《The Missus Files for Divorce again》 Chapter 1 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Today was a big day. It was night. On the wedding bed. ¡°Bang¡ª¡± An ear-piercing gunshot pierced through the silence of the night. The woman touched the gunshot wound on her chest. Blood flowed out, and her eyes seemed to be filled with blood. ¡°Qin Yu, you betrayed me!!¡± The gentle and loving man on the bed earlier, was now holding a gun and saying cold words. ¡°I¡¯m an undercover agent of the ICPO (Interpol). My goal has been to uproot the entire Hellgate since I first met you nine years ago!¡± Nine years. Nine years of undercover work. ¡°Bai¡± was an internationally renowned assassin. She was considered the number one criminal on the international police¡¯s wanted list! As long as he dealt with her completely, he would have made a great contribution. This woman had always been arrogant and confident, like a beautiful black swan. She had founded Hellgate at the age of 15 and was now famous internationally. No one knew the real name of the sect master. Outsiders only knew that her name was Bai. She was proficient in medicine, poison, and assassination, and was famous for being a perverted genius in the underworld. She was vicious. Occasionally, she would be unreasonable and ruthless. She would never bow down to anyone. At this moment, Qin Yu felt that this woman should be crying now. She would kneel under his feet and beg for mercy. She would lick his toes and beg him to let her off. Unfortunately, he had miscalculated. ¡°Qin Yu, I¡¯ve always been a person who pays back others tenfold for what they do to me! Hehe¡­¡± The woman¡¯s charming smile made Qin Yu¡¯s eyebrows twitch. ¡°What are you going to do¡­¡± The woman¡¯s smile was like a bouquet of Bloody Marys as she slowly approached. Qin Yu raised his gun and prepared to shoot at her at any time. He could hear her breath beside his ear. ¡°Let me tell you a secret. I have leukemia. The doctor said that I was at the end of my life. That¡¯s why I married you. I had wanted to give you Hellgate after I died in half a year and let you inherit it! Now, it seems like there¡¯s no need¡­¡± ¡°¡­¡± Qin Yu¡¯s pupils immediately constricted. What! She had¡­ leukemia? No wonder she had been a little careless in the past six months and did not care about many things. ¡°You have no feelings for me even after nine years! If you want me dead so badly, then¡­ let¡¯s perish together! My dear!¡± No one rushed in when they heard the gunshots. It was obvious that they had been recruited. Her voice was as light as a butterfly¡¯s wings. The moment the woman finished speaking, she pressed on the sapphire ring on her finger. Then, she heard the entire Hellgate headquarters went ¡°bang¡±, ¡°bang¡±¡­ It exploded¡ª In the flames that soared into the sky, her smile was so bright and beautiful. It was as bright as a thousand suns. The moment Bai Weiyang woke up, she heard a female voice in her ear. ¡°Third Sister, no one knows which jerk you fooled around with on the train at the end of last month while you were drinking in Jin City! You were going to marry the Military Governor in the next few days, so you started to court death! Do you really want to keep your chastity for a jerk? You didn¡¯t hesitate to commit suicide to protect your chastity?¡± Bai Weiyang felt as if her entire body had been soaked in water. She felt extremely sore as she opened her eyes in a daze. It was a young girl wearing the latest dress and a gauze hat. She was dressed in the new style. She pointed at Bai Weiyang, who was lying on the bed with a pale face and pale lips, and said arrogantly. ¡°Third Sister, it¡¯s not that I want to criticize you, but you¡¯ve lost your chastity. Do you think you can still marry into a good family? What¡¯s wrong with being able to marry the Military Governor and be his wife now?! The Future Commander has so many concubines. They won¡¯t care if you¡¯re a virgin or not.¡± No one would care about a wife who was a retard! Chapter 2 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations She woke up in a daze and wanted to open her eyes, but her head was abnormally heavy. Suddenly, a strong consciousness surged into her brain like a tide. She fell heavily onto the bed. She¡­ was the mistress of Hellgate, Bai Weiyang. After a conflict with Qin Yu, she detonated a bomb and thought that she would die. However, she was reborn in the body of someone with the same name. Currently, it was the fourth year of the Republic of China (1915). She was reborn in a good post-aristocratic family in Jiang City. The Bai family had four daughters: Bai Ziyan, Bai Qinglian, Bai Weiyang, and Bai Hongye. The original owner was the third daughter of the Bai family, Bai Weiyang. Bai Weiyang wasn¡¯t the wife¡¯s daughter, but the concubine¡¯s daughter. Back then, Bai Zhengjun had taken a fancy to Madam Yang because his first wife had two daughters in a row. Not long after, Madam Yang got pregnant, and Madam Yang officially became Bai Zhengjun¡¯s second concubine. Bai Zhengjun looked forward to Madam Yang giving birth to a son to pass on the family lineage, which made Madam Zhou very unhappy! Madam Zhou was afraid that her status would probably plummet if Madam Yang really gave birth to a son. Therefore, during Madam Yang¡¯s pregnancy, she used many cheap shots and tricks! When Madam Yang gave birth that month, Madam Zhou drugged Madam Yang, causing her to give birth prematurely and give birth to¡­ a retarded child. She was even a daughter. Madam Yang died in childbirth. Bai Weiyang was left alone. When Madam Zhou saw that the Bai family¡¯s third child was a daughter who was born with severe retardation, she decided to generously raise her at home for 15 years. Bai Weiyang¡¯s role in the Bai family was basically the punching bag for the entire family. They scolded her if they didn¡¯t like her and beat her up if they were frustrated. In any case¡­ she was an imbecile. Bai Zhengjun didn¡¯t care because she was just a daughter and an idiot. Later on, Madam Zhou wanted to try for a son, but she gave birth to a daughter again¡­ Coincidentally, when Madam Yang was still alive, she had once saved Marshal Feng¡¯s life! When Marshal Feng saw that Madam Yang was pregnant, he promised that the boy she gave birth to in the future could be his godson, and the daughter she gave birth to could marry into the Feng family! Now that Bai Weiyang was 15 years old, she was of marriageable age! Last month, the entire Bai family went to attend when the Bai family¡¯s relatives held a wedding in Jin City. However, Madam Zhou did not like to be in the same carriage as The Third Bai, so she placed her alone in the third carriage. They found that Bai Weiyang¡¯s clothes were disheveled when she woke up¡­ Bai Weiyang was retarded, so she didn¡¯t try to commit suicide. Bai Weiyang recalled everything about this so-called suicide. It was Bai Qinglian who urged Bai Hongye. The two of them played with paper kites and the paper kites fell into the lake. The two of them deliberately lured Bai Weiyang, who couldn¡¯t swim, to jump into the lake to pick up the paper kites. It was also the root cause of Bai Weiyang¡¯s death. The Mistress of the modern Hellgate, Bai, had come back from the dead and transmigrated to the body of its original owner. Bai, who once had leukemia, now had a chance to live again! She naturally had to seize the opportunity. From now on, there would be no weak and idiotic Bai Weiyang in this world! After her rebirth, The Third Bai would kill anyone who was in her way! Those who block me will die! Those who stop me will die! My life is in my hands. My life is up to me and not the heavens! As the saying goes, heroes emerge in troubled times. In this Republic of China, I must make a name for myself! She had to get back at those who had harmed her. Double payback! After all these thoughts ran through her mind, Bai Weiyang¡¯s eyes flashed with coldness! Just as Bai Hongye was nagging non-stop, she happened to see Bai Weiyang open her eyes and stare at her with a sinister gaze like a malicious ghost. She was so frightened that she subconsciously took a step back. ¡°Why are you staring at me like that?! Don¡¯t think that you can fly just because your wings have hardened!¡± Chapter 3 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang rolled her eyes. Seeing how arrogant Bai Hongye was, she wanted to teach Bai Hongye a lesson while she was happy for her rebirth. No sooner said than done, the moment Bai Weiyang got up, she flung her hair that had not been washed for a few days in front of her face, looking terrifying. After all, she was once the Mistress of Hellgate. She was completely familiar with acting. Her tongue pressed against her lower jaw, and her voice became rough. ¡°Little¡­ Hong¡­ Ye¡­ I¡¯m already dead. I just returned from hell! I want to take your life!¡± Barefoot, she supported her body step by step and ran towards Bai Hongye like a zombie. As expected, a rich young lady like Bai Hongye was as timid as a mouse. She immediately threw her handbag at Bai Weiyang in fright as she roared while trembling. ¡°Bai Weiyang, you idiot! Don¡¯t come over! Get lost! Get lost! Go away!¡± Sensing that she was already afraid, Bai Weiyang approached her. Her hand was like a snake as it struck Bai Hongye¡¯s neck. Bai Hongye¡¯s face gradually turned red. ¡°Are you crazy? Are you going to strangle me to death?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not Bai Weiyang. I¡¯m the White Impermanence1 who came back from hell to claim your life!¡± Bai Weiyang used all her strength to strangle Bai Hongye¡¯s neck. Bai Hongye was already on the verge of death as she cried in fear. ¡°Bai Weiyang, let me go! Let me go¡­¡± Sensing Bai Hongye¡¯s fear, Bai Weiyang let go at the right time! Pretending that the malicious spirit had left her body, she froze on the spot for two seconds before tilting her body and falling. Under the messy hair, Bai Weiyang narrowed her eyes into slits. She watched as Bai Hongye lifted her skirt and staggered to sit up. She first touched her neck and muttered to herself before staggering out! ¡°Father, Mother! Bai Weiyang is crazy! She¡¯s possessed by a ghost! Hurry up and ask the Daoist priest to exorcize her!¡± After Bai Hongye left, Bai Weiyang sat up and laughed maniacally. This stupid girl from the Republic of China era was really¡­ overestimating herself to fight with her, the mistress of the modern Hellgate! Bai Weiyang put on her socks and looked at the small English leather shoes on the ground. They were worn by her second sister, Bai Qinglian. She then looked at the backyard of the Bai residence. Bai Weiyang¡¯s room was next to the laundry room on the first floor. Her status was similar to the maids and servants at home. At the thought of this name, Bai Weiyang¡¯s lips curled into a cold smile. Weiyang, Weiyang¡­ Her name literally meant that she had not died young! Weiyang! Her name contained Madam Zhou¡¯s hatred. However, since she had been reborn, she was no longer a softie that could be bullied by others! Why should she marry a military governor who had countless concubines in his family? Why should she? After leaving this family, she could fly as high as the sky and swim as wide as the sea. With her former Hellgate¡¯s Mistress¡¯s ability, she wasn¡¯t afraid that she would not be able to break through her own world. What a joke! Bai Weiyang glanced at the dilapidated house! She flicked a glance at the backyard. It was almost evening, and it was mealtime. The maids and servants had all gone to serve the main family, so it was quiet. She nimbly went to the laundry room next door. The Bai Family operated the three largest restaurants in Jiang City, and their status in Jiang City was quite high. Hence, the clothes piled up in the laundry room were all the luxurious clothes of the ladies! There were all kinds of new dresses, classic Crinoline dresses, and a few classic cheongsams. Bai Weiyang shook her head. If not for the fact that she was in a hurry to leave, she really wanted to try out those two cheongsams! She changed into a maidservant¡¯s green top, pants and white-edged green cloth shoes and quickly tied her hair into two simple braids. Then, she quietly moved towards the back door¡­ Chapter 4 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations The back door of the Bai Residence was usually where maids, servants, or chefs entered and left, so it was not guarded strictly. Bai Weiyang got out easily. As soon as she stepped onto the streets, she was like a little bird that had been released. She looked left and right. In her previous life, Bai Weiyang was busy with Hellgate¡¯s matters and rarely went shopping! Furthermore, now that she had transmigrated to an alternate Republic of China, which was different from the history that she remembered! After Bai Weiyang crossed three streets, she saw that the wide streets were paved with limestone slabs. French sycamores were planted on both sides of the streets, and the flower walls were built in a western style. This was the main road of Jiang City. In the evening, Si Nan Road was like a city that never sleeps. The beautiful English street lamps had already lit up! There were elegant wealthy women in western clothes everywhere. They were either in small cars or in rickshaws. There were also young men and women in long robes, suits, cheongsams, and dresses. They were all dressed in western characteristics that were too dazzling to take in. Jiang City was indeed the largest city after the capital! Bai Weiyang stood by the street. A sly smile appeared on her lips. If she could do it empty-handed, she wouldn¡¯t have to worry about not having money to spend! Look at the rich people on the street¡­ Tsk! One of the nicknames of the former Hellgate¡¯s Mistress was Stealthy Hands. However, her Stealthy Hands skills were a little lost when the cell phones became so popular that they were used to paying with cell phones. Now¡­ Bai Weiyang pretended to be normal as she walked along the crowd. In less than a minute, five money bags appeared in her hand. She quietly walked to the corner and was about to take out the money bags when a few beggars in the alley gave her wolf-like looks. It was as if she was a piece of fat meat. Bai Weiyang¡¯s eyes were like a clear spring. She blinked calmly and smiled warmly. ¡°Anyone who sees it will get a share!¡± She took out five silver yuans1 from her purse and threw them over! The beggars quickly picked up the money on the ground and then stared at Bai Weiyang like wolves. Bai Weiyang wiped her face with a smile. Her expression suddenly became meaningful as she sized up the beggars who were trying to pounce on her. She waved the money bag in her hand. ¡°Could it be that you want to snatch it from me?¡± The beggars looked at one other, hesitating. Then, they watched as the girl with two braids stuffed the silver yuans into her clothes. Their eyes were incomparably hungry. After thinking for half a second, they finally pounced over. Bai Weiyang shook her head helplessly. She would use these people to test her skills! How could these little beggars on the street be her opponents? She slowly lowered her waist before retreating and dodging. With a swift attack and a thunderbolt sweep, the two of them were kicked down! Bai Weiyang was proficient in Eight Trigram Fist, Xingyi Fist, Muay Thai, Aikido, Taekwondo and other combat skills. It was a piece of cake for her to deal with these little beggars. In less than two minutes, the ground was filled with wails. She rubbed her wrist and left the alley leisurely like a victorious little cheetah. The beggars were sprawled in the alley, howling and yelling. Damn it! Who was that young lady? How could she be so skilled! Could she be a fighter or bodyguard of the big families? Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t know that the beggars had given her a new identity. She was already humming a tune as she arrived at the largest western clothing store on Si Nan Road with a huge sum of money! She saw the boss walking over with a smile on his face as soon as she entered. ¡°I¡¯ve never seen you before. You¡¯re new here. Are you ordering a dress for your young mistress?¡± Ordering for her young mistress? The boss had already thought of an excuse for Bai Weiyang before she could come up with one. She went with the flow and said, ¡°Yes, I¡¯m here to buy western clothes for my Miss. Do you have any ready-made ones? I want them immediately!¡± Just as she finished speaking, there was a commotion at the door. The boss sighed. ¡°I heard that Miss Byrd of France was assassinated and they are looking for the murderer now!¡± Bai Weiyang: ?? Chapter 5 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations What did Miss Byrd¡¯s assassination have to do with her? However, Bai Weiyang immediately understood when she heard the sounds of the police searching for someone! This world was not very peaceful. Fortunately, this Nishang Western Clothing Store had a backer and was not investigated. Seeing that the limelight had passed, the boss walked over and said, ¡°Yes, we do have ready-made clothes but I don¡¯t know your young mistress¡¯s figure¡­¡± ¡°My young mistress¡¯s figure is about the same as mine. I¡¯ll try it on her behalf!¡± Bai Weiyang answered with a smile. The boss was obviously very forthright to baller customers. He immediately led Bai Weiyang to the inner courtyard of the shop. There were all kinds of western clothes and gowns hanging in the inner courtyard! Bai Weiyang chose a Bavarian-style crinoline dress decorated with lace on the red satin, and she also put on a small British cloak that was dyed red. ¡°This is our newest product, the treasure of the shop!¡± The boss didn¡¯t want a maidservant to try out the treasure of the shop. However, the boss nodded and took off the clothes from the rack when Bai Weiyang threw out dozens of yuan. Bai Weiyang changed into it. And, the boss was stunned. Why did the girl in front of him exude the aura of a noble and complement this dress perfectly?! The boss could not help but help her tie her hair up and put on a deep red English-style wide-brimmed hat with a feather ornament on it. This outfit made her look hot and beautiful. When Bai Weiyang threw down another 50 silver yuan and floated away from the Nishang Western Clothing Store like a willow catkin, the boss scratched the back of his head in befuddlement. Didn¡¯t she say that she would buy it for her young mistress? Why was she wearing it herself? There was no one outside when the boss chased after her. The boss could only sigh helplessly. Who cared? It wasn¡¯t registered. As long as he got the money! Bai Weiyang had already jumped into a taxi. Her aristocratic dress, especially the huge skirt, made her look like a medieval princess. There were taxis in the Republic of China era (1912-1949), but unfortunately¡­ They were so expensive that ordinary people could not afford them. ¡°To Heavenly Music Club on Ci¡¯an Road.¡± According to the original owner¡¯s memory, the Heavenly Music Club was the largest nightclub in Jiang City. During this period, it was called a dance hall! The Heavenly Music Club was also the largest dance hall in the Far East. It was the largest entertainment venue in Jiang City. Bai Weiyang was a person who did whatever she wanted. That was why she could make Qin Yu accompany her when she died! In her previous life, she didn¡¯t have the chance to let herself go, so she naturally followed her heart in this life. Unfortunately, the police officers were searching the streets one by one when she had just arrived at Ci¡¯an Road. It was getting late! Bai Weiyang¡¯s black Ford stopped as well. They lined up behind the cars for the check. The chauffeur got out of the car and went forward to check the situation. Bai Weiyang nodded and waited alone in the car. The place she was in happened to be at the entrance of an alley. Bai Weiyang¡¯s constant vigilance made her subconsciously look at the entrance of the alley. Immediately, she saw a black shadow fly out of the alley and enter¡­ The moment she was caught off guard. The car door closed. The black Ford jerked. A black shadow enveloped Bai Weiyang. The man reeked of blood! In the darkness, she could not see the man¡¯s appearance clearly. She only felt danger. If not for this complicated dress, she could have easily dodged him with her skills. ¡°Don¡¯t move!