Transmigrated as the Villainess, Troubled by the Cuteness!-Chapter 169 - 145: The Princess Is a Demon, Burn Her Alive 3
The Princess couldn’t find any change of clothes in this shabby house, so she smashed a ceramic bowl and used a shard to cut away the damaged part of her clothing.
On the first day, the Princess stayed inside the house; no one came looking for her. She heard the rumors outside the door about people shouting they wanted to find her and burn her, which scared her a bit.
On the second and third days, Pan Jiaojiao didn’t come looking for her or bring her food. It had been two days without food, and the Princess was terribly hungry.
She grew up with a life of luxury, never having suffered such grievances.
Unable to bear it, she cried again.
After crying, her body’s dehydration worsened, leaving her no choice. The Princess could only sneak out at night in the dark, hoping to find water somewhere.
The Princess didn’t realize that shortly after she left, a shadow followed her.
Walking the streets alone, it was quite dark around, and she was very scared, but the night also served as her shield, preventing anyone from discovering her.
Quickly, she encountered patrolling guards on the street and had to hurriedly find a place to hide, even though she didn’t quite know why she wanted to hide.
After the guards left, just as she was about to come out of the corner, an oily voice came from behind, "Ah~ beauty, you smell so good, come here and let me kiss you." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
The Princess’s body instantly stiffened. She wanted to run, but her body wouldn’t move. After two days without food, her nerves were taut, and for a pampered Princess, this was approaching her limit.
She could only stand there numbly, feeling a foul-smelling hot breath approaching.
However, what she imagined didn’t happen. A scream came from behind her, followed by a cold voice whispering in her ear, "Why didn’t you run just now?"
The Princess turned back and saw the person. She exclaimed in surprise, "Ranchen!!"
The Princess lunged toward Wen Ranchen. The affection she had developed for Fu Xuan over these days seemed to have faded upon seeing Wen Ranchen again.
Wen Ranchen did not let the Princess get close to him. Once he confirmed this princess was not the one he knew, his expression turned cold. He slightly sidestepped to avoid her, indifferently saying, "You are not her."
Confused, the Princess asked, "What?"
Wen Ranchen looked at her, a murderous intent flashing in his eyes, "Return her to me."
The Princess’s heart instantly felt like it had fallen into an ice cellar. Although she didn’t fully understand what Wen Ranchen meant, she knew that he wanted her dead.
Wen Ranchen wasn’t there to rescue her but to kill her.
But she was unwilling; she wanted to know what kind of woman she had lost to. "Ranchen... who is she? Tell me, who is that woman?!"
At this moment, the Princess could hear nothing else, "The original owner of this body."
...
The Princess was taken back to prison and locked up.
Wen Ranchen took great care of her body, yet he constantly tormented her nerves.
The words she heard most every day were, could you leave this body?
Could you just die?
Give her back to me.
How dare you compare with her, you are not even a fraction of her.
Wen Ranchen was practically her obsession over these years. She could endure his indifference but not that he loved someone else, even wanting her to die for that person now.
Were there two people in her body?
What a joke, from the beginning to the end, it was her body, hers alone!
Although the Princess tried hard to think this way, she gradually began to doubt it.
It seemed since the Northern Land, things she experienced started to become amiss.
Her subordinates suddenly mutinied yet never harmed her body, only restricted her actions... After returning to the Capital City, her father and mother’s strange behaviors, and the people’s words about the original appearance of the Princess.
If another person indeed existed in her body, would everything make sense?
But if so, then who was she? The Princess was terrified and unwilling to believe it.
Another month passed, and the Princess realized no one came to rescue her. She could only stay in this luxurious cage, she was abandoned.
And with her own efforts, she absolutely couldn’t escape.
At that moment, Fu Xuan’s image suddenly flashed in her mind.
Right, Fu Xuan, Fu Xuan surely could help her. Fu Xuan was so capable; if he could help her escape last time, he could certainly do it this time.
So, on this day, she said to Wen Ranchen, "Have Fu Xuan see me just once; as long as this wish is fulfilled, I will leave this body."
Of course, this was a lie. Even the Princess herself didn’t know how to leave.
Wen Ranchen looked at the Princess before him, her mind all written on her face. Though it was the same face, looking at her, Wen Ranchen felt nothing but disgust and hatred.
The one he truly held dear had her body stolen by the woman in front of him.
"Alright, I will let you meet Fu Xuan. Hope you won’t break your promise."
A feeling of joy surged within the Princess; she was saved.
"I will absolutely not break my promise!"
