Villainess Series 1: Bullying the Male lead

22: Rabbit

'Something bad?'

His muscular arms swiftly slipped around my waist. I tilted my head back against his wide chest; trying to put a safe distance between us.

'My tofu.. my poor tofu. Back off buddy! Please stop eating my tofu!'

"You look as innocent as flowers— that I just want to crush you in my hand. So.. do you still think that I'll care if you'd hate me?" Li Han leaned down; kissing the soft part of my neck that pulsed with fear.

"Bai Suxin, I want to push you against that tree, bend you over and senselessly fvck you from behind."

I shrieked inside.

"Bai Suxin, hate me. If you say that you hate me, again— I'm not going to restrain myself anymore."

'That.. that.. he's not serious, right?'

After Li Han released me and coldly walked away, leaving me alone in the garden; I let out a harsh breath then slipped down to the ground like a jelly. His words left me feeling cold and weak.

'Amituofo.'

I'm not a buddhist but amituofo.

Thank you for letting him see the light. Baidu (*equivalent to Google in China) said that the Amitabha-Recitation can help overcome lust. Merciful Buddha, please welcome the male lead to Pure Land.

'Amituofo.'

'Mom, I want to go home. Wahhh!!'

"Jin'er, where's the vase?!"

"My lady, what's wrong? Why are you–"

When Jin'er showed up and hurriedly assisted me to stand, I just clung to her tightly. She tried to calm me down by patting my back.

"I'm scared."

"Don't be scared. Don't be scared."

"Wahhh!!"

I.. can't believe it. I'm alive. Can't help but cry inside. I'm so screwed. I'm doomed. I'm dead! Flatline! The plot.. what's wrong with the male lead? He's ruining the plot!

That night, I had a nightmare.

I became a rabbit, a white chubby rabbit. Something in the woods came out and it was a hungry dog; his mouth was drooling like a faucet.

Wagging his tail as it stared at me. I cried loudly when it started licking me.

"Don't eat me!"

My white fur was full of its saliva; so gross. Then suddenly it grabbed me by my long ears and lifted me up. Slowly, he opened its mouth then bit my poor hand.

"Ahhh!!!" I woke up; found myself sweating bullets.

"Good morning, my lady. Ah? What's wrong my lady?"

I glanced at the vase near me. When Jin'er noticed, she instinctively blocked the vase from my eyesight.

"I don't want to go."

"My lady, you have to."

Today, the Right Prime Minister Xu Zhang arranged a banquet, not only to welcome Chu Wanwan as her goddaughter but it also serve as her debut day to the noble society.

"Greetings to Lady Bai."

"Greetings to Miss Chu."

"I think you've misspoken Lady Bai. From now on, people requires to call me Lady Chu."

"Oh, forgive me. It just that it became a habit."

Raising a brow with a fan on my hand, "You see, it's not everyday that an opportunist succeeds at entering the noble clan."

The other noble ladies behind me, snickered.

The female lead who also came in quite ready, "Lady Bai, I advise you to watch what you say. Can you afford to offend the Right Prime Minister House?"

"Oh, that is a funny thing to say."

Chu Wanwan is not only a warrior princess, expert in martial arts; she's a herbalist who practices healing by collecting herbs; a talented dancer; and also a professional chef. Indeed, worthy of being the female lead.

Jin'er slowly whispered to my ear. "Everything is in place, my lady."

I smirked. "Anyway, I heard Lady Chu cooked special dishes today for the nobles to try. I must remind you as a noble, I am a bit sensitive to food and I am severely allergic to shrimps. Unless.. if you really want to kill me."

"Lady Bai must be joking."

The others who heard my remarks laughed as they looked at each other; as if they just heard the funniest joke in town.

The entire banquet was lively. Dancers and musicians were there to entertained the nobles. Xu Zhang and Bai Muro were even having friendly conversations like they weren't rivals but blood brothers.

"Greetings to His Royal Highnesses."

Li Han and the other royals have also attended the banquet which proves the incomparable influence of the Right Prime Minister House to the throne.

Oh! Here comes the next storyline: the allergy scheme of the green-tea villainess.

"Please enjoy. This dishes are specifically prepared and cooked by me. I hope everyone can share their thoughts about the taste of the dishes I made."

I turned my eyes away from the peking duck on my plate. Hah. So tempting! It looked so delicious. Whole ducks were roasted in wood-fired ovens, rendering out fat and leaving behind perfectly thin, crisp skin. The color and aroma of the meat were so mouth-watering and they even served it with pancakes and lotus buns.

'Female lead.. you show no mercy to this villainess.'

No, I can't surrender. How can I go out-of-character because of a duck? Literally a duck! Ahh.. humiliation. I mentally slapped myself.

I shouldn't pity myself. Chu Wanwan doesn't know how to
cook cup noodles. Right?! Hah! I'm not losing here.
