Qingci lay on the ground, pale and unconscious. Her wounds had become inflamed, causing a persistent high fever. While she was dazed by the fever, her lips moved slightly, and she uttered the name "Du Shuting."
Little Li stared at Qingci closely, his heart full of doubts. He quickly reported the situation to Lord Zhang.
"Du Shuting...hahaha...God is really helping me!" Zhang Ling grinned.
If he could take over the Fu family, he could save a lot of effort.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ling went to Fu’s house in person.
………………………………………………
Mr. Fu was sitting in the study, flipping through the book in his hand. Suddenly, he learned that Zhang Ling came to visit him. His face instantly became gloomy.
After Zhang Ling entered the study, he cut straight to the chase without further ado, telling the story of the Du Kingdom's little princess. As Master Fu listened, his face grew paler, beads of sweat began to form on his forehead. His hands trembled uncontrollably, and he nearly dropped the book in his hands.
As Zhang Ling spoke, Mr. Fu's eyes became more and more terrified. He widened his eyes and his lips trembled slightly.
"Zhang, Master Zhang...what do you mean?"
"Isn't our meaning clear enough?" Zhang Ling raised his eyebrows.
Zhang Ling's voice was low and full of threats: "Father Fu, your Fu family is secretly entangled with the little princess of Du Kingdom. Needless to say, you know the consequences of this behavior."
Father Fu knew Zhang Ling's power was immense, and that if he resisted, the Fu family might face annihilation. But within his heart, an unyielding fire still burned.
"Zhang Ling, I heard your threats." Father Fu's voice was weak but firm, "But you want me to obey you, that's impossible.
After a while, Fu Xiuqi, who was standing nearby, spoke up: "Master Zhang insisted that it was the Du Kingdom's little princess, Du Shuting. But how could a princess of the Du Kingdom appear in my house for no reason?"
"Master Fu?" Zhang Ling's eyes were murderous.
"Master Zhang, that's just the singer I bought with some silver. I'm going to kill her now to avoid misunderstandings." Fu Xiuqi said, taking out his sword.
"Haha, that's really interesting." Perhaps Fu Xiuqi's words were too unexpected, Zhang Ling burst into laughter.
However, amidst this tense atmosphere, a frail figure slowly approached. It was Du Shuting. Her eyes were filled with sadness and disappointment. "Xiuqi, I heard your conversation. So, for the sake of the Fu family, you actually wanted to kill me."
Fu Xiuqi wanted to explain, but Du Shuting had already turned and left: "Zhang Ling, I am willing to leave with you. Because everyone here makes me feel discouraged."
Zhang Ling and Du Shuting had met before and were both deeply impressed by each other.
Du Shuting's face was haggard, but her beauty was still striking. Her skin had lost its former luster, but gained a kind of endearing paleness, like fine porcelain, delicate and fragile.
There is a deep melancholy between her brows, and her eyes seem to tell endless stories. Her high nose bridge and slightly upturned lips form a perfect picture that makes people fall in love with her.
"Oh, so beautiful." Zhang Ling made no secret of his admiration for Du Shuting.
"Master Zhang." Fu Xiuqi couldn't help but speak coldly when she saw Zhang Ling's presumptuous eyes.
