“Han Jing, I’m not going to be merciful next time if you harm anyone again!”

Prince Ling was certain that Han Jing was just playing nice.

“You’re speaking as if you have been kind to me,” Han Jing scoffed.

Prince Ling had his patience tested that day as he could not do anything to Han Jing. His uncle’s involvement was unexpected, he even stood there for a long time, refusing to leave!

Since he stopped him from striking Han Jing, he was sure that he would stop him again if he attempted to hit her.

Despite Su Yu’s carefree personality and the fact he barely had any contact with Prince Ling, he was exceptionally respectful to Princess Yi Feng although he despised women. Therefore, it was no surprise that he would take Han Jing’s side!

“Han Jing, what do you want? You can’t treat other people’s lives like trash under my watch even if you have Aunt’s support!” Prince Ling’s veins were protruding out from anger. He had no idea how to wrap up the incident unless Han Jing was the first to leave.

Even if he was right, he would become the unreasonable one in an incident caused by Han Jing herself because she was never one to reason with!

However, Han Yuxiao would be in real danger, and Second Lady Han’s hand might get paralyzed if this went on.

Prince Ling did not know why such an ugly and wicked person would exist!

“Your Highness, that’s not right,” Dong Bao blurted out. “What makes you think that my Lady treated lives like trash? Second Young Lady stood near the river and witnessed my Lady falling into the water without even considering rescuing her! What kind of sisterhood is that? Also, the whole of Hanjing City knows that my Lady can’t swim. If I did not get here in time, would Second Young Lady—or you, Prince Ling—have jumped in to saved her? All of you could watch my Lady drown without even batting an eyelid to save her, so why should my Lady rescue Second Young Lady? Your Highness, as my Lady’s betrothed, we can forgive you for hitting my Lady, but not for wanting her to die! Your Highness, do you think that this counts as treating a life like trash?”

Dong Bao could not hold in her thoughts any longer. She thought that Prince Ling was acceptable even though he never liked Lady Han. It was because he had a good character, and he never humiliated Lady Han in public. His failure to save her was understandable since he was the person who wished for Lady Han’s death the most in Hanjing City. After all, it was an embarrassment for a highly-regarded prince to have an ugly and domineering betrothed. Regardless, murdering her was beyond acceptance!

Dong Bao would have gone to Princess Yi Feng to report his bullying tendencies towards Lady Han a long time ago had it not been for Lady Han’s massive crush on him. Let alone, she forbade her to bad mouth him!

She could no longer hold her silence this day, or they would think that Princess Yi Feng’s people were weak.

“Attagirl!” Han Jing glanced at Dong Bao with approval.

Dong Bao noticed Han Jing’s admiring gaze and realized that she was acting differently than usual. The regular Lady Han would have beat her up if she dared to talk to Prince Ling that way. Yet, she was giving her a praised look! Dong Bao wanted to cry in joy.

“You—all of you—are unbelievable!” Prince Ling roared.
