Chapter 14: Assassins and bad luck (Part 1)

No matter if it’s a man or a woman, a beautiful person will always have better opportunities. So, they will act more arrogant and prideful than ordinary people.

Lin Chujiu’s pair of beautiful eyes flash and show an unfriendly smile. The maidservant doesn’t know what she had done wrong, but she nervously shrinks back. Her words are trembling when she said: “Gu, Guniang (Young lady)… …”

“Remember, you said that I am not sensible, right?” Lin Chujiu interrupted her words and then reach out her hand to hold her jaw.

“Uhh … … pain… put… let go.” Due to the pain she felt, the maidservant disregard Lin Chujiu’s position and fight back. The Xi Niang (Matron of Honor) and the other three dowry maidservants bowed their head as if they are not seeing anything. Lin Chujiu is a pampered daughter, so they don’t want to… …

“Pa-” a crisp slap sounded. All of the maidservants looked up and saw that the maidservant with mahogany colored dress fell on the ground and was clutching her face.

“Gu, Guniang (Young lady)… …” The Xi Niang (Matron of Honor) and the other three dowry maidservant got scared. When they saw Lin Chujiu’s sharp eyes they immediately looked down again.

Lin Chujiu nodded her head in satisfaction and said: “Go and get me a hot water. Don’t let me repeat myself for the third time.”

The three dowry maidservants were about to go, but the maidservant with mahogany colored dress said: “Fu, Lin Furen (Madam Lin) won’t let you go!”

“Do you think I’ll get scared?” Lin Chujiu find her funny. She walked toward her and moved closer her face: “Just because you’re a bit pretty than me you really thought that you can step on me?”

“You, you … …” the maidservant with mahogany colored dress shrink back to the corner. She was slapped already by Lin Chujiu so she got scared and worried that Lin Chujiu might ruin her face.

Lin Chujiu felt angry, but she doesn’t really care about this small maidservant and just swept her eyes to the other three dowry maidservant. The three of them didn’t dare to say no, so they just hurried… …

Xiao Tianyao had no plan to enter the bridal chamber, but he had heard a report that Lin Chujiu had completed all the procedures in the wedding. Xiao Tianyao was quite surprised and asked someone to pushed him over to her place. But, he didn’t expect to hear a good show.

Lin Chujiu is a hypocritical woman that the emperor had sent to humiliate him.

“Open the door.”

Before the three dowry maidservants went out. Xiao Tianyao made the first move and asked to open the door

*Squeak* The door was opened. Lin Chujiu subconsciously look toward the place where the sound came from. At first glance, she saw a mighty looking man dressed in black and a guard. But, the man dressed in black is sitting in a wheelchair.

In that moment, Lin Chujiu forgot to look away and her mind involuntary remembered the poem she used to memorize before: To store one hundred liters of jade is like arranging a loose green stone, To cut off a splendid husband is secondly to lifetime.

Honestly, when Lin Chujiu saw him at first he was so good looking and there is no trace that he is a man.

His facial features look so good, his eyebrows looks as black as an ink, his eyes look like stars, and even the tip of his nose is beautiful. How delicate he truly is.

But no matter how delicate looking he is. No one would mistake him as a woman because this man looks very cold and has a distinguished atmosphere. His masculine appearance is impossible to ignore!

Perhaps their momentum is too frightening, that’s why Lin Chujiu admitted that her heart got a little scared. But, because her heart got scared her mind got more convinced that this man is the God of War, Prince Xiao!

Wangye (Prince)!” Lin Chujiu’s lips gently and slowly called him out due to surprise because of his arrival. But then she didn’t forget to slightly bow her head.

Wang… …Wangye(Prince)?” The Xi Niang (Matron of Honor) and the other three dowry maidservant’s legs got soft when they heard Lin Chujiu’s words. They immediately kneel down and curled up like a ball while trembling nonstop.

They dare to challenge Lin Chujiu, but not Prince Xiao Tianyao. After all, they are very clear that he is a murderous fiend!

Xiao Tianyao didn’t even look at them, his eyes are only looking to Lin Chujiu. The red wedding dress made her look bright and her slightly lowered head reveals her inner arrogance. And this time, the maidservant that was creeping on her feet made her attitude more obvious.

No doubt, Lin Chujiu is beautiful, but Xiao Tianyao doesn’t like this woman!

