Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 127: Jiang Ying Yue (34)

The other girl said it in a very relaxed and natural manner. Yet conviction was there. She was extremely serious about it. Apart from that, when Jiang Ying Yue looked at the other provocatively, there was an indistinguishable aura on her which would remind anyone of a tigress. Fierce. Dangerous. Territorial.

'Chen Wang is mine.'

'Even if he's not yet mine, I won't give him to anyone!'

'I'll make him fall for me. I'll make him only look at me! I'm confident I can do it!'

Jiang Ying Yue's voice rang in her mind with these words. Sheng Lingxin was that stunned upon hearing Jiang Ying Yue's declaration. Because no useless courtesies and flowery speeches were included in her remark, it sounded so blunt, leaving no room for any other interpretation apart from what was intended to be conveyed.   

'Is this really that meek and delicate woman who tried to take her life in that grand chamber?'

The prime minister's daughter watched the abandoned first miss of the Jiangs sipped on her tea so elegantly. Her action and smile exuded grace that not even rags would be able to conceal. She was the game's protagonist. And she had chosen the general, Lu Ling as her future husband. 

Sheng Lingxin's head was filled with countless thoughts, heart drowning in resentment. Deep inside her, she was blaming the woman. If not for her, Chen Wang would have stayed longer in the capital last year. And he wouldn't be away for so long. Thinking of the whole year Chen Wang spent with Jiang Ying Yue at the border, she felt so envious, yet helpless. Why couldn't he just be Jiang Ying Yue? Why was she Sheng Lingxin?

"Don't look at me like that Miss Sheng." Suddenly Jiang Ying Yue said, unnerved by the glare she was getting.

Still in her fit of jealousy, the female lead unconsciously blurted out, "I don't like you."

The marshal's daughter laughed. "I know. If I am in the same situation as you, jealous of a woman you thought not worthy of the man you liked, I'll also say I don't like her."

"Since you know you are not worthy of Chen Wang, why are you..." Midway, Sheng Lingxin stopped. Even though she could hear her own heart break into pieces, she realized she had to stop saying whatever was in her mind. Because she had no right to command the other to stay away from the general or stop loving him. 

Knowing this, Sheng Lingxin could only say one more time,  "I really don't like you..."

Jiang Ying Yue looked away from the unsightly face of the famed daughter of the prime minister. That face that would burst into crying anytime soon was so painful to the eyes. She chose to look into the darkening skies outside. 

"I heard what you wanted to say to me. At the same time, I think you already confirmed what you wanted." After a long moment of silence, Jiang Ying Yue said. May I excuse myself now?"

She simply couldn't stand the uncomfortable feeling anymore, being in the presence of someone crying over her man. Because of this, she favored leaving as soon as possible. 

When no reply came to her, she conveniently took it as the other's yes. She stood and then walked towards the door. Upon crossing it, she gave Sheng Lingxin one last look and then met up with Xiao Lu outside. This day became very memorable to her. She not only met her sister and former fiance, but also the prime minister's daughter who, when she was leaving, had given her a menacing look. 

'I'll pray this Miss Sheng knows her limit and understand she's already someone betrothed to another man.'

As she held Xiao Lu's arm and walked down the street leading to Chen Wang Estate, she thought of the tea and snacks laid out by Sheng Lingxin's maid. 'I really hope she knows what's best for her. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that my gu won't act up and kill her if she does something beyond what I can tolerate.'

...

The two girls didn't know that fifteen minutes later, whatever they had talked about had already reached Jiang Li's ears. Hai Wang was also informed since when the messenger popped up beside the general, he allowed the imperial prince to hear about it.

As expected, the latter's face turned dark. It was remarkably concealed, but given Jiang Li's rich experiences from his three lifetimes, he still managed to see the rage and disappointment swimming in the male lead's eyes. 

Jiang Li laughingly said, "Hai Wang better put a rein on that woman, or choose another fiancee."

The other man did not reply. Jiang Li wondered if it was because he was already thinking of his suggestion or still taming the rage within. 

A minute later, Hai Wang spoke, "I thank Chen Wang for your advise. However, I think we better not involve an inconsequential topic like that in our talk. More than this affair, I'm more inclined to praise you for managing to train a capable person like that one earlier."

Jiang Li looked at the male lead and admired that this guy, despite being confronted with something sensitive as this, still managed to keep a straight face and focused more on something that really mattered. 

He also kept a straight face and replied, "Hai Wang is teasing me. My messengers are only so-so. I'm sure you have many people more capable than him. That one just seemed astounding for his speed of relaying the information, but actually, he's only fast because my future Wang Fei is involved."

'What future Wang Fei?'

This time, the second prince could no longer help but sneer. "Lu Ling, you seemed to be forgetting your identity and hers."

"The reason I'm supporting Your Highness is that I know the current Emperor will not approve of it." Jiang Li indifferently said, leaning against the tree. 

Chen Heng seemed offended, but asked in a joking manner, "So any imperial prince will do?"
