Chapter 45: How are you going to compensate me?

Following Prince Rui’s hoarse but confident accusation, Le Yao Yao experienced a mental explosion. A loud thunderbolt exploded across the clear sky, and her only thought was –

It was over!

She had been exposed! She beat up the arrogant pig, but he had found her!

She didn’t think her actions were wrong though. If she could go back in time, she would still have done the same. But only if she could guarantee she wouldn’t be caught.

Now, the person was going to catch her. If the King of Hell found out she was the culprit, most likely, she wouldn’t be able to see tomorrow’s sunrise.  

Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao became fearful and depressed.

Currently, the King of Hell was watching her intently. Although his face revealed no emotions, his eyes were deadly. It was as if there was a powerful force coming towards her way. Le Yao Yao’s scalp turned numbed again.

“Umm, uh….”

Le Yao Yao wanted to explain but she couldn’t stop stuttering. Before she could say another word, Prince Rui ruthlessly flung the lower hem of his clothes as he turned and exited the room. He headed towards the front doors of the residence.

Seeing this, Le Yao Yao forcefully gulped down her saliva and looked like she wanted she wanted to cry but had no tears.

Oh God! Could this really be the end?

—–

The entrance of Prince Rui’s residence was very grand. The bright red doors were massive and heavy. They gave off a dignified and courageous aura.

All the Imperial guards were wearing body armour and helmets. They had accessories around their waists and looked like an impressive bunch.

But at this moment, the residence was surrounded by a group of hooligan servants. The leader was a huge figure dressed in gold. He looked like a moist, fat pig.

The fattie had a pig face covered with bruises. The ones that stood out the most were his matching black eyes. With a quick glance, he almost looked like a national treasure (panda)!

This guy was nonetheless Master Shi. In fact, he was so furious about getting beat up that he stormed home to change his clothing and rushed here with his servants before even applying medication on his face!

Originally, Shi Cheng had always been the Capital’s arrogant bully. He would use his father as back-up and tyrannized the weak. Ever since he was little, he had always been the one doing the offending. Who would dare to offend him?

Even when he caused his father to be steaming mad; at most, he would just tell him to kneel in front of the ancestors for awhile.

Therefore, he was going to get revenge no matter what. Plus, the ones who beat him were actually lowly servants. There was no way he was going to swallow this down.

Although those two were the servants of Prince Rui, it was reasonable of him to get revenge. So even if the Prince himself comes out, he would still have to hand them over!

But in Shi Cheng’s opinion, the Prince definitely wouldn’t come out for two measly servants. The most authoritarian person he would probably have to deal with was the chief manager.

Furthermore, based on the fact that his father was a high government official and his sister was a favoured Imperial concubine of the Emperor, the chief manager would most likely be afraid of him and obediently hand the two servants over.

Shi Cheng was counting his chickens before they were hatched. So, he brought a bunch of his subordinates over to get his revenge. Unexpectedly, this time, he had miscalculated…. When he saw the tall, extraordinarily handsome man taking huge strides out of the entrance, all his subordinates around him instantly turned silent.

The man gracefully headed towards him. It was as if he was floating on clouds; his robe sleeves and hair were raising up along with the wind. He looked like a Daoist Immortal.

Although everyone felt his honourable presence as he got closer, they also felt an indescribable coldness that made them tremble with fear.

Prince Rui’s pupils were emotionless and icy cold. It was like staring into a bottomless hole. No one could detect his next move.

This mysteriousness was suffocating and gave everyone a lot of pressure.

In addition, from head to toe, Prince Rui was emitting a ruthless aura. This aura was naturally developed since he had slaughtered countless of people all these years.

So currently, all the people standing by the door could feel a frigid blast of air coming their way. They couldn’t help but shiver.

It was too cold…

But that was an understatement. If one glance could cause them to shudder, then Leng Jun Yu’s icy voice was like dragging them into a boundless ice cave –

“Are you here to cause trouble at my residence?”

Leng Jun Yu spoke slowly and lazily. His enunciation was light; like wind blowing at the tip of the tree. But to everyone else, it sounded like thunder crackling.

“N-no, of course not…”

“W-we would never do such a thing…”

After Leng Jun Yu spoke, everyone turned white from fright. They were rattled and scared.

After all, even with a hundred guts, they wouldn’t dare to create trouble!

Especially since Prince Rui’s voice was so low and lazy. It actually gave off a very oppressive feeling.

He was like a huge rock that was harshly pushing against their heads.

Even the cocky Shi Cheng had lost all courage. His face was kind of grey.

At the end of the day, regardless if we are talking about animals or humans, when we are faced with an opponent that is stronger than ourselves, we would all feel a sense of dread.

For instance, Leng Jun Yui only said one line, but it was already enough to suppress everyone on the scene.

Seeing this, Le Yao Yao couldn’t help but sigh.

This is what you called true power!

Seeing how scared Shi Cheng looked, Le Yao Yao felt awesome. Le Yao Yao despised Shi Cheng. He was a good-for-nothing rascal!

But she didn’t realize that when she faced the King of Hell, her fear wasn’t actually less than anyone else’s….

Anyhow, currently, Shi Cheng was slightly ashamed of himself since he had appeared so cowardly in front of his subordinates. He wanted to regain his face back; so although he was very scared, he toughened his face and appeared calm.

It would have looked a bit convincing if only his legs weren’t shaking…

“Uh…P-Prince R-Rui, today.. I-I was beaten up at Happy House. And..the servants that beat me are from your residence. How are you going to compensate me?!”
