Chapter 169 I Missed You So Much (1)
With Su Mingwei's status and background, no one ever dared to hinder him in the streets of Chang'an City. The doting of his parents raised him to be a defiant child, and when he grew up seemed to have inherited ninety-nine percent of his father's lasciviousness.
Su Mingwei has countless chambermaids, but he liked picking out beauties on the streets, and obtained great pleasure at the commotion of this forced plundering.
He remained tyrannical his whole life, when at the age of fourteen, he encountered the first hurdle of his life.
That hurdle was Chi Jingxi.
Back then Chi Jingxi seldom lived in Chang'an, but spent most of his time in Chaoge. For the most part, there were only a few concubines and their children in the Marquis' Mansion in Chang'an. Marquis Anhuai loved to take Chi Jingxi to Chaoge, and whenever they went, they stayed there for at least half a year.
However that year, the Madam of the Marquis' Mansion was ill and couldn't travel around, thus Marquis Anhuai stayed in Chang'an. Worried about his mother's illness, he also came back. By coincidence, Chang'ans’ Academies were closed for vacation, so all of the students were sent home.
Su Mingwei took a fancy on a concubine-borned daughter from a small family on the streets, and became entangled with her, but it just happened that the girl's elder brother had some friendly relations with Chi Jingxi.
When he saw Su Mingwei forcibly holding the girl's hand on the street, the young Chi Jingxi didn’t hold back his disgust and directly beat up Su Mingwei in public. He twisted Su Mingwei’s left hand and inflicted so much damage on his face that it became as swollen as a pig's head. That single beating caused him to lay in bed, recuperating for more than half a month.
Su Mingwei had never suffered such a grievance in his life, so he was screaming in his bed that Chi Jingxi would pay with his life. Those cusses soon spread out and the Emperor immediately condemned the Su Residence for it. An imperial decree was issued, demoting his father from a Minister to a Deputy Minister, and grounded Su Mingwei from leaving the Su Residence for six months.
Even though Su Mingwei's father usually spoiled Su Mingwei, he actually hit him for the first time because of this incident.=
Su Mingwei despised Chi Jingxi to the core, but at the same time, he also understood that Chi Jingxi was not to be provoked, otherwise the entire Su Residence would suffer.
So when he held the round jade tablet in his hand, Su Mingwei’s legs softened, almost having trouble holding himself together.
Wen Yantong struggled, "Let me go!"
His two lackeys still hadn’t realized anything, so when they saw her struggling, they said fiercely, "Stay still! Otherwise, you will suffer!"
Su Mingwei immediately ordered, "Quick! Let her go!"
Those two were very surprised, a little hesitant. "Young Master Su, but..."
Su Mingwei yelled angrily, "Hurry up and release her! Are you stupid or something?!"
Wen Yantong was immediately freed. With a face void of emotions, she shook her sleeves that were messed up from the struggling just now and stated, "Please give back my item, Young Master Su."
Su Mingwei took this chance to inquire, "Let me ask you, where did you get this item from?"
Wen Yantong answered, "Of course its owner gave it to me."
"How is it possible?!" He exclaimed, "This is an identifying jade tablet usually worn on the waist!"
"If Young Master Su doesn't believe me, you can come with me to ask its owner." Wen Yantong said, "But for now, I advise you to return it back to me, otherwise if the owner of this jade tablet finds out..."
Su Mingwei hesitated, and after much consideration, an ugly smile appeared on his pale's face. "Young lady, I am an old acquaintance with the owner of this jade tablet. It would be better if you had taken it out sooner, it turns out we are from the same circle."
He rewrapped the jade tablet into the brocade handkerchief, and handed it to Wen Yantong. "Keep it well."
Wen Yantong smiled after receiving the jade token. "It turned out to be an old acquaintance, what a misunderstanding."
Su Mingwei nodded happily. "Indeed, indeed. It's all a misunderstanding!"
"Then my older cousin..." She looked worriedly at the man collapsed on the ground.
Su Mingwei kicked the man beside him. "Why hadn’t you helped the girl's cousin up yet!"
The two men couldn’t comprehend how the situation changed so drastically, but after seeing the sudden change in Su Mingwei's attitude, they knew that the jade pendant was not something trivial. So the man immediately helped Wang Qin, who had fallen to the ground and was a lightheaded, to his feet.
Seeing that he was beaten badly, Wen Yantong walked up to him anxiously and patted his face. "Second Elder Cousin! Second Elder Cousin, can you hear me?!"
Wang Qin’s whole body was in severe pain. He opened his eyes with difficulty and said weakly, "Younger cousin, hurry up, don't let Bastard Su catch you..."
Su Mingwei’s eyelids twitched with anger, but with Wen Yantong by his side, he didn't dare burst out. Instead he said, "It seems that he is seriously injured, I immediately asked for the boat to be docked in advance so he can see a doctor."
Wen Yantong sighed, "That's the only way to go, I’ve troubled you Young Master Su."
Su Mingwei smiled superficially, "No trouble, no trouble at all."
He acted upon his words immediately after; the boat only recently left ashore, so it landed very quickly.
When Wang Qin was helped off the boat, the surrounding people on shore loudly gasped. Su Mingwei disembarked right after him and ordered his servants waiting on the shore to send Wang Qin to the doctor. The scene caused many people to gather and crowd around the commotion.
However this noisy situation quickly subsided.
Su Mingwei originally wanted to slip away as soon as he got off the boat, so he had someone delay Wen Yantong on the boat. But he didn't expect that the person, who he didn't even want to meet in his dreams, would be standing nearby.
When Wen Yantong finally disembarked the boat, she saw that there were many people standing around. Not to mention the numerous servants and guards, there were also many noble young masters and ladies spectating. The most conspicuous person in the crowd was Chi Jingxi.
Wen Yantong was overjoyed, and all of her flustered emotions calmed down at this moment. She wished to greet him immediately as if they were in Chaoge, but with too many people around watching, she didn't dare to act rashly.
Wen Yantong was just a student of Songhai Academy in Chaoge, but in Chang'an, she represented the entire Wen Household, and every move should be made after great consideration.
Nethertheless, if this matter with Su Mingwei was properly settled out, Wen Yantong knew this would bother her for many nights to come.
She stood on the side and looked at Chi Jingxi with the same eyes as everyone else, hoping that he could read her thoughts.
As a matter of fact, Chi Jingxi naturally saw through it. Ever since he watched Wang Qin being dragged off the boat, Chi Jingxi had an inclination that something might have happened to Wen Yantong. Then, when Su Mingwei came down and shouted to send Wang Qin to see a doctor, Chi Jingxi had already deduced approximately what had happened.
The abyss in his black eyes darkened. Chi Jingxi raised his hand to beckon Wen Yantong over. "Come here."
In that instance, everyone turned to look at Wen Yantong, each with varying thoughts.
