Chapter 23: Chapter 23

All he could see was a young man with large eyes and bushy eyebrows enter with long strides . He knelt down on one knee in front of Xu Wang: “I, Hu Military Academy Officer Yu Weiwu, pay my respects to Lord Xu . ”

Xu Wang smiled a bit as if he felt what was going on in front of his eyes was getting more and more interesting .

“Rise . You’re a Hu Military Academy Officer? You don’t look like it!”

Yu Weiwu’s face froze . The Xu Wang from this legend was still sloppy . Well, how can you judge someone’s occupation off of their appearance?

But this certainly shouldn’t be said in front of Xu Wang . Yu Weiwu stood up and said politely, “I wouldn’t dare . I heard something happened at home, so I just requested a leave of absence to come back and see . ”

Yes, something big happened, his own mother was beaten black and blue, and in the capital, the most difficult Xu Wang also oversaw his home . Was he still be in the mood to be a manservant?

Mu Shi, whose hair was being pulled by Yu Linglong, saw Yu Weiwu return and immediately, like seeing a savior, pulled some strength out of nowhere and threw off Yu Linglong and then pounced over . “Weiwu, you finally returned!”

Yu Linglong looked at this young man who stood in front of her and gave him a once over . Yu Weiwu? How could she not find this person in her memory?

But seeing Mu Shi was pleasantly surprised, Yu Linglong could also guess that he could make Mu Shi as happy as eating chicken dropping candy . It must be her son then .

Yu Linglong’s guess wasn’t wrong; he really was the Yu family’s first wife’s eldest son . Mu Shi’s own son Yu Weiwu was now barely nineteen . He had studied martial arts from a young age, and also carried general Yu’s military glory . Nowadays in Beijing, he was an eighth rank Hu military academy officer . He spent his days on duty in the Hu military and rarely had free time to return home . This morning, Mu Shi had sent a notice to him that there was something going on at home, and when he requested a leave of absence he hurried back .

Outside of General Yu’s military campaign, even though Yu Weiwu was the backbone of the home, as soon as he heard of Xu Wang’s arrival, he naturally rushed back to see him .

Xu Wang closed the fan in his hand, with a pair of eyes like black jade appeared to smile but did not . “You came back just in time, I was worried that your household didn’t have anyone in charge, and my horse won’t be returned . ”

Yu Weiwu had just come back and the situation in front of him wasn’t quite clear . When he heard this he couldn’t help but be baffled . Mu Shi hurriedly said, “Weiwu, it’s...it’s Fourth Sister who offended Master Xu Wang . She brought Master Wang’s horse to our house . ”

Fourth Sister? Yu Weiwu’s brow wrinkled and his gaze dropped to Yu Linglong .

He saw this concubine who he hadn’t met before standing in the center of the hall . From head to toe, her brilliant red spring jacked reflected her soft flesh, just like a graceful and beautiful hibiscus . Now, she looked coldly at his examining gaze, and her appearance seemed to be lacking the slightest amount of fear .

As the first wife’s eldest son, Yu Weiwu’s loftiness was naturally unlike other people’s . Now he saw in Yu Linglong’s face that she didn’t realize anything was wrong, and he immediately got angry . “Hurry up and bow down, admit your wrongs to Master Wang!”

Yu Linglong’s eyes swept him with a look of contempt . He really was his mother’s son . It wasn’t a black-and-white issue, he maintained that it was her fault . It really can’t be Master Wang’s doing? There’s no way he wanted her to be a pushover and makeup!

“What are you thinking, why are you making me kneel!?” She suddenly started yelling clear abuse at him, which shook Yu Weiwu dumbstruck .

Where did Yu Weiwu receive these kinds of insults before? He was the eldest son of the Yu household, and an official . His younger siblings respected and feared him, how dare this new concubine open her mouth and scold him!?

“You—“ Yu Weiwu wanted to open his mouth and lecture Yu Linglong, but at his side, Mu Shi hurriedly tugged at his jacket .

Mu Shi meant that that girl Yu Linglong was not to be trifled with . She wanted to let him know that he shouldn’t act blindly without thinking, but Yu Weiwu misunderstood . On his side, he saw Xu Wang who was looking for excitement, and Yu Weiwu immediately thought that this family scandal shouldn’t get out . He forced the verbal abuse back into his mouth, turned his head, and commanded the outside manager: “Quick, bring Master Wang’s horse here!”

