Chapter 56 - 56. The Scary Hong er I

Third person POV

Dinner*

Bai Huiqing was puzzled by Weisheng's weird behavior. He had been bumping onto things and his food even dropped out from his mouth. Even Xu Tingfeng was suspicious of Weisheng's clumsiness. Weisheng was a dignified and noble person, for him to act like this mean something very bad happened.

Hong er had been concerned with Weisheng that she couldn't hold back her worries anymore. She took her handkerchief and dampened it. She grabbed his chopstick from his hand and put it down on the table, she wiped his messy mouth and his clothes that were stained when he dropped his food.

After she wiped it off, she passed the handkerchief to Huayun. She gently put her hand on Weisheng's big hand, Weisheng looked at her. Her face filled with worries, there was no smile on her face like the usual. He felt guilty for making Hong er worried about him, he put his hand on top her hand and smiled gently at her.

Hong er knew that Weisheng wanted to reassure her that he was fine. Her worries flew away, she smiled brightly at him. She pulled her hand from Weisheng's hand, Weisheng was a little bit disappointed but it disappeared in a second.

Hong er took an empty bowl an poured chicken soup in it, she put 2 chicken legs into the bowl. Weisheng stretched out his hand to take the bowl from Hong er but Hong er didn't see his stretched out hand. She took his spoon and scooped the soup, she placed it in front of his mouth. Weisheng happily ate what Hong er fed him, even though it was a bone, he would swallow it down for Hong er.

Xu Yongliang: " Hong Jiejie, why are you being so unfair?~"

Hong er: " ?"

Xu Yongrui: " Hong Jiejie feeds him spoon by spoon but you didn't feed us at all."

The three little Xu brothers were staring at Hong er with puppy eyes and pout on their face. Hong er chuckled and put down Weisheng's bowl.

Hong er: " Hahaha, I thought that all of you had grow up. Liang er and Rui er had reached my shoulder, even Yu er had reached my chest when we were standing."

Xu Zhaoyu: " But he is way older than us."

Hong er: " Hhmm, makes sense. Then do you want Jiejie to feed you?"

Xu Zhaoyu: " No need, we are mature. We don't want to disrupt Hong Jiejie's dinner by feeding us."

Hong er: " Wasei~~ So mature."

Weisheng: ' Hong er likes a guy who can eat their food by themselves?!'

Weisheng picked up his bowl and ate the soup in a gulp. He ate the chicken with a perfect table manner, he proudly showed the empty bowl to Hong er. Hong er glanced at the empty bowl and nodded her head, she smiled brightly and patted Weisheng's head.

Hong er: " Good good~~"

Xu Yongliang: " Hong Jiejie, I finished mine too."

Xu Yongrui: " Me too."

Xu Zhaoyu: " Look!"

Hong er: " Waahh~ What a good boy."

Hong er patted their head while Weisheng glared at them from behind. He heard a chuckle and a bad feeling, Weisheng turned his head towards the source of the annoying chuckle. And he saw Xu Tingfeng with a big smirk on his face. Weisheng immediately got annoyed by that smirk, he glared at Xu Tingfeng. But Xu Tingfeng's smirk got bigger and he pointed at the three little Xu brothers.

Xu Tingfeng: " They are my little backings, pfft, didn't I say just wait? I won't let you off that easily. Ahahahaha!"

Weisheng: " You old geezer."

Weisheng's hands were trembling from anger, when he thought that he can finally smoothly court Hong er to be his wife, there were obstacles from Xu Tingfeng. Hong er noticed Weisheng's trembling hand, she held his hand and patted his back.

Hong er: " Are you okay?"

Weisheng's anger flew away, he held Hong er's hand and brought it to his lips. He kissed her hand and smiled gently at Hong er.

Weisheng: " Hong er, I lov-"

*BAAM

Xu Zhiqiang: " Hong er!"

Hong er: " Qiang ge?! How can you be here?"

Xu Zhiqiang saw Weisheng was holding Hong er's hand, he immediately ran to their side and slapped Weisheng's hand away. Xu Zhiqiang wiped Hong er's hand with his handkerchief, after a while he nodded his head in satisfaction. Xu Zhiqiang glared at Weisheng who was glaring at him too.

Xu Zhiqiang who was on duty when he received a message from the three little Xu brothers. The letter said that a giant man was hugging and kissing Hong er as he likes. Xu Zhiqiang immediately reported this big news to Xu Yingjie and Xu Yongzheng. All of them had known about Weisheng since they lived beside Xu residence and enlisted to Xu military because Xu Tingfeng had sent them a message about that before.

At first they were sceptical about Weisheng's daring action because in Da Qi there were unstable politics between the Crown Prince and his uncle who wants to take the throne. They thought this was one of Weisheng's plan, but they didn't know that he came just to flirt with Hong er.

Xu Zhiqiang: " Don't touch Hong er with your filthy hand."

Song Tao at the side was internally crying.

Song Tao: ' He is the emperor of Da Qi! Why does all of you like to offend every country's emperor?! Is Da Chu's emperor not enough?!'

Weisheng: " Hah?"

Weisheng glared at Xu Zhiqiang with murderous intent. He snatched Hong er's hand from Xu Zhiqiang's hand and hid her behind him.

Xu Zhiqiang: " You wanna die?"

Weisheng: " I'll kill you."

Bai Huiqing tiredly sighed at the situation, she only wanted a peaceful dinner but Xu Tingfeng decided to destroy her dream by laughing out loud.

Xu Tingfeng: " AHAHAHAHA, see that?! Sucks to be you."

Weisheng: " Shut up old man."

Xu Tingfeng: " Ya kiddo got no manner."

Bai Huiqing: " Shut your mouth or you are going to sleep outside forever."

Xu Tingfeng: " …"

Xu Zhiqiang: " So you wanna fight?"

Weisheng: " You are gonna lose though."

Hong er: " Please don't fig-"

Xu Zhiqiang: " Then don't come crying when you lose."

Hong er: " Qiang g-"

Weisheng: " It is gonna be you who will be crying."

Hong er: " Sheng ge pl-"

Xu Zhiqiang summoned his swallow ( search in " swallow weapon" on internet for the image) with lightning crackle around the swallow. Weisheng summoned his black sword with a dark aura enveloping his sword. Everyone in the room stepped aside to avoid getting injured by the fight.

Both of them disappeared into the air and appeared outside of the hall. Then everyone went to the door to watch the fight. They clashed their weapon in a lightning speed. A cut suddenly appeared on Xu Zhiqiang's right cheek, Xu Zhiqiang frowned and increased his speed. He slashed his sword towards Weisheng's arm and blood poured out from his arm. More and more cuts appeared on their legs, arms, abdomens, and face.

Hong er: " No! Please stop!"

Suddenly a white sword from out of nowhere flew towards their direction, Xu Zhiqiang and Weisheng took a step back. The white sword penetrated the ground, causing the wind to explode and the ground shook. Xu Zhiqiang and Weisheng were slammed to the wall because of the explosion.

They glared at the person who threw the sword, they saw Hong er stood with dignity in front. They shivered when they looked at her face, her face was as black as ink, her eyes glowed with bright golden light. She looked down at them with her cold eyes, there was no smile on her face. Her cold voice was deeper than usual, they can even feel the coldness spread through their body.

Hong er: " I told you to stop."
