Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1446 - 1384: Just You Wait
Ah Jiu’s hostility was evident, and Madam Wang, being sensitive, noticed the murderous intent shooting from the man beside that little b*tch. No, it was killing intent.
She looked up, and the man also looked over, his eyes slightly narrowed, his hands behind his back. Although he did nothing, Madam Wang’s legs went weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
Who is he?
The man’s appearance was handsome, adorned in a purple robe embroidered with auspicious clouds, his waist wrapped in a Jade Belt, hanging with Mutton Fat White Jade, and a head crowned with a Purple Jade Crown inlaid with Bright Pearl. His presence was imposing, exuding an air of untouchable nobility.
Who is this person?
Like Madam Wang, Old Madam Wu and Wu Lihong were also filled with questions. They were all keen observers, yet that man stood beside Wufu with an aura of nobility and elegance, commanding respect and averting their gaze.
"What are you doing? Stand firm!" Old Madam Wu sensed the fear and cowardice of her daughter-in-law and couldn’t help but criticize her.
Isn’t she always very imposing? What is she doing now? It’s truly shameful!
How could Old Madam Wu understand Madam Wang’s distress? She was certain that the man was filled with killing intent toward her, his gaze upon her like watching a dead person.
Madam Wang swallowed hard, her body stiff with discomfort, desperately wanting to escape quickly.
Wufu ignored the few people and said to Ah Jiu, "Let’s embark!"
She had promised to take him to see her master, Old Mr. Meng. The invitation card had already been sent, and if they didn’t depart soon, the old man would surely be anxious.
Ah Jiu pursed his lips, "What about these people?"
"My master is the most important!" Wufu’s mouth twitched as she turned to board the carriage.
Seeing this, Ah Jiu’s gaze swept over the few people and he mounted his horse.
Wu Lihong and the others were stunned.
He immediately took two steps closer, stopping Wufu, "Where are you going? Who is this man?" He pointed at Ah Jiu.
Mo Lan wielded her sword to block his approach to the carriage, coldly saying, "Move aside!"
Wu Lihong shuddered, halting his steps, and with a grim face, looked at Wufu inside the carriage, "We came to discuss something with you!"
"Visiting without first sending an invitation card?" Mo Lan coldly spoke again.
Wu Lihong’s face froze.
Old Madam Wu stepped forward, addressing Wufu, "Wufu girl, it’s best to resolve old enmities rather than create new ones. Things must have a conclusion, and I believe you also want to settle this troubling matter soon, right?"
"What do I have to discuss with you?" Wufu cast a sidelong glance, her lips curving, "Is it perhaps about Lord Wu’s underhanded tactics? Or perhaps..." She looked at Madam Wang, "How your household’s Madam pays attention to me and my mother?"
Madam Wang’s face changed several shades, tightly pursing her lips.
"Regardless of what you want to propose, shouldn’t we sit down for a proper discussion?" Old Madam Wu said, "You don’t want people coming and going here pointing fingers at this house, do you?"
Wufu said, "Is that so? I’m truly sorry, but I have urgent matters to attend to!"
"You..."
"For negotiations, you should show sincerity!" Wufu’s face turned cold, "Who gave you the delusion that just because you’ve come, I must meekly adhere to your wishes and converse with you? If you want to talk, fine, wait for me to come back! Go."
She dropped the curtain, and the carriage began to move, leaving the dumbfounded group behind, gracefully departing.
"Arrogant, too arrogant!" Old Madam Wu was shaking with anger.
"Mother, what about us?"
"Wait, let’s see how she acts then." Old Madam Wu turned to wait in her carriage.
Wu Lihong was unwilling to just wait; he had to go in and wait. But before he could approach and knock on the door, he was thrown out by the guards.
