Capítulo 24: Culprit 1
Just as I was about to leave, Ming Xia unexpectedly grabbed me tightly, then swiftly propelled me down the hill, sending me careening towards the pond below.
Before I fell, I took a strong hold on her and in the process we both ended up falling down.
Just as I hit the pond, I felt mind go blank. I couldn't swim and there was no body who could possibly save me.
It was over! My life as the villainess was over way before it even started.
I once hated the fact that I was now Ming Mei, the villainess but recently, I've started to enjoy my life.. with a pretty face and so much power, what would I give to have such.
But it would be gone before I could even hold on to it even for a bit.
"Am I dying?" I said to myself.
Splash**
I heard another splash sound of someone jumping into the water. I couldn't see who it was as their shadow was all I saw.
And before I passed out, the last words I heard, "You can't die until you make me forgive you completely."
***
Opening my eyes, I felt a slight headache hook me so much that I hissed as I sat up from my bed..
I looked around my surroundings, I was back at my room. How come? Didn't I fall into the pond?
Just then, the door dashed open as Sisi made her way in with a bowl of water, but upon seeing him, her eyes literally sparkled in joy and happiness as she ran towards me.
"My lady, you are awake.. thank goodness," she sobbed as she cuddled around me.
Still confused, I cleaned her wet face as I said, "What exactly happened, How am I back in my room?"
"W-well my lady, it's all thanks to the young master and the Third Prince," she replied.
"How so?"
"Well.. my lady, after sometime I couldn't see you or The first lady anywhere so I went into the forest to check on you guys but instead I saw the third Prince and Young Master helping you two out of the pond.. "
"The first Missy was not harmed but only injured slightly in her arm, but you were unconscious and had taken alot of water.. I ran to call the physician but it would have taken time for them to get back and save you, s-so the y-young m-master.. umm.."
Curious on what her next words would be, I urged her to continue, "C'mon, why did you stop? Continue!" And she finally did.
"W-well he k-kissed my lady on the lips," she said as her fair cheek turned red almost immediately and so did mine.
Although it was expected to give mouth to mouth treatment for someone who had taken water from almost drowning.
Still it sounded weird to know that brother in-law had kissed me. Argh!
"Cough! Cough!" I fanned myself with my hands as I was feeling strangely hot.
But before I could ask Sisi more questions, the door dashed open once more and with that, Ming Ciao came into the room, with worry plastered across her face.
" Mei miw how are you? I heard about what happened and quickly rushed in, are you alright?"
She asked as she hugged my tightly but I had to say that no matter how evil Ming Ciao was, she was still a good sister to the villainess.
"I'm sure it's that stupid Ming Xia fault, she must have pushed you intentionally.. just wait until I get an hold of her, then I'll-"
But before she could finish her words, we both heard rushing footsteps as the door opened widely and a group of maids from my residence came in rushing.
"My lady, my lady.. there's trouble.. the two madams are fighting outside your residence!"
The maid said as both I and Ming Xia wede taken by surprise.
Quickly standing up, I wore a green robe and quickly made my way out with Sisi and Ming Ciao.

"You ruthless woman, how there you bring those filthy legs of yours into my daughter's residence after you planned with your daughter to push my daughter into the pond," Hui Li shouted furiously at Bai An who stood there humiliated and angry.
"How can you blame my daughter like that, don't forget that not just Ming Mei fell into the pond, Ming Xia was also a victim!"
She defended as they continued arguing, their voices attracting all the maids and servants around the palace.
Just then, A maid walked towards them as she said, "Madams, the old Madame had asked you both to see her at her residence this minute!"
The maid revealed as upon hearing that, the two of them immediately composed themselves.
Even though they hated one another, they knew well that making their mother in law could get them into the worst punishment ever.
**
After sometime, Ming Xia and Ming Ciao arrived at the old Madame's residence after being informed that their mother and Bai An were called upon.
Upon getting there, they were welcomed by the loud and raging voice of the old Madame, "You good for nothing women!!"
She shouted as she threw her cup towards the two of them but thankfully, Bai An dodge it.
"Grandmother please calm down," Ming Ciao tried to calm her down but the old Madame had an hell of a temper.
"You two woman know of the presence of the third prince in our estate, yet act so childishly.. ruining our family reputation! How foolish of you both!"
"I expected more from you Bai An since I knew Hui Li could easily be angered but you have truly annoyed me today!"
"We apologize mother!" They bowed said as they bent down slightly.
"Save it! Concerning the pond incident.. it was merely an accident, we should just forget about it and take care of both your children instead of fighting like animals," she commented as they both flashed each other deadly glares.
But just then, an unexpected voice spoke up, "the pond may be an accident but the well incident was no accident!"
