Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
Pinlan Garden hadn’t been lively in a long time. As soon as General Yu returned, he wanted to teach Yu Linglong, who had been in the limelight recently, a lesson. Naturally, no one wanted to miss this good show.
Therefore, such a scene appeared in the back courtyard of Yu mansion: General Yu, holding a riding-whip, stood fiercely in the center of Pinlan Garden’s courtyard, and from time to time he uttered a few angry shouts at the closed door. Mu s.h.i.+ and Yu Qianliu followed him closely, with pleased expressions on their faces, and the mamas and maids who served the two of them followed their mistresses grandiosely, plus the servants who had joined in halfway. They all stood around in utter despair. Surprisingly, a ma.s.s gathered of dozens of people.
Amidst a series of roars from General Yu, the door to the main building in Pinlan Garden finally opened.
Yu Linglong was wearing a hazy gauze and silver silk gown with a neat spiral coil on her head. Three agate golden phoenix tail ta.s.sels were inserted unevenly into the bun. With her slow footsteps, the hairpin ta.s.sels trembled slightly, her pretty face became more and more as bright like the autumn moon, but cold as ice and snow.
General Yu suddenly saw such a girl with unparalleled beauty and he was shocked for a moment. This face was so familiar, unknowingly evoking memories from more than ten years ago.
However, that vague fragment of a warm memory just flashed through and was sharply interrupted.
“Why did you call me? Do you want to die!?”
Yu Linglong looked at the crowd in the yard contemptuously and her clear gaze swept over General Yu, who was flaring like an angry lion with his teeth and claws. She instantly s.h.i.+fted her gaze, as if she saw only a minor servant.
It really was interesting. When Yu Peng wanted to beat her, so many people came to watch the fun.
General Yu came to his senses and said angrily: “How arrogant! I told you to go, how dare you not go!?”
Off to the side, Mu s.h.i.+ had now been cast a psychological shadow by Yu Linglong. Although she was following General Yu, she still shrank her shoulders subconsciously and pretended to persuade him: “Master, don’t be angry, Linglong is ignorant. Let’s teach her slowly…”
She was really afraid of Yu Linglong. No matter if General Yu could teach this concubine, she would always leave herself a way out, so as not to offend Yu Linglong face-to-face.
General Yu shook off Mu s.h.i.+’s insincere attempt at stopping him and pointed at Yu Linglong with his horsewhip: “You d.a.m.n girl, don’t you get out of here!”
Yu Linglong snorted: “Who are you to talk to me like this?”
After she spoke, everyone gasped.
In the Yu household, General Yu was the head of the family who did his duty. Not even Mu s.h.i.+ dared speak to him like that, let alone Yu Linglong![Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
General Yu roared angrily: “You unruly girl, you even dare to scold me!?”
Yu Linglong slowly walked down the steps. Her beautiful and refined face was full of disdain: “What about scolding you?”
General Jade was furious and raised his whip: “You’re a dead girl, see if I won’t kill you!”
He raised the whip with a sound of the whistling wind, and viciously cracked it in Yu Linglong’s direction!
Among the onlookers, there was a timid servant girl who was so frightened that she hurriedly covered her eyes, too afraid to watch the next scene.
General Yu had a martial arts background, and the strength in his hand was amazing. Could the sweet and pretty Yu Linglong withstand such a violent whip?
The next moment, the woman’s screams did not sound as expected. Yu Linglong raised her slender hand and accurately grasped the tail of the whip. The expression on her face instantly became ruthless: “Do you dare to hit me?”
