Beastly Fēi that Go Against the Heaven: Coerced by the Huáng Shū - Chapter 57

CHAPTER 57

Why Didn’t She Drown To Death!?

“Ah! Someone fell into the pond!” Shouts of surprise rose. Obviously, Yun momo was also frightened; they were doing fine with their walking lesson, how could someone suddenly fell into the pond?

“Quick! Who can swim? Quickly save people ah!” Yun momo shouted as she looked at everyone’s panic faces.

“I cannot…… I cannot……” Everyone, one by one, waved their hands and said they couldn’t swim. At that moment, a woman suddenly opened her mouth and said: “Miss ShangGuan, you can swim right? Last time I even saw you saved a child!”

“My monthly water come, body is inconvenient.” ShangGuan LingLan aggrievedly said.

“This……” Helplessness flashed in everyone’s eyes. The woman who spoke before was staring at ShangGuan LingLan in doubt; ‘Her water could come at any time, yet off all time, it actually came at this time.’

A group of women was making a big fuss ashore while that Jing Yan down there was fluttering for a while and had lost her strength in an instant. She had started to slowly sink into the bottom of the pond. When the imperial guards finally saved and brought her up, she had already lost her consciousness. Luckily, in the end she spitted all the water out.

Jing Yue, who had been watching from the side, sighed silently in her disappointment.

Why didn’t she drown to death!?

“In the end what’s going on!?” Yun momo coldly swept her eyes over everyone and asked. Everyone shivered, they retreated a step back without daring to speak.

“Yun momo, Jing Yan and Jing Yue fell together before. Only God knows who was it that pushed Miss Jing Yan into the pond.” The woman who spoke was exactly the woman who had said that ShangGuan LingLan could swim. She seemed to be called Dong SiEr, a miss from Dong family who had played together with Jing Yan before.

“Miss Dong, food you can eat indiscriminately, words you must not say irresponsibly.” Jing Yue sneered. She stared at Dong SiEr and said: “Someone knocked me over.”

Seeing Jing Yue’s appearance, Dong SiEr raised her chin and said: “What evidence do you have to prove that someone had knocked you over?”

“We don’t need to talk about evidence and proof things. We should talk about what Miss Jing Yan was doing walking behind me without any reason first. I remember when we lined up, you stood behind me while Jing Yan stood behind you; you say, isn’t that right?” Jing Yue pointed at a woman and spoke with a pair of raised eyebrows.

That woman seemed to be very scared to be mentioned by Jing Yue; biting her lips, she trembled and answered in a low voice:  “I…… I…… Didn’t pay any attention……”

“I saw it.” ShangGuan LingLan stepped out and said: “I was standing behind Jing Yan; I personally saw Jing Yan pulled Miss Liu’s sleeve and changed their position.”

Yun momo’s expression became grave. She raised her eyes to stare at Miss Liu, opened her mouth and said: “Liu MiaoQiu, did it happen like what ShangGuan LingLan has said?”

“Ye…… yes……” Liu MiaoQiu nervously tugged at the hem of her sleeves. She was so scared that she almost cried to feel everyone’s gazes fell on her body. She carelessly answered a yes and no longer said anything.

“You see! Miss Jing Yan exchanged her position with Miss Liu’s without any reason to do what? I was originally studying properly, only after Miss Jing Yan exchanged place with Miss Liu that I got knocked over and fell.” Jing Yue sneered when she looked at Jing Yan beside her. Jing Yan’s whole face was pale and she was covering her mouth.

“Miss Dong, didn’t you ask for evidence?” said Jing Yue who then raised her hand and said: “Yun momo, you could follow me into the room? I’ll take my clothes off so you can see my waist. It was hit and is still aching even now.”

“You……” Jing Yan’s whole body trembled, didn’t know whether it was because she was cold or because she was angry at Jing Yue.

“Miss Jing Yan, go home and tell your family’s Prime Minister that I cannot teach you. Let him find someone better than me.” Yun momo stood up and glanced indifferently at Jing Yan before saying: “In the future, you don’t need to come. Come! Send Miss Jing Yan back to Prime Minister’s Residence.”
