Chapter 331: Just Like A Dog
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Slap! The sound was exceptionally crisp and loud.
Lin Jin was even more dumbfounded by the slap.
He stared at Lin Zhuyu in disbelief, as if he was looking at a monster he did not recognize.
This slap seemed to have opened up a whole new world for Lin Zhuyu. Lin Zhuyu unceremoniously drew her two hands and attacked Lin Jin’s face madly!
“This slap is for my concubine mother. It’s you guys! It is you guys who killed her! This slap is for me. I am your flesh and blood, yet you wanted to take my life when I was going through the most difficult time of my life. You should die, you G.o.dd.a.m.n biological father!”
Lin Zhuyu seemed to have gone crazy with the slapping. Her bloodshot eyes were filled with anger and hatred. Even if both her hands were red from the beating, she was unwilling to stop!
Jiang Yang looked at her and his heart ached. What kind of treatment could an unfavored daughter of a concubine get in the residence?
Jiang Yang stepped forward and hugged Lin Zhuyu, comforting her softly. “Alright, alright, Zhuyu. It’s all in the past. Everything is in the past. I promise that no one will intrude upon our happy life anymore.”
Lin Zhuyu’s two eyes widened in a daze. The image of her concubine mother dying with her eyes wide open kept flas.h.i.+ng across her mind wildly at this moment. She leaned on Jiang Yang’s body and burst out crying loudly.
“You guys go in first,” Su Ying said as she walked up to the two of them.
Jiang Yang nodded and carried Lin Zhuyu into Prince Qi’s Manor.
It never occurred to Lin Jin that he would one day be beaten up like a dog by his concubine’s daughter!
He raised his red and swollen face to look at Su Ying. When he met Su Ying’s icy sinister gaze, he felt a chill run down his spine.
“You… you guys… you guys are lawless. You guys have no respect for the law at all!”
Su Ying grabbed his robe by the lapel in one move and threw him out. “Get lost.”
Pow! Lin Jin fell heavily to the ground. He felt that all his bones seemed to have shattered.
When they saw this, the people from the Lin’s Residence were scared out of their wits. They quickly went forward to help Lin Jin up.
“Argh! It hurts! It hurts so much!”
The moment they moved him, they inadvertently touched the broken bones on Lin Jin’s body. He cried out in pain, “There’s no respect for the law! No respect for the law!”
Those who were watching the spectacle clicked their tongues. However, there were also quite a few who felt that Lin Jin deserved it. He murdered his concubine and schemed against his concubine’s daughter. How could a gentleman act in this manner? To think that he was a minister too. How shameless.
Su Ying returned to the manor. Initially, she only asked the Imperial Guards to throw that guy out. However, when she thought of Lin Zhuyu’s hatred for the Lin family, she still hoped that Lin Zhuyu could vent all the hatred she had acc.u.mulated in her heart.
Lin Zhuyu was led away to freshen up before she came out again.
When the ceremonial matron saw that the bride had emerged, she immediately started hyping up the atmosphere. She offered a lot of auspicious wishes and began the wedding’s ceremonial procedures.
“The newlyweds are coming to pay respects.”
Su Ying sat down on the chair and looked at the two of them in their wedding robes with a smile on her face.
“First bow to heaven and earth.”
“Second bow to your elders.”
“Husband and wife exchange bows.”
“The ceremony is complete.”
Xiao Jin got up and followed the guests who had come today to celebrate to the front courtyard to feast and drink. Su Ying also brought many n.o.ble ladies and young ladies to the back courtyard.
It could be said that the wedding banquet was a joyous event.
As Lin Zhuyu listened to the raucous commotion in the courtyard, her heart could not completely calm down.
“Your Highness.”
The door was pushed open, and Lin Zhuyu instinctively lifted her veil to look at Su Ying when she heard the movement.
Su Ying had eaten and drunk her fill. She had even taken two mouthfuls of wine and her face was a little flushed. It made her face look less ferocious.
