3 Chapter 3 Dean of the Eunuchs_1

Lu Ming's shout gave Jing Yiren a fright, causing her small frame to tremble.

She was most afraid of her imperial uncle's rage. Whenever he got angry, she could not avoid getting her small palms smacked and being starved. If unlucky, she might be shut in her room without stepping out for days.

Her eyes dropped down, filled with wronged emotions, shaking with restraint. She bit her lower lip, trying to force herself not to let the tears fall, her hands clutching her chest blanket tightly.

"Uncle! Can't I correct my mistake, don't stay angry at Yiren..."

"Jing Yiren!" Lu Ming growled in a low tone, interrupting her disgusting and contrived sweetness.

He grabbed Jing Yiren off the sickbed in one go, and started dragging her towards the door.

Jing Yiren's strength was nowhere near 'imperial uncle's'! She was pulled so hard it hurt her wrists, dragging her out of the ward.

"Unc ... Uncle ..."

As Jing Yiren's wronged expression uttered the word 'uncle', Lu Ming's face turned even darker. The strength of his grip increased, causing her to gasp in pain.

Once a proud princess, this kind of treatment now made Jing Yiren's tears spring out.

"Uncle... Uncle... Can't Yiren amend her mistake..."

Lu Ming was moving fast as he dragged her. Jing Yiren couldn't keep up with his pace and nearly tripped several times.

It was only when they bumped into an old man in mourning dress walking towards them that Lu Ming suddenly stopped and flung Jing Yiren to the ground.

Following Lu Ming, Li Tong came up with a disdainful look at Jing Yiren lying on the ground.

This woman had a thick skin, bawling, creating chaos and even attempting suicide to escape divorce. Nothing she hadn't done, she even slashed her wrists.

Is she pretending to be crazy and stupid now?

No matter how beautiful Jing Yiren was, Lu Ming would not want a wife who cuckolded him, who was debauched and malicious.

This marriage could not continue; divorce was inevitable.

Seeing Lu Ming truly angry, Li Tong, who was behind him, came up to advise in a low voice.

"President Lu! Since the Dean is here! Let the Dean give Miss Jing a full body check, to see if she is really crazy or pretending. Let her admit it and shut up, see what else she can say!"

The dean, standing face-to-face with Lu Ming, quickly helped Jing Yiren from the ground: "Miss Jing, what happened?"

Jing Yiren looked at the kindly and affable old man in front of her, feeling he was somewhat like a eunuch.

Lowering her head, she said in a wronged tone, "Yiren doesn't know how she upset her uncle? Your servant begs eunuch to say a few good words in front of uncle so he isn't angry with Yiren anymore."

"…" Eunuch?

"Pff! Cough, cough!" The dean coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment.

The 55-year-old dean nearly sprayed his saliva, he wouldn't dare to have such a daughter-in-law!

Then he turned to look at Lu Ming: "President Lu, I will take Miss Jing for an examination."

"…" Lu Ming frowned distastefully, sweeping a glance at Jing Yiren, and nodded his firm chin.

When Jing Yiren saw the disgust and hatred in Lu Ming's eyes, she felt as if she had been hit hard, her heart sank sharply.

She had narrowly escaped death, but if she was disliked by her imperial uncle, wouldn't he want to get rid of her?

"Miss Jing, please come with me!" The dean led the way in front.

Jing Yiren followed the 'eunuch's' steps, lowering her head and not daring to look at her uncle. She quietly walked past him.

When Jing Yiren passed by Lu Ming, his originally cold pupils fluttered slightly. He slowly lowered his eyes, and a touch of desolation passed under his gaze.

He just stood there motionlessly.
