Don’t worry, i’ll divorce you - Chapter 38 At a Court Place Law Mansion
Arrives at the Law Mansion, the place makes TanTan remembering of one favorite drama that watched her Mom every weekend, its about a justice judge who solved all cases in the law office. Everyone who has trouble can plea by hitting a giant drum which be put at the front of the gate.
'Hm…so the drum is a real thing? I always thought its just an added accessory…'
But its not something TanTan need to think about right now. As they enter the front yard, it's surprising that the officer separates TanTan from others.
"Wait…where do you take them to?" asks TanTan curiously.
One officer explains to her,
"They will be in jail for a while until Prince Li ready to start the investigation…"
"How about me? Shouldn't I have to go with them too?"
The officer laughs nervously to TanTan,
"You are kidding Young Madam…who would dare to put you in jail..? No, Sir ManQi instructed me to assist you to a guest room. You can wait and rest at there….please…this way!" Then the officer politely assists her to a one simple room inside part of the house.
"XiaoJieee" TanTan is surprised to see XiaoRue coming out from the room, welcomes her with worry….she feels relieved that XiaoRue is fine but TanTan also feels guilty for leaving her behind at the restaurant…
"I am glad you are okay, XiaoRue!"
"XiaoRue too, XiaoJie…XiaoRue glads that XiaoJie is fine now…" XiaoRue checks TanTan's condition. She notices the red marks on TanTan's neck. She becomes worry,
"XiaoJie….did that bad guys hurt you….those red marks?"
When TanTan realizes about the red marks XiaoRue mentions about, her
immediately becomes red as tomato and she covers her neck right away with her hand.
"Its..its..nothing..!" She immediately enters the room, be followed by XiaoRue who still curious about the marks.
In other room, Prince LiZhouWei is sitting on the chair, examined by a physician. The result of examination is not too serious,
The physician tells that Prince Li just got drugged by a strong aphrodisiac which fortunately has been neutralized sooner. Now he just need to take a rest for a while, and so his lower part which being hurt by TanTan.
After the physician leaves the room; ManQi, as a man, he feels sympathize to what Prince Li had been through, but he still confused about how Prince Li got hurt in that area? Was it Lady FengHuang? But how could a Lady FengHuang who crazy about him did such a thing? Or maybe HuaMuTan who did it? But why? Was it because she so jealous and angry to Prince Li so she gave such a punishment…its..its too cruel!!' He can't hold his curiosity, so he dares to ask,
"Master…what is actually happened in the room?"
But Prince Li keeps silent. There are two reasons why he keeps silent. First, he is too shameful answering that question. How can he say that he just almost harassing HuaMuTan and ended with kicked by her?!?
Second, he is still shocked to himself coz according to the Physician's information, the drug Lady FengHuang used is a type of aphrodisiac who can give a hallucination, the person who gets drugged will hallucinating his lover or the most person who he desires most. Prince Li always believe that he loves ShuangAi, he admires her so long….but… why on earth did he hallucinate that woman, HuaMuTan?!!
'No…no…no…no…no…no…no…no….NO!…It can't be right!!'
His mind rejects the possibility that he has been attracted to her all these time.
'You are sick, LiZhouWei! Remember she is the woman who had destroy your life!! A selfish woman who just want to control you all these months! No way you can have a feeling to her!!"
"Master…? MASTER!" Didn't get any respond makes ManQi worries that the drug's effect still remains so ManQi feels need to call him loudly. Its awaken Prince Li from his thought,
"Ah…ehm…what did you say?"
"We already put them in jail for the further investigation. Do you want to start it now?"
"How 'bout HuaMuTan?"
"She is resting in the guest room, like your order."
From beginning Prince Li didn't really mean to put TanTan in jail, he just scared her a little bit.
"And…is Lady FengHuang conscious already?"
"Yes, she wakes up…. badly."
What ManQi means that when Lady FengHuang is conscious from the hitting, she becomes hysteric right away,
"Aaaakhh, why am I here???…Let me go…Prince Li…Guardss…let me go…!!!
Its worrying the beard a lot, as they are neighbours. The jail contains two big rooms, one room is across to another.
"Lady FengHuang, calm down…It will be fine….!!"
"Don't tell me to be fine…Its ridiculous that I, Lady FengHuang can be in this terrible place…who was actually ruined my plan!!!" She recited what happened and then she notices another figure who be in the same room, a woman who turns back from her, likes trying to hide from her. But the back is so familiar for Lady FengHuang to recognize her right away.
"QINGQING!!! Why on earth you can be here??!"
QingQing turns and forces to smile to her only blooded sister in this world.
"Hi, Feng Jie…"
LadyFengHuang approaches her, angrily looks to her,
"Don't 'hi' to me…what did you do this time??!"
"Well…please calm, Feng Jie…let me explain our condition right now…."
So QingQing explains the situation, including who fainted Lady FengHuang and how did they end in the jail…
As the respond of QingQing's story, Lady FengHuang can't hold her scream any longer,
"Aaaaagghh, that wicked woman again!!! HuaMuTan!!! She always trying to separate me from my Prince…!" She glances fiercely to QingQing, "And you…its all your fault!!! Why did you take her to the house of gamble, Haaah?!"
"I am sorry, Feng Jie…but how do I know that she pretended as a man to fool me??!! I just repaying my debt…You the one who always taught me not to have debts with anyone right?"
"I did but that woman is the exception!!!"
"Come on, don't be mad okay, Feng Jie… beside didn't you too overboard a little bit, FengJie…using drug on the Prince? Didn't you aware with the consequence like…the condition now??!!"
"My plan supposes to work if there is no interfere of that wicked woman!!" Lady FengHuang is hard to admit her wrong. Her plan to make Prince takes responsibility of her has ruined and deep in her heart, she is actually scared coz she knows that Prince Li won't forgive her easily for what she did…
The beard man who has listened them from beginning just observes them in confusion,
"Hey, I don't understand, why do you hate that girl? She seems nice to me…"
But those women choose to ignore him completely.
Back to TanTan's room, XiaoRue still wondering what happened so TanTan finally tells her but not in detail, she stops at when she managed to save Prince Li from that Lady FengHuang.
TanTan also wonders and asks XiaoRue back about Lady FengHuang,
"XiaoRue doesn't know too much about her, XiaoJie…but after listening XiaoJie's story. XiaoRue remembers that in the past XiaoJie ever mentions that name…" XiaoRue tried to collect her old memories, "Aha, right! In the Crown Prince's coronation party; Lady FengHuang ever became one of the main dancers and…"
"And what happened next?" TanTan asks although she can guess the end of XiaoRue's story isn't end well.
"Emm, because she was too close with Prince Li ,XiaoJie you purposely ruined her dress with wine and humiliated her till she runs from the room right away at that time." XiaoRue ends her words in small voice, wondering the respond of TanTan after heard about it.
'O great…another HuaMuTan's love rival?
TanTan sighed, 'And this time I might cause her a problem more than just a ruined dress'
"XiaoJie, now what will happen?"
"I also want to know…" As a law student, TanTan quite interests with the law procedure they will have in this ancient time.
An officer comes to TanTan's room to announce the same news, that Prince Li want everyone to gather in the court place right now.
