Chapter 31 Not A Very Good First Encounter 3 ” (2/2)

Making a low heavy grunt at the hit, his hands that were imprisoning Bai Yan loosened itself by reflect, thus allowing her to escape from under his grasp…

“Your Highness.” A guard suddenly descends from the sky at this moment. Beads of sweat could clearly be seen on the newcomer’s forehead because he never expected there to be a being daring enough to hit the lord.

“Do you need subordinate here to bring the woman back?” He hurries to wipe the cold sweat away, afraid his appearance would offend the man.

“No.” Di Cang’s line of sight fell in the general direction of the escaping woman, “go investigate her background and identity. I want to know if she was ever at that place six years ago.”

“Yes Your Highness.” Making a respectful bow, the guard salutes to show he understands the command.

“Oh yes, Your Highness…” The guard timidly lowered his head, “the princess is refusing to leave the estate right now and is making a fuss that she wants to see you.”

Wrinkling his forehead, Di Cang’s voice becomes a cold one: “Didn’t I say to throw her out?”

“But…”

No matter what, that’s the royal princess of the kingdom. Even if they got more balls, they, as servants, would never dare do such a thing as to throw a princess out the door!

Sweeping his cold gaze across the man, Di Cang makes a displeased grunt: “Go to the penalty hall to receive your punishment!”

The cruel man’s voice causes the guard to lose his balance. Shaking from the waist down, only horror could be found in the guard’s face at this point.

The penalty hall? That sort of place usually meant a location for minor disciplinary actions, but in His Highness’s estate, it’s a place where one might not come back out alive. Even if they do, it’s a certainty the survivor would be crippled somewhere!

“Yes, subordinate willingly accepts the punishment!” Trembling in his lip, the guard forces these words out with all his nerves rattled.

In front of His Highness, no amount of begging will warrant mercy. In fact, it will only make the punishment even more severe.
