Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1299 Monetary compensation isn’t enough.

　　After the court declared the judgment, Li Xue came out along with others. The media people were all excited to interview her but since there were royal bodyguards around, none dared to be reckless.

Lin Xinyi looked at them and couldn’t help but smile internally. Only if there weren’t royal bodyguards around, could she already guess the scenario. Turning to look back at Li Xue, she said, “Li Xue, even though the media are behaving restricted right now, it won’t be good to keep them like that for long. We have to go forward to give them the statements.”

Li Xue nodded to her with a smile. “Then I will go whenever you say, Sister Xinyi. Even right now.” She said and was ready to walk with her but Lin Xinyi shook her head, suddenly getting all awkward.

”No, no, Li Xue, it’s okay. You don’t have to go. I will help you with that. You can stay here and talk with your ….” She was about to say ‘your mother’, but then she paused to correct herself. “You can stay here and talk to Her Highness.” She said with a smile and at her words like that Li Xue felt really awkward.

Her brows jutted as she asked, “Sister Xinyi, is there something?” Then her eyes turned to look at Su Fai who immediately shrugged his shoulders in nothingness.

Lin Xinyi also denied it. Shaking her head, she quickly said, “We have already won the case. What could there be? There is nothing. You can have your talk now. I will go and talk to the reporters, okay?”

She said and even though Lin Xinyi said it like that, Li Xue felt doubtful about that. But still nodding to her, she agreed. “Okay, Sister Xinyi. Call me when you need me.”

Lin Xinyi nodded, before walking away. 

Li Xue turned to look back at Su Fai and raised her brows. To which, the man quickly said, raising his hands in surrender. “Believe me, I wasn’t the one to reveal it. It was the prince. He said that you are his sister and he was there to support you. So, she might have gotten too overwhelmed with that.” 

He said and Li Xue turned to look at Shin You Jun with a glare. And her glare was something that You Jun feared. So, the moment he received one, he scooted closer to his mother and swallowed down the non-existent saliva down his throat.

”Why are you looking at me like that? I just stated the truth. You are my sister. Can’t I even say that? Furthermore, I didn’t glare at you when you came to my college and pretended to be my younger sister. Then why are you doing so?” 

Li Xue pursed her lips. Can this boy be a little more better? 

Shaking her head internally, she turned to look back at Su Fai and said, “It’s okay, I will go back and tell her everything on my own. Until then will you …” 

Before she could even speak, the man nodded to say, “Sure, I will go and look after her. You … You stay here …” He said and was about to turn away to walk but then as if remembering something that he was forgetting, he stopped in his tracks to turn back to look at the three. 

Then quickly giving a small bow, he bade a polite goodbye to the royal queen and left. Behind Chen Rui couldn’t help but chuckle at his hurried gesture. 

”Xiao Xue, this boy was really sweet. Who is he?” She said, and Li Xue smiled. 

”He is Su Fai, CEO of my agency and also an old college friend. He went abroad back then and has returned recently. But our friendship stayed. He even helped me a lot in my career.” She said and Chen Rui nodded. 

”Nice, he looks like a nice guy.” She said and Li Xue nodded. 

Then they talked for a short while. Shin You Jun remained silent to avoid the consequences. But after some time, their thoughts went in the same direction. Li Xue looked around and couldn’t help but ask with her brows jutted in confusion. 

”By the way Ma, Pa has not come out with us. And it’s been a while since he is not around, is there something?” 

Chen Rui also followed her gaze and looked around. But even without finding Shin Tingming around, she wasn’t anxious. Smiling, she turned back to look at Li Xue to say, “It’s nice to see you keep a check on your father. But it’s okay. He will be coming soon. There might be some procedures remaining to look after. He must be caught with them.” 

She said and Li Xue nodded to her understandingly

While at the same time inside the judge’s private chamber, Shin Tingming sat across the desk and stared at the old man who was the judge of the case. Behind him, his royal guards were standing highlighting his majestic aura to its fullest. 

”Your Majesty, how could I help you? I thought the case had already been dealt with in the way you asked. The offender was punished more heavily than she could take. Is there still something with which you are unsatisfied?” 

The judge said with smug thought, thinking that he might have satisfied the man already. But his expression of confidence changed when he saw there was no change in the expression of the man. 

”Do you think monetary compensations could satisfy me, Mr. Yan? From when did the royal family start using money to punish the offenders?” Shin Tingming said and his words stunned the judge. He didn’t know what he meant but those words did send chills down his spine. 

Feeling anxious, he stuttered to ask, “My apologies, Your Highness, but I didn’t understand what you mean? Isn’t this the general community case? How is it related to the affairs of the royals?” His forehead already formed the beads of sweats of anxiousness.
