OPEN YOUR MASK, PRINCESS!
Episode 468 THE WISE LEADER
The pace of five pairs of steps seemed to be able to knock down the floor they incandescent so hurriedly. Weini let Grace run first and ordered her bodyguards to continue escorting behind. While Weini and the others continued to run until Stevan preceded him in order to be on par with him.
“Sorry... I don't really know what happened? Why have you guys become so sweet? Especially Grace...” Stevan said, he even forgot that he had just come out of the hospital and his physique was not yet fully strong, but it was impossible that he would be left behind while the others ran.
“Yes my dear Stevan, you have not recovered. Stop running, don't let your internal injuries get bad again.”
Weini pulled Stevan's hand to stop running, as they stopped completely, Dina and Fang Fang at the back braked.
Stevan was dull, his face paled and Weini knew this was not good for the man. “Look at you, you should be thinking more about your safety as well sis.” Weini murmured that at that time also provided transfer of energy for Stevan, at least so that the stamina of the man could survive.
“What's the matter, miss? What happened?” Ask Stevan ngos-ngosan.
“It's about Grace's father, let him pay attention to his father first. Fang Fang, lead brother Dina and brother Stevan to the north pavilion, lest he run again. I have to get there, I'll wait for you there.” Weini's orders, he immediately turned around and ran fast no matter what answer Stevan threw.
“Heran... We were taken by car, why are we now told to walk to another house? Is it far away?” Dina gawked in surprise, the others were anxious but she thought of another anxiety instead. He was not able to run and thought it was comfortable to move places in this area with the help of a car.
Fang Fang looked flatly at Dina, but Stevan was more honest, he looked up to his best friend. Dina felt insinuated, she immediately silenced with a manyun. “Maap.” Said Dina with half sincerity.
“The pavilion is pretty close from here, we don't need a car to get there. Let's follow me, we have to catch up soon miss.” Fang Fang said that he remained friendly to Dina, however he continued to carry out his duties as a bodyguard and sometimes as a servant.

Grace felt half her heart breaking, yesterday she had just lost her brother and now the unpleasant news came from her father. He was inexhaustible, why did all these unfortunate conditions come at the time when he and Weini were trying to beg for forgiveness from Kao Jing?
The two bodyguards who came to Weini earlier delivered bad news for Grace, how could they not? If his father is unexpected it turns out to have courage and recklessness that was not thought of before. If something bad happens to Kao Jing, it feels like Grace can no longer survive in this Li residence. He was right to be a kara and had no face to continue to depend on Weini, even though Weini treated him well. What Kao Jing and Chen Kho did was enough to tarnish Grace's image as their only family.
Grace's achy footsteps finally reached the destination, she forgot all her fatigue, she had never run so fast even she was surprised where she obtained this kind of strength.
“Where is my father?” grace asked the bodyguard in the pavilion that Kao Jing told her he was brought here.
A bodyguard saluted Grace then showed the room where Kao Jing was being treated.
Without wasting any time, Grace galloped again to the room. Dad, please don't go! Don't die! Grace continued to pray in her heart, overwhelming fear haunting her.

Haris had just checked on Kao Jing and then covered the blanket over her treated body. Xiao Jun stood next to his father, he kept the question in need of an answer until his father seemed calm and ready to accept the question.
“Dad, can you be sure we don't have to take him to the hospital?” Xiao Jun asked worriedly, Kao Jing's condition was very vulnerable to infection.
Haris smiles casually, “He will improve after wean.” Answer Haris briefly.
Haris nodded in understanding, “Thank God then, I only feel concerned if something happens to Mr. Kao Jing... Grace must be very sad.” Xiao Jun who could not bear to let Grace bear the burden of the actions of her father and brother.
“Everything that happens must be on the permission of the Powerful One, there is no one to blame and no one to feel guilty about. They do and know very well the consequences for their deeds.” Haris muttered wisely enough to deal with the problems in his employer's family.
The door suddenly opened violently so Haris and Xiao Jun turned to the door simultaneously. Grace ran in with red eyes and wet with tears, her eyes focusing no longer on Xiao Jun or Haris standing there, but on Kao Jing who was lying unconscious.
Grace's knees were limp as she looked at Kao Jing's apprehensive physical condition, pale white face and lips, her hair and extremely miserable facial features. Her tears broke while hugging her father's hand from the side of the bed, Grace sitting limp there.
“Daddy... Why is dad that determined? Didn't you consider me? There's still me here, I need dad.. I want daddy..” Cry Grace. After finding out what happened from Weini's bodyguard's story, Kao Jing attempted suicide by thrusting a fork into her stomach. It was fortunate that the bodyguard in time found Kao Jing's body lying with a fork stuck in the side of her stomach. But still, Kao Jing lost blood and was unconscious.
