Only after being reborn did Wen Ruotang learn that she was the vicious supporting character in a story.
Her only purpose was to constantly bring trouble upon herself by framing the original heroine, Su Wanning, then get slapped down repeatedly by the three male leads before her entire family was executed and she met a miserable end.
And Su Wanning? Her cousin married her, the young heir protected her, and the Prince Regent emptied his harem for her.
Wen Ruotang closed the book.
Fine, a villainess, was she? Then she'd be a villainess to the very end.
When Su Wanning fell into the water, Wen Ruotang crouched on the bank, watching and waving cheerfully.
“Dear cousin, let me pull you out.”
At the sight of that smile, Su Wanning felt a chill run down her back.
Later.
After drinking himself drunk, her cousin asked her with bloodshot eyes, “Ruotang, weren't you the one who loved me most?”
She toyed with her wine cup, nonchalant. “That was then. This is now.”
Young Lord Sheng cornered her beneath the palace walls, his voice fierce and aggrieved. “You saved me, so you're mine. Don't you dare look at anyone else!”
She raised a hand to wipe the wine from the corner of his mouth, smiling tenderly. “Be good. Don't meddle in my affairs.”
The Prince Regent trapped her between the throne and his chest, barely restraining the madness churning in his eyes. “Wen Ruotang, what is it you want?”
She tipped her head back, touching his Adam's apple with a fingertip, and said each word distinctly, “What I want, you can't give me.”
Men really are hopelessly shameless.
