The Birth Of A Villainess

In the guardsman's hands were a thin silk fabric that were only familiar to a woman. Any man who saw it would immediately have question marks on top of their heads when they see it the first time but some men who likes to visit the brothel area of the empire would certainly recognize what this piece of fabric was as soon as they see it anywhere.

At this moment, Lin Xiaofei still hasn't recovered from her shock and the guardsman was already heading towards Yu Fangzhu.

With a polite smile on his lips, the guardsman pinched the thin strap of the silk and waved the piece of fabric in front of Yu Fangzhu's eyes.

Yu Fangzhu frowned at the sight of it and was confused why would the guardsman bring a duoduo, or a woman's undergarments in this filthy dungeon and wave it before his face?

Was this guardsman out of his mind?

Carrying the piece of fabric that most women in this era would wear underneath their inner clothes, the guardsman was not disappointed when he saw that there was only a glimpse of confusion passing through the prince's eyes. Instead, he became even more expectant as he anticipated the prince's reaction once he found out what is the purpose and role of this fabric that day.

Conflicted between wanting to cry and laugh, Lin Xiaofei didn't have any words to say towards the guardsman. She let him do as he wanted for as long as he could get Yu Fangzhu to answer her questions.

As for Yu Fangzhu's feelings after this, she didn't care. It was better for him to know what it felt like wearing this anyway to teach him a lesson.

"Let me go! You savages! Get this thing off me!" Yu Fangzhu shouted in anger.

Soon enough, Yu Fangzhu, who was subjected to wear a woman's undergarments and stripped off his clothes screamed both in pain and humiliation.

The guardsman seriously shook his head as he said, "No can do, your highness. If I take that off, that would certainly reveal all of the skin of your body."

"Anyway, there is still this one thing that I need to put on you." The guardsman revealed another piece of fabric that brought a blush on Lin Xiaofei's cheeks and turned to her as he solemnly said, "I'm sorry, milady. But can you please turn around so you won't be able to see the unsightly view of his naked body?"

What unsightly view?!

What naked body?!

Isn't the prince already stripped from the top of his head to his toes?!

Lin Xiaofei wanted to protest but seeing that agonizing expression on the prince's face, she kept silent as she did as what was told to her.

However, she paused and said, "I'll leave for now and take a break. You handle things here and see if your can pry his mouth open."

The guardsman was delighted and nodded. Her words meant that he could use any method he knew to torture and make Yu Fangzhu talk clearer than a parrot imitating a human.

Closing the door behind her back, Lin Xiaofei didn't turn her head back when she heard Yu Fangzhu screaming in a horrifying manner.

After walking and arriving at the courtyard shared by her and Qu Xing Xu, Lin Xiaofei didn't expect that the duke would be still sitting next to the window.

She kept an eye of him from the corner of her eyes as she went to change out of her clothes when she saw him move.

"Where were you?" Qu Xing Xu's voice was heard behind her. There was a hint of sadness and bitterness in his voice.

Without turning around to face him, Lin Xiaofei responded, "I took a visit to the dungeon."

Qu Xing Xu stepped closer to her. The warmth coming from his body was felt behind her back.

Suddenly, a pair of arms grabbed her waist.

A gasp escaped Lin Xiaofei as she didn't expect him to do this and wanted to scold him but upon feeling hit heated breath fanning the side of her hair and neck, she chose not to do as she was thinking of doing just now.

"What's wrong?" She asked him.

Lin Xiaofei felt his arms tightening and didn't get any response from him.

"Qu Xing Xu, I don't have the ability to read your mind and if you have something to say, tell me now." She helplessly said. She wanted to face him but was held in place by Qu Xing Xu.

Qu Xing Xu knew that she couldn't read his mind. But still, he couldn't help but pout and frown when he heard her say that she visited the dungeons.

"I don't want you to go there." She heard him say.

Knowing what he meant by his words, Lin Xiaofei didn't know if she should laugh or cry. Was this big guy jealous and sulking over this matter?

When she entered the courtyard, she saw him next to the window, looking out. Has he been sulking since she left his side when they arrived in the Qu residence?

Feeling touched from this, Lin Xiaofei didn't have the heart to tell him that he didn't have to mind her business considering that they both agreed that she will solely solve her matters with Yu Fangzhu.

Sighing, Lin Xiaofei put her hands on top of his arms. She felt the hardness and smoothness of his muscles and skin that he accumulated after years of battling against thousands of enemies outside the borders of the empire.

Caressing and drawing circles on his skin, Lin Xiaofei said, "But if I don't go there, how will I punish Yu Fangzhu from what he's done all these years? I want to be there when he dies and in pain."

"I still don't want you to go there." Was what she could only get out of him.

"Qu Xing Xu, Yu Fangzhu and I are over since the moment I found out that I no longer hold any value to him. He didn't really love me and only used me like a toy he could bend at his will. And I was young and easy to fool when I first met him, the perfect prey he could get in the sea full of fish." Lin Xiaofei didn't hide anything from him. It was no use to put a screen on his eyes when he was no fool and could quickly understand her now that he knew who she really is. "That is why there is no need for you to feel jealous over a dead man. I have no lingering feelings for Yu Fangzhu."

"You're wrong." Qu Xing Xu said.

Lin Xiaofei turned her head aside and was surprise at his reply. She frowned but felt him leaning his head on the crook of her neck as he took a whiff of her sweet fragrance.

"You're wrong." He repeated and before Lin Xiaofei could get angry at him for refuting her. He said, "You're not a fool and not an easy prey. You're my woman, my wife, and my life. You worth more than the world and my life together to me."
