Black Bellied Belle: Demon Lord, Bite The Bait Please Chapter 17.1: The Mystery Behind Their Birth

The woman had obviously not expected things to take such a turn and she turned woodenly to look at Yan Su’s face. As expected, she saw an unfriendly expression, his face dark.

She immediately fell from her chair in fright. “Your Highness, your lady did not mean it. I beg for Your Highness’ forgiveness.”

On her knees, she scampered to go over to Yan Su’s side, pushing her ample bosom against his thigh, looking highly seductive.

But Yan Su had lost all his mood as he pushed her away from him. “To think that this Duke had been with such a foolish woman for so many years. How nauseating!”

“Your Highness…..” The woman’s face turned pale, realizing that she had committed a grave wrong. Her body trembling as she sobbed in plea, she heard Yan Su say impatiently: “Bring her away from here. This Duke does not want to see her at this moment.”

It was as if a bolt had struck down from clear skies, and she whom had been exceptionally favoured was suddenly condemned into Hell just because of a statement she made.

With Yan Su saying that he did not want to see her anymore, then she would have no chance of rising up again.

“Don’t do this….. Your Highness….. Your lady has realized her mistake and I beg for Your Highness to give me another chance….. Your Highness….. Your Highness…..”

The woman was forcefully dragged out by the guards outside the doors.

It fell ominously silent around the table and no one dared to speak another word.

Yan Ning Luo’s eyes were darkened in incomprehension. What was her elder brother thinking? Is he going turn his elbows outwards to go help those two people? Doesn’t he know how much Mother hates that woman’s children? How could he…..

Yan Su rubbed his temples to soothe his headache. “Little Cheng, why have you suddenly come to concern yourself with the manor’s internal affairs? And, who were you talking about earlier…..”

“They live in the Tranquil Abode. The two children birthed by Lady Qing.” Yan Xi Cheng replied softly. “I had gone to see them before and saw that they were living in abysmal conditions. Even the servants of a slightly higher position were living better than them and I do not wish for such a thing to spread outside the Eternal Peace Duke’s Manor, for people to say that we illtreat the children of deceased concubines.”

Yan Su’s expression turned slightly startled.

Lady Qing…..

The foolish woman one who insisted on protecting her two children even at the cost of her own life?

That’s right. It should have been ten years since her death. It has been so many years that he was almost about to forget, that such a person had once existed.

Maybe, he did not forget, but just that he did not want to remember that sorrowful past.

“You are a good man, but I am already someone’s wife. I am currently on the run and I do not want to drag you into it.”

“I do not care, and I am not afraid of being implicated. I only want to protect you!”

“Yan Su, I am already with child.” The cold and peerless beauty’s expression was so unbelievably gentle at that moment, so beautiful and a look he had never seen before.

Even if it was only to protect just that short ephemeral smile, he was most willing to.

“Then, let me the child’s father, and allow me to protect both of you!”

Despite the fact that he already had a wife and children, but for some unknown reason, he just could not seem to control his heart but to be attracted to her.

Like a moth to a burning flame, even if he had to give up his own life, it would be sweet as syrup to him.

That person, had exactly that kind of charm to make people fall head over heels!

But he, had come to feel an inexplicable kind of jealousy towards the man, the one who had been able to possess her, a man whom she had been willing to carry his child for.

And he himself had now gone back on his word?

Having promised to protect her children, but he had never cared about them before, to the extent that he never knew what they looked like at all.

It was his jealousy that had blinded both his eyes, that made his heart turn cold and hard as steel!

Yan Su was immediately feeling rather exhausted and he stood up from his seat. With saying a single word, he then walked slowly out.

The remaining people all fell deep in thought, everyone making their own guesses in their minds.