“Slow down!” Yu Linglong coldly said, “You can let Xu Wang bring the horse here, however, he must apologize to me!”

Apologize!?

The few people in the room were all stunned .

Yu Linglong stole Xu Wang’s horse, and in spite of everything, she wanted the family to apologize?

Yu Weiwu saw the surprise on Xu Wang’s face disappear in a flash and showed his barely detectable faint smile . “I don’t know why Fourth Mistress wants this Wang to apologize?”

Indeed, Xu Wang’s rank was so precious, even if he poked a hole in the sky, no one would dare say a word . How come this tiny fourth concubine from the Yu family wanted him to apologize?

Not waiting for Yu Linglong to speak, Yu Weiwu was unable to hold back, and advanced with loud strides, shouting, “You don’t know life from death, you rude girl, how dare you speak to Master Wang like this! Believe me or not—“

Nobody knew what Yu Weiwu was going to do, because Yu Linglong had already, like lighting, given Yu Weiwu a slap on the face!

“How dare you speak to me like that, I see YOU don’t know life from death!”

Xu Wang finally saw the excitement he was looking for, and now saw Yu Linglong lift her hands to give Yu Weiwu a resounding slap, and suddenly couldn’t help but laugh out loud . “If it’s such good talent, no wonder she kicked me from horseback last night! I truly accept my defeat!”

After Yu Weiwu stared blankly, stumped for a moment, he finally regained his composure, and couldn’t help but be angry and annoyed . “I see you’re asking for trouble!”

In the Yu household, everyone, even Mu Shi, had begrudgingly hit him a bit, but this girl born from a female dancer unexpectedly dared to hit him!?

Yu Linglong smiled, how about hitting him? They all beat her until she couldn’t get out of bed, even Mu Shi, what’s it to also hit Yu Weiwu?

It was that in this body and Yu Weiwu’s flowed the same blood . Yu Linglong also didn’t plan to take him as her older brother, who is there to call relatives? To her, those who cared about her were willing to help at critical times; those were her relatives . People like Mu Shi and Wu Weiwu couldn’t wait to make her the culprit when they encounter bad people . What kind of relatives are those!?

Yu Weiwu had a few years of military experience, and he also had a strong and fit body, and now he was slapped by a small girl in front of Xu Wang and his own mother . To him, this was simply the greatest humiliation . He saw he was now completely unable to control the spread of rumors about family affairs and lifted his big hands, grabbing for Yu Linglong .

This little serving girl, he shouldn’t give her the slightest of fierce looks, she’s still acting as if he’s a spineless coward!

Yu Linglong turned her empty hands, and accurately pinched Yu Weiwu’s wrist . She didn’t even wait for Yu Weiwu to react, his stomach already endured a severe kick!

“Oh—“ Yu Weiwu’s pain produced a stifled groan, and he immediately bent at the waist . However, he was a robust young man . This one kick had hurt him, but he definitely wasn’t kicked all the way down; he was only bent over a quarter of the way . Yu Linglong followed this with a heavy karate chop, and ruthlessly came down on the nape of his neck!

This time, Yu Weiwu didn’t have time to groan, and his tall body fell down on the floor .

“Weiwu—“ Mu Shi immediately shrieked, and she subconsciously wanted to throw herself at him, but after she saw that Yu Linglong was ruthless like an Asura demon, she stopped walking .

The full-body pain reminded her how terrible this concubine was .

Yu Linglong lifted her foot, stepped on Yu Weiwu’s face, thrusting her shoe that was embroidered with pink lotus flowers, and violently twisted it a few times . Yu Weiwu’s face immediately showed a few red and dusty raised imprints .

“What trick are you, his mom, planning? Do you still dare provoke me?” Her voice was tender and charming, but it had dark and cold intentions . “Go back to where you came from, the old mother doesn’t have control here!”

Yu Weiwu was delirious from the karate chop, and from the effort, he made just now, he had left the face of the earth for a while . Just now he fell over on the floor, battered and exhausted . He couldn’t even speak .

Yu Linglong gracefully took back her foot . Yu Weiwu lifted his head and looked sternly at the silent Xu Wang at his side .

“Do you still want your horse?”
