I BECAME THE STEPMOTHER OF MY EX-HUSBAND

 

Chapter 22 Part 2: Chili Pepper

 


^^

 

"Zhao Wangfei, stay."

  

Zhao Wangfei stopped in confusion, when she turned around she saw Lin Wei Xi, her heart unconcerned, and her expression was also very impatient: "Who are you, dare to call this Wangfei?"

  

"In terms of identity and status I am definitely not as good as Wangfei, but in terms of being a human being I am still more qualified than Zhao Wangfei. I called you down this time because I wanted to teach you how to conduct yourself and how to educate your child."

  

"Presumptuous!"

  

"Wangfei is standing here with straight face only because there was no accident. If the little wangye really pushes people off the stage today, there are deep water under the stands, and Lady Liu is still pregnant, and if there was a slight mistake, there will be one corpse with two lives. Harming this pregnant women and unborn child, Wangfei and little Wangye accumulate some virtues for yourself, in the future are you not afraid of retribution to your descendants?”

 

Mentioning retribution of one’s descendants in this clansmen society was seriously ruthless, Zhao Wangfei immediately became furious: "You are presumptuous! Who are you, this Wangfei has to punish you for a crime of great disrespect!"

  

"Speaking of great disrespect, it still unable to say who is plotting the wrongdoing. Little Wangye standing behind a group of womenfolk. Not far away was Grand Princess Shou Kang. Little Zhao Wang secretly pushing people, who knows if he originally want to push the princess or someone else, the person just admit to make a mistake for not being careful and let Lady Liu suffer the crime on your behalf. If Wangfei wants to go to Empress Dowager to ask her to become the judge, we can go together, so that Empress Dowager can decide what to do to your son."

  

Zhao Wangfei was speechless, this matter in the end was her son's wrongdoing, she could endlessly pester Yan Wang, but in front of Empress Dowager Qian, Zhao Wang Mansion would need to take the responsibilities. Lin Wei Xi ridiculed her without restrain like this it’s because she was sure that Zhao Wangfei would not dare to make trouble in front of the Empress Dowager.

  

But even so, Zhao Wangfei couldn't swallow this tone. She looked at Lin Wei Xi and sneered: "Do you think because you didn’t say your name this Wangfei cannot find out who you are? Just you wait, this wangfei will make you regret it until you come crying to Zhao Wang Mansion to apologize."

  

"Sure." Lin Wei Xi folded both hands in front her, tilted her head slightly at Zhao Wangfei, and smiled cutely, "What Zhao Wangfei intend to do to me or to my family? Also no need to trouble Wangfei to investigate it. I can tell you directly, my name is Lin Wei Xi, my mother has passed away for many years, and my father is Marquis Zhongyong Lin Yong. Like the former Zhao Wang, he also died for the country and died in the battlefield. If Wangfei wants to find someone to make a dirty trick, you don’t have to hire too many people. I am the only one in my family. It is enough to come at me. When Wangfei acts, I will go to the capital magistrate to beat the drums and cry injustice, saying that Zhao Wang Mansion oppressing the daughter of a martyr. When the time comes, let's see who the people's hearts will side to."

  

"You..." Zhao Wangfei was so angry as she pointed at Lin Wei Xi with her fingers and gritted her teeth with hatred. "Do you think with this kind of origin this Wangfei unable to do something to you?"

  

"Don't dare, I learned from Wangfei. Wangfei can use the reason of being killed in the battle to run against Yan Wang, and I can run against you with my own identity. Zhao Wangfei is an orphan and a widow, and I am also a martyr lone daughter. Wangfei want to show miserableness to sell pity right? What a coincidence, so am I."

  

Zhao Wangfei looked at Lin Wei Xi while gritting her teeth, almost crushing a pair of silver teeth, and finally gave Lin Wei Xi a fierce look, brushed her sleeves and walked away. Lin Wei Xi watched Zhao Wangfei went away with that evil boy who relied on his young age. She sneered without trying to hide and said directly to the backs of the people of the Zhao Wang Mansion: "Yan Wang disciplined little Zhao Wang for his own good, if Wangfei really loves your son, you should bring him to the Shen family and Yan Wang to apologize, afterward strictly discipline, and not help evildoer doing evil. If not, these evil creature retribution sooner or later will return to you."

