Chapter 8: Dongbao Is Awesome!
"Han Jing, if you dare harm others again, don’t blame me for being truly impolite!"
Prince Ling thought that Han Jing must have ill intentions.
Han Jing curled his lips: "Sounds like you’ve been polite."
Prince Ling felt that all his patience had been exhausted today, yet he couldn’t touch Han Jing now, because his Imperial Uncle was meddling unexpectedly today, and having interfered for so long, unbelievably, he still hadn’t left.
He was stopped just as he was about to strike Han Jing; if he tried again now, he’d surely be stopped again.
Though the Imperial Uncle usually appeared and disappeared unpredictably and had no dealings with Han Jing, despite always disliking women, he showed special respect toward the Eldest Princess. So, it wasn’t surprising that he’d be partial to Han Jing!
"Han Jing, what exactly do you want! Even if you have your aunt backing you, you cannot take lives so recklessly under the Emperor’s eyes!" Prince Ling’s veins bulged, but unless Han Jing stepped aside, he really didn’t know how today’s matter could be resolved.
No matter how just his cause, anything stirred up by Han Jing always ended up in Han Jing’s favor because Han Jing was simply unreasonable!
If he waited any longer, not only would Han Yuxiao be in danger, but surely the second miss of the Han Family’s hand would be crippled!
Prince Ling really couldn’t understand how there could be someone in this world so hideous and heartless!
"It’s not right for Your Highness to speak like this. How has our young lady taken lives recklessly? When our young lady fell into the water before, the second miss stood by the waterside to watch the show instead of rescuing her. And now she speaks of sisterhood? Everyone in Hanjing City knows our young lady fears water. Had I not arrived in time, was it the second miss who would save her, or Your Highness? You all could watch our young lady die, so why must she save the second miss? Also, as our young lady’s fiancé, Your Highness has not only struck her but also wishes her dead. Doesn’t this count as taking lives recklessly?" Dongbao just couldn’t stand it anymore. She used to think that while Prince Ling didn’t like their young lady, at least he was decent enough not to publicly humiliate her. But today, she could comprehend him refusing to save her; among those in Hanjing City wishing her young lady dead, Prince Ling likely ranked first. After all, everyone praised Prince Ling, yet having such an ugly, arrogant fiancée was indeed a loss of face. But regardless, he shouldn’t go so far as to strike!
If not for the fact that their young lady loved him desperately and never allowed anyone to say a word against him, she would have long complained to the Eldest Princess! How could she stand for him bullying their young lady like this!
If she endured any longer today, they’d truly believe the people of the Princess Mansion were easy to bully!
Han Jing looked at Dongbao with great appreciation—truly worthy of being her maid!
Receiving Han Jing’s approving gaze, Dongbao couldn’t help but think, their young lady seemed different today; ordinarily, she would have been beaten for speaking to Prince Ling this way! Today, she was actually encouraged? Dongbao was so touched she nearly cried.
"You, you all are simply, simply twisting words and forcing logic!" Prince Ling shouted.
