After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

Pan Hongyu didn't want everyone to lose too quickly, but unfortunately, everyone made their moves without leaving any room for maneuver, and after thinking for a while, she came up with no solution.

All she could say was, "I'm married."

Everyone then broke their fingers again.

Yin Xiangming felt he had already spoken more than he should have in a day... He said awkwardly, "I've never had a romantic relationship."

Upon hearing this, only Pan Hongyu and Ji Wan broke their fingers.

Deng Lingxuan: "What? I actually have an aunt?" She didn't even know that, and then she just asked it so bluntly.

Ji Wan: "Uh. I used to have a girlfriend... but we broke up."

He scratched his face. It wasn't something he really wanted to bring up, but one should be honest when playing games, and as an unknown extra, he shouldn't be able to start a scandal by saying something like this, right?

"Oh." Deng Lingxuan didn't really care at all; she was just asking casually.

When it was Ji Wan's turn, he thought about it for a while with a troubled expression, and then said, "Do I have an electrician's license?"

Everyone reluctantly broke off their fingers.

What a loss! Playing this game with elders always leads to situations where you lack the life experience of your seniors. The wedding was an example, and now the electrician's license is another.

This is the decisive game for Deng Lingxuan.

Deng Lingxuan said, "I got my nails done!"

As a result, Yin Xiangming, Ye Sanqing, and Pei Canxing were eliminated at the same time.

Ye Sanqing: "Tsk."

She genuinely found manicures inconvenient and wasn't used to them, so she never got them done. Who would have thought she'd be ruined by something like this!

Deng Lingxuan was a little happy to see that she had lost, and she gave Ye Wanyin a high five in return.

Ye Wanyin: Oh my god, my hand hurts so much!

But she still smiled. No matter what, being able to defeat Ye Sanqing was a good thing!

Zhu Song reminded him at the right moment: "The loser has to accept the punishment."

"Huh? Director, didn't you just say there would be no punishment?" Pei Canxing was the first to protest.

"I won't be punished, but game-related punishments are a different matter," Zhu Song said without a trace of shame. "You can discuss the punishments yourselves; I won't interfere, but I still suggest keeping them within the scope of the game."

Ye Wanyin glanced at everyone's broken fingers and made up her mind. "I suggest that the winner decide together... Oh, the winner is Teacher Sheng. Then why don't we let Teacher Sheng decide?"

She wouldn't call Sheng Hanyu "Little Sheng," but she did back down a step.

Apart from the three who lost, the other three had the same score, except for Sheng Hanyu who had one more point.

The two elders were naturally easygoing and had no objections. Even if Deng Lingxuan had objections, Ye Wanyin suppressed them.

"Sure," Sheng Hanyu laughed. "It's finally my day to shine!"

Pei Canxing cooperated with him, saying, "Go easy on me, I'm terrified."

Ye Sanqing smiled without saying a word, while Yin Xiangming was filled with unease.

"How about this," Sheng Hanyu said after thinking for a moment, "each of you three can do one thing for me, and that will be enough."

“I ordered my cousin to pour out the water for me to wash my feet!” he said to Pei Canxing first.

Pei Canxing readily agreed when he heard it was such a small matter.

Ye Wanyin was a little disappointed. That's it? Then Ye Sanqing's punishment probably won't be too severe.

Sigh, if only I could get first place, I would at least make Ye Sanqing look bad.

"As for Xiaoming... Xiaoming, teach me how to burn firewood. I think you did a pretty good job today," Sheng Hanyu said.

Yin Xiangming: Huh? I can fulfill this request without the game punishment...

However, he knew that the other party was probably willing to let him go, so he quickly nodded in agreement.

I never thought that burning firewood would come in handy one day!

Yin Xiangming has become a little more confident today.

“Master Ye… I haven’t decided on your punishment yet. Could we hold off for now?” Sheng Hanyu asked Ye Sanqing.