  

Zhao Wangfei could not listen to other people talk bad about her son. She stopped and turned around. From a long distance people could feel the poison in her eyes. At this time, Gu Mingda walked to Lin Wei Xi's side and respectfully leaned over: "Miss Lin, it's windy outside. It’s time to go back."

  

This was Yan Wang silent statement and it could not be challenged. If you want to use dead man to make a fuss, that’s alright, but if you want to move against Lin Wei Xi, then don't blame her for being merciless.

  

Zhao Wangfei understood Gu Hui Yan's silent deterrence, she could only stomp her feet with anger and left bitterly.

  

Lin Wei Xi won a big victory. She sighed into the green water pool and snorted: "Sure enough, come outside to breathe, and the tightness on the chest immediately improved. This kind of people just lack scolding, let's go, let’s return to the house."

  

Lin Wei Xi turned around. Across the twisty water corridor, she saw Gu Hui Yan standing upright with some people. Lin Wei Xi was embarrassed, but still pretended that nothing happened, and walked back the secluded corridor with a calm expression.

  

Although the place where Lin Wei Xi and Zhao Wangfei talked was far away from the water pavilion, thanks to the quiet surroundings, even if it was not clear, the conversations could still be heard. Gu Hui Yan watched Lin Wei Xi went through the corridor, her eyes lowered slightly, her movements were so cute, completely did not show her baring fangs and brandish claws manner.

  

Shen Ming Da was now full of a sense of disillusionment, if it weren't for Yan Wang standing here, he almost thought he had hallucinations. He saw that Lin Wei Xi was lovable and charming. Originally thought this was a weak Liu Fufeng1 kind of beauty, but what did he hear just now? Gu Hui Yan smiled slightly, unaware whether he was talking to himself or saying to the person next to him: "If the person being targeted is not one’s own, listening to her scolding it’s quite enjoyable."

  

If Zhou Mao Cheng was here he must felt the same way. Gu Cheng Yao thought about it, silently nodding.

  

The conversation between Zhao Wangfei and Lin Wei Xi could be vaguely heard even inside the waterside pavilion. Liu Su Niang looked shocked and felt admiration. Gao Ran at the side was very unhappy in her heart.

  

She was the daughter-in-law of the mansion. Yan Wang was pestered by that shrew, and it was not her who chased her out, but an outsider.

  

Gao Ran twisted the handkerchief in her hand hard, if it could be done all over again, she would definitely not leave it to Lin Wei Xi.

  

Things were so troubled, Liu Su Niang was in no mood to go watch the dragon boat. The eunuch on the emperor's side had come to urge Gu Hui Yan several times, and he could not refuse any more, so he had to return back. Gao Ran also took this opportunity to retreat and returned to the womenfolk place to continue socializing as Yan Wang Mansion people. Lin Wei Xi, this idler, had nothing to do, so she stayed with Liu Su Niang.

  

The two of them sat for a while, Shen Ming Da had gone to the front to take a leave of absence, and then came to pick Liu Su Niang home. Liu Su Niang reluctantly bid farewell to Lin Wei Xi. Lin Wei Xi watched Shen Ming Da carefully holding Liu Su Niang away, and the infinite warmth could be seen from the back of the two of them. She was the only one left in the water pavilion, and Lin Wei Xi continued to sit, sighing into the silent air.

  

After a while, it started to rain. Wan Xing looked anxious: "Miss, we didn't bring umbrella, what should we do?"

  

Lin Wei Xi looked outside the window to the line of raindrops, indifferently said, "What can be done, just wait. Yan Wang unlikely to leave me here."

 

As soon as the voice fell, there was sound of footsteps from the corner, the umbrella’ surface gradually raised, and the face of the incoming person gradually appeared before Lin Wei Xi's eyes along with the patter of rain.

  

It's Gu Cheng Yao.

 

TN: The title is referring to LWX because she’s so spicy.




1 Weak Liu Fufeng describes a women with a weak posture and gentle movements. It came from ‘Dream of Red Mansion’ one of Chinese classic literature, it’s Baoyu’s impressions when he first saw Daiyu.

  6. ahhh, he's completely charmed now. Without an outstanding background and lineage backing Wei Xi up and pressuring down on others and a much more gorgeous outer appearance on top, GCY must've fallen head over heels.
    Before, I betcha he only saw her as someone who was trying to oppress him and his true love (strict management of the estate and "deceived" him with the fish shaped token), but now, in his eyes, Wei Xi must be like a fierce little kitten. *shudders* Gives me goose bumps just writing it down.