No, it should be said that no matter what kind of person she is, Xiao Tianyao will still hate her. How could he like a woman that the emperor had used to humiliate him?

However, he thought that today’s unkind series of events will enrage Lin Chujiu. He didn’t expect that this woman will put aside his cold behavior and even have the spirit to disciple her maidservants.

The corner of his eyes sweeps passed to the maidservant that was creeping on Lin Chujiu. Then, his eyes flashed a touch of disgust and said: “Drag her out.”

“Yes.” The guardsmen behind his left and right side immediately stepped inside the room. Lin Chujiu frown her eyebrows but didn’t move.

The two guardsmen just walked passed by her side as if they didn’t see her and pulled up the maidservant. The maidservant with mahogany colored dress got surprised at first, then shouted: “Wangye, Wangye (Prince) please have mercy! This Guniang is, Guniang (Young lady)… …”

“Too noisy.”

Xiao Tianyao coldly said. Hearing his words the guardsmen didn’t show pity to the beautiful stunned maidservant and drag her like a rag.

With a *Puff* sound. The beautiful maidservant fell to the ground but didn’t even say anything. The Xi Niang (Matron of Honor) and three dowry maidservant that was still kneeling on the ground got shocked and even Lin Chujiu got also shocked.

This Prince doesn’t have any sense of humor ah.

Humor?

Do you expect a tyrant that didn’t even blink an eye while killing a hundred and thousands of his enemies to have a sense of humor? You must be dreaming!

After the beautiful maidservant got thrown out and fell on the ground. Xiao Tianyao coldly said: “Get out.”. The Xi Niang (Matron of Honor) and three dowry maidservant got scared and immediately ran out in fear.

The guard pushed Xiao Tianyao’s wheelchair inside the room. He didn’t need to wait for Xiao Tianyao’s other command and just immediately retreated out. But, before leaving he didn’t forget to close the door.

Inside the new room, only Lin Chujiu and Xiao Tianyao are present. One of them is standing and the other once is sitting. If something will happen, Lin Chujiu had the upper hand. With Xiao Tianyao’s current situation, he doesn’t have the slightest advantage.

The two of them stayed quiet and no one spoke. Inside the new room, only the candle’s burning sound can occasionally be heard. The dull atmosphere makes a person breath difficult.

Lin Chujiu frowned, she doesn’t know what Xiao Tianyao want to accomplish by doing this. She was about to open her mouth when she heard Xiao Tianyao’s word: “Sit.”

  1. Awwwww he dealt with the stupid maid! 😆😆😆😆 Ok now I hope she can stand up to him and don’t let him bully. Also thanks for the translations! Cannot wait for next chapters❤❤❤

  2. aw! i like him! at first i was hesitant about reading this story since the blurb made him seem like a big jerk. but i like that he decided to keep her dignity and not bully her infront of the servants. lol let’s see how he is going to bully her though she won’t let him get away with it ~ne! 🙂 thanks for the update!!

  3. Thank you for the new chapter! I always look forward to reading a new chapter of this novel. Can’t wait to see what happens.

    1. Yes, I am encountering a problem today >.< I don't know why though.... And I'm really sorry about that, but I really don't know much about technical stuff so please just bear for it for a while.

    2. Ahh… i thought i was the only one that got that problem today. It didn’t let me post my reply.

      Anyway…. Ai, this novel really interesting. You got a good eyes and thank you for sharing with us.

  4. Thank you for the fast update! Mmh, I wonder why he had the maid dragged out considering he obviously hates and wants to humiliate Lin Chujiu…

    1. well, it’s a good thing that he is not that arrogant like Lin Wanting. She always wants everyone’s attention in everything she does. >.<

      1. That’s true. Though it was really amusing to watch Lin Wanting shoot herself in the foot during the wedding ceremony. 😀

  5. They finally meet omg…and I’m glad he doesn’t humiliate in front of the servants, at least lol. let’s see how she’s going to go against him hehe. thank you for the chapter!! ^.^

  6. Hm. I expect her system is going to classify him as a patient she has to treat.

    Something that doesn’t make sense to me. The original LCJ believed her stepmother was good to her – not realizing she was spoiling her into a useless brat. But wouldn’t the servants treat her with respect because on the surface she was allowed to do whatever she wants? The maids’ attitudes make more sense if this was one where she was openly abused by her family.
