"I know, I know, I'm coming right over, just wait, I..."
Du Wanyi was still "very busy." Holding the phone she had snatched from Tang Shouye, she was getting ready to grease her soles and slip away.
You must be joking... Help their Little Hanhan's rival?
She couldn't possibly do such a thing!
But with so many people present, lying through her teeth wasn't quite possible. Most importantly, the Eldest Miss would see right through it. Left with no choice, she could only resort to the thirty-six stratagems.
The Madam's thirty-six stratagems... running away.
Su Su quickly dashed to the doorway, blocking the exit with her body. If it were earlier, she would have just closed the door, but the frustrating part was that the door had already been sent flying by Dongfang Zhan.
The entrance was wide open.
"Wanyi, what's keeping you so busy? Can't you finish speaking before you go?" Su Su wore a gentle smile on her face.
She didn't yield a single inch.
She wasn't sure about anything else, but she was certain that their Zhixia was very upset right now. As a mother, she absolutely could not just stand by and watch!
As for the scheming man or the phoenix man stuff, that could be set aside for now. What she needed to do was ensure her daughter wasn't misunderstood, unable to hold her head high in front of others, or appear a head shorter than the rest.
Absolutely not!
But if it was only at this level... it was still child's play!
Du Wanyi didn't stop. Her body was unusually flexible. She bypassed Su Su's block and easily slipped past her with some incomprehensible footwork!
Su Su: "???"
Did something just slip right past her?
Su Su gritted her teeth, lunged forward, and grabbed onto Du Wanyi: "Wanyi, what's the rush? There's a little misunderstanding with the kids here that needs just a tiny bit of your time. Our family will compensate you for any losses!"
She used every ounce of her strength and finally managed to hard-control the "very busy" Madam.
"Wanyi, it seems you're holding your phone upside down." Su Su was practically hanging onto Du Wanyi, so naturally, she saw it clearly. If she wasn't mistaken... the phone was upside down, and she didn't seem to hear any sound coming from it.
As expected of this witch!!!
Du Wanyi didn't blush and her heart didn't skip a beat: "No I'm not, this phone is just designed this way. Oh, I was a bit busy just now, but I'm done chatting. Right, Susu, what were you saying?"
Su Su: "..."
The gentle smile remained on Su Su's face: "Wanyi, there seems to be a misunderstanding among the kids. Could you please help testify or something, to prove that our Zhixia wasn't lying just now?"
"What standing?" Du Wanyi dug her ear.
"Misunderstanding. There's a little misunderstanding among the kids," Su Su repeated with a smile.
"Hey, I'm not that young, I'm getting on in years, I'm not a kid anymore," Du Wanyi said with a straight face.
Su Su: "???"
Reading and replying with nonsense, huh!
Then don't leave!
Su Su was dead set on helping her daughter today; it wouldn't matter who came. How did the saying go? A mother's love makes her strong. The current Su Su was terrifyingly strong. Even facing an invincible witch, she wouldn't back down an inch!
The two madams were engaging in an "ace against ace" showdown in the hallway. Inside the room, Tang Shouye was dumbfounded.
What are they doing... where am I right now?
Is this still the Dragon Kingdom?
"I can testify that what the President said just now is true."
To the side, Lin Baizhi, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up and started picking sides.
Now, excluding a certain highly troublesome older leftover woman, the biggest problem was the problem child in front of them. In Lin Baizhi's original estimation, Dongfang Zhixia's danger level was the highest, because Dongfang Zhixia didn't dilly-dally and wasn't the least bit sloppy.
She wasn't like the Eldest Miss, who was emotionally stunted, unable to express herself, and constantly harping on about "classmate relationships."
She just had the mindset of a normal person, and a very possessive one at that.
According to reliable information on Lin Baizhi's end, Dongfang Zhixia had already allowed her brother into the villa where she lived. What this meant went without saying; the signal it sent was extremely dangerous!
