"Gu Ruochen, the richest man, is exactly my husband’s family," Aunt Yu spoke with unmistakable smugness in her tone, as if waiting for the admiration from everyone.

The wife of the richest man under the heavens, what a glorious title.

Who would have thought, Long Rui merely said lightly, "I wondered who it was, just a concubine."

"You...!" Aunt Yu’s face turned red. The identity of a concubine, she thought, would only be highlighted back at the manor, not expecting it to be poked at outside as well.

Long Rui continued coldly, "Aunt Yu, this time I won’t argue with you. Next time, don’t anger the Princess Consort, making her hurt her hand while hitting you; it pains me."

"You... you...!"

These words nearly made Aunt Yu faint from anger. She was the victim, hadn’t even demanded an explanation, yet the one who hit complained of a sore hand; truly bullying.

Long Rui ignored her, holding Xuexue’s waist, "Dear wife, let’s go back to the manor and apply some ointment. Look at you, your hand is all red from hitting. It pains me to watch."

Xuexue laughed and said, "Okay!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Long Rui holding Xuexue’s waist, leapt towards the horses not far away...

Aunt Yu stood there, having been beaten for nothing, watching Long Rui take Xuexue away, gritting her teeth with hatred, yet helpless.

Seeing Aunt Yu’s twisted expression, the maid cautiously advised, "Concubine, let’s go back too!"

"You useless servants, just wait, I’ll skin you when we get back," Aunt Yu, filled with rage, could only vent to servants.

Aunt Yu, who left the house charming, now was beaten to a mess by Xuexue. Her hair turned into a bird’s nest, clothes all disheveled, those were fine. The key was, her proud, peerless beauty was unbearable to look at, turning into a pig’s head, even the features were unclear.

"Hehehe...! Ugly freak, ugly freak, another ugly freak," suddenly, a sharp laugh rang out in mid-air.

Everyone looked up, it turned out to be the Princess Consort of War Prince’s pet.

Aunt Yu, about to get on the sedan to see the doctor back at the manor, became furious upon seeing this, not only was she bullied, even a bird dared, truly unreasonable,

So, she decided to vent her anger on this bird, turning to the maids, "Go catch that bird quickly, there will be big rewards."

"Yes!"

The maids, upon hearing, immediately appeared to be injected with adrenaline. Although the Princess Consort of War Prince was skilled in martial arts and fierce, they wouldn’t dare provoke her, but surely not afraid of a bird.

All rolled up their sleeves, preparing to catch this bird to atone for their sins to Aunt Yu.

Some looked for ladders, others for bamboo poles, all busy and bustling. Aunt Yu detested Xuexue, determined to catch the bird for revenge, even called upon commoners to join in, generously promising whoever catches the bird will be rewarded ten taels of gold.

"Wow...!"

Upon hearing this, the commoners erupted. Ten taels of gold was no small amount; their lifetime savings wouldn’t be that much.

Initially, they worried about offending War Prince by catching the bird. Upon closer thought, it was just the Princess Consort’s pet.

Driven by greed, some began to stir.

Catching a bird gets you ten taels of gold, where else would you find such a deal?

In an instant, the streets were filled with people chasing after the bird.

Humans are terrifying; for ten taels of gold, they all came to catch it, usually calling War Prince their guardian angel, but now forgotten for gold, all a bunch of greedy folks.
