The Noble Woman's Guide On How to Tease One's Husband

Chapter 57- Enter the palace

Chu Jinglan immediately left the Imperial Palace after the royal court meeting and as soon as his foot stepped into the King mansion, a solemn- faced Yugyeom greeted him.

"Wangye, it's not good. Something happened in Yanzhou!"

Jungkook's complexion changed slightly, he grabbed his (Yugyeom) robe and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"

"Junwang was attacked by a group of unidentified men in black when he returned to the regional capital city from Liuyue City. He unfortunately was seriously injured and has yet to regain consciousness. Presently, he is being treated in a place of question."

Releasing his hands abruptly, Jungkook staggered two steps back seemingly a little unstable. Right at this moment, Lisa came over from the corridor. Seeing this situation, the pupils of her phoenix eyes constricted as she asked anxiously, "What happened?"

Yugyeom recounted the matter in detail again. Her frowning brows knitted more tightly as she listened then looked over at Jungkook. She merely saw gloominess in his dark eyes as if heavily weighed down by dark clouds while something sharp that impelled everyone present was about to break out. Even Yugyeom was slightly startled yet she was totally unafraid and even instructed them with extreme calmness.

"Ci Yuan, take my seal to mobilize the people of Ye family in Yanzhou. Tell them to immediately send the best physicians and medicines over. Then assign a group of guards from Tianqi House and must ensure the safety of Junwang Rong!"

Ci Yuan was about to receive the order and leave when he heard Jungkook speak out of a sudden, "No need."

"Why?" Raising her head, Lisa asked questionably.

Jungkook closed his eyes and when he opened them again, they were sober and calm with visible faint traces of suppressed anger within them.

"Since Zhenghe's men can still pass the message to Buriram, this proves that he is safe now. After sparing no effort, those assassins will not have another chance since they failed to kill him in a single blow." Saying that, he then paused, turned his head and instructed Yugyeom, "Take a trip to the city north and tell that person to presently cease contact again."

City north? Who is he talking about?

With a mind full of doubts, Lisa, however, was not in a rush to ask any questions. She merely waited until the group of people rushed away before gently gripping Jungkook's hand and raised her head to look at him. The drifting gleam reflected in her eyes was full of unspeakable anxiety.

Heat emitted steadily from those small boneless soft hands that eventually warmed Jungkook's cold numb body up. Coming back to his senses, his fingers moved slightly before he pulled her into his arms while the chin resting on the crown of her head seemed heavier than ever.

Lisa had never seen such a dejected Jungkook that her heart merely felt a trace of dull tearing pain which gradually spread to her limbs. She just stood perfectly upright and reached her hands out to stroke Jungkook's back, rendering him her strongest support while warmly stated, "Don't worry, Zhenghe will be fine."

Jungkook did not speak but his embrace slowly became tighter.

Yanzhou is a thousand miles away from Buriram and has long been impregnable under the control of Chu Zhenghe, which is not easy for Chu Sehun to extend his hand over. But despite the odds, he did so and even told Jungkook that although he can't touch him (Jungkook) under the court and public opinion, he can target and attack the people around him.

This is a warning and also the price he has to pay for returning to the royal court.

Thinking of this, Jungkook tightened the embrace of the delicate body in his arms even more. Whatever happens, he cannot expose Lisa and Ye family to danger.
