553: Wei Wei the most filial in law

Wei Wei the most filial in law

The moment she could speak again she began to slander the Huishe clan and smear Huishe Yue's good name saying that while she was living like a widow in her in-laws' clan doing her filial duty he was busy hooking up with a half-blood male.0

One can only imagine people's faces after that. Ji Yao wasn't in the mood to hear her spout nonsense so he asked someone to shut her up. Why wasn't he in a good mood? It was because Rui Fei was acting fishy lately. First, he refused to touch him. Anything short of making out was prohibited.

His reason was that he was reserving himself for the wedding night. Ji Yao found this laughable. Reserve himself for what?

The toothpaste had already been squeezed out and couldn't be put back in the tube. The milk had already been split and couldn't be put back in the carton.

When he said it Ji Yao had laughed out loud thinking he was joking but it turns out the man was as serious as a heart attack. Ji Yao was so angry that he slept with his back to him that night but by the second night, Ji Yao couldn't stay mad anymore.

In fact, he tried to seduce him but what did Rui Fei do? He clutched his lapel tightly and ran away like he was being sexually assaulted. For the past few nights, he refused to come back unless Ji Yao kept his hands to himself which wasn't going to happen.

In anger Ji Yao told him not to come back thus Rui Fei became Rui Yewan's problem. It was his room but Rui Fei was running the show.

Even now Ji Yao had no idea where he was. Anyway, this was why Ji Yao was in a horrible mood. His tail was missing and he didn't like that at all.

Qilin Luse took the initiative and walked over to shut her up but before he could get to her Huishe Xiyue took a step forward and slapped her hard across the face leaving a blossoming scarlet palm print.

The slap was so hard that it caused her to lose a couple of teeth which she spat out as she wailed in pain. Huishe Xiyue sneered before taking off Wei Wei's shoe and sock and shoving them into her mouth.

Because she hadn't changed her clothes for more than a week the socks smelt like a back alley boxing gym locker room. Her eyes stung as she choked on her own sock.

Under the Huishe clan's ill-treatment, she was only hosed down with water and not allowed to leave her cell. But even after all that she still wanted to save face than ever confess her lies.

She had even tried to ask one of the guards to send Huishe Yue a message begging him to come to see her but he didn't even come. Instead, Huishe Xiyue had sent a message saying that anything short of severing ties with her brother, Huishe Yue wouldn't be receiving her messages.

Seeing this the audience sucked in a cold breath of air. They couldn't believe that the person who had just stuffed a sock into Wei Wei's mouth was Huishe Xiyue.

Before she went missing she was the sweetest of the dragon twins. She was well known for her benevolence and as a Huishe female, she was weak with no strength to her.

Even when she was wronged she maintained a graceful and calm demeanour never showing her claws in public but now she had not only slapped her twin brother's wife in public she had also shoved a dirty sock in that woman's mouth. This was unlike her, unlike the her from fifty years ago.

It seemed the Huishe truly teamed up with the Qilin to bully people despite being enemies for thousands of generations.

"That ought to shut you up," she said as her mother poured out some liquid into her hand to sanitize them.

Huishe Shushi was extremely dissatisfied so she reprimanded her daughter. "I told you countless times that you don't have to do this with your own hands. Someone else can do it for you. You shouldn't touch dirty things," she said a little unhappy.

Huishe Xiyue was half-listening. That's because her disdainful gaze was fixed on that tear-stained face acting all pitiful to arouse the protective instincts of kind-hearted folk. She initially had no qualms with Wei Wei.

As long as she admitted her wrongs and quietly left her twin brother in peace she would have let it go. What's done is done and they couldn't do anything to change it but of course, Wei Wei didn't comply.

The volume in the main hall suddenly amplified when Qilin Kai showed up and with him was the boy Wei Wei had raised.

Who didn't know Tong Tong? For years they had endured Huishe Nan showing off his grandson as he was the only part of his son he had left. Tong Tong was the most valued person in the Huishe clan.

But now he was walking alongside Qilin Kai and from the looks of it, he didn't look like he had been wronged or forced to be by his side. Despite no evidence of coercion some still opened their mouths to speak.

One of the Fenrir clan elders spoke up, "Clan leader Nan what is this?"

"Has your relationship with the Qilin been so good that you sold your precious grand-," echoed another person in the crowd but a sharp sword belonging to Ji Yao showed up in front of him and grazed his neck.

"It has a mind of its own so choose your next words wisely," said Ji Yao his mood plummeting even more.

Qilin Hao could sense her son's destabilised emotions but couldn't do much but offer words of comfort. That's because she knew where Rui Fei was and what he had been doing. But since it was a secret she couldn't divulge the details. Anyway, Ji Yao would only have to wait a few days before finding out what his husband had been up to.

Qilin Kai obediently bowed before Ji Yao paying his respect but in truth, he hated every minute of it. He couldn't wait to go back to their original home and stay as far away as possible from his cousin and Ji Yao.

He might have been granted immunity but Qilin Hao was just as good at keeping grudges as he was. Who knows if one day she would wake up in a terrible mood and cut his throat in his sleep. Thus he wanted to stay as far away as possible. What he failed to realise was that Qilin Hao would be taking on the position of clan leader soon.

Ji Yao gestured his fingers for him to stop bowing thus Qilin Kai raised his head and declared publicly, "Tong Tong is my son with Pixiu Wei and the relationship was consensual. I humbly request his name be changed to that of the Qilin family name."

Everyone else who hadn't heard the gossip, "....."
