His Rui

Chapter 384 - Huiqing Will Do Everything For Yi Clan

"What are you trying to do?"

Yi Huiqing asked Zhao Zhang Wei as soon as he turned around.

However, Zhao Zhang Wei didn't answer her question.

He stepped forward in the direction of Yi Huiqing while his gaze didn't move away from her face. Yi Huiqing frowned when she noticed his behavior.

She unconsciously gulped when Zhao Zhang Wei stepped too closer to her.

"Y…you…stay away. What are you trying to do?"

Yi Huiqing had thought that Zhao Zhang Wei would stop, however he only stepped forward and said nothing.

Feeling his warm breaths on her face, she stepped back.

However, the dog-man took another step forward.

She couldn't help but look at him with a speechless expression.

'What in the hell do you want?'

She again took a step back, however it didn't seem to work in her favor again as the dog-man took another step forward…standing too close to her.

And that was what continued for the next few seconds.

With every step Yi Huiqing took backward, Zhao Zhang Wei would step forward.

It was only when Yi Huiqing suddenly felt something colliding against her back, she understood the seriousness of the situation.

She turned her head a little to check what this stupid obstruction was only to find out that it was a wall.

Yi Huiqing looked at the wall with a little bit of resentment in her eyes.

Who made this stupid wall here?

"Afraid?"

The deep voice of Zhao Zhang Wei made her turn to look at him and she narrowed her eyes. However, Zhao Zhang Wei didn't seem to step back or feel intimidated by her expressions.

At this moment, he didn't even find them cute.

Because he was angry.

Very angry at the woman in front of him.

So angry that he wanted to kiss her senselessly and then engrave himself in her mind and heart.

Was it possible?

His eyes unconsciously went darker with desire when all these thoughts flashed inside his mind.

So conflicted he was at this moment.

He unconsciously leaned down closer to Yi Huiqing's face. He wanted to soothe himself with her sweet scent. He wanted to kiss those beautiful lips.

However, before he could touch those lips, the owner of those lips turned his head away.

Zhao Zhang Wei's body froze. Even Yi Huiqing whose head was turned away didn't have much of an expression on her face.

Until now, she had learnt that rejection just doesn't settle well with Zhao Zhang Wei.

Remembering how they had fought the last two times when she had resisted against his touch, she felt a shiver running down her spine.

She didn't want to fight with him anymore.

She was very tired of all this. However, he perhaps couldn't understand it.

Sure enough, she heard a chuckle from Zhao Zhang Wei's side. She was very sure that the chuckle must not be because he was finding something humorous in their current situation.

Zhao Zhang Wei chuckled bitterly.

Looking at the slightly trembling body of Yi Huiqing as she tried ti shrink herself in the wall almost, pain flashed in his eyes.

Was she so afraid of him?

Was there any difference in him and Zhao Zhuang Chen for her? Zhao Zhang Wei wondered suddenly.

The remembrance of Zhao Zhuang Chen and whatever happened yesterday suddenly made Zhao Zhang Wei clearer.

He looked at his dear wife and said bitterly

"Here I thought that you don't feel afraid of anything."

Yi Huiqing frowned not liking Zhao Zhang Wei's tone even a bit.

She turned to glare at him coldly, however, all the courage inside her drained when she saw how cold Zhao Zhang Wei's eyes looked.

Feeling intimidated, she unconsciously tried to move away from him, however, before she could do so Zhao Zhang Wei held her hand and put it firmly on the wall keeping her at a place.

"When I had asked you to leave with Daiyu, why did you not leave? Why did you bow her head in front of him?"

His blood boiled when he remembered how easily she had bowed her head in front of Zhao Zhuang Chen. Did she even know that she only triggered his disgusting thoughts about her by doing that?

"You should not have been here in the first place when I had asked you not to come."

He said coldly.

At this moment, Yi Huiqing didn't feel intimidated by whatever Zhao Zhang Wei said. She was equally irked when she remembered how Zhao Zhuang Chen had been looking at her.

Her eyes didn't have any emotion as she heard Zhao Zhang Wei saying this and that until….he crossed his threshold in his anger.

"Tell me …do you hate me so much? Do you hate me so much that just to go against me you can bow your head in front of that disgusting man?"

That was the only reason Zhao Zhang Wei could think of behind Yi Huiqing's arrival even though he had asked her not to come.

She was angry at him so she didn't want to obey him.

Yi Huiqing, on the other hand, scoffed when she heard his words.

"Don't give so much importance to yourself."

She said without any emotion on her face and eyes. Zhao Zhang Wei who had been angry just a few moments ago was left speechless by her words.

However, as if that was not enough, Yi Huiqing continued

"You think that you can manage everything here just by telling them that I was sick, huh?"

She asked Zhao Zhang Wei and without giving him any chance to answer her question, she told him.

"Then that is your misunderstanding. I was sent a letter by the Emperor himself who indirectly blamed for whole this fiasco."

Pointing her finger at Zhao Zhang Wei's emotionless face she then said

"You might not care what they do to you or me but I do care what they will do to my Clan if I didn't follow their orders."

As she said these words, Yi Huiqing could feel something thick inside her throat. Perhaps it was her helplessness that she was feeling now.

How helpless she was!

Did she like to bow in front of a man who was looking at her with a lustful gaze?

No! But she didn't have any choice.

The letter sent to her by the Emperor mentioned Yi Clan in a very meticulous way…in a way that only she, who knew how much danger in her clan and Li Clan was, could understand it.

It meant that if any such fight happened in between the two princes again because of her then the Emperor would have to take some action against Yi Clan.

It was threat to her that no matter what she had to attend this dinner and make the things right between the two princes.

Staring at nothing in particular, Yi Huiqing whispered more likely to herself

"I will do anything to save my clan ….anything I can do."

After saying this, she walked past silent Zhao Zhang Wei and then left the room.

While the silent second prince continued to stand there with an emotionless face.
