"I am grateful to heaven and earth."
"I am thankful to my parents."
"I am a sinner."
"I led Yuyou astray."
"I let my brother down."
……
"Keke, what are you mumbling about over there?" Ye Shuang looked at Tang Keke kneeling on the sofa and shouting, feeling a bit helpless.
Do you like the movie lines so much that I should get a whip to hit you instead?
"I am reflecting on my mistakes," Keke said.
"So, what exactly did you do wrong?"
Keke was stumped by the question. After hesitating for a moment, she finally nodded seriously, "The mistake is that I made a mistake."
That's a very... circular statement.
"Come over for breakfast first."
"Coming!" Keke, who was already hungry, bounced up from the sofa and scurried over to the dining table. Today, Ye Shuang hadn't prepared an elaborate breakfast either, basically just cooking some congee with lean pork and preserved egg and frying some crispy chips.
"Chopped scallions, fried crisps, diced radish, pickled mustard tuber," Ye Shuang listed. "We're just having congee today."
Then he thought for a moment, "Oh, there's also some cold spicy shredded beef, but it's a bit spicy. It's better to have something lighter in the morning."
"Brother, I want more preserved egg in mine, preserved egg is delicious."
"Alright."
Tang Keke took the bowl handed to her by Ye Shuang and sniffed it, "Ooh, looks tasty."
Ye Shuang smiled slightly, "I cooked the congee in a clay pot, so the flavor should be good."
Watching Tang Keke blow gently on a spoonful of the meat congee, Ye Shuang then said, "Keke."
"Hmm?"
"I hope you two can focus your energy on other things, not all day long on 'must succeed, must succeed'." Ye Shuang rarely spoke to Tang Keke in a tone of an elder.
"To put it bluntly, Yuyou's worldview isn't fully formed yet. You can't always fill her head with strange knowledge."
Last night, Bai Yuyou didn't wear any clothes, just stuck her butt out taking a selfie. No matter how you look at it, that's not good.
This isn't some adult content.
"Oh, oh, oh." Tang Keke felt a bit guilty, but if she didn't help, it would be hard for Yuyou to make further progress—if brother gets taken by Sister Chen Qin later, wouldn't Yuyou only be able to remain a sister forever?
If they fail, at the wedding banquet, she might end up at the same table as that fat cat, Yi Wan.
No, no, no.
It seems Plan B is needed.
Tang Keke felt this task was a long and arduous one. To prop up the hopeless Bai Yuyou, she might need to compose a "Memorial on Sending Out the Troops - by Tang Keke".
"Thump." Seeing Tang Keke's expression, Ye Shuang reached out and gave her a knock on the head.
"Ouch."
After a while, Bai Yuyou also got up. Perhaps after a night's rest, the girl was in a better mood.
However, she still asked Ye Shuang, "Ye Shuang... sanitary pad, can't find."
"Oh, I tidied them into that small drawer for you. Did it come?"
"Mm, discovered this morning." Bai Yuyou said softly.
Ye Shuang couldn't help but sigh inwardly. So her special days had arrived, no wonder the girl was so emotionally volatile last night.
"Have some congee, it'll warm you up nicely." Ye Shuang pointed at the preserved egg and lean pork congee.
After sitting down, Bai Yuyou's face seemed a bit paler, making her look like a fragile porcelain doll. The girl took small sips of her congee but noticed Tang Keke beside her seemed deep in thought.
"What's wrong, Keke?"
"Nothing, I'm pondering the meaning of life." Tang Keke's gaze was profound, looking up at the stars at a 45-degree angle, though there was a bit of chopped scallion stuck at the corner of her mouth.
"For lunch, I'm taking Yuyou to Chen Qin's house. Keke, do you want to come?" Ye Shuang asked.
Keke shook her head, "I won't go. I have a lot of packages to receive at home today."
She had bought a whole bunch of merchandise that she hadn't even finished unboxing. Looks like she needed to figure out how to squeeze another display cabinet into her room.
Ye Shuang nodded and didn't ask further.
Just then, the phone on the table vibrated.
He glanced at it and saw it was a message from the user "Rabbit" he added last night.
Rabbit: Hubby, are you up? Want to play games together tonight?
Ye Shuang: Just call me Xiao Ye. Probably not tonight, I have some things to do... Do you have work tomorrow?
Rabbit: Yeah, tired to death every day. How about you?
Ye Shuang: Pretty much the same, so I probably won't have much time recently either.
Rabbit: What do you do for work? A bit curious.
Ye Shuang: Just a worker, doing odd jobs for the boss.
Rabbit: I see, we're similar then, but I work at my dad's shop.
Ye Shuang: [Sticker.jpg]
Then the other side went quiet. Seeing no reply, Ye Shuang put down his phone and continued drinking his congee.
"Brother, was that a message from Sister Chen Qin?"
"No, a friend." Ye Shuang shook his head, then added after a thought, "A friend I've never met in person."
People always cherish old connections.
Tang Keke was puzzled.
Can someone you've never met be considered a friend?
Just then, the phone vibrated again. Ye Shuang looked and saw it was another message from Rabbit.
Rabbit: What's your boss like?
Ye Shuang: Pretty good, very diligent and thorough in her work.
Rabbit: And?
Ye Shuang was taken aback. And?
What does she mean, does she want me to describe my boss's characteristics?
Ye Shuang: She's also pretty, wealthy, and seems to have a good personality.
Rabbit: Anything else?
Ye Shuang: "..."
Huh?
Just as Ye Shuang was wondering what the other person was trying to get at, Rabbit suddenly sent a message asking what you dislike about your boss.
Seeing this, Ye Shuang understood. Oh, so she wants to hear the bad things about the boss. It seems this woman called Rabbit has a lot of grievances working for her parents at their shop.
No wonder she kept asking like that.
Ye Shuang thought for a moment and then replied with a few lines.
Ye Shuang: My boss and I are acquaintances. She's a bit stubborn and doesn't take good care of herself.
Ye Shuang: Actually, there aren't really any bad points. At least I can't find any faults. She's qualified as a boss.
Rabbit: Hahaha, seems you think quite highly of her. Got a photo? Curious.
Photo...
Out of respect for privacy, Ye Shuang naturally wouldn't send a photo. But he subconsciously checked his gallery and found photos of Chen Qin inside—one in black stockings, one highlighting her figure.
Ye Shuang: "..."
These were things only suitable for personal collection.
Ye Shuang: Alright, I need to get busy now.
Rabbit: OK.
Ye Shuang put down his phone, ending the conversation.
After breakfast, Ye Shuang also picked out an outfit for Bai Yuyou to wear to see Uncle Chen. Since the temperature wasn't high, it was better to consider long sleeves.
In the room, Bai Yuyou was like a cute dress-up doll, willing to put on anything Ye Shuang handed her.
"Looks like we need to replenish some clothes for the changing season." Ye Shuang realized most of the clothes he bought for Yuyou were summer styles.
All sorts of little dresses.
Ye Shuang would never admit this was his personal preference. It was purely because Bai Yuyou just looked good in all kinds of dresses.
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
