Transmigration: The Fate of the Villainess

66 If you wanted to say harsh words, at least took off the mask! Part II

“Is benwang interrupting someone’s conversation here?”

Xu Luanle’s laugh halted. The feather fan was quickly folded back. He straightened his back and assumed a dignified posture that was the polar opposite of how he was like a while ago.

Bai Yu who was smiling along with her new friend slowly masked her expression with calmness and formality. The two friends stood up to greet the prince who had come in without making a slightest noise. His high level of magic made it impossible for them to detect his presence.

“Blessings to Wangye.”

“No need to be formal.”

Bai Yu stood up straight. In her head was an amusing thought that at least Xu Luanle used the ‘correct’ manner to pay respect.

“Benwang was requested by Bai He to take Miss Bai back to Yue mansion. But it seems like benwang has interrupted an opportunity between a man and a woman.”

Bai Yu’s smile disappeared. She looked up at the man who had returned to wearing the dragon mask.

“It is merely a conversation between two good friends. Wangye must have misunderstood.”

.....

“Benwang had yet to say anything.”

But your tone tells otherwise!

“I did not know that Miss Bai came with Wangye. I was just glad to meet a friend so I brought her here. I must apologize.”

He kneeled down. Though Xu Luanle did not care for the tradition, he still understood how uptight society was. He got along well with her, and he could not afford to destroy her reputation over it.

“Benwang only came here because of Bai He’s request. What’s done is already done. Stand up.”

“Then, please let me send you off.”

Ouyang Feilong said nothing. He walked out of the building first without even sparing another glance at her. Bai Yu could only sigh and follow him. After walking for a little while, both Bai Yu and Xu Luanle were out of breath.

Commander general...Just what are you in a rush for? —————————-

“I accidentally ran into Master Xu in the garden.”

“The Emperor often accidentally ran into royal consorts while in the garden too.”

“We were just talking like any new friends do.”

“The Emperor also talks to those consorts at the garden.”

“But Master Xu and I hit it off really well.”

Bai Yu insisted on explaining her closeness with Xu Luanle to the other person. She knew that Ouyang Feilong had always seen her in a negative light. The last time they talked, he finally talked to her nicely, she could not make their relationship worse because of this.

She wanted to have some good friends in this world as well. But it seemed like Ouyang Feilong held a deep-rooted bias against her. He even compared her and Xu Luanle with the Emperor and royal consorts who were trying to charm him. It made Bai Yu more frustrated.

If you wanted to say harsh words, then at least took off the mask! At least your beauty would still soothe my heart...

“You embraced everyone you enjoyed conversing with?”

“Uh...”

“Then will you let benwang embrace you too?”

Bai Yu instinctively retreated until her back hit the wall of the carriage. She hugged her handwarmer tightly, even though Ouyang Feilong who was sitting on the other side had yet to make any moves.

“You’ve misunderstood.”

“Benwang have misunderstood that Miss Bai was fake toward everyone, when in truth, you are exceedingly straightforward with a man you like.”

A cold voice was said through the intimidating mask. Bai Yu was not sure what kind of facial expression he had, but she did not want him to get the wrong idea. She was truthful in front of Xu Luanle because she saw him as a friend. Furthermore, he reminded her of the friends she had in her last life. Those were the reasons why she showed him her true self, but then why the person who pulled her out of her muddled thoughts suddenly become distant today?

“Benwang won’t tell Bai He about the relationship between you two. Are you satisfied?”

“Very much so!” No sooner had she given a reply than she moved to sit on his lap. Before the other person could react, she wound her arms around his neck to give herself support in the swaying carriage. The horses outside were moving, pulling the car forward, without an inkling of what was happening inside.

Though her former life as an actress had made her use to being in intimate positions with men, this was the first time of her doing so in this body. It made Bai Yu’s heart race uncontrollably. Still, she had to endure. Today, this big sis will teach the beauty general the true art of seduction!

“Then I’d also like to ask Wangye to keep our relationship a secret as well.”

“Shameless fool.”

Because of an incredible proximity, Bai Yu could see Ouyang Feilong gritting his teeth. She was not sure if it was because of anger or because he was restraining himself from being affected by her body.

The villainess paid no heed to his reaction. She held no reservation or embarrassment with her acting skill. Bai Yu squeezed herself into Ouyang Feilong’s chest.

If you won’t listen to my words, then I’ll have to teach you with my body language!

Thud!

The carriage that had been moving smoothly suddenly bumped, as if it had a will of its own to encourage the closeness between the two. Ouyang Feilong put his arm around the small waist of the person on his lap to protect her from falling because of the impact. However, his goodwill backfired as his action made the fragrance of plum blossom from the foolish woman’s body drift closer than before.

He had been fighting for a long time at the border. He had experienced various kinds of women, various shapes, tastes, and smells. But none ever made his heart beat like the sweet, floral smell of this body in his arm. This little fool could strangely make him calm. Relaxed. He unconsciously inhaled the fragrance from Bai Yu’s black hair without her noticing.

“I’m shameless only when with a man I like. Wangye is the one who said that.”

A soft voice tinged with an accusing tone pulled him out of his thoughts. Ouyang Feilong sighed as if he himself just realized what he had done. He had made the decision to look at her in a new light, yet somehow he had made a quick judgment of her.

“It’s benwang’s fault. Are you satisfied now?”

Bai Yu showed a victorious smile. She chose to view his words as an apology of a foul-mouthed person. And now that she had played him like this, could she just tease this sulky general a little more?

“Xu Luanle and I are just friends.”

“That is clear to benwang.”

“What you saw was a comforting hug between friends.”

“Then get out of benwang’s lap. There’s nothing for benwang to comfort you over.” He took his arm away from the soft body, feeling slight regret. But Bai Yu still hugged him tightly with no signs of letting go. He already took a step back for her, and now he had found another topic to bicker with her again. Ouyang Feilong was the most frustrating person!

“I don’t want Wangye to comfort me as well,” she said softly. Ouyang Feilong could clearly hear her every word when they were in such close distance. Their faces were not too far from each other. Close enough for him to see the two dimples on her cheeks that made his heart beat even faster.

“And what do you want?” Golden irises studied the fool’s face. He knew she was putting up an act, but he could not take his eyes away from her.

Bai Yu’s eyes met with the man’s. From his tone, it did not sound like he was angry or irritated. It gave her the courage to take off his black mask and slowly slide it down. There was no resistance against her hands.

Dark eyes gazed into the golden ones that were harsh yet so intoxicating.

“I just want to look at Wangye’s face closely.”
