Chapter 71 - But I Like It



The silence that descended in the pavilion was deafening. Everyone was unable to speak when they decided to put the beautiful young lady in their eyes and have their breaths taken away from them.

Most of the young ladies and noble sons sitting there wore a surprised look in their faces while some wore a placid mask. However, deep inside the thoughts of those young ladies were united as they wished for that one young lady to have misfortune befall her way.

Lin Xiaofei\'s eyes turned cold as she weighed in her mind whether she should answer the princess or not.

Liu Shishi bit her lips and looked anxiously at her friend and wanted to speak for Lin Xiaofei. However, if she did that, there would be an instance that the princess will take offense over her actions and that will reflect badly to her father who was still climbing his way up to a higher rank in the imperial court.

Of course, Lin Xiaofei didn\'t expect anything from her nor from anyone. She didn\'t trust nor show any affection to anyone just because they were the previous owner\'s family and friends.

While Lin Xiaofei was about to answer, a palace maid hastily dashed to the pavilion with a ghastly face.. Sweats were running down her face while the little make-up she used on her face was now wiped off of it.

The maid was having a hard time catching her breath when she finally stopped near an older maid who was standing near the pavilion which belongs to princess Gao. Initially, the older maid wanted to reprimand the other but stopped when the maid whispered something to her. The older maid\'s face turned grim after hearing what the maid\'s words.

At this sight, everyone\'s attention shifted from Lin Xiaofei to the two maids who looked like they swallowed needles in place of a snack.

"What is going on?!" Princess Gao was the first one to speak.

The older maid hesitated and didn\'t know how to say the right word when everyone was watching and listening.

With a glare, Princess Gao felt her mood turning sour even more and wanted to lash out to the two maids when suddenly, a piercing scream broke the silence.

As if an arrow left the bow, everyone\'s heart quivered like the string of a bow.

Everyone turned to face where the shout came from and felt their hearts turning heavy. However, even if there was fear inside their hearts, their curiosity won over it and like a flock of birds, the pavilion that was filled with people was suddenly vacated and only a few were left behind.

Clouds of dust flew around as they strode towards the direction where the shout came from and one can see that the place where it came from was the Winter Moon pagoda.

With Liu Shishi\'s arm on her, Lin Xiaofei was also pulled to see the commotion.

As she was pulled and before she got out of the pavilion, Lin Xiaofei didn\'t forget to cast a vicious glare to Qu Xing Xu who flashed her a sly smile.

"Come on! We need to get there faster," Liu Shishi said as she lifted her skirt with her hand while the other pulled on Lin Xiaofei.

Lin Xiaofei, who let herself pulled by Liu Shishi muttered, "There\'s no need to hurry, the thing in that place won\'t leave."

Or to be more precise, that \'person\' was unable to leave. She thought to herself.

As they reached the pagoda, one could see that a young man who ran faster than any of them stumbled backward and fell on his butt as he pointed his finger in front.

Everyone frowned when they heard him screaming

"Ah… a… a dead body!" Screamed the young man.

Maybe because they were inside the palace, the other who was following him thought he was playing a prank on everyone and was only acting thus, they didn\'t take him seriously.

"Gentleman Sun, stop with your act."

"That\'s right. It\'s already late and you still want to play?"

Two of the young man\'s friends laughed and didn\'t believe him. They still have a smile on their faces and continued to step forward without caring about the young man whom they called Gentleman Sun.

However, they soon couldn\'t step forward when their eyes fell on the thing that was on the ground where a maid was sitting unceremoniously on the ground with a pale face, the scream they heard earlier came from her.

When Liu Shishi and the others came to that side and saw this, they felt their stomach churning as they couldn\'t handle the sight of a dead body. They almost immediately turned to the side, not wanting to see the body anymore.

However, Lin Xiaofei was different and had both her eyes on the body of Song Lin. Her face didn\'t even change a color when she saw it nor did she try to pretend to be affected by it as there was no need to when everyone\'s focus was with Song Lin.

As such, her eyes scanned around the pagoda. She observed that two guards were standing on one side with a troubled expression on their faces. They probably ran fast to where the scream came from to check what happened and was caught off guard to see the maid and the lifeless body just like everyone else.

The maid was also shocked and her entire body was trembling. Both fear and shock, as well as the realization of her mistake, took over her body. Truthfully, she was shocked and frightened to see a dead body of a young lady in the pagoda but because of her scream, it seems that her life will cease to exist after attracting the attention of so many people and creating a scandal.

Lin Xiaofei couldn\'t blame the maid. If she were to see a dead body too when she was still as innocent as that maid and every young ladies in the Capital, she would probably faint instantly after seeing a dead body. However, knowing what the royal family was like, Lin Xiaofei knew that they wouldn\'t allow the maid to live when her scream was the reason why they couldn\'t hide the truth and created a dirty scandal in the Imperial Palace.

Lin Xiaofei\'s finally fell on the lying figure of Song Lin and paused. Her eyes were closed like she was deep in her sleep and looked normal if not for her skirt that was lifted until her fair pair of legs were out in the open for one to see that it was slightly parted while her hands were above her head. It was clear that she was violated.

Prince Jing\'s method of playing with his women was indeed above Lin Xiaofei\'s expectations. She\'s heard of Princes Jing\'s kinks from Yu Fangzhu and felt disgusted. Finding rape as his fetish wasn\'t enough, he found strangling a person exciting and satisfying that he would do both every time.

Not only that, Prince Jing really didn\'t fear the repercussions of his actions because he was confident that no one in the palace will find fault in him and things will be cleaned up before trouble rises its way towards the royal family. That\'s why even after knowing that Song Lin came from the family where a royal concubine was produced, he still didn\'t control his urges and killed her.

Such gutlessness. Indeed only a royal could have such privilege to act like this.

"I see... So, the letter did its job." A deep charming voice was heard from behind her. Lin Xiaofei didn\'t have to turn around to know that it was Qu Xing Xu. "Sending that young lady to the hands of Prince Jing. Are you not afraid that the royal family will get you for this?" He added.

Lin Xiaofei didn\'t reply as she already expected him to guess who was the man who violated Song Lin. As for the royal family… She didn\'t care if they didn\'t let her off this matter when they find out the truth.

Also, it will also depend if they actually have the ability to connect this incident to her.

With no response from her, Qu Xing Xu glanced at the body before leaning close to her ear, "So fearless and vicious… But I like it."

After saying that, Qu Xing lightly touched her shoulder before turning around to leave.

The entrance of the many masters and madams came next. The Song family\'s master and Song Lin\'s mother was included to the people who came to see what happened didn\'t know the tragedy that befalls them until they saw Song Lin\'s body.

"Lin\'er!!!" Song Lin\'s mother cried out and rushed to her daughter\'s side. Tears uncontrollably flowed out of her eyes when she saw her daughter\'s lifeless body, "My Lin\'er! How could do this happen to you?! No! Which vile man did this to you! Ah!!!"

The Song family members couldn\'t believe what was happening and didn\'t know how to react.

At this moment, the emperor and empress also went to where the commotion was.
