Bai Yan (cousin of Bai Suxin at paternal side) nudged me by her right elbow. I ignored her; picking my chopsticks, I started eating in the most graceful manner of my entire life.This dining etiquette really was exhausting. Don't slouch. Don't chew loudly. No slurping. Ahh.. I really wanted to lick the plate. The dishes were too tasty. I have to remind myself again and again in the entire meal not to forget my mission today.But.. I think.. no one would have notice if I eat one more buns, right?'Liu Shishi control your d*mn mouth! Stop chewing!'In the real world, I really have a good and big appetite. Mom raised me by indulging me with all kinds of foods. 'Thank you, Mom. Love you.'During company parties, you won't find me socializing with my colleagues; but you'll soon notice one voracious person sitting in a corner, burying her head in the plates full of deserts and meats.That's why, in my two years as office worker, I haven't saved enough money. I spent it all at online shopp
I know Chu Wanwan won't experience torture.Using her wits and intelligence and with the help of her allies and friends; she would eventually found not guilty. Due to 'not enough' direct evidence that might relate to the female lead as the true perpetrator, Chu Wanwan would be eventually be freed.'Of course, it's because she's the goddess female lead. What do you expect?'When I woke up, I immediately recognized my room. To my horror, I found Li Han by my bedside. I instinctively shrink my shivering self to my silk blanket. When the male lead saw my reactions, his blood-filled pupils constricted; his face was livid; the veins standing out on his neck and his pink lips pressed tightly.I jolted and quickly lowered my eyes.God knows since when those dark brooding eyes started studying my sickly face; as though he's thinking whether to kill me by biting my head off or by directly pulling my heart out from my chest.'So brutal!' I was so frightened, I broke out in a cold sweat.The male
"Leave."I watched how the guard dragged the battered Jin'er out. Tears burned my eyes. My heart felt so heavy. 'I never thought.. just who does he think he is? How dare him touched my people? Male lead, you're a bad person!'"Don't blame me. Persuading your servants to confess their master's scheme proves to be challenging. Devotion and loyalty– hah, you must be very kind to your servants.""So I thought, what's the need of their tongues if they won't tell me anything significant?""Li Han." My fingers clutched my blanket."I am a royal. Carelessly addressing me by my given name; don't you want your head, my lady?"I raised from the bed; walked towards the male lead and slapped him across the face. 'FuThe slap stunned him for seconds before Li Han's face turned scarlet and he balled his hands into fists.He was pissed!'But who cares? I'm also mad'Then in the next second, there was a conflicting emotion of amusement, displeasure and lust in those deep set of eyes. "Are you angry
"My lady, I already burned all the slavery contracts. As per your instructions, they are all given huge compensations for the years of their loyal service to the manor."After I begged the male lead, perhaps he finally pitied me or he just wants to humiliate me, Li Han agreed and released my people."And Jin'er?""She.. insist on seeing you my lady. That girl is very stubborn and said that she won't leave your side."In my bed, I hugged my knees to my chest and rested my cheek on one knee, closing my eyes.Bai Muro didn't object when I decided the dismissal of all of my servants and as their compensation, I granted their freedom, freed from slavery. Aside from that, I also gave them a good amount of silvers for them to restart their new life. I was too late and couldn't salvage their tongues. I'm afraid that the next time, I.. won't be able to save their lives.These days, Bai Muro's face was dark and ugly. The Prime Minister House became a laughing stock in the capital for having a
The damn author of 'Emperor and I' was one lazy ars***ehole! Because in the novel, the background story of the villain and the male lead weren't much any different. They both had childhood trauma. They were both unloved and ignored.Fighting for the throne, Prince Li Chen was killed and defeated by Li Hai and triumphantly became the new emperor.When the Duke of Hebei's House fell, Li Nian's mother committed suicide. Then the young boy was adopted by Emperor Li Hai. At the age of five, he trained him to be an assassin and spy. He grew up incapable of pain, fear and death— he became the emperor's puppet.When Li Nian met the female lead, for the first time.. his heart skipped a beat. He thought, killing this person will be very satisfying– this arrogant and hot-tempered princess, Chu Wanwan.'What a psycho!'"The assassination failed nevertheless right now, Nan King is in critical condition. Your Highness, we must strike while the iron is hot."I see. The Duke of Hebei was taking this
'This villain.. This crazy villain!'My eyes rested on his face, then I carefully examined this person's athletic build. Seconds later, I heard something clicked, blood started rushing into my head.(Please be advised: the next words contains a series of cursing): 'This motherf*cker! Son of a *beep! Bast*beep! Stup*beep*beep*beep***_ Someone, hurry, give me a gun!''Li Nian was the leader of the bandits! No, he's just a fake bandit. Recalling how I almost sh*t my skirt that day, my nose directly flared. I wanted to attack him like a raging bull.'How did I get myself involved with another psycho this early?' *crying emoticon* 'This poor villainess! I'm so pitiful.'He tried to kidnap me? I mean.. why me? I'm not the female lead. But when I asked him, Li Nian answered mysteriously: "Oh, I'm just collecting datas."Are you.. freaking kidding me?! "Datas..?" I angrily took back my hand from his."Angry?" Li Nian laughed."I wouldn't dare."'Agh! Just once.. I wanna punch him! Please, let
Chu Wanwan squeezed my arm harder before she finally let go of my poor thin arm. The round or moon-shaped silk fan called tuànshàn in my hand almost trembled. Compared to this body, Chu Wanwan is a martial expert whilst.. hello.. I can't even hurt a fly.My steps resumed. We left the female lead in there with a furious look on her gorgeous face. When we finally turned into a corner; I was certain that we were no longer in the female lead's view, my arrogant acting directly fell. My smug and vain face instantly changed into hilarious crying-mess face.'Mother of Pearls!'I need to see a physician. I think the female lead broke my arm. This body is very sensitive to pain.I think Jin'er noticed something. She made a gesture with her hands to the general and the other servants. I don't know how they understand her because they stopped and nodded in response.Jin'er put us in a good distance. She dragged me behind a tree. She let me put down my tuànshàn, her face looked troubled when my
My fingers from his forehead, slid down to his pale cheeks. I pretended to brush the invisible dirt on his porcelain skin. I asked, "Really?"Like a dog wagging his tail to his master, he answered: "I don't care if you lied to me."Li Han met my gaze and his tender eyes, his lips giving in to a smile. He took my hand from his chin; warm fingers touched mine and a palm slid under, forcing my hands apart."Suxin, you can lie to me more." The male lead moved his head to the side, softly kissing my fingers in the process. As if he's saying he wants me to continue lying to him. 'Buddy, you're driving me crazy!'"Please."Li Han held my hand like that of a child who doesn't want to get abandoned by it's mother duck. My eyes trembled. I quickly snapped my hands away from him as if I got burned. I stepped back, putting some more distance between us."How foolish."This is unfair, how does this even make sense? I want to ram my head into the wall. This is really driving me into nuts!My smile
