Wang Dong'er crossed her arms, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

At first, she watched with a "let's see what's going on" attitude, or even with a critical eye. But as she watched, her feelings shifted from anger to awkwardness, and eventually to sighs of regret.

Ma Xiaotao is proud, flamboyant, and a bit unreasonable, but she carries a lot more burdens and has suffered more than the average person.

She was just feeling sentimental, but when she saw the last paragraph of the diary, she was completely stunned.

She had thought that since Lin Ye wanted to treat everyone fairly, he would have to add more dirt on her.

However, she felt that she didn't really have much dirt on herself, but seeing so many people having their dirty secrets exposed here was quite surprising.

At this moment, even with all her confidence, she started to panic a little.

The thought that her dark past might be exposed made Wang Dong'er's face turn pale and red, and she felt extremely anxious.

Xiao Xiao on the other side will be very relaxed, since she doesn't have much dirt on her and isn't afraid of it being dug up.

Xiao Xiao stretched and let out a long sigh of relief.

"There was so much to say today, it was funny one minute and sad the next."

She shook her head slightly. "But Lin Ye wrote quite fairly, including both the good and the bad. I just wonder who will be next?"

She had barely finished speaking when she noticed that Wang Dong'er's expression across from her looked a little off.

She suddenly sensed something, and after reading the last paragraph of the diary, her expression became quite interesting.

She was just wondering who would be next, but it turns out that the person who was so far away was right in front of her.

Next up is Wang Dong'er.

Oh no, she should be called Tang Wutong now.

Speaking of her, one cannot help but mention that thing that readers jokingly call the "Douluo's Number One Chastity Lock."

Let me make this clear first: my "Winter-Tong Separation Theory" is not just nonsense.

Wang Dong'er and Tang Wutong are nominally the same person, but in the readers' minds they are two different species.

Who is Wang Dong'er? She is a spirited girl whose memories are sealed, who struggled alongside Huo Yuhao at the Shrek Academy, and who would risk her life for him.

Tang Wutong? Once her memories of the Divine Realm returned, she became arrogant, constantly quoting "Father said," displaying the quintessential princess syndrome of a privileged second-generation official.

Putting these two together, the contrast is... wow.

Today, let's talk about Tang Wutong and the "warm little cotton-padded jacket" Guardian Mark that her father, Tang San, gave her.

This thing is described in glowing terms in the original story, supposedly for protecting the daughter's safety.

Every reader who has read the book has been disgusted by this stuff.

Let's review the actual performance of this mark, and you'll understand what it truly protects.

First of all, this mark has an extremely strange triggering mechanism.

Back then, Zhongli Wu beat Tang Wutong so badly she was almost scared out of her wits and on the verge of death, but this mark just played dead and didn't make a sound.

Not to mention Long Xiaoyao, he was beaten to a pulp as well.

These two guys have one thing in common: they don't want to have anything going on with Tang Wutong.

But when it comes to Huo Yuhao, the style changes drastically.

A kiss? It'll fly away.

A hug? Soul Shock.

Even a little bit of closeness, and this mark bites back like a mad dog.

The logic behind this imprint is: it doesn't matter if someone else beats you to death, but if your own son-in-law touches you, it's considered a death sentence?

This isn't Guardian Mark; it's clearly a "Chastity Lock"! And the kind that only keeps out internal thieves, not external ones—a low-end product.

This is why the so-called Guardian Mark is called Chastity Lock.

Tell me, let any person with a sound mind judge, if this isn't Chastity Lock, what is it?

What's the most amazing thing? It's the time-limited nature of this lock.

Huo Yuhao married Tang Wutong; this is a mystery.

They ascended to the Divine Realm together, but this lock is still not unlocked.

This has created a bizarre situation where she is "nominally a married woman, but has actually remained a virgin for many years after marriage."

In the end, Huo Yuhao had to rack his brains to figure out a way to solve it.

I just want to ask Tang San, as a father, how much do you really want your daughter to live a life of widowhood?

When Xiao Wu gave birth to her second child, Tang Wulin, how many years had Tang Wutong been married to Huo Yuhao? There hadn't been a single sign of pregnancy.

This lock not only confines his chastity, but also Huo Yuhao's dignity as a normal man, right?

The saying "Tang San leashed Huo Yuhao's dog" may sound harsh, but it makes sense.

The entire ordeal in the lower realm, from sealing her memories to Divine Sense, and then planting this mark, was a script orchestrated by Tang San as a "father-in-law inspecting his son-in-law." Tang Wutong was, from beginning to end, a puppet being pushed around by her father.

Having discussed this famous lock, let's take a look at some of Tang Wutong's most "highlight" moments.

The first one that must be mentioned is the "Xu Yunhan Incident".

This is a hurdle no matter where you put it.

Huo Yuhao was tricked by Ju Zi, leaving behind his son Xu Yunhan.

It's true that Huo Yuhao was in the wrong, but what was the situation at the time? Huo Yuhao was in dire straits, Ju Zi held great power. If this child didn't handle things well, it could trigger a full-scale war in the Sun Moon Empire, resulting in even more deaths.

Moreover, Huo Yuhao didn't intend to hide it.

What happened to Tang Wutong? She didn't listen to a single explanation, or even exchange a glance with him, and simply turned around and went back to the Divine Realm.

This behavior truly takes "princess syndrome" to the extreme.

If it were Wang Dong'er during her memory-sealing period, do you think she would have acted this way?

Wang Dong'er was willing to die for Huo Yuhao in Heaven-and-Earth Valley of Love Inquiry; that life-or-death friendship was as fragile as a sheet of paper to Tang Wutong.

The arrogance that could be suppressed with a simple "My father said" directly deterred many fans who initially liked Wang Dong'er as a character.

The second point of contention is her "superiority complex as a Divine Realm".

After regaining his memory, he sees everyone as an ant.

When talking to Soul Master in the lower realms, the "My dad is God King" filter is so strong it's almost shoved into their faces.

Previously, Wang Dong'er and Huo Yuhao fought side by side and were equals. Now? It's become "a princess from the Divine Realm marrying down."

Before making your own judgments, always remember what your father said.

This kind of love-obsessed mentality, dependent on patriarchy, is really hard to like.

She seemed to have forgotten that without Huo Yuhao's battles in the lower realms, and without the good fortune gained from those near-death experiences, it would be questionable whether she, as a princess of the Divine Realm, could even remain peacefully.

The third point of contention, and the most difficult to defend, is the issue of vested interests after "Wang Qiu'er's sacrifice".

To test Huo Yuhao, Tang San separated a wisp of Tang Wutong's Divine Sense, which transformed into the Three-Eyed Golden Lion Wang Qiu'er.

Wang Qiu'er truly loved Huo Yuhao, and in the end, she sacrificed herself to save him, giving up her life.

And what happened? The person died, and all the benefits—the unforgettable love, the bloodline of the Emperor Auspicious Beast, and even Huo Yuhao's feelings for Wang Qiu'er —were all happily accepted by Tang Wutong after she returned.

It's like someone got into a top college for you, and then the school says the person is gone, and your student status is now yours.

Tang Wutong gained deep affection and strength without giving anything in return.

No wonder readers are complaining that Huo Yuhao's "only true love" persona has completely collapsed.

Huo Yuhao clearly had feelings for Wang Qiu'er, but in the end, he gave them all to Tang Wutong.

This isn't love; it's clearly a meticulously planned "resource recycling" scheme by Tang San.