¡± His deep and hoarse voice was filled with endless warning. Bai Weiyang was speechless. Chapter 6 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang, who was rarely threatened in her previous life, did not expect to be threatened by a man as soon as she was reborn. Her natural rebelliousness made her smile sinisterly. As if he was afraid that she didn¡¯t know, he waved a gun in front of her eyes. ¡°This is a gun. Don¡¯t make a sound if you don¡¯t want to die!¡± A look of fear appeared on Bai Weiyang¡¯s face cooperatively. When she heard that the man seemed to heave a sigh of relief, she lowered her head and used the dim light from the street lamp outside the window to scan him. She saw that he seemed to gasp weakly every time he pulled his waist every time he moved his body. Her eyelids lifted slightly. Could this man dressed in black and wearing a black mask be the murderer who assassinated Miss Byrd! Tsk. Bai Weiyang glanced at the noisy road ahead. She reminded him coldly. ¡°The chauffeur will be back soon. Do you think you can hide in a crack in the ground?¡± Her slightly mocking tone stunned the man for a second. He also looked out of the window and cursed softly. The gun in his hand was still pointed at her. He was looking for a hiding place. Bai Weiyang was wearing a bloated and wide skirt that occupied the entire backseat¡­ After the chauffeur returned, he said, ¡°Miss, the police is still looking for the murderer. I heard that he appeared on Ci¡¯an Road!¡± Bai Weiyang wanted to open her mouth and say that someone had hidden under her skirt, but there was something pressing against the top of her thigh. With her vigilance against danger, that cylindrical thing¡­ should be a gun muzzle! If she dared to say anything about the murderer, what awaited her was¡­ a bullet being fed into a certain part her. After a while, Bai Weiyang could only squeeze out a word. ¡°Mm!¡± ¡°Alright, Miss. Don¡¯t be anxious. We¡¯ll reach Heavenly Music Club soon after the police check.¡± ¡°Mm.¡± Bai Weiyang was carrying a pearl handbag. Her expression was sinister under her pomegranate-red wide-brimmed hat. Damn it. She¡¯d just said if he could hide in a crack in the ground, and he¡¯d gotten under her skirt? How f*cking shameless. Soon, the police arrived. After opening the car door, they looked into the car with two kerosene lamps. Perhaps they saw a young girl dressed in luxurious clothes and were afraid of offending some rich young lady, so they hurriedly apologized. ¡°I¡¯m sorry to disturb you, Miss!¡± They closed the car door carefully without investigating carefully! The car continued to drive towards the Heavenly Music Club, but the muzzle of the gun didn¡¯t move away from her vital parts. Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t even dare to breathe loudly. However, as she flipped her fingers, a few sewing needles had already fallen from her sleeves. They were specially taken from the laundry room in case of any special danger. After the car drove for dozens of steps, the man in black got up from under her skirt, scaring the chauffeur so much that he almost crashed the car into a pillar. ¡°Stop the car!¡± The black muzzle reached out from behind to the driver¡¯s seat. The chauffeur stopped the car by the roadside in fear. The man in black got out of the car and left. He even closed the car door. The chauffeur looked at Bai Weiyang awkwardly. ¡°Miss, that was¡­¡± ¡°An adulterer!¡± Bai Weiyang said with a faint smile. The chauffeur gulped and said nothing. The current situation was unstable. Smart people knew what to ask and what not to ask. Bai Weiyang kept the sewing needles in her left hand neatly into her sleeve. She opened her right hand, and a gun and jade pendant appeared in her palm! When the man stood up, Bai Weiyang, who had quick reflexes, sensed that there was a gun hidden at his lower back! She immediately took action. She revealed a smug smile when she arrived at the Heavenly Music Club. She had just arrived and someone was already looking for trouble. Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to taking the initiative to give her equipment?! She wondered how much this jade pendant was worth¡­ Chapter 7 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations After Bai Weiyang got out of the car, she saw a familiar face. It was Bai Qinglian, the generous and gentle second sister in the original owner¡¯s memory. Bai Qinglian had just returned from overseas! She even permed her hair beautifully and wavy. She followed a young master into the Heavenly Music Club! The Heavenly Music Club wasn¡¯t just a place for men to spend money. There were a total of four floors. The first floor was the kitchen and the facade. The second floor was the dance floor and the banquet hall. The largest dance floor was about 600 square meters. The big dance floor was also casually cut up into smaller dance floors. It could be used for people to learn how to dance and also for rendezvous. The two floors of the dance hall were all activated. It could accommodate 1,000 people to dance at the same time. The room was also equipped with the latest cold and warm air conditioning. The furnishings were luxurious. The third floor was the casino, and the fourth floor was the private room! This was one of the landmarks of nightlife in Jiang City. In theory, all those who entered the Heavenly Music Club were male guests. A small number of female guests entered as dance partners with men. When Bai Weiyang saw Bai Qinglian enter, she hesitated for a moment. She wasn¡¯t 100% sure that she wouldn¡¯t be recognized! After all, once Bai Qinglian recognized her, her engagement with the Feng family would¡­ In short, things would become very troublesome again. Wait a sec. A light bulb suddenly flashed in her mind. As long as she broke off the engagement with the Feng Family, she would be able to cut ties with the Bai family. At that time, she could do whatever she wanted in Jiang City openly. Looking at the glorious Heavenly Music Club, Bai Weiyang resisted the urge to enter. She decided to make a trip to the Feng Residence in the south of the city first! This was the residence of Chief Commander Feng and Madam Wu Su. Chief Commander Feng had no longer interfered with matters in the past few years. Basically, the power of the Feng Family fell on Second Young Master Feng Songjie. Bai Weiyang wanted to break off the engagement, so it wasn¡¯t appropriate for her to wear this gorgeous dress. She went to the nearest clothing store and bought a slim-fit cheongsam! She stored the red crinoline dress first. Looking at the time, it was nine in the evening. The people from Feng Residence were probably still awake. Bai Weiyang complimented the cheongsam and took a rickshaw to the south of the city. Bai Weiyang was stunned when she stood in front of the white French building. It looked much more luxurious and beautiful than the Bai Residence. There were four soldiers guarding the black carved iron gates. ¡°Chief Commander Feng¡¯s house is not to be trespassed!¡± The soldier carrying the rifle immediately shouted in a dignified manner when Bai Weiyang tried to step forward. Bai Weiyang bowed calmly and said calmly, ¡°May I ask if Madam has rested?¡± Without waiting for the soldiers to answer, she said indifferently, ¡°If she hasn¡¯t, please inform her that Bai Weiyang from the Bai Residence requests an audience! She has come¡ª¡± She paused and smiled. ¡°To break off the engagement!¡± The words ¡® break off the engagement¡¯ indeed surprised the soldiers for a second before they muttered, ¡°Bai¡­ Residence¡­¡± Everyone in Jiang City knew that Chief Commander Feng¡¯s precious second young master was engaged to an idiot. This engagement had become the laughing stock of everyone in Jiang City. Chief Commander Feng was a stubborn person. It was precisely because he was mocked by the entire city that he would not cancel the engagement just because there was something wrong with the other party¡¯s head. The second young master of the Feng Family was so angry that he married a few concubines just to annoy his father. A soldier went to report and Bai Weiyang waited at the door. As the other three soldiers stood guard, their eyes quickly glanced at the beautiful girl in the cheongsam. This¡­ shouldn¡¯t be Bai Weiyang, right! Chapter 8 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations In less than five minutes, the soldier returned and bowed ninety degrees. He said respectfully, ¡°Please come in.¡± After Bai Weiyang walked in, she immediately saw the luxurious and old-fashioned German chandelier, exquisite vases from the Ming Dynasty, and white maple furniture. On the right-hand side of the door was an old-looking wine cabinet with all kinds of red wine. It was obvious that the owner was very westernized. The dining room also had a Western-style dining table! Was the ¡°maid¡± dressed in a maid¡¯s uniform with a Chinese bun, a Chinese maidservant or a western maid? Bai Weiyang could tell from the maidservant¡¯s attire that the mistress of the house wanted to pursue western characteristics. Unfortunately, it only made her look ridiculous. As she sized up the house indifferently, she also felt that someone was observing her. Bai Weiyang remained calm. The maidservant asked her to sit down and wait for Madam. Bai Weiyang said that there was no need and left after saying a few words. Chief Commander Feng¡¯s wife, Wu Su, had become very fashionable after coming into contact with foreigners in the past few years. She heard from the servants that Bai Weiyang from the Bai Residence wanted to see her and break off the engagement. A pleasantly surprised expression appeared on her face. After waiting for so many years, she had finally waited for that idiot to personally break off the engagement. It was not too bad. However, before she could go down the stairs, she saw the girl standing in the living room. She was dressed in a green bamboo satin cheongsam. Her long hair was tied into a long braid at the side of her shoulders, and she was wearing a pair of English high-heeled leather shoes. She stood tall and straight, exuding a cold and arrogant aura just by standing there, making her look simple and elegant. Was this the retarded and mentally unstable Third Bai? While sizing up the house, Bai Weiyang¡¯s peripheral vision caught a glimpse of Wu Su¡¯s figure at the spiral staircase. In her impression, the Bai Family had come to the Feng Family¡¯s banquet a few times, so Bai Weiyang had Wu Su¡¯s image in her mind! Bai Weiyang¡¯s demeanor was neither servile nor overbearing. She nodded at Wu Su calmly. Wu Su was shocked. Since when did that idiot look so gracious? After Wu Su went downstairs, Bai Weiyang nodded again. ¡°I¡¯m really sorry to disturb you so late at night! Bai Weiyang greets you, Madam!¡± ¡°You¡¯re Bai Weiyang?¡± Wu Su could not help but look surprised. Bai Weiyang was still smiling. ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Wu Su¡¯s heart was filled with surprise, but she said calmly, ¡°Sit down and talk.¡± Wu Su was still silently observing when Bai Weiyang sat down. She saw the girl in the cheongsam sit down sweetly. A maidservant in a short top, a skirt and her hair in a bun came over with a teacup and snack shelf with French patterns. Tea and pastries. Wu Su saw Bai Weiyang, who was an idiot in her impression, pretend to be gracious, so she was slightly angry. She pointed at the teacup with a superior expression. ¡°This is Sri Lanka Ceylon¡¯s black tea! You¡¯ve never drunk it before, right?¡± ¡®Never drunk it before?¡¯ What a joke. Bai Weiyang rolled her eyes in her heart. She had tasted all kinds of delicacies and special tea leaves. Only these people who lived in the old era were like hillbillies. They even wanted to laugh at others for being country bumpkins. ¡°Thank you for your hospitality, Madam!¡± She picked up the teacup with interest and took a sip of the black tea elegantly. ¡°The fragrance is pure and the taste is rich. The color is red and bright, and the bottom of the leaves is slightly dark. It¡¯s not bad!¡± What did she mean by not bad? Wu Su couldn¡¯t believe her ears. Was that what Bai Weiyang had said? She was like a completely different person. Chapter 9 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t intend to demur. ¡°Let¡¯s get down to business. I¡¯m here to cancel the engagement with the Military Governor!¡± ¡°You want to break off the engagement?¡± The French teacup in Wu Su¡¯s hand was almost knocked over! She glared at Bai Weiyang! ¡°Mm.¡± Bai Weiyang shrugged nonchalantly and explained her intentions, ¡°It means to break off the engagement.¡± ¡°¡ª!!¡± Even if they were going to break off the engagement, it should be their Feng Family making the request! What right did this girl have to talk about breaking off the engagement so arrogantly, as if she didn¡¯t care about their Feng Family? This made Wu Su¡¯s expression turn especially ugly. If she agreed now, it would be as if the Feng Family was rejected by Bai Weiyang. It would be too embarrassing for them. Chief Commander Feng cared about his reputation the most. Wu Su choked. ¡°You¡¯ve always been abnormal. I¡¯ll pretend you didn¡¯t say that today. Go back.¡± Bai Weiyang could tell at a glance that Wu Su really wanted to agree to the annulment of the engagement. However, due to her pride, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask her to get lost. Bai Weiyang smiled playfully. ¡°Madam, you¡¯re Chief Commander Feng¡¯s wife. Can¡¯t you tell if my brain is normal or not?¡± Wu Su¡¯s expression froze. Bai Weiyang calmly placed a sugar cube into her teacup. ¡°A straightforward person doesn¡¯t resort to insinuations! I know that the Feng Family doesn¡¯t want a notorious young mistress either! This will ruin Young Marshal Feng¡¯s reputation and the Feng Family¡¯s reputation!¡± ¡°¡­¡± This was what she wanted to say. Last month, on the train in Jin City, the news of Bai Weiyang¡¯s loss of her innocence had already spread like wildfire. If the Feng Family really married her, that would be embarrassing! It was fine if she was an idiot, but if word got out¡­ her precious son¡¯s reputation would be completely ruined! Chief Commander Feng¡¯s family would become the biggest joke in the entire upper-class circle of Jiang City. ¡°Am I wrong?¡± Bai Weiyang blinked at Wu Su casually. Of course, everything she said was right. But it was strange because what she said was right. This wasn¡¯t something Bai Weiyang could say! If she nodded now, it would make the Feng Family seem very petty! Wu Su pursed her lips. ¡°You¡¯re not stupid now?¡± ¡°The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise.¡± Bai Weiyang casually stirred the sugar cubes with a small spoon to accelerate their dissolving. Wu Su panicked when she saw that skillful action. She said calmly, ¡°If you¡¯re not retarded anymore, there¡¯s no reason for you to cancel the engagement. Otherwise, others will say that our Feng Family didn¡¯t abide by the agreement!¡± Bai Weiyang frowned. ¡°Madam, I don¡¯t have any feelings for the Military Governor, and I don¡¯t intend to marry him. Is that clear enough?¡± Wu Su had a nagging feeling. ¡°Are you despising my Songjie?¡± Bai Weiyang did indeed despise him. Instead, she said with a smile, ¡°Madam, you¡¯ve misunderstood. I just think that the position of the second young mistress of the Feng Family should be reserved for the person Feng Songjie likes. If someone like me takes it, Second Young Master Feng will hate you.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Her words made sense. This made Wu Su grip her teacup tightly. All these years, the reason why Second Feng didn¡¯t get along with his family was because of the engagement. Second Young Master Feng hated her. He hated Chief Commander Feng. He hated that they had prepared a retarded young mistress for him. Who was Bai Weiyang? She, who had once studied psychology, could see through Wu Su¡¯s thoughts at a glance. ¡°People¡¯s wisdom has already been developed. Free love is popular now, that¡¯s why he married so many concubines. You should see clearly that he hates being restrained. If you agree to my annulment today, Second Young Master will definitely be grateful to you.¡± Indeed. Wu Su thought to herself that once the engagement was called off, that child would definitely¡­ Chapter 10 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations ¡°All these years, wasn¡¯t his bad relationship with the Feng Family because of this engagement? Since that¡¯s the case, why should the Feng Family cling to the agreement! If you make the right decision, Second Young Master will definitely come home often in the future to keep Madam company.¡± Bai Weiyang finished speaking with a smile. Wu Su could not help but praise, ¡°You child¡­ you¡¯ve hit the nail on the head!¡± In that case, you should have decided to break off the engagement with me! Bai Weiyang was able to act so casually today because even if she was smart now, she was still no longer innocent. Therefore, Wu Su would not agree to let her marry into the Feng family. Bai Weiyang had just picked up her teacup when she saw Wu Su¡¯s harmonious expression. Wu Su held Bai Weiyang¡¯s hand and said earnestly, ¡°I¡¯ve never seen a young lady who dares to challenge me like this. You¡¯re the first! None of the concubines Second Feng brought back dare to talk to me like this. Your words are powerful and upright! Although I don¡¯t know why you¡¯re not stupid anymore, it¡¯s a good thing! You can marry Second Feng just like that¡­¡± Huh? What kind of development was this? Bai Weiyang was completely surprised. Shouldn¡¯t Wu Su be angry at her arrogance? Moreover, after saying so much ¡°truth¡±, Wu Su should be very angry. ¡°Girl, every word you say makes sense. I can¡¯t even get angry. Besides, you don¡¯t know that Second Feng is especially willful. I don¡¯t like any of the concubines he likes! All of them are like evil seductresses. What¡¯s so good about them? They only know how to seduce men! There¡¯s something wrong with his taste in women.¡± Wu Su held Bai Weiyang¡¯s hand and started to badmouth Feng Songjie. ¡°Girl, your personality is quite similar to mine when I was young. After you¡¯re clear-headed, your words are neither servile nor overbearing. You have to be like this! Do you know that I¡¯m the only woman in Chief Commander Feng¡¯s life all these years? How do you think I subdued the commander? If not for this aura, I¡¯m afraid there would have been a few more concubines in the commander¡¯s residence!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t know how to respond to her. Wu Su smiled, revealing her white teeth. ¡°I¡¯ll pretend that you didn¡¯t say anything today. Rest well when you go back. You¡¯re getting married in a few days. Don¡¯t be rash! If you marry Second Feng with this personality of yours, that little bastard will definitely not escape your grasp.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Bai Weiyang. When did I agree to marry him? ¡°Does the Bai Family know that you¡¯re so smart now?¡± ¡°They don¡¯t know.¡± ¡°That¡¯s good. Don¡¯t tell them that. The Bai Residence is a pack of hungry wolves. Continue to pretend to be retarded these few days. You¡¯ll have nothing to do with them after you marry into the Feng Family! You can do whatever you want in the Feng Family. You have me, your mother-in-law, to back you up! Although Second Feng doesn¡¯t get along with the Feng Family, he still respects me as his mother, so he doesn¡¯t dare to cancel the engagement without permission. You know that, right? So, just relax and be a bride now.