Chapter 602: Heart Breaking
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“What… What?”
Yu Huarong was so shocked that her eyes widened to the extreme, her pupils trembling violently as if in an earthquake.
“A mere servant who dares to harm my son is not worth sparing. But if it’s your husband, First Lady Yu, I can forgive him this once. Consider it as severing the ties between you and me. In the future, do not address me as your cousin.”
This demand not only ruined her lifelong prospects but also severed the only bond between them.
Feng Tianlan… was so ruthless!
Yu Huarong’s eyes instantly turned red, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face.
Watching her tottering figure, Jing Feng couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement.
Master’s approach is akin to killing without shedding blood, truly heart-wrenching!
Could it be that Master has always remembered the suggestion Young Master Xiaonan made before?
Young Master Xiaonan wanted Master to marry Miss Yu off, and not just any marriage but a distant one. At that time, Jing Feng thought it was childish talk and something Master would never do.
However, it turned out that Master not only wanted First Lady Yu to marry, but he insisted that she marry a guard!
If this news were to spread to the capital, how many people’s eyes would pop out in astonishment?
Those who admired Miss Yu would be heartbroken! And wouldn’t the members of the Yu family be furious?
Wasn’t Master afraid of being questioned by those people when he returned to the capital?
Of course, Jing Feng believed that Master was not afraid.
The primary worry was that if such a harsh decision was made, and considering that the First Lady Yu was also Consort Yu’s niece, it could strain the relationship between Master and Consort Yu, which would be undesirable.
After a long silence, Yu Huarong found her voice again, choked with tears. “Cousin… Do you hate me so much? For the son of that woman, you would humiliate me like this?”
“Qingluan is my wife, Xiaonan is my son. Those who harm them deserve to die.”
Feng Tianlan stared at her with a resounding intensity.
Every word felt like a knife plunged into Yu Huarong’s heart, and she seethed with jealousy. “If it were my aunt or the Emperor, would you also kill them?”
Feng Tianlan remained silent.
His pair of deep black narrow eyes, as profound as an abyss, continued to gaze at her with a cold, unrelenting stare.
Yu Huarong’s heart felt a chilling emptiness. Though he hadn’t answered, she seemed to have already guessed the answer.
“You’re insane! You would become an unfilial and unrighteous person for the sake of a woman! You’re insane!” She shouted loudly, without any semblance of composure.
No one had ever witnessed First Lady Yu behaving like a madwoman.
In the capital, she was an extremely n.o.ble young lady from a prestigious family, elegant and refined. In the Qiankun Academy, she was one of the exceptionally gifted twin pearls, proud, aloof, and beyond reach.
Such a beauty was now acting like a madwoman.
Jing Feng sighed inwardly, thinking, “This is truly a tragedy. Master has driven yet another person to madness.”
Suddenly, there was a loud bang from behind.
Everyone turned to see All Cheng lying on the ground.
One of the black-clad guards went to check and then reported, “Master, he bit his tongue and took his own life.”
The first time he tried to take his own life by biting his tongue, Yu Huarong had stopped him.
However, after seeing Prince Lan forcing Yu Huarong to marry him, he couldn’t bear to see her humiliated, so he ultimately chose to end his life to protect her.
Yu Huarong was first stunned, then she cried out in grief and rushed over.
“All Cheng! All Cheng! Why are you so foolish? Didn’t you promise to protect me for a lifetime? You liar! How could you take your own life? How could you leave me behind like this! You big liar! Sob, sob! What am 1 going to do now that you’re gone…”
Jing Feng couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
It seemed that the bond between First Lady Yu and her personal guard was truly extraordinary.
Even if it wasn’t a romantic relationship, it was definitely not an ordinary master-servant bond.
With a loyal and devoted guard gone, and First Lady Yu crying so bitterly, would Master relent?
