They must be on their nerves these days, not a single mistake can be made, lest their house's Queen would lose her temper, but now, just one day later, everything was blossoming. They simply couldn't believe it.
Bai Xue's habit was to browse the newspaper while at work every day and today's paper was unusually clean, with no news about her.
This made her good mood even better.
Given what happened yesterday, it would be impossible for there to be no news about her today. There was only one explanation—someone helped her deal with the media.
That person, she believed, was none other than her awkward husband, Mr. Su.
She took a picture frame out of the drawer. It was a photograph of her and Su Yan from their childhood, the only picture of them together.
"Mr. Su, is that you? If it's you, please continue..."
An autumn breeze swept through, causing the golden ginkgo leaves to flutter in the sky.
Su Dongkun was reading today's newspaper while tapping his hand on the rosewood table.
"Master, Young Master Sun ordered the media not to report any news about him and Young Mistress Sun, threatening to shut them down." That's why today's paper was so clean.
The answer was within Su Dongkun's expectations. In Jin City, aside from him, only his darling grandson had the ability to do that.
"Bai Xue has some guts. She was able to get Yan, who despised her so much, to do things for her secretly in such a short time."
The butler remained silent. The master's words put him in a dilemma whether to agree or not; remaining silent was the best stratagem.
"This makes me very uncomfortable." Su Dongkun's undisguised words made the butler cough lightly.
"What does the master plan to...?"
Su Dongkun gave a grim smile.
Mama Chen was there while Su Yan happened to be overseas, and he only came back to Su Family Old Mansion after Mama Chen left.
"Mr. Su, are you coming home for dinner tonight?" Bai Xue invited her beloved Mr. Su to have dinner at home.
"Are you making a special meal?" He had not eaten her cooking in a while and missed it very much.
"Anything you want!" Bai Xue improved her culinary skills significantly for him.
She allowed him to choose anything, and he didn't make things difficult for her, simply asking for some of his favorite home-cooked dishes.
By the time Su Yan got home, the food Bai Xue made was just ready to be served.
"You skipped work?" He raised his eyebrow.
" I'm the boss." How dare he call her skipping work!
"Oh, the big boss!" Su Yan joked.
"Let's eat!" Bai Xue made all of his favorite dishes.
"Why are you so kind today? Is there something wrong with the food?" Su Yan found her a bit too attentive today.
"Yes, there is. Do you dare to eat it?" Bai Xue provoked him.
"Even if it's poison, I dare to eat!" Su Yan attacked the dish.
What started as a joke between them ended up being true!
The food really had a problem. It was indeed poisoned!
Su Yan fell unconscious with foam at his mouth right after dinner while Bai Xue was perfectly fine.
At first, she thought Su Yan was joking, but when he didn't respond to her attempts to rouse him, she panicked!
She quickly called for an ambulance.
Su Yan had acute food poisoning and remained unconscious.
Naturally, such a big event alarmed Su Dongkun and Su Ruohan.
"What happened! How could Yan get poisoned when everything was fine! How on earth you are playing the role of his wife!" Su Ruohan criticized Bai Xue loudly as soon as she arrived.
Bai Xue was already very frustrated, trying to figure out what had gone wrong, how Su Yan got poisoned, and Su Ruohan was buzzing like a fly in her ears.
"Shut up!" she shot her a cold glance.
Su Ruohan was shocked into silence mid-sentence.
