This time when she awoke from hibernation, her hair color change accelerated, turning from black to a shiny dark pink in just half a month. This made her uncomfortable, and subconsciously, she felt this hair color was too ostentatious.
What saddened her even more was that with this hair color she could no longer return to Capital Star.
At this moment, she finally understood the feeling Qin Mo had described of not being able to return—helplessness, bitterness, loss, sadness... A mix of emotions intertwined, eventually forming a bitter drink that she downed alone. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelꞁire.net
She couldn’t go back to Capital Star anymore, nor would she return to Elbert.
The Fu Family wouldn’t acknowledge her as their lady either.
"Who asked you to do this, you’re looking for death," Theresa, who had been in shock, finally reacted, madly rushing over to pull Lin Fu’s hair, but Xia Huangyu immediately stepped in front of her, blocking Theresa.
"Stop it, Theresa, have you gone mad? Look at yourself, how are you any different from a madwoman?" Xia Huangyu rebuked sternly, "Calm down for a moment, as long as I’m here, you won’t touch Lin Fu."
"Xia Huangyu!" Theresa’s eyes were bloodshot, and she screamed fiercely, "It’s not me looking for trouble, but her provoking the Imperial Family, her disrespect is outrageous. If you still bear the Xia name and are the heir to the Galaxy Empire Guardian Duke Family, you should be defending the honor of our Royal Family instead of standing in my way."
Xia Huangyu was stunned, unable to speak.
A sneer flashed across Theresa’s face, "What? Lost for words? Run out of arguments? I know you’re enchanted by this vile woman, but remember who you are. Didn’t you say before that even a prisoner shouldn’t forget their identity?"
"I’m not enchanted, I just respect Lin Fu for her character and talent, which has nothing to do with being enchanted," Xia Huangyu replied swiftly, snorting, "It’s you whose thinking is unhealthy, thinking everyone is like you. Lin Fu has saved so many people, she deserves my respect and protection."
"Stupid..." Theresa was so angry her face turned purple, insulted and despised.
"You selfish people will never understand, and remember, the Guardian Family protects not your Royal Family but the Galaxy Empire. If you keep thinking that we, the Guardian Family, are just dogs loyal to Mecklenburg, then you’ll end up just like Joseph IV."
Theresa was stunned, standing frozen in place.
People around also changed color, shocked at Xia Huangyu, while the male and female servants following Theresa directly fell to their knees with a thud.
Xia Huangyu had been holding back his anger for a long time; the betrayal he encountered on Helheim Star had left him very upset, and he harbored a lot of anger towards the Royal Family. It was only because of the education he had received since childhood that he had always controlled his temper.
But Theresa’s repeated madness, overbearing manner, and disdainful attitude finally angered him.
"You... you dare insult the Royal Family..." Theresa questioned angrily.
"What if I did? Do you still think the current Royal Family is the same as before? The authority of the Mecklenburg Royal Family has been completely spoiled by your father, how many top Nobles still hold the Royal Family in high regard? Everyone is just maintaining appearances, only you are still dreaming."
Xia Huangyu, with a ’I’m laying my cards on the table, I’m not pretending anymore’ demeanor, amused Lin Fu so much that she laughed.