¡± ¡­ Bai Weiyang sat in the sedan car arranged by Wu Su. On the way back to the Bai Residence, she was completely dumbfounded. What did she do wrong? Could it be that it was better to pretend to be stupid and break off the engagement? But if that was the case, Wu Su wouldn¡¯t break off the engagement either. Wu Su would only think that she was crazy. Otherwise, it wouldn¡¯t have been up to her to personally break off the engagement after so many years. The Feng Family would have already broken off the engagement because they were embarrassed. Then what was Madam trying to do exactly? In the end, she concluded that the commander-in-chief¡¯s family was really a classic example of someone who rather suffered because they wanted to save face. Forget it. Chapter 11 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations The Feng Residence did not care about their reputation. Even if Feng Songjie married her, he would only treat her as a decoration¡­ At the Feng Residence. Er Mo was Wu Su¡¯s personal maidservant. She had been by Wu Su¡¯s side since the Empress Dowager Cixi¡¯s era. She had been with Wu Su for 30 years. This year, Wu Su was 37 years old. When she came in from the backyard, she saw her Madam smiling so widely that the corners of her mouth could not close. ¡°Madam, is there anything happy?¡± ¡°Er Mo, my future daughter-in-law is so adorable! She dares challenge me and say that she doesn¡¯t want to marry Second Feng.¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± ¡°She looks down on Second Feng, haha!¡± ¡°Why is she looking down on Second Young Master making Madam so happy?¡± Er Mo couldn¡¯t understand what her Madam was thinking. ¡°Of course I¡¯m happy. Only someone with such a personality can control that brat. She¡¯s like me! The Young Marshal doesn¡¯t need a bunch of vixens who only know how to flatter him!¡± Wu Su¡¯s eyes revealed a shrewd glint. The Feng Family¡¯s reason for not breaking off the engagement in the past was not just a matter of pride. An idiot like Bai Weiyang marrying into the Feng Family wouldn¡¯t hinder the Feng Family in any way. Having an idiot in the family was nothing more than adding another pair of chopsticks. An incompetent woman would only cause trouble. Her second son, Feng Songjie, was the most talented in the military among the three sons of the Feng Family. The eldest son, Feng Zongcheng, had stayed in Britain for a while. After returning to the country, he wanted to do business. The third son, Feng Mochen, had studied in France and was influenced by Western culture. He liked Keats, Shakespeare and Byron. He wanted to be a poet after returning to the country! Only the second son, Feng Songjie, who had studied in Prussia for five years, inherited his father¡¯s talents after he returned. He was currently the spokesperson for the warlords in Pingnan. Wu Su knew that the concubines in the Young Marshal¡¯s residence were just women that Second Feng had found to anger them. Those women were nothing to worry about. The wife of the Pingnan¡¯s warlords¡¯ Young Marshal being an idiot wouldn¡¯t cause trouble. However, if a woman with a little brain and yet liked to direct matters became Second Young Mistress, trouble would follow. Now, Bai Weiyang was not only smart, but also tactful and graceful! She was completely qualified to be Second Young Mistress Feng and the wife of the future Pingnan¡¯s warlords¡¯ Young Marshal! On the other hand, when the man in black successfully returned to a courtyard in an alley, a man and a woman came up to him. A sergeant in a greenish-gray military uniform came up to support the man. ¡°Sir, you¡¯re back.¡± At dusk, it was Feng Songjie himself who had assassinated Miss Byrd. Feng Songjie, who was pressing on the wound on his lower back, suddenly touched his back and said instinctively, ¡°Sucks.¡± Adjutant Li asked nervously, ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Sir?¡± Feng Songjie frowned. ¡°I lost the other gun on my back.¡± He was trying very hard to figure out where he had lost it. ¡°¡­¡± Adjutant Li¡¯s expression changed drastically. Adjutant Yang was very calm. He stood at the side and did not say a word. Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes were obscure like the deep sea. ¡°That gun is the gun that killed Miss Byrd.¡± Yang Minghua (male) and Li Mengyun (female) were Feng Songjie¡¯s two adjutants. Adjutant Yang quickly said, ¡°I¡¯ll send someone to look for it immediately.¡± As soon as Feng Songjie sat down, he suddenly remembered what he had experienced. The gun was still there when he got into the car. Now, his hand instinctively touched another part and he realized that the jade pendant was gone too. Young Marshal Feng¡¯s face darkened immediately. He raised his hand. ¡°It¡¯s fine. I know who took it.¡± Damn it. It must be that girl! This was the first time in his life that he had been schemed against by a little girl. However, what a powerful method. Even he did not notice when she took it. Which family¡¯s daughter was she? How dare she steal from him? She was really seeking death! Chapter 12 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations The guard immediately reported to Madam Bai Zhou1 when the Feng Residence¡¯s car arrived at the door. As Madam Bai Zhou walked towards the door, she wondered. ¡°Why is it the Feng Residence¡¯s car at the door?¡± ¡°Did the Feng Residence send someone to cancel the engagement?¡± Bai Qinglian was delighted. Madam Bai Zhou was also overjoyed. She immediately instructed Bai Qinglian, ¡°Qinglian, if the commander¡¯s wife wants to cancel the engagement between the Military Governor and that little idiot, you¡¯ll have a chance to marry the Military Governor!¡± The joy in Bai Qinglian¡¯s heart increased, but she remained calm and suppressed her joy. ¡°Mother! Let¡¯s take a look first.¡± When they walked out of the black iron gate, they immediately saw a young girl in a green bamboo satin cheongsam with braids walking out of the car with an elegant and simple expression. For a moment, no one recognized her. It was only when the young girl looked up that Madam Bai Zhou and Bai Qinglian were surprised. She¡­ looked a little familiar! A silly smile bloomed on the girl¡¯s face. Madam Bai Zhou cursed softly. ¡°Where have you been? I thought you were dead.¡± Recalling Wu Su¡¯s reminder, Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t want to bother with the Bai Family for the time being. She had always been familiar with acting, so she widened the silly smile on her face. ¡°Hehehe.¡± Madam Bai Zhou was furious. ¡°What are you laughing at!¡± Bai Qinglian looked at the driver gracefully. ¡°Master Liu, why did my third sister come back in the Feng Family¡¯s car?¡± ¡°Second Miss, Third Miss went to ask Madam to cancel the engagement, but Madam rejected her, so I sent Third Miss back.¡± What Master Liu said was the truth, and it was also Wu Su who asked him to say that. However, Madam Bai Zhou and Bai Qinglian gasped when they heard this. ¡°Sshh!¡± Then, they watched Master Liu leave Bai Residence. Madam Bai Zhou retracted her gaze and glanced at the grinning Bai Weiyang. ¡°How is that possible? How did this stupid girl run to Feng Residence?¡± She even asked to break off the engagement? Did they hear it correctly? ¡°Hehe¡­¡± Bai Weiyang took in their expressions and looked at Madam Bai Zhou adorably. She pouted her red lips and tilted her head innocently. ¡°Mother, I¡¯m sleepy~¡± ¡°If you¡¯re tired, go to sleep,¡± Madam Bai Zhou said amiably, pretending to be a loving mother. Until Bai Weiyang jumped into the house like a little dummy. Bai Qinglian¡¯s hand that was holding the silk handkerchief trembled slightly. ¡°Mother, do you think Madam Feng is crazy? This crazy girl ran to the Feng Family to ask for an annulment, but Madam actually didn¡¯t agree. What do you think she¡¯s up to?!¡± Shouldn¡¯t they be the one to break off the engagement with this fool? A vicious glint flashed across Madam Bai Zhou¡¯s eyes. ¡°Everyone knows that Marshal Feng kept his promise. Wu Su isn¡¯t someone to be trifled with either. However, under such circumstances, she still insists on marrying that idiot Bai Weiyang. It seems like she doesn¡¯t care about the Feng Family losing face at all!¡± It was all for the sake of saving face! She thought that Wu Su was a sensible person, but in the end, she was just an old-fashioned person. The Qing Dynasty was already dead! Cixi¡¯s government was long gone. She was still arranging marriages for her children. What a stupid woman. Bai Qinglian agreed with her mother. ¡°Isn¡¯t that so? Do I still have hope then?¡± Madam Bai Zhou tried her best to comfort her second daughter. ¡°It¡¯s fine. As long as you perform better at Marshal Feng¡¯s coming birthday banquet, Second Master Feng really has no reason to choose a fool. My Qinglian is so beautiful! Anyone with brains will choose you. Don¡¯t worry!¡± Chapter 13 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Don¡¯t worry? How could she not worry? Bai Qinglian was still worried. After her mother entered the house, she pondered for a moment and went to tell the bedridden Bai Hongye that the fool had returned! Bai Hongye was bullied in the afternoon. She asked Madam Bai Zhou to invite the Daoist priest over. In the end, they couldn¡¯t find Bai Weiyang, so they could only let the Daoist priest go back resentfully. This time, Bai Hongye brought a maidservant to the laundry room where Bai Weiyang lived. Bai Weiyang had just entered the room and hadn¡¯t gone to bed yet. However, when she heard footsteps outside the door, she quickly crawled into bed. When the door opened, she narrowed her eyes and saw Bai Hongye, who was dressed coquettishly. Bai Hongye brought someone over and felt confident. She turned on the electric light and saw that the light¡¯s rope had turned greasy and black. Her face was filled with disdain as she subconsciously wiped her hands with a silk handkerchief. Bai Hongye glanced at Bai Weiyang, who was lying in bed. ¡°Fool¡­¡± She wanted to call her a fool, but at the critical moment, she changed her words. ¡°Third Sister!¡± She called her Third Sister melodiously. ¡°Are you asleep?¡± Bai Weiyang pretended to be a pitiful little white rabbit and carefully peeked out from under the blanket. ¡°Yo, you¡¯re hiding under the blanket like a pitiful worm!¡± When Bai Hongye saw Bai Weiyang like this, she giggled. ¡°You¡¯ve really grown up. I heard that you went to the Feng Residence to break off the engagement. Who gave you the courage to do that? The previous emperor?¡± Bai Weiyang smiled foolishly. ¡°It¡¯s probably Liang Jingru1.¡± ¡°Who¡¯s Liang Jingru?¡± Bai Hongye was puzzled for a second. Bai Weiyang couldn¡¯t be bothered to explain Liang Jingru to Bai Hongye. She tilted her head and looked at Bai Hongye in a daze with a smile on her face. ¡°Fourth Sister, don¡¯t you want to know who I saw at Feng Residence?¡± Although she wasn¡¯t curious about what this fool had done, that was the Feng Residence. She had only been there a few times. Bai Hongye frowned. ¡°Who did you see?¡± Bai Weiyang wrinkled her nose and blinked her clear eyes. ¡°I saw the famous Young Marshal Feng!¡± ¡°What? You saw Brother Songjie?¡± Bai Hongye¡¯s heart was so excited that it was about to jump out of her throat. She subconsciously said, ¡°How is he? He must still be very handsome.¡± Without waiting for an answer, she continued on. She even blushed suspiciously. It was as if she was shy. Or embarrassed. It was an eye-opener for Bai Weiyang. Just the mention of Feng Songjie made Bai Hongye infatuated. It seemed that Bai Hongye and Bai Qinglian liked the Military Governor in her memory. She made up her mind. A plan popped up in her mind. She said calmly, ¡°I was talking to Madam about breaking off the engagement, but Brother Songjie beat her to it. He said he can choose not to marry me and replace me with Bai Hongye.¡± ¡°What did you say?¡± Bai Hongye almost slipped in surprise. Fortunately, the maidservant behind her, Ju Xiang, supported her. Bai Hongye¡¯s face turned red as she covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief and exclaimed, ¡°Brother Songjie said he wants to marry me?¡± Bai Weiyang looked at Bai Hongye¡¯s excitement and shyness thoughtfully. Bai Hongye didn¡¯t notice the deep meaning in her eyes at all. She only cared about covering her face and revealing her childishness. She stomped her feet nervously and muttered to herself. ¡°Aiyo, Second Master likes me, but he didn¡¯t make it clear earlier. That way, I would have asked my parents to take the initiative to talk to the Feng Family. Now, Second Master even has to speak up personally. Second Master must have been scolded by Madam.¡± Bai Weiyang¡¯s lips twitched as she marveled at Bai Hongye¡¯s imagination. Chapter 14 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang pouted and added fuel to the fire. ¡°That¡¯s right! Madam was very angry and said that she liked the second daughter of the Bai Family more¡­¡± The second daughter of the Bai Family was naturally Bai Qinglian. Bai Hongye¡¯s face fell. She bit her lower lip and said indignantly, ¡°As expected, Madam has always liked Second Sister. Second Sister is so gentle and generous. She¡¯s a famous socialite in Jiang City. Together with Shen Wanjing of the Shen family, she¡¯s listed as the ¡®two beauties of Jiang City¡¯! I don¡¯t have a chance¡­¡± Bai Weiyang immediately raised her voice and said, ¡°But Brother Songjie likes Hongye~¡± Her eyes lit up as she looked at Bai Hongye. Bai Hongye enjoyed this gaze tremendously. ¡°Brother Songjie has good taste. I¡¯m much younger than Second Sister. Look at my skin. There aren¡¯t any pores at all!¡± As she spoke, she touched her cheek narcissistically. ¡°¡­¡± Bai Weiyang was speechless. Bai Hongye¡¯s face was filled with joy as she clapped her hands. At the age of thirteen, she was as happy as a sparrow! ¡°I¡¯ll tell Mother later and get her to tell Madam Feng that Brother Songjie likes me. Only I, Bai Hongye, can marry Brother Songjie!¡± As she walked out with her maidservant, Ju Xiang, she laughed like a cat. ¡°Oh, hehe!¡± Bai Weiyang watched Bai Hongye leave and shook her head. She believed my nonsense so easily. Her intelligence was worrying! Bai Weiyang knew that in the Bai Family, the second daughter, Bai Qinglian, was the most favored! It was also Bai Qinglian who urged Bai Hongye to say some sarcastic words when the body¡¯s orginal owner fell into the water! She deliberately induced the orginal owner to fall into the water. It wasn¡¯t Bai Weiyang seeking death at all. How would a fool know about chastity? How could she seek death! As soon as Bai Hongye returned to the reception pavilion, Bai Qinglian walked over leisurely from the sofa with a cup of English black tea. She pretended to ask casually, ¡°Fourth Sister, what that fool said? Hurry up and tell Second Sister.¡± Bai Hongye found out from Bai Weiyang that Feng Songjie liked her, but Madam liked Second Sister. Hence, Bai Hongye secretly wanted to compete with her, so she held back and said impolitely, ¡°What does Second Sister want to hear?¡± Bai Qinglian did not notice it and asked, ¡°How did she tell Madam to cancel the engagement?¡± ¡°Well, if Second Sister wants to know, you can ask that fool yourself!¡± Bai Hongye raised her eyebrows and left with a smug expression. She even said proudly as she walked. ¡°Hmph, I¡¯m going to find Mother.¡± Bai Hongye¡¯s arrogant appearance made Bai Qinglian anxious. What did the fool say to her and what did she want to say to Mother? Half an hour later, Bai Hongye came downstairs smugly. Bai Qinglian then went to look for Madam Bai Zhou in exasperation. ¡°Mother, what did Hongye say to you just now?¡± Madam Bai Zhou sat in the room and slowly drank her ginseng tea. She chuckled and said, ¡°She asked me to speak to the Feng Family and ask Feng Songjie to marry her.¡± Bai Qinglian was shocked for a second and asked anxiously, ¡°Then how did you answer her, Mother?¡± Madam Bai Zhou patted Bai Qinglian¡¯s shoulder with a disagreeing expression. ¡°The Commander¡¯s wife likes you so much. My Qinglian is a socialite who is on par with Shen Wanjing in Jiang City. Hongye can¡¯t compare to you. If she wants to marry into the Feng Family and doesn¡¯t get the favor of the Madam, she won¡¯t be able to survive in the Feng Family. Moreover, how can she handle the Military Governor¡¯s concubines with her brain?¡± Chapter 15 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Qinglian and Madam Bai Zhou smiled similarly. Madam Bai Zhou looked at her increasingly charming second daughter. She had bet all her chips on Qinglian. Since Madam Feng liked Qinglian so much, it was only a matter of time before Qinglian married Young Marshal Feng. Seeing Bai Qinglian leave with a smile, Madam Bai Zhou recalled what Bai Hongye had said when she came over just now. She actually said that Feng Songjie liked her! It was really funny. How could the second young master of the Feng Family like an impulsive and brainless person like Hongye? At this moment. At the Feng Residence. Feng Songjie had already returned to the Feng Residence after treating his injuries. He was sitting at the western dining table, drinking Cuban coffee slowly and looking at the beautiful woman in a red cheongsam opposite him. ¡°Are you trying to anger me to death! You¡¯re already getting married in a week, and yet you¡¯re still saying that you don¡¯t want to marry Bai Weiyang!¡± Wu Su was so angry that her entire body was trembling. ¡°I¡¯ve never thought of marrying her. You¡¯re the ones who¡¯ve been forcing me to marry her.¡± Feng Songjie appeared extremely calm. He looked up and said, ¡°Does Mother think that a fool has the ability to be the Young Marshal¡¯s wife?¡± Wu Su said firmly, ¡°Chief Commander Feng has always kept his promise.¡± ¡°We can change it to another girl from the Bai Family.¡± Feng Songjie was furious at the thought of that fool Bai Weiyang becoming the Military Governor¡¯s wife! If he had to choose, he liked the little vixen who had stolen his gun and jade pendant silently today. Wu Su asked, ¡°For example?¡± Feng Songjie said casually, ¡°The Bai Family¡¯s Fourth Miss, Bai Hongye.¡± Wu Su was so angry that her chest rose and fell. ¡°Bai Hongye is innocent and brainless. She can¡¯t be the Young Marshal¡¯s wife! I like Bai Qinglian more. She and Shen Wanjing are both socialites of Jiang City. Bai Hongye really won¡¯t do. If you want to change, change it to Bai Qinglian! I can discuss it with your father!¡± ¡°But I like Bai Hongye.¡± Feng Songjie knew that his mother liked Bai Qinglian, so he deliberately said Bai Hongye¡¯s name to anger his mother. Wu Su¡¯s eyes were about to pop out. ¡°Bai Hongye can¡¯t do it!¡± ¡°Then there¡¯s nothing else to say.¡± Feng Songjie stood up and pretended to leave the Feng Residence. Wu Su shouted at Second Feng¡¯s back. ¡°The wedding will continue as usual!¡± Feng Songjie said coldly, ¡°Stupid woman!¡± ¡°You, you, you, Second Feng, you are rebelling.¡± Wu Su was furious. Of the three sons in the family, only this damned Second Feng was completely disobedient. He didn¡¯t listen to anyone, but he was the one with the most military talent. It was a headache. Feng Songjie turned his head. ¡°You often say that people have developed wisdom, but you still use feudal thinking to arrange a marriage for me! Mother, you¡¯ll regret it.¡± A strange light flashed in his eyes. ¡°You¡¯ll be the one regretting it, Second Feng!¡± Wu Su glared at Feng Songjie and left. If Bai Weiyang knew that the nonsense that she made up became true, she would probably be slack-jawed. Wu Su was so angry that her hands trembled. She sat down at the dining table and pounded the table. Second Feng didn¡¯t know anything about politics. Now that the warlords were divided, the government in the north was in chaos! He even got a bunch of concubines for himself. If there were spies, the consequences would be unimaginable. Er Mo came over and handed her a cup of Darjeeling black tea. ¡°Madam, don¡¯t be angry. Second Young Master just doesn¡¯t understand your good intentions.¡± Wu Su¡¯s heart ached and her eyes were red. ¡°What does he like about Bai Hongye? Does he think I don¡¯t know his personality? A little girl like Bai Hongye can¡¯t escape his grasp at all. Later on, she¡¯ll be like those concubines in the Young Marshal¡¯s residence, living like a widow in the big house!¡± He simply felt that with his status, it would be embarrassing to marry a fool. Chapter 16 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations But he didn¡¯t think that only ¡°idiots¡± wouldn¡¯t get in the way. Suddenly, Wu Su recalled the look in Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes when he left. Her hands trembled slightly as she instructed, ¡°Er Mo, go to the Bai Residence tomorrow morning.