Chapter 2: 002 Pregnant Woman, A Bit Fierce

The Rong Jing before her eyes was clearly a pregnant woman on the verge of childbirth, yet she was lazy, casual, mysterious, and noble!

She was clearly speaking in a pleasant tone with a harmless smile, yet she was even more imposing than those who were sharp, arrogant, and conceited. She inspired an involuntary sense of dread, making people afraid to approach. Lady Xu felt somewhat at a loss.

Was this really Rong Jing?

Was this really a pregnant woman?

It took Lady Xu a long while to recover her senses; she couldn't care about that much anymore.

The Rong family was the most prestigious scholarly family in the Kingdom of Dongjing, and her daughter would soon be selected as a female official to serve the Empress Dowager.

Once she gained the Empress Dowager's favor, she wouldn't have to worry about her daughter's marriage. With the Rong family's prestige and her daughter's talents, even if she couldn't climb her way to the Crown Prince, she could at least climb her way to another prince!

At this critical juncture, the Rong clan could not afford any scandals, otherwise, it would ruin her daughter's bright future and destroy the future of the Rong family!

Rong Jing was a child of the first branch. Her eldest brother and sister-in-law had both perished long ago, so the first branch could be said to have no heirs left and could not represent the Rong clan at all.

This brat deserves to die!

Today, the bastard in Rong Jing's womb must die, and this impure woman must die as well!

"Rong Jing, you are not even worthy of having me personally take action!"

Lady Xu snorted coldly to bolster her courage and ordered, "Someone, come! All of you, attack her together! Hit her stomach, hit her hard!"

Hearing this, Rong Jing truly became angry.

No matter what, the child was innocent; this old woman was truly ruthless!

Rong Jing had always followed one principle: if someone treats me with an inch of respect, I will treat them with a yard; if someone destroys a grain of my existence, I will seize three valleys from them!

Facing the oncoming group of servant women, Rong Jing felt no fear. Her eyes grew calm and deep, as serious and solemn as if she were treating a patient. One hand protected her belly, while the other gripped her hairpin tightly.

She had practiced martial arts since childhood. In the modern era, she had been the most sought-after private female bodyguard in B City, not only because of her martial skills but also because she was proficient in medicine.

Rong Jing integrated fist techniques with acupuncture techniques, using the hairpin as a needle to execute martial arts forms. Although the scene was chaotic, she remained calm and composed. Every time she struck with the hairpin, she accurately hit an acupoint. Dealing with these servant women who only knew brute force was more than enough!

Before long, four or five servant women had fallen one by one, without a single one left standing!

Being a pregnant woman, Rong Jing was somewhat out of breath, but she ignored it directly. She elegantly tucked the hairpin back into her hair bun, then leisurely straightened her clothes. Only then did she look up at Lady Xu with a harmless smile, "Second Aunt, it's your turn."

Lady Xu had long been staring blankly in shock. Being asked this, she let out a terrified scream and turned to flee.

Heavens, this definitely wasn't Rong Jing. Otherwise, she must be possessed; how could she have become so powerful!

Want to run?

It won't be that easy!

The real Rong Jing had lost both parents at a young age. Instead of showing mercy, her biological aunt Lady Xu had kicked her while she was down, making things even worse through repeated attempts to harm her. Not only had she seized the assets of the first branch, but she had also used every possible means to strike her name from the Rong clan's genealogy.

If she didn't take this opportunity to teach her a lesson today, her surname wouldn't be Rong!

Rong Jing immediately chased after her. Lady Xu was both fat and clumsy; she hadn't run far before she was panting heavily from exhaustion. Seeing Rong Jing chasing her, she was so frightened that she accidentally tripped and fell with a "thud"!

Rong Jing pressed forward step by step, her smile innocent and harmless yet bone-chilling. There is a villain for every villain; today, she intended to be a villain to the fullest!

However, at that moment, on a high ground not far away, a man pulled on his reins, stopped, and looked toward this side.

His face could not be seen; one could only see his snow-white robe hanging down and three thousand strands of ink-black hair cascading like a waterfall. Snow-white clothes and ink-black hair—beyond that, he wore not a single piece of adornment.

So simple, yet even seeing only his back made him unforgettable.

He seemed to have just happened to be passing by and stopped only when he witnessed the scene of Rong Jing's recent sprint.

"Prince Mo, that pregnant woman is a bit... a bit fierce," the attendant beside him said in disbelief.

"Mm." His voice carried a chill, deep and quite pleasant to the ear, magnetic and slightly husky, noble and sexy.

If his voice alone possessed such charm, heaven knows how heavenly his face must be!

A pity... it couldn't be seen.

He only paused for a moment before snapping the whip and galloping away. Meanwhile, on this side, Rong Jing had closed in on Lady Xu, her mouth curling into a sinister, wicked grin...
