Chapter 220: The General is Sick, He Just Needs a Good Beating (16)

Translator: asassin

Qi Ying’s expression darkens.

It never occurs to her that Ah Zhao won’t show her any respect in front of General Huo.

She looks at Ah Zhao a bit helplessly then at Huo Jun. “Brother-in-law…”

She hopes for some reaction from him.

Huo Jun doesn’t let her down.

Expressionless he has been, he finally looks up and turns his eyes on Qi Ying for the first time so far.

Qi Ying instinctively straightens up and wants to her best self to him.

However, what Huo Jun says is a complete slap on her face.

“My Lady doesn’t like your tea. What are you still here for?”

Qi Ying’s eyes widen. She looks at Huo Jun, can’t believe what she just heard.

By now, Lady Qi finally returns to her senses. She hurriedly walks up, grabs the teacup from her daughter and drags her away.

“Pa!”

When she arrives at the back chamber, Lady Qi can’t keep her smile any longer and slaps Qi Ying hard across the face.

“Why did I give birth to you? You are shameless!”

Qi Ying takes the slap. With her head lowered, she sneers: “Huh, I didn’t see you drag me away when General Huo didn’t refuse me. Mother, you were hopeful, weren’t you?”

Looking up, half of her fair cheek is red. “Someone who isn’t close to you, someone who even holds grudges against you as the general’s wife compared to your own daughter, mother, which do you prefer?”

Lady Qi is so angry that her lips are quivering. “You didn’t want it! Qi Ying, you were on your knees, threatened to kill yourself before you marry him. I… I acted against my conscience and set your big sister up. It’s her destiny that she is safe and sound now. You’ve got what you want. Don’t think about anything else.”

Lady Qi is a typical philistine married woman. She is calculating and selfish, besides, she hasn’t been kind to the kids left behind by her husband’s former wife.

However, given all the above, she doesn’t dare to do harm to others.

The most outrageous thing she has done in her life was letting Qi Zhao marry instead of her own daughter.

When she knew Qi Zhao would come back for a visit safe and sound, she felt relieved that nothing bad happened to Qi Zhao.

Then there was fear that General Huo would settle accounts after the wedding and that Qi Zhao nursed a hatred against her.

“But I regret it now.” Qi Ying says in an expression like a cry but also a laugh.

“Haven’t you seen, mother? Father has to act to her expression. Have you ever seen him like that?”

She hasn’t dropped her hope yet. “I thought General Huo was too fearsome that he was a jinx to his wife. But I never thought how impressive a general’s wife could be.”

Her eyes are full of longing. “Look how impressive big sister is. Walking out of such a big car and followed by a group of guards, that… ought to have been me!”

Lady Qi can’t bear her any longer.

“Someone, come here!” She calls two maids.

“The miss doesn’t feel very well. Take her to her room for a rest and don’t let her out without my permission.”

Watching Qi Ying taken away, the tears she has been holding back finally drop.

She takes out a handkerchief and wipes her tears. Flashing a smile, she heads for the main hall.

In the main hall.

“Sister!” A loud and clear voice suddenly goes up.

Before Ah Zhao knows what is happening, she sees a figure charging at her like a bullet which is then stopped by Huo Jun.