¡± ¡°Madam?¡± Er Mo was surprised. ¡°Don¡¯t let anything happen to Bai Weiyang. I heard that she jumped into the lake previously. How could a fool have the intention to commit suicide by jumping into the lake? Someone must have instigated it. Second Feng hates Bai Weiyang so much. I suspect that he will kill her before the wedding.¡± If Bai Weiyang died, he could marry that brainless idiot Bai Hongye. Er Mo could see what Madam was thinking and said cautiously, ¡°Alright, I will be there early tomorrow morning.¡± Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t know what had happened at Feng Residence. It was night and she was sleeping soundly. Unfortunately¡­ Bai Weiyang only realized a very serious problem after she woke up early in the morning and washed up in the courtyard. Bai Qinglian and Bai Hongye both had maidservants, but she didn¡¯t. How was she going to resolve the matter of breakfast? In her memory, there seemed to be someone delivering food in the morning. Bai Weiyang returned to her room to sleep. She caressed her starving stomach and waited for half an hour. A maidservant with braids came over with a tray. Bai Weiyang lay under the blanket and scanned her. The tray was placed on the simple table in the room. On the tray were two white steamed buns, a plate of pickled vegetables, and a plate of vegetable porridge. The bowls and plates looked like they were used by servants. Bai Weiyang used to be the Mistress of Hellgate. When had she ever suffered such humiliation? After the maidservant left, she stood up and raised her hand, knocking the plate to the ground. Hearing the sound of the plate hitting the ground, the maidservant suddenly turned around. ¡°Third Miss, why are you so careless!¡± Bai Weiyang smiled and said, ¡°Aiya, I accidentally knocked it over.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll go get some more for you.¡± The maidservant¡¯s heart ached for this silly Third Miss! She didn¡¯t notice anything different about Bai Weiyang¡¯s smile. ¡°There¡¯s no need to!¡± Bai Weiyang waved her hand and walked out of the door with her hands behind her back. The maidservant was dumbfounded. What was the matter with Third Miss? Bai Zhengjun and his family were eating in the cafeteria when Bai Weiyang walked into the house through the corridor! Bai Weiyang¡¯s appearance caught everyone off guard, and everyone¡¯s chopsticks stopped in midair. ¡°You. Why are you here instead of eating?¡± Bai Zhengjun berated after recovering from his shock. Bai Weiyang thought to herself. This man had forcefully raped her mother and made her his concubine just to give birth to a son. In the end, she gave birth to a good-for-nothing daughter¡­ If not for her engagement to the Feng Family, Bai Weiyang would have been drowned long ago. ¡°Daddy, I¡¯m here to eat!¡± Bai Weiyang calmly sat down on the empty seat at the white maple wooden dining table. Then, she drummed her fingers on the table. ¡°Where¡¯s my food!¡± Perhaps it was because Bai Hongye had never seen Bai Weiyang sit at the dining table so domineeringly as Bai Weiyang was weak and incompetent in the past, Bai Hongye jumped up and pointed at Bai Weiyang with her chopsticks. ¡°You, you, you¡­¡± Bai Weiyang tilted her head and looked at the noisy Bai Hongye calmly. She still had a smile on her face. ¡°When did Fourth Sister become a little stutterer? Do you want to find a doctor to take a look?¡± Bai Hongye almost fainted from anger. Madam Bai Zhou was furious. She stood up and reprimanded, ¡°Bai Weiyang, you¡¯re just a concubine¡¯s daughter. You don¡¯t have the right to eat at the table!¡± Bai Weiyang turned her head slowly. ¡°Then where do you think I should eat?¡± ¡°Stay in your dog kennel and be sensible.¡± Madam Bai Zhou¡¯s pupils constricted, displaying her authority as the mistress of the family. Bai Weiyang shrugged. Her chubby face pouted as she counted with her fingers. ¡°Isn¡¯t my dog kennel the Bai Residence? If I am a puppy to begin with, Daddy will be a stubborn dog! Is Mommy an old bitch?¡± Chapter 17 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Dog¡­ old bitch? Madam Bai Zhou¡¯s expression turned extremely ugly. ¡°You, you¡­¡± ¡°Mother, stuttering is an illness. Get a doctor to take a look at you and Fourth Sister! After all, you¡¯re already stuttering at such a young age. What are you going to do in the future?¡± Bai Weiyang said with a nasal voice without changing her expression. ¡°You¡¯re crazy.¡± It was Bai Qinglian who said that. It was the first time she had seen the cowardly Bai Weiyang so eloquent. She could not help but mutter. Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t take her seriously at all. Instead, she turned around and pouted pitifully. ¡°Father, I¡¯m your biological daughter. Mommy said that I¡¯m a dog and that you¡¯re an old dog, but you kept quiet! Father is on the side of outsiders~¡± Old dog¡­ This term almost made Bai Zhengjun¡¯s beard straighten in anger! He pointed at Bai Weiyang¡¯s nose. ¡°She¡¯s rebelling. This girl must be crazy.¡± At this moment. A maidservant outside the reception pavilion called out timidly, ¡°M-Master¡­¡± Bai Zhengjun had already rolled up his sleeves. ¡°Don¡¯t speak yet. I¡¯m going to teach this arrogant lass a lesson.¡± Bai Weiyang, who was sitting there, looked at the exasperated Bai Zhengjun with a mysterious expression. Just as the dining room was in dead silence, a voice suddenly interrupted. ¡°This must be Third Miss.¡± Huh? Everyone at the dining table turned to look. Bai Weiyang met Er Mo¡¯s gaze and pointed at her nose in surprise. ¡°Are you calling me?¡± The faces of everyone in the Bai Family flushed red and white. Why would the chief maidservant of Madam Wu of the Feng Residence come to the Bai Residence? ¡°¡­?¡± What was even more horrifying was that Bai Weiyang had rudely said, ¡®Are you calling me?¡¯ Madam Bai Zhou¡¯s expression changed drastically as she quickly made the introduction. ¡°This is Er Mo, Madam Feng¡¯s chief maid!¡± Bai Weiyang looked at Er Mo with watery eyes and an innocent smile on her face as she observed this 40-year-old servant. Er Mo touched Bai Weiyang¡¯s face, and a gratified smile appeared on her face. ¡°Third Miss, Madam asked me to come over and serve you before your wedding until you successfully marry into the Feng Family.¡± Bai Weiyang still had that silly smile on her face. However, she was very puzzled. Was Madam afraid that she wouldn¡¯t be able to marry into the Feng Family? Or did she send Er Mo to monitor her? Wu Su¡¯s actions seemed considerate, but it made Bai Zhengjun and Madam Bai Zhou feel especially awkward. Madam Bai Zhou laughed dryly. ¡°We¡¯re sorry to trouble Madam. The Bai Family will definitely take good care of Weiyang. However, without you, Madam¡¯s life will definitely be inconvenient.¡± Er Mo stood beside Bai Weiyang, looking like a protector. ¡°Madam Bai, you¡¯re too kind. But Madam heard that Third Miss attempted to jump into the lake a few days ago, which means that the Bai Family didn¡¯t protect her well. She¡¯s the future Military Governor¡¯s wife. No one can bear the consequences if anything happens.¡± ¡°¡­¡± No one answered in the Bai Residence. After a dead silence, Er Mo looked at the empty bowl in front of Bai Weiyang and pretended to be curious. ¡°Eh, where¡¯s Third Miss¡¯s meal? Why hasn¡¯t it been served yet!¡± ¡ª!! The servants moved as fast as they could. There were soup dumplings on an exquisite white jade porcelain plate, milk in a clean glass, almond tofu in a small white bowl, and cut cucumber segments on a small gray plate. This meal was much better than the porridge and pickles just now. Bai Weiyang minded her own business and started eating. On the other hand, Bai Hongye couldn¡¯t hold it in at all. Since Er Mo from the Feng Residence was here, she decided to go all out. ¡°It¡¯s useless no matter how well you treat her! Brother Songjie likes me! This fool doesn¡¯t have a chance.¡± Bai Weiyang¡¯s heart skipped a beat. Chapter 18 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Qinglian, who was drinking milk, almost choked. In an instant, she widened her eyes and looked over. Madam Bai Zhou also held her forehead in frustration. Why was Hongye so impulsive? How could Second Master Feng like you?! You even said this in front of Er Mo. Aren¡¯t you waiting to be laughed at by the Feng family? Bai Zhengjun was dumbfounded. The atmosphere was especially awkward. Everyone was waiting for Er Mo¡¯s response. Er Mo was also very shocked. How did Bai Hongye know that Second Master had deliberately shown his love for her? Her eyes were half-closed. She looked down and said. ¡°Last night, Second Master did come to the Feng Residence and asked to change the bride to Bai Hongye, but Madam liked Second Miss Bai Qinglian! After a few rounds, they were in a deadlock. In the end, they could only maintain the original engagement!¡± Huh! After Er Mo finished speaking, everyone in the Bai Residence was shocked! Wh-what? The Military Governor had personally said that he liked Bai Hongye and even argued with Madam? Madam Bai Zhou was embarrassed. What Hongye said was true!! Bai Qinglian¡¯s face¡­ flashed green and white at a loss. It was normal for Madam to like her, but Brother Songjie liked Fourth Sister? How was Fourth Sister¡­ likable? Turning around, Bai Qinglian saw Bai Hongye¡¯s smug expression. At that moment, Bai Qinglian felt as if a thorn had pierced her heart. Bai Hongye was smug. That fool was indeed not lying! Only Bai Weiyang¡­ ¡°¡­¡± She continued to eat the almond tofu, but her heart filled with shock. That was something she said casually. But, it was actually true? Feng Songjie liked Hongye? She heaved a sigh of relief. After Bai Weiyang finished her meal and left with Er Mo, Bai Qinglian couldn¡¯t help but look at Bai Hongye with mixed emotions. ¡°Brother Songjie likes Hongye? How is that possible?¡± Bai Hongye smiled sweetly and cutely. ¡°Is Second Sister jealous of me?¡± As she spoke, she touched her cheek and said narcissistically, ¡°I¡¯m so innocent and cute. Why doesn¡¯t Brother Songjie like me?¡± Bai Qinglian was speechless. Bai Qinglian, who had always behaved magnanimously, could not argue with Fourth Sister at this moment. She could only smile. ¡°I mean that Brother Songjie¡¯s concubines aren¡¯t on the same page as Hongye. I thought he liked flirtatious types.¡± ¡°Second Sister, you¡¯re not the flirtatious type either.¡± Bai Hongye found it funny. The sisters were jealous and hated each other, making Madam Bai Zhou¡¯s head hurt. ¡°Hongye, Qinglian, stop talking! No matter who Feng Songjie likes, no matter who Madam likes, the result will remain the same!¡± ¡®Result?¡¯ The two of them suddenly stopped and stomped their feet in anger. Damn it, the person Second Master Feng was going to marry was still Bai Weiyang! At this moment, in Bai Weiyang¡¯s shabby room, Er Mo didn¡¯t say anything and just stood at the side to serve her. Seeing how sensible she was, Bai Weiyang knew that this old woman had been taught well by Wu Su. She sat at the old eight-seater table with her legs crossed and sipping tea. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Er Mo. ¡°What did Madam ask you to do?¡± Er Mo lowered her head. ¡°As I said just now, protect Third Miss until the day you get married successfully.¡± ¡°Based on my failed attempt to break off the engagement, the Bai Family won¡¯t do anything to me!¡± She already knew that her engagement with the Feng Family could not be annulled. If there was a second drowning incident, the Bai Family would definitely be involved. The Bai Family would not joke about this matter! So, was this old woman in front of her sent to monitor her actions? Chapter 19 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations As soon as Er Mo raised her head, she noticed the terrifying gaze of the girl in front of her. It was as if she could read people¡¯s minds, making it impossible for them to hide. Er Mo hurriedly put on a smile. ¡°Madam said that you¡¯re very smart. You¡¯re indeed very smart.¡± ¡°Uh-huh!¡± Bai Weiyang smiled and rested her cheek on her hand as she continued to look at Er Mo. Er Mo had seen Bai Weiyang before and knew how weak and useless she was. Although she couldn¡¯t understand what had happened, she liked this girl who spoke clearly and methodically. Er Mo thought for a moment and said honestly, ¡°After Second Young Master and Madam fell out, Madam felt that Second Young Master would harm you, so she specially asked me to come over and take care of you.¡± ¡°Will he really kill me?¡± Bai Weiyang¡¯s heart trembled slightly. It wasn¡¯t because she was afraid, but because she found it unbelievable. Would he really not want to marry her to the point of killing her? But then again, if someone arranged a marriage for her and the other party was a fool, she would have the urge to kill them too! ¡°After all, Second Young Master has always disliked Bai Weiyang. Perhaps.¡± Er Mo laughed dryly. ¡°That¡¯s true. No one wants to marry a fool.¡± Bai Weiyang stroked her chin as she weighed her options. Today, Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t leave the house and stayed in her room. Er Mo had come to the Bai Family and with Er Mo around, the Bai Family treated Bai Weiyang with the utmost respect. At dusk, Er Mo ¡°coincidentally met¡± Bai Qinglian, who pretended to be casual. ¡°Er Mo, how has Madam been recently?¡± Er Mo lowered her eyebrows. ¡°Second Miss Bai, Madam is very good.¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t seen Madam in a long time. I miss her.¡± Bai Qinglian frowned. Er Mo knew her limits. She just smiled and didn¡¯t say a word. This made Bai Qinglian¡¯s heart turn cold. After thinking about it, she said softly, ¡°Madam is really too much. Letting Er Mo accompany Bai Weiyang makes it seem like our Bai Family is trying to kill her.¡± ¡°God knows what Madam thinks.¡± After Er Mo lowered her head and replied that, she said that she was going to wait on Third Miss. Bai Qinglian was so angry that she almost cried on the spot. Madam clearly likes me the most, but you don¡¯t know how to please me. When I marry into the Feng Family in the future, you¡¯ll be the first person I¡¯ll teach a lesson to! It was late at night. Bai Weiyang had always been a light sleeper. She instantly opened her eyes and sat up on the bed when she suddenly heard a slight movement outside the backyard. With the help of the dim light outside the window, she got out of bed nimbly like a cat and walked towards the window. She lifted the curtains and saw through the glass window that there were two people nimbly climbing over the wall of the backyard of the Bai Residence. Their movements were light as they walked towards the laundry room. ¡°Huh?¡± Bai Weiyang was excited. Based on their figures and movements, the two people were soldiers. Bai Weiyang immediately understood. It seemed like this was what Er Mo had said. Feng Songjie had sent someone to kill her! They came really quickly. He was not playing around at all. However, she was very puzzled. Why did they bring a basket? Seeing the two of them walk over, Bai Weiyang made the bed look like someone was sleeping on it and then hid under the bed. Then, she quietly lifted the blanket and watched as the other party opened the window slightly and stuck a smoker in. Bai Weiyang had practiced how to hold her breath. She quickly covered her mouth and nose, held her breath, and stared at the window. After the two of them waited for the smoke to completely spread, they immediately poured the contents of the basket in, closed the window, and left quickly. What was thrown in? Chapter 20 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations With the help of the moonlight, Bai Weiyang immediately saw a crawling creature on the ground! It was a green snake as thick as a thumb. Chinese green tree viper! She stuffed two balls of toilet paper into her nostrils and quickly got up. Hit its weak spot! She had caught snakes and poached birds when she was young and her master threw her out for training. What had she not done? The more poisonous a snake was, the calmer she had to be! Without any hesitation, Bai Weiyang calmly grabbed the snake. The snake¡¯s head flicked out its forked tongue sharply, and it nearly fainted from Bai Weiyang¡¯s slap. She hit its weak spot, pulled out its poisonous fangs, and took out its poison sac. All of these actions were done in one go! Then, Bai Weiyang casually threw away the flowers in the vase on the table, threw the snake in, and closed the lid. She then leisurely opened the window and went to sleep. Early the next morning, Er Mo came over to help her get up. Bai Weiyang casually threw her a vase. ¡°Er Mo, there¡¯s a snake here! Go make me a pot of snake meat soup.¡± ¡°¡­?¡± Er Mo was so shocked that she almost threw the vase on the ground. Her wrinkled face instantly turned pale. There was a snake inside. She placed the vase on the table in fear. ¡°Th-Third Miss! This¡­?¡± How could there be a snake in the vase? This was what puzzled Er Mo the most. ¡°Go make a pot of snake soup. That¡¯s very nourishing.¡± ¡°¡­¡± In the morning, a strange scene appeared on the western dining table of Bai Residence. In front of everyone were sandwiches, toast, milk, bacon¡­ or Chinese buns! But a pot of soup was in front of Bai Weiyang? Madam Bai Zhou couldn¡¯t help but ask in surprise. ¡°What soup is that?¡± ¡°Snake soup!¡± Bai Weiyang drank the soup with a smile and added, ¡°Mother, do you want some?¡± ¡ª!! The words ¡®snake soup¡¯ were shocking enough. Why was there a snake in the Bai Residence? Madam Bai Zhou asked instinctively. ¡°What snake?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. I don¡¯t know either, but it looks very much like the Chinese green tree viper in the picture book I saw when I was young!¡± Ch-Chinese green tree viper? The members of the Bai Family, including Bai Zhengjun, were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped. It was already very puzzling that there was a snake in the Bai Residence, and it even was a highly toxic Chinese green tree viper. Thus, it was obvious that someone was deliberately trying to harm Bai Weiyang! Bai Zhengjun glared fiercely at Bai Qinglian and Bai Hongye. At this moment, the two sisters were glaring at each other. Bai Qinglian looked at Bai Hongye ¡°gently¡±, but she hated Bai Hongye to the extreme in her heart. The Feng Family was already afraid that something would happen, so they specially arranged for Er Mo to come over. In the end, this silly girl still dared to use a poisonous snake to poison Bai Weiyang. Did they think that they could marry Young Marshal Feng after Bai Weiyang died? Dream on! Bai Hongye knew her Second Sister¡¯s personality, but after being glared at, she refused to be outdone and retorted with her eyes. Madam likes you, but Second Master doesn¡¯t like you. You were the one who released the poisonous snake, right?! You¡¯re the one who has the most hope after killing Third Sister, that fool! Madam Bai Zhou was the most embarrassed. She knew that Qinglian wouldn¡¯t do such a thing. Only an impulsive Hongye would do such a thing. She didn¡¯t expect what Madam was afraid to really happen! Her expression was really ugly and she immediately reprimanded, ¡°Hongye, apologize immediately if it¡¯s you. It¡¯s too much to throw a venomous snake into her room!¡± Bai Hongye was speechless. The entire family looked over. Bai Hongye was so angry that her face turned red. ¡°Mother, you¡¯re suspecting that I did it without even asking!¡± Seeing that no one was willing to believe her, Bai Hongye ran away from the dining table in tears. Madam Bai Zhou squeezed out a smile for Er Mo. ¡°Er Mo, please forgive me for not disciplining the four girls well!¡± Er Mo pondered silently. ¡°¡­¡± Bai Weiyang. Hey, hey, did I say that Bai Hongye did it? Chapter 21 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations However, things were rather interesting. Madam Bai Zhou had asked Er Mo to take care of her, not because she was afraid that something would happen to her! This was much more interesting. Bai Zhengjun¡¯s face revealed a trace of confusion as he asked, ¡°Who caught the snake?