Hua Manman had originally thought she must have lost her mind, foolishly rushing forward to protect Prince Zhao.
But after waking, she finally understood that she hadn't lost her mind.
She had seen a familiar shadow in Princess Rouwan.
The shadow of her father.
Baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, full of ferocity and violence—like a man-eating monster.
Back when her father used to abuse her, her greatest hope was that someone would come and save her.
This hope had even grown into an obsession.
It was what compelled her to rush forward so recklessly when Princess Rouwan attacked.
'No one else could be her savior.'
'So she would fulfill this obsession herself.'
「The next day」
Rumors that Prince Zhao and Princess Rouwan had come to blows spread throughout Shangjing.
Outsiders, unaware of the inside story, were appalled. To hear that Prince Zhao would dare to strike his own mother was a monstrous act of filial impiety.