Su Ying asked everyone in the room to leave. She glanced at the food on the table. It was all prepared for Lin Zhuyu, but she hadn’t taken a single bite.
Su Ying walked over to the stool beside her and sat down. “Are you still afraid?”
Lin Zhuyu didn’t deny it and murmured a reply. The hatred and fear that had acc.u.mulated over the years wouldn’t disappear so easily.
Lin Zhuyu lowered her eyes and said softly, “My mother was a young miss from a poor scholar family that had declined. Because the family had declined, she had no choice but to become a songstress in a restaurant. Later, my father took a fancy to her and brought her back to the residence. However, the mistress of the residence disliked my mother immensely. She said that my mother was a s.l.u.t who seduced men. She felt that my father was attracted by my mother’s voice and had someone poison her and destroy her vocals so that she could never sing again.”
Lin Zhuyu felt that her birth mother’s life was really hard. “Father knew that it was the mistress who did it, but he didn’t say anything because he wanted to make use of the influence of the mistress’s maiden family to rise. After that, he even complained that Mother’s voice sounded awful when she spoke, so he never went to her courtyard again. However, my concubine mother said that it was fortunate that she still had me. For my sake, she had to survive at all costs in that G.o.dforsaken place that devoured people completely…”
Ever since Lin Zhuyu was young, Lin Jin had never paid attention to her, a concubine’s daughter who did not have any outstanding qualities. This lasted until one day when he suddenly came to tell her concubine mother that he wanted Lin Zhuyu to marry Xiao Jin as a concubine.
Her concubine mother had already suffered enough as a concubine in her life. She only hoped that Lin Zhuyu could marry into a well-off family and become the legal wife. That was the first time Lin Zhuyu saw Lin Jin hit her concubine mother. Her concubine mother’s face became swollen from the slap. He even separated Lin Zhuyu from her concubine mother and threatened Lin Zhuyu that if she had the guts to refuse to marry or defy him, he would take her concubine mother’s life.
“I thought that as long as I listened to them meekly, they would let my concubine mother off. But my concubine mother still died. My concubine mother hanged herself so that she wouldn’t implicate me and become a burden to me. However, it was also them who forced her to her death. They forced her to her death… Sob, sob, sob, sob… Your Highness, I really hate them. I hate myself for being useless and not being able to avenge my concubine mother. I hate them for being so cruel. In their eyes, my concubine mother and I are not humans. We are just entertainment for them to pa.s.s the time. We are merely p.a.w.ns that they can abandon at any time after they have achieved their goals!”
Lin Zhuyu’s tears flowed down her face, and her makeup was ruined.
Her entire body was stiff, and her hands trembled. She was filled with hatred to the brim. “Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you for letting me live again. Thank you for giving me the courage to hit him… Even though… even though I still can’t avenge my concubine mother, I will never forget Your Highness’s kindness to me in this lifetime.”
Lin Zhuyu sobbed as she knelt in front of Su Ying, hugging her leg and crying piteously.
Su Ying reached out, lifted her up, and then helped her to the bed to sit down.
Lin Zhuyu cried for a while longer before she stopped sobbing.
“Your… Your Highness, do… do I look very… very ugly right now?”
Su Ying saw that her eyes were swollen from crying, so she asked a maidservant to fetch some water for her to wash up.
“You are quite ugly.”
Lin Zhuyu was speechless.
“His Highness has already gone to retrieve the things you placed in the storage pavilion. Lin Jin won’t live long.”
Lin Zhuyu raised her head to look at Su Ying in shock. After following Su Ying for so long, she understood one thing. When she heard Su Ying’s words, she only needed to understand the literal meaning of her words.
If she said Lin Jin wouldn’t live long, then he wouldn’t.
“Your Highness, 1 have a request. I wonder if Your Highness can grant it?”
“What request?”
