Chapter 560: Protecting the Inner Self Yet Unreasonable

Lingxiao's dark eyes twinkled with a hint of amusement. The little girl's reaction was much calmer than his. He thought she would jump up and run away immediately upon discovering they were sleeping...Fu Lingxiao sat in the car, his posture relaxed.

Charles clearly felt it, a powerful aura radiating from him, enveloping him with the terrifying threat that spread inch by inch!

A man who even the entire royal family of Country Y feared. His strength is self-evident.

These years fighting Duke Leo was too intense, Charles's energy was greatly depleted. Charles knew the difference in strength, so he wouldn't be foolish enough to go head-to-head.

He let out a slow smile and said, "Mr. Fu knows that I've always valued you as a business partner. Whatever you need, just say the word, and I will gladly offer it with both hands."

Having said that, he turned his head and ordered his subordinates: "Bring Li Huìyi's clothes here!"

Soon, Li Huiyi was brought over.

Under the torment of frequent poison attacks, in just half a month, she had lost her former charm and allure.

The beautiful face was pale and thin, with long black hair falling dishevelled around her like a rose that had bloomed and withered.

The moment she appeared, Yun Tuo's gaze fixed on her instantly, his brows furrowed, his eyes trembling uncontrollably.

Damn it! What has she been through this whole time How could she become like this!

Li Huiyi thought the harsh words from that night would be enough to make Yun Tuo completely give up on her, but she didn't expect him to come looking for her again. When their eyes met, she instinctively dodged, feeling guilty and inferior, and even more unwilling to let him see her so pathetic.

And her evasive reaction fell into Yun Tuo's eyes, piercing his heart deeply.

Do you like Charles that much Like him enough to put up with being tormented by his side, rather than even glance at another man!

Seeing everyone had arrived, Yun Tuo was still dumbfounded. Unable to help himself, he pushed him, "What are you waiting for Hurry up and bring your wife over!"

Yun Tuo clenched his fists and walked towards Li Huayi.

Feeling the man's imposing presence, Li Huiyi took a step back, but was grabbed by the wrist. "I ask you one last time, will you come with me"

He gripped her wrist so tightly that she could feel his resentment.

Li Huiyi lowered her eyes to look at the large hand gripping her wrist. The love she had suppressed for so long grew like fungus, and all her disguises were torn apart.

She said, "Okay."

The man who stirred her soul, the man who captivated her heart, how could she refuse him any longer

Perhaps because she had expectations that were too high, upon receiving a positive answer, Yun Tuo became doubtful. She tightened her grip on her wrist, "Are you really willing"

But actually, whether she wants to or not, he's going to take her.

"I am willing."

Li Huiyi slowly raised her head, looking into Yun Tuo's eyes and pleading, "But please take my younger brother with you."

Upon hearing this, Yun Tuo was startled. He finally understood why Li Huiyi hadn't left with him before—the biggest reason was to protect her younger brother!

He gripped her hand tightly, pulling her close to him. His eyes were cold as he stared at Charles, "Let her go!"

Apart from Fu Lingxiao, everyone else in Charles' eyes were lowly, contemptible people whom he didn't bother with at all.

"Mr. Fu, please go ahead. I won't see you off."

After speaking to the man in the car, Charles turned and walked into the castle.

"Yun Tuo immediately drew his gun and blocked the way, "Don't even think about leaving until you hand over the person!"

At the same time, a nonchalant voice came from inside the car: "I remember, your fastest record for capturing a castle was half an hour. Want to try challenging it, fifteen minutes"

Situ Xun replied calmly, "We can try. I believe it won't be difficult."

Charles stopped in his tracks and turned back to Fu Lingxiao, "Mr. Fu, everything should have limits. I respect you, and I hope you can give me the same respect."

"The fact that you can still stand here and talk to me about respect, Your Highness, is the greatest respect I could possibly give you."

Fu Lingxiao let out a light sneer, his words tinged with amusement, languid and carefree.

Every word and phrase was laced with mockery, disdain, and a choking threat, as if a king high above, wielding absolute power of life and death with a mere thought!

As a member of the royal family, Charles had never been treated with such disdain.

Honor was challenged again and again, a burning rage ignited in his heart. But with rationality as his guide, he endured it all nonetheless.

To bring down Li Yuechen was only a punishment for Li Huanyi, the betrayer. It served no other purpose and it wasn't worth tearing his face apart with Fu Lingxiao over a useless person. It wouldn't benefit him at all.

Charles, with a sinister gleam in his eyes, ordered his men to bring Li Yue over.

After two years apart, Li Huìyī finally saw her younger brother.

He leaned heavily on his cane, walking with a trembling gait. Though he was only in his early twenties, he was ravaged, looking like an aged man. His body was gaunt, his spine hunched.

"The moon has sunk!"

Li Huiyi rushed forward and hugged him, tears welling up in her eyes. During the half month she had been imprisoned, she had even thought of the worst possible outcome. Fortunately...

"Thank goodness you're alright..."

"He's coming back," Yun Tuo let out a breath of relief and whispered, "Huayi, take your brother to the car first. We can talk about everything when we get home."

"Mm."

Li Huiyi supported Li Yuechen, Yuntuo protected them and helped them get into the car. He stood at the car door to prevent Charles from suddenly making trouble.

Charles was indeed furious, but he did nothing more about it.

Fu Lingxiao saw that he was still honest and too lazy to make things difficult for him.

He just looked at him and warned in a low voice, "Since I took them from you today, from now on they belong to me. I've always been short-tempered, protective of my own, and unreasonable. I hope Your Highness will remember this and stay away from my people."

He shut the window, then told the driver, "Go."

Yun Tuo immediately got into the car, the convoy started quickly, Si Tu Xun led his war squad to follow behind, and everyone left in a mighty and imposing manner.

Prince, being treated this way, Baron Balren was so humiliated that his teeth ached. He clenched his jaw and said angrily, “Your Highness, we can act at any time.”

This is Y country, their sphere of influence. They have deployments everywhere. If they really make a move, they'll surely have the upper hand!

Charles gazed at the departing convoy, his deep eyes blazing with murderous intent, yet he said, "No need."

A petty grievance can lead to great disorder. He swallowed this humiliation today...

……

Two hours later.

A private jet emblazoned with the Fu Group logo took off from Black Royal Airport.

The moment he flew out of Y country's borders, the news reached the palace. The entire royal family of Y country let out a sigh of relief; he was finally gone!

On a private jet.

Yun Tuo arranged for Li Yuechen, and then took Li Huiyi to the next-door bedroom to rest.

Li Huiyi grabbed Yun Tuo's hand and said, "I want to thank Mr. Fu first."

"No need to rush, Lord Fu doesn't mind these things, and he doesn't want to be disturbed right now. You should rest well first, and I'll take you there another day."

In the middle of their conversation, Yun Tuo had already pulled Li Huiyi into the bedroom.

Closing the door, he rushed to embrace her, apologizing fervently, "I'm so sorry, I had no idea your brother was in Charles's hands and that you were being mistreated."st the top of her head, "Silly."her eyes watered, but she held them back.- Back at the manor, it was already morning.Fu Lingxiao took Mu Xing to the medical building. Yu Rong saw that Mu Xing was inju...
