My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

Su Chen secretly resented Su Jin for being too arrogant and haughty. His expression remained unchanged, and he shifted his gaze towards Lan Ruo Shui who sat beside Su Jin, “This must be the future younger cousin-in-law right.”

Lan Ruo Shui furrowed her brows slightly and didn’t speak, just nodding to Su Chen. She didn’t like Su Chen, this so-called cousin at all.

“Sure enough, what kind of pot matches what kind of cover.” A woman in yellow behind Su Jin snorted coldly and looked at the two of them, continuing: “One won’t take the initiative to greet even after seeing his own biological father, and the other is a fallen noble from the Lan Clan who colluded with the aliens. Who knows what confidence you have to be so arrogant, how rude.”

The Lan Clan’s collusion with the aliens was known throughout the entire Human Realm, and the larger families also vaguely knew that the Empress of Emperor Ming was secretly killed by the Lan Clan and the aliens, hence why Emperor Ming so freely cleaned up the superiors of the Lan Clan, putting each one to death without exception.

Although Emperor Ming didn’t attack the Lan Clan until they were destroyed, but the advanced-level powerhouses and the senior members of the Lan Clan were practically killed or injured, and their foundation was heavily damaged, now being reduced to a third-class clan.

Therefore, the people of the Su Clan looked down on Lan Ruo Shui very much and thought that the Ming Palace Royal Clan wouldn’t favour the Lan Clan anymore, so the woman in yellow took the opportunity to ridicule.

Lou Mu Yan furrowed her brows. She wanted to speak at first, but she felt the icy anger radiating from Lan Ruo Shui’s entire body, and her lips rose into a curve. She didn’t say much.

At such a time, it was naturally better for Lan Ruo Shui, who was Senior Brother’s partner, to fight back.

Although the Lan Clan’s foundation had been greatly damaged, but they could also use this to rectify things. Lan Yan Huan’s relationship with Ming Xiu in the Foreign Battlefield had improved a lot, and he had not participated in the affairs of those years, so he was now promoted to the position of the head of the Clan.

Lan Ruo Shui had never considered herself attached to the Lan Clan. She was cold and indifferent, and she normally wouldn’t care about what the yellow-clothed woman said, but now that it involved using her to attack Su Jin, she couldn’t sit still any longer.

“This Young Miss, before you say that others are rude, you should pay attention to your own words and deeds.” Lan Ruo Shui’s pressuring icy aura emanated from her and she gave the yellow-clothed woman a faint look, “The way you are now makes me feel like you are a shrew with a villainess appearance.”

“PU! Well said.” Lou Mu Yan didn’t expect Lan Ruo Shui, who had such a cold temper, to say such words of ridicule. She chuckled and said: “There’s a saying that ugly people are up to no good, that’s justifiable.”

“You…” The woman in yellow blushed when the two echoed each other and she didn’t dare counter Lou Mu Yan, so she could only glare at Lan Ruo Shui aggrievedly.

Su Jin looked at the people of the Su Clan coldly and said: “I have already completed the mission assigned by the Su Clan’s superiors when leaving the Su Clan, I am no longer a member of the Su Clan, and my name is not listed in the Su Clan’s genealogy. Everyone knows well that in the future, there is no need to be so hypocritical and seek relationships when we meet.”

Then he stood up and with a wave of his sleeves, the woman in yellow flew back in an instant, spitting out a mouthful of blood from a serious injury.

“Ruo Shui is my betrothed. If anyone dares to say a bad word about her, no matter who they are, I will not be polite.”

He glanced coldly at the woman in yellow who looked up in horror and said: “This is just a warning. If there is another time, I will take your life.”

Su Jin’s words were arrogant and domineering, but no one thought he was bluffing. This time, he was truly angered.

Lan Ruo Shui’s heart warmed. She looked at Su Jin tenderly, held his hand, and said: “Just a bunch of jumping jesters, no need to get angry at them.”

