Chapter 436: The Paranoid Prince in the Extra Story (16)
By the time Cheng Yan arrived at the county magistrate's mansion, Ruan Jiuchao had already finished drinking the medicine and was resting.
"Aunt, is Jiuchao okay?" Cheng Yan said to Song Qingwan with a worried look.
Song Qingwan said in a cold voice: "Jiu Chao is fine now."
"I'm sorry, auntie. I didn't take good care of Jiuchao." Cheng Yan apologized.
Song Qingwan thought for a long time and said, "Cheng Yan, do you know why Jiu Chao fell into the river?"
"I don't know. Please tell me clearly, aunt." Cheng Yan shook his head.
Song Qingwan sighed and said, “He’s your cousin.
I have heard from Jiuchao that this time your cousin and his family came to Fuzhou County ostensibly to visit relatives, but in fact they were here to discuss the marriage between your two families.
Your cousin mistakenly thought that Jiu Chao was fighting for you, so he pushed Jiu Chao into the river."
"Aunt, I...I don't know anything about this." Cheng Yan explained hurriedly: "Aunt, the only person I like is Jiu Chao. I have never considered anyone else."
He knew that this matter must be related to Zhao Kaile.
He had almost gotten Aunt Song to agree, but then this went wrong.
"As for Zhao Kaile, I will ask him to apologize to Jiuchao. I will punish him in the way he deserves. Just handle the matter impartially."
Cheng Yan paused and said, "Aunt, can I...can I see Jiuchao?"
"No need, Jiuchao is resting now." Song Qingwan refused.
Hearing Song Qingwan's answer, Cheng Yan said a little disappointedly: "Okay then."
"I'll come see him when Jiu Zhao wakes up."
"I'm leaving now, aunt."
After saying that, Cheng Yan turned and left.
When eating at night, the Ruan family has no rules of not talking while eating or sleeping.
Ruan Heng asked nervously, "Brother, what happened? What does Cheng Yan do for a living? How could he let you get hurt?"
Ruan Yu also echoed: "Chao Chao, what happened?"
Afterwards, Song Qingwan explained.
Ruan Yu angrily slammed the table and shouted, "Humph, I knew Cheng Yan was no good.
So many bad peach blossoms are not worthy of my Chao Chao.
Chao Chao, let’s find another one.”
"Dad!" When Ruan Jiuchao heard this, Jiang Zui's handsome appearance instantly came to his mind, and he was so shy that he almost buried his head in the bowl.
Song Qingwan said with a smile: "Brother Yu, Jiang Zui is here."
"Jiang Zui?!" Ruan Yu asked in surprise: "Why is he here?!"
"I just said that the person who saved Jiuchao was Jiang Zui."
Ruan Heng on the side said excitedly: "Dad, Mom, is it... is it Jiang Zui who communicated with my brother?!
He came to Fuzhou County? ! "
"Not only has he come, he's now living next door to our house."
Ruan Yu said unhappily, "I knew he had no good intentions."
"Dad, don't talk about Brother Xiaozui like that." Ruan Jiuchao said with dissatisfaction on his face.
"Okay, Chaochao, you are treating me, your father, like this just for that brat?" Ruan Yu said sadly.
Ruan Jiuchao heard this and said embarrassedly: "Dad, I...I didn't mean that."
"Humph!" Ruan Yu snorted and said, "Since you are here, why don't you come to visit?"
Still want to marry Chao Chao...is that all your sincerity? !
However, I have not forgotten my previous promise.
I can still marry his daughter Chao Chao.
Song Qingwan said: "We just arrived in Fuzhou County today and saved Jiuchao, so we have to clean up."
Ruan Heng said with a smile: "In that case, I won't go to school tomorrow. I want to see who Jiang Zui is."
After a pause, he continued, "Brother, are you... planning to marry Jiang Zui?"
As soon as these words came out, Ruan Jiuchao felt several burning gazes.
Ruan Jiuchao said embarrassedly: "This...this matter...how should I know?"
Ruan Jiuchao did not refute. Ruan Heng felt a little disappointed, thinking that there was no hope for his good brother.
But when he thought that it was because of Cheng Yan's cousin that his brother fell into the water, he felt full of resentment towards Cheng Yan.
