Chapter 72: My Wife, Who Dare to Touch?

Yan Laotaiye headed straight for Yan Moci's room as soon as he went upstairs, seeing the servant standing at the door.

He asked in an unsteady voice: "What's going on? Xiao Wang."

Auntie Wang's face was full of panic: "Old sir, the eldest young master, the eldest young master has stopped breathing!"

Yan Huaian staggered backward upon hearing this, and Liu Guanjia, exerting all his strength, barely managed to steady him, whereupon he hurriedly said:

"Old sir, you must take care of your health!"

Yan Huaian's lips were pressed tight; after catching his breath, he asked: "What's the situation now?"

Auntie Wang said: "The family doctor inside is administering emergency treatment to the young master."

Yan Huaian's chest heaved violently, and he asked: "Who had entered the young master's room before that?"

Auntie Wang thought for a moment, her face showing some hesitation.

Yan Huaian snapped: "I'm asking you a question!"

Auntie Wang closed her eyes, then said: "Replying to the old sir, apart from the eldest daughter-in-law, no one else has entered the eldest young master's room today."

Yan Huaian froze completely: "You mean, it's Xiyan?"

Auntie Wang also looked unwilling to believe, she nodded and said: "Yes."

Yan Huaian closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his whole person was filled with a murderous aura.

He gritted his teeth and said: "Send Moci immediately to the Yan Clan's hospital, allowing no slip whatsoever."

"As for that Su Xiyan, bring her here at once! I want to question her personally!"

Liu Guanjia felt somewhat reluctant: "Yan Laotaiye, I think the eldest daughter-in-law wouldn't...."

Yan Huaian turned his head toward Liu Guanjia with a sinister look: "Little Liu, have you also forgotten your place?"

Liu Guanjia nodded fearfully, not daring to speak again.

Everyone watched as Yan Moci lay on the hospital bed being taken away, an oxygen mask over his mouth, while the doctor continued to administer emergency treatment.

In the panic, everyone's faces grew dark and indistinct, making them hard to discern.

As Yan Moci disappeared down the end of the road, Yan Huaian gave a grim order:

"Return to the hall."

Seeing Yan Huaian truly enraged, Liu Huanyu and Yan Zi Xin at the side lowered their heads covertly, the corners of their mouths curling into a strange arc.

"Su Xiyan! As an illegitimate daughter, you dare to show me such disrespect!"

"Do you have any idea how many women of higher birth than you in your Su family, in Jingcheng, would fawn over me like dogs?"

"It's rare that I find you somewhat attractive and take a liking to you, yet you turn out to be so ungrateful!"

"I will definitely not let you off today!"

After Zhang Chengye finally managed to stand up, relying on the many security guards here, his speech became increasingly arrogant.

He looked at Su Xiyan with a lewd smile: "However, if you are willing to sincerely apologize to me and serve me comfortably,

"Perhaps I could even intercede for you with my grandfather, so that you might leave a whole corpse!"

Su Xiyan tilted her head and asked Zhang Chengye: "From what you're saying, am I doomed to die today?"

Zhang Chengye laughed arrogantly: "You probably don't know what position my cousin holds in my grandfather's heart; today something happened to him."

"If it's nothing, fine; but if there really is something, you'll die without even a coffin!"

Su Xiyan raised an eyebrow: "Oh, is that so?"

Soon, she looked at Zhang Chengye, just as he thought she had finally been frightened and was about to bow her head to him.

Su Xiyan suddenly tugged at the corner of her mouth: "Anyway, we're going to die, so we might as well live it up once."

Saying this, Su Xiyan boldly walked toward Zhang Chengye, casually picking up a vase placed aside, and with a "bang!" smashed it onto his head.

Before Zhang Chengye could react, he fainted from the intense pain, his eyes rolling back.

The surrounding bodyguards, stunned by Su Xiyan's sudden move, froze in place.

She coldly curled the corner of her mouth: "Since we're headed for mutual destruction, I've long despised you, you little bastard."

"Why not seize the moment to repay grudges and settle scores?"

Having said that, Su Xiyan coldly threw the shards of the vase from her hand onto Zhang Chengye's body, glancing at him askance as if looking at a dog.

"Chengye! Su Xiyan! You didn't just lay violent hands on Moci, you dare to do this to my son!"

"I will certainly make you die today!"

Yan Zi Xin's voice rang out, making the atmosphere in the hall even more tense and ready to explode.

As Su Xiyan turned her head, she happened to see the hospital bed carrying Yan Moci being pushed past her; seeing his gaunt face lying there, her heart clenched tightly.

Just as she was about to step forward, Auntie Wang, who had always attended to her and Yan Moci, suddenly shouted angrily:

"Eldest daughter-in-law! Why are you harming the eldest young master!"

"At this moment, are you approaching the eldest young master to commit further misconduct?"

Upon hearing Auntie Wang's words, Su Xiyan's expression suddenly changed; she frowned slightly, her gaze toward Auntie Wang carrying a hint of hesitation.

And when her peripheral vision caught something, Su Xiyan's expression suddenly became clear..

Faced with Auntie Wang's scolding for not letting her near Yan Moci, Su Xiyan's eyes shifted and she suddenly looked on the verge of tears, saying:

"Auntie Wang, how could you think of me this way?"

"I have been painstakingly caring for Yan Moci; how could I possibly harm him?"

Auntie Wang gave a cold snort: "Eldest daughter-in-law, this is merely your one-sided account!"

"Don't think I don't know; I've already seen you sneaking into the eldest young master's study several times."

"Each time you claimed it was for online shopping, but I simply don't believe it!"

"I suspect you married into the Yan family with ulterior motives, besides being forced!"

"Perhaps you are plotting to seize the Yan family's property!"

Having been forced to wear such a big hat, Su Xiyan wept even more bitterly,

"Aunt Wang, you really misunderstood me, I was originally just an illegitimate daughter of the Su Family, from childhood I was ignorant and untalented, and also a country bumpkin who grew up in the countryside."

"Grandfather treats me this well, it lets me feel the warmth of family; I should be grateful, how could I possibly have such overreaching thoughts?"

Aunt Wang scoffed, "Eldest daughter-in-law, saying more is useless; you should go explain these to Grandfather yourself!"

As she spoke, Aunt Wang was about to leave Yan Moci's sickbed.

Watching her hurried figure trying to leave together, Su Xiyan's eyes drooped, as if a gloom was swirling within.

Just as Yan Moci's figure disappeared at the doorway, Su Xiyan heard from behind the extremely cold voice of Yan Zi Xin:

"Someone, beat Su Xiyan to death."

Just as Yan Zi Xin's words fell, the already empty doorway suddenly transmitted a sound.

A voice like that from an abyss, wanton and cold:

"Oh? I'd like to see who dares to touch my wife."
