Ye Lingbai gritted his teeth. He knew he wasn't Su Xinlan's match, not in terms of his father's favor or his current standing in the household.
But he would not back down.
Looking Su Xinlan straight in the eye, he said firmly, "Even if Father punishes me, I will never let you harm Dr. Su and her sister. Even if I am expelled from the Marquis's Manor, I will have no regrets!"
"Such noble spirit!" Su Xinlan sneered. There was a hint of mockery in her eyes.
A straightforward person, no matter how spirited, was useless!
She waved her hand decisively. "Men, throw Su Yingxue and Su Miaoyan out of the manor. They have disturbed my sister's rest. From now on, they are not to set foot in this courtyard and disturb my sister's recovery!"
Ye Lingbai could hold a saber to the steward's throat, but he couldn't kill all the household servants and guards Su Xinlan had brought with her.
