Su Xiufeng's words brought a sense of relief to Meng Chuyue's heart.
She didn't want Song Ting to be a villain.
Even though Shen Ci wasn't ready to acknowledge Song Ting, Meng Chuyue hoped that even if he wasn't a good person, he wouldn't be too despicable, so as to spare Shen Ci the heartache.
The fact that Su Xiufeng dared not tell Song Ting about kidnapping her and coercing her with the threat of human lives suggested that he was at least not someone who brazenly did evil deeds.
She nodded, "Okay."
"Mhm," Su Xiufeng seemed satisfied with her understanding, "I'll tell them that you are Enzhi's friend, brought here by her, and because you've studied traditional Chinese medicine, you became curious upon hearing about their illness and so you wanted to have a look. Have you got it?"
Despite herself, Meng Chuyue found Su Xiufeng's commanding manner quite amusing, as if she were an empress dowager.
