Soft, warm, and fragrant; easily pushed over; the obsessive demon king becomes addicted to pampering

Ke Qing quickly became a hot topic of conversation during leisure time in the manor.

Several maids gathered together, chattering amongst themselves.

One of the maids couldn't help but chuckle: "Ke Qing followed the master and his group to the back mountain to see Xiao Mei, and she was so frightened that she fainted! That's not all! She even lost control of her bladder! You don't know, when she was carried down the mountain, the smell was so pungent and overwhelming, it was nauseating!"

"The male servants who carried her down the mountain also suffered a lot!"

"Haha, yes, yes! Nobody wanted to go forward back then, except for Xiaoxian, who was kind-hearted and willing to take care of her," another person chimed in.

Then someone else made a sarcastic remark: "Didn't she always like to pretend to be innocent in front of her husband, putting on the appearance of a pure lily? Now that this scandal has happened, I want to see how she will salvage her image."

"That's right, exactly! In order to gain the master's attention, she disguises herself as a pure lily all day long, trying to attract the master's attention in this way."

"What a pity! The master never even glanced at her, and even ordered all the lilies in the manor to be eradicated. Isn't that the most direct and ruthless warning to her?"

"Haha...that's absolutely hilarious!"

"Hahaha... Ouch! My stomach hurts from laughing so much..."

The group intensified their mockery and ridicule, their words becoming increasingly sharp and harsh.

The constant jeers and mockery from all around were like blades, piercing Ke Qing's heart.

Her once pretty face turned pale and then red, filled with shame.

It's all because of that little bitch Tong Guang! If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have become everyone's laughing stock!

Thinking of this, Ke Qing clenched her fists tightly, her resentment towards Tong Guang growing stronger.

Are you all very free?

These words struck like a thunderclap, startling the group of people who had been whispering amongst themselves. They stopped talking in astonishment and looked toward the source of the sound.

A somber-looking Aunt Qin stood not far away, her stern gaze sweeping over them. Aunt Qin was over fifty years old and slightly overweight.

Aunt Qin has worked diligently at the manor for many years, and has earned a certain prestige and influence through her experience and wisdom.

At that moment, when the maids realized that the speaker was Aunt Qin, they immediately scattered and went about their business.

Someone muttered quietly, "Why is Aunt Qin back now? Didn't she take leave and go back to her hometown?"

"Who knows? Stop talking, or we'll get yelled at again."

Xiaoxian walked quickly to Keqing's side and gently patted her shoulder.

With a concerned look, he asked, "Are you alright?"

She clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with anger. "They're just gossipy women; don't take their words to heart."

Xiaoxian had always regarded Keqing as her best friend, and now seeing her being ridiculed by everyone, she felt bad.

Ke Qing slowly raised her head, forcing a smile on her pale face, "Xiao Xian, thank you for what happened last night!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxian quickly waved her hand, "No need to thank me, we're best friends!"

Ke Qing nodded heavily. In the manor, Xiao Xian was the only one who truly cared about her!

……

Shortly after breakfast, Bai Wanning, with a smile on his face, invited the girl, "Tongguang, if you're free, how about we go out for a stroll together?"

Tong Guang was taken aback for a moment, but quickly nodded. She hadn't really been anywhere, and she knew very little about the lifestyles of modern human society. She might as well take this opportunity to take a good look.

In the garage, Bai Wanning skillfully drove the beige luxury sports car slowly out of the manor.

The car traveled along the winding mountain road. The white and beige interior complemented each other, creating a warm and sophisticated atmosphere.

Sitting quietly in the back seat, Tong Guang gazed at the ever-changing scenery outside the window. Rolling hills, lush green trees!

Bai Wanning looked at Tong Guang in the back seat through the rearview mirror and suddenly said, "When this car was first launched, Brother Han bought it for me."

Her voice was gentle and calm, without the slightest hint of boasting, as if she were chatting naturally with an old friend she had known for many years.

Upon hearing this, Tong Guang carefully examined the interior of the car, a faint smile blooming on his lips: "It's beautiful, and it suits you very well!"

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let Brother Han buy it!"

"Why?" Tong Guang didn't understand, so he subconsciously asked.

Bai Wanning sighed. "Because it's expensive! I don't want Brother Han to spend too much money on me!"

Tong Guang touched the delicate hand-embroidered flowers on the seat with his fingers, "They're really beautiful!"

"If you like it, I'll ask Brother Han to send you one too!"

She shook her head and said, "No, I'm not very interested in these things, and I can't drive."

The two did not dwell on the topic any further!

Bai Wanning steadily gripped the steering wheel with both hands. After a moment of silence, she finally couldn't help but speak again, breaking the quiet atmosphere in the car.

"Tongguang, I've always been curious, how did you and Han meet?"

"Um... if it's inconvenient, you don't have to say, it's okay!" After a pause, Bai Wanning added understandingly.

All the previous conversations were just a prelude; the questions she's asking now are what she truly wants to know.

In fact, she already knew from the servants that Tong Guang was the woman Si Hanye had personally brought back to the manor.

She just wanted to know what was so special about this woman that could attract Brother Han's attention so much.

What gives her the right to enter Han-gege's private space? What right does she have to live in that house?

Countless complex emotions surged into Bai Wanning's heart: jealousy, dissatisfaction, resentment... like raging flames, they raged and spread in Bai Wanning's heart.

She tried her best to control herself and not let these emotions show, maintaining a gentle and graceful demeanor.

As if anticipating Bai Wanning's question, Tong Guang rested her chin on her hand, her pink eyes gazing at the scenery rushing past the car window.

Her voice was as light and casual as the wind, as if she were saying 'the weather is nice': "It was just an accident, nothing!"

She spoke vaguely, not caring whether Bai Wanning would believe her. In any case, she couldn't possibly tell anyone what had happened; it was a secret she kept to herself.

Besides, even if he told Bai Wanning, Bai Wanning might not believe him, since time travel is such an incredible thing!

Actually, Tong Guang's statement isn't entirely incongruous; she came into this world by a twist of fate.

She was inexplicably bound to the system and encountered Si Hanye, all of which were beyond her expectations.

At least in Tong Guang's view, that is the truth.

Bai Wanning's gaze deepened.

An accident? Was it really all just a coincidence, as she claimed?

What the little girl didn't know was that all the coincidences were actually a premeditated plan by someone...
