The Anarchic Consort [ Chapter 1 - 199 ]

Chapter 75: Losing One's Standing

Murong Chang Feng didn’t anticipate that things would develop this way. A trace of astonishment clearly streaked across his face.

He never thought that the always single-mindedly apathetic Third Prince surprisingly would get involved in this matter. Furthermore, once he took control, he was so overwhelming.

Such that Murong Chang Feng, who wanted to refute him, entirely couldn’t find a pretext for it.

“Entrapping a loyal and righteous person from the younger generation.” With such a big net having been released, no matter how many people were involved, they would’ve all committed a capital offense!

Only Helian Mei wasn’t able to properly perceive the mood.

Rather than say she couldn’t perceive the mood.

Let’s say instead that she just simply didn’t believe that such a high and aloof third prince would extend his hand to help a good-for-nothing!

“Your Highness, did you say it incorrectly? How could the person who was sentenced with the death penalty be Jing Wu Wang!”

Helian Mei furiously pointed at Wei Wei. “Clearly, this girl was harboring unfathomable motives. She’d already saved the cat clan’s prince and didn’t say anything until the last minute in order to entrap the teacher!”

Once Helian Jiao Er heard these words, she knew ‘damn it!’ as she stepped forward and hurriedly berated. “Younger Sister, shut up!”

“Why should I shut up, Older Sister, look at this girl. Is she the same as she was before? Not at all! She’s a downright crafty little snake. We only strayed a little yet she bit firmly without letting go. I also wonder where she’s recently learned some methods to charm and deceive. Even His Highness who you like the most is……”

Slap!

Helian Jiao Er saw the surrounding people gradually show looks of comprehension and that man’s eyes becoming as ice cold as a deep pool. Unable to stand it anymore, using the palm of her hand, she fiercely slapped Helian Mei on the face!

This slap didn’t merely stun Helian Mei at that moment, even Wei Wei didn’t expect it as she raised her eyebrows, following which she stroked the white cat. The corners of her mouth hooked into a devilish smiling expression.

Helian Jiao Er’s chest moved up and down and seemed as if she was suppressing her anger.

She knew clearly what kind of man he was. The number of women he’d already rejected were innumerable. What a high and aloof person like him hated most was to have people set him up.

That’s why for the past many years she’d always been silent before him. Even if she heard news having to do with him, she also only smiled demurely. So much so that when she learned about Third Prince choosing a consort, she didn’t disclose her feelings to anyone at all.

She pretended that she didn’t care much for him. Even when other girls from prestigious families asked her, she also suppressed her complacency and delight as much as possible.

But how about now? In but a moment, Helian Mei exposed all of the secrets within the depths of her heart in front of everyone!

She could almost imagine how those girls who normally had good relations with her and dragged her to talk about Third Prince must look at her now!

It’s enough that her Third Sister was stupid on her own, but she had to also drag her down as well. How could this not make Helian Jiao Er angry!

“You hit me? Second Sister, you went so far as to hit me!” Helian Mei’s shrieks were indescribably ear-piercing. As hot-tempered as she was, she glared and was going to pounce and grab Helian Jiao Er’s hair. She couldn’t accept being slapped on the face in front of so many people!

Helian Jiao Er perceived that she didn’t know how to exercise restraint and became truly angry. She grabbed Helian Mei’s wrist and said in a hushed voice. “You stop now. Helian Mei, do you intend for everybody to make a joke of us sisters? !”

“If they’re making a joke then let them!” Helian Mei had been incited into a belly full of fiery anger. Helian Jiao Er didn’t want people to know, but she instead was determined, either the fish dies or the net splits (she’d stake even her life). “In any case, from childhood until now, I’ve been nothing but a joke to you!”

Helian Jiao Er paused. “How could you think that?”

“Don’t tell me otherwise. Isn’t it so?” Helian Mei shouted loudly. Compared to her usual self, this was apparently even more reckless, completely unrestrained. She basically took her ugly side and totally exposed it to the world. “No matter what the misdeed, you prompted me to go do it. I was only your tool. Wherever you say to strike, I must strike there! And the result was that you gained a good name for yourself, but I haven’t gained anything. Even Father loves you more! They should see properly that you’re actually nothing!”

“Helian Mei!” Helian Jiao Er trembled all over and reprimanded with hushed tones. “What in the world is the matter with you today?”

Helian Mei coldly smiled. Her pair of eyes were red. “Me? I’ve only been awakened by the slap from your palm, you malicious whore!”

Everyone was stunned by this scene.
One ought to know that this pair of beautiful sisters ordinarily was well liked by everyone who’d seen them. The older one was sweet-tempered and beautiful. The younger one had a lively temperament. Even when they spoke they attracted people’s affection.

But look at today, what was this? She was just like a street shrew, my God!

While everyone’s mouths were opened wide in shock, only Baili Jia Jue glanced at Wei Wei beside him, his gaze was emotionless, cold and deeply hidden like an ancient well……
