Reincarnated In A Shitty Love Game

Chapter 122

122 Chapter 122 – Duke, to the rescue

“Who are you, young girl? Who taught you to talk like that?” still sitting on top of the assassin, lady Perlin was glaring at Clarina.

“This .... I only wanted to help,” Clarina acted her part, her limpid eyes teared up immediately like a fucking tap. “I didn’t mean any harm.”

“Accident or not. It’s an offense to talk to my nice like that. because she is Feng Mei Rofles. Not just any lady you can look down upon. Don’t act pitifully. I’ve seen a lot like you,” as she said this lady Perlin glazed towards Rina who had gone unconscious. “I have learned not to fall for tricks like that,”

Clarina’s face twisted with embarrassment.

Feng peered at Clarina with a soft glare. ‘yes I’m not just anyone she can offend.’ She pressed the sword on her throat until a small drop of blood dripped down her fair neck. “get out, Clarina. Never let me see you again.”

Clarina gritted her teeth and ran out with her blond hair fluttering behind her.

Feng let out a loud sigh. ‘shit what was that? was it a coincidence? I don’t think so....’

She lifted up the broken door and placed it on the opened door hinge, the door wouldn’t stay up. so she moved a dressing table close to hold it down. “Aunt, let’s wait for uncle,”

“hmm...” lad Perlin stood up arranging the ruffled of her skirt. Her slender hands touched the scorched parts of the beautiful silk. “too bad its brunt. This was my favorite dress,”

.....

Saying so, she casually plopped down on the sofa in an unladylike fashion.

This was the first time Feng had ever seen her behave so.... freely.

She walked up to her. “are you okay?”

“I’m fine dear... somehow dealing with her has lifted a weight off my shoulders.” She sighed loudly peering up at the painted ceiling.

Feng was quite curious as to how Rina was relayed to the lady but she didn’t wish to ask. She sat there silently.

“She was the girl I adopted before my boys,”

“w-what?” her head snapped her way. ‘What game plot is this?’

“My husband found her in a small brothel. She was being sold as a slave. He took pity on her and brought her back. we didn’t have any kids you see. It’s all because of me...” she placed a hand on her stomach. “Many healed have told me that I can never have kids. Having one will kill me...... I gave up hope until I saw her that day. She was such a petite little child. she was just as small as you were.”

Tears rolled down her pale, ash covered cheeks. lady Perlin chuckled softly. “oh, how I was wrong. She did not want to be our family instead she......”

She couldn’t finish her words. She hid her face with her hand and sobbed silently.

Feng leaned close to her and hugged her tightly. “It was never your fault aunt. you loved her but she didn’t want that kind of love. Don’t cry about that... it’s not worth it.”

“no... let me cry. I want to relieve my Heart of this feeling today once and for all,”

Lady Perlin sobbed silently wiping her face with her kerchief.

After ten minutes, her tears had dried off. “I’m done crying over her... lest go bring Elle out. the poor child must be breathing in dust bunnies down there,”

Feng cussed in her mind. She had completely forgotten that Elle was under the bed. She rushed there along with her aunt to see Elle snoring softly.

“All that sounds count wake her up. She’s like a log,” chuckling lady Perlin dragged her out by her leg and carefully arranged her tussled-up hair.

Seeing her affectionate gaze, Feng held her hand. “You can always adopt another girl. This time I will help test the girl’s intentions.” She said through gritted teeth. Of course, she didn’t want the duke’s family to have another child but lady Perlin seemed to crave having a little girl.

“no. now I have Elle and you. my desire for a little girl to dress up has been culled.” She lifted Elle into her arms and hugged her delicately. “I can dress you guys up and hug you and kiss you all I want. Ethan and Aiden hate kisses.”

“they secretly love it,” Feng added with a small smile.

“do you think so?”

“I know so. Ethan has a small smile every time you kiss his forehead. But on the outside, he would whine that you are smothering him.”

Lady Perlin sat on the carpeted floor with Elle in her arms. “really? That’s great then,”

The door was banged open, pushing the dresser down. Feng immediately sat up with the sword in hand.

Loud footsteps came to the bedroom in a hurry.

“Perlin!” duke Parlov panted loudly as he looked around frantically.

