Accidentally Married A Fox God - The sovereign lord spoils his wife Chapter 217 I'm Tired of Explaining Myself

"You are not allowed to drop this sort of accusation without properly explaining yourself." Xiong Mei's whole demeanour had undergone an abrupt transformation, as she suddenly expressed herself with the air of a ruler, a commanding presence whose each perfectly enunciated word weighed heavy as it was spoken.
After Li Meirong had acquired her much needed personal space again, she arranged her crumpled sleeves and slowly raised her chin up to lock eyes with her strange, fellow student.
It came as a surprise for Li Meirong when she was suddenly able to detect a terrifying sort of power lurking within Xiong Mei, a thick misty aura that had not been present before could suddenly be seen, taking shape and engulfing the bright-eyed beauty in a display which was both breathtaking and chilling at the same time.
Her irises, Li Meirong noted, had moderately altered their shade like the ever-changing weather and darkened into a raging storm. She struggled to keep her gaze locked on Xiong Mei's, going against her growing desire to cower underneath a force so terrible, and so much greater than her own.
"Your mount, Tiny. She almost killed me." Li Meirong's hands trembled, however, she managed to say the words without stammering.
"Impossible!" Xiong Mei scoffed, "Tiny would never act without my direct order." She rebuffed the accusation, waving her hand in the air as if the very notion was preposterous.
Li Meirong let out a bitter laugh, forcing herself to stand her ground, "I'm tired of explaining myself to other people who never bother to believe me. I wanted to tell you this before but you have disappeared for too long and stopped attending the daily lessons."
Xiong Mei opened her mouth to speak but at that same instance, Li Meirong jabbed Xiong Mei's shoulder with one finger and interjected, "For some odd reason, your spirit beast was jealous of the way you behaved around me. She dropped me off her back in midair and up until now, I'm not even certain of how I stayed alive. Do with this information what you will, just stay away from me. I got a lot of things going on with me right now, and I can't handle any more of this craziness."
At that moment, Bai Yu, the little furry spectator felt pride welling up in his little canine heart.
Despite his inability to move, his soul was raging with fire!
It was an unquestionable fact for the former second-in-command, that if he hadn't already chosen to whole-heartedly devote himself to the Bai clan, surely Her Ladyship's great feat of mind-blowing courage would have made him pledge his loyalty right there and then for the rest of his life!
'That's My Lady worthy of ruling the Huli Jing!' Bai Yu wordlessly cheered, 'A human mortal toppling the heavens, taking down an almighty godly dragon. You can do it, My Lady! Show her who's the boss!'
Needless to say, it was more than likely that Her Ladyship was unaware of who exactly she was jabbing her finger at, yet regardless of her ignorance, the act had been impressive all the same!
Unfortunately for Bai Yu, he wasn't the only person present who had been impressed with Her Ladyship.
Li Meirong's bold declaration caused Xiong Mei to withdraw her ire. The blizzard storm in her eyes had softened into gentle rippling raindrops, returning to their usual teal hue. She raised her hand to clasp the prodding finger in her palm, squeezing it ever so gently.
"No one ever dared to speak to me this way before." Her sentence came out as a whisper filled with wonderment.
The condensed, oppressive aura gradually dissipated.
