Chapter 602 - Want to Marry the Queen (3)
Chapter 602 “Want to Marry the Queen (3)”
“I don’t know if the people in the palace have notified you yet but I will say it again. After this, I will be taking Dragony with me. If the members of the Dragon Clan wishes to see her again, I will have my people escort her back for a visit.” Turning her lips into a sneering grin of contempt, Bai Yan gazes down at the dragon chief with clear disdain in those eyes: “Just that if I find another scar on Dragony’s body after the visits, I will have the soldiers rain down at your doorsteps as a consequence!”
Long Chang Tian honestly didn’t expect such an open threat. Popping those eyes in shock, the man looks up with incredulous disbelief.
“I don’t agree!” Zhang Ruqi abruptly jerks up from the ground in protest, “Dragony is my daughter, I don’t want her to leave me.”
I can never allow this little fool the chance to surpass Xiaoya!
“Ruyi!” The dragon chief roars out at his wife in fright, “Get down on your knees this instant!”
If it was in the past, Zhang Ruyi would absolutely listen to her husband; however, her head’s been completely muddled by the matter surrounding Dragony this time. “Queen, you would not really take my daughter away from me and separate us, right?”
Giving a damp look at this so-called mother, Bai Yan then shifts her attention back to the little missy instead: “Dragony, tell me, how does your mother usually treat you?”
“Umm,” making an innocent look like that of someone oblivious to the situation, the young girl did as told. “My mother dislikes it when I call her Mother, that’s why I can only call her Madam at home. They would also often yell and hit me, calling me Little Fool. One time I stole Second Sister’s pastry to eat because I really, really wanted to have a taste, that’s when she used hot water to burn me…”
Whenever Dragony brought up all the cases from her past, the voices of the guests would diminish by another level until only the crisp sound of the young lady could be heard.
Of course, Zhang Ruyi would be livid at having her misdeeds pointed out in open public, hence the blue and white color on that face. How dare she embarrass me in the public? Did she forget who gave birth to her?”
As for the rest of the audience, many were now showing disdain with a much larger portion making angry glares at the dragon chief and his wife. They knew Dragony was a mentally challenged girl inside, but that doesn’t excuse the poor treatment these parents are giving her. No one likes to hear such sad stories, especially during auspicious events like the queen’s coronation.
“Dragon Chief,” finally someone couldn’t hold back and spoke up. “Is this lady really your daughter’s mother, or is she a new wife you took in?”
“I say, this is the first time I’ve seen a mother treat their own flesh and blood like so. This really opens up my eyes today.”
The ridiculing voices of his peers had left the dragon chief utterly embarrassed with nowhere to hide his face. “Ruyi, if you keep making trouble here then I will divorce you once we go back!” Long Chang Tian fires off a stare of death at his wife.
Though unwilling, the dragon wife was now left in a pinch and knew better than to resist. For that reason, Bai Yan saw it as an opening to continue. “Tell me, would you like to go with them Dragony?”
“No! I don’t want to!” The young missy heavily grasped onto her savior’s arm, refusing to let go. “Queen, I like you, please let me stay with you and not them!”
Who said Dragony was stupid?
She understands enough to know who’s the best for herself. As for the Dragon Clan that gave birth to her, there’s only torture awaiting there if she returns.
“Okay,” smiling gently, Bai Yan slowly caresses the girl’s hair to sooth that anxiety. “You don’t need to go anywhere. From now on you can stay with me and Xiachen.”
