During the first night that she cried herself to sleep, she dreamed that she was walking in circles somewhere. No matter how hard she tried to think, she could not recall where she was. So the next morning, she woke up with swollen eyes and dark circles. Xiao Xi had to run around finding herbal compress to make the swelling go down and restore her young miss’s beauty.

Bai Yu’s daily routine was repeated that same way for two days. Yoknapha died just after being heartbroken, then she woke up again in the body of the villainess she once played as in a series, and after that, she also had to go through all the ordeal at the banquet. Even worse, she was overwhelmed by the original body’s memories and emotions all that while as well. Who would be able to sleep soundly?

She had been calm at first, but that was due to her experience of adapting and acting from her former life. Now that she had the time to let everything sink in, her reaction would naturally be crying out of fear just like any normal person.

She was afraid of this unfamiliar world. She was afraid that this life would meet the same end as in the series, that she would die by the hands of her own lover. If she changed something, she still would not know what else to do to escape that ending.

Above all else...she was afraid that she herself would fall in love with the man who had caused her death in that last life.

Bai Yu kept mulling over the paths that she could take in this new life, not even leaving her bedroom. Her dark eyes gazed at the red plum blossoms fluttering down again and again.

.....

“Miss, these past two days you have barely touched your food.”

The maid looked at her mistress who had significantly changed. She became more thoughtful. Her usual interest in clothes, cosmetics, and dressing up was gone. Now she just kept to herself and stayed in her room. What made the maid most worried was how she barely ate.

“Do you want anything in particular for breakfast, miss? I will order the chef to immediately prepare it for you.”

“I want KFC.”

“...Yes?”

She was tired of the food here. It’s not that it wasn’t delicious, but she missed junk food she was familiar with things like fried chicken or nuggets. My body needs french-fries!

“Ka...Kay-Eb-Xia? What kind of food is it?”

Bai Yu sighed. “Forget it.”

“Yes, miss.” Xiao Xi answered dejectedly then retreated to stand with her head lowered and not saying anything else, thinking that she made her young miss angry. If Miss sighed like this, the next thing she would do was to pinch her or maybe throw something at her, as usual.

“How is mother’s health?”

“This...this morning first Furen had a bit of a headache,” Xiao Xi lifted her head to answer. She was surprised that this time, in a rare occurrence, Bai Yu did not take her anger out on her.

“Inform the main house that I’ll take my breakfast there.”

“Yes, miss.” Xiao Xi beamed before turning to order the maids waiting in front of the room.

In the series, today Yue Mei would fall ill due to her worry for Bai Yu who was grounded as a punishment for disgracing the Bai family, after being exposed by Bai Hua at the banquet. But according to what Xiao Xi said, it seemed that her mother was in better health than expected.

To confirm, Bai Yu would go to see it with her own eyes, and also use this opportunity to meet other people within the mansion. Normally if there was no other urgent business, the masters in Bai mansion would have breakfast together. Bai Yu always ate every meal with her mother at the main house, but these past two days had been rough for her, and she didn’t feel like doing anything, so she made up an excuse that she wanted to rest. Now, she had to go back to join the battle.

For those in the Bai mansion, the breakfast table was a battlefield for the women. The heroine was lucky that she and her mother’s status were too low, but for Bai Yu who was the daughter of the first wife, she had been in this battle for over ten years.

Apart from Bai Yu’s and Bai Hua’s mothers, her father had two other Furens. Those Furens also had their own children as well. However, concubines and ‘favored’ maids did not have any rights to join the table at the main house.

No matter how much Bai Han loved Yue Mei, both tradition and politics forced him to marry other women. The longer time passed, the more people’s hearts became unpredictable. There was no way to know whether he still had the old love left in him.

“Whose meal is that?” Bai Yu asked Xiao Xi, looking at an unfamiliar maid who bowed to her. In the maid’s hands was a tray carrying one bowl of rice and one dish of food that had turned cold.

“It’s the third miss’s meal, miss.”

“She always eats things like this?”

“Yes. Isn’t that Miss’s order?” Xiao Xi tilted her head, confused by the question from her mistress.

“Right,” Bai Yu smoothly replied. She walked away without sparing a second glance at the heroine’s pitiful meal. At least she was not starving to death.

“Respects from Yu-er to father, mother, second Furen, and third Furen.”

After arriving at the main house, Bai Yu curtsied to her parents, greeting them sweetly before flatly calling the title of the second wife and nodding to her fifth sister’s greeting.

According to the tradition, she should have called the two Furens ‘second mother’ and ‘third mother’, but this Bai Yu was too prideful. The only woman she would call mother was Yue Mei. Moreover, she also did not show much respect to other Furens, while, on the contrary, those wives and concubines had to be careful of their manners toward her.

“Are you feeling well now, child?”

“Yes, father. I am feeling much better.” Bai Yu gently answered her father. The original body largely felt affection for her father. Even though he had many wives, he still specially pampered her and her eldest brother who were both born from Yue Mei. Bai Yu’s older brother was the firstborn son of the family, while Bai Yu, though a second-born child, was called the first daughter.

“How strange. Big sister has such strong magic. Why would she be so careless and let the Qin strings cut her?” A small, high-pitched voice sounded to interrupt her conversation with her father, calling the attention of everyone at the table.

“Yue-er, why are you saying that,” the second Furen half-heartedly reprimanded her daughter, ‘Bai Yue’. She even challenged Bai Yu by directly meeting her eyes.

“But, mother, Yue-er is stupid, so no matter how hard I think I still couldn’t understand...” Her fourth sister kept up the ‘innocent’ act while continuing in a mocking tone. “...Sister has high-level red magic. How could she be so foolish, even to the point of being poisoned and hurt?”

“Maybe the one who poisoned her has stronger magic than her?” Back and forth, these mother and daughter pair’s cooperation skill was impressive.

“But the culprit was third sister, and she has no magic at all. She can’t possibly be stronger than big sister...” Her doe-like eyes stared straight at Bai Yu as she spoke, “...That useless woman must’ve used some kind of secret trick against first sister”

Bai Yu was being ridiculed that she was so stupid that even a person with no magic could harm her. But couldn’t they just say it straight? Why waste your energy on yapping away like this?