“That’s true. I just can’t see you being wronged.” Su Jin sat down and held Lan Ruo Shui’s hand, chuckling.

He didn’t pay much attention to the Su Clan right now, and he didn’t want to pay attention to them, yet right now, they used Lan Ruo Shui as a means to attack him, which crossed the baseline he could tolerate.

“Senior Brother, well done!” Lou Mu Yan admired Su Jin’s action in protecting Lan Ruo Shui, as a man should.

The Patriarch of the Su Clan had an ugly expression. He stared at Su Jin fixedly, and after a while, said slowly: “You better look out for yourself.”

Then he flicked his sleeves and turned around to lead the Su Clan members to the empty seats at the back to sit. He felt very contradictory towards this son, and now it was more anger from the other party not giving any face to the Su Clan.

Now that his son’s wings have grown hard, with the support of Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu, as well as that Great Immortal Venerable Master, he really couldn’t do anything to Su Jin. Since he couldn’t win him back, then he could only pretend that he didn’t have this son.

It was just that he still felt uncomfortable in his heart, and today he only hoped that Su Chen wouldn’t disappoint the Su Clan’s expectations, so that he wouldn’t continue to waver and feel that what he did in the past was wrong.

Su Chen looked a little sad on the surface, but he was overjoyed in his heart. What he wanted was for Su Jin father and son to grow further and further apart, until it was impossible to repair it. Now it seemed that his wish had come true.

“Aye!” Su Chen looked at Su Jin helplessly, as if the other party was so unfilial. He sighed heavily before turning around and leaving with Patriarch Su.

As for the woman in yellow who lost all face of the Su Clan, Su Chen had someone carry her down.

Those who sat in the resting area and watched the fun knew more or less about the Su Clan’s grievances. Many people disdained the behaviour of the Su Clan husband and wife, and they looked down on Su Chen even more.

Su Jin performed well in the Foreign Battlefield, and also contributed to the eradication of the aliens. Many people had a very good impression of him.

Therefore, many people thought that it was definitely a big mistake for the Su Clan to have given up on Su Jin, and they would definitely regret it in the future.

Of course, today’s match between Su Jin and the talented winemakers of the Su Clan was even more worth looking forward to. Everyone wanted to see if Su Jin could make a sudden breakthrough with his own ability after leaving the Su Clan, or would he be defeated by the Su Clan’s spiritual wine masters, firmly suppressing him.

[CLANG CLANG CLANG!!]

A melodious bell rang, and the finals of the Spiritual Wine Competition began.

“I believe in you!” A smile appeared on Lan Ruo Shui’s cold face and she clenched Su Jin’s hand.

Su Jin nodded with a smile, and kissed her forehead, “Mm, I will let them know that Su Jin will be more dazzling without the Su Clan.”

Lou Mu Yan also went to her place as a guest judge.

The competition officially began. Su Jin calmly picked up the ingredients for brewing grade 9 spiritual wine and began to act.

Su Chen noticed that the materials Su Jin chose were all grade 9 materials, and a stern look flashed across his eyes. He adjusted his mood for a bit before picking up grade 9 materials and began to refine them.

The rest of the Su Clan also took action, but they were all only grade 7 or 8s. The grade 9 spiritual wine master of the Su Clan was an Ancestor in seclusion, and his age had already exceeded five hundred years old, so it was naturally impossible to participate in this competition.

The Patriarch of the Su Clan noticed that Su Jin was brewing grade 9 spiritual wine and his heart sank. When he saw Su Chen also chose materials to brew grade 9 spiritual wine, he was instantly relieved.

Su Chen had always been relatively stable and wouldn’t do things he wasn’t certain of due to being emotional. This meant that Su Chen had secretly advanced to a grade 9 spiritual wine master.

He rejoiced in his heart, but at the same time, he was a little displeased. Su Chen also kept this kind of thing a secret—truly all his sons were filled with worry.

Of course, no matter what, he was biased towards Su Chen’s victory, so that he and his wife’s decision to give up their own son back then was correct.
