Villain Lady
“Future will only set in stone when it becomes the present.” Wei Liuying is a concubine daughter in Prime Minister’s Residence. A lowly existence with barely anyone who cares for her. She had to rely on her wits and manipulate others to stay alive. When the main daughter suddenly changed overnight, the others were dragged to keep up with her pace. Wei Liuying was no exception, and she had to adapt to the sudden power structure’s shift inside the residence. The main daughter laughed and looked at her with contempt, “Trying to scheme at me who knows everything like the back of my hand? You’re nothing more than a villain who’ll die a miserable death.” When the only one who cared for her was harmed by her father and so-called family, Wei Liuying laughed to Heaven as tears trailed on her cheek. “If you truly wish for me to be the villain, fine. I’ll be one.” In the midst of the raging flames of succession’s war and rebellions, Wei Liuying had to stand up for herself and fight for her survival. ...

Seeing that they were still able to laugh, the corner of Wei Liuying's lips curled up slightly. Even when they were facing danger and might lose their lives soon, they still could relax and laugh with their friends before the time of battle.
The sight felt warm.
"The sun will rise in a while," Gao Ling said as she pointed to the East's sky.
"But the fire hadn't died down yet."
"Is it possible for reinforcement to arrive?" Shi Lu Wen asked worriedly.
Wei Liuying looked to the north with narrowed eyes. She stood up slowly as the fire around them had died down, leaving nothing but ash from the destroyed buildings. The smoke was no longer as intense as before and only some areas still left the rising smoke intact.
"Before they can come, our enemies will arrive first."
"Eh?"
