240 4.64 – Fake Angel – Dangerous Angels

[WARNING: A penalty amounting -10 000p will be imposed the moment Host’s actions will cause damage to Zhao Rong’s soul. Zhao Rong’s condition will be assessed after Host leaves the world.]

Bing Shi stopped at her steps, turning slowly around, she gripped her staff tightly, saying while looking at Zhao Rong in resolute, “Your highness, this subject has been here the whole time.”

As the knife drilled itself right before Fei Lan’s shocked face, Zhao Rong spoke out to his lover with an emotionless voice, “You had enough time to avoid my attack, but you weren’t fast enough to cover your face with your hands when your veil fell?”

Hiding her tension, Fei Lan reacted fast. “So what? I’m tired of being a mere bird trapped inside of your little cage. This is what I get after what I’ve done to you? You’re choosing a courtesan over me? What has she done for you besides squeezing you out of money?” She glared at him with fierce eyes, laughing at his words with mockery. ‘Go die, you ungrateful bastard.’

Bing Shi, ‘Ah, I’m being seen as a bad person again. Well, what she said isn’t far from the actual truth.’

“This prince never asked for your assistance,” he spoke to Fei Lan. She delivered it as if he never gave her a thing. Feeling the peace in Tian Shi’s voice, his mood stabilized. Zhao Rong pulled away the coat to check Fei Lan’s injuries. His sudden anger caused her a few broken bones and bruises.

“I can take care of myself,” Fei Lan yanked her hand away while thinking in her head, hissing in pain. Yes, continue taking care of her before Bing Shi’s eyes. She was sure that she had Zhao Rong curled up around her little finger, taking his out of character action as Bing Shi trampling with his mood by using some drugs or hypnosis.

She didn’t need him anymore? Zhao Rong almost snapped Fei Lan’s slender wrist in two if it weren’t for Tian Shi’s staff dropping in between them. He looked up Tian Shi, his irritation relocating towards her.

Bing Shi bowed in apology, picking up the staff in a hurry, “My apologies, this subject was too immersed in Miss Fei Lan’s beauty, my hands suddenly became weak.” Taking out her clean veil from her bag, she offered it to Fei Lan, “This place doesn’t have a qualified physician. If needed, this subject can provide a comfortable carriage for Miss’s transport to the military camp.”

.....

Fei Lan accepted the veil, rolling her eyes internally, ‘Please, who are you trying to please with that poor white lotus act?’ When Bing Shi tried to get on her good side, she saw it as a cheap bootlicking attempt to lower her guard. Which was a truth in a way.

Bing Shi glanced at Fei Lan’s unreadable expression, wondering if her action was seen as a third wheel trying to separate them by getting on Zhao Rong’s good side. She wasn’t afraid of Zhao Rong but Fei Lan. That woman was a confident host who wouldn’t break down easily, no matter the obstacles.

Bing Shi still couldn’t tell precisely what Fei Lan would do next. She’d rather be seen as a white lotus with calming properties than a dangerous spark of fire next to a ticking bomb.

While Zhao Rong was riding on his horse next to Tian Shi’s carriage, three women inside the carriage were having a casual conversation, or so it seemed.

“I wonder if you have noticed any suspicious movements in the vicinity,” asked Bing Shi, while her twin sat next to her silently, “Somehow, all the goods in my carts disappeared.”

“Are you saying that I stole your goods?” asked Fei Lan in bemusement, her body bandaged in a cast. The only person capable of doing such things as stealing massive wagons filled with merchandise was herself. She had many cards up her sleeves such as teleportation, space, and invisibility abilities. So what if Kuro saw it? This world didn’t have such things as cameras. Even if Bing Shi tried to accuse her, nobody would believe it. She couldn’t wait to see how Bing Shi’s business will slowly fall apart. Everyone will refuse to work with her in the future. That fake angel broke the promise of not scheming against her people for four years! If she didn’t retaliate two folds, she wouldn’t be Fei Lan!

“Who else if not you?” answered Bing Shi. She didn’t know who belonged to Fei Lan’s organizations, nor did she search for them as she had more important matters at hand. However, what happened to Fei Lan’s people had some connection with her. That, she wouldn’t deny. Ru Quan’s course of action caused many people to follow him, Fei Lan’s people included. They disbanded. Because Ru Quan didn’t accept kids, he sent them to her orphanages.

But it was so easy to put the blame on others. Fei Lan refused to acknowledge that Bing Shi had nothing to do with her people. To justify her actions, she found many faults within that artificial angel-Fei Lan antagonized every bit of Bing Shi’s character.

“Do you have proof?” Fei Lan hid her smirk. Despite her delicate features, there was a hint of danger hovering above her noble temperament.

“Um... Well, someday, I’ll come up with one.” Bing Shi’s eyes never moved away from Fei Lan. That fairy’s aura turned cold and emotionless as if warning her to watch her steps. She recollected that gaze. Fei Lan’s eyes and posture showed a type of disdain that looked down on all humans.

“Don’t make me wait for long,” said Fei Lan with a provocative smile, her voice was calm with a hint of calculativness. She looked at Bing Shi as if some type of clown. It’s been a long time she had such a great time taking someone down. She liked to manipulate human emotions and feelings. She had yet to understand that she wasn’t the only one.
