TFWYH – Chapter 584 Beat up the traitor angrily

Yuanyuan stared blankly at Huangfu Yi, seeming unable to believe she would meet him here.

Huangfu Yi hurried over to her and reached out to steady her.

“Yuanyuan, how did you end up here?”

Yuanyuan came back to herself, pulled her hand away, then turned her back to him, her attitude icy cold.

“I dare not trouble Your Highness. I merely accompanied a friend to visit the young heir. Who would have thought he would actually… actually treat me like that…”

Before she could finish, tears streamed down her face again, as though she had suffered the greatest humiliation.

Huangfu Yi immediately understood. He turned and glared viciously at Huangfu Rongsheng, who was quietly trying to retreat. His gaze looked as though it wanted to devour him alive.

He was a battle-hardened general who had spent years fighting on campaigns. Usually, he restrained his killing intent.

But now, he held nothing back.

Huangfu Rongsheng trembled violently in fear, then dropped to his knees with a thud, his face drained of all color.

“F-Father… I… I…”

“You unfilial beast!”

“Ahhh!”

Before he could finish, Huangfu Yi kicked him hard.

Huangfu Rongsheng let out a shriek as his whole body flew backward, crashing into a tree and vomiting a mouthful of blood.

Everything hurt. It felt as if all his organs had shifted. Even moving was agony.

But when he saw his father striding toward him again, radiating murderous fury, it was like seeing the King of Hell himself. Supporting his broken body, he kept crawling backward.

“Father… no… your son was wrong… I was wrong…”

“Wrong? Do you know who she is? She is my woman! You dare lay hands on my woman?”

As soon as Huangfu Yi finished speaking, he kicked him again.

Huangfu Rongsheng was sent flying once more, coughing up another large mouthful of blood. He was already more dead than alive.

But he still heard Huangfu Yi’s words, and terror instantly consumed his heart.

It was over.

This time, he was finished.

His father would kill him. Definitely.

When he saw Huangfu Yi advancing again, he stopped caring about everything else and used all his remaining strength to crawl away.

A stream of liquid spread beneath him, making the two guards frown deeply.

The guards had wanted to intervene earlier, but after seeing this, they suddenly no longer felt like it.

A son like this only came to collect debts from a previous life. Better to beat him to death and be done with it.

No one tried to calm the enraged Huangfu Yi.

No one dared.

Huangfu Rongsheng had already taken several brutal blows and could not crawl fast.

Soon, Huangfu Yi stood before him again. His usually gentle and handsome face was now dark with storm clouds, like thunder about to break.

Just as the guards thought Huangfu Rongsheng would be kicked to death this time, a slender pale hand tugged at Huangfu Yi’s sleeve.

Huangfu Yi turned his head sharply, his expression terrifying.

Yuanyuan flinched. The hand clutching his sleeve trembled slightly, yet she still refused to let go.

“Y-Your Highness… d-don’t… please don’t be like this. I’m frightened…”

“Yuanyuan…” Huangfu Yi’s face softened. He took her hand. “Forgive me. I frightened you.”

Yuanyuan shook her head.

“It’s alright. Your Highness, the young heir is still your son. A lesson is enough. He is already so badly injured. Let it go.”

Huangfu Yi sighed and pulled her into his arms.

“You are too kind. That unfilial beast offended you so greatly, yet you still ask me to spare him.”

…That’s not the reason.

It’s just that if your son dies because of me, then if you regret it someday, won’t you settle the score with me instead?

Yuanyuan smiled shyly.

“Even a tiger does not eat its own cubs. I do not wish for Your Highness to bear such infamy. Besides… I am only a woman of the pleasure quarters. It is nothing.”