¡± ¡°Of course, it¡¯s the smart, adorable and handsome me!¡± Bai Weiyang said adorably. ¡°¡ª!!¡± Everyone was first disgusted by her silly smile, then shocked by the meaning of that sentence. Surprise flashed across Bai Zhengjun¡¯s eyes. ¡°You can catch a snake?¡± Bai Weiyang raised her eyebrows and shrugged her shoulders casually. She shook her head in disbelief and said softly, ¡°Could it be that Father can¡¯t catch a snake? Even a child knows the principle of hitting a snake at its weak spot! ~ Then pull out its poisonous teeth and take out its poison sac! Could it be that Father doesn¡¯t dare to catch a snake?¡± She had a wicked smile on her face, as if she was teasing him. Bai Zhengjun¡¯s face instantly turned red. ¡°Who said I don¡¯t dare?¡± Bai Weiyang pursed her lips and smiled warmly. She continued to drink the snake meat soup slowly! Bai Qinglian glared at Bai Weiyang¡¯s face and cursed in her heart. Damn it, how was that possible?! Could Bai Weiyang catch the Chinese green tree viper? Although Bai Qinglian didn¡¯t believe it at all, she thought to herself that it might be because she was a fool that she didn¡¯t know how terrifying a poisonous snake was that she dared to catch it so boldly. Her lack of intelligence had saved her life. Bai Weiyang ate for an hour. After eating, she was dragged away by Er Mo to be measured and dressed! Er Mo said that she was about to get married. How could she not have a decent new wedding dress? The wedding in a week¡¯s time was a classic Chinese wedding according to Madam¡¯s preferences. At that time, they would send eight people to carry a sedan chair for Bai Weiyang to marry into their family! That day, Bai Weiyang was tormented by Er Mo. In the evening. Li Mengyun and Yang Minghua, who had been hiding near the Bai Residence, were dressed in casual clothes. They waited until evening, but did not see any movement from the Bai Residence. They could only stop a servant girl who went out to buy things. They pretended to ask casually. ¡°May I ask what¡¯s the matter with the Bai Family today?¡± The maid looked at the silver yuan in her hand and scratched her head. ¡°What can happen to the Bai Family? It¡¯s still a peaceful day as usual.¡± ¡°Third Miss¡­¡± Yang Minghua thought hard, but he didn¡¯t know how to shift the question to Bai Weiyang. The maidservant said excitedly, ¡°My Third Miss is about to marry the Military Governor! She even caught a snake last night.¡± ¡°Caught¡­ a snake?¡± The two of them watched as the little maidservant went into the sunset. Their expressions became a little ugly. They failed the Military Governor¡¯s order. As night approached, the two of them could only return to the Military Governor¡¯s Residence. In the study. A man in a green-gray military uniform stood with his hands clasped behind his back, holding a Marlboro cigarette. When he saw Li Mengyun and Yang Minghua return, he asked calmly, ¡°How did it go?¡± Adjutant Yang and Adjutant Li were embarrassed for a second. They looked at each other and saw the depression in each other¡¯s eyes. Finally, Adjutant Yang whispered, ¡°Sir, the target is not dead.¡± His tone was cautious. After all, they had always resolved the matters given by their commander in one go. Who knew that there would be a mistake this time? Feng Songjie immediately turned around. His obscure eyes were half-closed, and his hawk-like eyes were very soul-stirring. His gaze was dark and angry. ¡°You can¡¯t even kill someone silently? Adjutant Yang, Adjutant Li, you two are getting more and more useless.¡± Chapter 22 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Adjutant Li¡¯s face flashed green and white, and his face was covered in sweat. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I was negligent. I thought that I could kill the target by releasing a poisonous snake.¡± Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes were filled with elegance and calmness. After a while, he flicked off a long piece of cigarette ash and said, ¡°The venomous snake didn¡¯t kill her?¡± ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because of Third Miss¡¯s foolishness that the poisonous snake was killed.¡± Adjutant Yang¡¯s expression was very sullen. They didn¡¯t even kill a retarded girl. This was indeed negligence. Adjutant Li hurriedly said, ¡°I will definitely think of a way tonight¡­¡± Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes were dark as he said, ¡°There¡¯s no need. We¡¯ll be discovered if we go overboard.¡± Adjutant Li immediately became nervous. His lips trembled as he asked in a low voice, ¡°But, Sir, are you really going to marry Bai Weiyang?¡± At the thought that her superior was going to marry a fool, she felt indignant for him. Feng Songjie did not answer this question directly. He continued smoking and looked out of the window at the dark night. ¡°Have you found the woman who stole my jade pendant and gun?¡± Adjutant Yang immediately reported, ¡°I¡¯ve already found the shopkeeper who sold that dress according to the clues you gave me. It¡¯s the Nishang Western Clothing Store. The shopkeeper took out the maid uniform that the girl was wearing previously. It¡¯s a very ordinary maid uniform.¡± Feng Songjie lowered his head. His black eyes seemed to be able to devour everything. Adjutant Yang and Adjutant Li trembled. They knew very well what the Military Governor had always done. Feng Songjie¡¯s lips curled up slightly. ¡°So you haven¡¯t found her?¡± Their faces were as pale as paper, but they could only bite the bullet and say, ¡°¡­Yes!¡± Feng Songjie clenched his fists tightly as he thought of that woman. That audacious woman who dared to lay her hands on him! Daring to steal his gun and his ancestral jade pendant. She really didn¡¯t want to live anymore. It would be meaningless to find a woman who deserved a beating. With this thought in mind, Feng Songjie let go of his fist and said evilly, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter.¡± After a pause, he whispered three words, ¡°Take your time.¡± ¡ª? What? The Military Governor wasn¡¯t angry? He even wanted them to take their time to search. What kind of trick was this! He might as well beat them up and scold them to vent his anger. He used such a gentle tone to slowly search for them. It sent chills down their spines. Feng Songjie thought for a moment and added with a cold expression, ¡°Don¡¯t use the soldiers from the Military Governor¡¯s Office. It¡¯s too obvious. Use the Eagle Eye of the Shadow Pavilion to investigate!¡± Jiang City was the provincial capital of Jiangbei Province, and the Military Governor¡¯s Office was the military government of Jiangbei Province. Feng Songjie was the military and political officer in charge of Jiangbei Province. On the surface, there were definitely some things that he could not do, so he established the Shadow Pavilion six years ago! The Shadow Pavilion was the largest underground organization in Jiangbei Province. Feng Songjie was the Master of the Shadow Pavilion. In six years, he had long nurtured a large group of powerful Eagle Eyes to deal with matters that the Military Governor¡¯s Office could not handle. That night, Bai Weiyang, who did not know what was going on, was tempted to go to the Heavenly Music Club again after being tormented by Er Mo for the entire day. This time, she was wearing a manservant¡¯s narrow-sleeved robe and a blue riding jacket. Bai Weiyang, who was proficient in modern makeup and disguise techniques, made her face look plain and ordinary in two or three moves with charcoal! After confirming that no one was prepared to ¡°kill her for money¡±, she climbed over the wall eagerly. In the middle of the night, wearing a Chinese skullcap, she hailed a rickshaw. ¡°Master! I¡¯m going to the Heavenly Music Club!¡± The rickshaw puller¡¯s eyes lit up when he saw the silver yuan. He didn¡¯t ask further. Usually, a servant would pick up his young master in the middle of the night. Bai Weiyang was still unaware of the impending danger. Chapter 23 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang sat in the rickshaw with her legs crossed! Looking at the old Shanghai-like neon lights on both sides of the street, she felt like she had returned to the early Hong Kong movies she had seen. She listened to the gentle tune of the phonograph from the shops. She hummed along happily! Unfortunately, as soon as she got out of the car, with Bai Weiyang¡¯s vigilance, she realized that there seemed to be many¡­ strange people on the entire street where the Heavenly Music Club was. Even though everyone was pretending to be chatting, their gazes swept across the people on the street from time to time, especially those exquisitely dressed women. Based on her past experience, Bai Weiyang immediately became alert. Were these people looking for someone? Who were they looking for! She instinctively placed her hand on the gun behind her back! But then she became casual. They weren¡¯t looking for her, so why was she so nervous? It would only arouse suspicion. Before walking into the Heavenly Music Club, she accidentally heard a passerby muttering. ¡°I heard that the person who assassinated Miss Byrd was from the Shadow Pavilion!¡± ¡°Nothing is certain!¡± Bai Weiyang¡¯s body trembled. She glanced at the gorgeous door of the Heavenly Music Club but ultimately failed to enter! Because she felt that there was a trap waiting for her. If the man who assassinated Miss Byrd last time was related to Shadow Pavilion, these strange passersby would be waiting for her to walk into their trap. She might as well go somewhere else to relax. She pretended that nothing had happened. After walking out of Ci¡¯an Road for a while, she turned into a small alley and twirled three silver needles on her fingers. Bai Weiyang spat. ¡°Tsk, you really think you can find me!¡± The heavens were not kind. Just as she finished muttering to herself, she heard a man¡¯s voice coming from a willow tree beside her like a ghost. ¡°Little thing, where are you running to!¡± Bai Weiyang¡¯s heart skipped a beat. She looked up and said casually, ¡°Brother, who are you? Why aren¡¯t you sleeping in the middle of the night? Are you trying to scare me to death?¡± Feng Songjie had been sitting here to rest. He intended to continue looking for her in the second half of the night. Unexpectedly, a reckless little lass bumped into him. He jumped down from the tree swiftly. His tone was extremely sinister. ¡°Brother, I¡¯m not your brother. I¡¯m your ancestor!¡± This time, Bai Weiyang immediately remembered the owner of the voice. She looked at the man who was dressed in a black shirt, black pants, black newspaper boy hat, and black mask. He was wrapped up tightly. There was also a black bag at the back of his waist. She didn¡¯t know what was inside. Bai Weiyang was born to disagree with others. A relaxed smile appeared on her lips. ¡°If you want to be my ancestor, you should go back and cultivate for eight hundred years!¡± Little did she know that Feng Songjie was not angry at all. Under the black paperboy hat, a shadow fell over his face, making it impossible to see his eyes. He only said, ¡°You¡¯re the one who stole from me, right?¡± Bai Weiyang retorted shamelessly, ¡°Who stole your things? It¡¯s not a good thing to slander someone without any evidence.¡± Feng Songjie said casually, ¡°Whether you stole it or not, just let me search your body.¡± Search? This immediately reminded Bai Weiyang of the pretentious passersby near the Heavenly Music Club. She narrowed her eyes. ¡°You¡¯re from Shadow Pavilion, right?¡± ¡°Have a guess?¡± Feng Songjie raised his brows. Chapter 24 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations In the darkness, the other party was wearing a mask and blinking his clear eyes at her. Although Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t see his expression, she felt a flash of light in her eyes and knew that she was doomed. Damn it, if this bastard called for help immediately, she would really be walking into a tiger¡¯s den. Without hesitation, she ran and jumped. With two light taps of her feet, she used her parkour skills and jumped over the wall into the courtyard beside the alley. Her smooth actions stunned Feng Songjie for two seconds. He cursed. ¡°You want to run? Do you think you can escape?¡± Although Feng Songjie¡¯s waist was injured, it was not to the extent that he could not climb over a wall. He decisively jumped over the wall and entered. He felt a cold light flash before his eyes and his body went numb. He fell to the ground. ¡°What did you do to me¡ª¡± He wanted to struggle, but he realized that his body could not move! Just as he cursed, his body went numb again, and his mouth could not speak. What kind of ability was this? Was this little lass a ghost? Feng Songjie almost fainted on the spot when the little thing in the skullcap waved a silver needle at him. They were already in the new era. She even knew how to use flying needles to tap acupoints! This was a lost skill. Bai Weiyang said with a smile, ¡°What if you shout? Wouldn¡¯t I be dead for sure?¡± Feng Songjie did not expect this little fellow to have such a skill. He cursed himself for being careless. However, in the next second, he felt a little annoyed when the black bag behind his waist was taken away. On second thought, the hillbilly probably didn¡¯t even know how to use that. ¡°Eh, what is this!¡± Bai Weiyang opened the black bag, took out the things inside, and sized them up. ¡°A camera?¡± Looking like an early Ermanox camera, this camera is smaller and uses a two-by-three-inch glass dry board. Its lens caliber is 1:2. ¡°An old camera, tsk!¡± Feng Songjie was surprised. This little lass knew about cameras? But she definitely didn¡¯t know how to use them. He could not make a sound, but he watched as the dark-faced youth¡¯s gaze landed on him. His black eyes rolled three times. Bai Weiyang snapped her fingers. I¡¯ve got it. She said in a kind tone, ¡°Tell me, if I strip you naked and take a nude photo! You won¡¯t dare to do anything to me even if you¡¯re the emperor! Hehe, ain¡¯t I very smart?¡± Her tone was filled with self-satisfaction and mischief. Feng Songjie almost fainted from anger! This little thing was really daring! If she really dared, he would skin her alive later. Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t know what the man was up to. She just wanted to get something on him as soon as possible! She dragged his tall ¡°corpse¡± down the backyard corridor of the mansion. ¡°It¡¯s too dark here. Let¡¯s go to the corridor in the backyard. There¡¯s no one there in the middle of the night anyway. It¡¯s bright enough there!¡± Feng Songjie almost fainted. This was the first time in his life that he had suffered such grievances. After Bai Weiyang dragged him over, she lifted the other party¡¯s mask without a word. It was an exceptionally arrogant and noble handsome face! His eyes were like a proud cheetah as he glared at her as if he could eat her. Bai Weiyang ignored his fierce gaze and pinched his face excitedly, as if praising a pretty boy, ¡°You¡¯re¡ªnot bad!¡± This was an insult! Even if she praised his good looks, it was still an insult. No man could stand such humiliation. Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes were bloodshot. He swore that once he was free, the first thing he would do when he regained his freedom was to chop this woman up and feed her to the dogs. Chapter 25 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations ¡°Your eyes tell me you want to kill me.¡± Bai Weiyang gave him an understanding smile and reminded him sweetly, ¡°But don¡¯t worry. Before I humiliate you, you can choose to bite your tongue and commit suicide!¡± As Bai Weiyang spoke, she unbuttoned his clothes. At that moment, Feng Songjie¡¯s face was ashen! Bai Weiyang looked excitedly at his bare chest, which had been ripped open. His strong chest, muscular body, and extremely alluring muscles were all revealed under the light! It was as if she saw the bodies of Captain America and Thor in Marvel movies. It made people salivate! Any woman who saw such a figure would want to pounce on him and lick him twice before giving him a kiss¡ª! It was an irresistible body. ¡°Your figure is not bad~~¡± Bai Weiyang coughed lightly and licked her lips. Her eyes were filled with mischievous admiration. Feng Songjie: ¡°¡­¡± The corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably. Was this little lass still a woman? Where did this pervert come from? This was the first time in Feng Songjie¡¯s life that a woman had directly expressed a desire to rape him! Only a man would have such an expression. Was she a woman or not? Scary. However, his acupuncture points had been sealed by the flying needles, so there was nothing he could do now. He could not even bite his tongue! He could only watch the woman strip him from top to bottom. Pants, long johns, inner¡­ underwear¡­ Until, he was stripped naked. This was probably the first time in his life that he felt humiliated after his clothes were taken off. A strong sense of humiliation rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He felt like smoke was about to come out from the top of his head! This was probably the first time Feng Songjie had experienced how shameful and indignant it was to force a woman to take off her clothes when she was unwilling. Feng Songjie really wanted to die. However, he kept telling himself that when he regained his freedom, he would take revenge on this woman. Hence, he could only endure the pain and discomfort now. His body was twisted into a strange shape. ¡°Don¡¯t be so reluctant! Come, it¡¯s your first time posing. Give me the sleeping posture of a noblewoman!¡± Feng Songjie almost fainted before he could catch his breath. Damn it, damn it, damn it! Bai Weiyang stood excitedly at the side, holding the basic light-sensing camera. ¡°Click!¡± The second one. His legs were overlapping. ¡°Click!¡± The third photo was the spread eagle posture that resembled a male corpse who had been raped. ¡°Click!¡± The fourth photo was a seductive kept-man pose. ¡°Click!¡± After taking a few photos along the way, Bai Weiyang waved her camera and said with a smile, ¡°The film is very valuable, so I won¡¯t let you waste it!¡± Feng Songjie seemed to have been pulled back from the brink of death. Was it finally over? He looked at this woman as if she was an alien. ¡°Honey, that¡¯s it for tonight.¡± After Bai Weiyang finished speaking calmly, she stretched and deliberately used her fair and soft hands to touch Feng Songjie¡¯s chest twice. She pretended to tease him and pinched his nipples. She said with a wicked smile, ¡°You don¡¯t have to look at me with an ashamed and resentful expression. Otherwise, I won¡¯t be willing to leave!¡± Feng Songjie¡¯s heart skipped a beat. He screamed in his heart, Get lost, pervert! Bai Weiyang knew what he was feeling. Before she left, she deliberately lowered her head and planted a heavy kiss on his lips. ¡°Mua~~!¡± Feng Songjie was dumbfounded. ¡°Goodbye!¡± When he came back to his senses, he saw that the lass wearing the skullcap had already jumped onto the wall and turned around to add on. Chapter 26 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations ¡°Oh, let me remind you that your acupoints will be unsealed in half an hour. You¡¯d better pray that no one will come to the backyard of this residence during this period of time, or else¡­ your naked body will be exposed! The servant will think that you have an affair with one of the maidservants in the residence, hahaha!¡± Feng Songjie wanted to chase after that woman and skin her to vent his anger after being stripped naked and thrown into someone else¡¯s backyard. However, it was a fact that there was no way for him to escape. He glanced at his waist. When had the silver needles been taken away? That woman was indeed fast! She must have taken advantage of the kiss! Feng Songjie cursed in his heart again. Damn it, he actually lost his mind because of a kiss. But that perverted woman had stolen his first kiss! He struggled for half an hour. Feng Songjie kept cursing in his heart. Damn it, that little thing really dared. She really dared! Did she really think that he wouldn¡¯t kill her? Feng Songjie, who had regained his freedom, was so angry that his entire body was trembling. After putting on his clothes, he cursed softly and immediately jumped over the wall to meet Adjutant Li, who was looking for him. ¡°Master.