"Phew, it's a misunderstanding, that's good! My elder brother might look cold on the outside, but he's definitely a good person!"
Lin Shuai Nan suddenly appeared from somewhere.
Su Shan He glanced at Lin Shuai Nan's attire, his brows immediately furrowed, and he looked at Xiu Xiu with confusion.
"Uh, Big Brother, don't mind him, he's just a lunatic!"
Xiu Xiu explained flusteredly. She didn't know why she had brought Lin Shuai Nan home on impulse.
Lin Shuai Nan grinned, stepped up to Su Shan He, grabbed his hand, and said enthusiastically, "Haha, hello brother-in-law! Let me introduce myself, my name is Lin Shuai Nan, and I'm Xiu Xiu's boyfriend! Hehe, I'm just visiting, and I haven't brought any decent gifts. What do you think of this jade pendant?"
Su Shan He was a bit bewildered by Lin Shuai Nan's enthusiastic self-introduction. He looked down and found something already placed in his hand.
It was a jade stone that looked like it had a very good texture, a Pixiu in positive green, attracting wealth and treasure.
"You're Xiu Xiu's boyfriend?" Su Shan He asked, putting down the jade stone, his brow furrowed in doubt.
He naturally cared a lot about his sister's lifelong happiness!
Especially now that their grandfather was critically injured and dying.
As the sole heir of the Su family, it was truly unfilial for him not to have married before his grandfather's death!
Therefore, Lin Shuai Nan's appearance gave Su Shan He a glimmer of surprise.
Although Lin Shuai Nan's image was unconventional, he seemed like a good person.
If his sister Xiu Xiu could get married before their grandfather's death, it would be very comforting.
After all, their grandfather, with his eccentric temper, had always doted on Xiu Xiu the most since childhood.
"Haha, that's right, I am Xiu Xiu's boyfriend! Brother-in-law, please don't be polite, accept the gift! Don't worry, I will definitely treat Xiu Xiu very well! I will protect her with my life!"
Lin Shuai Nan laughed, then solemnly patted his chest, looking like a reliable guy.
Xiu Xiu's face turned extremely red. Facing Su Shan He's gaze, she nervously shook her head, "Brother, don't listen to him, there's something wrong with him!"
But the more Xiu Xiu explained, the redder her face became.
Su Shan He just glanced at her and showed a relieved smile. He turned back and nodded heavily at Lin Shuai Nan:
"Good! Shuai Nan, I entrust my sister to you! Now that Grandpa's life is uncertain, if his end is truly near, I hope you can marry Xiu Xiu as soon as possible to comfort Grandpa!"
"Brother, what are you talking about?"
Xiu Xiu's pretty face turned even redder. She never would have believed that everything Lin Shuai Nan had said in the car earlier had come true!
Her elder brother actually wanted her to marry Lin Shuai Nan quickly!
But thinking of her grandfather's severe injuries and impending death, Xiu Xiu couldn't care about anything else.
"Brother, let's not talk about this for now, hurry and take me to see Grandpa!"
"Alright! Coincidentally, Father is also here. Today, we'll bring Shuai Nan to see Father," Su Shan He replied, even pulling Lin Shuai Nan along!
The few people hurried in.
Yang Fei and Tang Ru stood behind Ling Feng, somewhat dumbfounded.
"This Lin Shuai Nan is truly incredible, to have stumbled into such a beautiful and wealthy wife for free!"
Yang Fei muttered enviously.
Tang Ru gave a wry smile and shook her head, "I have to admit, he's really crazy! Everything he said in the car came true, and he's being pushed to get married on his first visit home!"
Ling Feng couldn't laugh at all. With a cold face, he quickly followed.
The clues that Su Xing Yan could provide were very important to Ling Feng.
If the other party was indeed trying to silence them, this alone was enough to prove Ling Feng's suspicions!
"Xiu Xiu, you see, I told you earlier that we need to get married soon. Alas, it's fortunate that I was mentally prepared in the car. I'll call home now and have my mother send the betrothal gifts!"
Lin Shuai Nan kept muttering as he walked.
"Brother-in-law, how much is the bride price for our Su family? I don't have much personal assets. How about ten billion? Is that okay?"
Su Shan He almost stumbled. Ten billion for a bride price? Was that something a person would say?
But he quickly nodded at Lin Shuai Nan, "Enough, enough!"
"Sister, Shuai Nan truly loves you. Your marriage, Big Brother fully supports it!"
Xiu Xiu didn't have the mood to listen to Lin Shuai Nan's nonsense, but the amount of ten billion for the bride price from Lin Shuai Nan genuinely moved Xiu Xiu inexplicably.
Did this guy really want to marry her?
In this day and age, there were many people who wanted to sleep with you, but very few who wanted to sleep with you for a lifetime!
"Brother, let's not talk about this for now, I need to confirm Grandpa's injuries first!"
"What is the condition of Elder Su's injuries?"
Ling Feng also inquired.
Even though he knew Ling Feng was not the person from before, Su Shan He still felt a strange sense of apprehension and wariness towards Ling Feng!
"Mr. Ling, what business do you have with my grandfather?"
Ling Feng hesitated slightly, then said in a deep voice, "My elder brother's corpse was stolen by someone skilled in witchcraft and蛊术 (Gu techniques) from Southern Yunnan! I am here to seek clues. The Su family is a Gu sect family, deeply rooted in Southern Yunnan, and I believe you must know who in Southern Yunnan is skilled in witchcraft and Gu techniques!" xxs1
Su Shan He's steps paused slightly. He looked at Ling Feng deeply and saw that Ling Feng didn't seem to be lying.
Only then did he shake his head and say, "I'm afraid this will disappoint Mr. Ling. Although our Su family is a Gu sect family, Grandpa often said that those who practice witchcraft and Gu techniques mostly meet a bad end! Therefore, by my generation, we have rarely come into contact with witchcraft and Gu techniques!"
"Even my father and Xiu Xiu only have a superficial understanding of witchcraft and Gu techniques!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng's expression became even more somber.
Yang Fei couldn't help but ask, "So, does that mean we can only get some clues after Elder Su's injuries are healed?"
Su Shan He took a deep breath and nodded, "If you can heal my grandfather's injuries, even if Grandpa doesn't tell you, I, Su Shan He, will tell you everything you want to know!"
As he said this, Su Shan He's eyes turned bloodshot.
"Even if I have to turn Southern Yunnan upside down, I will find those people!"
"Elder Hua is a divine doctor, please invite him..." Yang Fei said hurriedly.
But as soon as he spoke, Su Shan He shook his head, "My father has already contacted Elder Hua, and Elder Hua should be arriving soon. I hope it's not too late!"
I hope it's not too late?
This last sentence made everyone's hearts tighten!
Everyone's footsteps involuntarily quickened.
"Father, Father, why did you leave like this! Your son is unfilial!"
As soon as they reached the old man's courtyard, they heard the sound of mournful crying from within.
