"Why should I save you? You've always escaped with all sorts of excuses in the past. Now that I've caught you here, you can't just say that Rujin fell down by herself this time, can you?"
“Nongying…you.” Hua Yiru never expected that Hua Nongying would speak to them like this in front of outsiders.
"Rujin, the sisters know they were wrong and will never do it again. Please ask them to let us go!"
Seeing that Hua Nongying wouldn't help them, Hua Yiru turned her gaze to Hua Rujin, her eyes filled with threat. Hua Rujin had seen this kind of threat countless times and knew what she meant. Hua Rujin turned her face away, ignoring her, her heart turning cold to the extreme. She also hoped that she could end this life of being bullied by them every day.
"It's no use begging her. Take her away." Tian Haoze coldly gave the order.
"yes."
"Walk."
Without further ado, the men escorted the four women toward the island lord's mansion.
These past few days, Hua Yubo had been extremely busy with the ship issue, and his relationship with Bei Mingyaowei had soured because of the ship bombing incident, leaving him in a terrible mood.
Seeing Bei Minghaotian and the others enter, and noticing Hua Rujin's appearance, they instantly understood what was going on.
"What's going on? Why did the Demon Lord and the Heavenly Prince have to come out in person? Fei'er, what's wrong with you?" Hua Yubo looked at the dying Hua Lingfei with a worried expression, but Hua Rujin ignored him.
"Isn't the island lord asking a question he already knows the answer to?"
Nangong Ziyan answered first, and seeing Hua Yubo's indifferent expression as he looked at Hua Rujin, she felt utterly disheartened.
"What does Miss Nangong mean by this?"
"Hehe! What do you mean?" Nangong Ziyan sneered a few times, her eyes filled with disdain as she looked at Hua Yubo.
"Zi Yan finally understands why Ru Jin has been bullied by the three sisters all these years. It's because the Flower Island Master is blind, not in her eyes, but in her heart."
Nangong Ziyan glared at Hua Yubo and said angrily. Although she didn't want to meddle in other people's family affairs, she really couldn't stand it. As a father, he was really unworthy. They were her own flesh and blood, but he didn't receive the same treatment.
"Ziyan, let's go back!" Hua Rujin tugged at Nangong Ziyan's clothes, her heart aching terribly. She had appeared before this father with injuries before, but he had never uttered a word of concern.
"Rujin..." Nangong Ziyan did not want to let the matter rest so easily.
"Ziyan, in this life, no matter what kind of relatives I have or what kind of sisters I meet, this is the last time Rujin will meet them. I will never come back here again. Before, in Rujin's heart, being able to be a family with them, no matter what kind of house Rujin lived in or what kind of food she ate every day, Rujin always cherished this family affection. Rujin often thought that life is only a short hundred years. After this life, we may never be a family again. But now, Rujin has truly let go."
Hua Rujin wiped away her tears, looked at Hua Yubo quietly, and instantly burst into laughter through her tears. With her last glimmer of hope shattered, she felt even more relieved.
"Fine! If you've thought it through, I won't demand an explanation from Island Master Hua. But these four women bullied you today, are you really going to let them off so easily?"
Nangong Ziyan hates people who bully others by taking advantage of their power. If she lets them off the hook today, they will only become more aggressive tomorrow.
“Nangong Ziyan and Hua Rujin are not pursuing this matter anymore, yet you are still meddling in other people’s business.”
Ximen Chunxue yelled at Nangong Ziyan.
"Yes! I just like to meddle in other people's business, is it any of your business?" Nangong Ziyan glanced at Ximen Chunxue with a smile. Seeing her timid appearance, she suddenly felt very happy.
"Rujin, isn't it too heartless of you to say that? You haven't even let Father finish speaking before you're making such a conclusion?"
Hua Yubo walked towards Hua Rujin with a guilty look on his face. He was somewhat moved when he saw the bloody five-finger mark on her face.
“Island Master Hua, compared to the treatment I’ve received in this island master’s mansion over the past eighteen years, you are not heartless at all. Here, apart from Brother Ying, no one treats me like a human being. My low cultivation level is not my fault. I have tried my best, but it’s useless. Although everything I do cannot satisfy everyone, I will never lose my true nature to please anyone. No matter how much I give, I will only meet people who will be grateful. My sincere heart has never been cherished. So, from today onwards, I will live for myself.”
Hua Rujin said with a happy smile.
Tian Haoze felt a pang of heartache seeing her like this. He reached out and took her hand, wanting her to know that he was still there for her.