¡± She sized up Feng Songjie¡¯s face, which wasn¡¯t wearing a mask or a paperboy¡¯s hat. After all, this was the Military Governor, but Master didn¡¯t hide his face in the middle of the night. If he was discovered¡­ Just as Adjutant Li was about to remind him, she suddenly noticed that the man¡¯s expression and eyes were especially sinister. He was as cold as the snow on a winter night. He took out the British pocket watch from his pocket and glanced at the time. Then, he said, ¡°Get everyone to search the entire city! Find a young manservant in a skullcap, a long robe, and a blue vest.¡± Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes flashed coldly, like a tyrant looking down on the world. His voice was evil and his face was filled with displeasure. ¡°¡­Yes, Master.¡± Adjutant Yang and Adjutant Li couldn¡¯t help but tremble when they left. They thought to themselves. I didn¡¯t see my senior officer for an hour just now, but he suddenly appeared an hour later with such a cold expression. He wasn¡¯t even so angry when he negotiated with the commander of the southwest warlords in the past! How did a servant with a skullcap offend my senior officer? Feng Songjie, who was left behind, thought of the humiliating photos that had been taken of him. He had to catch that little thing before the photos were developed. Previously, he was still a little interested in her, but now, he only wanted to crush her like an ant! ¡°I don¡¯t believe you can escape to the ends of the earth today, you wench.¡± Bai Weiyang yawned in the slightly cold night! She had been strolling around Jiang City at night and even strolled all the way to Chardonnay Road. This was known as a concession area. There were consulates from various countries and foreign garden villas everywhere. As soon as she left the Concession Area, she suddenly realized that there seemed to be more spies around them. Damn it, why are there suddenly so many lackeys around? That guy must be able to move now and not give up on finding me! What a persistent person. Bai Weiyang had a plan before those lackeys discovered her. If she escaped to the Military Governor¡¯s residence¡­ The other party would definitely not find her! Hehe. Bai Weiyang had always been a swift and decisive person. She was a typical example of someone who would do whatever she thought of. She was the leader of the action faction. The Military Governor¡¯s residence was near the Concession. She walked into an alley as if no one was around. Then, she climbed up the wall that was about three meters tall. She leaned against the wall and observed for a few seconds to confirm that there were no guards on the other side of the wall. Bai Weiyang jumped over the wall and waited in the grass for a few seconds. Only then did she bend down and walk down the corridor as nimbly as a little cheetah. Suddenly, someone¡¯s shadow came into view from the corner and there were footsteps. Damned it! It was the patrolling guards. Bai Weiyang looked around. There was no place to hide. Then, she stepped on the pillar and jumped onto the wooden beam above the corridor. If Feng Songjie knew that the person he wanted to find the most was hiding in his house¡­ his expression would probably be very interesting. Chapter 27 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations After the patrolling soldiers passed by, Bai Weiyang was about to get down from the beam when she suddenly saw someone hanging the beam with a rope in the middle of the night. It was as if¡ª Hey, hey, hey, someone is committing suicide in the middle of the night! When she realized this, she couldn¡¯t care less that she was still on the run. ¡°Saving people is like putting out a fire. There¡¯s nothing left if I am late.¡± The person committing suicide in the house was not destined to die tonight. Without another word, Bai Weiyang quickly opened the window above the door and flipped over. Then, she hugged the delicate body that was already hanging on the rope. Bai Weiyang carried the frail body down to the bed beside her. Bai Weiyang saw the beautiful young woman in her arms clearly. Or should she call her a young maiden? In short, she had the appearance of Lin Daiyu1 and her brows were knitted. Her eyes were like spring water, and her clear waves flowed like the clouds. Her fingers were like the roots of a green onion, and her waist was like flowing willow. Her face was fragrant, weak and beautiful. Her skin was fair, and she exuded a delicate and alluring aura. She was wearing a pink satin and lace nightgown, like a little princess who had descended to the mortal world. Bai Weiyang was stunned. Damn it, her legendary fianc¨¦ was actually hiding a mistress in a golden house! This was probably one of his concubines! However, Bai Weiyang couldn¡¯t lose her temper. Firstly, she had no feelings for her fianc¨¦. Secondly, her life was at stake. Thirdly, the girl was too beautiful! She hugged her and said gently, ¡°Little beauty, why did you commit suicide for no reason?¡± Yu Youwei raised her head and looked at the black-faced youth. However, the voice in her ears seemed to be that of a girl. Her emotions of wanting to scream weakened, but her eyes were filled with tears as she cried, ¡°I-I-I-I don¡¯t want to live anymore!¡± Bai Weiyang caressed her cute little face. ¡°Don¡¯t be like this. There¡¯s still a long way to go. You¡¯re so beautiful. Wouldn¡¯t it be a waste if you died just like that?¡± Yu Youwei wiped her tears in confusion. ¡°Who are you?¡± Bai Weiyang smiled mysteriously. ¡°Me? A lost pageboy in the mortal world.¡± The random nonsense made the girl want to cry even more. Bai Weiyang wasn¡¯t a busybody. She was just interested in her fianc¨¦¡¯s ¡°harem¡±. Such a beautiful and cute girl actually wanted to commit suicide. Yu Youwei cried and said, ¡°He never came to visit me. He didn¡¯t even look at me!¡± ¡°Why? You¡¯re so beautiful, and he won¡¯t look at you or sleep with you?¡± This left a deep impression on Bai Weiyang. It was like a thunderclap. A possibility flashed through his mind. There seemed to be nothing wrong with the girl¡¯s personality. Was it that her legendary fianc¨¦ couldn¡¯t get it up? Bai Weiyang raised her brows and said meaningfully, ¡°The Military Governor brought you in but never visited you. Is this the reason for your suicide?¡± Yu Youwei¡¯s eyes were filled with sorrow again. ¡°Isn¡¯t it enough for me to commit suicide if he doesn¡¯t like me?¡± Bai Weiyang knew that such thinking was very in line with the current relationship between a man and a woman, but she still said from the bottom of her heart, ¡°If you only live for him in this life, then living is indeed no different from dying. Continue to commit suicide then. I won¡¯t disturb you! Goodbye.¡± That legendary fianc¨¦, whether he could get it up or not, had nothing to do with her. In order to avoid talking too much and attracting the guards, Bai Weiyang quickly opened the door and observed the commotion outside before quickly leaving. Yu Youwei sat on the ground and looked at the closed door. She sat up in a daze. She murmured, ¡°Who is he?¡± Or should she say her¡­? Chapter 28 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t know that someone had been wondering about her identity. After leaving the Military Governor¡¯s residence, she could see that there were fewer spies outside. ¡°After a long night, they¡¯ve all left! If I don¡¯t go back soon, Er Mo will be looking for me at dawn.¡± *** Feng Songjie sent people to search until five in the morning. In the end, the team leaders of the Shadow Pavilion came to report one by one, saying that there were no clues. This made Feng Songjie, who was sitting on the tree, very angry. That woman was very scheming and smart, making him even angrier! Damn it. They had sent out so many Shadow Pavilion¡¯s Eagle Eyes, but they couldn¡¯t even find a single strand of her hair. Could she still fly out of Jiang City? Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes were unusually cold. ¡°Pass down the order. Send an informant to guard the Heavenly Music Club. Once an unfamiliar girl appears, capture her immediately!¡± ¡°Yes, Master!¡± That little thing had appeared in the Heavenly Music Club several times. She will definitely appear again in the near future. Feng Songjie was certain that he would be able to catch that little thing within a short time! After Bai Weiyang returned, she hid the camera under the bed and slept for two hours until dawn. After washing up, she sat at the dining table and ate her breakfast listlessly. In the eyes of the Bai Family, this look was extremely ¡°natural¡±. In the past, Bai Weiyang was such a weak, incompetent, foolish, and listless person. This was normal. Because Bai Hongye was angry, she didn¡¯t eat breakfast today and went out early to play with her best friends. Bai Qinglian looked at Bai Weiyang and felt that something was amiss. ¡°Why do you look like you haven¡¯t slept enough?¡± With a spoon in her mouth, Bai Weiyang smiled until her eyes narrowed into slits. ¡°Second Sister, are you worried about me?¡± ¡°Hmph!¡± Bai Qinglian snorted. Bai Weiyang continued to eat the seafood shrimp porridge, pretending that she didn¡¯t know how to use a knife and fork. She picked up the bacon with her chopsticks and ate it, enjoying the disdain on the table. As she bit her chopsticks, she said, ¡°I bumped into a snake when I was sleeping the night before. I was so scared last night that I couldn¡¯t sleep well!¡± This time, no one replied. Er Mo stood at the side and waited on Bai Weiyang. Whatever they said would easily reach Madam Feng¡¯s ears. Conservatively speaking, it was better to keep a low profile! *** Er Mo was personally watching in the Bai Residence. Before the wedding, the Bai Residence was very quiet. No one dared to cause trouble for Bai Weiyang. This continued until the night before the wedding. Er Mo placed the red wedding dress that she had prepared on the bed. Although the people¡¯s wisdom had been awoken and the times were open, and there were already people learning the Western-style church wedding, as the Military Governor, he still adhered to the ancient Chinese-style agreement. It was a classic Chinese-style wedding. ¡°This room is very simple, but you¡¯ll marry into the Military Governor¡¯s residence and be his wife tomorrow! Tonight is the last night. Are you excited?¡± ¡°Should I be excited?¡± Bai Weiyang looked up at Er Mo adorably. In the past few days, Er Mo had used the excuse of protection to observe her for a period of time. She had seen all kinds of things, but she still couldn¡¯t understand this girl¡¯s thoughts. Occasionally, was she really stupid or faking it? Er Mo didn¡¯t expose her and just smiled. ¡°Sleep well tonight!¡± After Er Mo left, Bai Weiyang looked at the neatly arranged red wedding dress with mixed feelings. In her previous life, after she had leukemia, she got married once! She thought that she and Qin Yu had feelings for each other, but in the end¡­ Those explosive devices were originally used as a precaution. She did not expect Qin Yu to reveal his intention within half a year. They ended up fighting to the death. After transmigrating over, she was going to marry a man she had never met before immediately. Moreover, this man had a few concubines! Was she really going to give up her youth immediately? On the other hand, Feng Songjie stood at the window of the study, staring at the moonlight with a solemn expression. He had taken in two concubines and a dance girl, but he still could not stop a fool from becoming Mrs. Feng! If someone had to become the Military Governor¡¯s wife, Feng Songjie¡¯s mind flashed with images of the little thing who had embarrassed him twice¡­ Chapter 29 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Adjutant Li knocked on the door and said uneasily. ¡°Sir, aren¡¯t you going to sleep? Tomorrow¡­¡± It was the wedding. Feng Songjie stared at the bright moonlight. He said disappointedly, ¡°Haven¡¯t you found that person yet?¡± That person was the person that her superior had been thinking about recently¡­ An unknown lady had some conflict with him. Adjutant Li said, ¡°Reporting, no unfamiliar faces have appeared in the Heavenly Music Club recently.¡± ¡°Alright, you may leave.¡± *** Adjutant Li could hear the disappointment in his superior¡¯s voice. She also left the study gloomily. Standing outside the study, Adjutant Li looked at the same bright moon. Damn it, why did she feel that her superior was very interested in the person who had offended him? The next day. At four in the morning, Bai Weiyang was woken up by Er Mo to freshen up, put on makeup, and change her clothes. She had already prepared the Three Letters & Six Etiquettes1. Bai Weiyang was wearing a wide-sleeved shirt, a pearl phoenix headgear, and red embroidered shoes. She yawned and sat in the room with her head covered as she waited. She cursed silently in her heart. It was already the Republic of China era. Couldn¡¯t they f*cking hold a modern wedding? The red wedding dress was very retro, but this marriage ceremony was too tiring. When it was about ten in the morning, the bridal escort team came over. As it was the Military Governor¡¯s wedding, the entire Jiang City was filled with joy. The bridal escort team also gave red packets to passersby as they walked along the street! Standing in the courtyard, they could hear the lively music on the street. The sound made Bai Qinglian and Bai Hongye¡¯s faces turn pale. Bai Hongye couldn¡¯t help but mock, ¡°That fool is about to marry the Military Governor.¡± Bai Qinglian¡¯s usually gentle and charming face was also a little mean. She glanced at Bai Hongye and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that Brother Songjie likes you? Why didn¡¯t he marry you?¡± Bai Hongye pouted with disdain on her face. ¡°It¡¯s all Madam Feng¡¯s fault that Brother Songjie didn¡¯t marry me.¡± After saying that, she glanced at her Second Sister disdainfully. ¡°On the other hand, Second Sister, you¡¯re so liked by Madam, but you didn¡¯t get anything as well.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Bai Qinglian¡¯s expression turned ugly. Bai Hongye said arrogantly, ¡°At least Brother Songjie has me in his heart. Anyway, marrying her is just for show. After he divorces this fool, I¡¯ll be the Military Governor¡¯s wife!¡± ¡°Fourth Sister, what¡¯s the point of saying so much now? The Military Governor will still marry the fool.¡± Feeling a little embarrassed, Bai Qinglian changed the topic. Just as the two of them were mumbling, the Military Governor¡¯s bridal escort team arrived near the Bai Residence. However, the two Bai Family sisters were delighted when the person in the groom¡¯s suit dismounted. Wasn¡¯t this Brother Songjie¡¯s Adjutant Yang? He was actually wearing the groom¡¯s clothes! This meant that the Military Governor didn¡¯t want to marry Bai Weiyang at all. He didn¡¯t want to marry a fool! Er Mo, Bai Zhengjun and his wife were also embarrassed. Yang Minghua felt so awkward being stared at by so many people. He quickly explained, ¡°The Military Governor has an important meeting today that he can¡¯t shirk. Therefore, he asked me to get married on his behalf!¡± Bai Zhengjun and his wife looked extremely excited. It seemed like Bai Qinglian and Bai Hongye still had a chance in the future! ¡°In that case, let¡¯s start the wedding.¡± Bai Zhengjun tried his best to speak naturally. After Bai Weiyang went through a series of cumbersome wedding procedures, she vaguely heard Bai Hongye¡¯s sarcastic remarks beside the palanquin before she boarded the bridal sedan. She knew that it wasn¡¯t her groom who was welcoming her personally. She was stunned for a moment before she laughed. The Military Governor indeed detested a fool! This was good too. After marrying her, they would look united whenever they were out and about. They would not have to see each other¡¯s faces. She got into the bridal sedan with a clear conscience. If Feng Songjie knew that the person he was going to marry today was the person he had been very interested in recently, he would probably really regret that he wasn¡¯t the one who came to welcome the bride! Chapter 30 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations The sound of gongs and drums filled the air, but the bridal sedan was as quiet as a chicken. Bai Weiyang was dozing off when she arrived at the Military Governor¡¯s residence in a daze. After the long bridal ceremony ended, Bai Weiyang couldn¡¯t continue sleeping. After getting off the bridal sedan, she was helped into the Military Governor¡¯s residence. There were loud voices and noisy discussions everywhere. Faint sighs entered her ears. ¡°Poor thing.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that so? The Military Governor is so considerate of the people, but in the end he has to marry an idiot!¡± ¡°The Feng Family really abide by the agreement. No matter how others mock Bai Weiyang for being a fool, the Military Governor doesn¡¯t leave Bai Weiyang. I¡¯m so touched!¡± ¡°What do you know.¡± ¡°Am I wrong?¡± Someone in the crowd who seemed to know the situation spoke secretly, ¡°You¡¯re all wrong! Everyone in the upper-class society knows that Feng Songjie doesn¡¯t like that fool, Bai Weiyang, but the Feng Family is extremely prideful. They don¡¯t want to be labeled as abandoning their stupid fianc¨¦e, so they forced themselves to accept! This led to today¡¯s tragic situation!¡± Everyone whispered to each other when they heard that. ¡°That¡¯s right. If the Military Governor really likes Bai Weiyang, why would he get Adjutant Yang to the wedding ceremony? This shows his attitude. Furthermore, there aren¡¯t many guests invited to the wedding today.¡± ¡°If it were me, I might not even want to invite anyone! Marrying a fool¡­ How embarrassing would it be if word got out in the future!¡± Bai Weiyang listened to the discussions in the crowd and laughed it off. Thankfully, the other party didn¡¯t come to welcome the bride. Then, she could treat this wedding as an important rehearsal in her life! First bow to heaven and earth, second bow to the parents. The Chief Commander had been busy at the borders of the warlords in the southeast and couldn¡¯t come back. Only Wu Su sat in the high hall with a gratified expression. Bai Weiyang and the ¡°groom¡± continued with the ceremony! She listened to the marriage witness read it out loud. ¡°A carriage between two families is a contract between two families. The good relationship will last forever, and they¡¯ll be called the same. Look at the peach blossoms burning on this day. It¡¯s suitable for a married couple. Look at the melons in the future, they will be burning with passion. I¡¯ll write the promise of a white-haired marriage down so that this marriage alliance can be embodied. This is the proof.¡± At that moment, Bai Weiyang truly felt as though a lifetime had passed. There were also people around who disregarded etiquette and whispered to each other, ¡°Military Governor said that he can¡¯t come back because he has something on. It¡¯s because he doesn¡¯t want to marry Bai Weiyang!¡± ¡°It would have been better if they had broken off the engagement. Now, they have to force themselves to marry this fool. It will be even uglier if they divorce in the future!¡± ¡°Maybe he doesn¡¯t want to leave his wife?¡± ¡°He simply has to marry a few more concubines!¡± The witness was extremely embarrassed. He pretended not to hear the gossip and shouted, ¡°The ceremony is complete. Send them into the bridal chamber!