A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 10 Going Mad with External Losses

Since marrying Shen Tang, Jia Lan has become a laughing stock in the entire New Atlantis and a disgrace to the nobility.

Not to mention that mermaids are naturally attracted to beautiful things and only like pretty things. Every time he saw Shen Tang's ugly face, he felt disgusted and wanted to vomit. The thought of spending the rest of his life with such an ugly woman made him wish he were dead.

The commotion attracted many passersby who stopped to watch, whispering and discussing among themselves.

"Shen Tang still has the nerve to question Princess Jialan? She should take a good look at herself in the mirror. She's ugly and fat, how could she be worthy of Jialan!"

"But she and Jialan are husband and wife after all. Any female would be angry in this situation..."

"The mermaid's mating season is approaching. If His Highness Jialan doesn't seek out other females, does he really intend to mate with that fat, dead woman?"

"Exactly, they're so fat, it's hard for them to mate."

"With that ugly appearance, which male could bring himself to kiss her? He probably couldn't even stand up."

"Hahahahahaha..."

These malicious and vulgar words caused everyone to burst into laughter.

Hearing these words, Jialan felt even more ashamed. This woman was embarrassing him in every way! Marrying her was the greatest disgrace of his life!

"The thing I regret most in my life is marrying you!"

Jialan clenched her fists, her gaze towards Shen Tang cold and disgusted. "I admit you had strong mental power back then, but things have changed. You're now a complete waste, fat and ugly, and you even dragged me down to this desolate place. If you know what's good for you, you'd better divorce me quickly so I can leave this godforsaken place!"

The vicious curses from all sides might have made Shen Tang, who had just transmigrated, feel embarrassed, but now she was completely unfazed. She calmly said, "I didn't mean to bother you. I just made something and wanted to give it to you to try."

"For me?" Jialan clearly didn't believe it, and the surrounding orcs stopped laughing and looked at the lunchbox in Shen Tang's hand with surprise.

This fat woman's laziness is known throughout the city. When will she learn to cook?
Is he planning to drug someone and kill himself again?

With everyone harboring malicious suspicions, Jialan's expression darkened as she naturally considered this possibility.

However, Shen Tang was unaware of the man's thoughts. When she handed him the lunchbox, Jia Lan seemed to reach out to take it, but the next second he flung it away and, in front of everyone, threw it onto the nearby lawn, spilling meat soup all over the ground.

Shen Tang's expression froze instantly.

Jialan looked down at her with a wicked smile, "How shameless of you! You still want to resort to those despicable methods?"

"I do not have……"

"You dare to do it but not admit it? Can you be any more disgusting? Do you think I'm as stupid as Xiao Jin?" Jia Lan's eyes grew even more disgusted.

No matter how calm Shen Tang was, she was still a shy girl. The grievances she had accumulated over the past few days were about to explode. She bit her lip and said, "If you don't like it, that's fine. I won't bother you anymore."

"Ha, get as far away from me as possible, and don't let me see you again!"

Gu Lianrou reminded her, "Alan, quickly get her to sign the divorce agreement."

Remembering this, Jialan quickly opened the divorce agreement on her personal terminal. This female had suffered such humiliation today; she certainly couldn't go on living like this.

He thought the other party would definitely compromise, but suddenly he heard a cold laugh.

"Want a divorce? Fine, kneel down and beg me."

Jialan thought she had misheard and looked at the woman in front of her in surprise. "What did you say? Say it again?"

The crowd looked on in disbelief. How dare this female talk back?

Shouldn't she be trying her best to please Prince Jialan and win him back?

Shen Tang didn't care about the different looks from the people around her. She looked up coldly at the two of them. So what if this man was her target? She wasn't a pushover. Why should she keep giving him the cold shoulder?

Shen Tang said, enunciating each word clearly, "You want a divorce? Fine, kneel down and beg me now, and I'll sign this divorce agreement for you!"

[Warning! The host has violated the strategy rules, and the male lead Jia Lan's dislike level is trending upwards. Please stop immediately!]

Ignoring everything else, Shen Tang continued to provoke the two adulterers.

"Ha, you won't even kneel down and beg me. You can't even put aside this little bit of pride. I thought you loved this female so much."

Her words directly angered both Jialan and Gu Lian.

Jia Lan's face was ugly, and her eyes were full of sinister anger as she looked at Shen Tang, wishing she could tear her to pieces.

This ugly woman has some nerve, daring to threaten him?

Did they really want to force him to kneel?
That's absolutely disgusting!

The crowd was abuzz with discussion. "Has that ugly woman Shen Tang lost her mind? How dare she say such things to His Highness?"

