Chapter 666 - Cannot Show Mercy

Huo Jin had kept the speed of the horse nominal. The sky had turned darker, and the redness had disappeared from the sky. They both soon reached outside the Wang Residence. Huo Jin got down from the horse first and then, brought Yin Na down.

The personal attendant of Yin Na was shocked to see her in that state. She would definitely be given floggings if Wang Fuxing found out about that. Huo Jin took Yin Na inside the house and ordered her servant to bring lukewarm water into a vessel.

He took her to the room and made her sit on the chaise. Yin Na did not meet his gaze and kept her head low. Huo Jin got on his knees and grabbed both of her hands. He caressed them and asked, "What did he do to you?" He gazed at her and found she had started to cry. He saw the scratches on the back of her hands.

He moved his hand towards her right hand and moved the sleeve up. Her wrist had the impression of fingers around it. The personal attendant placed the water vessel on the table and quickly knelt down.

"Forgive me, Miss. I should not have let you go alone. It is my fault that you ended up this way. Please punish me," she urged her.

"Leave us alone. Inform me when General Wang will be home," Huo Jin told her. She stood up and wiped the tears from her cheeks. Bowing before Yin Na, she took gradual back steps and soon left the chamber.

Huo Jin stood up and soaked the cotton fabric into the water. Draining out the excess of water from it, he came back to Yin Na and again got on his knees. He wiped her hands gently.

"I shouldn't have gone out. He tried to--" her voice quivered and she paused. Huo Jin peered into her eyes which had turned red.

"It was not your fault," Huo Jin told her. "Such a beast shall not be allowed to roam outside this way. Though, I am angry at you. You should have told General Wang. What if Prince Wanxi was not present there, then what have you done?" Huo Jin kept his tone polite.

Yin Na started to cry profusely and put both her palms on her face. Huo Jin caressed her arm and told her to calm down. Yin Na put her hands down and sobbed. Huo Jin then sat beside her and wiped her face gently. "You can tell me what he did," he told her. "I must know that so that I can ask His Majesty to give him the harshest punishment," affirmed Huo Jin.

"I went to find you and thought you must be in the market. I took that route because I saw Zhou Xuweng. I had no idea that he had seen me," Yin Na replied. She then gradually narrated the entire incident to him.

Huo Jin was furious to know that he pulled Yin Na by her hair and even pointed a sword at her neck. He hugged her and caressed her hair. "You don't need to look for me, Yin Na. If today anything had happened to you, then how would I have faced myself?" He questioned her.

Yin Na buried her face in his chest as she started to cry again. After a while, both of them withdrew back from each other. Huo Jin wiped the tears from her cheeks using his thumb. "Would you like to rest for some time?" He asked her.

"I don't think that I can rest. That scene is still moving in front of my eyes," Yin Na truthfully told him. Huo Jin nodded his head.

"Shall I narrate a story to you? You shall take some rest. That's important for you," he advised her. "Go to the bed and I will narrate the story from here," Huo Jin stated. In his eyes, she was still a young girl.

"Huo Jin, I don't want to sleep," Yin Na said. She lowered her head and fidgeted with her fingers. "What if he again came to trouble me?" She mumbled.

"Prince Wanxi has taken him to the Palace. I don't think that he will ever see another day in his life," Huo Jin pronounced. "Prince Wanxi will definitely tell the Emperor and he will not spare him. Also, General Wang is in the Palace. After knowing that Zhou Xuweng tried to openly harass you, he will himself ask for the harshest punishment. You don't need to be scared of him anymore," Huo Jin gave her various stances.

"I again created troubles for Brother Wang and others," Yin Na said when they both heard the voice.

"Elder Master Wang is here!"

Both of them stood up from the chaise. Huo Jin quickly stepped away from Yin Na. The doors opened and Wang Fuxing entered inside.

"Yin Na, my child!" Wang Fuxing called her name and walked to her.

"Father," she bowed before him.

"I was informed that a lowly man molested you. The Sixth Prince saved you. Am I right?" Wang Fuxing asked her. Yin Na nodded her head.

"Yes, Fa-father," she replied with a stutter.

Wang Fuxing looked at Huo Jin. "Prepare a carriage for me. I will demand a death sentence for the man who touched my daughter and also lifetime imprisonment for his entire family from His Majesty," Wang Fuxing commanded Huo Jin.

"Father," Yin Na interrupted. "There is no need to ask for the punishment for his family. They did nothing wrong," She requested her father.

Huo Jin agreed with the words of Yin Na.

"Prepare a carriage for me. I have to go to the Palace," Wang Fuxing told Huo Jin, who bowed and walked out of the chamber.

Wang Fuxing placed his hand over Yin Na's head. "That person is the reason for the downfall of his family. I cannot show mercy on him or his family," Wang Fuxing affirmed and ordered the personal attendant to take care of Yin Na behind his back.. He then walked out of the chamber in anger.
