Su Han calmly glanced at her mother. She didn't say anything but she didn't move from her spot either. Her stance was clear as the day; she didn't trust her mother and didn't wish to discuss the matter with her in private either.
"You—" Master Su was furious when he saw how unmoved Su Han was acting. It was her good luck that they were willing to talk with her but she dared to show such a long face to them.
But before he could say anything, he was pinched on the neck by Madam Su, who warned him with her eyes. Only then did Master Su restrain himself; however, he still felt angry and upset. Ever since he was a child, he had never been wronged like this before.
Even when he fell in love with Madam Su and wanted to marry her, her mother and sisters worked hard to drag Su Han's father and his family down and pushed him to the position of the official husband. Even his daughter, who was originally the result of an affair, turned into the well-respected daughter of the Su family, while Su Han became the daughter of the bed servant who was later pushed out.
Everything had gone as per his wishes but now that the situation was like this, Master Su was having a hard time coming to an understanding with his situation. He wanted to scold but the setting didn't allow him to.
He could only chew his tongue, feeling stifled. Tonight was supposed to be a great victory for his daughter; he even prepared so many things to make sure that Su Han wouldn't be able to sneak inside. All of that went to the gutter!
Master Su was angry and Su Qing was even more angry. She was the princess of the Su family and she had never suffered a loss like this. She ignored the subtle glares of her mother and she also ignored the announcement of the Queen's arrival.
With her finger raised in the air, she haughtily scolded Su Han, "I am telling you, Su Han—don't even think about using this incident to come back to the family. You are nothing but a bastard. Do you think that if you invent something useful, you are better than me? No!"
"Even if you continue inventing new things, you will still be suppressed by me. You are destined to be my stepping stone! Don't try to reach for things that don't belong to you."
"Its your good luck that I am even willing to use your invention."
Mother Su wanted to stop her daughter but she was still a step too late. She closed her eyes with a defeated expression on her face; she knew that this time she was going to be ruined.
"Who is so bold to say such words in front of us?" Fu Beichou stared at the woman in front of her. She knew that Su Qing was quite arrogant but she never thought that her arrogance reached such a level where she would say such bold words.
She stole someone else's credit and even said that the victim should be thankful to her?
Su Qing never expected she would be caught by Fu Beichou. She panicked and turned around to see the queen standing at the raised platform and looking at her with a cold gaze.
"Your highness—"
