Master Head of the Dragon Soul

Chapter 41

Chu Feng hugged the little girl and made all kinds of funny motions; Duo Duo was especially happy and her happy laughter was non-stop.

“Chu Feng, be careful. Don’t drop Duo Duo.” Yun Muqing watched carefully from behind, worried and nervous as she dissuaded him; she seemed a little gloomy.

So the information on the Internet was right, when a father takes care of a child, it was practically the end of the world, so scary!

As for Duo Duo, she happily leaned against Chu Feng’s wide chest with a big smile. Whenever she saw somebody, she had a proud expression as she greeted and called out to those people. “Grandpa Zhao, this is my Daddy. My Daddy is back!”

“Aunty Liu, my Daddy is a soldier and a big hero. From now on, ask your nephew to stay away from my Mommy and stop disturbing her. Otherwise, hehe, I won’t go easy anymore…”

“Da Huang, Da Huang, how are you? From now on, I won’t be sharing my snacks with you because my Daddy is back. I want to spend time with him. Hehe… Goodbye, Da Huang! You will surely find your owner too!”

Under the glow of the golden sun, it was warm and cosy. The sunshine cast its rays on both the big figure of the father and the tiny figure of the daughter, their shadows intertwined with each other, looking harmonious and admirable. Yun Muqing appreciated the beauty of the pleasant scene before her and couldn’t help but feel touched. Her eyes turned red and her thoughts filed in, one after another.

The both of them really behaved like father and daughter. If… if only Chu Feng was really Duo Duo’s dad. If only this moment could be preserved forever, how great would that be?

As soon as she had this thought, Yun Muqing was shocked. She blushed and panicked, then quickly stuffed this crazy thought to the back of her head as she scolded herself, “Eh, Yun Muqing, what are you thinking about? Chu Feng is only pretending, and you are only doing this so that Duo Duo will have a complete childhood. Don’t forget that he is only pretending to be Duo Duo’s dad… Calm down, calm down.” Yun Muqing took a deep breath, then tried very hard to return to her previously calm state and control her wild heartbeat.

Ring ring! At this point, a ringtone broke the silence.

“Yun Muqing, did you really think that you can escape the family’s control?” Through the phone came Yun Tao’s ruthless and condescending voice. “I’ve told you that grandpa has already accepted the Li Family’s bridal gifts worth two hundred million. Your marriage plans with Young Master Li are set in stone!” As Yun Muqing’s pretty face darkened, there was evident schadenfreude in Yun Tao’s poisonous voice. “In three days time, Young Master Li will personally arrive to grandly escort you, the bride. Cousin, congratulations to you.”

Yun Muqing felt her heart drop; what she had been worrying about was finally going to happen.

A few days ago, Chu Feng helped her drive Yun Tao away and avoided the devastating ‘bride kidnapping’. However, the harsh words that Yun Tao said before he left has worried Yun Muqing ever since.

Forging ties with the Li Family through marriage was grandpa’s idea. He—the leader of the Yun Family, who was a man of his word—personally devised this plan. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

If he has already accepted the Li Family’s bridal gifts worth two hundred million, that obviously meant that grandpa thought of this marriage as necessary.

Yun Changqing had been in charge of the Yun Family for decades and had personally built the family name up to its glory today. In the Yun Family, he was very powerful and his words carried a

lot of weight.

When Yun Muqing got pregnant out of wedlock, he gave the order to kick her out of the family. Although the Yun Family was big and had more than a hundred people, nobody, including her own parents, dared to plead for mercy on her behalf; nobody dared to stand up against the intimidating old man.

Now that the old man had personally ordered Yun Muqing to marry the Young Master Li so that both families could forge ties, nobody from the Yun Family dared to object.

From the beginning till the end, Yun Muqing was nothing but a tradable commodity to that old man. All he thought of was how to extend his power and cared nothing for familial relationships and feelings.

Yun Muqing felt wronged and reluctant, unbidden emotions sprung up within her and she really didn’t want her whole life to be controlled by them like a wooden marionette. “Yun Tao, don’t you even think about it. I will never agree to this marriage, and will never get married again. You’d better give it up!” Yun Muqing retorted angrily as she gripped her handphone tightly.

On the other end of the line, Yun Tao sneered with disdain, “Cousin, I’m only informing you. Your opinion is none of my business. Anyhow, grandpa has already accepted the Li Family’s bridal gifts. So, do you have the ability to get grandpa to send the bridal gifts back?”

“You!” Yun Muqing was flustered and exasperated; everybody in the Yun Family knew that to Yun Changqing, power was more important than life itself. It would be easier to touch the sky than it would be to get him to return money he had received.
