Chapter 160 â When a Woman Gets Jealous (2)
Lu Wushuang left the Cining Palace and hurried to the Lotus Pond in the Imperial Garden. As long as she thought of Lu Yaoyaoâs scheme to attract Mo Rongzhan, she felt like there was a fire burning in her heart. She couldnât wait to scratch Lu Yaoyaoâs face. Only then would she feel relieved.
From a distance, she saw Mo Rongzhan and Lu Yaoyao standing face to face. Lu Yaoyao looked up at Mo Rongzhan with expressive eyes.
Two figures stood beside the lotus pond; the woman was slim and graceful, the man was long and upright. If anything, they looked like a couple having their quiet time in the garden. Lu Wushuang fumed with anger. She was almost too jealous even to breathe.
Whatâs more, Mo Rongzhan was smiling. He actually smiled at Lu Yaoyao ⊠He seldom smiles at her!
As ordered by the Emperor, Ye Zhen was tasked to treat Mo Rongyi. She planned to leave and return the princeâs palace as soon as possible.
Then, she suddenly heard heavy steps approaching, and Lu Wushuang came to sight. From the look on her face, she was livid. Ye Zhen didnât need another trouble for this day.
âYour Majesty, if you have no other orders, this ministerâs daughter should go now.â She would still have to prescribe the sick little prince.
Mo Rongzhan was a man with intense martial arts. From afar, he could already sense Lu Wushuangâs presenceâand her anger. The woman had never displayed an unpleasant behavior in front of him before. Was it all a facade?
He wanted to know what she would do next.
âThe Wang Fei is here, donât you want to meet your cousin before leaving?â Mo Rongzhan asked lightly.
Ye Zhen felt that he was up to no good in saying so. She was not blind. Lu Wushuangâs face looked like she was coming to kill her.
But at the back of her mind, she did want Lu Wushuang to beat her so that everyone would see her true nature.
As Ye Zhen was thinking of this, Lu Wushuang had already marched up to her. Passing the Emperor, she didnât give a salute, her heated gaze trained to her cousin alone.
And before they knew it, a loud slap resonated in the area.
Lu Wushuang, blinded by jealousy and hurt, had already slapped Ye Zhen hard in the face. It was so hard that Ye Zhenâs head tilted to one side, and a spat of blood flowed out from her mouth.
An ugly red mark immediately marred her face.
Mo Rongzhanâs eyes were as cold as ice, he witnessed it all. When Lu Wushuang raised her hand again to slap Ye Zhen for the second time, he grabbed her arm. âWang Fei, what are you doing?â
The furious Wang Fei answered maniacally, âIâm teaching my sister a lesson. She is so shameless. If her parents didnât teach her right, I will!â
Ye Zhen buried her face in her hands, perfectly hiding the smile on her face.
âWang Fei, I only asked your sister to watch over my brother. What is so shameful about it?â Mo Rongzhanâs voice was ominous and with just a hint of surprise. If not for the gentle face, he wonât recognize the woman whose arm he held in captivity to protect Ye Zhen.
Lu Wushuang stared at Ye Zhen with a pair of eyes that seemed to burst into flames anytime soon.
A slap was not enough. Lu Wushuang was dying to destroy her cousinâs face.
âYour Majesty, this ministerâs daughter will take her leave now.â Ye Zhen learned today that Lu Wushuangâs jealousy was so terrible that she wasnât able to control herself.
It seemed that any woman couldnât get close to the Emperor as she morbidly thought that other women are all trying to steal Mo Rongzhanâs favor from her.
Lu Wushuang looked at Ye Zhen with a disdainful look and felt even more that her cousin did not take her seriously. âDid I permit you to go?â
âWhat else does the Wang Fei want to do? Give me another slap?â Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and looked at Lu Wushuang in the eye mockingly.
Lu Wushuang, whether in the Lu family or in the palace, was a pampered woman. No one dares to question her like Ye Zhen!
Does she think the Emperor really takes a fancy on her, so she dares to be so presumptuous that she doesnât even care to regard me as the Wang Fei? She is way beneath me!
âLu Yaoyao, how dare you be presumptuous!â Lu Wushuang was so angry that she wanted to kill Lu Yaoyao on the spot. Anyway, she had no feelings for her cousin as they did not live together, not to mention developed sisterhood.
Ye Zhen calmly said, âWang Fei I donât know what I did wrong that made you so angry. Please calm down and donât be mad at me. â
Mo Rongzhan held back Lu Wushuang, who glowered and kicked, but the little girl who was beaten was calm and serene, showing her excellent cultivation.
Both were born in Lu family, but Lu Yaoyao was more elegant than Lu Wushuang. It seems that Lu Shiming raised his daughter well.
âIf you donât want to lose face, vacate the imperial palace immediately and never come back! You lowlying â â Lu Wushuang screeched towards Ye Zhen, giving all her might to escape from the Emperorâs hold.
âEnough!â Mo Rongzhan intervened, âI have just said that I only want Lu Yaoyao to watch the little prince and make sure he takes his medicine. Wang Fei Lu, do you want to lose your face?â
