Quick Transmigrating Second Female Lead’s Counterattack Chapter 170

Chapter 170

The old man’s eyes reddened immediately. He had lost his son and daughter-in-law when he was 70. His only family left was his granddaughter. He had been so close to losing her too.

XunMi lightly patted his back and spoke softly. “Grandfather, it was my fault for being so rushed this time. I’m sorry for making you worried. I promise, this will never happen again.”

XunMi sat Nian Zheng down. He held onto her hand joyously. He thought that even if his granddaughter didn’t wake up consumed by the need for revenge, she would still be furious. But seeing his granddaughter speak calmly, as if none of the past events even happened, Nian Zheng relaxed.

But then he remembered the banquet being held tonight. He heard those two were about to announce their engagement.

“Xiao Xun. You…you…right now….” He took a cautious glance at his granddaughter’s reaction. Seeing no change, he kept speaking. It was better to rip the bandage off all at once to allow the wound to heal. “Are you still not over that person? He is getting engaged to that one from Yu family tonight. You…”

Before he could finish, XunMi interrupted him. “Grandfather, do you think your granddaughter is really that blind? I was only interested in him before because he treated me well. After all, I had been alone my whole life. I didn’t have any friends or acquaintances around me. So I was curious about his outgoing enthusiasm. It was only because of that that I allowed him to do whatever he wanted. But a low quality item will always be a low quality item. No matter how much you polish it, it will never become a true luxury item.” XunMi coldly laughed. Who did Yi Ling think he was? He couldn’t even compare to a single hair on her husband’s head.

Nian Zheng watched his granddaughter. When he saw that she was speaking the truth, he broke out into a laugh. “Good. My granddaughter should have this kind of attitude. How could that thing be worthy of my beautiful granddaughter!” If his granddaughter hadn’t been in that accident, he wouldn’t have known what happened on CJ-31. He wouldn’t have known Yi Ling was such a blind and stupid man that would never be able to amount to much.

“Grandfather, I want to go to the banquet tonight.” XunMi held Nian Zheng’s hand and blinked her large round eyes in anticipation.

Nian Zheng’s gaze sharpened immediately. “Xiao Xun?”

XunMi eyes wrinkled at the edges and looked up innocently. Yet her words could shiver down someone’s back. “I ought to make up for lost time. How could I let them get away? I’ll make sure he throws up everything he every swallowed up from me. I’ll show him that Nian XunMi isn’t someone that anyone can just mess with.” The original soul regretted sending herself onto the road of self-destruction and dragging her grandfather down with her. But it was all due to these two. Of course, she also had to hold part of the blame. If Nian XunMi had let go of the past, and started a new life, none of the terrible events would have followed.

Nian Zheng nodded his head in satisfaction. It looked like his granddaughter has really made up her mind. “Alright, the invitation card is in my study room. You can go get it. I’ll get there a little later. I’m going to go take care of a few things first.” He hadn’t planned to come back at all for this. But he had a feeling that something was going to happen. Out of worry, he came back to take a look at his granddaughter. He hadn’t expected such a great surprise was waiting for him.

XunMi nodded her head obediently, practically making Nian Zheng’s heart melt on site. The two talked for a while more before dispersing to conduct their separate matters.  Since she needed to appear at tonight’s banquet, then she could only go using her identity as Nian Zheng’s granddaughter. After tonight, her previous experiences wouldn’t be able to stay hidden. She needed to attack first so that those people wouldn’t have time to turn the spear towards her. Yu family was a good choice. Their commanding marshal had died, only leaving behind a young marshal with little ability. It was best for him to give way for a more capable person to take on his position anyway. An invisible smoke began to invade the air, waiting for the right moment to drown those around it {T/N: I think she means this as a metaphor to how she’s laying a trap and waiting for the right moment to reel in?}.

. . .

Glamorous clothing, blinding lights, trickling wine. Luxurious chandeliers and a court-styled ballroom made this banquet even more eye catching. Si Yufan wore a double-breasted royal blue suit, revealing his lean figure. His eyes were ice and his lips tightly pursed together. They often say that those with his characteristics were known to be amorous. His eyes were deeper than the ocean. There was no end. Instead, they were layers and layers swirling waves- one look and you wouldn’t be able to escape.

He leaned leisurely on a railing without care, yet was able to capture the attention of the entire room. His aura was dangerously sharp, but carried it poisonous allure, tempting others to come closer.

Si YuFan ignored the eyes on him. He wasn’t in a good mood. They couldn’t even find a person. It seemed like his army force needed more training.

Meanwhile, the Silver Wolf Legion suddenly felt a cold shiver down their spine.

Suddenly, a gasp sounded near the entrance, as if something had captured their attention.  Everyone turned in that direction, wanting to see the cause of their startled gasps.

Si YuFan also turned his attention to the object of the crowd’s wonder. He had first assumed there would be a dramatic scene awaiting him. He never would have thought that his one glance would change his entire life.

A woman stepped out in a slim red evening gown, making her pale white skin appear even more snow white. In the moonlight, she looked like an ice princess. Her peach blossom eyes carried a light smile that captured hearts immediately. Glistening red wine lips and a delicate face made her like the splitting image of a demon seductress, constantly seducing and charming onlookers. Her perfectly fitted outfit illuminated her thin waist and full hips. She maintained the small smile as she walked towards the crowd. Every step she took was like another step into the hearts of onlookers. They looked up at her as if citizens watching their queen descent. She was more dazzling than the sun, more magical than the most beautiful rose. XunMi slightly waved and began speaking to the crowd. “Hello everyone. I am Nian XunMi. This is my first time participating in this banquet.” Her soft and clear voice resounded through the room.

“Nian XunMi. What a great name!”

“Wait, who’s young miss is this? Why haven’t we seen her before?”

“So beautiful. She’s definitely from an aristocratic family or some big merchant family.”

“Yes, she has such a nice air.”

Those were comments from those touched by XunMi’s appearance.

“Humph, didn’t you hear her say that this is her first time here? She’s definitely from one of those small families that finally crawled their way in.”

“That’s right, that’s right. What’s so great about her?”

These comments were obviously jealous of XunMi. After all, her appearance stole away the attention from all the other aristocratic young misses.
