Chapter 41 She Was Ruthless and Heartless
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The breeze was gentle in the afternoon. It was not summer yet, but people could already feel warm. A beautiful, pure, and slim woman held a bowl of food cooked with medicinal herbs in her hand. She gently pushed open the bedroom door of Master Feng.
Nianxin dismissed all the servants. She wanted to take good care of her father-in-law as his daughter-in-law in private.
The woman wore her charming smile again when the door closed. She became more enchanting. She put the bowl on the table and walked to the stool in front of Master Feng's bed. Nianxin sat down. Her tone was ironic, which was incompatible with her soft and weak voice like breeze.
"Old General Feng, you must have never expected that you would get into such a mess."
The old man in front of her couldn't speak. He couldn't even raise his hands. A week ago, he was gray-haired. However, now he was a hoary-haired old man. Looking at him, Nianxin smiled and continued.

Villain Princess Chapter 42 Young Master Wu Shuang
Yunfeng College was a school in the Empire of Yun named after the imperial family name, which could show how high the college's social status was in the empire. It was built by the former king's elder brother, Lord Yun Feng, who was the most gifted scholar in the last generation. This gifted scholar always stayed away from the political world and only loved cultural knowledge. However, it was a pity that his health condition had been bad since he was a child. At that time, King Yun had not succeeded to the throne when he passed away without marrying a wife, let alone having a child.To commemorate this rare scholar, Yunfeng College was preserved by King Yun. It became a place training talents for the empire. Many children of noble families came here because graduates from this college would gain higher social status. This place was also a starting point for many gifted but poor students to fulfill their dreams. Of course, it didn't mean that people had to study in Yunfe
Villain Princess Chapter 43 Outraging the Public
After listening to Wu Shuang’s self-introduction, Wei Ruxuan said immediately, “I’m Wei Ruxuan. I’m also a new student at Yunfeng College. Thank you a lot for your help just now.”“It’s okay. No problem.”“I really appreciate that, Young Master. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know how to get away from them.”“Stop calling me Young Master. We’re classmates now. Ruxuan, just call me Wu Shuang!”“Okay, Wu Shuang.”“Then let’s go through the admission formalities together.”“Okay, but...”Wei Ruxuan hesitated, feeling a little embarrassed. He looked way beyond messy. His clothes were torn by the robbers and hung on his body in tatters. His luggage was also taken away. With this kind of outfit, he didn’t even know how to walk into the college. Wei Ruxuan was not expecting to run into Wu Shuang again. Luckily, Wu Shuang, who was clearly dressed up, didn’t change his nice attitude because of Wei R
Villain Princess Chapter 44 School Bullying
Wu Shuang took out his handkerchief and wiped the stain off Wei Ruxuan’s face. He was as gentle as a beam of sunlight in spring. Along with his movements, he said, “Ruxuan, don’t mind them. Let’s have lunch together.”“Wu Shuang, leave him alone.”“Wu Shuang, come with us!”“Wu Shuang, why are you so into him?”“Why? Why?”...With Xuan Zhi here, the students didn’t dare to mess up with Wei Ruxuan anymore, but they kept throwing questions at Wu Shuang.“Because he is Wei Ruxuan, but you are not,” cruelly but still gently, he said. He took Wei Ruxuan to a corner of the cafeteria and sat down, sharing his meal with him.For the rest of the day, Wei Ruxuan was accompanied by Wu Shuang. He didn’t suffer too much, but even if Wu Shuang was away for one second, someone would take the chance to bully him. He had been tripped, poured water on, thrown things at, and cursed with dirty words
Villain Princess Chapter 45 Attempted Suicide
Of course, Wei Ruxuan might look stupid, naive, or stubborn; however, he never gave up. Whenever he had the opportunity, he would go to the teacher asking for help. Deep in his heart, Wei Ruxuan was still waiting for someone to bring him justice. Wu Shuang didn’t say a word because he knew that the boy would never grow up and have a strong mind if he didn’t suffer.Wei Ruxuan’s persistence had irritated many. Eventually, his classmates even wanted to beat him to death. Wu Shuang’s protective attitude had already made them jealous and sour, and it was almost impossible to reason with these impulsive young men.Once again, Wei Ruxuan went to the teacher’s office. And as always, he was avoided. But this time, something was different. After he left the office, Wei Ruxuan was surrounded by a flock of students. Knowing Wu Shuang wasn’t around, some of the leading students decided to take the great chance to finally put what they had been planning into practice.
Villain Princess Chapter 46 Going Back Home
On the carriage back to the Prime Minister’s Mansion, Wei Ruxuan gently looked at Wu Shuang, who wore white clothes and the simple pearl hairpin, with a pampering look that even he himself didn’t realize.“Wu Shuang, are you sure that you don’t want to stay at the college?”“Yes, I’m sure. That’s such a filthy place. I never wanted to devote myself to the official career anyway.”“Then where do you plan to go?”“I haven’t figured it out yet. I’d probably just wander around.”“In that case, please come back home with me.”“No, thanks. I worry that your wife might be jealous.”“I don’t have a wife.”“Wu Shuang, come back to the Prime Minister’s Mansion with me. I’ll protect you and take care of you for the rest of my life. I won’t let anyone hurt you.”“But I’m a man, Ruxuan. Aren’t you afraid that people will judge you if you stay together with me for your whole life?”

It was said that the murderer was an assassinator from the Kingdom of Kong. However, when he was found, he had already killed himself and left no further clue at all.It was actually a long story.In the solemn, elegant Prime Minister’s Mansion, there’s a dark, abandoned little courtyard sitting in a remote corner, totally incongruent with the warm atmosphere.

A man’s miserable screams came from the only house near the yard w

Thank you, Prime Minister Wei.”“Please excuse me, for I need to go. Please don’t bother to walk me out, and I promise to ask Xuanxuan to come here and apologize in person later.”Prime Minister Wei was finally relieved and left the Bu’s house after settling down the engagement. He was not anxious to go back home to see what his son was up to anymore. It seemed that he had to break his son’s heart. That man called Wu Shuang could no longer stay with them.

Prime Minister Wei looked at his son, who’s supposed to be the happiest groom. However, his son was still acting like a stranger with a poker face.

We have plenty of time for you to get used to it.”Shui Yinzhu didn’t say a word. Her Zhi had always been a silly man in front of her. She kissed on Xuan Zhi’s lips.

Speaking of the empress Shui Yinzhu, people all recognized her as the personification of a succubus. She was so charming like a vixen whose glamour in innocence could attract everyone around her.
