Quick Transmigrating Second Female Lead’s Counterattack - Chapter 285

Ch 285: Daughter of the Republic VS Chinese Opera Singer (11.17)

Didn’t he know that her biggest reverse scale was her husband? You say you want to scheme against whom? Unfortunately he wanted to scheme against her husband.

She stretched her foot out and kicked him again. He still seemed confused, so she continued to kick.

“Oww… Nian XunMi, don’t bully intolerably!” Chairman Wang recovered from the pain and shouted.

XunMi spat disdainfully, “I’m bullying you, what about it? If you have the ability, get up and beat me, ah!”

She couldn’t help but step on him again, successfully changing Chairman Wang’s face to the color of pig liver.

“Permit you to be bad, permit you to have crooked thoughts, permit you to think about calculating against my family’s Marshal, I’ll stomp you to death!”

After kicking him more than ten times, XunMi felt a little bit better. She sat down on the chair, poured herself a cup of tea, and took a sip.

After saying so much, her mouth was still very dry. She looked at the person on the ground and noticed his expression was a little abnormal.

It’s all this stuff, it was all very upsetting. Dealing with it earlier would be better, so as to avoid disaster later.

“Mu Cheng.” She shouted towards the door leading to the next room, and the door opened immediately.

In an instant, XunMi felt herself being wrapped up into someone’s embrace, his chest transmitting a constant warmth and peace of mind.

“Wife, I’m so happy.” Ziju BaiLin tightened his arms around XunMi, and a hundred flowers bloomed in his heart. He was terribly happy.

In fact, he had always been afraid. He was afraid that his wife was being forced to be with him, even if she told him to believe her, told him she liked him.

After all, in the beginning she was snatched by him, and after all was said and done, he was somewhat lacking in confidence.

But now, he felt like he was the happiest person in the world.

“If you’re happy, then go to work. First take this stuff back to hand over to their associates to handle matters.”

XunMi firmly seized Ziju BaiLin’s arm. This guy’s strength was really serious; her waist must be red with how tightly he was holding her.

Speaking of, the Male Lead’s favorability rating still needed to be brushed up. She stroked her chin and her eyes lit up.

She could first quietly arrest him, and then in the open, be the one to release him. The degree of favorability would definitely rise.

Anyway, the timing right now wasn’t good. They could not yet shed all pretenses of cordiality with the Western Region, and they could not really detain him. Sooner or later he would have to return.

En, she could go back and discuss it with her husband.

In less than one night, Chairman Wang could no longer stand the torture, and he confessed everything.

Early the next morning, Mu Cheng brought a team of people over to openly arrest him.

When Shi HuaYi was escorted away at gunpoint, he was completely confused. What was going on?

When he saw Ziju BaiLin, his anger could no longer be suppressed: “Marshal Ziju, what is the meaning of this?”

Ziju BaiLin threw him a cold glance, and his tone was murderous. “Major General Shi is really good, huh? You’re more ruthless than your father. You actually dared to think about killing me in my own territory. You’re really not bad. Mu Cheng, take him down and lock him up. If his father doesn’t come exchange weapons and ammunition for him, just keep him locked up. I’d like to see who is more important to your father, his son, or his concubines?”

He’d already discussed it with his wife yesterday evening. Getting a free lunch and so on, was also feasible.[1]

That old thing Shi YongFei had always only had this one son, HuaYi. His capabilities weren’t bad. When the crucial time arrived, he may compromise.

Even if he didn’t compromise in the end, there were plenty of methods to make them obediently hand over the weapons.

Shi HuaYi was unable to offer even a couple of words in his defense before he was escorted away by several soldiers.

Everything was ready, so Jun YuQing took a team of men and horses and set off, beating the gongs and drums all along the way.

Before they had even left Li Hua Province, the news that the Western Region’s Major General had planned to assassinate the bandit marshal had already flown like a bird, flying farther and farther.

Two days later, XunMi was sitting in FuRong Restaurant.

