Chapter 3016: Chapter 3017: Exposed

Bai Ruozhu was stunned. What on earth is going on in this world? Someone’s head was chopped off, dead beyond dead, yet they can be resurrected?

Princess Zhu gracefully bowed to the man, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"I have brought back your brother for you. Go have a chat with him," the man said generously.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Princess Zhu bowed, then turned and walked toward the little steamed bun.

"Sis... Sis... You’re alright, that’s great!" The little steamed bun’s tears burst forth, as he threw himself into Princess Zhu’s arms.

At that moment, a flash of disgust crossed Princess Zhu’s face, so quickly that Bai Ruozhu almost thought it was her illusion, but it was unmistakable; her eyesight was sharp, her observational skills were keen.

This woman is not Princess Zhu; otherwise, why would she loathe her own brother? If she really loathed him, why would she die for him?

"Don’t be afraid, little brother. Everything is fine now. Sister will take care of you," she said, reaching out to touch the little steamed bun’s head.

The little steamed bun cried, his body trembling, "But Father and Mother died so tragically and were hung on the City Gate."

"That’s why we need to live well," the woman said softly.

Suddenly, the little steamed bun pushed her away, glaring at her, "You’re not my sister! My sister doesn’t talk like this!"

"I’m sad too, but what can I say? I promised them to take good care of you. I just want you to live well," the woman said, feigning sincerity.

"Bullsh*t! My sister never calls me brother; she calls me Xiaoxiao, and she’d never speak so falsely like you do! Who are you?" the little steamed bun shouted angrily.

The woman’s expression changed, it seemed she could no longer keep up the façade.

From the upper seat, the man let out a displeased grunt, scaring the woman into kneeling on the ground.

"Your Majesty, it’s the servant’s incompetence, begging for Your Majesty’s forgiveness," she pleaded hastily.

"Can’t even handle such a small matter, what use are you? You should be thankful for that face, otherwise, you’d be dead already," the man said sternly.

The woman trembled in fear, "Yes, the servant deserves to die."

The little steamed bun shouted in fury, "You changed my sister’s face to hers? How shameless can you be! She doesn’t deserve my sister’s face!"

The man laughed, his laughter was extremely seductive, truly a top-tier handsome man.

"She is indeed Princess Zhu. The people of Chiyu Country will all soon know their Princess Zhu has submitted to me, and is now my beloved concubine. Of course, I will treat Chiyu Country generously; I will not kill Princess Zhu and will spare you, Prince Xiaoxiao’s life."

"Dream on! You killed my sister and stole her face; my sister will not be humiliated by you!" The little steamed bun cried bitterly, furiously clawing at the woman’s face. Although it was his sister’s face, he now wanted to destroy it, help his sister destroy it; nobody should steal his sister’s things!

The woman waved her hand and pushed him back, causing the little steamed bun to fall heavily to the ground.

His eyes were blood-red, filled with hatred and suffering, but alas, he was too weak.

Looking at this child, as small as Dengdeng, Bai Ruozhu felt a pang in her heart. Such a young child having to endure all this, truly pitiful. Yet, the man on the throne wished to raise him only to ruin him.

Shameless, wicked, deserves to die!

The deep-seated hatred gathered around the little steamed bun, slowly enveloping him in a light gray mist, his dark eyes turned crimson...
