Su Jingchen has asthma, something Jun Yian has long investigated and confirmed as true. However, when Yu Xiaolian said they both went to Miaojiang to find the Bell Doctor, Jun Yian did not believe it.
"If you were seeking medical treatment, why forge a road permit? Why not go openly and honorably?"
Yu Xiaolian lay on the ground, her voice trembling, "My parents have always disapproved of my engagement with Su Jingchen. I was compelled to lie to them, saying I was returning to the Northern Land for ancestral rites, just so I could leave home openly. Without saying this, I couldn't have gotten away."
Shortly after Yu Xiaolian left, Jun Yian received a secret letter, so during this period, Jun Yian had thoroughly investigated Yu Xiaolian's family.
He had heard about Yu Changhe not being entirely satisfied with Su Jingchen as a future son-in-law.