She didn’t understand why the good Female Lead would suddenly ask to meet her, and then when they met, she came in acting like XunMi was her personal enemy.

What the hell, she really didn’t do anything. Was the Female Lead crazy?

“Miss Hai Tang, I don’t know why you’re looking for me?”

With great difficulty, Nian Xue’er resisted the urge to go up and tear off XunMi’s smiling face. She spent a great deal of effort grinding out each word, “Nian XunMi, you are not a daughter of the Nian family. You’re just fake goods.”

You snatched everything from me. Now that I have a second chance, why is this still the same result?

XunMi was astonished, “You…” She wanted to ask how she knew, but she’d only gotten one word out before she was cut off by Nian Xue’er.

“You’re shocked, right? You don’t believe me, right? I’m telling you, it’s all true. Very soon, you will no longer be the young miss of the Nian family, and the real young miss of the Nian family, that is, me, will take back what belongs to me.”

Nian Xue’er did not hold back the expression on her face, which was startlingly strange and unsightly.

This was really shocking for XunMi. The script was wrong, ah. She had some serious questions.

The Female Lead should not be like this originally, but now it had become like this.

Even if one tried to explain it away by saying her big butterfly wings instigated it, she wouldn’t believe it!

‘BaoBao, you come here! You fucking cheated me again! Why didn’t you tell me the Female Lead was such a big BUG?’

What the hell, this daddy still stupidly wanted to wish you well, but the facts are telling me that you are always wanting to hurt me.[2]

I can’t happily play anymore, I’m waving goodbye.

“Hahahaha, Nian XunMi, you must be panicking right now, right? Or do you think it isn’t true? I’m telling you, Nian WenHao has already discovered the truth from that year, and I am the child of the Nian family. Madam Nian has already decided to receive me back into the Nian family. From now on, I’m now the Nian family’s young miss. You’re nothing more than a bastard child from who knows where.”

Nian Xue’er felt carefree. She’d dreamed of crushing Nian XunMi under her feet. Now that she’d finally had her wishes fulfilled, she felt so excited that her blood was boiling.

If she hadn’t unexpectedly seen Nian XunMi that day, she wouldn’t have known that no matter how hard she tried to prevent it, Marshal Ziju would still fall for Nian XunMi.

How could she accept it? So she sent all the clues about her origins into Nian WenHao’s hands.

She had to return to the Nian family as soon as possible, and then she could deal with Nian XunMi.

She’d like to see how a woman who had lost the protection of the Nian family could still survive in these troubled times.

This was typical to forget about XunMi’s bandit marshal. Or perhaps Nian Xue’er was confident she was capable of catching Marshal Ziju. Therefore, she never placed XunMi and Ziju BaiLin together.

XunMi didn’t know what to say as she stared blankly. The script was different. How should she answer with her next line?

It was really…

“Miss Hai Tang, what is your intention in telling me this?”

Even if she was no longer the Nian family’s young miss, she was still the Marshal’s woman. What made the Female Lead think that if she lost the Nian family, she would be a pitiful little thing that had lost the whole world?

If this really made her a pitiful little thing, she really didn’t know if there was anything that was actually pitiful in this world.

[Host, your older sister is approaching. She’s one hundred meters away.]

“Nian XunMi, do you know what I hate the most about you? It’s this appearance you have that looks like you don’t mind anything.”

Translator’s Notes
[1] The original idiom used here was something about empty gloves and a white wolf, and I don’t understand the origins, but it refers to conning someone into giving you something for nothing/very little. The way it was written was making an allusion to the idiom, so it seemed appropriate to replace with another idiom. Unfortunately, we don’t have a precise equivalent in English (that I could think of off-hand), so I decided to go with ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch,’ though that’s exactly what they’re trying to get here.

[2] She’s calling herself laozi, which is a word for father, but also an arrogant way to say ‘I’ since it places the speaker in the position of an elder.
