Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 268 - 268 To late to apologize?

268 To late to apologize?

” What!” Liu Hui Ying screamed after Zhai Tianyu who has run away from her room, she was not being hard on him but she just could not withstand the fact that he has looked at her like she was a disappointment. His gaze was one she was very familiar with and thus, she could not control the anger she felt in her chest that was burning at the moment.

” Why are you looking at me like I am doing something wrong? Who are you to judge me, just because you are the Emperor, you think you can look at me like that huh?” She shouted at the door that was left behind by Zhai Tiayu, when Nanny Gong and Qui Ai heard Liu Hui Ying scream, the two of them rushed inside the room and looked at Liu Hui Ying who seemed to be very agitated.

“Your majesty, please calm down!” Seeing that Liu Hui Ying’s emotions were not stable Nanny Gong hurried to make her lie down on the bed as she pushed Liu Hui Ying who was still shouting at the Emperor who has long left the courtyard.

” Looking at me like I am dirt on the ground? So what if I am selfish? Is there anyone who cares about me in this place? I just want to go back, what is wrong with that?” Liu Hui Ying on the other hand did not calm down instead she continued to shout as she was pushed onto the bed.

Was there anything wrong with her being selfish? Was there anything wrong with her not wanting to get involved in this mess? This was not her mess! This was not even her world, if not for that freak of an accident she would not have been dragged into this world, then what would have that man done? Wouldn’t he have to face those people who were hiding in the dark on his own anyway? But now that she was here, he wanted her to clean up his mess for him.

For what?

She had her own life, her own problems to take care of!

Liu Hui Ying breathed hard as she clenched her fist and banged it on the side of her bed as she yelled at the top of her lungs, ” I just want to go back! What’s wrong with that?”

She missed her world, she missed all the things that she could do there, yes people judged her but at least she could fight back. But now, even when she knew that she was being framed she could not do anything except lie in this bed and wait for another opportunity where she would be able to go back to her own world!

.....

At least that man had his hands and legs moving! He could do anything he wanted even without her lack of support but what about her? Her body was lying in the hospital and she could not even fight back while that old man Tao schemed against her.

” Cheating legally on his official wife is not enough? Poisoning his wife without facing any legal charges is not enough. Pushing another woman in the face of his wife and humiliating her is not enough? That man is a disappointment in himself and yet he looks at me like I am not good enough ?” She muttered furiously as she kicked the bedsheet that Nanny Gong was trying to cover her with on the floor and sat up straight.

She pointed at the door with her finger and then ordered, ” Go and pass out my orders that no dogs or the Emperor is allowed to enter my courtyard! GO!”

Nanny Gong looked at the agitated Liu Hui Ying and then turned to look at Qui Ai who was looking just as helpless but since they knew that they could not go against the Queen when she was like this, they could only lower their heads and act as if they were going to follow Liu Hui Ying’s order.

Dogs and Emperor not allowed? This entire palace belonged to the Emperor how can they bar him from not entering?

….

Zhai Tianyu was just as angry as Liu Hui Ying, he burst out of the courtyard that belonged to Liu Hui Ying and rushed back to his own pavilion, he did not even want to talk with anyone but as soon as he pushed the door off his study aside and took a step, he heard Yu Lingyun speak.

” What are you doing? She is a married woman! I am not saying that you are not allowed to fall in love with a woman but can you at least choose someone who is not covered with red flags?” His voice was pleading and Zhai Tianyu who did not expect to hear such gossip upon entering his study was stumped as he stayed at the threshold of his study, not knowing whether to go inside or not.

This was really huge! His brother was actually in love with a married woman? He did not expect his brother to have such a heavy taste, in this time and space men rushed to get a reserved and untouched woman but his brother was actually in love with a married woman. Really love knew no bounds!

But given that this was something that was related to his big brother, he did not know whether or not he should go and talk to him or just leave Yu Lingyun at it because what Yu Lingyun was saying was the right thing as well. If his brother was to fall for a married woman then their love story was doomed to fail.

Zhai Tianyu was just pondering over the fact whether he should retrace his steps, half of his anger long forgotten when he was spotted by Yu Lingyun whose legs trembled and he stuttered, ” Y…Your majesty? You…you are here?”

They were done for! Zhai Tianyu heard that his brother was after his official wife! Now, what was he going to do? Was it too late for him to kneel and apologize?
