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. ...

My Answer
Yang Xian finally sighed. He stretched his body. "You know me very well, Your Highness."
"I didn't raise you for nothing."
"You speak as if I'm your child." Yang Xian chuckled. Though, it was partially true since he was raised by Prince Ji Sheng ever since he was a brat. It was thanks to Prince Ji Sheng that he could become who he is right now.
"I have to make sure that I can keep you all around. It's impossible for me to be the leader without having capable subordinates around me." Prince Ji Sheng looked into a distance. "There's a limit to what I can do by myself."
Yang Xian didn't immediately reply. He still could remember that when they first met, he was nothing more than a little schemer who lived by duping others and scraped by on the border. It was Prince Ji Sheng who offered his hands to help him out during that situation. Even now, Yang Xian could never forget that moment.
