The Birth Of A Villainess

While Chu Chu was explaining what happened before Lin Xiaofei came and the reason why Yu Fangzhu came, Lin Xiaofei closed her eyes.

The tips of her fingers were cold to the touch and even her heart couldn't stop drumming against her chest. She could literally hear it beating inside her.

The intensity of what she was feeling now was making her eyes blur. Then, she suddenly rose to her feet when the manager came.

The manager who was still looking at Yu Fangzhu's back and making sure he left the ground of Bai Hua Lou finally went to the room where the young lord and Chu Chu was.

She was feeling great and patting the pocket in her skirt, feeling the gold ingots that the prince has given to her for a bit of time of Chu Chu. She didn't know why would the prince come and visit the brothel suddenly after stopping for a while now.

Well, she didn't really care about the reason. For as long as she could get some money out of it, she wouldn't even mind letting Chu Chu sleep with the prince if he wanted to.

It was really fortunate that even after she was redeemed, Chu Chu chose to stay in the brothel instead of leaving with the handsome young lord.

"Young Lord, it really is fortunate that the prince didn't take offense of your rude manners earlier." The manager said as she came into the room.

She saw the three people inside the room sitting or kneeling on the floor and frowned. "What are you three doing sitting down there?"

As soon as she said that, she saw the young lord standing up and turned to face her. She was still clueless about what was happening and saw the young lord walking towards her.

The manager was about to smile and say a few things to warn the young lord to not repeat what he had done and been courteous towards the prince when she heard him talk.

Stopping just before she could bump against the manager, Lin Xiaofei stared at the manager for a good few seconds.

Then, she suddenly asked her. "I apologize. Were you scared earlier?"

Her words didn't have any other meanings but to Su Tang who had been serving her young lady closely, she could feel that something was about to happen as her hands got sweaty and the same fear that she felt when her young miss served them poison suddenly came back.

The manager nodded her head, not knowing what was about to happen to her and said without holding back, "Of course, I was scared."

"Is that so?"

The manager nodded her head again, "Yes. My heart almost stopped beating because of what you did."

Narrowing her eyes into a sly slit as she smiled wickedly, Lin Xiaofei agreed with her with a hum then said, "Then, why don't I fix that?"

"Fix what?" The manager frowned. Then, she suddenly beamed as she assumed that the young lord would recompensate her for what had happened.

Unfortunately, she couldn't be more wrong as Lin Xiaofei reply, "Your heart."

Before the manager could comprehend Lin Xiaofei's reply, she suddenly felt the front of her hair being pulled forward. The door closed behind her as Lin Xiaofei pulled her to one side.

"Wh-what are you doing!" The manager said loudly as she tries to get the hand that was pulling her hair. Tears were at the corners of her eyes with the burning pain in the scalp.

"Fixing your heart." Said Lin Xiaofei while a smile was tugging on her lips. "You said it almost stopped with fear of that vile creature of a man. But you're still standing with your heart still beating."

"That is why… I'm going to fix it."

The manager stared at her with large eyes.

But Lin Xiaofei didn't stop smiling as she harshly grabbed the manager's chin in her hand "And you're wrong to fear that man. The person whom you should fear… is me."

Throwing the manager to the wall, Lin Xiaofei took the hairpin hidden in her sleeve and ruthlessly drove it to the manager's heart. The sharp end of the hairpin pierced through the thin fabric of the manager's dress and her skin until it went to her flesh, stabbing her heart.

Chu Chu and Su Tang didn't understand what was happening. When Lin Xiaofei walked to the manager, pulled her by the hair, and pushed her to the wall, they were stunned and couldn't speak.

It happened so fast that they couldn't react on time and it was until they saw silver glint that came from the hairpin before it drove somewhere deep inside the manager's chest that they could finally move their bodies.

Su Tang covered her mouth and fell backward. Her hands were shaking and she could feel her body swaying in and out of her consciousness.

On the other hand, Chu Chu stared eyes wide at the side profile of Lin Xiaofei. She was too shocked what had just happened that her mouth fell open and a gasp escaped her mouth.

However, Lin Xiaofei ignored them as she drove the hairpin deep inside until only the other end of the hairpin was stuck outside and covered the mouth of the manager, forcing her to swallow the guttural sound that was soon cut off as the light in her eyes disappeared.

At this point, Shen Mo who was ordered to buy a flower pastry outside came back. He pulled the door open and saw this gruesome scene as soon as he opened the door.

His eyes first landed on the two females on the floor with their faces ghastly before looking up towards Lin Xiaofei whose hand was over the manager's chest and blood was starting to stain her jade hand.

Blinking his eyes, he didn't know what to do or say at this scene.

Then, he slowly and quietly closed the door thinking that he entered the wrong room.

Unfortunately, Lin Xiaofei already saw him through her peripheral vision and said, "And where are you going, hen Mo?"