After somewhat satisfied crying, Grace looked towards Xiao Jun and Haris standing up, a gaze that truly made Xiao Jun's heart unable to bear to see her straight away.
“Grace, calm down. My father checked my uncle's condition. He's been treated, the wound's been sewn up. After weaning, uncle will definitely improve.” Clearly Xiao Jun was slow and trying to calm Grace down.
Grace shook her head in disbelief, she pulled out her father's blanket and saw a bandage wrapped around her father's waist that contained a lot of blood. “Why only treated outside? What if the wound went through the inside? Is it because my father is a prisoner that he doesn't deserve help? Is this fair to us? Jun... I beg Jun, just exchange it for my life as long as my father can be taken to the hospital, I am willing to take his place in custody.” Whining Grace, he even knelt in front of Xiao Jun and Haris.
Xiao Jun went awry, trying to wake Grace up but the girl remained on her knees. “Grace, believe me no one thinks like that. No one wants to let your father go. Do you judge I have such low morals?”
Xiao Jun had a hard time convincing Grace that at the right moment, Weini arrived and was surprised to see Grace kneeling before Xiao Jun who was pulling the girl's hand. As soon as she saw Weini standing in front of the door, Grace immediately approached Weini on her knees. He didn't care if his knees were scratched because they were being dragged like that.
“Grace, what are you doing?” Weini ran a little towards Grace and then froze so that her position was the same as her.
“Nona... Please exchange my life with my father. I beg you to let my father be admitted to the hospital, let me take his place in prison.” Isak Grace, he kowtowed repeatedly but managed to thwart Weini.
The heartwarming and tense scene did not escape the attention of Stevan, Dina who had just arrived. The two of them gaped at the circumstances they did not understand, but Fang Fang immediately ran over and knelt in front of Weini, following what his master had done. Stevan, who did not understand what but could not bear to see Grace weeping like that, immediately followed what the two girls were doing, as he rushed to Grace's position, and cried, he also accidentally nudged Dina's shoulder in front of him until the girl screamed.
Attention was on Dina whose new presence was realized, but it was back to Grace and the others who insisted on pleading.
“Wake up, why are you begging like that? Let me see the condition of uncle first, then I can decide what should be done.” Uajr Weini with a soft yet firm tone. Inevitably, Grace stood up, as did Fang Fang and Stevan who followed whatever Grace did.
Weini stepped closer to Kao Jing, she had no opinion before she examined him directly. Holding it
his old uncle's pulse, then looked towards the wound that had been bandaged. His gaze turned to Haris who had been standing still and still, the body language of his adoptive father was already very weini, in Weini's assessment of Haris' calm countenance, kao Jing's condition was not something to worry about.
“Grace, I checked uncle. From my pulse and observation, his condition is fine. But you are very anxious and want uncle to get intensive care?” Weini asked gently to her cousin.
Grace nodded then took out her alibi. “Miss, I only have a father left, I'm so afraid he's in pain or something. That's why I want my father hospitalized to be more appropriately medically examined.”
Weini understood what Grace was worried about, she looked at Haris and Xiao Jun. “I understand how you feel, Grace. I must have done the same in your position, but why did father and Xiao Jun seem to object? Do you have any reasons I can consider?”
Haris nodded slowly, his smile thinly expanding after he just remained silent expressionless. “Sorry miss, I am impressed presumptuous and take a decision without your consideration. As you have checked, Mr. Kao Jing's condition is no longer worrying, I have already cleaned and sewed his wound. Medicinal potion
the Wei clan is very potent by generations, after the lord Kao Jing siuman, then his condition will stabilize again. Besides.my consideration is more about the position of master Kao Jing himself. Our condition is grieving, as much as possible
maybe we should silence this matter so that it is not known to the public. This will make it difficult for Mr. Kao Jing when you seek forgiveness for him, miss. Suicide is considered an act of cowardice that is afraid of punishment, the public perception here is like that. I can't imagine if we're going to take her home
sick, we can't silence the mouth of the crowd. Please miss consider again.”
Grace was stunned, her panic and emotions blinded her reasoning. He was unable to think clearly at that time and even almost dragged his father in a much more difficult position. Weini agreed with Haris's view, it is not easy to deal with problems wisely which sometimes seem unfair on the one hand.
“Alright, I understand father's worries, and understand your anxieties, Grace. We are here to seek forgiveness as I planned, for that I order all the residents of this house to keep their mouths shut on this case.” Weini's orders were firm.
All who heard immediately bowed respectfully, including Dina and Stevan who were initially stiff but quick to adjust.
“And so that you may calm down, I will send our family's personal doctor to treat uncle until he recovers. They can be trusted so you don't worry anymore huh.” Weini said as she looked gently at Grace.
Grace couldn't help but cry again, then knelt before Weini. “Let me thank you for your kindness, miss.”