Now that Dongfang Zhixia was starting to show signs of defeat, and the Eldest Miss's momentum was too fierce, she had to be suppressed a bit, otherwise, she would be kicked out of the game!
Shen Qinghan looked at Lin Baizhi, only just noticing that there was an... irrelevant "stranger" here?
"Why should I believe you?" Shen Qinghan said calmly.
Lin Baizhi wasn't in a rush to argue. She silently looked outside, where the sound of the two madams elbowing each other could still be heard from the doorway.
"Wanyi, let's go, we can't delay the kids' matters."
"Hey, I know, I know, aren't I walking? Hiss, my shoelace is untied, hold on, let me tie my shoelace..."
"But... Wanyi, your shoes don't have shoelaces."
"Ah? Really? Oh, I must have remembered wrongly. Ouch, my stomach hurts so much, I can't hold it in..."
Shen Qinghan: "..."
Hearing the conversation from a certain naturally evil old hag at the door, the Eldest Miss finally confirmed in her heart that what the untrustworthy, despicable, and shameless woman said earlier was probably true.
Actually, after calming down, doubts had already surfaced in Shen Qinghan's mind. A certain female gorilla wouldn't be so stupid as to turn to any doctor in a panic. Combined with what Su Su had said earlier, she was eighty or ninety percent sure.
During the time she was away, some abnormal situations had indeed occurred with a certain idiot.
But... this didn't affect Shen Qinghan's decision to drive Dongfang Zhixia away.
The truth wasn't important right now; what was important was that Dongfang Zhixia wasn't here.
"Do I need to invite you out?" Shen Qinghan ignored Lin Baizhi who had spoken, focusing her gaze on Dongfang Zhixia.
Dongfang Zhixia narrowed her eyes. She wasn't stupid. With the IQ of a certain problem child, she could definitely guess the truth of the matter. But the problem was, the truth wasn't important right now.
What was important was that she had indeed forced Ye Cheng just now.
A game between experts is decided in a split second. Today, she had lost.
She would leave.
Dongfang Zhixia stood up, and before leaving, she gave Ye Cheng a "big gift package."
"If you really care about him, pick up the syringe on the floor and do a checkup. If not, pretend I didn't say anything." After saying this, Dongfang Zhixia left, walking outside.
One sentence cornered Shen Qinghan!
If Shen Qinghan didn't continue with the blood test she was doing just now, it meant she didn't care about Ye Cheng's health, and that she was selfish!
Ye Cheng, who had been AFK on the hospital bed for quite a while, was already sweating profusely.
Damn it, President, if you're going to leave, just leave, why are you spouting nonsense!
Ye Cheng clearly felt that the way the Eldest Miss was looking at him now was a bit off...
Shen Qinghan picked up the syringe from the floor and started flipping through Ye Cheng's previous medical records and surgical results. Rustle, rustle... the only sound that could be heard in the room was the flipping of the medical records.
The sound stopped.
"Give me a reason not to examine you." Shen Qinghan looked calmly at Ye Cheng.
Ye Cheng: "..."
Eldest Miss, you can't be fooled by the President! She was tricking you! Don't I know the condition of my own body!
While screaming hysterically in his heart, Ye Cheng's brain was spinning wildly as he searched for a suitable solution.
Think fast, Handsome bastard, you can do this, you've got this!
With his head lowered, Ye Cheng completely failed to notice that the long-disappeared twisted black text had appeared in front of him once again. By the time he had smoothed out the wrinkles in his brain, ready to pull a stunt, and raised his head to bravely face the young miss, he was left utterly dumbfounded.
[A desperate scream!]
[Haven't you heard that heaven always leaves a way out!]
[Host, please follow your heart and choose to either reveal or conceal the truth!]
[Task Requirement: Reveal the truth!]
[Task Reward: Turn bad luck into good fortune!]
[Task Requirement: Conceal the truth!]
[Task Reward: Foresight!]
Ye Cheng: "???"

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

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?
