The Birth of a Villainess

Chapter 215 - The Lucky Bastard



Chapter 215 – The Lucky Bastard

Lin Xiaofei took the chance when his hands were lowered to push herself up and stood before the bed. She fixed her skirt that was slightly crumpled by Qu Xing Xu and felt hot after remembering how his hands easily touched her skin.

Clearing her throat and averting her eyes, Lin Xiaofei turned around and put on her middle clothes once again to cover herself. Although it was already too late since he had alreadyseen her in her inner clothes a few times already.

"Speaking of our marriage. There's only two days before that day. I hope you didn't forget about it." Qu Xing Xu watched her change as he said this.

Her hands paused as she raised her head to look at him. She went silent before she said, "… Of course."

"You forgot about it, didn't you?" He accused and was in disbelief.. "Xiaofei, if you dare to try running away from our marriage after taking advantage of me. Don't even think about it! I won't allow you."

The days he spent in the middle of the sea, he mostly spent his time thinking about his wedding that would soon arrive its date. Just seeing her standing before the heaven, wearing their red wedding clothes, and bowing down as part of the ceremony, it was enough for him to let go of his duty and rush back to the capital. He would rather wait inside his room idly instead of being on the ship surrounded by men.

Seeing the way his eyes continued to darken, Lin Xiaofei quickly subdued his ire as she touched his forearm, "I'll be honest and tell you that I forgot about it. But that didn't mean that it didn't cross my mind these past few days. There's a lot of matters that cropped up and I simply couldn't ignore it."

Hearing her say this, Qu Xing Xu calmed down. Her tiny and soft hand that was holding his forearm was smooth and cold to the touch yet it brought out a fire inside him.

Gulping down the desire to hold her in his arms again, Qu Xing Xu patted her head before saying, "I know. Don't worry about these things. Although the royal family could threaten your Lin family but they wouldn't be able to do anything to harm your grandfather again. I won't let them do that this time."

He already assigned several guard secretly hiding away in the shadows around the courtyard of Lin Xiaomeng. These guards were part of the Blood Corps, the cream of the crop of his own personal army that he and his grandfather created to protect the Qu family.

"Your grandfather might be subjected to several threats that the royal family will flung in your way but they're merely words. You can ignore them. Don't be afraid of them and let me take care of this." Qu Xing Xu reassured her as he already knew that Lin Xiaomeng was someone dear to Lin Xiaofei.

"That's alright." Lin Xiaofei shook her head and refused, "Actually, I already have a plan and it's already taking its course."

"You have a plan?"

"Otherwise?" She raised her eyebrows to which Qu Xing Xu chuckled. He forgot that when she's not being taken advantage of by him, she was a venomous woman that would eat a human whole and spit out their bones.

"Alright. I'll let you do what you want then." Qu Xing Xu sighed and sat down down on the chair, "Just ask me if you need more people. I'll let you use mine to do some errands."

"Thank you. But there's no need to use your men." She refused once again and took a seat.

Qu Xing Xu smirked as he replied, "Then, just let them stand by and order them when you have no one around you. You can order them to buy flowers or dresses if you lack some."

Buy flowers and dresses? Lin Xiaofei smiled at him. How could she possibly let his armed forces to buy these trivial things. Although it would be interesting to see these muscled men to buy flowers and shock the shop owner to death, it wouldn't be good for their reputation as deadly soldiers.

Putting her palms on the surface of the table, she leaned forward and smiled, "Rather than them buying me flowers and dresses, I'd like a certain someone to order around instead."

Qu Xing Xu raised his eyebrows,his eyes filled with mirth and doting, "Oh? And who's this lucky bastard? May I see him so I could personally congratulate him?"

Lin Xiaofei rolled her eyes at him. She was frustrated at him. He obviously knew who she was thinking but he chose to play and pretend not to know that she was talking about him.

"Stop the nonsense, Your Grace." She chose to call him that rather than his name. Qu Xing Xu was visibly annoyed at this but he was the one who caused her to say this.

Sigh… he wanted to punch himself now.

"Well, since you already said this much. Please give me the pleasure to know what you want me to do." Qu Xing Xu was resigned as he wanted her to call his name again. "In exchange, you must never call me that ever again."

Lin Xiaofei replied with a smile, "Alright."

In the afternoon, Yu Xuan Li arrived at the palace and went straight to meet his younger sister. When he entered her inner courtyard, he saw that his mother still hadn't left even after staying there for a day and frowned.

"What are you still doing here, mother?" He asked his mother.

Concubine Min ducked her neck in shame and averted her eyes from her son. She understood the underlying meaning of his question. Why was she still in her daughter's residence when she should be waiting in her own courtyard for the emperor to come and visit her.

But how could she when the emperor no longer takes his time to notice her?

"I'm taking care of your younger sister. I'm worried that someone evil will come to hurt her again." Concubine Min told her son and quickly changed the topic, "Have you taken the antidote from the Lin family? Your younger sister's been suffering from a severe cold. She can't wait any longer."

"I know, mother." He took a pause and looked at the bed where a figure was thickly covered with several quilts and his frowned turned deeper with concern.
