The Invincible Supreme Medical God-Chapter 157 - 156: You Actually Want Me to Beg You?

...

Su Jian’an oversees the family, while Xiao Wan manages the finances. The uncle and niece duo have always worked in harmony, dividing their responsibilities effectively.

Unfortunately, Yan Xiaobao’s sudden appearance placed Xiao Wan almost entirely at odds with the entire Su Family.

Previously, apart from Su Jingming, who remained neutral, every member of the Su Family opposed Xiao Wan’s "unauthorized" decision to marry Yan Xiaobao, refusing to acknowledge the marriage. After Yan Xiaobao beat Su Jinpeng and Ma Boyao in front of Su Jingming, even Jingming began leaning toward the opposition, harboring strong disdain for Xiaobao.

As the patriarch of the Su Family, Su Jian’an prioritized the family’s interests and future above all else, making him Xiaobao’s staunchest adversary.

Who was Xiao Wan? She was Jiangnan’s first beauty, a financial prodigy, and the Su Family’s cherished gem.

With her family background, looks, and talent, even the eldest son of Beijing’s most prestigious household would have been a suitable match. Marrying Yan Xiaobao—an impulsive young man from who-knows-where—was nothing short of squandering resources and a travesty!

"Xiao Wan, we can discuss matters between you and Yan Xiaobao later. For now, could we have him cure Ma Boyao’s injuries first?" Su Jian’an softened his tone, trying to sound as amicable as he usually did when speaking with Xiao Wan.

"My husband isn’t someone who can be dismissed with a few casual words, you know." Xiao Wan emphasized the word "husband," adding pointedly, "He generally doesn’t kill easily, but once he decides to, there’s almost no saving the person. So you might want to inform Ma Jinjue that he should start making preparations for his son’s funeral."

"Xiao Wan, you know this is something that could be resolved with just one word from you. If Ma Boyao really dies, it’s bad for you, for Yan Xiaobao, and for both the Su and Ma families. Why must you go to such extremes?" Su Jian’an kept trying to reason with her.

"My husband has never cared about benefits when he does things." Xiao Wan smiled faintly, her tone easing, "If Ma Jinjue doesn’t want to see his son die, he should come and plead with me."

"Xiao Wan!" Anger briefly flickered in Su Jian’an’s eyes before he composed himself again. "Ma Jinjue has already made it clear: as long as nothing happens to Ma Boyao, he won’t hold a grudge and won’t trouble Yan Xiaobao anymore. But is it really necessary to ask the dignified Binhai Prefect to beg you personally? Isn’t that going too far?"

"It is quite excessive." Xiao Wan sneered playfully, "Since you’re here personally pleading on Ma Jinjue’s behalf, you might as well do it for him instead."

"Xiao Wan, I’m your uncle, and you’re asking me to plead with you?" At this point, even Su Jian’an’s patience started wearing thin.

Su Jian’an sought out Xiao Wan because he didn’t want the Su Family to be dragged down by Xiao Wan and Yan Xiaobao, severing ties with the Ma family. However, him begging? As the Vice Governor of Jiangnan, that was simply unthinkable.

"Uncle, you’re a smart man who watched me grow up, so you know I’m not someone ungrateful or rebellious." Xiao Wan flashed a charming smile. "My intention isn’t genuinely for Uncle to humble himself to me."

Su Jian’an understood Xiao Wan’s goal: to use this incident to force the Su Family to accept Yan Xiaobao. However, from his perspective, allowing Xiao Wan to marry Xiaobao posed a much greater loss than cutting ties with the Ma family.

If Xiao Wan were willing to follow his arrangements for an alliance marriage, Su Jian’an was confident he could pick a strong candidate from one of Beijing’s top families to establish a robust connection. With that, the Ma family’s background in Beijing would be trivial.

"Like I said, your matter with Yan Xiaobao could be discussed at another time, in a closed-door meeting among family members. Right now, the priority is saving Ma Boyao. Dragging this out further will lead to irreparable consequences!" Su Jian’an deployed a stalling tactic, deflecting the issue.

"It’s just the Ma family. What’s there to be afraid of? Even if the entire sky were to collapse over this, at worst, it’d result in mutual destruction." Xiao Wan resisted Su Jian’an’s stall strategy. She was in a commanding position, so she was determined to push Su Jian’an to concede and recognize Xiaobao as the "Su Family’s son-in-law."

"Xiao Wan, don’t forget—you are also part of the Su Family. If the Su Family suffers or falls, what good will it do you? What you’re doing—is this fair to Grandpa, who loved you most?"

Su Jian’an stood up impatiently. "If the Ma family comes after the Su Family, you’ll be the first target!"

"If Grandpa were still alive... he’d definitely support me and accept Xiaobao too." Xiao Wan’s eyes sparkled with nostalgia. Then, she smiled with renewed confidence, "If the Ma family targets me, my husband will protect me. Actually, if the Su Family accepts Xiaobao, he could protect all of us here as well."

Seeing Xiao Wan steadfastly clinging to Yan Xiaobao like she was under a spell, Su Jian’an had no alternative but to compromise. "Alright, I alone can’t make decisions about whether the Su Family accepts Yan Xiaobao. What I can promise you now is: I won’t publicly lead any opposition against this anymore. Is that enough for you now?"

"Fine." Xiao Wan knew this was Su Jian’an’s bottom line. Achieving this result was already within her expectations. "Uncle, you can now inform Ma Jinjue that as long as he behaves himself, his son’s life can be spared."

...

"Ding dong!"

For the first time, the doorbell rang outside Yan Xiaobao and Tiantian’s love nest.

"Who’s there?" Xiaobao’s tone was filled with irritation, thinking it was Zhang Zhixue or Zhang Hongde coming to plead for Ma Boyao again.

But when he opened the door and saw who it was, his annoyed expression instantly turned into pure joy.

"Wife Xiao Wan!" Xiaobao’s face lit up as he spun the soft and delicate Xiao Wan around multiple times before carrying her into the house. "What brings you here?"

"I heard my husband was hiding away a beauty here, so I came by to check things out." Xiao Wan replied sweetly, smiling gently. "Am I interrupting? Not welcome?"

"Wife Xiao Wan, if you say something like that, do you want me to spank you?" Xiaobao teased, playfully patting Xiao Wan’s soft, bouncy bottom, enjoying the sensation immensely.

"Husband..." Xiao Wan blushed instantly, pouting as she broke away from his embrace, "I came by especially to visit you and Tiantian. Don’t act like this... People will think something improper!"

"We’re all family here, what does it matter?" Xiaobao chuckled, pulling Xiao Wan back into his arms and planting a heavy kiss on her rosy lips. He then shouted upstairs, "Wife Tiantian, come down quickly! Rourou is here—let me introduce you two!"
