When Qiangzi's grandmother heard that she was going to jail, she sat down on the ground and started throwing a tantrum.
"I'm so old, I'd rather die than go to jail!"
Dai Qing looked at her coldly and said slowly, "You're already so old, wouldn't it be a waste to just kill you?"
"Aren't you all obsessed with money? I'll hire some really good lawyers and keep suing you until I get compensation."
"If you can't afford to pay, we'll enforce it. We'll take your son and daughter-in-law's salaries and forcibly auction off your house..."
"I'll only do one thing for the rest of my life: chase after your whole family and bite them."
Qiangzi's father originally thought that sending his mother to jail would be the end of the matter.
Didn't expect to lose money?
He was furious and kicked his mother, yelling, "Look at you! Why did you take that child away in the first place!"
The police immediately pinned Qiangzi's father down.
Qiangzi's grandmother sat on the ground and cried, "I've devoted my whole life to my son and grandson, and now my son is hitting me. I'd rather die..."
Dai Qing wanted to enjoy the view a little longer, but the police wouldn't allow it.
She left the police station.
He went outside and sent a message to Su Mian, saying that everything was going smoothly.
Unexpectedly, Su Mian was still awake at this time and immediately replied to the message.
Su Mian: "Her son and daughter-in-law aren't innocent either. Check if your daughter has any injuries. Sue them for child abuse. Once they're in jail, have someone go and beat them up!"
Dai Qing thought so too.
It all feels like a dream.
She simply did what a normal person should do, without harming anyone, yet she received such great blessings, finding her daughter who had been lost for many years.
I'm deeply grateful and will do my best to help her in the workplace in the future!
-
Su Mian was actually extremely sleepy at this point.
I haven't slept at all while waiting for the results.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and the mother and daughter finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
She put down her phone and prepared to go to sleep.
Suddenly, I heard sounds coming from the next room.
Duan Xuanyu was still awake at this time.
It seems like he's... watching a male streamer's live stream?
The room's soundproofing is only so-so.
The male anchor's voice came through clearly to Su Mian.
"What's the most important thing for a man in the 21st century? Finding a wife."
"Many men lack conversational skills, pushing away the women they like and ending up alone."
"For example, when you say goodnight to each other at night, if you just say goodnight directly to her, it will seem dry and perfunctory, and you definitely won't be able to win her over."
"But if you lower your voice, slow down your speech—yes, use 0.8 times your normal speaking speed, in a low, gentle tone—and say, 'Goodnight,'..."
"She'll definitely find you very attractive."
What is this garbage...?
Duan Xuanyu wouldn't actually learn it, would he?
Just as I was thinking this, Duan Xuanyu's message popped up.
Su Mian opened the app with a trembling heart.
Duan Xuanyu: " Su Mian, goodnight (0.8x speed, low and gentle)."
Good news, it's a purely text-based, hand-typed version.
But is it possible that the 0.8x speed tutorial they provided was actually spoken?
He typed it all by hand and even added a note saying "0.8x speed," does he mean he wants her to read it at 0.8x speed?
Su Mian replied, "Hehehe!"
Duan Xuanyu: " Su Mian, what does this mean? I don't understand."
Su Mian: "Awesome! Awesome! Awesome (2x speed)."
Duan Xuanyu: " Su Mian, you're amazing! You can do everything."
Su Mian didn't reply.
She was so tired that she fell asleep while holding her phone.
Duan Xuanyu, who was next door, waited for a while but didn't receive a reply, so he softly said, "Goodnight."
She's amazing; she can do everything. She was just as amazing back in Northern Liang.
If she hadn't taught him so many things, he wouldn't be here today.

Filming continued early the next morning.
Duan Hongxu arrived two hours early!
He was so excited because he was going to play the emperor today!
That's right, his ancestors played rebels, but he himself can play emperors!
This reversed Heavenly Gang is so cool!
He had already donned the dragon robe.
However, the dragon crown on his head was always crooked, as if a rope at the back wasn't tied tightly enough...
Suddenly, he noticed a hair tie on Duan Xuanyu's wrist.
Duan Hongxu, one hand on the dragon crown, stretched out his other hand to Duan Xuanyu: "Give me that rubber band."
Duan Xuanyu glanced at him indifferently. "No."
Duan Hongxu: "Then what's that in your hand? Don't think I can't see it just because it's hidden in your sleeve."
Duan Xuanyu looked down at the hair tie on his wrist, his gaze softening. "This is the leash Su Mian used to tie my dog."
"..." Duan Hongxu was speechless. "Enough! Stop licking her! Her heart is like a dick, the more you lick it, the harder it gets!"
Duan Xuanyu exchanged a glance with him, then suddenly laughed, "Do you know what else this rope can do besides tying me up?"
Duan Hongxu: "What?"
Duan Xuanyu: "Come closer, I'll tell you."
Duan Hongxu immediately went over.
Duan Xuanyu took off the hair tie, grabbed the cherry, quickly pulled the hair tie, and aimed it at Duan Hongxu's mouth.
Snap!
The cherry on the hair tie hit the target precisely.
Duan Xuanyu's eyes crinkled slightly. "Didn't expect that, did you? I can still shut you up."
"..." Duan Hongxu covered his mouth, gritting his teeth, "You love-struck idiot! You tyrant! Even if you went back in time, you might not be able to change your tragic fate!"
Duan Xuanyu wasn't worried at all. "Impossible."
After Su Mian finished her business, the two of them went back together...
Then he would follow the records in the history books and kill all the rebels who were shaking the foundation of the Northern Liang and plotting against him.
-
Soon, everyone was in position, and filming began.
The plot of the next episode is as follows: Although Su Mian does not want to marry the emperor, she is forced to become his empress. She can only secretly meet with the man she truly loves in the palace, who is also the rebel Duan Xuanyu.
When the rebel, disguised as a guard, came to meet her, the emperor suddenly arrived to catch them in the act.
But Su Mian successfully resolved the crisis in the end... The details of how she resolved it are not explained; that's where she had to improvise.
As filming began, Duan Hongxu moved quickly, his face beaming with barely suppressed excitement!
Catching them in the act!
He finally had the chance to openly and legitimately slap his ancestors and great-grandmother!
Although he still admires his ancestors, they really need to be taught a lesson for their obsessive love-struck nature!
When they got there, he attacked them from both sides, beating them senseless until they were crawling on the ground!
We've finally arrived.
Snap!
He kicked the door open!
Inside the room, Su Mian and Duan Xuanyu sat on the bed, both looking at him calmly, showing no sign of panic at being caught in the act.
Duan Hongxu pointed at Duan Xuanyu and questioned Su Mian, "Who is he? Who is he?! Empress, tell me who he is!"
Su Mian replied calmly, "He is the male consort I have chosen for the Emperor."
Duan Hongxu had the curse words on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them back abruptly, saying only, "Huh?"
Su Mian smiled and nodded, "From now on, the two of us will serve you together."
"Am I virtuous? Hmm? Speak."
Duan Hongxu: "..."
[Hahaha, I laughed so hard I almost fell out of bed!]
[This is only human nature.]
[Okay, okay, I've learned something. If my husband finds out about my boyfriend in the future, I'll say the same thing!]
[You big-socked bastards, listen to what you're saying! Are you even speaking human language?]
Duan Hongxu took a deep breath; he had almost forgotten that he was playing the emperor.
He's about to use the emperor's power to teach them a lesson!
