Chapter 981 “Welcome the Queen (3)”
“I said it before that my mother’s the queen. You didn’t believe us and swept us away, humph! Then when my mother pulled her pendant to prove herself, you also claimed it was a fake and wanted to hit me as well. Even worse, you later attacked us with those people and drove us into the mountains. Thankfully the Wing Clan’s elder recognizes my mother, otherwise we would’ve been in danger.”
Fei Yi’s expression grew a shade whiter at the implication of the missy’s word: “Queen, please believe me. Even if I didn’t recognize you, I would’ve identified you through the jade pendant. I would never be as stupid as that Hu Bud Wei.”
Despite the old senior’s pointless worrying, Bai Yan never had any intent to blame him. It’s just him overthinking it; after all, to be as dumb as Hu Bud Wei and his daughter, it would really take a miracle to find another pair in this backwater of a city.
While Hu Mei continues to splutter on the floor, Yu Xiang on the other hand could only shake his head and sigh at this laudable outcome. Hu Bud Wei really is unfortunate. First it was his eldest daughter trying to drug the king so she can sneak into his bed, and now this younger one drives the queen away and threatened her life. A once in a lifetime opportunity is ruined by jealousy, what a fate he has….
It’s then while the eagle chief was lamenting the twist in one’s misfortune, a swift wind suddenly blows over into the tavern and appears a man wearing a light blue robe. This newcomer was no other Hu Bud Wei who had rushed over after realizing his own folly.
Normally Hu Mei would be delighted and overjoyed to find her own father coming to the rescue, but she knows better than anyone. If it was a choice between the family as a whole, or a daughter, this man would without question pick the bigger body and abandon herself. Now instead of just fear and distraught on the face, the fox lady was despairing as well.
Sure enough, Hu Bud Wei’s head was thinking exactly that after scanning the tavern. He could recognize the Wing Clan and Eagle Clan.
So I’m too late in the end….
Tightly clenching his fist, he slowly inches forward in a trembling manner. Then before anyone could understand what he’s going to do, the old fox plops to the ground and gets into a prostrating position.
“Queen, I was blind and foolish in failing to recognize you. Please, out of consideration for my loyalty to the Demon Realm, please spare my Fox Clan.” he cries out with sobbing tears and snot.
Not minding this little play, Yu Xiang takes this opportunity to grow his own existence. Pushing a chair over in a flattering manner: “Queen, please sit.”
Bai Yan didn’t mind this and brushed her skirt into a better position before taking a seat. “When you chased me before, you weren’t acting like this were you?”
Hu Bud Wei went white at that little sly comment. First giving his own daughter an angry glare, he then reverted back to the crying man child act. “Queen, I was blinded by this stupid daughter of mine, that’s why I didn’t know you were the queen. If I had known, I would never have done what I did that day.”
“That is to say if I wasn’t the queen then you would’ve killed me, is that it?” asked Bai Yan with a cold smirk.
He was stumped for a response. It’s exactly like she says. If Bai Yan wasn’t the queen, this old fox would never feel he has done anything wrong.
