Villain Lady Chapter 57

Wei Hong furrowed his brows. "Are you sure he'll be willing to help?"
"I'll find a way," Wei Xiao Hua replied. There was a proud smile hung on the corner of her lips that couldn't be seen because of her veil. However, the brilliant light on her eyes that was brimming with confidence was visible for all to see.
The crowds were stunned when they heard what Wei Xiao Hua said. Even though they had heard that the Fourth Prince doted on First Miss Wei, it was nothing but rumor. But hearing how Wei Xiao Hua seemed to be so confident in asking for his help, they couldn't help but think that the rumor must be true.
If not, Wei Xiao Hua's confidence was unexplained.
Only Wei Hong Zheng was still glaring daggers at Wei Xiao Hua. He knew very well that the two of them couldn't meet eye to eye since his status still often be better than Wei Xiao Hua because of his gender. There would be no way Wei Xiao Hua would be willing to help him voluntarily.
Wei Hong nodded, feeling much better. "In that case, I'll trouble you, Xiao Hua."
"Yes, Father!"
"But Father…"
"Don't say anything more," Wei Hong said sternly to his son. He looked at the boy who wounded his son. "Whether you're innocent or not, you'll stay in prison for questioning. Don't hope that you can escape if you did this intentionally."
"Please have mercy!"
However, Wei Hong didn't want to see them anymore. A few guards hauled the boy away while his mother was crying buckets. However, the crowds didn't show any pity whatsoever as they felt that the incident was fishy too.
Wei Hong thanked the crowd for bringing the news to him and helped to bring his son back home. He also gave the doctor a large sum of money for his endeavor in helping his son to get the first aid that he needed.

"Liuying!" Feng Chun noticed that Wei Liuying had come out. She ignored her pale face and weak appearance as she strode forward. "Can't you do something?"
Wei Liuying looked at her mother with a confused and worried expression. "Mother, what are you talking about? I don't even know what happened. I only heard that Second Brother was hurt, so I came here in a hurry."
It was then the crowd saw Wei Liuying. Some of them had heard that she was sick the day before, but they didn't know the details. Now that they saw her, they could see that she was truly sick.
Only Wei Xiao Hua was looking at Wei Liuying with a hint of malice within her eyes.
"This…" Feng Chun was at a loss.
She couldn't possibly reveal to the crowd that the one who helped her scheme was her daughter. How shameful would it be? However, it was also the truth that her daughter was much smarter than her, which gave her more benefit in the residence, especially when it was regarding Wei Hong Zheng's matter.
Wei Liuying looked at Wei Xiao Hua. "Since First Sister is already willing to lower herself to ask help from His Highness the Fourth Prince, we must thank her, Mother."
Feng Chun was obviously unwilling, but under the state of her husband and the crowd, she had no other choice but to utter the thanks. Her heart felt like it was pierced, but she had no words that she could possibly say in this situation.
"T…Thank you, Wei Xiao Hua."
Wei Xiao Hua was still looking at Wei Liuying, but she turned her gaze to look at Feng Chun. "It's nothing, Madam Feng. I'll surely do my best."
Feng Chun's smile was ugly, but she couldn't say anything else. Wei Hong was unhappy to see Feng Chun being ungrateful like that. In his opinion, she should be happy that Wei Xiao Hua was willing to help. "Thank you for today, everyone. It's already late, so I can't possibly invite you all to the house."

"It's fine, Prime Minister Wei."
"We're happy to help."
They exchanged some pleasantries as the crowd dispersed. Wei Hong Zheng still wanted to speak, but he noticed that Wei Liuying was sending a warning glare. He clamped his mouth shut unhappily as his eyes were staring at Wei Xiao Hua with clear anger.
Wei Xiao Hua watched them with amusement. If not for the veil covering up her mouth, they would be able to see the smile that she hid there.
The way she watched everything looked as if she was only watching a play in front of her.
It was as if the matter didn't involve her in the slightest bit.

Lost In Translation
If you're one to travel the roads, you may have heard of me. You may have heard my Names in the stories, the songs, and the whispers of the road. Perhaps you've even seen me during my travels, speaking to a bird of blue light, or on a city street, performing small acts for coin and repute. Or perhaps you may know me as the Skystrider, who walked with the wind. Or the Voiceless, a man of song without speech. You may know me as the Tutor, who taught the Lion of Summer how to fight, or the Traveler, who has walked all the roads of the earth. I am all of these things. And people have branded me a myth. But people don't understand what a myth is. They haven't heard the songs lost to our tongues, nor have they seen the things I've seen. They haven't gone to the places I've gone. My feet have walked the plains, the seas, and the clouds. I have spoken languages unspoken; tongues lost to time. I have sung to the earth, held the moon in my arms, and walked the roads that your heroes hesitate to even mention. I have outwitted Demons. I have danced with the Fae. My songs have been heard by lords of wind and ash, and my steps have echoed in the bellies of gargantuan beasts the likes of which you have never seen. These are what real myths are. And me? I'm no legend. I'm just the bard stupid enough to poke the real ones with a stick. Discord link here. [Disclaimer: Book 1 of this story will likely be published in KU by around the start of 2022, so please keep that in mind. Book 2 and onwards will continue here until they are published as well.]

The Fundamentals
You hear of many tales out there. Some depict worthy heroes wielding tremendous power, noble personas that fight to save the lives of their close friends, family, and all the rest. Good triumphs over evil, that is simply the way the world works, no? While this premise is something inherent to nearly all stories, what exactly the heroes used to attain success can differ greatly. Perhaps they've trained themselves to the limit, pushing past boundaries nobody else could hope to achieve. Others still, have merely inherited the grand legacy of another legendary being, but what they have done with such a legacy would cause their names to be passed on for generations. Rowan is one of the heroes who have ventured beyond the horizon, tempering themselves on a perilous journey all the while and succeeding in attaining strength beyond measure. However, in an unexpected turn of events, this strength caused him to tear open and fall through a hole in the realm he resided in. Now he has ended up in a completely foreign realm, whose inhabitants utilized strange powers that eclipsed his own. Fortune would smile upon him this day, however, as he discovered that they were not hostile, and even offered to teach him their ways. Rowan could see that this was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and eagerly accepted their invitation to learn what would come to be known as: The Fundamentals.
