Chapter 557 Jun Ruqing” (1/2)
“Miss Ruqing, please don’t make things difficult for us. His Majesty have already said it, all demons must obey Her Roya Highness’s word. In the Demon Realm, the Queen’s order is law and above the King’s word as well.” Still wrinkling that brow, the guard refuses to budge: “Also, Sire came earlier as well and was rejected exactly like you right now by the Queen.”
Jun Ruqing literally shuddered at the news. Gently gripping those hands until its a tight ball, the fox woman felt like she’s been riddled with holes in the heart, thus causing immense pain for the soul.
“Don’t misunderstand me Mr. Guards, I’m only here to seek an audience with the Queen in order to pay my greetings. I have no other motive.” Though she’s managed to force a smile while saying this, the bitterness and sorrow inside could be read like a sheet of paper in those eyes.
Exchanging a helpless look with his peer, the leading guard speaks again: “Miss Ruqing, please don’t do this and go back. Maybe when the Queen is free, she will then summon you for an audience.”
A minute of painful silence: “I understand…”
However, just when the fox woman’s ready to leave after all this back and forth, that’s when she noticed the domineering and arrogant figure coming out of the White Moon Palace from the corner of that eye.
“Sire!” The two guards were shockingly horrified at the sight. Hurrying to step forward, they kneel in fear for what’s to come.
When did His Majesty go in?
Why didn’t we know?
These were the sorts of questions running through these poor fellas’ head at the moment.
“Mmm,” giving an indifferent nod in return, Di Cang’s tone sounded cool and somewhat fluttery. “Continue your watch, no one is allowed inside to disturb my wife.”
“Yes, Sire.”
Cold sweat still poured out of the two guards back; however, they are now ever so grateful to stand their ground in not letting their king inside earlier. Otherwise, who knows what sort of punishment would’ve befallen them.
