The Concubine’s Daughter Came Around - Chapter 42 - Punching Pan Qiyi
Feeling someone was coming out, Pan Qiyi looked up happily. She thought it was Wu Jitian who changed his mind and came out to get her in. Unexpectedly, she just saw Dong Ling who defeated her in the poetry competition.
Pan Qiyi got shocked! This was Wu Jitian’s mansion. Why did Dong Ling come out of it?!
Soon, she realized that Dong Ling must have come to seduce Prince Jitian! She thought, “What a small world!”
She pulled her expensive gauze sleeve and gave a scornful look, as if she had seen Dong Ling through. She said proudly, “Look! What a shame on you! How dare you come and seduce a prince?”
Ah-oh… Dong Ling had meant to leave. But hearing such a sarcasm, she had an explosion of anger!
She replied, “That’s your plan, okay? Don’t think everyone else is just like you. What do you come here for? Don’t you know?”
Dong Ling exposed Pan Qiyi’s true plan, which made the latter exasperated! But without a better excuse, she failed to talk back.

Dong Ling realized that Pan Qiyi was too stupid to fight back. Looked like it would be so easy to deal with such a silly girl. So, Dong Ling just ignored her and turned to leave.
“Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to my lady like that?”
Suddenly, the maid beside Pan Qiyi shouted arrogantly. She was Qinglian and sure, she was defending her master.
She continued, “My lady is from a notable family. She’s beautiful and highly educated. But look at you! A humble daughter of a concubine. You’re rude and impolite! Even your own families dislike you! How can you ever equate yourself with her?”
Wow! Dong Ling didn’t expect a maid to talk so wildly and aggressively. She turned around again. To be honest, she hadn’t planned to argue with them. But they were going too far! What a reckless maid!
Qinglian noticed the angry look on Dong Ling’s face. She knew she had enraged Dong Ling. She looked at Pan Qiyi proudly as if she could claim the credit.
Pan Qiyi nodded, in a cheery mood. She took out a handkerchief artificially from her sleeve and covered her nose with it. She gave a disdainful look at Dong Ling and said, “Oops, I almost forgot who she was!”
She then turned to her maid and said, “Qinglian, I’m glad you reminded me! She’s a humble girl. Her mom is a concubine who failed to teach her own daughter well. Shameless!”
Then she chuckled.
Dong Ling’s face was flushed with anger. She hated it most when someone looked down on her family background or calumniate her mother without forethought!
She listened silently when they mocked at her. She clenched her fists and had a prevailing thirst for blood!
“You asked for it!” said Dong Ling coldly with a poker face. But Pan Qiyi and Qinglian felt chilly! They were scared!
“Wanna run? Too late!” thought Dong Ling.
Quick as Dong Ling was, she kicked Pan Qiyi and Qinglian to the ground! To work off more anger, she kicked Qinglian again!
“Ah!” yelled Qinglian. She didn’t realize what happened before she was kicked again and had a heavy fall! She yelled out of pain!
Obviously, Dong Ling wasn’t going to stop! She punched Pan Qiyi again!
Since she had the time travel and came to this age, she had been humiliated and aggrieved just because she was the daughter of a concubine.
She hadn’t even suffered that in the 21st century! She must fight back, whatever age she was in!
Though she was angry, she didn’t use all her strength. After all, she only wanted to give vent to her anger. If she crippled Pan Qiyi, there would be big trouble!
Pan Qiyi had been spoiled and pampered since she was born. She couldn’t stand such punch or kick. Soon, she nearly passed out!
“Stop! Stop punching her!” yelled Qinglian! Her master was punched. Sadly, she could do nothing to help!
Dong Ling was obviously punishing Pan Qiyi as a warning to others. Pan Qiyi’s maid offended her and she punched Pan Qiyi.
You know what? It worked so well! Qinglian crawled to Dong Ling, pulled her dress and begged, “Please! I’m begging you! Stop punching her! She values her face most! If her face is disfigured, she’ll die!”
It was a great satisfaction to Dong Ling when Qinglian completely changed her attitude. Dong Ling sat on Pan Qiyi’s back and asked harshly, “Well, do you want to get punished for her?”
“Yes! Yes, I do!” replied Qinglian when she nodded quickly. If she refused, she would also get punished after they went back home. After all, she started all this.
