"Shen Xuezhi met Fu Bing a few days ago," Su Nǚ said. "I overheard the Fourth Young Master telling the Eldest Young Master he wants to help Fu Bing overturn her case. If we cause trouble for Shen Xuezhi, the Fourth Young Master probably won't have time to focus on Fu Bing's case."
The Su matriarch said angrily, "What on earth is so charming about Fu Bing that she's got everyone in our family so utterly bewitched?"
Even the normally composed and self-possessed Su Junxian was drawn to her.
"It might be because Fu Bing possesses excellent medical skills," Su Nǚ continued. "The Master, Madam, and the five Young Masters don't lack money or fame. What they fear most is death. Having a good relationship with Fu Bing could significantly reduce their risk of dying from illness."
A chill ran through the Su matriarch's heart. For their own survival, they refuse to let Fu Bing come save me when I'm critically ill.
"Madam..." Su Nǚ couldn't bear to see her distress.
