Becoming the Villain's Discarded Wife
Chapter 291

Chapter 291: Chapter 291

Su Tao settled down in Kyoto, using six thousand taels of silver to buy a small courtyard in the city.

On the first day alone, many people couldn’t stop gazing at her.

As for the neighbours’ curiosity, Su Tao just had Shuangshuang deliver some gifts, while she herself pondered about the future in her courtyard.

[Host, Chi Sheng’s task failed and it is necessary to deduct two thousand points.]

Su Tao was considering where to open a shop when the system, silent for half a month, suddenly spoke.

"Then deduct it."

Su Tao didn’t feel any pain, just continue to doodle on the paper.

The system was straightforward. Hearing her say so, it directly deducted two thousand points without further ado.

"Miss, everything you commanded has been done," Shuangshuang said excitedly after bowing.

"Has the Ice Skin Frost also been sent over?" Su Tao drew a circle on the paper and asked coldly.

"Yes, at first they were a little arrogant, but when they heard about the effects of the Ice Skin Frost, they all smiled."

They were now living in a street and alley where all the locals seemed to hold some official position. Although these positions weren’t high, they certainly felt superior. So, Shuangshuang had encountered some snubs when she was delivering the gifts.

It was only when these ladies learned about the Ice Skin Frost did they finally put on some smiles.

"Well, as long as they’ve received it." Su Tao lifted up the paper she planned half a day on after she’d finished speaking.

"Shuangshuang, come look at this, we are here.. right?"

Shuangshuang peeked at the location and nodded in agreement: "You drew wonderfully, Miss. We’re exactly here."

"So, how many silvers will I need if I bought up this section?" Su Tao pointed to an area circled on the Territory map with a teasing smile.

"This, this location is next to the main street, and it may cost a few thousand taels."

"Tomorrow, you go have a look and see if there’s a suitable shopfront, and also find out if anything strange has been happening in Kyoto." Su Tao put down her writing paper, gave a big stretch and continued seating properly.

"Shuangshuang has memorised it."

Looking at Shuangshuang as she prepared their meal, Su Tao vaguely stared at the blue sky above.

What is she planning to do now?

As the system suggested to seize luck from others and become a top existence in this world?

Currently, she is worth tens of thousands of taels. She has enough points for decades. What does her future hold? She is a bit lost.

While she was being lost, Su Tao heard a noise on her courtyard wall.

Looking up, she saw a handsome youngster on the wall, looking dazedly at her.

Su Tao was slightly annoyed, picked up a jade cup and threw it at him.

Lu Fengyun had just managed to shake off his servants and climb onto the courtyard wall when he noticed a woman in the previously vacant garden.

A very beautiful woman, at that.

He was stunned.

Just when the jade cup was about to hit him, Lu Fengyun finally reacted. While he managed to dodge the object flying towards him, he ended up falling off the wall.

Seeing that he fell in an embarrassing manner, Su Tao felt a little bit of her frustration loosen. She wrapped herself with a thin shawl and walked a little closer.

Looking at the man on the ground moaning in pain, she lightly kicked him with her foot.

"Who are you? What are you doing climbing over other people’s walls?" Shet asked.

Lu Fengyun, who was still clutching his leg, quickly explained, "You misunderstood me, Miss. I was trying to avoid my family’s servant. Since this residence has been vacant for half a year, I didn’t know someone moved in. I apologize for offending you."

Lu Fengyun’s voice trembled as he spoke, cursing the residence’s walls for being so high.

If he ended up disabled because of this, it would indeed be like lifting a rock only to drop it on his own foot.

Su Tao glanced over at her courtyard wall and noticed some footprints, which convinced her to believe him.

"Then why are you running from your own servant?" Su Tao asked curiously.

"I, I just don’t want to go on a blind date." Upon finishing his sentence, as if remembering something, he sighed. This woman probably wouldn’t understand what blind dates are.

"A blind date, is that like looking at each other?" Upon hearing the term ’blind date’ from Lu Fengyun’s mouth, Su Tao’s eyes widened slightly.

Could it be that he is also a transmigrator?

"Yes, yes, that’s it. That’s why I wanted to hide. I am really sorry." Lu Fengyun was slowly standing up while rubbing his throbbing leg.

"Who are you?" Su Tao stared at Lu Fengyun so intently that he started blushing.

"I... I am Lu Fengyun, an illegitimate child of the Minister of the Ministry of Housing."

While speaking, Lu Fengyun felt heartache,

He was a successful college student from the 21st century, how could he have transmigrated into a bastard?

Although his identity was officially an illegitimate child of the Minister of the Ministry of Housing, only he knew that he was considered redundant at home and even sometimes lower than a servant.

If the original owner of this body hadn’t committed suicide by jumping into a lake to escape the cruel abuse of his legitimate mother, he wouldn’t have ended up in this body.

If he hadn’t been displaying fragments of his knowledge in front of his stepfather intermittently, he probrably would have starved to death.

"Is that so." Su Tao nodded, appearing to be in deep thought as she said, "Do you need me to find a doctor for you, Lu Gongzi?"

Hearing her, Lu Fengyun quickly waved his hands. If his conduct was discovered by the woman’s parents, he would be skinned alive, regardless if he was dead or alive already. How could he dare let her summon a doctor for him?

"No, there’s no need. Really, there’s no need."

As he spoke, Lu Fengyun tried to climb the wall again. Su Tao was nearly amused by his antics.

"Young Master! Young Master! I knew you were here—" Babao finally managed to climb over the wall. Just as she was about to reach for her Young Master, she saw Su Tao in the distance and stopped speaking abruptly.

When did someone move into this residence?

"Babao, what are you hesitating for? Hurry up and help me up," Lu Fengyun reproached Babao. Was this the time to daydream?

Help him up already!

"Sure, sure. Young Master, give me your hand." Babao snapped out of her trance and hurriedly reached out. Using her strength, Lu Fengyun finally managed to climb over the wall.

Looking down at Su Tao in the courtyard, Lu Fengyun gritted his teeth and said, "Miss, I apologize for today’s rudeness. I will definitely bring a gift and formally apologize in the near future!"

As soon as he finished speaking, she heard a thud. Lu Fengyun and Babao had disappeared from the top of the wall.

Lu Fengyun returned to the Lu residence with the help of Babao. Since he had injured his leg, he naturally couldn’t attend the blind date with Miss Xiao.

When Madame Lu found out about his intentions, she was enraged. She let Babao take him back to their side courtyard, not even preparing his meal.

Su Tao, now knowing Lu Fengyun’s name, had someone secretly investigate him.

Since he was also a transmigrator, there must be something different about him.
