NovelEnglishI’ll Protect You!
The mansions of the City Lord’s Mansion and the Beiting Family were located on either side of the central axis. It was already late at night, and lanterns had been lit at the entrance of the City Lord’s Mansion. A few servants guarding the door were dozing off. When they heard footsteps, they raised their heads and glanced at the two of them. They did not even blink and went back to dozing off.
They did not seem to have any intention of opening the door.
’Ninth Young Master, let’s go in through that door!’ Mu Qingling pursed her lips. She was used to this kind of contempt, but she still felt very uncomfortable when the servants looked down on Beiting Huang.

There were two old women guarding the corner door. They were eating melon seeds. When they saw Mu Qingling and Beiting Huang coming together, their eyes scanned the two of them like a radar, as if they had done something shameful.
The two of them did not open the door. Instead, they guarded it. ’Miss, it’s past the hour. The door is already locked. You can’t enter today!’
’I, I, but if I don’t go in, what will I do at night?’ Mu Qingling knew the rules of the family. Her stepmother said that it was for her own good and was especially strict with her. She was so anxious that she jumped twice on the ground and was about to cry.
’What about the key? The lock is dead. Aren’t the two of you alive?’ With a glance, the two old women felt the air around them turn cold.
The two of them were out of their minds. They thought that it was late at night, but they didn’t expect a good-for-nothing like Beiting Huang to be so powerful with just one look. They couldn’t help but purse their lips and say disdainfully, ’Hey, son-in-law, let’s not talk about the fact that our eldest daughter hasn’t married yet. Even if she has, it’s none of your business!’
’Nonsense!’ Mu Qingling was so embarrassed that blood was about to drip from her face. She was about to step forward and argue with the two old women when Beiting Huang grabbed her wrist and blocked her behind her.
’Eldest Miss, what nonsense did we spout? If it wasn’t for the sake of being with the ninth young master tonight, how could you have missed the time to return to the residence?’ One of the old women with a ruffian’s mouth spat out melon seed shells as she said, ’There has never been a young lady like you who stayed out all night in the entire Luobeng City. Aren’t you afraid of tarnishing the Mu family’s reputation?’
Was this a servant? Beiting Huang had learned something new.
Mu Qingling was so angry that tears came out of her eyes. Beiting Huang gently patted her shoulder and raised her other hand to slap the old woman’s face. She used one hand to do the gentlest thing in the world, while her other hand did the cruelest thing. She slapped the old woman on both sides, and the old woman staggered and fell to the ground.

’Don’t worry, she won’t die!’ Beiting Huang comforted her with a smile. However, she would probably never hear again.
Her slap had not only injured her face. There was a little hidden force in her hand. This person’s eardrums should have been broken.
The other old woman was standing next to him, her legs trembling violently. Beiting Huang glanced at her from the corner of her eye and said in fear, ’I, I’ll open, open, open the door!’
She obediently opened the door and ran to the backyard before Beiting Huang and Mu Qingling could enter. She and the old woman on the ground had been ordered by Second Miss to wait for Mu Qingling at the corner door. Not only would they not let her in, but they would also humiliate her as much as possible.
Seeing this, Mu Qingling couldn’t help but worry. Beiting Huang patted her shoulder lightly. ’Don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you!’
