A concubine? You're more like a joke. I'd rather send you to your death.

What a despicable man! He looks respectable, but he does utterly inhuman things.

"Bai Luoluo, the Third Prince ordered you to apologize, didn't you hear him?"

Liu Yulan reverted to her previous arrogant demeanor; since Bai Luoluo was not dead, she had nothing to fear.

Gu Yanjin straightened his clothes, raised his head, and waited for Bai Luoluo to grovel at his feet and apologize.

This older sister must be the female lead, Liu Yulan. They are truly a match made in heaven. We must keep these two together to prevent them from harming others.

She studied abroad for a doctorate, but ended up as cannon fodder in the book, completely trampled on by the male and female protagonists to rise to power.

In the past, when watching time-travel dramas, it seemed like these kinds of books all had predetermined endings.

"My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens," she must shed the persona of a cannon fodder simp.

If all else fails, kill that scumbag couple and take the position yourself, becoming the big shot in the book.

"It is I who am injured, Liu Yulan, are you blind? No matter what, I am the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion. I will go to the palace to report this to the Emperor. You have humiliated me this time, and you must give the General's Mansion an explanation."

Since we're already here, let's deal with the immediate problem first before considering anything else.

The original owner's father, Bai Hao, was a general who protected the country and held military power, which was her best source of confidence.

Even the emperor would be somewhat wary of it.

She wanted to see if the Emperor would punish her for the sake of the Third Prince.

Bai Hao spent his life on the battlefield, making great contributions to the Xiling Kingdom, but in the end, he was executed along with his entire clan by Gu Yanjin for treason.

If the original owner hadn't been so naive and brainless, the General's Mansion wouldn't have fallen into defeat later on.

The general loved his daughter dearly. In order to ensure Bai Luoluo's well-being and to avoid Gu Yanjin's suspicions, he voluntarily relinquished his military power and wanted to retire to his hometown. However, he was unexpectedly ordered to exterminate his entire family.

Bai Luoluo's words struck Gu Yanjin squarely.

Gu Yanjin's expression softened for a moment, and his anger lessened considerably.

Bai Hao, that old scoundrel, is fiercely protective of his daughter. If this were to escalate to the Emperor's hands, he and Liu Yulan might be the ones punished in order to appease Bai Hao.

If that happens, you'll offend the General's Mansion, or even lose Bai Luoluo's affections.

After much deliberation, Gu Yanjin gave up on the idea of ​​apologizing.

“Bai Luoluo, it was Miss Liu’s fault that you were injured today, but it was really wrong of you to hurt someone. Look, you knocked out Miss Bai’s teeth. If this gets out, people will say that you are harsh on your half-sister, which will damage your reputation.”

Bai Luoluo rolled her eyes at the nonsense.

Coward.

Now that she's scared, she still dares to subtly criticize her half-sister.

Today's events were probably all caused by this scheming, innocent girl.

The book states that Bai Qianqian is meticulous and a more difficult character to deal with than Liu Yulan, but there is not much description of her, so she didn't read it carefully.

Bai Qianqian played a significant role in catching the adulterer and ruining the original owner's reputation.

"The Third Prince knows the whole story perfectly well. Don't pin the blame of being harsh on my half-sister on me. If Bai Qianqian hadn't scratched my neck until it bled, would I have hit her?"

As she spoke, Bai Luoluo glanced at Bai Qianqian in the corner.

Bai Qianqian's face was red and swollen, and she looked at her with resentment in her eyes, like a venomous snake, just short of rushing over to strangle her.

Original owner, you really died a miserable death, having an affair with such a scumbag.

Today, I'm truly thankful that the original owner didn't lose her virginity to that hypocritical scumbag, otherwise she would have been in real trouble.

However, all of this is thanks to that venomous half-sister.

On one hand, they act like sisters with a deep bond, and on the other hand, they stab each other in the back.

Look at those hateful eyes; they almost popped their eyeballs out.

"Elder sister, I was just too worried about you and didn't pay attention to the force I used. I hope you won't blame me."

Bai Qianqian composed herself, her eyes filled with tears, looking pitiful, which made Bai Luoluo want to protect her.

She's truly a natural at palace intrigue; if she were to act in a modern drama, she might win a major award.

Seeing Bai Luoluo's pitiful appearance, the young noblemen present looked at her with displeasure and disdain.

"I never expected the General's beloved daughter to be so ruthless, even towards her half-sister."

"Exactly, look, all her teeth have been knocked out."

"Miss Qianqian is too kind. Look how badly Bai Luoluo bullied her."

"It's one thing for Bai Luoluo to be stupid and clumsy, but she's also so vicious. She truly doesn't deserve the title of the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion."

"Useless, ignorant of etiquette, and unaware of how the General's Mansion teaches its people."

............

Each word of disdain, contempt, and contempt brought a smile to Bai Qianqian's eyes.

Her elder sister was simple-minded, only interested in love and romance, and had no idea how terrifying people could be. A hint of disdain flashed in Bai Qianqian's eyes.

Bai Luoluo smiled faintly.

The original owner was raised by her aunt, who let her do whatever she wanted every day, eating, drinking, and playing all she wanted. She never learned anything about music, chess, calligraphy, painting, or etiquette.

He couldn't even read many characters; he was completely spoiled.

This aunt was the original owner's own aunt. The general thought that since the original owner lost her mother at birth and he was often away fighting, he would not mistreat her because she was his aunt. He had already made it clear that he would divorce her when she was older and find her a good husband, or even give her a generous dowry as compensation.

To everyone's surprise, she readily agreed, saying that the original owner was her sister's only bloodline and that she would take good care of her without asking for anything in return.

Upon hearing this, the general was deeply moved, and the two married as they wished. He gave this concubine the status of a secondary wife, and the two treated each other with respect, but did not consummate their marriage.

Until one day, the general got drunk and missed his wife, and somehow ended up sleeping with this concubine.

After that, Aunt Zhang became pregnant and gave birth to Bai Qianqian. The general knew he had wronged his wife, but it was too late to change anything.

The general doted on the original owner of the body and fulfilled his fatherly duties towards Bai Qianqian, but he never shared a room with this concubine again after that.

He couldn't help feeling a little guilty, so he entrusted her with managing all the affairs of the household.

The original owner was coaxed and listened to this concubine's every word.

The tragic original owner still believed that this concubine was genuinely kind to her.

Actually, they were paving the way for their daughter. Who would respect a spoiled, pampered daughter of a general's family?

In contrast, Bai Qianqian is well-educated and skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and can be considered a famous talented woman.

"Seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving. Don't make unfounded accusations. Do you think you've read all the classics but never understood them?"

They're all acting like shrewish women from the marketplace, standing up for Bai Qianqian. Have any of you even seen my wounds?

The young master, who had just been standing up for Bai Qianqian, suddenly blushed.

The Second Prince, Gu Yanche, had handsome features and an outstanding temperament. Beneath his gentle and refined appearance lay a pair of deep eyes. He glanced at Bai Luoluo with amusement.

The usually dull and clumsy Miss Bai seems to be different; she really did become smarter after taking a hit.

He used to be so timid and submissive, but now he's so quick-witted and sharp-tongued—it's a world of difference.
