All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human

Chapter 344: Chapter 344: The Abused Heroine Awakens (20)

After seeing off Jing Xiyu, Qiann Yan reviewed the memories of this person in her mind.

In the original host’s memory, Jing Xiyu was the same kind of person: cheerful, lively, a carefree young man untroubled by any mundane worldly matters.

Almost everyone who knew Jing Xiyu would say that he was like jade, clean like a lotus. This indicates that Jing Xiyu, despite being born in the Imperial Palace, remained pure and unsullied by anything.

However, in the original storyline, Jing Xiyu did not have as much involvement and did not interact much with the original host. The most he did was greet the original host affectionately as ’third sister-in-law,’ treating her with great respect, which was the most respectful anyone had been toward her in the host’s experience.

”How much does the original host know about Jing Xiyu?”

System 666 answered: [Host, Miss Cheng said she didn’t know much, only that he was quite clean. She was always entangled with the two brothers, Jing Yunzhou and Jing Lingyu, and had no time to observe others. Sometimes her defiance led her to die prematurely, preventing her from knowing what would happen afterward.]

This meant no more information could be obtained.

Why did Jing Xiyu suddenly come to show goodwill? She couldn’t believe he merely brought her food out of pity.

In the evening, the servants from the Prince Mansion brought Qiann Yan food.

It was according to her specifications.

She inspected it and found nothing unusual inside, but still asked the person who delivered the meal to taste it, then started eating.

”Alright, you may leave.”

Qiann Yan noticed the few maids who tasted the food looked relieved, feeling the intention was apparent—these people intended some mischief but seemed scared enough not to carry it out.

Want to tamper with her food, maybe in another lifetime.

Jing Lingyu probably didn’t want to mess with her recently, and would be resting to heal.

After finishing her meal, Qiann Yan continued practicing in her room. As for where Qiao Xin had run off to, she wasn’t concerned. The people from Prince Mansion wouldn’t be of any use to her; in any case, she did need people who she could actually utilize.

Minister’s Mansion was not trustworthy; this person must be found by herself.

With these thoughts, Qiann Yan immersed herself in practice. She must improve her skills before Jing Lingyu recovered.

The next day, Jing Lingyu was supposed to take the Princess Consort into the palace to see the Emperor. There was no Empress, and Jing Lingyu’s mother had long passed away.

Jing Lingyu declared himself to be seriously ill, thus postponing the event.

Jing Lingyu had instructed the servants to prepare her meals but hadn’t assigned any tasks to them, and no personnel had been sent over.

Qiann Yan didn’t mind this; she needed to head out now.

”Princess Consort, where are you going?” Qiao Xin quickly ran up to ask as she saw Qiann Yan was about to leave the yard.

Qiann Yan turned back, ”What, do you have an opinion?”

”No, this servant doesn’t mean that,” pressured by Qiann Yan’s aura, Qiao Xin’s legs trembled, ”this servant thinks it’s better not to wander around, after all, you’re new here...”

”Do I need you to instruct me on my actions? Before, I didn’t see you, but now that I’m leaving, you’re meddling?” Qiann Yan was truly questioning whether there was something wrong with Qiao Xin’s head; she had already made her stance clear, yet Qiao Xin still eagerly approached. Wasn’t she just asking for a rebuke?

”Perhaps you should go back to the Minister’s Mansion.” Qiann Yan said, ”You see that I’m not getting along well with the Prince, your situation wouldn’t be much better.”

Unexpectedly, Qiao Xin knelt down instantly.

Qiann Yan: ”Since you wish to stay, say less.”
