After Being Kidnapped by the Crown Prince - Chapter 211
~End of chapter 210
Zhao Zhi followed her into the house, Ming Zhu was unable to drive him away, so she treated him like air, not paying him attention nor looking at him.
Xiaoman had not seen her mother since she got up in the morning, so she started to make a scene since very early in the day. Hong Ling couldn’t calm her down even with candies, so she was really exhausted, she really had never seen such a clingy child!
Could it be that Ming Zhu was also clingy like this as a child? She really could not picture it.
Chapter 211
(74.2)
There were two fluffy and cute little pony tails on top of Xiaoman’s head, her lips were red and her teeth white, she had beautiful features, and her eyes were all red from crying. The little girl buried herself in the pillow, like she had suffered a great wrong.
Fearing that she would suffocate, Hong Ling hurriedly took the child out of the bed, hugging her while saying nicely, “Your mother has something to do and will be back very soon.”
“Oh.” The little girl’s voice was sulky, as if she was not very satisfied with this explanation, and not happy at all.
“You’re almost three years old, how can you still be so clingy with your mother?”
“Oh.”
“……” Hong Ling felt that Xiaoman’s personality was eighty percent taking after her father’s, it was too difficult to serve her!
Ming Zhu pushed the door open and entered the room. She saw her daughter lying on Hong Ling’s shoulder, whimpering, and looking very sad.
She immediately felt distressed in her heart, and walked up to her to hug her, “What’s wrong with Xiaoman?”
When the little girl looked up and saw her mother, she immediately stopped crying and stretched out her arms, wanting Ming Zhu to hug her.
Ming Zhu held her daughter and had to coax her for a while before she finally managed to console her, Hong Ling was just about to say something when she saw the man outside the door. She blurted out, “How come he is here?!”
Hong Ling’s voice was loud, and all the people in the room could hear her.
For a moment, no one said anything.
Hong Ling still had lingering fear in her heart towards this man, she knew now after a few times that he wasn’t a lord she could provoke, and she silently stood behind Ming Zhu, to hide herself.
Zhao Zhi looked at the little girl in Ming Zhu’s arms. There was no obvious change in his eyes, as he stared deeply at the little girl’s face for a few moments. With a closer look, she looked more like Ming Zhu, especially those pair of round eyes. After carefully looking at her, one would find that her appearance was almost the same as her mother’s.
Zhao Zhi took a few steps forward, and Ming Zhu dodged, taking a step backwards.
The man stopped his footsteps and did not move again. He had been restraining his emotions since yesterday, holding back again and again. He said, “Don’t spoil her.”
Always clinging to her mother, what look was that ?
Ming Zhu froze, “It’s none of your business.”
Zhao Zhi sneered, “What do you mean my daughter is not my business ?”
Ming Zhu couldn’t figure out what his attitude towards her daughter was, she couldn’t tell whether he could tolerate her or not, and if he could tolerate her, it wouldn’t be good for her either.
If he was determined on bringing the child back to the capital, what was she going to do?
She would have to watch her child being raised by someone else? Watch the child calling another woman mother? No, no, no, she couldn’t do it.
Zhao Zhi back then told her that he was going to take the child to the palace to be raised there. Ming Zhu was so scared that she couldn’t stop her hands from trembling as she wrapped her arms around the child, saying stubbornly, “She’s not your child.”
Zhao Zhi raised his eyes to look at her and said clearly, “If she’s not mine, then I’ll kill her.”
“You!”
The unrestrained and spirited Hong Ling was shocked to hear such words.What a big mouth ! What a cruel heart ! He could even say such words towards such a cute little girl.
Hong Ling was so angry that she forgot to be afraid and stepped out from behind Ming Zhu, “You dog man, do you have any conscience at all ah? When Ming Zhu gave birth to the child, she almost died in labor, you heartless white-eyed wolf ! With a father like you, the child is better off without one.”
Zhao Zhi’s eyes were a little empty, he clenched his fingers hard and asked in a hoarse voice, “Almost died in labor?”
Hong Ling nodded her head, “Yes. You don’t even know how dangerous it was, there were pots after pots of blood coming out of the room, if she hadn’t been fortunate, I really thought she was going to die that night.”
Zhao Zhi’s face immediately turned cold, and he silently swallowed the bitter taste in his throat.
Her body was weak, he knew that.
When she was in the crown prince’s residence, there was not much improvement even after nurturing her health for more than half a year.
Ming Zhu tugged on her sleeve, “Don’t say anything more.”
How could Hong Ling listen to her advice now ? She was completely angry right now, and was determined to let this dog man know his place, “Don’t tell me you think Zhu Zhu still has you in her heart? She already completely forgot about you 800 years ago, meeting this kind of vicious man once in her life is enough, you are such a ruthless man with the heart of a wolf and the lungs of a dog, sooner or later you will meet retribution!”
Zhao Zhi’s face was bloodless, he was standing with his back against the light, beside the window, his extremely beautiful face was very pale, and he somewhat started to get angry, “You move aside.”
Hong Ling lifted her head and chest, standing up tall as if she wanted to fight with him, Ming Zhu hurriedly stopped her, “Hong Ling, don’t say anything anymore.”
Hong Ling stomped her feet in anger, thinking that her character was too soft. Facing this kind of man, she should scold him harshly. Besides didn’t they have Wei Chiyu to back them up? No matter how powerful this man was, she estimated that he was at most on the same level as Wei Chiyu.
