The Birth Of A Villainess

Seeing their faces creased in confusion, she gave them her sweetest smile but didn\'t say anything more to clarify it nor did she offer some explanation to her words and casually said, "It\'s getting late already. Dear guests, my grandfather and I are tired and won\'t show you the way out."

The words she meant were to send them away and treat them as intruders and not as a respectable guest.

One would usually be amiable and would at least send the guests away while showing the way to them or striking into a friendly conversation. However, Lin Xiaofei\'s attitude towards them, and her words were meant to tell the Chu family that they were unwelcomed and have overstayed their welcome.

This made Madam Chu\'s face also look ugly.

She was first stunned at the beautiful appearance of the young lady in front of them and wasn\'t listening. She was too occupied trying to see the past Lin Xiaofei who was rude and ungraceful from the real Lin Xiaofei who was standing straight in front of her.

She was also shocked at how unnerved and unbothered Lin Xiaofei was when her engagement was just broken and didn\'t look like she was in a hurry to look for a new suitable man to marry.

For three years, Lin Xiaofei wasn\'t seen in public and thus, many forgot how she looked like, and even if they could still remember, people wouldn\'t associate her to the young lady in front.

She was too different from the Lin Xiaofei everyone knew and ridiculed. The young woman in front of them didn\'t shy away even after being in their presence.

Of course, Lin Xiaofei was aware of it because she was truly not the real Lin Xiaofei and someone completely different. She was never the type to bend to anyone just because they looked at her and tried to scare her.

She was like that when she was with Yu Fangzhu but after rebirth, she\'s now her own person and wouldn\'t go back to the dumpsite she dived to in the past.

Lin Xiaofei turned around and Lin Xiaomeng was conflicted about whether to show some courtesy to the Chu family. But upon thinking about their hasty and unfair decision to suddenly break off the engagement without even conferring with their Lin family on this matter.

And the fact that they gave him a list of third rate noble sons, Lin Xiaomeng decided to follow Lin Xiaofei\'s decision.

"This…"

Madame Chu was speechless!

With Lin Xiaofei and Lin Xiaomeng\'s back facing them, Madam Chu became restless and said, "General Lin, wait!"

Lin Xiaomeng stopped and slightly turned his head, "Is there anything else, Madam Chu?"

"This… This is the first time that we entered the Lin family and thus, didn\'t know our way in and out." She paused, "And since the General and the young lady is tired, can General Lin send a servant to guide us?"

Lin Xiaofei was pleasantly surprised to know that Madam Chu was aware that this was their first visit to the Lin residence but how could she be someone good-natured?

Not letting Lin Xiaomeng respond to Madam Chu, Lin Xiaofei quickly said, "The Chu family has always been outstanding and Young Master Chu has ranked top in the examinations. I think that he would be able to memorize the way out since he has such a noble aura in him."

"If you can\'t find the exit. Then, you can always trace back the steps you took when coming inside." Lin Xiaofei continued and flicked her sleeves, not willing to give any attention to them anymore.

She wanted to remind them that they were nothing compared to the Lin family. They might be from a high ranking noble family but they also need to be reminded that they once came from a small family when they still hadn\'t latched their eyes on the Lin family.

They weren\'t that as high ranking as now in the past. But the Lin Family extended their hands to establish an engagement agreement and because of that they were able to ride that golden Ox and got closer to the other reputable and high ranking family.

Since they dared to come and be brazen to get what they want, why can\'t Lin Xiaofei and Lin Xiaomeng give them the freedom to be willful? They can be rude but the Lin family can\'t?

Lin Xiaofei didn\'t think so.

Even she, Lin Xiaofei, got dizzy walking around the twists and turns of the corridors of the Lin family. Lin Xiaofei wanted to let them experience that and let them know the danger they\'re walking to and how grandiose the Lin Family residence was.

They wanted to help her pick her husband? Lin Xiaofei also wanted to give back their favor and let them experience again the feeling of losing their bright mantle.

Yu Fangzhu had told her many secrets and she made sure to remember each one of them to aid him. However, with what happened to her in the last lifetime, she could use the secrets that Yu Fangzhu told her to her own use.

The Chu family had better watch their back and not go against her or else, the price to pay would be too heavy for them.

Lin Xiaofei coldly smiled and walked with Lin Xiaomeng behind her.

When they were outside the Receiving Hall, Lin Xiaomeng anxiously asked his granddaughter, "Fei\'er, are you\'re really not planning to not marry?"

He was worried that what Lin Xiaofei said back in the receiving hall was only due to her anger and wanted to ask her if she was serious. Although the Lin family was indeed behind her back and wouldn\'t let her suffer, Lin Xiaomeng also knew that the Lin family wasn\'t in favor of Lin Xiaofei and if he wasn\'t around anymore, they would brandish their claws to her.

He fought in battles with merciless people and killed others, and survived. So, how can he not know what the Lin family really thinks of Lin Xiaofei? He would be an idiot if he didn\'t realize it.

This was also the reason why he took Lin Xiaofei from the Zhou family. The Zhou residence was full of snakes and beasts in human skin that no one would be able to detect anything wrong.

But Lin Xiaomeng\'s daughter mysteriously died there and he was sure this would also be the destiny of Lin Xiaofei if she didn\'t leave that place.

He wasn\'t able to take her as soon as her mother died because she was too young, an infant, and as the maternal family, they couldn\'t do anything when the Zhou family complained.

At that time, they were grieving and didn\'t have the time to look into the situation of Lin Xiaofei and since she was still too young, the Zhou family treated her not warm and not cold. However, when she showed that childish and crude attitude to the world, the Zhou family was the quickest to let her go.

Now that Lin Xiaomeng was old, he had to fake his ignorance towards the Lin family\'s false favorable treatment with Lin Xiaofei, or else, he would have already made everyone know of his intention and these evil people would hide their claws too.

And that\'s why Lin Xiaomeng was rushing to marry off Lin Xiaofei. He was no longer a young man and his military tally were already given back to the Imperial family. He wanted her to marry a nobleman that could support and protect Lin Xiaofei when he\'s gone.

He thought that the Chu family was the perfect candidate for this duty and was glad to have them but with their intention to break off the engagement, Lin Xiaomeng became conflicted.

He suddenly remembered what Lin Xiaofei said at the receiving hall and asked, "What does Fei\'er meant by saying you had someone in mind as a marriage partner?"
