Zhu Zhuqing Prepared to Kill Dai Mubai's Entire Family; Crippled Dai Mubai Was Still Looking for a Brothel (1)
Then, Ye Chen also pretended to look in shock at Dai Mubai's limping figure and spoke softly in Hinata Hyuga's voice.
"Could it be... could that cripple who kept talking about being from the royal clan just now be your fiancé, Dai Mubai?"
As soon as Ye Chen said this, Zhu Zhuqing's delicate body shuddered violently again. Then, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her body falling backward uncontrollably.
"Ah... Sister Zhu Zhuqing, what's wrong? Are you okay...?"
Ye Chen hurriedly caught Zhu Zhuqing from behind, preventing her from falling.
Zhu Zhuqing had clearly suffered an immense shock. Her delicate body went limp in Ye Chen's arms. The beautiful eyes that had just been filled with hopes for the future, eagerly awaiting her marriage to Dai Mubai, had now lost all their light. There was only deep resentment and despair as she stared at Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who were still walking away with Dai Mubai limping along.
Since Dai Mubai's leg was crippled, he walked slowly. Ma Hongjun supported him, so he had not yet left Ye Chen and Zhu Zhuqing's sight.
Even Ye Chen had not expected this. He had merely wanted Zhu Zhuqing to see Dai Mubai sneaking off to visit a brothel in the middle of the night, but Dai Mubai was even more disgusting than he had imagined, actually saying something so utterly beastly.
That old hen Ma Hongjun was no better. Not only did he fail to say a single good word for Zhu Zhuqing, but he even colluded with Dai Mubai.
However, Ye Chen had not expected something even more disgusting to follow.
Dai Mubai, with his crippled leg, had one arm around Ma Hongjun's shoulders as he continued.
"Of course. The men of our Dai Royal Clan have never respected the women of the Zhu Clan in our hearts. My father looked down on my mother, and so did my brother and I. After she gave birth to the two of us, she was locked away in the cold palace and completely abandoned. My brother and I had planned to visit her later, but who would've thought she would kill herself? Just as expected of a lowly Zhu Clan woman..."
"So that's how it was..."
Ma Hongjun said in sudden realization.
"No wonder I've never heard you mention your mother, Boss Dai. If your mother were still alive, how could she bear to watch you brothers fight each other? So your mother had no status at all in the Star Luo Empire, and everything was decided by your father..."
Dai Mubai did not get angry upon hearing this. Instead, he sneered disdainfully.
"How could Zhu Clan women possibly have any status? The Zhu Clan was originally just a third-rate family of the empire. If not for the support of our Dai Royal Clan, they wouldn't even have been qualified to remain in Star Luo City. The only value Zhu Clan women have is to continue the bloodline of our Dai Royal Clan... My father was especially ruthless toward my mother, that Zhu Clan woman. In the future, I'll be even more ruthless toward Zhu Zhuqing. Once she gives birth, I guarantee she won't even get to see the child. And she still dares put on that cold, aloof act in front of me. What a bitch..."
"Dai Mubai, I'll kill you..."
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing, who had been lying weakly in Ye Chen's arms, finally could not endure it any longer. The grief, indignation, and despair in her eyes transformed into deep killing intent. She let out a pained cry and immediately tried to rise, ready to charge at Dai Mubai regardless of everything and tear that crippled Evil-Eyed White Tiger to pieces.
"Sister Zhu Zhuqing, don't be rash."
Ye Chen, transformed into Hinata Hyuga, hurriedly wrapped his arms around Zhu Zhuqing's soft, delicate body. Though he appeared to be a frail Byakugan girl, his strength had not been affected at all. With a little force, he restrained the enraged Zhu Zhuqing.
"Dai Mubai... you beast worse than an animal... I..."
Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was still about to shout, Ye Chen quickly covered her mouth, preventing her from saying the rest.
"Hm... what was that sound?"
Hearing a faintly familiar voice from behind him, Dai Mubai immediately stopped and looked in that direction.
"What sound? Boss Dai..."
Ma Hongjun also stopped and looked around.
"I just... I think I heard a girl scream."
Dai Mubai's broken leg hung limply as he could not help frowning.
Hearing Dai Mubai's words, Ma Hongjun burst out laughing. He supported Dai Mubai's arm again and said,
"Boss Dai, I think you're so desperate for women that you're hearing their moans already. Hahaha, don't worry. Once we really get going later, they'll keep on..."
After Ma Hongjun said that, Dai Mubai also revealed a lecherous grin. He patted his belly and said,
"You're right, Fatty... Let's hurry up and leave this street first. We can't let Little San discover us."
"Don't worry, Boss Dai. Although Third Brother has the spiritual power of the Blue Silver Domain and the Purple Demon Eyes, he never spies on his own people."
Ma Hongjun chatted with the limping Dai Mubai as the two slowly disappeared at the end of the street.
However, they had not left Ye Chen's range of vision. Once Ye Chen activated his Rinnegan, there was nowhere they could hide.
At that moment, Ye Chen was transformed into Hinata Hyuga. After her cute Byakugan changed into ripple-patterned Rinnegan, they changed back again.
Only then did Ye Chen hurriedly release Zhu Zhuqing's soft, delicate body and remove the hand covering her lips.
The moment Ye Chen released Zhu Zhuqing's soft, delicate body, she seemed to suddenly lose all strength again and collapsed onto the ground with a thud.
This made Ye Chen feel somewhat distressed. What if she damaged her chest?
As the founder of the Akatsuki Organization, he was very concerned about his female members.
Thus, Ye Chen hurriedly helped Zhu Zhuqing up again. At this moment, her eyes were filled with sorrow, despair, and emptiness...
Clearly, Zhu Zhuqing's earlier vomiting of blood was not because she had truly been injured or had lost her strength, but because her heart had suffered an unprecedented blow.
To a certain extent, such a blow was even harder to accept than physical pain.
Yes, Zhu Zhuqing was gasping for breath as though even breathing had become difficult.
Because tonight, in those few minutes just now, everything she had believed in, persisted in, and hoped for in her heart had been utterly shattered.
"Zhu Zhuqing, Sister Zhuqing, don't be like this... Don't be sad. Only if you live can you take revenge on that scumbag."
At this moment, Ye Chen, who had become Hinata Hyuga, was still quite persuasive when he spoke.
Then, he gently patted Zhu Zhuqing's back. After a long while, Zhu Zhuqing finally recovered somewhat, though she was still breathing lightly. With despair in her eyes, she said,
"I originally... I originally thought Dai Mubai was merely somewhat promiscuous, but I never expected that he had looked down on me from beginning to end... He even looked down on everyone in our Zhu Clan... We... we were nothing more than tools for their Dai Royal Clan to continue their bloodline... He had never thought highly of me, and he had never loved me."
As she said this, tears had already flowed from the corners of Zhu Zhuqing's eyes. It was no wonder. Hearing Dai Mubai say such disgusting things with her own ears had made her years of sincere devotion go to waste. How could she possibly not cry?
