The Anarchic Consort [ Chapter 1 - 199 ]

Chapter 196: Slap Madam Su's Face

Two voices echoed simultaneously.

One was Helian Wei Wei’s, languid and indolent, a smile on her lips.

The other one was Baili Jia Jue’s, he stood straight with head tilted, a silver face like a perfect ice sculpture, leisurely rolling up the cuffs of his sleeves as the corners of his mouth curved in an enchantingly cold manner, his voice sexily deep and low, yet emotionless.

Wei Wei actually didn’t expect that Third Prince wanted to say the same thing she did and glanced sideways to take a look at the man.

Third Prince actually appeared indifferent and only faced her with a raised eyebrow.

Head Abbot Fang Zhang, however, stared eyes wide. What did he say, this girl and this stinky fellow were truly a bit alike!

Look, the arrangement that they suggested was astonishingly exactly the same!

Retired Emperor also stared blankly, after which he laughed. “Then just as what this lass, Wei Wei has said, let’s have Madam Su suffer instead of her daughter.”

“Retired Emperor.” Wei Wei unsurprisingly glanced back to salute him with with honor.

Su Yan Mo held tightly onto Helian Jiao Er’s fingers, the light in her eyes brimming with hatred. To have her, a grand official’s wife, retained at the temple to chant the sutra and abstain from meat, if this wasn’t extraordinary shame and humiliation, what was!

She forced herself to remain calm as she turned to face Retired Emperor and was going to speak.

When Wei Wei interrupted her. “Madam Su shouldn’t have a competition to participate in, right?”

Su Yan Mo slowly breathed, the corners of her mouth rigid. “No.”

This vile spawn was purposefully using the words she’d just spoken to stop her up. She’s already so old, how could she still have any competition to participate in!

Wei Wei seemed as if she didn’t see Madam Su’s fury as she said levelly. “Since it’s like that, a mother paying her child’s debt is more than fitting.”

Helian Jiao Er was filled with so much resentment, all of her teeth hurt. She truly wanted to gather all of the martial qi within her body and immediately dash over to slaughter Wei Wei!

However, on the surface, she only gripped Madam Su’s hand, and shook her head back and forth. “How can I have Mother take the punishment in my place. The one who was wrong was clearly me.”

Her pair of eyes were reddened, her eyelashes drooped down as a layer of tears moistened them. In spite of everything, it kind of made people feel like they didn’t have the heart to watch.

Wei Wei knew that Helian Jiao Er was acting again.

However, things having reached this stage, no matter how she’s acting, she still couldn’t cover up the true cause of her existing misfortune. Everybody weren’t fools. Having witnessed this incident, everybody more or less knew that Helian Jiao Er certainly wasn’t as naive or magnanimous as she appeared on the surface.

Of course, some people were still misled by her appearance, especially those who easily felt sorry for beautiful damsels, such as the young lords.

Wei Wei straightened her collar, and inclined her head as she laughed. “Then what Younger Sister mean is that you want to be the one to stay at the temple? Such filial piety is truly moving.”

“I……” Helian Jiao Er’s complexion changed as she choked on Wei Wei’s words, her lips scarlet from getting bitten, she gnashed her teeth with hate and resentment.
