"Do you think I would be angry about what you just did?"

Su Nuan Yue said, amused.

Qin Yang nodded.

Su Nuan Yue asked, amused: "Why would I be angry? You did it for me, and they really went too far—my aunt even wanted to kill me, but back then they absolutely refused to let her receive the punishment she deserved, so why should I feel sorry for them?"

Saying this, Su Nuan Yue's face turned cold, and she sneered: "If it weren't for you, I might even have been crippled in both legs—did they ever consider that?"

Qin Yang patted Su Nuan Yue's shoulder; that's just how it is.

That's why Qin Yang is unwilling to let Su Qiang off.

What Su Qiang did is truly beastly.

To lay hands on her own niece and even want to kill her—only Su Qiang could do something like that.

Such a person, left out there, is a threat to Su Nuan Yue.

Therefore, she must be sent away; and even if she weren't Su Nuan Yue's aunt, Qin Yang believes the best solution would be to kill her outright.

If it weren't for that lingering blood relation, Qin Yang would have already killed her.

"They don't want to punish Su Qiang because, in their hearts, Su Qiang matters more than I do—I'm just their enemy."

Su Nuan Yue said coldly.

"Your grandfather treats you pretty well."

Qin Yang said.

Hearing Qin Yang's words, Su Nuan Yue snorted slightly.

She sneered: "I know exactly how my grandfather treats me; he handed control of the Su Family to me not entirely out of fondness, but mainly because the other members of the Su Family are truly incapable—if he gave it to me, they could still live without worry, but if he gave it to anyone else, the Su Family would quickly decline and be ruined by them."

With that analysis, it's clear why the old master of the Su Family handed the Su Family over to Su Nuan Yue.

Only Su Nuan Yue has that kind of ability—she can fully prop up the Su Family and even help it develop further.

"What he loves most are still his daughter and son, and his grandsons; as for his granddaughters, in his eyes they're merely people he can use."

Su Nuan Yue said.

Qin Yang didn't know what to say, so he could only pat Su Nuan Yue's shoulder.

For the two of them, their parents and elders haven't been very good to them.

Even just not harming them is already considered pretty good.

Speaking of the two of them, they can truly be said to share the same suffering.

"It's fine; I've already figured it out and understood— the strong strengthen themselves, without needing to crave others' feelings; as long as I live better than them, that's enough."

Su Nuan Yue said proudly,

That makes a lot of sense, but it always makes Qin Yang feel a bit bitter inside.

"Besides, I have Du Li and you— that's already enough, so they don't matter anymore."

Hearing Su Nuan Yue say that, Qin Yang showed a smile.

He stroked her soft hair and said, "You're right— you still have us."

"Come on, let's wait for them to come beg us."

Su Nuan Yue said.

Qin Yang showed a smile.

Teaming up with smart people is truly very reassuring.

Even if I don't say it, the other person knows what I intend.

He never intended not to save people.

Just as Su Nuan Yue said, wait for them to come ask us for help.

The two returned home.

"How could I have been poisoned?"

Su Nuan Yue couldn't help but say.

Qin Yang chuckled and said, "You haven't been poisoned."

Su Nuan Yue was stunned.

She immediately realized.

If everyone else were poisoned but she wasn't,

then Su Qiang would likely push all the blame onto her, and the situation would be thrown into chaos.

And since Qin Yang said Su Nuan Yue was also poisoned, even if Su Qiang tried to deny it, it would be impossible.

If she were to say Su Nuan Yue wasn't poisoned, it would definitely be her doing.

In that situation, whether she speaks or not no longer matters.

Du Li felt a bit strange and asked, "What poisoning?"

Su Nuan Yue explained the whole thing.

Immediately, Du Li flew into a rage.

"That bunch of beasts from the Su Family— Su Qiang treated you like that, and yet they still refuse to punish her; I really want to go beat them to death."

Seeing Du Li's angry expression, Su Nuan Yue couldn't help but laugh.

It's not like nobody cares about me, right?

At least, Du Li and Qin Yang by my side care about me.

Just then, Su Zhonghai was pushed in from outside, looking embarrassed.

He said to Du Li, "Xiao Li, don't drag me into your scolding; I can get angry—I've already fallen out with them, and I'll make them punish Su Qiang, that beast."

Saying this, Su Zhonghai gritted his teeth.

Du Li, however, was not polite at all, saying directly, "You're not good to the miss either."

Su Zhonghai himself admits this.

He said in a deep voice, "I know, so I've changed—from now on, Nuan Yue is my most beloved daughter; whoever dares to bully my daughter, I'll fight them to the death."

Hearing him say that, Su Nuan Yue's expression improved a little.

"Qin Yang, first detoxify my father."

"Mm."

Qin Yang didn't object either.

Others can skip detox, but Su Zhonghai cannot.

If Su Zhonghai were still his old self, Qin Yang would surely not bother with him.

But now Su Zhonghai has clearly changed.

Qin Yang naturally won't do that again.

He had Su Zhonghai come over.

Su Zhonghai came forward honestly to stand before Qin Yang.

Qin Yang grabbed Su Zhonghai's wrist, then circulated his true qi, sending it rushing in.

After a moment, Su Zhonghai felt his whole body lighten, and he instantly felt much more relaxed.

"All done."

Qin Yang said.

"All done?"

Su Zhonghai was somewhat surprised.

Just by gripping his wrist, the poison was neutralized?

Even in TV dramas, they wouldn't dare portray it like this.

Qin Yang said, "This poison has no antidote; to neutralize it, one must use great power to directly refine the poison. Although Zhang Xin and the others have good medical skills, they lack martial arts, so they cannot do it, and even martial artists lacking sufficient strength cannot either."

Su Zhonghai knew Qin Yang was formidable, likely a martial artist.

Hearing his words, Su Zhonghai finally felt relieved.

"What about the others?"

Su Zhonghai asked.

Qin Yang said calmly, "As for the others, it's up to them to choose—whether to protect Su Qiang or to survive. If they choose to protect Su Qiang and neglect their own bodies, I won't stop them, after all, you are family."

Su Zhonghai immediately understood Qin Yang's meaning—how to handle this isn't up to Qin Yang, but to them.

Anyway, Qin Yang's terms have already been laid out.
