Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 431 - 15: The Cannon Fodder Senior Sister in the Cul
ng Tao didn’t notice them on the crowded bridge; she was excitedly holding a lantern, looking around.
Then, a burst of laughter ca from the crowd. Yu Fanxin looked up to see a young couple standing on the bridge. The man was holding a peach blossom lantern, trying to give it to the girl opposite him, which set off teasing from the surrounding onlookers.
In Yueyang, the people are open-minded; there are no strict rules regarding interaction between n and won, especially on a day like the Lantern Festival. The bridge beneath them is Lover’s Bridge, where such courtship events often take place.
Curious, ng Tao stood in the crowd, watching the spectacle. Yu Fanxin saw this and did not intervene, thinking there was no harm as long as ng Tao was just being playful and didn’t cause trouble.
At this mont, the girl being courted, either from shyness or nervousness, was clutching a handkerchief tightly, repeatedly retreating with an embarrassed expression, while the maid beside her appeared angry, standing in front of the girl with furrowed brows, saying sothing.
The scene was too noisy; no one could hear what they were saying. They could only tell that the girl had likely rejected the man’s courtship and wanted to leave.
The man looked utterly dejected, his face full of grief, eyes pleading; what might have been tears still marked his rather delicate face. The girl across from him continued to lower her head, intending to leave, but was blocked by the thickening crowd.
"A perfect match made in heaven; why not accept and create a beautiful story!"
"Accept him! Accept him!"
The girl bit her lip, head down, face red as a tomato. The maid stood with hands on her hips, pointing at the man’s nose and saying sothing, which from her expression, didn’t seem pleasant. The man’s mortification and despair moved the onlookers.
Jiang Lai watched silently from the side, yet her focus remained on ng Tao. As expected, ng Tao started making small movents. A flash of gold shot from her fingertips, and the maid blocking the girl was swept aside by a gust of wind.
Next, the girl, who had been avoiding the man, was pushed forward by the gust, stumbling uncontrollably into the man’s arms.
The crowd roared with excitent, never having seen such a bold move in their lives. Even the man was taken aback before his face filled with joy, ready to embrace the beauty falling towards him.
As everyone was ready to watch the show unfold, just as the girl was about to fall into the man’s arms, he suddenly stumbled backward, losing control and falling off the bridge amidst the gasps of the crowd. A loud splash followed, scattering the lanterns on the water’s surface, and he plunged off the bridge.
The stumbling girl managed to grab onto the bridge railing.
The maid, who had been knocked aside, quickly ran over to support her. Seeing her mistress on the verge of tears, the maid comfortingly covered her face with a sleeve.
"It’s alright, Miss, it’s alright, that rogue fell into the water. Let’s go ho."
The maid and her mistress took advantage of the crowd’s distraction and quickly left.
Seeing the situation spiraling out of her control, ng Tao turned and imdiately caught sight of Jiang Lai standing nearby.
"Why did you push him into the water? Haven’t you heard the saying: it’s better to dismantle ten temples than ruin one marriage?"
ng Tao was displeased. She was unhappy with Jiang Lai’s lack of empathy, deliberately sabotaging the couple at a mont that could have united them.
Jiang Lai slowly walked over, using her height to look down at ng Tao.
"How do you know they’re lovers? All I see is the man forcing the girl into submission."
"You know nothing of the human world; a girl being shy doesn’t an she’s unwilling. If she didn’t want to, why co to see the lanterns, to cross the Lover’s Bridge with him?"
ng Tao was infuriated.
She felt Jiang Lai was using spells to mock ordinary people unjustly.
Jiang Lai chuckled, speaking loudly.
"Junior sister, I understand you haven’t had a good ti in the human world and can’t discern social status by attire, given your lowly background, unable to recognize that the girl’s modestly adorned garnt is actually of high value, clearly marking her as a daughter of an official’s family.
However, you should see that the man’s coarse linen garnt, though the best he has, is not suitable for matching with a wealthy lady.
Are you trying to help them because you see yourself in that man?
Poor eting poor, is that it?
Long hair and short insight, even after entering our school, you still can’t shake off your aura of poverty, and yet you dare to use spells in public, exposing us peers. That alone is enough for to punish you!"
After speaking, Jiang Lai shot a cold glance at ng Tao, then turned to Yu Fanxin, her voice still icy.
"Keep an eye on her, or you won’t be able to explain, and I’ll get dragged down too!"
Being scolded so sharply by Jiang Lai, ng Tao’s face burned, her eyes stung with tears, and the unbearable sha filled her gaze with hatred for Jiang Lai. She couldn’t understand why Jiang Lai singled her out, using seniority to bully and suppress her, the newcor.
Her eyes reddened, for the first ti desperately wishing their master would appear, to defend her and scold Jiang Lai severely.
Finally, with no other options, she tearfully looked at Yu Fanxin, her eyes full of grievance and helplessness, her voice pitifully weak.
"Senior brother, I didn’t an it, I just... I just wanted to see lovers... reunite. I am indeed lowly, not as noble as senior sister, but I truly ant no harm. Brother, believe ."
Yu Fanxin frowned, listening to ng Tao’s cries, what was once a sweet tone now seed cloying and irritating.
"Whether I believe you or not doesn’t matter, what matters is you used Immortal Law and exposed our position. If the demon escapes, it’ll be hard to find him again. You made a grave mistake, and I will send soone to take you back for punishnt."
ng Tao shook her head incessantly.
She couldn’t go back, she knew they’d mock her, and her master would surely be disappointed.
Regardless, she refused to return.
"I won’t do it again; I’ll listen to you and never act on my own again. Senior sister, senior brother, I beg you, don’t make go back."
She grabbed onto Yu Fanxin’s sleeve, which only made Yu Fanxin more irritated, shaking her off with a cold tone.
"I’m not the master, don’t try that on . Also, just go back now, or I’ll send you personally, and then it’ll be embarrassing for you."
ng Tao’s mind buzzed, her heart full of confusion and grievance as she watched Yu Fanxin’s indifferent expression.
Why has Fanxin senior brother beco like this?
He used to be so tolerant and protective of .