“honey” lady Perlin glanced back at him with a soft smile. “What took you so long,”

“oh thank god.” Duke rushed to her and hugged her tightly. “Are you hurt anywhere?” he gently wiped off the soot off her face. soon his eyes fell on Elle. “What is wrong with the child?” her pulled her carefully into his arms

“She is just asleep dear.” Lady Perlin helped wipe his sweaty brow with her stained kerchief. “did you rush over here,”

“I wanted for you at home. When I noticed that you were late I thought of coming to pick you up. who knew......” he hugged her again. “Thank god....”

Lady Perlin chuckled. “You have to thank Feng. She was the one who protected us like a brave warrior,” she gazed at her with a soft smile.

suddenly being put in the center of attention Feng was slightly stumped. “its all because of this OP sword.” she held it up with difficulty. “ow,” she lowered it rubbing her shoulders.

“What is it!” lady Perlin pushed her husband away and crawled over to her. “does your hand hurt? Did you nick yourself? Oh god... I knew I shouldn’t have given it to you,”

“no aunt, its just heavy...” Feng awkwardly smiled as lady Perlin prodded her arms.

Duke Parlov moved closer and examined her as well. “She is good. I bet the sword’s weight pit a strain on her arms. A bit of rest will do her good.”

Elle who was in his arms started to stir.

“hmmm uncle.... Why are you here...” she wiped at her eyes and sat up in his lap. She looked around the room in shock. “What happened in here?!”

Everyone gazed at her astonished look and laughed out loud.

“oh, its nothing, dear.” Lady Perlin kissed her forehead.

“let’s lead home,” duke stood up and helped them all up.

Feng handed the sword over to him.

As soon as it reached his hand it turned into a small pendant. He once again gave it to her wife.

‘OP sword... I will definitely get an OP sword next time for sure...’

Suddenly she was lifted up in the air.

“ahh!” squealing, she held onto the sturdy arms holding her. “u-uncle... I can walk on my own.” She whispered blushing.

Duke’s handsome face was too close.

He gazed at her with a soft smile. “don’t move around. we will get home soon. I’ll get the cook to make your favorite parfait,”

Just as he said this her stomach growled loudly.

Duke’s cold face softened up. “and I’ll allow you to eat a bit more candy today. Just today.”

Feng blushed. ‘I’m being treated like a kid. it’s all because of you, stupid stomach... why did you have to embarrass me so.’ She held her small tummy with a pout.

They walked out of the inn which was in a complete mess.

The inn keeper and the coach man and every single one of the servants were killed. Some of their faces were burned off. the stanch made her grimace slightly.

A large hand suddenly covered her eyes. “don’t look at dirty things.”

“Okay,” she obediently stayed in his arms.

As soon as they exited the inn, duke removed his hand from her face. waiting outside was a stark white horse. It neighed as soon as it saw the duke.

He first held his wife and Elle up the horse and regally he climbed up the stead.

“Perlin hold on. hiya! Go!”

the steed neighed softly and dashed off into the roadway. They reached the mansion in no time.

The horse was that fast!

Right out the gates, they noticed a golden carriage waiting there. Duke frowned slightly. “what is Frowe’s carriage doing here?”

“it must be that unruly guy,” lady Perlin scoffed.

“Did he misbehave with you?”

“No, just a bit annoying. He was talking rudely to the kids,” she hugged his waist.

Claudius jumped off his carriage and bowed to them. “Duke, duchess sorry for my previous misconduct. I didn’t see you. and... I genuinely want to be friends with your sons. That is my only intention,”

Duke got down and lowered Feng down to the ground.

Claudius looked at her with a frown. “Why are you covered in soot? Did you roll on the ground or something”

“Yeah, I especially enjoy that,” she sarcastically remarked.

Duke helped lady Perlin down and took Elle from her arms. “Where are the boys?”

“oh I completely forgot!” lady Perlin exclaimed loudly. “Honey they are at school still. Can you go pick them up? I fear someone might try to hurt them.”

“Hmm go in. I’ll pick them up,” saying this he jumped on his horse and rode off.

Feng looked at him in awe. ‘Wow...... I really want to be OP like him...’
