《Villainess Series 1: Bullying the Male lead》20: Vase
Advertisement
"My lady, why are you staring at the vase?"
I swear after I return to the real world, I'm going to have a PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder). Thumbs up to all those transmigrators who succeeded on their missions to survive. Because if my sister witnessed how this duck had stopped trembling when the knife was held on my throat, scaring me sh!tless; she will smack me to death.
'Coward!'
"Are we going to see His Highness Nan King?"
Li Han didn't lie.
One week had passed since the kidnapping incident. The bandits used a fainting gas or powder that made my guards knocked out on the spot. Only Lu Kai was severely injured. He was fast enough to cover his nose and the only one who stayed awake to fight all those bandits. The blood I smelled was his. And in the end, Lu Kai was defeated and was severely injured.
I heard the bandits were all mercilessly killed by the male lead himself. But the leader escaped, making Li Han irritated for days. He ordered his soldiers to search the entire capital and other nearby provinces. He even set a monetary reward offered to whoever catches or provide any information about the wanted criminal.
The male lead was determined to have the head of the wolf man. So brutal!
"Yes, my lady."
"Then, I choose this vase. Don't forget to bring it."
I heard this vase had such a good quality. It was even exported from the West. Hmm. I think I need to start collecting vases from now on. Jin'er looked at me with curiosity but she didn't ask anything.
Upon returning to the manor, the Bai couple was shocked when they saw me, shamelessly rubbing my snots all over the cloak of the fourth prince.

When the male lead told them that I got kidnapped, I don't know if they're genuinely alarmed or what– but they doubled the security inside and outside of the manor.
"My lady, this- this.. can we keep it? This luxurious fabric made of refined colored silk is the most popular according to the noble ladies in the capital. If you make it into a hanfu, I'm sure all those ladies will have their heart burst in jealousy. Especially if they found out, this is given by His Highness Nan King."
I looked blankly at her. I'm so glad that nothing had happened to this babbling girl. My head throbbed listening to all of her amusing imaginations. Jin'er was now more convinced that the male lead is my prince charming.
She.. must be crazy!
"His Highness Nan King must really like you, my lady!"
I choked. The tea from my mouth burst out— straight to her face, wetting her comical face. Jin'er only calmly wiped her face with her sleeves, seemingly used to things like these.
'*cough* Jin'er, stop saying such terrifying things!' *cough*
My personal maid sighed and turned to the other servants. "You, move everything. These beautiful and expensive jewelries, these exquisite fabrics and oh, also these precious paintings.. Move them. My heart ache seeing them."
Wiping my lips with my shöùpa, I asked. "How's the hospital?"
"Oh. Everything is settled my lady. The physicians from Xuanxiang Hospital wanted to send their regards to you my lady." Jin'er grumbled.
"Lu Yi, make sure nothing is amiss. Secretly, sell them to the Kanxi market. Then as usual, send the accumulated money anonymously to the orphanages."
Lu Yi bowed. "Yes, my lady."
The only good thing about being the daughter of the Prime Minister was.. I am currently unbelievably rich. I've never been this rich!

Aside from my monthly large allowance, the other noble families and including the other royal family members wanted to get a connection with the Prime Minister House, so they sometimes send luxurious things to me— the most favored daughter. It only temporarily stopped after the crown prince was executed.
But when the other noble families found out that Bai Suxin- was still a big candidate to be the new crown princess, the unending gifts resumed.
'This devious people.'
Back in my world, I barely have any savings. With all the taxes, rents and bills?.. In just a snap, bye bye money.
"My lady, I know you're kind and generous. Still, you are a noble. You have the rights to lived an extravagant life."
"In the future, when my lady becomes the crown princess, you can help more people. It will be the empire's blessing."
'What blessing ah?' I put the teacup down. I'm afraid that I might spit the remaining tea on her face again. He-he.
I know I'm going to die in three weeks. You know how long I've waited? I'm preparing my death for almost five years okay. If I can save a life with these corrupted material things, why not used this opportunity to do good deeds?
Actually, I'm not really acting out of character. I'm pretending that— I'm just pretending that I'm using the sentiments of the common people. 'Gets? Ahh!! So confusing!'
As the green-tea villainess, I'm just pretending to be a goodhearted and kind person. Anyway, I'm sure the male lead thinks that I'm not sincere at helping the people in need.
"Jin'er, the vase." I reminded her.
Remembering that the female lead already made her comeback yesterday as the goddaughter of Right Prime Minister Xu Zhang, my eyelids twitched.
The plot was like these: Xu Zhang went to Jinling Mine for inspection. Coincidentally, Chu Wanwan saved this old man from the collapsing mine. 'What-a-hero!'
Grateful, Xu Zhang who was known as the most loyal man to the throne; took Chu Wanwan back to the capital. Xu Zhang begged the emperor to let the female lead be his goddaughter and be pardoned from all of her crimes. And because this is a novel, Emperor Li Hai agreed.
'Peh! Your father!'
Chu Wanwan is the enemy princess! Where's your logic people?! Aren't they afraid that the female lead will use this opportunity to avenge her motherland?!
