Chapter 2594: Chapter 2595: Return to Tianyun (161)

"Isn’t Aunt Zhou going to take the blame? What’s your hurry?" Wan Banyan was unconcerned.

Taoming Hai saw disaster looming, yet Wan Banyan was still so nonchalant, that he angrily gave Wan Banyan a hard slap: "Aunt Zhou, in her foolishness, has already killed herself during the arson! Why on earth would she start a fire? And then kill herself? Do you really think her death leaves no trace? The King and his people won’t be so easily fooled! King Jing is already combing through the Imperial City, trying to arrest Aunt Zhou’s family for interrogation! Once they search my house and find Aunt Zhou’s family, will you and I still be able to live?!"

Only then did Wan Banyan’s face turn pale.

Immediately, she cried and asked, "Husband, what do we do, husband? I don’t want to die, husband, I—"

Before she could finish, Taoming Hai interrupted her harshly: "You’re asking me what to do? I should be asking you! When you had that terrible idea, wasn’t your brain working just fine? Saying we should burn those two alive, now use your brains! I’m going to be killed by you!"

Wan Banyan sobbed while protesting, "How is this only my fault, didn’t you agree to it too?"

Taoming Hai immediately started smashing things, "I must have been possessed to listen to you and do this! I was actually doing quite well, as long as I didn’t make mistakes, my father would protect me, and even though Su Xin is a Princess, she would still look favorably on me because of my father! I just had to bear it, life wouldn’t be too difficult, but now look! Great! We’re going to die, are you happy now!"

It was they themselves who wanted to end their own lives, Taoming Hai was filled with regret now, regretting why he did it.

There was no way Wan Banyan would be happy, she was almost going to die. But she didn’t regret doing it one bit, she was only angry and afraid, angry that Aunt Zhou could just die like that, she should have at least made up an excuse to take the blame before dying!

As for fear, she was afraid of death; she didn’t want to die at all.

...

Although the Tao Mansion was sealed, with no one allowed to enter or exit, Su Changyi and An Jing were the King and Queen, who would dare stop them? So, Su Changyi and An Jing just walked into the Tao Mansion.

Upon seeing Su Changyi and An Jing arrive, Tao Chengyin and the others hurriedly knelt down and greeted: "Long live the King, long live the Queen."

Su Changyi and An Jing were anxious to go inside and see the situation, so they ignored them and went straight into the room.

As soon as Su Xin saw her parents, she broke down crying again: "Father, Mother, my husband..."

"Good child, don’t cry." An Jing quickly hugged her, wiped her tears, and comforted her to stop crying.

Looking towards the bed, she saw Taoming Ye’s back horribly burned, being treated by Su Yixing. The sight of the bloody mess was so distressing that An Jing couldn’t bear to look, focusing on consoling her daughter.

Su Changyi walked to the bedside, and seeing how seriously injured Taoming Ye was, his face darkened.

Taoming Ye’s poison was still unresolved and his body was extremely weak, and it was uncertain if he could survive this ordeal.

Su Yixing treated Taoming Ye’s wound for quite some time before finishing, and didn’t dare to dress Taoming Ye or cover him, leaving him lying there with his back exposed.

Medication was applied to his back, stopping the bleeding, but the wound was terrifying, providing an overwhelming visual impact.

Su Xin couldn’t bear to look; seeing it would make her cry. She hadn’t cried before, but with her parents’ arrival, her vulnerability was fully exposed.
