Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1220 Not outright but brazen.

Old Su's lips lifted up in a smirk. Although he knew he could lose the game he had begun back in his time, he could still not miss the moment where he could defame Shin Tingming and get on his nerves.

Shin Tingming's gaze turned sharp as it pierced deep into the old man's bones. His fingers clenched into fists which were about to raise to slam hard on the armrest of his chair when suddenly, Chen Rui held him back.

As if already guessed his gesture, she reached out to hold his hand before patting it gently with assurance. "It's okay. Hold in it for the time. We can always retaliate at the right time." She said softly that it was just him hearing her.

Shin Tingming took a deep breath in and nodded. She was right. At the moment, getting all riled up at the words of Old Su would only prove him right. And he won't let that happen.

"You are alright now?" Chen Rui asked and seeing the man nod, she said, "Fine. Now, allow me to handle this. The ball is now in my court."

Before Shin Tingming could say a word, Chen Rui already turned to look at Old Su with an expression that could make any man regret.

"Mr. Su, although we understand you're a family and might be concerned about various things, still at this point of age you should understand where you are overstepping your boundary." She said and her words came sharp enough to warn every other person who is thinking to ask the same thing.

Old Su felt his anger boiling inside. But there was nothing he could do about it as he knew the lady who dared to look down at him was no other but Her Royal Highness herself. In no way could he dare to retort to her words. So, holding up the best politeness, he bowed his head slightly in apology as he said, "I apologize for making it sound like that, Your Highness. From the next time, I will keep a note to not come so outright."

Chen Rui chuckled softly but openly. "Haha … that's a wrong choice of word, Mr. Su. What you said was not called outright but it's more synonymous with brazen. Anyway, you don't have to make so much effort in noting your attitude next time, Mr. Su, for this time itself, I will make sure to give you a habit of not coming out of your line."

She said and her tone came like an insult that twisted the nerves of the man in the same level as he did earlier with Shin Tingming. Chen Rui knew well the weakness that this hypocrite ancient man held, it wasn't hard for her to take revenge for her husband. She just had to make up her mind and it was already done. After all, it's not tough to hurt a man's ego, especially when it's no other but a species of a woman doing so.

Chen Rui looked at the man as her expression became more obvious. And just when Old Su was about to speak again, putting a smile over her lips, Chen Rui didn't allow him.

"Mr. Su, please sit back in your place. The story to prove my relationship with His Highness, from here on, I will take the case. As for presenting the proofs and witnesses, I would do that in due time if needed." She said, and swallowing his pride pathetically, the man had no choice but to sit down.

Once Chen Rui saw that the man has taken his seat back, she turned to look at the others. Her expression changed into that of disappointment. "I never knew that even after so many years, we would have to prove the integrity of our relationship. But anyway, since the situation has arrived and it's about our daughter we are talking about, I won't step back before getting her what she deserves."

"If you all have remembered well after three years of our marriage, the news of me bearing the first child of the family has spread across the family. We were happy until one day everyone came to know that we had lost her right before the child could take the birth. And that child was no other but Li Xue. We came to know about this recently when we met one of our old acquaintances, Liu Hua."

"Liu Hua was an actress by profession and had big aspirations back in time. She wanted to achieve the heights of success without working on her merits. I don't know how we offended her and how she executed her plans, but she was successful in taking our girl away from us and bribing the nurse. It was not until we saw Li Xue with our own eyes that we came to understand that she is no other but the child we lost."

"Back the time when we lost her, we wanted to share our grief with you all, but we also had the responsibility to carry out as the king and queen of the state. And for that, we have to force ourselves to forget everything. But look, today, what did we earn in return? It's the distrust of you all, for whom actually we sacrificed."

Chen Rui narrated, taking her time. Although the story she framed was full of flaws that anyone could easily pinpoint, still the trap of guilt and emotion she threw was enough to keep people captivated.

Chen Rui has never been the person to play with people's weak nerves. So, when actually she did it today, no one could doubt her. Instead, with her words, they all can feel her pain. The people felt guilty for doubting their king and queen.

Chen Rui gazed at everyone and when she saw people becoming empathetic to her, she didn't hold back. Instead, she shot the ball for the final time, so that there would remain no trace of doubt anywhere.

"I can understand that since you all can doubt us for once, there could come another time as well. After all, proof and witnesses are all that anyone would need to believe. So here, I would like to provide you with the proofs and witness, so later no one would have any doubt in my daughter's existence." She said as her eyes sharply turned to look at someone at a distance. And it was clear from her gaze that her words were directed at someone in particular.
