Chapter 975 “Mother, There’s a Psycho Here (3)”
Heavy in his mood, Hu Bud Wei snaps with irate eyes: “What good do I have for a maid if you can’t even do a simple little thing like that?”
Going white in the face, the maid servant dropped whatever she was cleaning and turned the effort into a desperate bang of the head for mercy. “Milord, please spare me, I know my wrong! Please give me one more chance, I’ll do it properly from now on!”
Waving dismissively at this, the fox chief didn’t need to do anything else after that because the guard outside knew better than to allow this farce to continue. Truth was, this man hadn’t always been this harsh to his own housemaids, just that…. He’s not sure why either, but lately his mood’s been getting worse and worse so any mistake from the servants would trigger his ire.
Alone after the maid’s been dragged away, Hu Bud Wei didn’t know what else to do. The room’s eerily quiet after his outburst, and that’s when his eyes fell upon the distracting slip of paper sticking out of the pile of books. Picking it up from the floor, his eyes widened in horror because the picture portrayed on there was the very pendant displayed by Bai Yan on that day.Snap!
“I remember now, I remember where I saw that woman’s jade pendant….”
Not long ago, the king sent people to pass him a letter with this very picture – the contents were a message to all important individuals about the queen’s identity and her identification trinket. But that day he’s already decided to come to this border city, hence his reasoning for tossing the material aside for later memorization. However, that plan became lost the following day due to unplanned events.
It’s no secret the Fox Clan, including its branches, are all very strong demons due to its relation to the royal family. Unfortunately, that doesn’t help in any way regarding their fatal weakness of having short memories….
So, when shown this picture of Bai Yan’s pendant again, Hu Bud Wei’s head flew into a despairing outburst of despair and rage.
“Someone come, bring the second miss to me this instant!”
A guard outside comes in a hurry again and kneels in respect: “Chief, the miss went out already.”“I don’t care where she went, go get her right now!” He snaps in fury.
Hu Mei was his second daughter, and also his pride, that’s why he never questioned her made up story. Now to be thrown the truth of pure deceit and treachery, its unforgivable in his eyes because it’s no longer a simple little mistake of trying to seduce Di Cang anymore, it’s harming and attacking the royal family!
“Chief….” The guard shivers in fear, not knowing why the fox chief was so outraged: “Just now a man claiming to be Wu Xiong’s people had come to pass a message. He said the woman from the dispute the other month has been captured and is requesting the lady and your attendance over on his end.”
Bang!
Losing his balance, Hu Bud Wei completely knocks over the stuff on the table. Clenching his fist tightly: “That damn girl went where? GO GATHER EVERYONE THIS INSTANT! We need to bring her back. She mustn’t make any more mistakes!”
Otherwise, no one will be able to save us anymore….
After dropping this order down, the fox chief didn’t waste another second and practically threw himself out the door, his face full of unease for what’s to come.
