The Birth Of A Villainess

Chapter 209 - Are You Lost?



The next day.

The sun bright shone and the sky was clear. The streets and main rods were cleaned from the previous day's dirt. And everyone was preparing to start a new day.

Inside the Lin residence, Lin Xiaofei just got up after sleeping late last night. She couldn't sleep even if she wanted to as her mind kept on thinking about a certain arrogant duke who was missing for several days now.

Her letters were sent to him but somehow, a reply still wasn't delivered in her hand. It was as if she was sending letters to an inexistent individual. Hence, after sending her last letter two days ago, she no longer bothered to send another one. Let that man rot and never bother her again!

But still, Lin Xiaofei couldn't help but worry about him. It has been several days since he left yet no news or words were heard about him. Even his people in the capital didn't contact here and Jimo didn't appear in front of her ever since that day in the palace. Everyone seemed to be too busy to come to her.

Shen Mo was also preoccupied and had all his attention to his task of gathering as much gold as he could! He couldn't even bother to come and guard beside her. He only returns whenever he needed to deliver the bag of gold in the middle of the night and take another empty bag from her.

That unfilial child!

Chu Chu also busied herself in supervising Kael's studies. Ever since the two of them met each other, they started to hit it off and even forgot that Lin Xiaofei was now staying in the Lin family residence.

Suddenly, there was a sense of loss in Lin Xiaofei's heart. It seemed that after they were done with her, they all went to do their things.

But in truth, it was just that everyone else was too busy and Lin Xiaofei was too bored to death having nothing to do. The servants were too busy with the arrangements of her wedding and since she didn't know what to do about this wedding she will take part in, she became more lazy and laid back, very unlikely to what a normal bride should be.

'Achoo!'

Her squeaky sneeze rang again inside her room. She rubbed her nose and felt her eyes a little bit watery. Her eyes sparkled when the light hit her and it made her look delicate and fragile.

After freshening up and changing clothes, Lin Xiaofei intended to go to her grandfather's courtyard to check up on him when she was almost there, she saw several figures standing before the courtyard.

"Please forgive my rudeness. But my father's unwell and won't be seeing anyone." Lin Feng's voice rang clear and loud in front of the courtyard.

He was clearly speaking to the three figure standing before him.

And from the look of it, these three people wanted to meet her grandfather without respect.

"First Master Lin, please don't make this hard on me. I am only here to see General Lin out of concern. And I also have something urgent to tell him." A good-looking man said with a respectable smile on his lips but the ridicule in his eyes were something that Lin Xiaofei noticed first.

She recognized this man from her previous life. It was Yu Xuan Li.

"Please don't block me anymore Fifth Master Lin. We shall go inside." He continued and raised his foot to step forward.

Just as he was about to force himself inside, a petite figure appeared in front of him and blocked him.

Yu Xuan Li frowned and glared at the figure but his eyes widened at the sight of the beautiful young lady before him.

The young lady wore a fiery dark red dress that would look crude if it were worn by others. But seeing this dress on her, she looked like she wasn't from the mortal world but instead, from a world no one has ever explored and only in their dreams.

Her plain red dress somewhat looked like it was on fire. She had a porcelain white skin that was almost comparable to the coldest white jade and her black long hair that was flowing behind her back. Her lips were effortlessly red and her face devoid of make-up.

Beautiful…

Utterly, beautiful without a doubt.

Her elegance seemed to ooze out from her body and her slightly narrowed eyes were sparkling as if stars were inside it. But deep hidden there was a blackhole pulling everyone with a promise of death.

If Yu Xuan Li didn't pursed his lips, he would hear himself gasping in delight at the sight of her.

However, the young lady before him was glaring at him with rage in her eyes.

"So early in the morning yet someone actually dares to barge inside the Lin residence, destroying such a beautiful day." Lin Xiaofei coldly said.

"How rude! Don't you know that the man before you is the Fifth Prince?! Kneel down and show your respect!" The eunuch behind the prince rudely shouted at her.

How could Lin Xiaofei not know of him.

In her past life, Fifth Prince was not as active and they didn't have much interactions aside from that one time in the past. However, Lin Xiaofei was still considering not to take care of this young prince.

And yet, someone was already courting their own death early in the morning.

"Ah… It is the Fifth Prince after all. And here I thought some bandit came barging in my Lin residence and was about to call for guards." Lin Xiaofei's voice sounded so soft and sweet just like how her face but her words cut others like a unsheathed sword.

"Please do forgive me." She bowed down slightly to show some respect to the prince as per the custom. However, she suddenly said after, "But I still don't understand why your highness seemed to think that one could easily get inside the Lin residence. Are you perhaps lost after drinking last night and thought that this is your highness' residence?"