"How can that be?" Ye Wanyin immediately objected. "That's so unfair! The other two teachers have already been punished, you can't just go unpunished..."

The water-pouring and fire-starting punishments we just witnessed were punishments that everyone could see. If Ye Sanqing doesn't make a decision now, everyone will forget about them in a couple of days.

She was determined to see Ye Sanqing punished!

"Didn't you just say I would decide?" Sheng Hanyu looked at her coldly.

It seems that simply keeping her away isn't enough... This woman seizes every opportunity to make things difficult for Ye Sanqing, but unfortunately, Ye Sanqing doesn't take her seriously at all.

But he was annoyed by it and thought he would have to think of another way to stop the harassment later. For now, he would deal with the immediate problem.

"I didn't doubt Professor Sheng's meaning...it's just..."

Seeing that Ye Wanyin was about to start again, Ye Sanqing finally got a little annoyed. "Xiao Sheng, just say it directly, otherwise everyone will probably be sitting here watching a crying scene tonight."

"Alright then, I was hoping Master Ye would teach me martial arts. It seems Master Ye isn't going to give me that opportunity," Sheng Hanyu joked. Then she added, "I have a few questions for Master Ye. Could you give me fifteen minutes later to ask them privately?"

"What question? Teacher Sheng can ask in front of everyone..." Ye Wanyin quickly said. How could she let them be alone together!

"Are you sure?" Sheng Hanyu looked at her with a half-smile, his expression clearly saying, "You probably don't want everyone to hear this."

Taking advantage of Ye Wanyin's hesitation, Ye Sanqing quickly agreed.

"Sure, ask me anything!"

She actually felt that Sheng Hanyu was just fooling Ye Wanyin. Judging from the way he punished the first two people, it was like he was just playing around. He probably didn't intend to punish them seriously.

Since that's the case, she'll just cooperate and get it over with.

“Okay, then I’ll visit Master Ye after this,” Sheng Hanyu said.

Ye Wanyin thought it might be inconvenient to do it so late at night, but then she thought, this is fine too. She can take this opportunity to spread some rumors about them and make things difficult for Ye Sanqing.

After one round of the game, everyone felt it wasn't very interesting, so they chatted for a while and then dispersed.

Since they had to get up early the next day, everyone went back to their rooms to wash up and rest.

Yin Xiangming rushed to the public bathroom. He knew Ji Wan had already used it, and if Ye Wanyin wanted to use it too, she might not be able to come out for a long time once she went in.

He didn't want to talk to Ye Wanyin any more, so he grabbed his things and rushed inside.

Ye Wanyin wasn't in a hurry to go to the bathroom; she still had to clean the room.

She had run out of points to redeem for bedding and other items. She rummaged through her suitcase and found it full of beautiful clothes, with only one thick coat still usable.

After thinking about it, she decided that instead of accumulating credits or begging Ye Sanqing, she might as well play the victim.

She didn't forget to use the points she had left over from exchanging instant noodles to buy a rag, so she went to clean up first.

Then she discovered that her hands were wrapped in bandages... Helpless, she could only wipe the dust off the bed and then change to new ones. She was in such a miserable state, I'm sure many people in the comments section felt sorry for her!

After everyone else went upstairs, Sheng Hanyu said to Ye Sanqing, "Master Ye, shall I come to visit you now?"

"I don't have any tea to offer you," Ye Sanqing said.

"I have instant coffee, would you like some?" Sheng Hanyu asked.

Ye Sanqing didn't bring any instant drinks, and nodded upon hearing this.

Sheng Hanyu went back inside and brought out a bag. "There are some other drinks too, consider them gifts for visiting."

Ye Sanqing looked around the living room and found that there was no appliance for boiling water. "I'm afraid we'll have to borrow your small electric pot."

"I brought it." Sheng Hanyu held up the bag he was carrying. Inside, besides the electric rice cooker, were several small packages of different colors, which should be the drinks he was talking about.

