Villain Lady

Gao Ling looked at the chopstick that she was holding. Due to her martial arts, she could hear what Wei Xiao Hua and the rest were talking about. Those girls didn't even try to hide their conversation as they bantered with each other and enacted that disgusting act. If not because Gao Ling knew the real Wei Liuying, she would surely believe what they were saying.     

Besides her, Shi Lu Wen's expression was not any better. She looked to the direction of the three young ladies because her sitting position was opposite from Gao Ling. Even though she didn't learn martial arts, she still could hear some of their sentences that they shouted out loudly.     

"Sister Gao."     

"Yes?"     

"Can I concoct a medicine then handed it out?" Shi Lu Wen asked with a bright smile on her face. Somehow, she truly wanted to teach those girls a lesson for trying to tarnish Wei Liuying's name.     

Wei Liuying was already declared as 'death.'     

And yet, they couldn't let her off and still used her name to make things even worse. Shi Lu Wen couldn't accept things like this. She wished that she was capable of beating them all up so badly to the point that no one could possibly recognize them anymore. If not, then let her poison them.     

There were more than enough herbs in her current possession to poison them. While it might not be able to kill them directly, she would be able to make them suffer for a long period of time.     

That was easy.      

Gao Ling tapped the table and snorted. "In that case, let's just confront them and have fun."     

"Eh?" Shi Lu Wen was stunned.     

She did say that she wanted to poison them, but she didn't expect that Gao Ling would truly make a move. Before she could say anything else, she saw Gao Ling put down the chopsticks.     

After saying that, Gao Ling walked to the other table in an unhurried manner. She was looking at Wei Xiao Hua's direction as if she was wishing the other party to die. However, her amicable smile didn't leave her face in the slightest bit. It was as if whatever they saw was nothing more than an illusion.     

Wei Xiao Hua raised her head.     

The novel did tell her that Gao Ling would come to her with a bit of malicious intent. It was uncertain why and the real Wei Xiao Hua would think that it was because of the rivalry of their fiancé. After all, Wei Xiao Hua had never interacted with Gao Ling before.     

'The description in the novel is inaccurate.'     

Looking at Gao Ling, Wei Xiao Hua felt that it was no longer just a bit of malicious intent but instead, it was a load full of malicious intent. It was as if Wei Xiao Hua was her biggest enemy and Gao Ling would never let her off no matter what.     

But even now, Wei Xiao Hua never knew the real reason for Gao Ling's hostility. In the novel, there were some speculation that the readers made but the stingy author didn't reveal the answer at all.     

She felt like shaking that stingy author for answer so many times.     

(A/N: why did you have to call the author stingy so many times, ah?)     

"Is there anything that I can do to help?" Wei Xiao Hua asked with a bright smile. When it came to concealing her real thoughts, she was also capable to do the same thing.     

"I'm just thinking that since this is no longer late at night, I should start to introduce myself," Gao Ling replied in a soothing tone. She looked at the two of them. "Gao Ling, the only daughter of General Gao."     

Wei Xiao Hua smiled. "Wei Xiao Hua, the first daughter of Prime Minister Wei."     

They would usually use the position of their father as if they wished to compete who has the best position. After all, both of their father were accomplished in Han Shi Kingdom despite the difference in the field.     

Gao Ling looked at the fake Wei Liuying. "And this?"     

"Wei Liuying, the third daughter of Prime Minister Wei," the fake Wei Liuying replied.     

Hearing the introduction, Gao Ling resisted the urge to not stomp on her and shouted lies. She knew full well that the real Wei Liuying was with them, but she couldn't tell anyone about this matter because of the restriction that Yang Xian told her.     

Wei Liuying couldn't live as the prime minister's concubine daughter anymore.     

If only she didn't care for her image and the fallout between two families, she would not hesitate to make a move. However, the teaching that she had from young had taught her that violence couldn't solve everything.     

There were many matters that shouldn't be solved with fist.     

"Have you finished eating?" Gao Ling asked and pointed to the empty plate. She felt that Wei Xiao Hua was truly a fast eater.     

In truth, Wei Xiao Hua was quick to eat because she knew that there would be trouble soon. If she faced it with empty stomach, it would be the same as torturing herself. She wouldn't want to do that.     

"Yes."     

"In that case, would you like to have a walk? We can get to know each other that way," Gao Ling offered with a smile on her face.     

Wei Xiao Hua smiled back. "Of course."     

The two of them looked like they could kill each other immediately, but they still held smile on their faces. The others were confused about this development, but they had no other choice but to follow them.     

"Would this one come along?" Gao Ling asked with an amicable tone. However, the cold glare she used when looking at the fake Wei Liuying seemed to be able to pierce through the hardest steel.     

It was as if she wished to bury the fake Wei Liuying to death.     

The fake Wei Liuying was tongue tied. Looking at the scary aura that Gao Ling emanated, she couldn't say anything. Everything that she wanted to say was stuck inside her throat, unable to come out in the slightest bit.     

'What should I do?'     

She was nothing more than a little girl that Prince Ji Shu found in the red district. Compared to the noble young ladies who were already used to the hidden threat beneath everyone's tongue, she was more used to the covert flirt talk. It was practically useless in this kind of situation.     

Wei Xiao Hua smiled and spoke out quickly. "Would you mind if I bring my Third Sister along, Lady Gao? She's a poor child who didn't have many experiences outside and might be able to learn something from us."     

If one didn't know better, they would think that Wei Xiao Hua was such a kind sister. Even though the fake Wei Liuying treated her harshly, she was still treating her sister so politely and even gave the other a chance.     

However, Gao Ling knew that it was nothing more than an act.     

Seeing Wei Xiao Hua made her disgusted, but she chose to swallow everything that she wanted to say. She shouldn't create unnecessary troubles without proper preparation. There was no need to rebuke Wei Xiao Hua harshly.     

"I wouldn't mind."     

Wei Xiao Hua smiled. "Liuying, follow me."     

"Yes, First Sister."     

This time, the fake Wei Liuying couldn't do anything but to play the role of a good girl. She felt terrified from the bottom of her heart, yet she couldn't say anything. Internally, she wondered if Gao Ling hated the real Wei Liuying because of the way Gao Ling treated her.     

If Wei Xiao Hua heard what the fake Wei Liuying was thinking, she would have rolled her eyes.     

While Wei Liuying used to be famous as the useless girl, there was no way Gao Ling would have heard about her. There were a few other useless concubine daughters in the capital city because not everyone was bestowed with great skill.     

Still, Wei Xiao Hua was also curious as to why Gao Ling showed such hostility to the two of them.     

Gao Ling looked at her own group. "Soldier Ying, Soldier Du, you can stay a bit further. And Lu Wen, come with me."     

"Yes!"     

Shi Lu Wen patted her bag lightly as she walked over. She had brought a lot of medicine inside her small bag which would be more than enough to poison someone if it was necessary.     

Somehow, she couldn't wait for the chance she awaited to be able to harm Wei Xiao Hua for doing so much to Wei Liuying.     

"These two…" Du Min didn't know what to say. They knew what these two were thinking because they have been here for some time. However, it was impossible to utter it out because it would be impolite and revealed Gao Ling's real intention.     

Wei Liuying put down her chopstick. "How foolish."     

"Yes?"     

"If they want to make a move, they should have done that using a completely different method," Wei Liuying replied.
