Chapter 193 has an ambush...

Gu Junze glanced again at Madam Feng, who was kneeling on the ground.

He then turned around, quickly followed Chu Ruohan's steps, and entered the Marquis's residence.

The gates of the Marquis of Anyang's residence slowly closed, shutting out the hustle and bustle outside and the Feng family.

As Feng gazed at the tightly closed door, tears welled up in her eyes again. She knew that obtaining Chu Ruohan's forgiveness was an impossible task...

"Young Madam," Haitang greeted her, her face showing some anxiety and worry.

"Has Ruyan returned?" Chu Ruohan asked Song Ruyan as soon as she returned to the mansion.

She was worried about Song Ruyan all day long, her heart constantly in her throat.

"Not yet..." Haitang gently shook her head.

Chu Ruohan suddenly stopped in her tracks, a strong sense of unease welling up inside her.

It's been two days and one night, and Song Ruyan still hasn't returned. Could something have happened to her?

She dared not think any further and immediately turned around and ordered, "Quickly, send more people to search everywhere."

Although Gu Junze did not know what Chu Ruohan had ordered Song Ruyan to do, he still instructed Yingqing to go and find the person.

"Don't worry too much. Song Ruyan is highly skilled in martial arts and will definitely return safely."

Chu Ruohan looked up at him, the worry in her eyes had not disappeared, she just nodded slightly.

"I hope so."

At that moment, a dark figure leaped over the outer wall like a ghost and landed heavily on the ground with a dull thud.

"Who goes there? Go and see."

Yingqing, who had already left, quickly turned back and went to check.

"Young Master, the young mistress is Miss Ruyan."

The crowd gathered around and saw that Song Ruyan was lying on the ground. She was covered in blood, her clothes were torn and stained with blood, and it was unclear where she was injured.

Chu Ruohan's heart clenched. She rushed forward, knelt down, and called out urgently, "Ruyan, Ruyan!"

Song Ruyan struggled to open her eyes, saw Chu Ruohan, and could only utter one sentence: "There's an ambush..."

The person then fainted.

"Ruyan..."

Chu Ruohan quickly had someone carry Song Ruyan to find Doctor Qian.

Dr. Qian was about to go to bed when he saw a group of people carrying Song Ruyan, who was covered in blood, in a hurry. He couldn't help but exclaim, "What happened? How did she get so badly injured?"

Doctor Qian took his pulse, but his brows furrowed even deeper. "Knife wounds, sword wounds, and signs of poisoning. If the wounds are not treated in time, the toxins have already begun to spread. The situation is not optimistic."

Chu Ruohan grabbed Doctor Qian, her voice trembling slightly: "You must save her, she can't die."

Song Ruyan got into trouble because she went to kill Gu Chengyan in her place...

At this moment, Dr. Qian was at a loss. He was a man, and Song Ruyan was a young woman. How could he possibly examine her?

Upon seeing this, Chu Ruohan immediately understood Doctor Qian's concerns. "Doctor Qian, saving lives is the priority. Please don't worry about these formalities and treat him as soon as possible."

Doctor Qian looked troubled. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Young Madam, it's not that I'm being old-fashioned, but external injuries need to be carefully examined and treated. If I were to act rashly, it would damage your reputation."

"Let me help you." With that, she rolled up her sleeves.

Song Ruyan was so badly injured because of her...

Dr. Qian was slightly taken aback, but seeing Chu Ruohan's determination, he had no choice but to nod.

"In that case, young mistress, I'll have to trouble you."

Gu Junze gave Chu Ruohan a deep look, then waved his hand and led his men out.

Chu Ruohan immediately went to the bedside, gently untied Song Ruyan's torn clothes, and, suppressing her own distress, carefully examined the wounds on her body.

The shocking wounds on Song Ruyan's body tugged at her heartstrings.

"Dr. Qian, there is a deep sword wound on my left shoulder, a knife wound in my abdomen, and... a wound on my calf."

Dr. Qian opened his mouth, then closed it again; he couldn't make a diagnosis based on such a description of the wound.

He took a deep breath. Forget it, saving lives is the priority. He kept telling himself that these were just mundane formalities...

He turned around and personally treated Song Ruyan's wounds.

He was forced to look elsewhere... he would never look inappropriately...

Chu Ruohan was slightly taken aback and stepped aside.

Dr. Qian cleaned the wound, applied medicine, and bandaged it quickly.

"Fortunately, Miss Ruyan was poisoned, which is quite common. I have the antidote here."

As Dr. Qian spoke, he took out a pill from the bottom of his medical kit, gently pried open Song Ruyan's jaw, and fed her the pill.

Dr. Qian wiped the sweat from his forehead and said wearily, "Young Madam, her life has been saved for now, but she still needs careful recuperation. As for when she will wake up, that depends on her fate."

Chu Ruohan thanked Doctor Qian and stayed by Song Ruyan's bedside.

Now she finally has the mind to think it over properly.

Before she lost consciousness, Song Ruyan said there was an ambush, and this was compounded by her injuries.

It seems Gu Chengyan was prepared all along; she was tricked and ended up harming Song Ruyan.

Fortunately, I survived...

Chu Ruohan rubbed her aching temples. First, Gu Chengyan left the Marquis's residence, taking the opportunity to divert Song Ruyan away.

Then came the invitation from Chunri Banquet; they really went to great lengths to scheme against her.

If she hadn't sent Song Ruyan to kill Gu Chengyan, there would probably have been other things waiting for her!

Now that I think about it carefully, if she hadn't been careful enough at the Spring Banquet, and had entered that room, everyone would have seen her disheveled and alone with a man.

Even if Gu Junze believes her and protects her, according to the laws of this dynasty, the Marquis of Anyang can still divorce her as a father...

Chu Ruohan felt increasingly frightened as she thought about it. This elaborate scheme, with its interconnected steps, was just a hair's breadth away from being perfect.

Marquis Anyang is truly cunning, intending to defeat her and Gu Junze one by one...

The door creaked open gently, interrupting Chu Ruohan's thoughts.

Gu Junze walked in. He first glanced casually at Song Ruyan, who was still unconscious, without much emotion in his eyes.

He immediately withdrew his gaze and looked down at Chu Ruohan.

"What did you send her to do?"

"Kill Gu Chengyan."

Chu Ruohan directly admitted that Gu Junze would find out about this sooner or later.

Gu Junze frowned even more deeply. He had only guessed that there was some entanglement between Chu Ruohan and Gu Chengyan.

Unexpectedly, the conflict between the two has escalated to the point of a life-or-death struggle.

This time, Gu Chengyan clearly had the upper hand.

"What exactly happened between you and Gu Chengyan..." He paused, then continued, "...what exactly happened between you two..."

Chu Ruohan raised her head and looked at the man in front of her.

Reborn into this world is too unbelievable. Will he accept it?

Or should we still consider her a demon...?
