'Things can't end like this!'."There are no grievance between us. If you let me go today I'll be forever grateful! "Jiang LangNing struggled to get away from the maid who tried the rope on her neck in an attempt to suffocate her.
"Huaiya, you guys must be treating my sister too gently. If she's still seeking to repay my kindness in the future." Jiang Birou said with a smile on her face as she fanned herself so elegantly.
After their master said they pulled the rope harder causes Jiang LangNing to suffocate more.
"Ugh" escapes from her lips.
"Dont worry mistress. Even after miss Jiang LangNing dies today, She will remember your grace." One of the maids said with a slight smirk on her face.
"I'll....Remember....You....You....F*cking...B*tch!"
'I...my savings....My mansions....My....beloved celebrities perhaps it's time to say goodbye...'She thought while crying internally.
A memory flashes past her mind suddenly. A man in a black suit was standing at the side of the stage where she was before her death.
"....Wei duyan? What is he doing here? He's my archenemy. Could it be that....The accident during the banquet was intentional?!"
'Who on earth did I provoke? Why is everyone trying to kill me?" She thought as she swayed and fell on the floor with her eyes closed shut.
"Mistress, it's done. She has stoped breathing". The maid said as she kept her finger close to Jiang LangNing's nose to check.
"Great. Let's leave her corpse here and collect it another day. I'm meeting the second prince tomorrow so I'll need a Good night's rest". Jiang Birou said while trying to stand up with help of her maid.
[Outside Jiang LangNing's Chamber]
A man had man siting on the branch of a tree for hours while drinking a bottle of wine.
"Ah, This puts me in such a Good mood." The firm from earlier emerges from Jiang LangNing's room with a refreshing smile and the maids followed her like convoys of cars.
'Why is Jiang Birou awake and wandering around in the middle of the night? What is she up to?' The man on the branch as he help unto the bottle of wine. The man had a perfect feature with dark purple hair, phoneix eyes and a pair of thin lips with a straight pointed nose.
'It seems like that courtyard belongs to the eldest daughter is Jiang LangNing family. I wonder if some thing interesting happened there.
"Young master!" The man's servant called out to him as he saw his master had jumped from the trees at last.
"It seems like something exciting is going on in Ninguan mansion. I'm going to take a look. Do not follow me." The man said as he jumped towards Jiang LangNing's Chamber. Which terrified the poor servant as he caught the wine the man thrown towards him." Ah....yo..Young Master!Please remember the rule and regulations! The rules and regulations!!!"
[Jiang LangNing's Chamber]
Jiang LangNing slowly opened her eyelids to check if Jiang Birou and minions had gone.
"Phew...Good thing I used to work with artists and know a thing or two about playing dead. Otherwise, I really would be dead now
She stood up to sit down on her butt as she held her neck while coughing violently.
'Damn it. I can deal with transmigrating here and not having any money or handsome guys around, but I can't believe that I'm a part of such a lousy plot!'
'It was not wise to stay here for long. I better run fast'. She thought as she stood up making her way towards the wardrobe.
But she halted her movement.
'No wait. I'm completely unfamiliar with this ancient period. So I should try to find some money first.' She started to damage through the room but the only thing she could see was ragged cloth.
'What?! There's nothing here at all! This young lady is too pitiful. I can't seem to find anything of value in this room!'
She left her room and peeked her little head to look around with a michevious smile as she looked like a robber at work with that sack bag at her back.
'But the advantage of being the unfavourable one is that nobody will notice me even if I sneak out at night....'
"Phew". Someone whispered close to her ears in the process she was started. Because of the shock she felt she tripped but the man caught her just in time before she feel. It was a magically moment.
'Such a handsome face....' She thought as her eyes widened and her face was heating up but everything left her body and mind she she felt a cold metal object kiss her neck. It was a sword.'
'Huh?'
"What a coincidence that we've both come to rob the same house....I've never experience such a dog eat dog situation before". She was seriously speechless at his statement." So feel me, which do you value more...money or your life?" The man from the trees from before said to her with a smirk.
'Huh'
"Wai....Wait....Good sir, let's talk this out." She said while trying to remove the sword from her neck while sweating heavily.
'Is the security of rich families during ancient times really so weak? Does anyone even care about theft and murder? I just want to live my life as an ordinary rich person! Ahhh!' She screamed internally while sweating buckets.
"All money is in the bundle. Please be magnanimous and let me live." Jiang LangNing said as she dropped the sack bag on the floor with a thud.
"Huh? You're surprising sensible. In that case..." he said while looking at bay that was thrown on the floor.
Jiang LangNing clenched her fist and punched him in his stomach which made his eyes widened in pain.
"Hi-yah!!!!"
"Hmph! Dog eat dog? Young man, you're still much too naive." She said while dusting her palm while smiling proudly." I have a black belt in taekeondo and used to practice muaythai. Do you really think you can threaten me with your tiny fist?"
The man fell on the floor be cause of impact. His face was pale is he clutch his stomach slightly.
"How impudent!"
"So what if I am what are you gonna do about it? You seen like decent enough person, Yet you tried to snatch money from a little girl....You..." She said as she lower herself to his level with a teasing smile as she held unto her sack bag.
Then suddenly her agent instinct took over as she got a closer look at her face.
'Wait....Wait a minute!'

'Wonderful! I don't expect to rub into such a potential celebrity-to-be in this God Forsaken place!' She thought as she rejoiced internally.
She grabbed him by this shoulder which made him a little bit started but he had no time to think as she virgously him as she spoke." Hey handsome are you interested in living the light and earning a million dollars every month? Are you interested in reaching the pinnacle of your life and becoming a top celebrity?

"Stop talking nonsense, or else...or else I'll cut out your tonuge!" He said as he pointed his trebleming finger and her with his dizzying be cause of her previous action.
"Never mind cutting out my tongue. Let's talk about out potential collaboration instead!" Jiang LangNing said while rummaging her sack bag looking for something." With your superior looks and fine body". She found what she was looking for. It was a pen and a paper.
"As long as you agree to work for me, I guarantee that I'll turn you into the most handsome man and most discussed topic of this era!" She said with a bright smile.
'It seems like Jiang LangNing is quite different from the rumors'. Chu Yu Du thought with a neutral face.
"Hiring me to work for you? Who do you think you are? You little thief." He said teasingly.
Jiang LangNing simply grabbed him By his chin and brought her face closer to his making him to blush a little. She had a powerful aura surrounding her.

A light chuckle escapes his lips.
"Little thief, you are very interesting. In that case, I guess I'll let you off for the time being. Untill we meet again!" He said has he made his way out of the courtyard.
"Hmph! Excuse me? I'm pretty sure you're the only thief here. I an the eldest daughter of the marquis!" She scoffed at his faded back. As he left the courtyard she began to continue her space plan.
'Now then....I guess I'll leave now before anyone notices...' But she stopped for a minute and started to thinking with her finger in her chin.
'Wait a minute...Why do I still need to run away right now? I an the famous Jiang LangNing!"
"What am I running for?!" She said as she threw her sack bag on the floor.