But if she helped her master now, maybe the latter would let go of her.
“Bang!” Dong Ling punched Qinglian hard and the latter fell on the ground. The corner of her mouth was bleeding.
“Does it hurt? Can you stand it?” asked Dong Ling. She looked down at Qinglian disdainfully. She punched her as hard as she just punched Pan Qiyi.
“Yes… I can.” replied Qinglian in a shaking voice. Her face was searing.
“Good, then.” said Dong Ling. She slapped Qinglian again and made her face swell up.
Looking at her, Dong Ling gave a cold smile.
Meanwhile, Pan Qiyi and Qinglian got down on all fours with their dresses in a fearful mess. Their faces turned pale and they shouted louder and louder.
Some passers-by heard their cries and came to see the fun. Soon, more and more of them arrived.
Right at this moment, Dong Ling didn’t realize that she would make Wu Jitian the laughingstock of the town because she was beating two girls in front of his mansion.
“What’s up? What’s the hurry?” asked Wu Jitian gently when Butler Liu rushed into his study. He had never seen Butler Liu panic like that!
Butler Liu was out of breath. He panted, “Miss… Miss Dong is punching Miss Pan in front of the main door.”
“Punch?” Wu Jitian raised his eyebrows, laughed and asked, “Are they still out there?”
Butler Liu was confused. The anxiety nearly killed him, but his master was still laughing.
He urged, “Please go and have a look, Your Highness. You know Miss Dong. What if she kills Miss Pan?”
With one wave of his meaty hand, Wu Jitian stood up and said, “Okay. I’m going to check on them.”
He left his study, followed by Butler Liu. As much as Butler Liu knew his master, Miss Dong was a perfect match for him. They both had a quick temper.
Before Wu Jitian arrived, he guessed Pan Qiyi must have enraged Dong Ling by doing something she shouldn’t. In his mind, Dong Ling never did anything wrong.
Just as he stepped out of the front door, he saw Pan Qiyi falling on the ground, not properly dressed. Dong Ling beat her black and blue. Her yelling had sunk to a whimper.
Dong Ling, however, bit her lips and remained silent with a serious look. Still, she kept punching Pan Qiyi.
Pan Qiyi, who nearly passed out, saw Wu Jitian come out. She thought Wu Jitian came out to help her. So, she sprang up at him and yelled prettily, “Your Highness! Your Highness, finally you come! I…”
She stopped on purpose. People around them talked and guessed what was happening.
They thought, “Wow, how poor Miss Pan is! Look how she was punched!”
Dong Ling gave a quick sidelong glance and snapped, “Shut up!”
Pan Qiyi was scared and she trembled! Dong Ling got her shell-shocked! After she regained consciousness, she poured out her woes to Wu Jitian as far as she could.
“Today, I came to visit you, Your Highness. When I knew you were busy, I was just going to leave you alone. Unexpectedly, Dong Ling rushed out and punched us! Your Highness! Help me! You must punish her!”
Wu Jitian disliked her voice. And he hated it more when someone spoke ill of Dong Ling. In terms of such conflicts, he always chose to believe Dong Ling, though she was kind of unpredictable. She would never fight anyone without a right reason.
“Why don’t you go and look into the mirror? What a mess you’re in!” said Wu Jitian neutrally.
A girl, before she was married, valued her appearance most. Hearing what Wu Jitian said, everyone else on site looked at Pan Qiyi.
Look! She had a bloody nose and a swollen face! She wasn’t properly dressed, either. It was exactly the same scene as it once happened in the poetry competition.
People pointed and talked about her. Women, among the onlookers, gossiped in a subdued voice.
“Look at her! The most beautiful girl? Seriously? The biggest joke, I suppose.”
“You bet!”
Hearing people scoffing at her, Pan Qiyi felt ashamed! It was just then did she realize how funny she looked!
She used to be the most beautiful girl in capital. She was the apple of the eye of her family and she had been spoilt! Never had she ever been humiliated like this!
She stood, with the help of Qinglian. She looked at Wu Jitian who remained indifferent and then at Dong Ling who looked peaceful. She gnashed her teeth in anger and cursed, “Dong Ling, wait! I’ll take revenge for all you’ve done to me! You’ll never get out of it!”
After she finished, she ran away quickly with Qinglian.
She remembered how she was humiliated in the poetry competition and how she was punched today!
