Transmigrated as the Villainess, Troubled by the Cuteness!-Chapter 189 - 153: Aaaahhhh Princess

Wen Ranchen looked at the Jade in the storekeeper’s hand and suddenly hesitated to reach out. Did the Princess...know?

"Young Master Wen? Do you want it?"

Wen Ranchen then came back to his senses, hurriedly took it, holding this small cup of jade in his hands, momentarily unsure how to react.

As someone who had run a stall in the Capital City for decades, the storekeeper immediately noticed that the man in front of him had an unusual relationship with the woman from earlier. But regardless of how unusual, he still seemed like a young lad.

Being experienced in such matters, the storekeeper said a rare few words, "As a man, there are some things you shouldn’t let a woman say."

Wen Ranchen stood in front of the stall for a long while before saying, "Thank you."

The storekeeper’s business suddenly increased, Wen Ranchen had an attractive appearance, and in the short while he stood there, he attracted quite a few young women to come over.

The storekeeper roughly counted and couldn’t help but sigh, today might be the fastest he’ll close up shop.

"If you really want to thank this old man, just stay here a little longer."

Wen Ranchen thought about it and actually nodded.

Wen Ranchen stood there gracefully, out of place with the surroundings as if he were an aloof immortal, making the storekeeper feel somewhat embarrassed, so he borrowed a stool from another shop for Wen Ranchen to sit behind his stall, at least slightly shielding him from the crazed young women.

Wen Ranchen’s sitting posture was very upright, even while sitting there was not a hint of relaxation, his straight posture conveyed a sense of power, a sign of his iron-blooded spirit from the military camp.

Yet this handsome and seemingly dangerous man was carefully holding a cup of jade in his hands, his expression gentle, softening the coldness around him, attracting countless young women looking for excuses to catch a glimpse.

The storekeeper couldn’t help but sigh, "Youth truly is wonderful."

Wen Ranchen didn’t care about the girls stealing glances at him, and merely kept holding the jade gently, sipping from it.

The things favored by Her Highness are indeed the best.

After Shen Jingxian spoke with Fu Xuan, the atmosphere between them improved significantly from the start.

They headed towards the poetry gathering, occasionally sharing childhood anecdotes, causing Shen Jingxian to laugh continuously.

Fu Xuan could even imagine, from the Princess’s reserved laughter, her elegance and innocence.

Shen Jingxian was a professionally trained princess, she wouldn’t laugh unless she truly couldn’t help it, what’s more, as a princess, she had to constantly maintain the Imperial Family’s image, couldn’t laugh out loud like some common folk, she must keep her voice as gentle and flowing as a stream.

Shen Jingxian pinched her thigh for a long time to barely maintain her voice at a stream-like level, today thoughts of gentler streams were off the table.

Because she had to focus on not laughing too loudly, Shen Jingxian was busy pinching her thigh, unaware of her surroundings, and when she passed by a small stall, her veil got caught and was pulled off.

Shen Jingxian only felt a lack of the usual constraint on her face and didn’t react immediately until someone recognized her on the street and shouted "Princess," only then did Shen Jingxian realize her veil was gone.

Uh oh, busted.

It was said that when her body was occupied previously, many inappropriate things were done, causing the people to resent her greatly. Although her mother had said that she didn’t need to worry about it anymore and it had all been handled, Shen Jingxian couldn’t help but imagine the scene of her being caught and burned as a demon.

After all, she never thought she had a way out from the start. Everything she did since the Northern Land was meant to give this body the reputation of a demon before she completely disappeared, forcing her father and mother by public opinion to execute her. That way, even if she really disappeared, it would maximize Yunyi Country’s chances of survival.

Now that she had returned, thinking back to what she did, Shen Jingxian’s lingering fear was understandable.

The man who first spoke, seeing the Princess’s frightened face, couldn’t help but feel guilty for alarming Her Highness with his sudden exclamation.

And those who turned toward the man’s shout caught a glimpse of the Princess’s startled expression that she hadn’t yet managed to smooth away.

It seems the rumors were true, both the Princess’s spirit and body had become very frail since her return.

But in truth, the fear on Shen Jingxian’s face was merely a reflex from being suddenly called out to unprepared.

Once she gathered her composure, seeing the sympathetic gazes from those around her, she was utterly bewildered.

Nevertheless, since the other person did inappropriate things with her body, she planned to take the opportunity today to apologize, a Princess must set a good example for the people.

Even if she wasn’t the one who did those bad things, it was still done using her body.

Just as Shen Jingxian was about to speak, someone nearby began to wail.

"It’s so great to see you’re okay, Your Highness, the common folk have been so worried these days that they haven’t been eating well or sleeping well, fearful something might happen to you, wah wah wah wah wah."

Ah, they’re crying.

Shen Jingxian wanted to offer some comfort, "I’m sorry for making everyone worry, I..."

"What are you talking about? Your Highness is a celestial being from the heavens, how could anything happen to her? Her Highness’s body is a treasure of Yunyi! We must protect Princess Yi Fen at all costs!"

Shen Jingxian: ?

What’s this talk about Yunyi’s treasure, what are these people talking about?

Her mother hadn’t mentioned anything about such rumors to her.

Shen Jingxian, "Thank you, but..." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"Your Highness must be tired from walking, if you don’t mind, I can arrange a carriage for you!"

Shen Jingxian now vigorously shook her hand, "No need, your kind thoughts are appreciated, thank you."

"Ahhhhh, it really is Your Highness, only Her Highness could be so gentle, thoughtful, kind-hearted, and intelligent..." numerous compliments followed.

Shen Jingxian: "I..."

"Your Highness!!"

"I..."

"Princess Yi Fen!!!"

"Ah..."

"Princess Yi Fen!!"

Shen Jingxian gave up on apologizing. Apologize? Apologize for what, looking at these people’s excited appearances, they clearly didn’t need her apology!!

Fu Xuan had heard about the Princess’s popularity before, but he had never witnessed it firsthand.

So many people, both men and women, old and young, were all present.

Yet despite being liked by so many, the Princess did not show the slightest bit of self-satisfaction, remaining very humble. Compared to the Princess, he was easily pleased by the affections of a few women.

There was a reason the Princess rejected him.

At that moment, listening to the people eagerly calling for the Princess, Fu Xuan realized for the first time that he indeed was not suited for the Princess.

Fu Xuan had been standing alongside Shen Jingxian, even keeping an eye on the surroundings for her, but gradually, he retreated to stand behind Shen Jingxian, only wishing to be invisible.

Being rejected by the Princess was too heavy a blow for him.

In his dejected state, Fu Xuan failed to notice the approaching danger.

"What a flamboyant, seductive man, daring to be so close to Her Highness, die!"
