[1] Transmigrated Into a World of Villains

She had already looked into it. Among the noble girls participating this year, there were only a few, and aside from Lan Yixuan, she wasn't worried at all.

Her luck was unmatched. Just that alone set her apart.

"Or was your talk of being my best friends just a lie? Your fathers are only fourth-rank officials, while mine is a second-rank official. Were you just trying to get close to me to climb the social ladder?

Honestly, I don't lack friends. If I lose two, it won't make a difference, but if you overstep, there's no need for us to stay in touch."

Fang Silian and Chu Lan'er were stunned.

The choice between staying close to the Prime Minister's daughter or risking their future on becoming a princess Concubine was suddenly crystal clear.

They both knew the answer.

They wanted to become a princess Concubine!

But they were afraid they might not be chosen. To be honest, among the girls this year, Lan Jinjing had the best chance. Her reputation was great, her status was high, and although she was not the real daughter, the Prime Minister treated her as one.

Nurturing love is stronger than blood.

After raising a child for so long, there's bound to be a strong bond.

The two left the Prime Minister's residence with their heads down, feeling defeated.

On the way home, Fang Silian muttered, "What do we do now? Should we still participate in the Concubine selection?"

Chu Lan'er hesitated, "I want to see the Seventh Prince. What if, just what if I get chosen?"

Participating meant being seen, and being seen meant having a chance. Not participating meant no chance at all.

Fang Silian fumed, "It's all Lan Yixuan's fault, giving us such terrible advice! She's bad luck! I shouldn't have bothered her today."

Ahhhhh!

She was furious!

It was like shooting herself in the foot.

Why did she have to go and talk to that jinx, Lan Yixuan?

Now she had put herself in a tough spot.

...

"Big Brother." On her way back to her room, Lan Yixuan ran into Lan Moxiu.

He had witnessed everything that had happened earlier. His usually indifferent face showed a slight frown, "Father still won't let you leave the residence?"

Lan Yixuan lowered her head and obediently replied, "No, but I'm used to it by now."

"Got used to being locked up.

Since the day she returned to the Prime Minister's residence, she hadn't been able to walk out openly. Every time she went out, it was during the dead of night, sneaking out quietly.

In this mansion, it seemed that apart from her big brother, no one liked her.

Sigh.

She truly shouldn't have returned in the first place. Although life in the countryside was without family, at least it was free.

But, because of grandmother's last wish... she had no choice but to comply.

Grandmother said that only by returning to the Prime Minister's residence could she survive.

But why, grandmother?

Mother doesn't like me at all.

'Regretting coming back home?' It was as if Lan Moxiu could see right through her thoughts.
