Villain Lady Chapter 68
Advertisement
Wei Liuying kept her composure as if she didn't hear anything. However, her fist was tightened a bit more. As she had expected, Yang Xian recognized her even with this outfit.
Wei Liuying eyed Yang Xian, but she didn't try to engage in conversation with him. She knew that he wouldn't expose her because there was nothing that he could gain from doing that aside from getting another enemy. Based on her understanding about Yang Xian, he would not do something so stupid.
However, this would mean that he had gained a card that he could use against her if he wanted to.
How troublesome.
Putting the thought to the back of her mind, Wei Liuying strode out. She could see Huo from the side. Huo also noticed Wei Liuying and quickly came over to her direction.
"Let's go back first. There's no other classes in the afternoon."
"Yes, Young Master."
Wei Hong Zheng himself also didn't like to stay in the library for too long because he couldn't catch up with the intelligence of many students there. He would only feel that he was severely lacking whenever he was listening to those students. Even though his age could give him a bit of leeway, he was still quite lacking compared to many other boys around the same age.
Wei Liuying chose not to think too much about it. She was not interested in her second brother's problems too. As long as she acted like him and passed by the three days' hunt safely, it was all more than enough. She could care less about anything else.
When she came back to the residence, she headed back to Wei Hong Zheng residence. "I have returned, Second Brother."
"En," Wei Hong Zheng acknowledged it. He was currently reading a book that Teacher Luo asked him to study.

"Second Brother, do you know about First Brother's relationship with Xie Jing and Prince Ji Shao Yang?"
"Xie Jing?" Wei Hong Zheng furrowed his brows. "That man is a troublemaker even in Prime Minister Xie's residence. It's always said that he's a failure of the family, so I think that my brother gets close to him."
"So you know, Second Brother?"
"Well, they occasionally study together. I don't understand why a failure like him would even get close with First Brother."
Wei Liuying's lips twitched. In private, Wei Hong Zheng would not mind his speech that much and usually became more unrestrained. Also, she knew that Xie Jing was known as troublemaker, but that young man's intelligence was still far higher compared to normal people. He was quite a formidable person in Wei Liuying's opinion.
The one who was actually closer to be a failure was the young man before her…
She would never say this out loud, though.
Besides, he was still young, so he still has a lot of rooms for improvement. If he was diligent enough, he might be able to accomplish something big in the future. Who knew what will happen in the future?
"Is that something important?" Wei Hong Zheng tilted his head. "I don't really have any friend that's close with me, so it shouldn't matter that much even if you act as me."
"It's nothing much, Second Brother. I'll take my leave."
"Ok. I won't see you out."
As Wei Liuying slipped out of the residence, Wei Hong Zheng turned his head to look at Huo, who was standing silently on the edge of the room.
"How did it go?"
"It's good, Young Master."
"Do you think there would be anyone who suspect her?" Wei Hong Zheng asked nonchalantly.

Huo was silent for a moment. He had seen when Wei Liuying acted as Wei Hong Zheng before and it would be a lie if he said that he didn't feel the chills. The way Wei Liuying acted so naturally make him afraid of her. She looked nonchalant and arrogant, the perfect copy of Wei Hong Zheng as if it was already part of her nature.
"Huo?"
"I don't think anyone will suspect her unless they got close enough," Huo replied.
Wei Hong Zheng turned his eyes back to his book. "Then make sure no one can get close."
"Yes, Young Master."
Returning back to her own residence, Wei Liuying stretched her body and changed her clothes. Even though the men's robes were simpler, she still preferred her women clothing. After all, she was still a woman at heart.
"Miss, can I follow you tomorrow?" Xiao Qing asked with worried tone.
Wei Liuying shook her head. "You should stay here and take care of everything. If I didn't come back from the hunt, you should be leaving too."
Xiao Qing was taken aback when she sensed that Wei Liuying had slipped a slip of bamboo to her. She had learnt how to read and write in the past because she wanted to help Wei Liuying.
"Read this when you're absolutely alone," Wei Liuying mouthed out.
"Yes, Miss."
Wei Liuying smiled. "Good girl. I don't have the plan to leave during the hunt, but just in case, you two need to take care of yourself."
"Yes, Miss."
Xiao Qing felt her heart was heavy after hearing what Wei Liuying said. Her eyes were reddened as she looked at her Miss, but she still obeyed. After all, she knew that no matter what she said, she would still follow what Wei Liuying said.
After settling that, Wei Liuying sighed and returned to her bed. She lied on top of it and looked at the ceiling.
Hopefully, nothing will go wrong in the hunt.
She needed to come back in one piece to finish her final preparation in order to ensure that she could bring both Xiao Qing and Xiao Yu out safely with her.

A Sky of Star and Strength
Jake was just an intelligent kid living a pretty regular life in Mill Creek, Washington. Then the apocalypse happens. Now with his Dad out of the country and totally in yet out his element, this is his story. My take on a system apocalypse based around "life force" as a currency. The main character will have a special power (as will most of the other characters) and be rather OP, you have been warned. Like many of the authors on this site I have no formal writing experience so writing tips and grammar corrections are much appreciated :)

Rooms of the Desolate
Rooms of the Desolate is a collection of short stories designed to guide the reader through the many rooms and mysteries of the bleak and greyscale labyrinth of the Desolate. The first entry, "The Forever Tower" follows an unnamed wanderer climbing an endless, colourless tower; the only world they have ever known. As they slowly ascend alongside the masses, they consider the nature of their world and look to the corridors as temptation beckons. The second entry, "Production Line", follows an engineer in a boundless factory, who encounters a product that does not wish to bow to the overseers and makes them question their belief in the truth and duties they were made to believe. Content guidelines: Current entries do not include explicit profanity, but future entries may do so, hence the presence of that tag. Some entries do include gore and violence, though not currently to particularly extreme degrees. The Desolate is exactly that: a desolate world; as such, it is bleak, downtrodden, and may deal with mental struggles. Cover art credit: Adam Borkowski on Pexels.

Aeternalis
One born of nothingness. A world born of everything. To return all to nothing. Or surrender to everything. A man born into an infinite world, trying to find his path to the top. Trials and tribulations come from friends and foes alike until all bow before him. ------------------------------------- Author here! This is my 3rd story on RoyalRoad, the other two having long since been dropped years ago. They were a mess of ideas and had no real substanence to them, leading me to begin hating writing them and eventually just stop writing altogether for about a year and a half. Finally, after reading hundreds of thousands of pages of novels, from low fantasy to sci-fi litrpg's to thousands of pages long xianxias, I finally feel ready to write a real story that isn't a cesspool of ideas blended together. I plan to see this out to the end, as I already have the first few major arcs planned out unlike my other stories where I thought of ideas as I wrote. This story takes place in a world with a litrpg system, as per tags. This isn't a VRMMO or Reincarnation story. The main character exists in and is from said world. There are some differences from other litrpg's which will be explained in author notes in the few few chapters. I plan to publich 6-7 chapters a week, each 2-3k words long. If i fail to do so I will create a back-log I have to eventually make up but as of writing this it's the summer for me so I'll have plenty of time to write. Enjoy, and welcome to the world of Aeternalis.