"Okay, thank you for your trouble." Ye Sanqing watched as he plugged the electric cooker into the socket on his own and then asked to borrow the bathroom to get tap water. Obviously, he didn't need her help anymore, so she simply sat down on the sofa.

The comments section was extremely excited at this moment.

[Straightforward! Straightforward puppies are the cutest!]

[Wow, it's gotten this far in just a short while!]

[This is just CP fans having fun. It's obvious that Xiao Sheng doesn't want to impose any punishment; it's just Ye Wanyin who's making a fuss.]

She's ridiculous, with that smug, petty attitude. She wants others to make decisions, and then she's not satisfied with those decisions. If you ask me, she'd be happy if she could decide the whole world for herself.

Who does she think she is? She doesn't see the princess, but she's got a ton of princess syndrome.

What did Wanwan do wrong? Shouldn't playing games be punished? Sheng Hanyu wants to be the good guy, so Wanwan is the bad guy?

[Hmm...you should see how your idol treats Xiao Sheng before you speak. The idol is clinging to him, and then the fans are criticizing him. It's truly an undeserved disaster.]

He must be interested in Ye Sanqing, otherwise why would he ask to spend time alone with her?

[Let me repeat, this isn't a romance reality show, and it's most likely just a way to appease Ye Wanyin.]

Yes, if there really is to be any punishment, you all have something to say.

[It's inappropriate for a man and a woman to be alone together in a room late at night!]

With so many people watching... is this what you call being lonely? I think it's quite lively.

Sheng Hanyu knew this wasn't the best approach, but openly visiting someone's living room under the camera's gaze was better than suggesting a clandestine meeting in a place where they couldn't be filmed.

After he finished his work, he handed the coffee to Ye Sanqing, saying, "I only brought instant coffee because it's not convenient here. Please don't mind, Master Ye, it's hot."

Ye Sanqing looked at the steam rising from the cup and said, "Speak, what questions do you have for me?"

"Was the person you broke off your engagement with Cheng Yanye?" Sheng Hanyu asked directly.

"Yes. But to be specific, we weren't engaged. Let's just call it an annulment." Ye Sanqing explained, "The engagement wasn't that serious, but to avoid trouble, I simply broke it off. Their marriage is another matter."

“Good, it’s fine to back out.” Sheng Hanyu nodded. “Also, what is your family’s attitude towards Ye Wanyin?” Although it wasn’t that important, he needed to know this in order to decide how far he should go with Ye Wanyin.

"It's an attitude of indifference," Ye Sanqing said. "Personally, I hope she never appears in front of me again."

My older sister mentioned this before, but it's definitely impossible for the two families to get along amicably.

Moreover, she also had some doubts. Although Ye Wanyin did not look like a member of the Ye family, she did not look like her adoptive parents or Ye Kening either.

Besides, her adoptive parents and family members are all normal people; it's impossible for a Ye Wanyin to suddenly appear out of nowhere due to a genetic mutation.

Otherwise, we should take Ye Wanyin's hair to her adoptive parents' home for a DNA test.

There may be more to the story than meets the eye back then, and it's not convenient to say too much about it now.

She was very clear about the Ye family's attitude; at most, it was just that Ye Tian and Ye Siqing were reluctant to part with them. But their words didn't carry weight...

"I understand. Are you sure they'll get married?" Sheng Hanyu asked again, remembering how Ye Wanyin could even trick Cheng Yanye, and how she acted so flirtatiously towards her and her cousin.

"I'm not sure if she's causing you any trouble?" Ye Sanqing sighed, knowing what Ye Wanyin meant.

Although she couldn't control Ye Wanyin, it was still very annoying for her to embarrass herself outside while using the Ye family's name.

"Not really, I can handle it," Sheng Hanyu said. He had no further questions, and then got up to take his leave.

It seems that Ye Wanyin just keeps using the same tricks, which he can handle. He should remind Pei Canxing to be careful not to get led astray.

"I have a bad feeling... Be careful," Ye Sanqing warned.
