Chapter 2: Putting Her Vicious Older Sister In Her Place
They were coming closer.
Luo Qing Luan was able to clearly hear the footsteps of those two people, mistress and servant.
It’s just that as they came closer, they no longer made a sound. Even their walking speed became slower. They walked quietly on tiptoe as if afraid that she would hear them approach.
She didn’t have to think to know what those two were up to. Luo Qing Luan’s manner was that of someone who’s completely unaware, sitting by the pond side as before, hands moving continuously. Her mouth was even muttering, "Oh no! If I don’t quickly tidy myself up, what if Father finds out. He’ll definitely......"
"My god!"
Suddenly, a woman’s world shaking screech sounded from behind her. "Second Lady, please don’t commit suicide by jumping into the water!"
The sound of hurried footsteps approached, rapidly coming towards her. Luo Qing Luan pretended to be startled with a jump and quickly turned her head to look. Sure enough, she saw Chun Mei rushing towards her. The vicious appearance of that face clearly showed that she wanted to push her into the pond once again.
Luo Qing Luan very appropriately cried out in alarm, her face covered in panic. Yet when Chun Mei was just about to touch her body, she grabbed Chun Mei’s wrist. "Chun Mei, you...what do you want to do..."
Chun Mei was startled into shouting out loud. She made a futile attempt to forcefully push Qing Luan into the water, but now that her wrist had been grabbed, she surprisingly couldn’t withdraw it either. She also yelled frantically, "Eldest Lady, the Second Lady grabbed my hand..."
"Fool!"
Luo Qing Shuang, who was standing by the side waiting to watch a good scene, could no longer hold her temper. She lifted the hem of her dress and rushed over.
"Sister, save me! Chun Mei wants to push me down there..."
"You shut up! She pushed you? I also want to push you!"
How could she still control herself. Luo Qing Shuang’s face filled with resentment as she looked at her own younger sister. That face which returned to its original appearance after soaking in water made her heart constrict even more with envy. "Why didn’t you drown for good just now? Don’t you know that I have been looking forward to your death? Luo Qing Luan, I’m telling you, the person who Fifth Princes likes is me..."
Luo Qing Luan simply didn’t have any interest in waiting until her sister finished speaking. Her eyes flashed with a crafty light as she used all the strength in her hands and suddenly pulled Luo Qing Shuang into the water.
Splash!! Splash!!
A huge splash was created in the pond. Luo Qing Luan flapped desperately as she wanted to cry for help. But quick as lightning, Luo Qing Luan pushed firmly on her head and pressed her down. The pond water immediately filled her mouth and stopped any sound from coming out. Besides struggling nonstop by waving her arms, Qing Shuang’s life or death was entirely under Luo Qing Luan’s control.
No one had discovered that at a distant rock garden behind the pond, a grave and stern man holding a jasper flute was standing quietly. Although separated by distance, he had been watching this direction attentively. It seemed that he saw what happened at the pond very clearly.
And when he saw Luo Qing Luan pull Luo Qing Shuang into the water, his expressionless face actually showed some emotion. When Luo Qing Luan pushed Luo Qing Shuang down into the water, he actually smiled faintly. When he watched the servant’s expression make huge changes as she stood by the pond, the corners of his mouth finally curved upwards as he spit out an indifferent word. "Interesting!"
He had accompanied the fifth prince, Nangong Chen, in paying a visit to the general’s mansion. He was feeling stuffy and bored, so he came out for a walk. Didn’t expect to see such an amusing scene. Wasn’t it widely circulated that the second Miss Luo’s appearance was tasteless, the ugliest woman in the entire state of Western Chu? Why are his eyes telling him that this was completely not the case? And as for the eldest Miss Luo, it’s rumored that her fame spread far and wide, talented, educated and well-balanced, yet presently......
Sure enough, rumors shouldn’t be believed!
The corners of Nalan Ye’s mouth curved slightly, as he coldly watched attentively, without the slightest intention of coming forward to rescue anybody.
After Luo Qing Shuang had swallowed quite a few mouthfuls of water and already became so dizzy that she couldn’t even yell for someone to save her, Luo Qing Shuang finally relaxed her hand and crawled towards the water’s surface again.
"You......you actually......" Chun Mei pointed a finger at her in fright and retreated step by step.
"What about me?" Luo Qing Luan looked at her neither fiercely nor indifferently as she wiped away the water drops on her face and continued. "As for you, Chun Mei, if you still won’t go and save your mistress, I’m afraid she’ll truly drown to death."
Chun Mei cried out in alarm. At once, she wanted to run over, but just as she lifted her foot, she looked at Luo Qing Luan and fear spread over her face again.
What in the world is going on? How did the second lady become so daring? Not only did she want to drown her older sister, even the expression on her face was entirely different from the past, permeating ice-coldness from head to toe.
Not daring to come closer in the slightest, but hearing the unceasing plopping sound of the struggle in the pond, she also didn’t dare to leave.
If her mistress were to drown, she wouldn’t be able to live either!
Standing by the side of the pond, Luo Qing Luan wasn’t the least bit uneasy. Someone who dared to harm her was already lucky if she didn’t immediately put in needles such that the perpetrator would suffer while living yet couldn’t die even if they wanted to.
However, this Luo Qing Shuang, humph, temporarily still shouldn’t be killed. At least, not publicly by her own hands.
When she saw that pink clothed figure gradually lose strength and slowly sink deeper, Luo Qing Luan was going to make a move, but then she heard a voice come from a place not far away.
"Why is there movement by the pond? What in the world happened?"
Having heard this questioning voice, Luo Qing Luan laughed coldly, "Sure enough, they came just in time." Her current body’s father, Luo Cheng, Generalissimo Luo came, apparently accompanied by more than one person.
Smiling faintly, Luo Qing Luan looked at the bewildered servant, Chun Mei, then threw herself once again into the pond.
