Transmigration: The Fate of the Villainess

Chapter 17: What an idiot Part I

That day Bai Yu’s magic returned along with her memories. It was as if her memories were also sealed away by the poison. The former Bai Yu’s thought process, schemes, and strategies were returned to her as well...Though the worst thing for her was the love and hatred that came back in full force.

These things...they were so violent.

In her former life she was a Buddhist, so temples had always been the place she turned to in time of worry. In this life, her feelings and thoughts were conflicted. What was happening to her? What did fate want from her? All her questions never met an answer.

Bai Yu moved the scheduled day to visit the ancestral temple closer. She did not listen to her mother’s objection that she should rest for a while longer. Something in her told her that she needed to go there as soon as possible. Not to meet Bai Hua, but to act on her premonition!

Many nights after she had transmigrated, she dreamed of a place. At first, she was puzzled by the recurring image, but eventually felt soothed by that dream when time went by. That was why she did not think much of it enough to worry.

Bai Yu at that time was focusing on regaining her magic back. Now that she was successful, the image in her dream became clearer. It was an ancient temple somewhere. She guessed that it might be the Bai family’s ancestral shrine since it would not be out of the ordinary for a daughter of the Bai family like her to frequent there.

But there was something strange...

.....

“Benwang will go with you.” That person only said that then got into his carriage and led her cavalcade until they safely reached the ancestral temple.

Bai Yu tried to find the reason that Ouyang Wenrou stubbornly insisted to go with her. Finally, after wracking her memory she could recall that...

When Ouyang Mingxian was injured, he contacted Ouyang Wenrou after he had fully recovered. The younger brother then traveled together with her to meet with his older brother, using an excuse that he was going to heal the villagers in that area.

When the two brothers met again, the female lead would then become the cause of their blood feud. Ouyang Mingxian fell in love with Bai Hua because she was an intelligent woman with unique abilities, typical of a transmigrated heroine. As for Ouyang Wenrou, he would become closer to Bai Hua after they exchanged knowledge about healing magic with each other, leading to him feeling admiration for her.

From here on would be the opera scene starring the male lead, the female lead, and the secondary male lead for the villainess to watch.

“Blessings to Wei Wang from Hua-er.”

Bai family’s ancestral temple was not far from the capital. Still, it was located in a forested mountain so a trip there would take almost over a day. When they arrived at the temple, Bai Hua in a simple white attire was already there to greet them. Her pretty face without a touch of cosmetics was still radiant. When Wei Wang saw the face of the person who sent the secret letter about third brother to him, his heart skipped a beat.

So, it was this frail woman who saved his brother’s life? Everyone said she was magic-less, but even though she was seen as a useless woman, she still could nurse Qin Wang back to health.

Interesting.

“No need for formality.” Ouyang Wenrou said with his usual kind smile. Today he wore white like always, making him paired very well with Bai Hua when standing beside each other. The image made Bai Yu automatically thought back to her former life.

One looked like Song Lianhua. Another looked like Li Wenrou. She had to use almost all of her tolerance!!

“Wang Ye is probably tired from your travel. I have already ordered people to prepare a room for you.”

“Thank you, Miss Bai.”

“Aiyo...” Bai Yu made a surprised sound to interrupt the conversation in front of her “...It seems that third sister has already forgotten about jiejie.” She slightly lifted her chin as she glanced at the heroine who had intended to ignore her from the start.

Bai Yu knew that Bai Hua had changed, that she had enough magic to go up against her, and that she was brave enough to confront her. Still...you have no right to ignore me!

“Jiejie had to endure such a grueling trip to come see how third sister is doing...” She smiled at her sister before turning to tease the handsome nobleman who came together. “...I might have to blame Wangye for this, then. Your Highness is so dashing that you make my sister forget all about me.”

“First sister, you’ve misunderstood...” Bai Hua was forced to finally acknowledge her.

“Then why did third miss not greet first miss at all?”

Before Bai Hua could continue, Xiao Xi interjected to remind her of her own position. Bai Hua’s gaze turned aggressive for a brief moment, but since they were in front of a royalty, she was forced to mind her manner. Finally, she curtsied to greet Bai Yu.

What a fake heroine!

“Benwang will go on to treat people in the next village. Would the two Miss Bais mind?” After the two sisters greeted, Ouyang Wenrou then immediately used an excuse to go meet Ouyang Mingxian.

“I do not dare. Farewell from Hua-er to Wangye.” The smart heroine understood his meaning straight away, while Bai Yu faked being oblivious. She curtsied as farewell along with her younger sister and both waited until the carriage went out of sight.

Bai Yu walked past Bai Hua into her residence without saying anything else. In fact, she was quite displeased with Bai Hua’s action, but she also knew that Ouyang Mingxian was still here. If she created a conflict with Bai Hua, that male lead would surely know, or even appeared to help her.

Furthermore, Ouyang Wenrou could also return at any time. Bai Yu could only keep her resentment to herself.

Let those three meet first. The two Wangyes would have many matters to discuss. When Bai Hua was not needed and left them, then she could order servants to bring Bai Hua here to teach her a lesson!

That night, Bai Yu had Xiao Xi investigate whether Bai Hua went out or not. Her puppy did not disappoint. Xiao Xi reported that someone saw Bai Hua left with a maid, while another was inside her room in the temple.

“Miss, first Furen’s people requested to see you.”

“My mother’s? Are they male servants?”

“Yes, miss.”

“If there’s anything, have them pass the message to you. There’s no need for them to come in to meet me.” Although it was a secret meeting, she did not want to risk her reputation.

Xiao Xi left the room not for long before she returned. She said that first Furen’s people had been keeping an eye on Bai Hua for several days. She often went to find herbs outside of the temple’s vicinity and meet up with people from neighboring villages. Tonight, she left her room, making it a prime opportunity to act.

Yue Mei planned to have a male servant disguised himself as a mad man and abducted Bai Hua for a night to destroy her reputation. Then Bai Hua would have to be sent back to the mansion and married to one of the merchants in the capital as a concubine. Originally, she intended to use a villager as a witness, but since Bai Yu was already here, she would be a better choice.

In the series, the plan was thwarted because of Ouyang Wenrou who came to Bai Yu’s rescue. Still, it made the female lead hold a deep grudge toward Yue Mei, and she would cause a scene by accusing Bai Yu and her mother of made-up crimes in front of Bai mansion the day she returned.

Bai Yu hurriedly sent Xiao Xi to Bai Hua’s residence to notify her that she would visit. If Bai Hua had not left her room for too long, then the news would make her maid call her back, and Bai Hua’s rushing back would then keep her safe from Yue Mei’s trap.

That’s right. The villainess was hindering her mother’s scheme!

Before Bai Yu could escape from fate, she first had to get her mother away from the line of fire that was the new Bai Hua’s hatred. Yue Mei did not know what the transmigrated heroine was capable of. Furthermore, she could not stay to protect her mother forever. If a day came that Bai Hua’s resentment grew, Yue Mei would be paid back in full.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

“First miss is here. Third miss, please open the door.” Xiao Xi banged on the door after she had come to notify one ke ago. Inside was quiet. Bai Yu nodded to her maid to continue.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

“Third miss, please open the door!”

The room was still silent, though beneath was not as calm as it seemed. Xiao Xi pressed her ear against the door and after listening for a while then turned to whisper to her while suppressing laughter.

“It’s Xiao Zi inside, miss. She seems pretty anxious.”

Bai Yu grinned, satisfied that her maid thought Bai Yu intentionally came to trouble Bai Hua. The villainess said to her four temporary maids that were sent to accompany her at the temple.

“Force your way in.”