¡± Five minutes later. Bai Weiyang sat on the wedding bed. After everyone left, she immediately lifted the red veil and sized up the house for a moment. There was no one inside. The bed was covered with a dragon and phoenix quilt and a red brocade quilt. All kinds of wedding fruits were scattered on it. There were red dates, longan, dried lychees, red mung beans, and so on. There were also a few red packets. It was a joyous scene. Outside. Wu Su was extremely anxious. Who knew that the groom would run away on the day of the wedding! That young brat, Second Feng! How dare he disappear! Damn it. She smiled at the guests as she asked Er Mo, ¡°Is Second Feng still nowhere to be found?¡± ¡°Madam, not yet.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Chapter 31 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang took off the phoenix headgear that could crush her head and walked around. She even opened the window and secretly sized up the Military Governor¡¯s residence at dusk. The Military Governor¡¯s Manor was a typical Chinese Suzhou-style building! White walls and dark gray tiles, a brick-carved gatehouse. The ridges were high, and the walls were winding and hidden. There were two large ponds connecting the front and back courtyards with overlapping stone scenes and houses among the flowing streams! There were balconies, brick-carved gatehouses, and street buildings. There were white walls and gray tiles everywhere. They were row upon row, light, simple, and elegant. Bai Weiyang immediately felt a little emotional when she saw this. This was a typical Suzhou-style building! Moreover, the window in the room she was in was a typical Mingwa window! The windows were covered with paper before glass, an imported product, came into China during the Qing Dynasty. Only a few rich people would use a substitute for glass¡ªMingwa. Mingwa were not tiles. Mingwa were square sheets polished from clam shells with four rounded corners. A large amount of plate glass emerged In the late Qing Dynasty and it caused the end of Mingwa. The Mingwa were made of clam shells after all. The transparency and light intensity could not be compared to glass. However, when the sun was shining brightly outside, only a faint sunlight shone through the bright tiles on the wooden lattice window in the closed room, giving people the feeling of sunset. The concept was very beautiful. It was quite similar to the saying, ¡°Looking at the sky through the clam shells windows, the clouds and moon seemed beautiful and vague.¡± Bai Weiyang crossed her legs and sat on a rosewood with a marble inlaid chair. She began to eat the fruit pastries on the table and sniffed the wine in the wine pot. It was actually a top-notch Hua Tiao liquor! She couldn¡¯t help craving it, so she drank it. She drank until she was slightly tipsy. Then, she lay down on the wedding bed and fell asleep. She did not take this wedding seriously at all. *** Feng Songjie sat at his good friend Gu Changfeng¡¯s house, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. Gu Changfeng was Feng Songjie¡¯s good friend when he was studying in Germany. Gu Changfeng was not interested in military affairs and studied modern medicine! At this moment, he was holding a scalpel in his hand¡­ and cutting steak! Without looking up, he looked at the handsome man who was leaning against his sofa and reeking of alcohol. ¡°Feng Songjie, aren¡¯t you going back?¡± Holding a bottle of top-notch vodka in his hand, he asked as he drank, ¡°What for?¡± ¡°¡­The wedding.¡± Gu Changfeng¡¯s mouth twitched! He even asked him why he was going back. Was he so drunk that he couldn¡¯t think clearly? ¡°Does it concern me?¡± The man lying on the sofa turned around in a daze. His eyes, which had always been noble and arrogant, were filled with anger and unwillingness. ¡°The Qing Dynasty was already over! My parents sent all of us to study overseas, but yet they still arranged a marriage for me. Even if the other party is a fool! They still want me to fulfill the agreement! They only care about their own face. Who has ever considered for me!¡± Gu Changfeng pondered for two seconds and murmured, ¡°I understand.¡± Feng Songjie said angrily, ¡°What do you know!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Gu Changfeng pursed his lips. He was too lazy to explain to a drunkard. He could only change the topic. ¡°The political situation is unstable! Now that the warlords are divided, you actually don¡¯t have to focus on romantic love!¡± Feng Songjie sneered. Looking at the ceiling, his blade-like eyes suddenly narrowed. Swinging the wine bottle in his hand, he suddenly thought of something! Last month, Feng Songjie remembered that he had intentionally gotten drunk in Jin City because they had mentioned this betrothal. Then, he seemed to have done something with someone on the train, but¡­ he couldn¡¯t remember! His memories were so blurry that everything felt like a dream, but he was awake now. He knew that he had indeed¡­ slept with a woman! Damn it! Chapter 32 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations A melodious tune came from the old-fashioned gramophone. Gu Changfeng realized that Feng Songjie had suddenly stopped moving and thought that he was going to vomit. That was his new Belgian imported sofa. He could not let his horrible friend ruin it. Therefore, he asked nervously, ¡°What happened to you?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine!¡± Feng Songjie replied in a daze. Train tickets were sold two hours before the departure of the train. No one knew who they were sold to, let alone looking for the passengers on that day! However, it was already a fact that he had slept with someone. Feng Songjie was filled with hatred. He was drunk the first time he slept with a woman. At the same time, he hated¡­ that he didn¡¯t know who he had slept with! Although he had stayed overseas before, he was very conservative when it came to personal relationships! If he didn¡¯t meet a girl he liked, it was absolutely impossible for that to happen. Therefore, that blurry and realistic memory made Feng Songjie angry and depressed. Gu Changfeng did not understand what was wrong with him. He just pretended to remind him casually, ¡°You should know how angry Madam will be if she finds out that you ran away! The Military Governor¡¯s Office will definitely be mocked since you get Adjutant Yang to get married on your behalf! It¡¯s fine if he helps you with the wedding ceremony, but can Adjutant Yang drink with the guests on your behalf?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Feng Songjie stood up and glared at Gu Changfeng drunkenly. Then, he threw the vodka bottle aside and walked towards the door. ¡°Hey, where are you going?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you ask me to go back and drink with the guests?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Even so, Gu Changfeng still felt weird. Why did that guy suddenly become so obedient? When Feng Songjie appeared at the back door of the Military Governor¡¯s residence, Adjutant Li, who was waiting there, was so excited that she could cry. The front yard was in chaos. All the guests had been secretly mocking the Military Governor¡¯s residence and Madam because the Military Governor hadn¡¯t appeared! ¡°Sir!!¡± Adjutant Li wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. ¡°Madam is looking for you anxiously.¡± ¡°Mm.¡± Feng Songjie rubbed his temples and said as he walked, ¡°Let¡¯s go back to the study first.¡± Adjutant Li was shocked. Who did her superior talk to? Why did he suddenly become so calm? As Bai Weiyang had drunk some alcohol, she slept through. She regained consciousness when the sound of the door being pushed open woke her up. She was a little confused when she opened her eyes. She remembered the situation before she fell asleep when she saw all the red in front of her. Oh no! Wasn¡¯t this the wedding night? Why did she fall asleep? Now, it should be that cowardly Military Governor¡­ Hubby, you¡¯re back! Bai Weiyang knew that the other party had entered, so she could only pretend to be asleep. If the enemy didn¡¯t move, she wouldn¡¯t move! Feng Songjie had mentally prepared himself a hundred times at the door. He was already prepared to marry a fool and sleep in separate beds on his wedding night. However, he never expected this. His silly bride had already taken off her phoenix headgear and red veil and crawled into bed to sleep when he opened the door and entered. ¡°¡­¡± For a moment, he was speechless. He immediately wanted to turn around and leave. However, in the next second, there was a sound on the bed. ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Bai Weiyang deliberately made a muffled sound and pretended to hear the commotion. She sat up and turned to look at her newlywed husband. ¡°¡­¡± Hmm. Why did this man look a little familiar? Was she mistaken? Wait! It seemed to be the person from the Shadow Pavilion whom she had taken nude photos of. He was also the killer who assassinated Miss Byrd. Damn it, the other party had found her! Bai Weiyang narrowed her eyes. The atmosphere was tense. Chapter 33 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations How patient of you to chase me all the way to the Military Governor¡¯s residence on our wedding night! Bai Weiyang, who had always adhered to the strategy of not moving unless the enemy moved, simply pretended to be silly and adorable. She tilted her head and blinked her pair of clear black eyes as she looked at Feng Songjie innocently. ¡°¡­¡± Feng Songjie. He didn¡¯t expect this fool to turn her head and stare at him with such ¡°focused¡± innocent eyes. The two of them had met a few times at Feng Residence¡¯s banquet in the past, and every time, this fool would stare at him with infatuated eyes! Hence, Feng Songjie was afraid that the fool would suddenly pounce on him. He took a deep breath. He forced himself to resist the urge to leave. He pretended as if nothing had happened and said three words. ¡°You are awake.¡± Why did he say that?! Bai Weiyang was momentarily confused. Before figuring out the situation, she could only continue to stare at him with her large, ignorant eyes and say smilingly, ¡°Yes, yes!¡± On the chessboard, horses and carriages would go first1! Observe the enemy¡¯s movements before making plans! Bai Weiyang narrowed her eyes again in a daze when she saw his groom¡¯s attire. Tsk. Look what she found. He was wearing the groom¡¯s outfit! He even said, ¡°You¡¯re awake?!¡± To be able to enter and exit the Military Governor¡¯s residence freely, his identity¡­ was obvious. Could this fellow be the Military Governor? No way! Bai Weiyang was extremely shocked by this discovery. Then, she pretended to be shy and demure like a bride and called out in a coy manner. ¡°Hubby~¡± She was testing him, wanting to see his answer. As expected. Standing by the door, the aloof man closed the door. His entire body was suffused with an iceberg-like coldness as he glared at her with a sinister expression! ¡°I¡¯m not your husband.¡± Bai Weiyang cried out in her heart that he was really the Military Governor. At the same time, she blinked her pure black and clear eyes and muttered coquettishly, ¡°But we¡¯re married!¡± ¡°As long as they don¡¯t sleep together, they aren¡¯t husband and wife.¡± Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes flashed coldly as he said resolutely. Bai Weiyang had an infuriating smile on her face as she widened her eyes. ¡°Oh¡ªHubby, quickly get on the bed! I want to have a baby with you~¡± After saying that, she watched as the man¡¯s nose twitched in anger as though he wanted to kill her, but he was afraid of dirtying his hands. At that moment, Bai Weiyang was completely certain of one thing. This man was the one who had assassinated Miss Byrd, and he was also the Shadow Pavilion¡¯s¡­ Master! Who else could command all the Eagle Eye members of the Shadow Pavilion other than the Master?! Moreover, he had another identity on the surface¡ªthe mighty Military Governor of Jiangbei Province¡ªFeng Songjie! Bai Weiyang thought that if this man knew that she was the one who had teased him twice, he would probably immediately rush over to kill her and feed her to the dogs! However, tonight, her words were not as clear and sharp as usual. She was very coquettish and cute. Clearly, he did not realize that¡­ his newlywed wife was the mortal enemy he wanted to kill! Feng Songjie stared at Bai Weiyang. He suddenly called out. ¡°Bai Weiyang!¡± Bai Weiyang¡¯s heart skipped a beat. Had he discovered her? Otherwise, why would he call her that?! Bai Weiyang¡¯s slant eyes flickered with a dull expression. ¡°Yes, Hubby~~¡± Bai Weiyang was extremely nervous when Feng Songjie took something out of his pocket. Had he discovered it or not? She reached into her clothes, ready to take out her gun at any moment. Chapter 34 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Until Feng Songjie took out a piece of paper. ¡°You can read, right!¡± Paper? Bai Weiyang licked her lips adorably and said sweetly, ¡°Father asked Teacher to teach me and my sisters how to read ~ Of course I can read!¡± Feng Songjie threw the envelope over from afar. ¡°Then read the words on this piece of paper.¡± Bai Weiyang deliberately didn¡¯t catch the envelope. Otherwise, it would be easy for her to expose her agility. After the envelope landed on the ground, she got out of bed and picked it up curiously. She pouted and opened the envelope. ¡°¡­ What is this?¡± Bai Weiyang looked pitifully at Feng Songjie with tears in her eyes. The corners of her mouth drooped as she pointed at the big word on it. ¡°Darling, I don¡¯t know that word on it.¡± Feng Songjie¡¯s eyes were disdainful and cold. He said heavily, ¡°Contract!¡± ¡°Oh!¡± Bai Weiyang bit her finger nonchalantly and started reading. The way she read the letter was like a child learning to speak. Her watery eyes were wide open as she kept muttering, making Feng Songjie feel like he was playing the lute to a cow. He walked over and took the letter from her hand. ¡°Forget it. You don¡¯t have to read the rest.¡± ¡°No, I want to read it.¡± Bai Weiyang had already read the contents of the letter quickly. Wasn¡¯t he just going to sign a marital contract with her?! However, she still pretended not to understand and snatched the letter over. She continued to read the letter. Feng Songjie looked at her silly face. Her small, soft, and chubby face revealed two dimples. Under the contrast of the red wedding dress, she looked like a cute bun. If she wasn¡¯t a fool, she would be considered cute. She would pass as Feng Songjie¡¯s wife. Unfortunately, she was an idiot! Feng Songjie retracted all his pity and said coldly, ¡°As long as you¡¯re obedient, I promise that I¡¯ll find a good man who can take care of you for the rest of your life after we divorce in two years! I¡¯ll also give you a large sum of money to let you live safely until your next life!¡± Bai Weiyang was delighted, but she pouted and pretended to be aggrieved. ¡°H-hubby, don¡¯t you want me anymore?¡± Feng Songjie¡¯s every move was noble. His eyes were dark as he announced, ¡°In two years.¡± Bai Weiyang tilted her head in confusion. She was overjoyed! She could regain her freedom in two years! That wasn¡¯t bad. In the next two years, she could use the Military Governor¡¯s wife¡¯s identity to develop her own faction. In two years, she would probably be able to hold her own and not be restricted by Feng Songjie¡¯s power. Feng Songjie said, ¡°For the duration of the contract, both parties are not allowed to interfere with each other¡¯s private lives!¡± ¡°¡­¡± This was what Bai Weiyang was waiting for. Tears of excitement appeared on her face. Feng Songjie glared at her in horror, his lips curling up in disgust. ¡°Why are you crying?¡± ¡°I¡¯m crying that Hubby doesn¡¯t love me!¡± I¡¯m excited! I¡¯m touched! Both parties can¡¯t interfere with each other¡¯s private lives, hahaha! If this man knew that I am his mortal enemy, he would definitely not say this. Feng Songjie instructed coldly, ¡°Sign it.¡± Bai Weiyang cried as she pressed her thumbprint on it with teary eyes! There were two copies. Feng Songjie threw one of the agreements in front of her and left in a good mood with the other! It was as if he was the king who had left in triumph. Bai Weiyang was left alone in the new room. Pitiful and miserable¡­ It was as if she had been banished on their wedding night! Chapter 35 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Five minutes after Feng Songjie left, Bai Weiyang, who was sitting by the window, let out a maniacal laugh! ¡°Pfft! Hahahahahaha!¡± She hugged her stomach and could not stop laughing! If Feng Songjie knew that she was the culprit who had teased him twice in a row, he would probably immediately pounce on her and strangle her. Unfortunately, he knew nothing and even treated her like a fool! His enemy had brazenly moved into his house and become the Military Governor¡¯s wife! The person he was looking for was right beside him. No matter how she thought about it, this matter was hilarious! Bai Weiyang knew that Feng Songjie would rarely come to this new room in the future, so she began to unpack her luggage openly. She hid the precious camera in the depths of the mahogany cabinet and casually placed the gun and jade pendant in the drawer beside her. The most dangerous place was the safest place. After unpacking her luggage, she finally fell asleep. What Bai Weiyang didn¡¯t know was that when Feng Songjie left the new house, someone in the dark also left quickly! The side courtyard of the Military Governor Manor. The maidservant with two braids took advantage of the night and quickly ran into the courtyard. She pushed open the door and said happily, ¡°Mistress! There¡¯s good news.¡± In front of the glass mirror behind the screen sat a beautiful young woman in a dress. She wore a blouse with a low neckline, wide sleeves that reached her elbows. The cuffs were wide and fat. The hem was straight, and she was wearing a beautiful embroidered mamian skirt1! On her feet was a pair of scalloped shoes! She reeked of the afterglow of the Qing Dynasty. This was the Military Governor¡¯s Mansion¡¯s Third Concubine, Zhao Zhi! Third Concubine glared at her maidservant. ¡°What good news can there be!¡± Chunqin clenched her fists nervously and waved her handkerchief. ¡°The Military Governor entered the new room, but he only stayed for 20 minutes before leaving with a dark expression!¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Third Concubine stood up excitedly. Her dejected eyes lit up. ¡°Chunqin saw it clearly!¡± Third Concubine held on to her comb as she forced herself to sit down calmly. The gloominess of the day was swept away and her eyes were filled with smugness. ¡°During the day, I knew the Military Governor¡¯s intentions when I saw that he ask Adjutant Yang to replace him as the groom at the wedding. However, I thought he could accept that fool when I saw him appear during the toast! Indeed, the fool was banished in less than a day! What¡¯s so impressive about being the Military Governor¡¯s wife? It only sounds good!¡± Chunqin stood behind Third Concubine, combing her black hair. She was still grinning from ear to ear. Third Concubine asked as she looked at the beautiful face in the dressing mirror, applying the night moisturizer before bed. She closed her eyes and massaged the skin at the corner of her eyes. ¡°Is there no reaction from Yu Youwei?¡± Chunqin shook her head. Third Concubine could not hide the smile on her face. ¡°She¡¯s just a singer from the Heavenly Music Club who was brought back by the Military Governor! She really knows her place! She doesn¡¯t dare to fight us!¡± Then, she asked again, ¡°Did Second Concubine react?¡± Chunqin scratched her head. ¡°There¡¯s no reaction from her. She didn¡¯t send anyone to keep an eye on the marital bedroom, either. I wonder what Second Concubine is thinking.¡± Third Concubine pursed her lips and said, ¡°What else can she think? So what if she¡¯s Second Concubine? Look at her age. She¡¯s almost 30 years old. No matter how well she takes care of herself, she¡¯s like a flower that¡¯s starting to decline after blooming! She¡¯s already like a pile of smashed tofu! She still wants to compete with me for the Military Governor?¡± Chunqin nodded and said, ¡°Mistress, this fool is nothing to worry about! As long as the Military Governor likes you, we still have a lot of bargaining chips. When the time comes, he will promote you to be the wife. You¡¯ll be a couple with the Military Governor. Who will remember that there¡¯s a stupid wife in the Military Governor¡¯s residence!