The Princess Wei Yang

Chapter 11: Light Punishment as Warning

Chapter 11: Light Punishment as Warning

Li Xiao Ran wasn’t too old. His hair was jet black, bounded high up and wearing a yellow official’s hat. Underneath the hair was a wide forehead, further down was bushy and long brows, a pair of stern-looking eyes and his mouth was slightly pressed together, looking extremely serious. Li Wei Yang rarely saw him laughing in an easygoing manner. At the very least, she has never witnessed him laughing with her.

Li Wei Yang slowly lowered her head, hiding the emotions in her eyes. How many years has it been since she last heard Li Xiao Ran’s voice?

At this moment, an anxious voice belonging to Da furen Jiang shi also spoke up, “Zhang Le, what’s wrong with you?” At the same time, she pulled Li Zhang Le closer to her side, examining carefully from head to toe, afraid that there was something wrong with her daughter. Her eyes did not hide the restlessness and worries.

Li Zhang Le’s eyes reddened, looking pitiful and yet still enduring it. She pulled on Jiang shi’s clothes and said, “Mother, it’s so cold.”

Jiang shi hurriedly removed her coat and wrapped it around Li Zhang Le’s frame instead. Holding Zhang Le’s hands, she said, “Aiya, your hands are so cold. What happened?” She turned around, her piercing gaze stopping on Li Wei Yang.

Li Xiao Ran furrowed his brows. His eyes and voice was filled with coldness. It was also firm, with an astuteness that seemed to know everything about the situation. “You’re Wei Yang? Why did you already cause trouble just as you returned to the estate?”

Everybody’s expressions changed as they all looked at Li Wei Yang. They were no longer looking at her as if she was the San xiaojie but an alien specie. She had just returned to the estate and yet was already unfavoured by the laoye. How can she peacefully live through the days from now on?

Initially, Li Chang Xi’s face was pale as a ghost but when she realized Da furen was targeting Li Wei Yang, she was comforted. On the other hand, Li Chang Xiao had a gentle and kind personality and just as she was about to speak up, Li Chang Xi abruptly pinched her. Her eyes, which were filled with delight at other’s misery, glanced in Li Wei Yang’s direction. Then she looked over to Li Zhang Le’s dirtied dress, winked at Li Chang Xiao and gestured her to stay quiet. All she had to do was watch the scene unfold, for Da furen will definitely punish Li Wei Yang.

Li Wei Yang laughed inwardly. Before it was like this as well. In their eyes, she couldn’t even compare to the dirt underneath their feet. How pitiful of her to have blindly rushed into their arms as if they were truly her family! It was indeed laughable. As she faced these same people right now, she no longer had any feelings of pain and suffering. There was only the determination to win. So let’s bring it on because she wasn’t afraid of anyone. Looking at these bunch of chicken eggs, thinking they were something special, only to have met her – the impenetrable boulder – let’s see who was going to crash and burn!

Li Wei Yang looked at Li Xiao Ran. A gentle smile formed across her face as she slowly bowed down. “Father, it’s the first day Wei Yang returned and yet I have caused such troubles for Da jie. I am truly apologetic. Not to mention, Da jie had even helped me –” her gaze fell on Li Zhang Le’s face, eyes brimming with gratitude, “Everyone says Da jie is like a fairy. I have just returned but have already received Da jie’s kindness and concern. Compared to what others have said, she is a hundred times more kind and compassionate. But. . .” she abruptly changed the flow of the conversation as her innocent eyes turned to Li Chang Xi, “Wu meimei, you were truly careless. If you hadn’t bumped into me, Da jie wouldn’t have fallen into the pond because she was trying to help me. Why didn’t you look where you were going?”
