Transmigration: The Fate of the Villainess

Chapter 19: Who the heck...? Part I

Bai Yu was not an unreasonably cruel person. If there was an injured person in front of her, she would not hesitate to help. But this time, she was tempted to just let this foul-mouthed man die.

“Hurry up, you fool. My magic was suppressed by poison. I need you to heal me.”

Bai Yu ignored his weak plea and stood up. Now that she looked more closely, she could see that he was a tall man wearing black clothing like the assassins she had seen often in Chinese period dramas. Half of his face was covered by a black mask, revealing only a part of his chin and his sharp mouth.

Hmph! She would never help him.

“With that kind of mouth, you should just bleed to death.” She grimaced at the man before stomping her feet and walking away. But before she could move, her ankle was grabbed once again, making her fall for the second time.

“Ahh....Umph!”

“Quiet!”

.....

She screamed and struggled in an attempt to get away from the stranger. His large, bloodied hand came to silence her as he gave an order. Though his hoarse voice was weak, the authority in his tone could make her keep still immediately.

“Stay still if you don’t want to die.” Bai Yu defiantly glared back. The speaker’s voice was close to her, and she could see his eyes even with his half-mask on. She was surprised by his strange eyes that seemed to be white, like a fogged-up window, resembling a blind person’s eyes.

Her irritation waned when she realized that the man seemed to be blind on top of being injured. Bai Yu lay still and rested her head on the arm that was covering her mouth. Her waist was hugged by his other hand as he changed position to lying sideways like he was shielding her from something.

As an actress, her job had made her used to being in intimate positions with men, though Bai Yu was certain that even in this era where closeness between men and women was not strictly frowned upon, it was probably still more conservative than her former world.

“There’s blood around here. Find him.”

“Understood.”

The sound of footsteps in the area followed by the sound of bushes being rustled made Bai Yu immediately understand the current situation. If the man had not pulled her back, she would surely be found by this group of people. Considering her condition right now...Bai Yu had to thank him a thousand times!

“There’s a temple past this forest. Send some people to search there.”

“Understood.”

Those people were heading to the temple!?

“Ummph!”

“Shhh”

She resumed her struggling again when she heard their words. Bai Yu could not be sure whether they had good intentions or not. What made her more worried was that there were only women and monks at the temple. However, the strange man still would not let go of her. Bai Yu mustered all her strength to bite into his hand, yet he was not affected by it at all. His only reaction was to send her a scolding look.

She understood that he had to hide, but she was worried about her people too!

Bai Yu tried to calm down and obediently waited for the sounds of their footsteps to leave. All the while she fought with the man through her gaze, which he returned in kind. Since Bai Yu could not fight the strength of his grip, she continued to bite at his hands to show her protest.

Eventually, the group of people left. Bai Yu only slightly pushed his chest and was easily released.

“What were you fretting for? There are Qin Wang’s men protecting the temple. No need for you to worry.”

“Then why don’t you tell me that in the first place?” Bai Yu completely forgot that Ouyang Mingxian secretly placed his men near the temple to protect Bai Hua.

“Can I say anything with those men right next to us? You truly are a foolish woman.”

“So for you, if I’m not an idiot then I’m a fool. Fine, go ahead and find an intelligent woman to help you then!” Who would want to save a foul-mouthed person like this? If he was quiet like Qin Wang when he was found injured by Bai Hua, then she would not hesitate to help.

Did fate create a wrong destiny for the wrong person? This kind of thing should have happened between Ouyang Mingxian and Bai Hua, not her and this brute!

Bai Yu moved to stand up again when he went silent. She thought that he must be feeling guilty so he was letting her go now. However, she could take only a few steps before his voice sounded behind her.

“Now I know why you were in such a hurry to leave while those men were still around.”

Bai Yu frowned.

“A beauty wearing thin clothes despite the cold. You could see her alluring curves with just moonlight. No man would be able to refuse.”

“You!”

Her eyes widened at the man’s demeaning words. Her beautiful face turned into a scowl. Bai Yu did not care about preserving the image of a kind young lady. Right now she only wanted to swear at him until he could not remember where he came from anymore.

Her head was full of various curse words as she whipped her head back, but she was suddenly stopped when she came face to face with the man. Their faces were dangerously close, with her nose almost touching the chin of the person who suddenly approached her from behind. His gaze when he looked at her body was vulgar. But...how could he see her?

“You! Aren’t you blind?”

She was in thin nightwear as he said. On her body were only an inner garment and another layer of a robe. Since she was preparing to go to bed, she only covered herself with a thick blanket instead of a fur coat. How could she know that she was going to run after this man’s butterfly and met him?

“Hmph!” The man did not answer. He used only one hand to pull her into his strong chest. Bai Yu blurted out ‘Shit!’ again. She intended to start swearing at him when a strong hand forced her chin to lift up so that their eyes could meet.

The moonlight now was much brighter than moments ago. It was then that she realized that the fogged-up eyes that she saw while hiding were actually not colored white...

But it was silver!

In this world when a person’s magic broke through the black level, their body would adapt to support the higher level of magic. For the people of Da Yang, it was their eyes that would change into the color of their magic. And this man in front of her...Silver magic...Silver eyes...This was a magic-user who was two levels higher than her red magic!

“I’m not blind. And I can clearly see your figure.”

“You!”

“Although you’re a little foolish, at least your appearance can make up for it.” He continued riling her up.

“Stop talking!” Her face burned up by both anger and embarrassment. The man’s lips moved like he was going to continue, so she raised her hand and bring it down with all her strength.

“Release me!” His large hand caught her wrist before her palm could hit his face. If he did not stop her, her hands would have been hurt by the mask.

Bai Yu tried to struggle, but her arm was tightly gripped by the man. She thought to herself that it must be bruised by him already.

“You’ve already insulted me by accusing me of being blind. Now you want to hurt me too?”

“That’s because you’re rude.”

“What did I do?”

“You...” Bai Yu pressed her lips together tightly. Her face burned even hotter. “...You were looking...”

“It was you who ran at me.”

“You!”

“Can’t you be quiet for a moment?”

“Huh?”

Bai Yu who was furious became puzzled by the man’s abrupt change in attitude. Suddenly, he let go of her and told her to be quiet with a bored tone. The masked man started panting, unlike his previously annoying actions.

“Where’re you going?”

“Ow!” Bai Yu shrieked when her same hand was grabbed again. She was trying to walk away from this mercurial man. He told her to be quiet, so she wanted to leave him to his own silence. What was he stopping her for?

“Can’t you be a little gentler? I’m a woman.” Her white skin bruised easily, did he not know?

“Stop being stubborn and do what I said, then. I’m exhausted arguing with you.”

“Why don’t you treat me with more respect-ow!” He squeezed her wrist again.

“Women are all like this.”

“Then don’t bother with women like me, ow!”

“Stop arguing.”

“Can you stop squeezing my arm? This is a human arm, not a blow-up doll’s that you can just do whatever you please.”

“What is a blow-up doll?”

“Just tell me what you want me to do.”

If she talked about something that did not exist in this world, then he would still call her crazy and stupid no matter how much she explained for sure. Bai Yu changed the subject because she was tired of having to argue with the brute.

“Hmph!”

The large hand that was holding her wrist moved to bring her smaller hand to his chest. Bai Yu felt dampness and the metallic smell of blood from his broad chest. Her hands started shaking again. She was so caught up bickering with him that she forgot about her own fear.