¡± Chapter 36 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations ¡°Exactly!¡± Today, because of the Chief Commander¡¯s wife¡¯s orders, it was best for the two concubines to stay in the room and not appear during the Military Governor¡¯s wedding! Third Concubine was filled with resentment. She would pay her respects to that ¡°main wife¡± tomorrow morning now that her displeasure had been swept away! After Feng Songjie received the agreement, he returned to the study. He sat on the chair and rubbed his aching temples. When Adjutant Li saw Feng Songjie appear in the study, she pushed the door open and entered. She felt some comfort in her heart, but on the surface, she looked like a loyal subordinate who was trying her best to persuade him. ¡°Sir, if word gets out that you spent the night in the study room on your wedding night, wouldn¡¯t it be a little¡­¡± Feng Songjie didn¡¯t even look up. He asked calmly, ¡°Who will know if you don¡¯t tell?¡± Adjutant Li smiled awkwardly. ¡°¡­ Of course I won¡¯t tell.¡± Bai Weiyang woke up in a daze early in the morning and saw a maid with braids carrying a washbasin in. She had a businesslike attitude. ¡°Young Madam, it¡¯s time to wash up.¡± Bai Weiyang sat up and stared blankly at her. She was still half-asleep, so she nodded like a dork. ¡°Oh.¡± ¡°¡­¡± This was the maidservant in charge of cleaning the courtyard. She knew that the Military Governor had married a fool, so she didn¡¯t give her a good attitude. Madam¡¯s orders were to help Young Madam get up and get dressed! However, she did not want to dress and wash up the fool at all. Before leaving, she added. ¡°Madam came over early in the morning! She said she was waiting for you to go over for breakfast.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Bai Weiyang continued to reply in a daze. The maidservant shook her head and left the room with a hopeless expression. Bai Weiyang, who was lying on the bed, continued to sleep. There were two maids whispering outside the door two seconds after she fell asleep. ¡°So what if she¡¯s married to the Military Governor? She¡¯s still a fool.¡± ¡°Stop it. It¡¯s not good to let others hear you.¡± ¡°She¡¯s just a fool. What does she know?¡± ¡°That¡¯s true. Everyone fantasizes about marrying the Military Governor, but in the end, it benefited a fool! Do fools have all the luck?¡± ¡°She must have gotten lucky!¡± ¡°I like the Military Governor too!¡± ¡°Who in the Military Governor¡¯s residence doesn¡¯t like the Military Governor? The two concubines and Yu Ji are all as beautiful as fairies! The Military Governor could still enter their rooms at the beginning and play chess with the concubines and recite poems. Who would have thought that the Military Governor would be tired of them in just a few days?! Those beautiful concubines aren¡¯t worthy of the Military Governor¡¯s attention, let alone us!¡± Bai Weiyang, who was originally very sleepy, suddenly became extremely awake. She cursed in her heart. Do they really think I¡¯m stupid?! These maidservants only know how to talk nonsense. If I gain power, I¡¯ll definitely teach them a lesson one by one. She got up, washed up, and dressed¡ª Half an hour later, Bai Weiyang came out of the room wearing a green long skirt. Outside, she yawned like a zombie and followed the maidservant. She walked towards the dining room. It was a few minutes¡¯ walk from the back hall to the dining hall in the front yard. Feng Songjie stood in the study on the second floor of the front yard, breathing in the fresh morning air and looking at the koi fish in the pond. Suddenly, he saw a girl with her head drooping behind the maidservant on the bridge¡­ She was a little unfamiliar. Wait, it was her! It was his newlywed Young Madam. She was indeed a fool. She did not have the demeanor of a noble lady at all! At the thought of marrying such an embarrassing Young Madam, Feng Songjie had an inexplicable urge to shoot her dead. Bai Weiyang had always been very sensitive to danger. She, who was dozing off as she walked, suddenly looked up in a certain direction. Her gaze met the window on the second floor. It was her new husband. She deliberately smiled and waved at him. Then, she watched in satisfaction as he left the window with his veins bulging. Chapter 37 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Bai Weiyang followed the maid into the dining room and saw Wu Su sitting there with a benevolent smile. Wu Su waved at her! ¡°Daughter-in-law, come and sit. Come and sit!¡± Bai Weiyang still looked sleepy. She yawned and even teared as she stepped into the dining room and sat beside Wu Su. There were already many breakfast dishes on the table. There were crab roe soup dumplings, beancurd rolls, lotus leaf porridge, lotus root rolls, quicksand dumplings, almond tofu, and white jade milk tea! It was simply dazzling. It was much more sumptuous than usual fare in the Bai Residence. Bai Weiyang¡¯s casual yawn was a crime that was worthy of the death sentence in the eyes of the maids and servants serving in the dining room. The person sitting here was the Military Governor¡¯s biological mother! She was a strict person. The day after their wedding, she called the bride over to greet her, but the bride just sat down the moment she arrived and even yawned the whole time. A fool was indeed a fool! Madam asked her to go over and sit, but she really thought that she was someone important? Everyone was waiting to watch the show. Initially, they felt indignant for the Military Governor when he had to marry a fool. He had worked diligently and conscientiously for the warlords of Jiangbei Province and the Pingnan Province, but he married a fool in the end! The servants all thought maliciously that they would be even more satisfied if the fool was kicked out on the first day! Wu Su held Bai Weiyang¡¯s hand. Before she spoke, she specially looked around at the servants in the dining room and said coldly, ¡°I want to say a few words to my daughter-in-law privately. You don¡¯t have to serve me anymore. You all can leave first!¡± While the servants were shocked, they all left the dining room and stood guard outside the door. Bai Weiyang rubbed her cheeks and began to eat the custard bun without any scruples. It was so hot that the corner of her mouth hurt before she blew on it. Wu Su had never seen such a carefree girl before, which was to her liking. They sat together as she said, ¡°How was your sleep last night?¡± ¡°Not bad.¡± An ambiguous answer! ¡°I know that brat didn¡¯t go back to his room! Damn it.¡± Wu Su was furious when she thought of this. Bai Weiyang was completely awakened by Wu Su¡¯s indignant expression. She really could not understand this woman. She called out softly. ¡°¡­Madam.¡± Wu Su¡¯s face darkened unhappily. ¡°What should you call me?¡± Bai Weiyang thought for a moment and said, ¡°Mother!¡± ¡°Good girl!¡± The little girl was unwilling. She pouted and her helpless tone amused Wu Su. Most of the young ladies pretended to be a well-bred young lady in front of her in order to catch her eye. They wanted to marry into the Feng Family and become the Military Governor¡¯s wife. Unfortunately¡­ their pretense was too disgusting. She had never seen a girl who did not know how to pretend in front of her! Wu Su could not help but sigh. ¡°I don¡¯t have a daughter. From now on, you¡¯re my biological daughter! Don¡¯t treat me like an outsider. I¡¯m a woman, so I can understand women! If you suffer any grievances in the future, send someone to tell me immediately! If that brat ignores you, I¡¯ll stand up for you.¡± Bai Weiyang almost choked on a mouthful of custard bun. She had never expected that she would get married as soon as she transmigrated. Although her husband was a little annoying, this mother-in-law was a decisive and straightforward person who was easy to get along with. Bai Weiyang grinned. ¡°Thank you, Mother.¡± Wu Su seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, ¡°Those two concubines are probably very difficult to deal with, but I believe that someone as smart as Weiyang can definitely deal with them.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Concubines! She had even forgotten that there were a few flies in the Military Governor¡¯s residence. Chapter 38 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were chatting amiably in the dining hall. Although the servants outside could not really hear the contents of their conversation, they were shocked to see Madam¡¯s warm, kind, and gentle face. Was this still the hot-tempered Madam? Was this still the Madam who always treated everyone coldly? Did the sun rise from the west? Why did Madam speak so gently to a fool? That fool was clearly very rude. The servants were all dumbfounded and scratched their heads. Until a sinister voice came from behind. ¡°What are you all doing?¡± After receiving Er Mo¡¯s personal invitation, Feng Songjie knew that he couldn¡¯t avoid it this morning, so he had no choice but to come to the dining room. Unexpectedly, from afar, he saw the servants leaning against the dining room window and stretching their necks as if there was something strange inside! Did his silly Young Madam make a fool of herself? When the seven or eight servants heard this, they suddenly turned around, and their expressions changed drastically. They shook their heads vigorously. Feng Songjie braced himself and glanced inside. He raised his eyebrows in confusion. He glanced at the servants again. There was nothing strange about the meal and conversation inside, so why were they all watching? Since he was already here, he had to have breakfast before going to the front office to work. Feng Songjie was expressionless. Pretending not to know anything, he stepped into the dining room. ¡°Mother! Why did you call me over so early in the morning¡­¡± Before he could finish his sentence, he realized why the maids and servants were desperately looking inside. His mother, who had a hot temper, actually sat with a fool and seemed to be chatting very well with her. What kind of scene was this? Had he seen a ghost? Feng Songjie was speechless. ¡°Why are you two sitting together?¡± Bai Weiyang looked up and greeted Feng Songjie with a silly smile. Feng Songjie ignored her. She was secretly delighted. Wu Su said straightforwardly, ¡°I¡¯m eating with my daughter-in-law. What¡¯s wrong with that?¡± Feng Songjie gasped. Based on his understanding of his mother, it was impossible for her to get along with a fool like Bai Weiyang. How could she sit down so calmly to eat? Or was it because his mother was showing her mother-in-law¡¯s kindness to a fool on the first day? Feng Songjie¡¯s mind raced. Wu Su spoke again. ¡°It¡¯s your first day of marriage. Don¡¯t dawdle. Although your father isn¡¯t around, we still have to sit together for a meal as a family! Sit down.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Feng Songjie choked and pretended to respect his mother. Without a word, he sat in an empty seat far away from the two of them. He wanted to see what his mother was up to. What was she trying to do? Bai Weiyang lowered her head and pretended to be a silly foodie as she ate her breakfast. However, Wu Su said, ¡°Second Feng, I heard that you didn¡¯t sleep in your bedroom last night. What happened?¡± Feng Songjie could not be bothered with his noisy mother and remained silent. Wu Su did not give him a chance to calm down. She put down the spoon in her hand and asked seriously, ¡°Could it be that you can¡¯t do it?¡± Bai Weiyang almost spat the milk tea she had just drunk all over the table. She endured the discomfort of choking and swallowed it forcefully, holding back her laughter. Feng Songjie¡¯s veins were bulging as he shouted, ¡°Mother!!¡± Wu Su did not care about his expression as she said, ¡°It¡¯s very likely that¡¯s the reason. After all, you took in two concubines and even hid a singer in a house out there. It¡¯s been three years, but I haven¡¯t seen any tiny brats pop up in the Military Governor¡¯s residence!¡± Wu Su¡¯s words made Bai Weiyang raise her head and look at Feng Songjie in surprise. She thought, Could it be that he really couldn¡¯t do it? Chapter 39 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Wu Su said fervently, ¡°Do you want me to get you some supplements? Tiger penis soup and deer penis soup are both good for boosting your masculinity!¡± Feng Songjie was besieged by his mother. He felt that his dignity had been insulted when he realized that the fool had tilted his head and was staring at him with his sparkling black eyes. Could this fool be suspecting him in that aspect¡­ Damn it! Feng Songjie said firmly, ¡°Mother! I can do it!¡± Wu Su looked at him with a strange expression. ¡°Then why can¡¯t your women have children? Don¡¯t tell me that all three women are infertile!¡± Wu Su had a ¡°you don¡¯t have to be embarrassed even if you cannot get it up¡± expression. Feng Songjie felt like he was about to explode. ¡°¡­¡± After suppressing his anger for a while, he stood up and said coldly, ¡°I¡¯m full.¡± He stood up and wanted to leave this infuriating place! Wu Su said lightly from behind, ¡°Sit down even if you¡¯re full. Your concubines are coming to pay their respects soon.¡± On the first day of their marriage, the concubines, who had a low status in the family just like the ancient times, had to pay their respects to Madam and Young Madam. If Feng Songjie was not around, what would it look like! Feng Songjie was forced to sit down and control his temper. ¡°Then you¡¯d better stop saying things that make people want to shoot you!¡± ¡°Tsk! Why do I have such a troublesome son like you?¡± Wu Su mumbled. Bai Weiyang was overjoyed when she saw the confrontation between the mother and son. Madam was simply the nemesis of this high and mighty Military Governor. However, she also knew that Madam wanted to have a good chat with this son, but unfortunately, Feng Songjie didn¡¯t appreciate it. Er Mo suddenly leaned forward and said, ¡°Madam, Sir¡¯s Second Concubine and Third Concubine are here!¡± Bai Weiyang lowered her head and frowned. Was it finally coming? Would she meet those gentle and cute little beauties? Wu Su waved her hand slowly. ¡°Call them in!¡± Bai Weiyang widened her ¡°innocent¡± big eyes and had a dumb expression on her face. She pretended to be extremely curious as she sized up the two ¡°young women¡± who had walked in. Forgive her for using this term to describe them. One of them looked like an older woman and was about 30 years old. She seemed to be only a few years younger than her mother-in-law, Wu Su. The other one had a slightly voluptuous figure and raised eyebrows. Her eyes were filled with charm. It was obvious that she was a shrewd and scheming person. Both of them were wearing matching jackets, skirts and pearl necklaces around their necks. ¡°Second Concubine Chen Qiushui greets Madam, Military Governor, and Young Madam!¡± ¡°Third Concubine Zhao Zhi greets Madam, Military Governor, Young Madam¡­ Greetings!¡± At that moment, Bai Weiyang glanced at Feng Songjie in confusion. She thought about the two concubines in the family who had different styles, should be little beauties who were not much older than her! Feng Songjie¡¯s tastes were really complex. She could not figure out what kind of woman he liked! Or could it be that he was like a stamp collector and had a hobby of collecting! He wanted one of every kind of girl¡­ Wu Su said, ¡°You have to respect and love Young Madam from now on! Do you understand?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The two concubines sized up Bai Weiyang respectfully. Wu Su reminded them warningly, ¡°She¡¯s the Young Madam of the Military Governor¡¯s residence after all!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± ¡°Sit down and eat.¡± Third Concubine Zhao Zhi had heard the maids¡¯ gossip before she came in. At first, she did not believe it when she found out that Madam was very happy with this new daughter-in-law, the two of them chatted warmly! Chapter 40 Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations However, after entering, Third Concubine was stunned to see Madam announcing Bai Weiyang¡¯s status in such a condescending manner. What was wrong with Madam? Why did she need to be so serious about a fool? Third Concubine subconsciously glanced at the Military Governor and realized that Feng Songjie was also looking down, like an old monk in meditation. She was completely confused. Feng Songjie naturally noticed that Chen Qiushui and Zhao Zhi were looking at him, but he was also very curious! His mother must be crazy! Everyone had different thoughts during this meal. Until the meal ended. Wu Su first said that she was going back to the Feng Residence, hoping that Feng Songjie would take good care of Bai Weiyang. Feng Songjie replied vaguely and sent Wu Su out. Bai Weiyang passed by the garden behind the small bridge when she returned to her room. From afar, she saw Third Concubine sitting there, looking like she was waiting for her to come over. Bai Weiyang pretended not to see her and continued walking forward when she passed by Third Concubine! Third Concubine was furious. She said angrily, ¡°Halt!¡± Bai Weiyang stopped and turned around. She looked at the charming and shrewd Third Concubine in surprise. She deliberately widened her eyes and asked casually, ¡°And you are?¡± Third Concubine frowned. ¡°Madam just introduced me. I¡¯m the Military Governor¡¯s Mansion¡¯s Third Concubine!¡± How stupid is this little slut? Her memory is so bad. Today, I¡¯ll teach you how to behave! Bai Weiyang took in Third Concubine¡¯s arrogant expression. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s Third Concubine!¡± Third Concubine looked at Bai Weiyang in disdain. She didn¡¯t even have a necklace or earrings. She was so shabby. ¡°Don¡¯t think that Madam is kind to you because she likes you! Don¡¯t rely on Madam¡¯s amiability to lord over this Military Governor¡¯s residence! You¡¯re just a fool. Do you really think you can sit firmly in the position of Military Governor¡¯s wife? Aren¡¯t you afraid of hurting your back?!¡± Bai Weiyang said nonchalantly, ¡°Sorry to trouble you. I¡¯m young and my waist is especially good! Third Concubine, be careful and don¡¯t bite your tongue.¡± ¡°You¡¯re quite eloquent!¡± Third Concubine narrowed her eyes and gritted her teeth. ¡°My tongue is also very nimble!¡± Bai Weiyang stuck out her tongue smugly. She even rolled her tongue three times to demonstrate. Third Concubine was so angry that she pointed at her nose and scolded, ¡°You little slut, if you really know the situation, stay in the house obediently in the future and don¡¯t come out to embarrass yourself! It¡¯ll save the Military Governor¡¯s Residence face.¡± Bai Weiyang pretended to be innocent and said, ¡°But I want to come out and bask in the sun.¡± Zhao Zhi was almost angered to death. ¡°Do you not understand human language?¡± She was really playing the lute to a cow. ¡°I understand. Unless Third Concubine isn¡¯t human. (*^__^*) Hehe!¡± Bai Weiyang was born to disagree with others. Third Concubine trembled all over. She pointed at Bai Weiyang¡¯s nose but couldn¡¯t say anything. Chunqin saw this. She hurried forward. ¡°Mistress, why are you stooping to the level of a fool? Just let her know that our status is higher than hers.¡± She took the initiative to stand up for Third Concubine. She widened her eyes arrogantly and said smugly, ¡°You fool, my mistress is the Military Governor¡¯s favorite woman! You better recognize this.¡± After sending Wu Su off, Feng Songjie, who had planned to take a stroll by the bridge in the backyard, happened to see this scene. He narrowed his eyes. Usually, he hated Zhao Zhi¡¯s appearance of complying on the surface but disobeying on the inside. However, today he was quite happy to see her bullying that fool. Feng Songjie was inexplicably happy. However¡­ Bai Weiyang noticed him from the corner of her eye immediately. Interesting! Her hubby had deliberately watched her get bullied¡­ Thus, she had no choice but to drag him down and retaliate against him as well!
