Transmigration: The Fate of the Villainess-Chapter 31
31 Apart from that overflowing chest, you have got nothing else Part I
The epidemic incident this time was resolved within one full month, as a result of the united effort between the royal doctors and Ouyang Feilong’s troops. Still, Ouyang Mingxian who took over the responsibility after his uncle was the one given main credit, while the two misses from the Bai family were showered with praise by the people of the capital.
The first miss Bai Yu, the brilliant number one beauty who discovered the cause and stopped the spread.
The third miss Bai Hua, the woman who proved that she could be useful even without magic. She used the ancient method of treatment to cure the villagers, overworking to the point of falling ill herself.
Apart from them was also Miss Xu Peipei who came later with medicine and medical equipment, and then stayed to help at the village herself. Xu Peipei could endure more than Bai Yu had expected. She assisted in many of Bai Yu’s duties, and above all, she could control her personal emotion surprisingly well after witnessing a heartbreaking event. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m
One day, Bai Hua collapsed after overexerting herself to perform acupuncture without getting any rest. As soon as Ouyang Mingxian was notified, he immediately took her to his own tent and gave permission for her to rest there until she could fully recover. As for himself, he had men set up a new tent for him. It was an out-of-character behavior from Qin Wang who, like his uncle, was cautious of his treatment toward women.
From then on, Bai Hua’s importance in Ouyang Mingxian’s heart was closely observed by everyone who had witnessed the scene, since all in the capital knew that the first miss Bai Yu devoted her heart to Qin Wang alone, and she had long been supported by the Empress Dowager. However, now Qin Wang suddenly showed concern for the third miss Bai Hua. What a pity for Bai Yu, the young lady born from first Furen, to lose to a concubine daughter like Bai Hua.
Still, Bai Yu herself did not care one bit. Even with Xu Peipei taunting her every day, she was still certain that Xu Peipei also saw Bai Hua as a threat, because she had started going back and forth between harassing the heroine and bickering with her. That incident with Bai Hua had caused people to start looking at her with a strange gaze, but the villainess still lifted her chin and walked with her back straight everywhere she went. She did not care what others said about her.
Xiao Xi watched her young miss with reverence. She knew that inside, her miss must be hurting, yet she could retain her impeccable manner on the outside. As expected as the esteemed first miss of the Bai family!
In the end, no one knew the truth as well as herself. Bai Yu no longer concerned herself with Ouyang Mingxian. Everyone could love anyone, as long as they did not cross into her boundary. This life, she wanted to start over, not creating karma and intertwining her lives with anyone else’s in an endless cycle. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
.....
Now that she thought of karma, Bai Yu did not know in how many lives had she and Bai Hua paid and repaid each other’s karma debt through various actions. In her former life, Song Lianhua had stolen Li Wenrou from her, possibly because Bai Yu had taken advantage of Ouyang Wenrou’s love for Bai Hua and used it to hurt her. She once had manipulated Ouyang Wenrou to go against his older brother, Ouyang Mingxian, and interfere with his love with Bai Hua, leading to the two fighting almost to the death. It was no surprise that karma would result in her being fooled by Li Wenrou for full nine years.
After she died, Ouyang Mingxian was born as the son of Song Lianhua or Bai Hua, but they did not have the chance to meet. That must also be the karma that punished Song Lianhua for causing Yoknapha to commit suicide, depriving her of the chance to meet her fated love.
That goddess had told Bai Yu that how karma debt was repaid in each life was different. There was one life she was born as a cat, trying to kill Bai Hua who was a mouse, and in the end, was poisoned to death by Ouyang Mingxian who hated cats.
One life she was born as a man who abandoned his own wife, Bai Hua, to be with Ouyang Mingxian, and was subsequently killed by Ouyang Wenrou who was Bai Hua’s brother in that life as revenge.
There were many more ways that their other lives entwined. They would continue to hurt one another in an endless cycle. And so, she had to come here to stop it from happening in the first place.
From the goddess’s words and her own judgment when she went to visit Bai Hua while she was recovering from overwork, Bai Yu was certain that the Bai Hua who transmigrated here was not Song Lianhua from her past life. Instead, she must be Bai Hua’s soul from another life or another era that Bai Yu had no memory of.
She and Bai Hua came from a similar era but at different times, still, their souls were the same.
Her and Bai Hua’s fate could be said to be equal this time. She knew the future and could avoid it if she chose to, while Bai Hua had her ability that she could use to advance herself and gain acceptance in this world of hierarchy.
As long as they did not create karma, fate would not make them enemies in their lives after this.
“What a fool! Your lowly half-sister was using her wiles to capture Qin Wang’s attention. Why are you sitting and drinking tea, acting all relaxed like this?!”
On the day that the weather was mild and not too cold, Bai Yu was drinking her hot tea and contemplating about her being transmigrated here when a voluptuous figure in bright red came barging in. Even after her relaxing atmosphere was shattered, she slowly and gracefully moved to continue sipping her tea, as if there was no interruption at all. Not long after, an empty teacup was set down, and her phoenix eyes finally turned to look at Xu Peipei, who was still trying to suppress her anger to Bai Hua and Bai Yu, her two rivals.
“Because it doesn’t involve me at all. Or does it make your chest heavier?” Bai Yu teased when she saw how Xu Peipei’s chest moved due to her heavy breathing from anger and from hurrying to walk all the way out to the Bai family’s gazebo.
“Why are you always talking about my chest?!”
Because it was good for the eyes and looked like it would feel good to the touch too. I like it. Heh heh.
“...Is it because you’re lacking yourself, so you’re envious? Are you overcompensating?” Xu Peipei giggled, suddenly feeling better from having an advantage over Bai Yu in terms of figure. She intentionally pressed herself to Bai Yu’s arm. The anger dissipated and was replaced by a wicked grin that enhanced her alluring charm. Bai Yu had to admit that this woman was ‘sexy’ unlike other women of the time.
After mocking her opponent with words and actions to her heart’s content, Xu Peipei moved to sit next to Bai Yu, who had been wearing dark blue more often. From afar, the two seemed as if two boxers from opposite corners in an intense match.
Bai Yu rolled her eyes. Did you already forget that you were angry?
“Have pride in it.” Bai Yu faked a smile at the woman who was feeling proud of ‘winning’ over her with the size of her chest. However, that pride was taken away in the next moment when Bai Yu said: “...Because apart from that overflowing chest, you have got nothing else.”
“You!”
“Blessings to Qin Wang.”
The maids who were waiting in front of the gazebo greeted loudly, attempting to stop the two misses inside who were having a conversation so heated that they did not notice the man heading toward them.
Bai Yu and Xu Peipei hurriedly stood up to curtsy to Ouyang Mingxian. The expressions on the two women’s faces were so different that he was surprised. Xu Peipei was bowing her head while biting on her lips like she was being dissatisfied with something. On the other hand, Bai Yu had a subtle smile like something was amusing her.
The corner of Ouyang Mingxian’s mouth lifted slightly. It seemed that Miss Bai was being naughty again. Lately, she had been openly causing ruckus without hiding behind a noble at all. Truly interesting.
“Did benwang interrupt you two?”
