Chapter 979 “Welcome the Queen (1)”
“Mother,” first giving the fox a look, then back at Bai Yan, “Can I rip this woman’s mouth apart? She dares to threaten you and I don’t like that.”
Leaning back against the chair again, Bai Yan crosses her leg lazily: “If it makes you happy Sweetie.”
Blooming into a brilliant smile upon getting permission, Dragony’s eyes were innocent and lovely. However, to Hu Mei who’s about to feel the full wrath of that might, it’s akin to a true monster grinning at herself, ready to tear into her flesh and devour her soul.
Boom!
Its then without indication, the door to the tavern were blown apart and the resulting force nearly sent the fox lady flying forward. Fortunately her balance was good and she didn’t completely hit the ground, even so, the stinging pain on her back had caused her face to twist in frustration when turning around.
“Uncle Yu, you’re here! This woman is going to kill me, you have to save me!” Whatever negative feelings she had quickly changed to joy once she recognizes who had come.
There’s also another senior who came with Yu Xiong (Eagle Chief), but since the lady was so focused on the eagle man, she didn’t pay the other unfamiliar individual any heed.
“You are Hu Bud Wei’s daughter, Hu Mei?” Oddly enough, the eagle chief didn’t respond in the way that she expected and acted like they never met.
What does Yu Xiang mean by that? It wasn’t all that long ago when we last met, why doesn’t he recognize me? Hu Mei thought, a tinge of panic starting to fill those foxy eyes.
“Uncle Yu, I am Mei’er,” the fox lady forces a smile before coldly sweeping her gaze over to Bai Yan. “Do you remember the jade pendant we talked about? This woman, this deceitful witch, somehow forged a copy of it and is now flaunting it around in the public.”
“Jade pendant?” The eagle chief makes inexplicable frown.
Under normal circumstances, Hu Mei would surely have caught onto the strange behavior from the other man, but since she’s so overwhelmed with anger, any key details had become blind to her eyes.
“That’s right! She found out about my encounter with the king and is trying to impersonate as His Majesty’s benefactor. Now she’s using that forgery to tell the world it’s hers and wants to seduce our amazing and wonderful king. Uncle Yu, such a woman mustn’t be allowed to live!”
Just the thought of the jade pendant being in Bai Yan’s hand would drive this fox lady nuts, borderline insanity at this point. Nothing but a human woman, what right and qualification does she have to be the king’s benefactor? I deserve it! ME! IT SHOULD BE ME!!!
Yu Xiang’s expression grew even more surprised now like he’s oblivious to what Hu Mei’s talking about.
“Ahumph,” the random old man next to him makes a cough, “Yu Xiang, when did your clan start to socialize with the foxy family here? And what’s the deal with the jade pendant and being the king’s benefactor, what’s this all about?”
The old senior’s aggressive gaze then swept over to the fox lady, that face growing dark and threatening. This woman really has some gals to forge the queen’s very own identification token. Does she take the world as fools and she’s the only smart one?
The eagle chief didn’t want to continue with this conversation as well and barks out: “Miss, I don’t know what you’re talking about, nor have I ever met you before.”
