CHAPTER 05 - She's still a woman

"Enough."

She said those words and all shut off, the time they felt her murder intent, they sweated nervously.

"Sorry to interrupt the Aunts but just what shit are you spouting all about?" she spoke calmly.

But annoyance and authority was heard on Chao Lei's words.

Just like how she handles meeting at the First Branch Court and like how she casually use curses to scold those imprudent officers at her branch.

Chao Lei hated the most was disregarding her presence and existence, ever since she was born, she was certainly like this.

All bowed and feared her, her presence was of a divine. Even though she didn't mind these kind of things but still, she hates it when someone disregard her.

"The visit of the aunts was to give blessing for the upcoming wedding, aren't they?"

The aunt sealed off their lips nervously, they felt somewhat scared to reply that might offend her.

He Jian shot a wide eye to Chao Lei. The Lady miss... she was somewhat different now!

"Aunts and cousin. I, Chao Lei was betrothed to Qiang Ping and soon will be his official wife." that all shut them more off especially Qiang Ping, his emotions was complex hearing those coming from her.

"The wedding will be held soon, and everything was settled. The invitation is ready, the venue is final and the couple is prepared..."

but actually, Chao Lei was just spouting what comes on her mind "...and you three came here to disregard the bride up frontal and offer a slut to replace me?!"

She slammed the table that made them all startled and abruptly whispered some spareful chants. Fu Jing trembled extremely.

While He Jian can't take off her eyes to Chao Lei. She admired her more and more and really thought that, she can! She can!

"Aunts were actually displeasing. So I decided to withdraw our invitation from you and declare that you can never come and visit here again. All ties are cut off because from the very start, you never brought anything good in this place." straight forwardly she spoke with authority and turned to Qiang Ping.

Qiang Ping was caught off guard but Chao Lei calmly stared at her "Your humble person requests for Masters approval"

Qiang Ping smiled and thought how brave is this young lad he carried off from the west forest and said, "For Aunts had gravely humiliated and angered my fiancée. I would not object to what she plea."

"But---!"

"No buts now out." Chao Lei declared in an indifferent manner.

Hately, the three was thrown out. But they can never offend that lady who breathed a murderous aura. They felt like they were gripped right on the neck at that moment!

Inside the Manor. The three of them was left.

There was a dead silent at first when suddenly, Qiang Ping moved, he dragged his whole body to move backward, he struggled but ended up kowtowing to Chao Lei.

"Big brother!" He Jian stood up to stop his brother but he ignored her.

"Everything here was at my fault. I barely knew that my relatives were viscous and would mannered incorrectly at this dinner and I myself haven't even stopped them. I am hoping for Miss's consideration." he spoke calmly.

Chao Lei made a fixed expression "It has never been your fault to have a scoundrel relatives. And Master should not bow to anyone."

Qiang Ping slowly rose and immediately saw the calm beauty intensely staring at her.

"This humble person is named Chao Lei." this time Chao Lei kowtowed to him.

He was the Master of this Manor after all and ever since her first day, she never offered a greeting to him.

Qiang Ping warmly smiled and make her rose "I am Qiang Ping."

The two couple that would soon be married has finally met.

He Jian was crying at the side. She feared that her plans will be crushed in a fiery way but unexpected thing really do happen!

They ate lively and the atmosphere wasn't awkward. Even though Chao Lei was not very much talkative, today should be listed on the history where she volunteered herself to do the lead on talking and gave off her unusual smile and laugh that made the sibling pleased. She was obviously enjoying herself and so were they.

Qiang Ping was just average and was not confident at himself. Even though he was a genius doctor at his village but he still didn't managed to heal himself from being crippled.

He was getting old and by this time he only had his younger sister. His younger sister that has the only thought of protecting him from harm and finding someone that will truly care for him.

And He Jian was confident at Chao Lei.

He sipped his tea while sneakingly took glimpse at Chao Lei who was now munching a dumpling.

Good gracious. If this maiden would be his wife... For once, he felt heaven favored him.

"Big brother?"

He choked with his tea, his sister appeared suddenly while he was thinking about marriage!

Chao Lei observed Qiang Ping at the corner of her eyes.

Her intuition was right. The flow of qi at his body was disturbed, and that was because of his crippled legs. Even though Qiang Ping had a well built upper body, it was still inconvenient to have unstable legs.

But still something was definitely off.

She doesn't know how grave the current situation of his leg had, but she knew a vary of medical techniques in the flow of qi at a body. And this village was somewhat ignorant at the present system outside so if she just can touch one of his leg and perform the techniques, she can be a help atleast.

If she can just touch his leg...

Her eyes landed on something.

She immediately choked in a quiet manner.

Did she just felt a woman's yearn?
