I Married A Disabled Tyrant After Transmigrating-Chapter 6

Three Dragons (2)

Qing Ye was the guard in charge of patrolling in the tyrant’s manor. When she married into this place, Ao Qin had also given them a few guards and maids for the sake of his image. The head of the guards was Qing Ye, while the head of the maids was Fuliu. Although both Qing Ye and Fuliu’s strength did not exceed the middle of Rank 2, they were still more than enough to deal with two girls who were at the beginning of Rank 1.

The task Ao Qin had given them was to monitor her and Bai Shuiyao, and report to Ao Qin on a regular basis.

Oddly enough, this Qing Ye was said to be indifferent to any beauty, but perhaps it was that the heroine’s aura was just too strong, and from the minute he saw Bai Shuiyao, he had fallen inextricably in love with her.

It was precisely because of his care that Bai Shuiyao was able to get by so swimmingly in the tyrant’s manor like a fish in water. As a dowry handmaiden, she could completely ignore the original Mu Wanwan, her mistress, and also disregard her master in name, the tyrant, and idled about every day.

Now, she even managed to cajole Qing Ye into risking his life to help them escape. Mu Wanwan was even beginning to admire Bai Shuiyao a little.

Bai Shuiyao bit her rosy lips and pulled out the map, “Look, we are in the innermost part now. When the evening shift change happens, you will come here to meet with me…”

But Mu Wanwan looked at the simple map and frowned.

She had an impression of the place where the female supporting character died; it was at the back door of the tyrant’s large manor. Also, the tyrant’s manor was equipped with many hidden contraptions. Although the tyrant wasn’t very good at setting up formations, he had bought many from the outside world, and they were hidden in various places in the tyrant’s manor.

However, none of these was mentioned on the map. As a small guard leader, Qing Ye would more or less know a little about these. It seems like he had no intention of helping Bai Shuiyao escape after all. This map had most likely been drawn to coax her, and cannot be trusted.

Mu Wanwan sighed, “I’m not running away.”

As soon as Bai Shuiyao heard her words, she found it difficult to restrain the anger in her heart——

Since last night, Mu Wanwan had been constantly refuting her opinions. When they were at home in the past, with their father around, this person had always been obsequious and went along with whatever she said. It hasn’t even been that long since Mu Wanwan had married into the tyrant’s manor, and now, without her father to back her up, this mistress in name was starting to act up.

She didn’t want to escape, then why did she bother listening to her go on for so long? Was she taking her for a joke?

Bai Shuiyao’s face flushed with a pale, angry red; she pursed her lips and looked like she was about to cry, “Wanwan, I’m doing this for your own good. If you stay here and keep serving that disabled tyrant, your entire life will be over.”

She wept like a pear blossom bathed in the rain, looking super b*tchy.

Mu Wanwan sneered at her inwardly. She didn’t have the energy to play pretend with her last night, but she won’t allow her to perform in front of her today. She didn’t read so many family feud stories for nothing!

They could see who was the more disgusting one.

Mu Wanwan pinched her thigh secretly; her face seemed to be affected by Bai Shuiyao, and her voice carried a tearful tone, “Yaoyao, don’t say anymore, I know.”

She stepped forward and held Bai Shuiyao’s hand. “I know you’re the one who cares most for me, and you’re always good to me, but I can’t leave now.”

“I’ve thought about it. You and I were sent here bearing the Mu family name. You are a maid, so even if you run away, nothing will happen, nor will you implicate Father. But if I run away, they probably wouldn’t let you off either.

“No matter what, you’re just a maid, and it won’t be a big deal if you escape. You can even safeguard your life and Father’s name. My decision to not run away is also for your own good.”

1 Mister Long: The Chinese character for his surname is 龙, pronounced Long, meaning dragon.

2 chongxi: 冲喜; A kind of folk belief behaviour in China; it is to let a patient who has not healed for a long time marry someone, and use this “happy event” to “flush” away bad luck in order to achieve the effect of curing the disease. Sometimes it is also possible to let the children marry and give the “good fortune” to their sick parents.
