Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty
Chapter 142 - 142: Loyal Maid Who Died Because of Beauty (12)

Inside Yi Yan's room, Yi Yan was sitting on a stool while staring at the teacup on the table.

"This servant greets the Madam," Yue Ran said, according to the etiquette of the palace.

Hearing Yue Ran's voice, Yi Yan finally came back to her senses and looked at Yue Ran, who was kneeling on the ground while greeting her. Even though she could not see the young girl's face due to her lowered head, her fair neck and elegant posture were all undeniably eye-catching.

It was no wonder that this young girl could catch the third prince's eye just with a glance.

But the more Yi Yan thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became.

"You can get up," Yi Yan replied coldly.

"This servant gives thanks to the Madam," Yue Ran said as she stood back up.

Looking at Yi Yan, who was obviously in the wrong mood tonight, Yue Ran thought about it, but she did not know how to speak, so she just stood quietly in place, looking as still and silent as the dead.

The silence at night was deafening in her ears.

"Yue Ran, I remember that you said before that you already have someone you like, right?" Yi Yan asked as she narrowed her eyes at the young girl in front of her.

When Yue Ran heard this, she was a little shocked. She did not expect that Yi Yan would ask her this question, and thus a blush came to her cheeks, and she smiled silently.

"Yes, this servant did not expect that the Madam would still remember this thing," Yue Ran replied shyly. "He is this servant's cousin, named Pei He."

What Yi Yan saw in front of her was a beautiful woman smiling shyly when she talked about someone she liked. Her face bloomed with love that could not be concealed. Instead, she looked more and more beautiful, with her face the color of peach blossoms that flowered, showing their full beauty in spring after a bitterly cold winter.

Yi Yan's heart was immediately dyed green, full of jealousy.

The third prince was attracted by that face of hers, by that skin of hers, so if it is destroyed, then the third prince will no longer like her that way, right?

Then she, Yi Yan, will not be polite!

The evil thoughts in her heart sprung forth, and she looked a little crazy with the rather distorted features on her face.

Yue Ran looked at Yi Yan's hysterical expression and cried out worriedly, "Madam, Madam!" Seeing that Yi Yan still did not respond to her call, she asked, "Is the Madam okay?" She frowned a little before continuing, "This servant saw that the Madam's complexion is not very good today, so should this servant call a doctor for the Madam to look at the Madam's condition?"

Yue Ran asked the latter question out of concern, which was obvious on her face. However, this did not make Yi Yan feel happy at all. She only thought that this move was just Yue Ran's move to make fun of her, as if she, Yi Yan, was the object of ridicule for Yue Ran!

Yue Ran must be laughing at her own incompetence, which was simply unforgivable!

Just thinking that in the future she will have to rely on Yue Ran's superior position to make Lu Heng like her, Yi Yan will feel extremely ashamed and indignant!

In just an instant, Yi Yan had placed all the crimes she had suffered on Yue Ran's head.

It was all Yue Ran's fault!

Yi Yan suddenly stood up and pushed Yue Ran to the ground while screaming angrily, "Do not think that I do not know what you are actually thinking right now in that head of yours! I will never let you succeed! As long as I am here and alive, there will be no possibility for you to climb into the third prince's bed with just that beauty of yours! You must have seduced him!"

Yue Ran, who was still caring about Yi Yan, sneered in her heart, but she professionally put on a wronged and teary expression on her face.

She "truly" did not know what she had done wrong to let Yi Yan suddenly treat her this way.

But after she heard of Yi Yan's angry scolding, Yue Rn seemed to have caught on to something and immediately knelt on the ground from her falling position. She hurriedly explained to try and regain her innocence: "Madam, things are not what you said. This servant really has no such thoughts about the third prince. This servant really does not have such thoughts at all!"

Yue Ran had already emphasized her words with the word "really". After all, she is only interested in her cousin, Pei He, right now and not anyone else.

Seeing Yue Ran pathetically pleading for herself in front of her (Yi Yan's) eyes, Yi Yan still did not take her (Yue Ran's) words seriously and just vented all the grievances she (Yi Yan) received from Lu Heng onto Yue Ran without caring for anything.

"No?" Yi Yan spat out this word with a terrifying sneer on her face. "No? But the third prince can still come to me and say straight to my face that he wants to get you. If not for you, who kept on seducing His Highness, how could His Highness disregard my face like this to ask for you? Do you think that I am stupid, so you can fool me like this? Who do you think I am?"

"Madam—"

"Even if you really did not do it, so what?" Yi Yan cut off Yue Ran's words and continued to speak: "Your existence from the very start is a mistake by itself. Tell me, why do you have such a seductive face to begin with, huh? Who do you actually plan to seduce with that face of yours? Tell me!"

Yi Yan yelled maddeningly at the terrified and wronged Yue Ran. Her face, at this moment, looked like those horror stories that were written in books and also like those scary psychopaths and ghosts in a horror movie. Yi Yan was as terrifying as a red-haired clown.

Yi Yan: I do not want to hear your explanations! I do not want to hear your words! I only care about myself, and the third prince is also mine! Mine, you hear me?

Yue Ran: So scary.

Ruan Ruan: So scary.

Seeing that Yue Ran was weeping silently, like the blooming pear blossoms crying with rain, with a little bit of tears that fell down her cheek as she knelt down to beg for mercy, looking so touching, pitiful, and lovable, Yi Yan only felt even more resentful and jealous of Yue Ran! Why does she have such a beautiful face?

With a vigorous wave of her hand, she slapped Yue Ran's delicate face with a loud clap!

Ruan Ruan: OMG!!!

Ruan Ruan was immensely shocked when he saw this scene playing right in front of his nonexistent eyes in Yue Ran's sea of consciousness through the system's live broadcast screen. The female protagonist is really daring to do something as suicidal as this!

Yue Ran, who could not bear the great force, fell to the ground following the slap, and a red slap mark immediately appeared on her fair and smooth cheek.

Yue Ran: Hehe. You are my main target now, my dear female protagonist. I hope that you can still live well in the future. Make sure not to show your back to me, or else.

Ruan Ruan: Not one person had ever lived well after slapping my Master's face! Hmph! Who told the female protagonist to slap my Master's face in the first place? She deserved to live a life worse than death! Oh, my pitiful Master's beautiful face! What a tragedy! (Mourns)

In this world, there is actually a kind of fragile beauty like that only written in the poems of countless scholars and writers, which makes people feel endless pity and love towards that certain person.

And this certain pitiful and lovely person is Yue Ran, who had perfectly depicted those words and who had also fallen on the ground twice right in front of her (Yi Yan's) very eyes.

"Madam," Yue Ran said as she suppressed the pain in her cheek and tried to ignore the growing hatred in her heart that had piled high like a mountain and was as deep as the sea. "This servant really did not do it at all. Madam, you have to trust this servant."

Pear blossoms are pure and flawless, always looking charming and moving in the rain.

"Madam, this servant and the Madam grew up together, so how could this servant dare to do something like seduce the third prince, who is the Madam's husband?" Yue Ran said as she pitifully tried hard to restrain her sniffles. The pain on her cheek hurt a lot, but she still persevered and continued to say, "There must really be a misunderstanding, Madam. Besides, this servant already has someone this servant likes. Have you forgotten it already, Madam?"

Yue Ran: Do you have a short-term memory like that of a goldfish, Madam?

The latter sentence reminded Yi Yan of the sentence Yue Ran had told her before and this also gave her an idea.

Yes, Yue Ran already has someone she likes. And if Yue Ran is married off right away, then the third prince will have no choice but to let Yue Ran go in this kind of situation.
