’Is he thinking that I got afraid?’
’He is... so caring?’
Bai Yunxian wanted to tell Yun Shu that he wasn’t afraid, but he was surprised.
But Yun Shu already put him down on the sit and went out of the carriage by then.
"What’s going on? Why did you bump into the carriage all of a sudden?"
Yun Shu was about to ask the driver about the matter outside. However, a shriveling sound of whip came in her ears making her look in front.
"Bai Yunxian, I know you are inside the carriage. Get out right now!"
BL genre, be it a novel, game, movie or drama, always feels unfinished without a troublesome female character!
And fortunately, our Female Lead (the disguised Male lead) here had a harem full of the world’s most beautiful and powerful men and women.
This trouble maker Princess Taiping, Yun Niang in name, who was also the Emperor’s most doted on daughter, was one of them.
The petite looking princess, according to the story plot, was a childhood pen friend of the Main Character, Bai Yunxian.
At a little age, Bai Yunxian went to the palace once with General Bai to participate in a banquet thrown by the Emperor.
And there, he met with the Princess in the back garden of the palace ’coincidentally’ and became friends with her in just one afternoon.
After that visit, Bai Yunxian never got permission to go out of the General’s residence, so he didn’t get to meet her ever again.
However, the Princess started to keep in touch with him by sending letters actively. And the General was unable to stop this letter exchange in case the princess told on him to the Emperor.
But, the thing that made Yun Shu concerned wasn’t that this girl was a supporting female lead, but the thing about her bad luck.
Due to the influence of the Main Characters, Princess Taiping actually was shown as a stepping stone for the Male Lead to improve himself and make him vengeful and determined to avenge his friend.
This cute and petite looking girl actually died in every route, and very cruelly at that.
Yun Shu felt a little nauseous as she tried to clear her mind by slapping her cheeks.
’Let’s not think about that for now. By the way, what was she doing here? Isn’t it too early for them to have a reunion already?’
Bai Yunxian also heard the voice and recognised the person as he came out of the carriage, though the sight in front wasn’t very friendly.
"Greetings, Princess. It’s been a long time since we met, how have you been?"
Bai Yunxian showed the proper courtesy, but there was no response from the other side, until an angry roar came out of the Princess’ mouth.
"Bai Yunxian, how dare you! How dare you get married to the man I like and you didn’t even say anything! You ungrateful little b*tch!"
The Princess was fuming in rage as she threw the whip aside and ran towards Bai Yunxian, and gave him a good forehead crush.
"Ouch!"
"Oww!"
?
Yun Shu was baffled by the strange and dramatical development of the plot in front of her as she saw the both of them groaning in pain while holding their foreheads.
Even the guards and maids didn’t know what to do, so Yun Shu had no choice but to step up.
"What are you doing here, Princess? Making a fuss with my wife in front of me, are you pretending I don’t exist?"
While Yun Shu asked the girl who was helped by the mauds to get up from the ground, she also grabbed Bai Yunxian’s hand and helped him to get up.
"T-that’s not it! Lord Yun, Lady Bai and I are acquaintances of short. I didn’t mean to disrespect you! I-I just couldn’t control myself for a while."
Princess Taiping seemed to get flustered as she panicked, her cheeks went rosy from the embarrassment of making herself look like a fool in front of her idol.
"If my wife is one of your acquaintances, then you shouldn’t treat her like that, Princess. The Royal Tutor didn’t teach you etiquette for this."
Yun Shu was already a person of strict morals, but she became even stricter when facing her cousins and siblings.
It was a part of her settings, and she had no choice but to carry on this image.
"I’m sorry, cousin. Please don’t tell this toFather Emperor, okay? I promise I won’t do something like this ever again!"
Yun Niang wanted to grab on Yun Shu’s sleeve and whine, but Yun Shu stepped away from her as she gave the girl a strict look.
"Yunxian, do you have anything to say to the Princess? We need to get back early."
"It’s alright, my lord. I’m fine. I would like to have a chat with the Princess, may I?"
’What is he planning?’
Though Yun Shu had some doubts, she decided to let him talk out with Yun Niang. Because she was too tired to deal with that loudmouth girl after shrieking her heart out in the court and comforting Bai Yunxian all the way.
Bai Yunxian nodded his head as he walked up to Yun Niang. However, the young princess wasn’t able to control her fleeting rage towards Bai Yunxian as she yelled at him again while holding both his arms.
"You traitor, how could you do this to me? You knew, you knew that... I-I..."
"That I had a crush on my cousin! How could you steal your friends’ first love for yourself! You selfish woman!"
"Boohoo..."
"I’m sorry, Princess, for breaking your heart. But it was arranged through our families and approved by His Majesty. There is nothing I can do about it!"
Tears flowed out of Bai Yunxian’s eyes as he cried, looking all pitiful and aggrieved.
?!
While the Princess was pretending to cry, and Bai Yunxian joined her to grieve,Yun Shu fell into an awkward situation.
