My face immediately darkened as I saw Yang Ziru looking like an aggrieved wife, squeezing out tears and wiping them with a handkerchief, “Brother Shang, she was so rude, she actually tore up the imperial edict of our engagement with Mo Ran…”
I couldn’t hold back my anger and slammed the table, standing up, “Damn! I didn’t tear you up, and that’s already good enough! You uncultured wild woman, stay away from my Shang! Politely call him ‘Your Majesty’! Otherwise, I’ll chop you into eighteen pieces!” My anger peaked, and even Yang Ziru, who never listened to anyone, obediently sat down farther from Shang.
I told Shang the whole story in detail. After hearing the events, Shang rubbed his forehead with a headache, looking like he was about to cry, “How could you cause so much trouble?”
“It’s her!”
“It’s her!” We both pointed at each other simultaneously.
“Why are you mimicking me?”
“Why are you mimicking me?” We spoke in unison again, and the smoke of war spread throughout the study. Shang’s eyebrows twitched, showing a painful expression: “Can’t you two be quiet? My head is about to explode…”
Looking at Shang’s painful expression, I could tell he was just short of banging his head against the wall.
A lightbulb went off in my head: “Ah! Shang, if you have a headache, you can try ‘Zheng Tian Wan’! It’s very effective!” A crow flew over Shang’s head with a “Caw caw~”, oh, it seemed I said something wrong.
Shang painfully held his head and pondered, “The previous emperor’s decree cannot be violated… but we also can’t sacrifice Mo Ran’s happiness…” Yang Ziru slapped Shang’s shoulder: “Brother Shang, don’t worry. Leave Mo Ran to me, he will definitely be happy. This way, we won’t violate the previous emperor’s decree.”
I chimed in, “Shang, you don’t know, this girl is a sadist. Mo Ran has almost been beaten to death by her giant flyswatter several times. Mo Ran doesn’t even like her; marrying her would be the beginning of hell on earth!”
