Villain Lady Chapter 84
Advertisement
Wei Liuying walked aimlessly in the large villa. She had seen the layout, but there were several places that she hadn't visited because she was too busy going around in the outer area. Now that she was annoyed and needed a place to rest, she freely roamed around the villa.
It didn't take long before she arrived in the edge of the building. There was an unused storage room not far from her while the kitchen was not far ahead. Some servants were there, but they were quite far enough, so whatever Wei Liuying said, they wouldn't be able to hear it.
Huo guessed correctly, she was angry at her father.
"You can neglect me, scorn me and even curse me as you wish, but now you want me to marry a man thrice of my age just because of your old friendship?" Wei Liuying muttered under her breath. Her eyes were gleaming in clear annoyance and displeasure.
Wei Liuying raised her head and laughed coldly. Her black eyes were staring out of the window not far from her. it was directed to the garden where there were a lot of young masters were still fetched back from the forest. Many of them chose to venture deeper in order to get better result.
If only she was 'present' in this place, she would have confronted her father and refused him in place.
But would he even listen?
Wei Liuying had long known that her father parents would be the one to decide her marriage. The possibility of her marrying old officials was there, so she knew about it. But what made her extremely annoyed was that her father didn't even try to talk with Feng Chun nor tried to consider other option.
It was not like she had to get married so soon.
And yet he decided in a hurry as if he was worried that the other party would reject in a moment of impulse.

It looked as if he was already impatient to discard her because he didn't think she had any use. At the same time, he didn't care where he discarded her to because the end result would be the same.
In other words, Wei Liuying was no different than trash in her father's eyes.
"Originally, I only plan to leave when there's no way out for me in the residence," Wei Liuying said slowly in a low voice. She had prepared enough money, and she knew that she could easily become a young master if she wanted with just a change in her clothing. As for Xiao Qing and Xiao Yu, they would be disguised in a completely different way.
At first, she only prepared that plan because she knew that she might not be able to accept her father's arrangement.
Marrying a person thrice her age…
Does he want her to be a widow so young?
Wei Liuying shook her head and turned her gaze back to the main hall. "But now, it wouldn't be pretty if I didn't leave any gift for you, Father. Right, Father?"
Her black eyes seemed as if it had turned even darker. "I was never a good girl in the first place. And if you ended up forcing me in this path, I'll not hesitate to make my move."
After muttering that, Wei Liuying stayed still in her place. There was distinct aura around her body that made her look unapproachable. Fortunately, no one was there or they would be thinking that there was something terribly wrong with their young master as Wei Liuying was still dressed as Wei Hong Zheng.
After a few breaths' time, Wei Liuying left the place and returned back to the hall.
…
Wei Hong was still talking with his friends. However, the number had already increased to three. When she came near, her face darkened a bit upon hearing their conversations.

"Ah, you're trying to court the third young miss? She's indeed pretty just like Feng Chun, but she's stupid."
"What's the use of smart women? She'll only stay as the lower ranked concubines for all I know."
"True."
"In that case, you can also consider me if she rejects Old Mu."
"Scram! It's impossible for her to reject me. Just think about how you can coax Feng Chun to agree."
"You're correct."
They all have serious faces as if the content of their conversation was something grave. However, Wei Liuying could only feel black lines appearing on her face. When did her reputation fell so deep that she could only resort to these old men to consider for her own marriage?
When???
Just as Wei Liuying was thinking for a way to break their conversation while trying to keep her expression normal, the door was opened and the staff quickly announced, "His Highness the Third Prince, Prince Ji Sheng and Strategist Yang is here."
Everyone quickly bowed down in front of the prince. It was the normal courtesy that they had to show in front of the Imperial Family.
Ji Sheng strode into the hall in unhurried pace. His cold face swept across the large hall with indifferent gaze. He had received report that there was a misfire arrow and that they were tasked to investigate it.
"You may rise."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Everyone returned back to stand up while Ji Sheng started to talk with some officials there. As Wei Liuying was standing far away, she couldn't hear what they were talking about. What she knew was the fact that the officials' faces turned black upon hearing what Ji Sheng said.
"No!"
Some of them rushed out of the hall.
Wei Liuying frowned and focused her eyes on Ji Sheng's lips. It was hard to make out what he was saying, but she could guess a few words.
'Ji Shu… interrogate… sons…'
All of a sudden, Wei Liuying felt chilly wind around her face. She raised her head and noticed that Prince Ji Shu had walked in. He was looking at Ji Sheng with traces of amusement. "Why don't you tell them blatantly in front of anyone that their sons are interrogated and locked away?"
The temperature reached freezing point.
It was common knowledge that Prince Ji Shu's way of interrogating might even turn them into cripple.
It was scary.
Ji Sheng shrugged. "Isn't it better that only they know the bad news rather than spreading it to anyone unrelated?"
Ji Shu snorted. That was what Ji Sheng said, but it was actually just an effort to make sure that they were not scared. Ji Shu himself didn't worry too much as it was his intention to make them fear him.
That way, they would think twice before harming those whom he considered his own.
Wei Liuying looked at the two princes with indifferent expression. She understood perfectly that Ji Shu would not let her off because of what she had done to Wei Xiao Hua. However, since he didn't manage to catch her, he unleashed his wrath on the young men who saw Wei Xiao Hua.
Very ruthless.
This was his way to make the perpetrator feel guilty and make a mistake. But would Wei Liuying make a mistake?
No.

RELEASES EVERY MONDAY AT 18:30 CST ----- After suffering the torments of slavery, the destruction of his nation, and the massacre of his band of brothers, Rodion Kazansky craves revenge and yearns for the freedom owed to him as a proud Cossack. A lost horse and a chance meeting with the Catherine the Great set him off on a journey that will take him from the steppes of the Crimea to the beaches of the Gold Coast of Africa and back again. There he will face British slavers, pirates, and the ghosts of his past to become the bane of his enemies as the Czarina's Buccaneer. ----- DISCLAIMER: This novel acknowledges the fact that the Cossacks, and the Ukrainian people by extension, are unique and not simply a "different variety of Russians." The main character views the Russians as "moskal foreigners" and does not see himself as one. This also acknowledges the fact that the czarina deprived many of the Cossacks of their freedom, something that the main character resents.