"It's over. Now His Highness is really going to break ties with her. None of the males want her anymore. She can forget about ever staying in the shelter again."

"Ugly people are always up to no good. They're both wicked and stupid. No wonder they can't win the favor of men."

Shen Tang ignored the gossip and smiled faintly, "When you come begging to me, I'll consider signing a divorce agreement for you. Otherwise, you'll never get rid of me, let alone have a loving relationship with your mistress."

After saying this, Shen Tang strode away in front of everyone.

Rather than exhausting yourself mentally, you might as well go crazy and exhaust others.

Abandon your personal integrity and indulge in a life of immorality!
Gu Lian was so angry she almost ground her teeth to powder. How dare this vile woman call her a mistress? Her hands clenched tightly, her nails digging into her flesh, almost drawing blood, but she felt no pain. The hatred in her heart was almost overwhelming her.

She'll make that bitch pay sooner or later!
Jia Lan frowned. He hadn't expected Shen Tang to leave without bothering him anymore. It was as if she had become a completely different person, which gave him a strange feeling that he couldn't quite explain.

"Captain Jialan, there's someone drunk and causing trouble at the market. You should go and check it out." An orc rushed over, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

Jialan nodded slightly, "Mm."

"Ah Lan, you clearly promised to spend the night with me. Can't we postpone other things?" Gu Lian said pitifully, yet with a unique charm.

Jialan smiled charmingly, "The affairs in the city are more important. Here's the key. You can come to see me anytime you want in the future."

Gu Lian blushed with joy. Jia Lan had actually given her the house key! Wasn't that tacitly acknowledging her as the mistress of the house? The slight unpleasantness in her heart vanished instantly, and she became even more convinced that the handsome and noble man before her was already hers.

Ha, that ugly hag dared to argue with her, how foolish and laughable!
On Jialan Road, I met Shen Li. The man had cascading red hair, a tall and slender figure, and was handsome and charming. He was extremely conspicuous in the bustling city and I spotted him at a glance.

He saw Shen Li walking around the stalls, stopping and starting, seemingly looking for something to buy. He raised an eyebrow in surprise. This fox had always looked down on these low-class trinkets, so why was he browsing the market today?
"What are you buying?" Jialan walked over to greet him and patted him on the shoulder.

Shen Li said, "Shen Tang said she wanted to find some cooking seasonings, so I'm here to buy some for her."

"Cooking? Seasonings? That fat woman?" He could understand each word individually, but how could they be put together so incomprehensible?
Shen Li smiled and said, "You didn't receive the meat soup she sent? It tasted really good. I've been in the palace for so many years and I've never eaten such delicious food."

Jialan scoffed, "You really believe that fat woman cooked it herself? She's so stupid she can't even tell the difference between sugar and salt. She must have bought it from outside and pretended it was homemade."

Shen Li sighed softly, "At least she has the intention, which is better than before."

"Ha, that fat woman isn't putting on an act for the first time. She pretends to be gentle and considerate, but who knows what she's up to? Next time you let your guard down, she'll secretly drug you, and I'll throw that meat soup away." Jia Lan sneered, her mood becoming increasingly irritable as she recalled those past troubles.

Shen Li's expression turned cold upon hearing this, but the meat soup was truly delicious, leaving him with an unforgettable aftertaste.

He said regretfully, "She didn't drug you this time, so it's a real pity you didn't get to try it."

Jialan wondered if the meat soup she had thrown away was really that delicious.

This fox is very picky; if you can get his approval, the taste must be excellent.

Jialan's expression remained unchanged, but she felt a pang of regret in her heart.

However, he absolutely refused to believe that the fat woman had made the soup herself. He would definitely try all the signature dishes in the city's restaurants one day and see how she could still make up such a clumsy lie!

……

Shen Tang felt refreshed on her way back. It was clear that seducing men was not a suitable activity for a wicked woman like her.

The system issued a ruthless warning:
[Host, don't forget, if you can't win over the male lead, you won't be able to return to the present world.]

Upon realizing this, Shen Tang's smile froze.

Oh no, she was so busy cursing that she must have gotten the mermaid's favorability rating down to negative numbers.

But unexpectedly, the system suddenly issued a notification sound the next second.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Male lead Jia Lan's favorability has increased by 10!]

A short while later, the system emitted another delightful announcement.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Male lead Jia Lan's favorability has increased by 20!]

Shen Tang asked in bewilderment, "?"

"System, are you malfunctioning?"

She embarrassed that arrogant mermaid, and it actually increased his affection level? Could he be a hidden masochist who enjoys being scolded?
