"You little wench, you think you're so great just because you've latched onto Fang Zhiyi, huh?" Liu Wenxia's shrill curses rang out, "Mingshan, hold her down!"
Fang Qingci struggled desperately, but she was only a young girl. Faced with the restraint of several people, she could only writhe, her face flushed red.
"I see Fang Zhiyi treasures you dearly, but don't forget, we are your biological parents!" Fang Mingshan cursed.
"Uncle, Uncle will be back soon!" Fang Qingci cried out.
"Hurry up, the bride price has already been negotiated. We need to send her over quickly tomorrow; they're paying a hundred thousand in bride price!" Liu Wenxia urged. "So what if Fang Zhiyi comes back? Did you think you could turn into a golden phoenix? You're just a lowly, money-losing burden!"
"You little bitch, you have no conscience either. Our family raised you through thick and thin, and now you're learning from that ungrateful wretch, are you?" Old Lady Fang stepped forward, wanting to strike her, but was stopped by Old Man Fang.
"Don't hit her. What if she's bruised and they don't want her tomorrow?"
Fang Tianqi stood to the side, gritting his teeth. He had long been jealous of Fang Qingci's life. She used to wear ragged clothes, but now she not only got to go to school, but she also had new clothes and a new backpack. She even had someone drop her off and pick her up from school. Why? He was the true treasure of the Fang family!
"Be good, Tianqi. Once this little bitch is married off, all your uncle's property will be yours," Old Lady Fang even remembered to turn her head and add.
Fang Tianqi nodded repeatedly.
"What are you thinking?" Little Hei was frantic. It hadn't expected the original plot point to happen so early, and right now, Fang Zhiyi was still in the holding cell.
Fang Zhiyi looked relaxed. "I smashed someone's shop and beat them up. Being detained is getting off lightly."
"No! She's just a little girl, aren't you worried at all?"
Fang Zhiyi leaned his head against the wall. "Little Hei... you're becoming more and more human."
Little Hei blushed slightly but quickly retorted, "Bah, is this the time to praise me?"
"In the original plot, she clearly suffered so much, so why did she still fall for it? I think she must have suspected something, but couldn't let go of her affection for her parents," Fang Zhiyi said. "This is a great opportunity to let her see clearly exactly what kind of people her parents are."
"The price is too high!"
"You're wrong. I left her so many things... As long as she can be brave... that's enough."
"You, oh you..." Though Little Hei was anxious, all it could do was pace around in circles.
Back at the Fang household, seeing Fang Qingci stop resisting, Liu Wenxia was extremely satisfied. "That's right. Would your parents ever harm you? That cripple may be lame, but he treats his wife very well. You'll enjoy a good life once you marry him, and don't forget your parents when the time comes."
Fang Mingshan also chimed in, "You should have just listened sooner, making me waste my energy for nothing."
None of them noticed the pain and subsequent relief in Fang Qingci's eyes.
"Mom, Dad, I understand."
Her attitude put the Fang family much more at ease. As long as she didn't make a fuss, this matter would be easy to handle.
Old Lady Fang immediately and generously offered to boil an egg for her—a treatment she had never received at home before. Old Man Fang also sat down nearby, rambling on about how unfilial Fang Zhiyi was. Just as the whole family breathed a sigh of relief, Fang Qingci suddenly reached out and grabbed the scissors on the table, which she had glanced at several times already.
Only this time, she didn't point the scissors at herself, but thrust them directly at the hand Fang Mingshan was using to grip her. Fang Mingshan reacted quickly, immediately letting go. At that exact moment, Fang Qingci dashed desperately toward the door. Old Lady Fang appeared at the doorway holding the egg, and the two came face to face.
"Mother, stop this wretched girl!" Liu Wenxia roared.
Fang Qingci gritted her teeth, shoved Old Lady Fang aside, and bolted into the courtyard.
But she quickly realized that the courtyard gate was already locked. It seemed the Fang family never intended to let her leave today.
"Run, why don't you run!" Liu Wenxia chased after her, gnashing her teeth.
Fang Mingshan helped his old mother up. "Let's just break one of her legs! This little bitch, I'll explain it to the cripple!"
Watching them, Fang Qingci laughed as tears streamed down her face. "You are not my parents! Where in the world are there parents who abuse their daughter every day! You call me unfilial, you call Uncle unfilial, but with the things you do, do you even deserve to call others unfilial?"
"You want to sell me off for money, and you even want to break my leg! I am a human being, not your merchandise!" Fang Qingci screamed hoarsely, gripping the scissors tightly, her eyes full of sheer determination. "And another thing, my name is not Fang Zhaodi, my name is Fang Qingci! From today onwards, I have nothing to do with you anymore!"
The Fang family was stunned by her words, failing to react for a moment. Liu Wenxia was the first to snap back to her senses, shrieking, "This is rebellion! You heartless wretch, how dare you sever ties with us!"
But immediately after, Fang Qingci began to scream at the top of her lungs, "Help! Help!!!"
The village was quiet at night. Her voice pierced the silent night sky, and the village dogs began to bark in response.
"Scream all you want. A father beating his daughter—let's see who dares to meddle in someone else's family affairs!" Overcome with rage, Fang Mingshan grabbed a wooden stick and advanced toward her.
"Exactly! We used to beat you so much and you always took it quietly. Now you've learned to scream, you unfilial thing!" Fang Tianqi also clamored.
Fang Qingci froze for a moment. Thinking back to the past, aside from crying when she was very little, she had always gritted her teeth and taken the beatings without a sound. Her parents had told her that crying out loud would only result in a worse beating.
Just as Fang Mingshan raised the stick, a furious shout rang out from the top of the adjacent courtyard wall.
"Stop right there!"
Fang Mingshan paused, only to see Boss Wu vault over the wall and jump inside.
"Damn it, Fang Mingshan, what are you doing?" Boss Wu glared, pulling Fang Qingci directly behind him. "Are you trying to beat Fang Zhiyi's daughter? Huh?"
"Wu, how I discipline my daughter is none of your business!" Fang Mingshan fumed.
"None of my business? Do you want to listen to that?"
"Listen to what?" Fang Mingshan asked.
At that moment, heavy pounding echoed on the gate.
"Open the door!"
"I heard the girl Qingci screaming. It's here, right?"
"Fang Mingshan! You better not touch Fang Qingci, or you're dead meat!"
"Liu Wenxia, open the door!"
"Whoever touches our boss's daughter is smashing my livelihood!"
The Fang family's wooden gate simply couldn't withstand the violent impacts. Boss Wu quickly pulled Fang Qingci out of the way just as the double wooden doors crashed down. Before Fang Mingshan could even speak with his eyes wide open, a figure darted in and delivered a flying kick right to his chest.
Xiao Wu looked murderous. "Fuck you, Fang Mingshan! You touch our Qingci, do you have a death wish?"
Behind him surged in over a dozen villagers armed with sticks and clubs.

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."

lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...

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.

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?
