Hiss—!

"Niannian~ Daddy will treat you well from now on!"

Lin Ao wore a look of deep affection as he tried his best to perform, even managing to force his eyes to turn red.

However, he was unaware of the expression on Liu Nian's face at this moment.

Gu Wanqing, the eldest daughter of the Gu Family—Liu Nian knew this woman. Although she did not belong to the faction of Ye Chen, she had interacted with her during certain operations.

She had been engaged to Uncle Lin Ao, but was later snatched away by Xiao Fan in a high-profile display, and Uncle Lin Ao had died at their hands more than once.

What shocked her was not that she appeared here, but that she saw a line of information appear on her body.

[Has deviated from the Destiny Path]

Only this single piece of information appeared, unlike Lin Ao, who had basically no privacy at all.

Therefore, Gu Wanqing looked at me in shock; it was on me that she saw the exact same information.

Liu Nian was right; Gu Wanqing had indeed seen the same information on her.

Gu Wanqing looked at the little girl in shock. Who was she?

Why did the pop-up information that appeared when the panel first manifested appear now?

Both of them remained still; now was not an appropriate time to act.

They both had a tacit understanding and continued to watch Lin Ao's performance.

Lin Ao was still reciting his affectionate lines.

The corner of Liu Nian's mouth twitched. Uncle Lin Ao, the other party is just like me; she can see your panel information. To think you went to such great lengths to make me cooperate...

Liu Nian sighed.

Seeing Liu Nian like this, Gu Wanqing almost lost her composure and burst out laughing.

"So~ Wanqing, I hope you can understand me! You can understand, right?"

Lin Ao was still performing affectionately, completely unaware that his ruse had been seen through by Gu Wanqing via the panel from the very beginning.

Even without the panel, Gu Wanqing had other ways to expose him.

"I understand, I understand perfectly. I can take my time getting along with Lin Nian, and I will try my best to be a good stepmother. Feelings can be cultivated."

Gu Wanqing decided to play along with him a little longer; this was the first time she had seen Lin Ao like this.

"But there is no room for anyone else in my heart."

Lin Ao lowered his head and secretly glanced at Gu Wanqing to see how she would react.

Who knew that Gu Wanqing would act out of character? She let go of the arm she was holding and let her slender fingers slide slowly onto her own leg.

Lin Ao's downward gaze was drawn to her fingers.

Gu Wanqing flicked her fingers lightly, pulling her already short skirt up a few inches further.

"Could it be~ that there isn't even room for a pair of black stockings?"

Her tone was seductive, carrying a hint of pitiful charm.

[Character's current state/thoughts: So tempting. You cannot succumb to mere black stockings, Lin Ao, you must hold firm!]

[Character's heart rate: 120.]

[Current goal: Break off the engagement.]

[H-index: 85.]

Liu Nian rolled her eyes at Lin Ao and ran to the side to watch the show. You didn't lose unjustly, Uncle Lin Ao.

The information Gu Wanqing and Liu Nian saw was identical, except for the [Current goal] section. In Liu Nian's eyes, Lin Ao's [Current goal] regarding her was still to help her find her parents; everything else was exactly the same.

"Is there none?"

Gu Wanqing slowly pulled Lin Ao's hand over and placed it on her thigh.

Feeling a trace of smoothness, Lin Ao retracted his palm as if electrocuted, sitting up straight with a slightly stiff posture.

[Character's current state/thoughts: Hiss----!]

[Character's heart rate: 130.]

[H-index: 90.]

"N-no..."

Lin Ao's heart raced. How did this damn woman become like this? She almost made me break character.

"Then, what about a little lace?"

Gu Wanqing leaned in again, placing her index finger on her neckline and pulling it down slightly.

"Pfft!!"

Lin Ao glanced over sideways. With those black stockings wrapped around those big white mounds, he couldn't take it anymore, covered his nose, and turned away.

[Character's current state/thoughts: Hiss-hiss-hiss-hiss-!]

[Character's heart rate: 140.]

[H-Index: 100.]

Gu Wanqing looked at the adorable Lin Ao, stood up, and let out a laugh like tinkling silver bells.

Liu Nian held her forehead with one hand, shaking her head and sighing on the side.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. With such a clumsy excuse, who are you trying to fool?"

"Lin Ao, born in XXXX, age: 24 years, 9 months, 18 days, and 08 hours!"

Gu Wanqing decided to show Lin Ao something real; she took a notebook out of her bag and softly read out Lin Ao's information.

Lin Ao turned his head, looking at Gu Wanqing with curiosity. What was this woman doing now?

"1 year old... 2 years old... 4 years old, first time at an amusement park, 5 years old..."

"At 7 years old, you got into a fight with Liu Jialin and were confined at home by Aunt Li to watch educational videos for a week, 8... 9..."

Gu Wanqing smiled as she watched the dumbfounded Lin Ao, while Liu Nian also had her mouth wide open.

"18 years old, stayed home for 7 months and 12 days to recover from a fracture. Do you need me to keep reading what happened after that?"

Gu Wanqing looked at Lin Ao with a playful expression. The reason she had such detailed information was that she was afraid something might have gone wrong with the changes this time, so she investigated Lin Ao's history from the past to the present to see if it matched her memories and if anything had changed.

At the same time, she also investigated Xiao Fan, as she needed to compare the information.

She was afraid that if Lin Ao's path and Xiao Fan's path had also changed, then future events would become even more uncontrollable and dangerous.

Lin Ao would be in even greater danger, but fortunately, everything so far had been the same as in her memories.

Except for the fact that she had fired Xiao Fan this time, and the appearance of the panel.

The hair on Lin Ao's body stood on end; this woman was too dangerous.

[Character Current Status/Thoughts: Terrified, wants to escape. Dangerous! Dangerous! Dangerous!]

"You~ can't escape~"

Gu Wanqing narrowed her eyes, placed both hands on Lin Ao's shoulders, and blew gently into his ear.

"Ah--!"

Lin Ao let out a strange cry and leaned back against the sofa.

Gu Wanqing let out another laugh like tinkling silver bells.

Liu Nian saw a scene of a monster and a little white rabbit, and that little white rabbit was Lin Ao.

In the car.

Gu Wanqing looked at Lin Ao, who was sulking. This little man was usually so aloof and couldn't take a joke, but why was he so petty too?

[Character Current Status/Thoughts: Angry! So angry!]

Liu Nian sat between them and secretly passed a note to Gu Wanqing.

Gu Wanqing took it with a knowing look and opened it to read.

"Let's find a place later and have a chat."

Gu Wanqing read it softly.

Soon, they arrived at a large shopping mall, and Lin Ao was dragged along, unwilling and reluctant.

"Alright now~ stop being angry~"

Gu Wanqing acted coquettishly toward Lin Ao, drawing strange looks from the people around them.

The alluring Gu Wanqing and the cold-faced Lin Ao, holding hands with a cute and pretty little girl.

It made everyone secretly exclaim in their hearts: a divine couple, plus a cute child, an invincible combination.

Some men even stared at Lin Ao with red eyes. Damn it, having such a perfect wife and still keeping a cold face, he's too much of a man.

"Tonight, there's something you'll want to see~"

Seeing that Lin Ao remained unmoved, Gu Wanqing leaned against his ear and dropped a bombshell on him.

[Character Current Status/Thoughts: Hiss--!]
