Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1331 Do you think royals hold any less?

　　After a few more strikes, Zhen Qinrou was no longer able to take the hits on the back of her leg. Feeling her knees weak, she was about to fall with a light head when suddenly a sharp pang ran across her cheeks. Her eyes shot open when she glared at the bodyguard at his audacity. But before she could yell or scream at him, Feng Shufen's cold voice interrupted her thoughts. 

　　  "Seeing you coming here to confess your sins with such pride, it was not hard to tell that you didn't fear death. Maybe you took your death too easily that you were no longer scared of anything. So, I thought to change the course of your thoughts and let you realize both fear and pain of death." 

　　His words came chillingly cold, almost surprising everyone in the room. Zheng Qinrou couldn't help but feel bone stiffening at his tone. All this while she was still able to maintain herself but now that she had heard him say his plans, she could no longer keep herself composed. 

　　"S-Shufen, don't act rashly. I am still the wife of your father. What are you planning to do with me?" She asked with a stuttering tone before turning to Yu Hao to plead, "Yu Hao, will you not say anything? Stop him. Tell him that I am your wife and he can't do this to me." 

　　Even though she pleaded it like that, she knew well that if Feng Yu Hao would have wanted to help her, he would have done it by now. Since he was still silent, it only meant one thing. She now had no chance with him. 

　　"Ah!" She winced when another slap came on the other cheek, following with another on the previous one. Her skin grew red as the stinging pain increased. "Shufen, stop it now. Ah, it's hurting."

　　"You tried to hurt her, didn't you?"

　　"That was … I … I miscalculated the things, Shufen. But isn't she fine? Why do you have to be ruthless for her?" Zheng Qinrou just couldn't understand. Furthermore, at the moment she wanted anything to stop the pain that was getting inflicted on her. 

　　Feng Shufen looked at her with disdain before scoffing and scanning around the relatives to say, "That's to let you and others know that I wouldn't even bear to take a thought of someone hurting her." His gaze came to stop at his mother meaningfully towards the end. 

　　The relatives understood what he meant and had no plans of putting their hands on Li Xue anymore. But Shufen's punishment seemed too much to them. So, not able to take it anymore, they turned to speak to Feng Yu Hao. 

　　But before they could even begin, the old man raised his hand to shrug them off. "Fengs has always been quite strict towards the harm coming to the family member. Even though Shufen's ways are ruthless, he and his family have suffered with all of us watching. None of us stand in a position to speak. Not even me." he said and then turned his back towards Zhen Qinrou. Up until now, her face was all swollen with cuts appearing on both corners of her lips. She looked ugly.

　　Zhen Qinrou was brutally tortured in front of everyone but no one spoke for her. Not like she deserved people standing on her side. Soon she was almost at the stage where she could no longer take the beating. Just when she was about to lose consciousness, Yun Yuchun's voice rang in the room. 

　　"Enough now." She said and with her words like that the men stopped. "Take her away and ask a doctor to look at her injuries. Healthify her before continuing with the torture." 

　　Yun Yuchun stared at her son, but Feng Shufen not once cared to speak to her. All this while she was waiting for him to stop his men, but he never did. And it was then she realized that she no longer knew his son the way she thought she knew him. He was ruthless, she knew but she didn't know his extent. She had known his love for Li Xue but then again, she never got to know the extent he held in his love and for his love. 

　　The men turned to look at Feng Shufen for his orders and when they didn't see him speaking, they could only resume their job again. 

　　Seeing them raising their hands once again, Yun Yuchun spoke, "I said that has been enough for today. Take her away." 

　　From behind Qi Shuai understood the seriousness of the matter and spoke, "Follow Madam's words. Take her away. What are you waiting for?" And on his say, the men at once picked the woman up from the floor and left. 

　　Once they were gone, Yun Yuchun turned to look at Shufen and was about to speak to him. But the latter showed no interest. Turning on to Qi Shuai, he said, "You know what you have to do next, right?" 

　　Qi Shuai nodded. "I will ask everyone out. Don't worry. You can go and look for Xiao Xue first." He said, and Feng Shufen was ready to turn to walk out when suddenly someone's rushed footsteps were heard, 

　　His brows tugged in a frown as he saw a maid appearing with a pale face. Her head dripping with blood, 

　　"Y-Young Master, l-little young miss … she …" 

　　"Where is WeiWei?" 

　　"M-Master, she was playing in the forest garden and I was there with her. But t-then suddenly someone hit my head from behind. I lost consciousness. And now when I woke, she was not there. I-I have searched all around but she is nowhere to be found." 

　　The maid said, and Feng Shufen's whole body stood there frozen. Qi Shuai was also taken aback. People around were also stunned. Feng Yu Hao turned to look at the maid with an ashen face and was about to ask her to speak properly when suddenly Feng Yi Lan and Shin You Jun also came rushing in with concerned expressions.

　　"Brother, Li Xue is nowhere around. I have looked for her everywhere, but she is not there. Not in the flower garden. Not in the forest garden. Neither around the waterfall nor around anywhere. She is simply nowhere." Feng Yi Lan said breaking into pants. 

　　Earlier when Feng Yi Lan has gone out to look for Li Xue, Shin You Jun had also followed her. But not finding his sister anywhere around, his expression was also grim. Looking coldly at Feng Shufen, he said, "I have called our butler and asked him already.  She has not gone to the palace as well. If she reaches there I will be informed, if not you better be prepared." His words held warning that no one understood but Shufen did, that too very well. 

　　But his warning was not his concern at the moment. His concern was his wife and his daughter. Both were not around and nowhere to be found. He didn't speak any other words and at once rushed out. Qi Shuai followed him. 

　　Suddenly from the team relatives, someone spoke. "Both Li Xue and WeiWei are not to be found. Could it be that Li Xue has run, taking the girl with her?" 

　　"How could she do that? Although she has suffered a lot, the little one is still Feng. How could she take her away from the family?" 

　　"Did she think that she would be able to bring her up on her own? She is just a model; her earnings could never be compared to what the Feng family could offer her. Such a loss." 

　　They presumed and their presumptions irked the nerves of Shin You Jun. Not able to take their words, he roared, "Heh! Which fortune are you boasting about? Do you think our royal family holds any less? She is one of us. Even without the title of Feng, she could live better than anyone in this world." 

　　He said and his words silenced each of the relatives who were speaking before. Feng Yi Lan also couldn't help but look condemn-ly at them before reaching out to pat the shoulders of the young boy. "Don't mind their words? They simply don't hold any ground, less talk about knowledge. They just know how to talk absurdly at the worst times. We need to go and search for Li Xue instead." 

　　She said, and Shin You Jun understood her. Nodding, he at once agreed and said, "Fine, I will go and give the call to my father. He would have better efficient ways to search for her." He said and at once walked out to make the call. 

　　While behind the Feng relatives were all dumbfounded. They have heard the Crown Prince mentioned as one of them twice. It couldn't be wrong. But then was Li Xue really from the royal family? How can that be possible?

　　Outside, while Qi Shuai followed Feng Shufen, he asked in a hesitant voice, "Shufen, do you think Li Xue would have taken WeiWei away from here?"
