Evil Prince, Come Play With Me

Chapter 591 Are You Done Living?

“Those people will be dead by the time he calms down from his fury.” Gu Bailu certainly couldn’t just stand by.

“Then I’ll go with you.” Though scared, Qian’er couldn’t let Gu Bailu face him alone.

Gu Bailu hesitated for a moment, but didn’t say anything, and used a teleportation rune to take her and Qian’er to the main courtyard.

As soon as she arrived, she heard blood-curdling screams, and saw some servants kneeling in front of the garden.

A man was lying on a bench as he was beaten with a stick as thick as the width of a bowl. He screamed in agony every time the stick hit him.

Gu Bailu recognized him as the butler who had sent her the plum blossoms.

He was the steward with the highest status among the servants in the crown prince’s residence. It was said that Lu Fenying trusted him deeply as he had worked here since he was young.

He could make decisions on everything in the residence as long as they didn’t affect Lu Fenying.

So, he had moved a couple of plum blossoms without reporting it to Lu Fenying, because he didn’t think it was a big deal.

However, it turned out to be a disaster for him.

When Lu Fenying looked at the plum blossoms and found that some of them were missing, he instantly flew into a rage.

In fact, the missing plum blossoms did nothing to mar the beauty of the garden at all. Without a closer look, one wouldn’t notice that any were missing.

Yet Lu Fenying had noticed.

The butler hadn’t seen it coming at all. Usually, the crown prince showed no interest whatsoever in the plum blossoms, and he had never walked among them for years.

Everybody thought that he didn’t particularly like the plum blossoms and had simply gotten them planted there like any other part of the residence’s gardens.

Little did anybody expect that he would fly into such a rage after some of them went missing, to the point that he would even punish the butler.

“Your Highness, what are you doing? I merely asked for a couple of plum blossoms. Why the fury? If you don’t want to give them to me, I can return them.” Gu Bailu went forward and wrested the stick away from the person carrying out the punishment.

Qian’er followed and sheltered the butler behind her small body.

Sitting on the rail of the passageway, Lu Fenying glanced at them coldly. “Get lost!”

“Your Highness, the plum blossoms have been returned. If you’re angry, come at me. I asked for them. These people are innocent.” Gu Bailu stood there, undaunted.

Her conscience wouldn’t allow so many people to die because of some plum blossoms.

She was here to get the Sky Splitting Mirror, and didn’t want to get so many people killed.

“I’ll say it again. Get lost!” Lu Fenying’s eyes were vicious and his pretty features were twisted in a frightful way.

Gu Bailu’s heart pounded. It didn’t seem like Lu Fenying in this state was open to discussion.

She regretted asking for the plum blossoms. She had only wanted to make Qian’er happy since she had been the ones to plant them.

But nobody could be happy now that so many people were going to be killed.

Lu Fenying was nowhere as lovable as Feng Qingtian.

Should she get out of the way or not?

For the first time, Gu Bailu felt conflicted.

Lu Fenying, however, didn’t have the time or patience for her, and simply launched an earth-shattering attack at her with his palm...

Before Gu Bailu could dodge, someone pushed her out of the way. “Master, move.”

Gu Bailu stumbled and turned around to see that the attack had already reached Qian’er’s face. Qian’er’s eyes were closed as she stood pale and trembling in front of the butler.

Unexpectedly, the attack stopped, and Lu Fenying roared, “Are you done living?”

Qian’er fell to the ground with sweat all over her forehead. Even her back was drenched.
