What Bad Intentions can the Yandere Crown Prince have?-Chapter 70: Xiao Bai’s Name

In the middle of the vermilion door frame, the girl was wearing a pale yellow blouse, her profile slightly tilted upwards, her face as fair as milk.

She was completely absorbed in her own thoughts, oblivious to the anxious and uneasy expressions of the maidservants who were driven outside, and didn’t even notice when Tang Jiaojiao came in.

It was Tao Zi who noticed and gave a reminder: "Miss Tang is here!"

The young girl suddenly snapped out of her reverie, quickly gathered the loose sheets of paper beside her into her arms, and stood up to greet her: "Sister, why are you here?"

Tang Jiaojiao glanced at the paper ball she quickly crumpled: "What were you writing?"

The young girl’s gaze flickered, and she hesitated and stumbled over her words.

Tang Jiaojiao looked at her with a half-smile.

Tang Xiaobai reluctantly handed over the paper ball: "I was just calculating Sister’s enemies..."

"What enemies do I have?" Tang Jiaojiao unfolded it with disdain and frowned, "Forget Zhao Jing, Yan Jingjing... when did I become enemies with her?"

Tang Xiaobai squinted at her: "Don’t you have any idea of the grudges between you two?"

To begin with, just taste this name—Yan Jingjing.

Tang Jiaojiao, Yan Jingjing, at first glance, are definitely the same type of person.

The protagonist Ye Qingrong is featured as a Mary Sue character. Upon arriving in the Capital City, she easily snatched away Tang Jiaojiao’s title of the number one beauty and Yan Jingjing’s title of the top talented woman, effortlessly setting these two city-famous figures in the villainous roles.

Yet, although both were malicious supporting characters, Tang Jiaojiao and Yan Jingjing were also at odds with each other.

"What grudge or hatred could I have with her? I don’t attend those pretentious poem gatherings, nor do I compete for those pompous scholars. Even if I happen to run into her, I’ve never spoken to her!" Tang Jiaojiao exclaimed with disdain.

Tang Xiaobai nodded in understanding: "Yes, but she might be jealous of Sister’s beauty!"

The relationship between the two was almost like the beauty looking down on the pretentiousness of the talented woman, while the talented woman despised the vulgarity of the beauty.

These two rarely appeared in the same social scene, and no malicious intent had been evident from Yan Jingjing so far. But Yan Jingjing had always been quietly malicious, who knew what was in her heart.

Tang Jiaojiao glanced at her humorously, then lowered her head to look at another paper.

"Why is Prince Jin included?" Miss Tang frowned again.

Tang Xiaobai tiptoed to confirm and said calmly, "Didn’t I cross him out?"

Tang Jiaojiao looked at her suspiciously: "So what do you suspect Prince Jin of?"

"Nothing, I just wrote it down casually," Tang Xiaobai explained perfunctorily.

Since calculating enemies was the task, she had gone over all those who had appeared.

However, Ah Xiao had said right, Li Shu’s suspicion wasn’t significant, so she crossed it out again.

But simply crossing it out didn’t seem to satisfy Miss Tang: "His Highness Prince Jin kindly rescued me, yet you suspect him. Haven’t I taught you gratitude?"

"When did you teach me that?" Tang Xiaobai didn’t believe it.

Tang Jiaojiao sneered and said, "You said that yourself!"

"Oh?" Tang Xiaobai earnestly tried to recall.

Tang Jiaojiao glanced over the rest of the list and asked: "Why are you writing this?"

What else? Naturally, it was to analyze who might be plotting against Tang Jiaojiao this time.

Tang Jiaojiao realized this after asking and immediately tucked the so-called list of enemies into her sleeve, scolding: "Who told you to meddle in these trivial matters? Go back and rest!" With that, she pushed her inside.

Tang Xiaobai struggled to look back at her.

Miss Tang had always disdained the frail and weak persona. She herself had always been healthy and rosy-cheeked, but she had obviously become haggard these days.

"Sister!" Tang Xiaobai couldn’t help but call out.

"What is it?" Tang Jiaojiao responded while pressing her down onto the bed.

"Sister, you are the legitimate eldest daughter of Duke Yan."

Tang Jiaojiao glanced at her: "Do you need to tell me that?"

"Sister is beautiful and kind-hearted."

"Nonsense!" Tang Jiaojiao stopped tucking her in and said, "Did you hit your head?"

Tang Xiaobai turned back to look at her: "Sister, you are the best!"

Tang Jiaojiao snorted with a laugh: "Of course, I know I’m the best. Has someone been spreading rumors to you?"

Tang Xiaobai remained silent for a moment, then praised: "Sister is truly smart!"

"Who has been badmouthing me in front of you?" Tang Jiaojiao asked with cold eyes, unfazed by sweet talk.

"If one wishes to keep it secret—" No, that wasn’t right, "there are no walls without cracks, I can always find out!"

Tang Jiaojiao sneered and said, "What kind of people gossip around town? They are just envious and take joy in any misstep. Do I care? Don’t they also talk about me being rude, arrogant, unvirtuous, and untalented?"

Tang Xiaobai looked at her wistfully: "Sister, you haven’t been looking well these days..."

"That’s because I’m disgusted!" Tang Jiaojiao said with a bit of shame and frustration.

Tang Xiaobai tugged her hand: "We will surely catch the mastermind behind this and not let him go!" As she said this, she still felt unsettled.

Even if Tang Jiaojiao didn’t care and later they caught and punished the mastermind, they had still been disgusted by it.

"These are not your concerns!" Tang Jiaojiao mercilessly shook off her hand and tucked her in with the quilt.

Tang Xiaobai watched her movements, dazed for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Sister, why am I called Xiaobai? It doesn’t sound like your sister’s name." Yet Tang Jiaojiao obviously valued her sister very much.

Tang Jiaojiao looked up and stared at her oddly for a while, then asked: "Don’t you know your formal name?"

"Form-formal name?" Tang Xiaobai was shocked, did she have something like that?

Tang Jiaojiao burst into laughter: "How do I have such a silly sister like you? You don’t even know your formal name hahaha..."

Tang Xiaobai felt wronged: "No one calls me that, how would I know?"

Since she entered the book, she had encountered three forms of address: the second daughter of Duke Yan, Second Miss Tang, and Xiaobai.

Who had respected her formal name?

After laughing for a while, Tang Jiaojiao said, "Of course, you have a formal name—" she paused to recall, then laughed, "You were born on the night of the Lantern Festival, the night sky was clear and the moonlight shone brightly, Father named you Jiaojiao..."

Tang Xiaobai slowly collapsed onto her arm, her eyes inexplicably wet.

It turns out she had a name...

It turns out she had a proper name...

"You were different from other babies at birth, very fair-skinned. Xiaobai was the nickname I gave you, and later everyone called you that—" Miss Tang glanced at her, "Why, are you dissatisfied now?" Her tone was slightly threatening.

Tang Xiaobai sniffled and shook her head: "No, I’m very satisfied..." Tang Jiaojiao, it sounded less like a cannon fodder.

After rubbing her eyes on her sleeve, she raised her head solemnly: "Sister, last time at the suburban startled horse incident, Prince Jin reached there first, this time he was also the first to find you. Don’t be too quick to thank him, maybe he has something to do with this."

"Do you need to say?" Tang Jiaojiao replied irritably.

Only then did Tang Xiaobai feel relieved.

Yet she was still relieved too early.

Early the next morning, a message related to Prince Jin Li and Shu arrived in front of her and Tang Jiaojiao—
