Rebirth of a Villainess 141 Banquet 27

Jin Ruimin turned just in time to notice how pale the face of Chen Yueming had become.

"It..It's not..nothing, Sect Leader Jin."

The GuBaiJin sect leader brows lifted with a questioning look in his eyes, as he watched the hands of Chen Yueming shook when holding his chopsticks.

The Fox King looked at the food one of the servants laid on his table, without warning a maid spilled the tray that contained the kettle of wine she was about to place on his table.

"A...apolo..gies...F..Fox...King!"

The voice shook terribly with fright as the maid fell to her feet to beg the fox king whose eye became even more layered with frost.

"Father is not going to take too kindly to the servant, why did she have to be so unfortunate to be the one serving him!"

Mou Hairong looked at the young maid who was on her knees pleading with her father to forgive her for dirtying his robes, the thought went through the mind of the fox princess as she looked on from her seat.

Every eyes in the room turned to the maid that was now crying, as she feared she might meet a horrible fate in the hands of the fox king whose demeanor remained unchanged.

"Fox King Yan, please overlook her act of carelessness! I and Lady Jin will take it upon ourselves not to let her go without punishing her severely!"

"Fox King, as Sect Leader Jin said, the maid in question will not face a light punishment. Please accept our sincere apology!"

Jin Ruimin and Jin Huiyan pleaded with the fox king to absolve the servant from their sect of her clumsy act.

The young master of the GuBaiJin sect eyes were fixed on the fox king, he saw a young looking man whose presence gave out ice there was nothing warm in his bearing. Cold blue eyes stared at the girl that pleaded with her head lowered.

Xu Hui's eyes became one of interest as they moved from the servant girl to the fox king who was a seat from her.

"This looks bad, would he demand her head, because that's what it looks like to me. Maybe he would hang it on the wall of his palace to display it for all to see."

When the thought formed in the mind of Xu Hui, a laugh escaped out of her as a conceited look covered her face.

"Lady Li, do you find the situation humorous?!"

Unable to contain himself, Jin Dongbin challenged the woman who was the daughter of the YuanLi sect leader.

"Bin!"

Jin Huiyan's voice held warning in them for her son not to speak without thinking. A blush formed on the face of the young master of the GuBaiJin sect after hearing his mother's voice that served to caution him.

"Young Master Jin, it is not that I find it amusing, but I find it difficult to keep a straight face when looking at what I see as a wolf about to eat a lamb, don't you think so too?!"

The cultivators on the other end of the hall and the sect leader with his wife stared at Xu Hui as though she sprouted two heads rather than one. A soft voice spoken from beneath the veil.

"I was right to have come."
